"Mother, don't cry! Are the good days still to come?"

Qian Shuying's life was not easy, her wife Zhou Ping'an died 25 years ago.

Fortunately, Zhou Dagui was already in his 20s at that time.

She lived frugally to marry Dagui a daughter-in-law. Although her life was very poor, the family would not starve to death.

Erfen is also a girl, and she doesn't need much money to marry someone.

Back then when Erfen married Ye Qingshan, Qian Shuying saw that although Ye Qingshan was poor, he was a handsome young man, and he was still good at work.

I thought that although the Ye family was a little poor, Erfen would at least not be hungry after marrying.

What I didn't expect was that after Erfen got married, life was actually more difficult than when she was in her mother's house.

A few years ago, I had to rely on my natal family to save some things from the teeth to support them.

The old Zhou's family used to be reluctant to buy a catty of meat during the Chinese New Year. Unexpectedly, Er Fen and his wife had just separated from Lao Ye's family for two years, and the meat they brought back was twenty catties and twenty catties.

Erfen and his family have finally come to the end of their hardships.

"Mother, I'll go back after I send my eldest brother and sister-in-law back. I have to go to the county seat tomorrow morning."

"Nanhuai's mother-in-law and her family of three are leaving in the second grade of junior high. I have to go back and help clean up."

"Let's go? Where are you going! You just got married, and there are two big tofu factories left, so where are you going?"

Qian Shuqian asked in surprise. In her eyes, the tofu factory is already a big factory, and even the workers earn 45 yuan a month!

"Mother, Nanhuai's father-in-law is doing big business abroad, and he wants to take Nanhuai, his mother-in-law and Wen'er abroad to Singapore."

"Overseas? Could it be that his overseas business is bigger than the tofu factory? And Xinhapo? I heard that the name is not as big as Xigou Village?"

Ye Qingshan couldn't help but smile when he heard his mother-in-law talking.

After Zhou Haisheng came back, he rushed into his daughter-in-law's room and didn't come back for more than two months. He finally met his daughter-in-law at Leng's mother's wedding yesterday, but he still had to help Leng's family with other things, so he didn't have time. Have a good talk with your wife.

"Daughter-in-law, look."

Zhou Haisheng took out a stack of Great Unity from his pocket as he spoke.

His daughter-in-law He Hongxia immediately opened her mouth when she saw so much money:

"Haisheng, where did you get so much money? Didn't you let dad bring back all the money from the previous month and a half?"

He Hongxia asked, and couldn't help counting one by one in her hand, a total of 145 yuan!

"The extra 1 yuan is the year-end bonus given by Nanhuai's wife. Our father and mother each have 100!"

"real!"

He Hongxia put away the money and counted it again.

Then he hugged Haisheng and kissed again and again.

"Haisheng, what are your plans for the money?"

Hearing his wife's question, Zhou Haisheng immediately said:

"Our family is rich now, and we will send the harvest to school in March."

"Fengshou has been studying two years later than his peers. In those two years, the family couldn't afford a penny. This time, he has to go to school first."

"Then I discussed with my parents. We have lived in this house for more than 50 years, which is older than both of us. I thought about waiting for the spring to pile up this old house and build it again, and build three rooms like my uncle and the others. With a big red tile house like ours, we will be able to stand up in the village by then."

"When the house is built, we will have another girl, and then we will have both sons and daughters."

The people in the old Zhou family are good at this. All they want is to be able to eat and wear warm clothes when they are hungry. The most fulfilling thing in life is to keep their wives and children warm on the kang.

So no matter whether I was poor or starving in the past, or now I have a stable income and improved life, I have never complained.

After hearing Zhou Haisheng's words, He Hongxia was also full of expectations for the future.

People in the old Zhou family are more and more hopeful about the future.

When Ye Qingshan returned to Leng's house, the family had already eaten and gone to bed early.

In the past two days, the family has been organizing the wedding, the tofu factory is on vacation, and they have been busy for the New Year. They have been exhausted for several days.

When Ye Qingshan returned to his hut, Tuesday Fen was sitting under the lamp waiting for him.

Seeing Ye Qingshan came back, he went to the stove to bring out the hot rice in the pot.

Ye Qingshan said to his daughter-in-law while eating:

"Er Fen, go to bed early after eating, I have to get up early tomorrow morning."

"I'll go to the county with you after I finish cleaning up the house tomorrow!"

"Nuan girl gave us so much money, and my in-laws even gave us dividends from the tofu factory. We can't take other people's money for nothing."

"Go to the county to see and buy some rare things for them to bring."

Tuesday Fen has never seen much in the world, and in her perception, delicious food and nice clothes are the rarest things.

But in this day and age, even the clothes and pastries bought in department stores in the county don't cost much.

Shaohua's business is so big, how could he be interested in such a thing?

After tossing and turning all night, Tuesday Fen didn't even think about what to buy for her mother-in-law and the others.

At four o'clock the next day, Ye Qingshan got up lightly.

Tuesday Fen still woke up, she also wanted to help Ye Qingshan work together, but Ye Qingshan pushed her back:

"You've been exhausted for the past few days. I can do this work myself."

Tuesday Fen was not too polite, after a night of insomnia, she finally felt a little drowsy:

"Okay, call me when you make breakfast!"

When Ye Qingshan came out of the yard, he went to hug the frame and prepare to go to the stove to make a fire and make paste. It's Chinese New Year, and he had to put up the Spring Festival couplets before the sun came out, so that he could win a good fortune in the coming year.

But when he walked to the kitchen with Chai Gang in his arms, he saw Shao Hua walking in too.

"My dear, why did you wake up so early?"

Shao Hua, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes and gold-rimmed glasses, smiled slightly:

"It's Chinese New Year today, and there will definitely be a lot of work at home, so I'll get up early to help with some work."

"What will you do?"

Ye Qingshan asked jokingly while lighting the fire.

In his mind, Shaohua should be the type of person who sits in a western restaurant and cuts steak while drinking high-end red wine.

But Shaohua went out with a bucket to pick up a bucket of water and poured it into the pot.

Just looking at the posture of working like this, it can be seen that I have been doing it for many years.

"When I was in Leng Mansion, what kind of work did you not know how to do?"

Hearing Shao Qi mention the matter of being a house slave in the Leng Mansion, Ye Qingshan sighed:

"That's right, it would be nice to survive at that time, they are all evil old landlords!"

"Brother Qingshan, you can't say that. Back then, Wen'er and her grandparents were kind to our slaves."

"At least they buried my parents, and they treated me very well. Except for not letting me find the eldest lady, everything else is very good."

Ye Qingshan knew that Shao Hua was a person who valued love and righteousness, so he asked again:

"I heard from Nanhuai's mother that you and your mother-in-law went back to look for your parents' graves a few days ago. Did you find them?"
