Crossing the Book of Eighty Years: The Sweet Daughter-in-law of a Mountain Man

Seeing clearly that it was Xia Ning, his tone suddenly became bad: "How are you walking? It's such a big road, what are you doing in the middle?"

Xia Ning saw clearly that the person opposite was Zhou Shu, and asked, "Uncle Zhou, what do you mean? The road is so big, can't you see people?"

Zhou Shu had been thinking about things just now, and he took the wrong path.

So, when he saw the person, he was suddenly stunned and quickly turned the bike around.

But it was still a step too late. His wrist was inserted into the rough wall, and his fingers were directly scratched by the rough walls without lime.

There was blood oozing out.

Zhou Shu glanced at his hands, didn't answer Xia Ning's words, and rode away on his bicycle.

Xia Ning thought he was strange.

But Xia Ning wouldn't ask about Zhou Shu, so he turned around and rushed to the factory.

Anyway, what happened to Zhou Shu had nothing to do with her.

……

Today, Zhou Junren went to town to sell fish, right next to Zhou Junbin.

With the help of Zhou Junbin, the eldest brother in business, most of the people who came to buy meat bought some fish.

The fish sold very quickly, and soon half of it was sold.

Zhou Junren took a small bucket and filled it with a large grass carp.

Zhou Junbin asked: "Why did you put this fish there?"

Zhou Junren said: "I don't know if Xia Ning will pass by here. This fish is going to be given to her."

Zhou Junbin nodded and looked to the side, his father, who had been in no state since morning.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Zhou Junren was busy killing fish, so he didn't know what happened to his father.

Asked: "What's wrong?"

Zhou Junbin said: "His mood seems to be very wrong."

Zhou Junren: "I don't know anymore. He has been very wrong since last night. I asked him, but he didn't say anything. Anyway, all he thinks about now is Hu Xiuzhi and his daughter. I don't want to ask too many questions. I'm worried. I will die before him."

His father is now at this age, and the love between his children is even stronger than that of their young people.

He was really nice to Hu Xiuzhi. Just after catching the fish yesterday, he immediately stole a fish and left on his bicycle.

No need to think about it, he also knows what his father is doing.

He was so tired last night that he didn't even have a mouthful of hot porridge when he got home.

Could he be angry?

Anyway, he hadn't cared about why Zhou Shu was in a bad mood since last night.

Anyway, he knew that his father was in a bad mood, and it had nothing to do with him. It must have something to do with Hu Xiuzhi and his daughter.

Zhou Junbin also fell silent after listening.

His dad is like this, and most of the time, he doesn't know what to say.

Zhou Shu helped his second brother deliver the fish to town in the morning, and he smoked one cigarette, two, three... a pack of twenty cigarettes, and as he smoked, there was only one shell left.

Zhou Shu stood up and said to Zhou Junbin and Zhou Junren: "I have something to go out for a while."

Zhou Junren has no objection. Anyway, his father has never done anything to help him since then.

He still has to rely on himself.

Zhou Junbin watched Zhou Shu leave on his bicycle.

He thought he would catch a fish before leaving, but that didn't happen.

Zhou Shu thought for a long time and finally went to the store, but instead of going directly to the store, he asked people nearby if they had seen women often eating at that noodle soup shop.

As a result, when he asked, someone said to him: "Why not? The girl who had an accident at school last time went to the store to eat noodle soup every morning. You came a little late, and she had just finished eating and left."

Zhao Min came to the store to eat noodle soup, and he came here to eat every day?

A bowl of noodle soup costs at least a few cents to a dollar.

Where did Zhao Min get so much money?

The things they make cannot be sold.

Just when Zhou Shu was thinking about things, another sentence from the man rang in his ears: "They say what kind of people are like, that girl, I thought it was a pity that that kind of thing happened before, but now I feel, Everything happens for a certain reason. Someone like her who is lazy and loves to cause trouble and quarrels is really bad."

Zhou Shu asked: "Why do you say that?"

"What's wrong with what I said? What I said is true. A girl eats it every day, and her mother comes over too."

Zhou Shu's expression suddenly became much colder.

When the man said this, he seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly stopped, looked at Zhou Shu and asked, "Who are you that girl? Why do you look familiar to me? Are you his father?"

Zhou Shu then said: "I am her stepfather."

After hearing this, the man was silent for a moment, then laughed and said: "So you are her father, then you think I didn't say anything."

Zhou Shu said: "Sister, tell me whatever you see. I just want to know the truth."

The eldest sister glanced at Zhou Shu and said quickly: "It's hard to say, it's hard to say, just go and see for yourself."

Zhou Shu wanted to find out for himself whether Hu Xiuzhi had betrayed him, but he came out for a long time and found nothing else.

In addition to what the elder sister just said to him, Hu Xiuzhi did not come out today.

Hu Xiuzhi was waiting for Zhou Shu to send her fish at home.

After all, Zhou Shu said yesterday that he would bring fish to her today.

So she kept working at home and waiting. When it was almost eleven o'clock, Hu Xiuzhi couldn't wait any longer.

Why hasn’t Zhou Shu come yet at this hour?

Are the fish sold out or the fish are not sold?

Hu Xiuzhi thought for a while, got up and prepared to go to the market.

When she came to the market, Zhou Junren had already closed the stall, and all the fish he brought were sold out.

The fish in his bucket was specially reserved for Xia Ning.

His father smoked a pack of cigarettes in the morning and just went for a loop somewhere. When he came back, he bought another pack of cigarettes and squatted on the roadside and smoked non-stop.

The last time he saw his dad smoking endlessly was because his mom passed away.

Later, he didn't see his father in this situation anymore, and now he didn't know what to say.

Zhou Junren looked at Zhou Junbin.

Zhou Junbin said: "It's useless, just let him suck it. If I ask him anything, he won't say anything."

Zhou Junren said: "Then I won't care and send this fish to Xia Ning."

Zhou Junbin said: "I still have some pig intestines here. You can send them to Xia Ning by the way. She has good craftsmanship and makes them very delicious."

Zhou Junren nodded, carrying the bucket and another string of sausages.

Just as he turned around, he saw Hu Xiuzhi.

Hu Xiuzhi looked at the thing in Zhou Junren's hand, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Second brother, did your dad ask you to send it to me? No need, I'm here."

As she spoke, she reached out to take what Zhou Junren was holding.

Zhou Junren had no intention of giving it to her: "You misunderstood, this is for Xia Ning."

Hu Xiuzhi's expression changed instantly: "Second brother, what did you just say? Is this fish for Xia Ning? Are these pig intestines also for Xia Ning?"
