() Zhou Yao smiled: "I don't understand, and I don't have this kind of experience." It's just that I am a child in the village, I grew up in the countryside, and my grandmother used to say this in the vegetable garden, and I just remembered it."

The old lady nodded, liked Zhou Jin more and more, and said to Zhou Jin: "Sima Shu is busy with work, day and night, his mother is running around all the year round, and my old lady is left alone at home, so she can only tidy up the vegetable garden and chat to relieve loneliness."

When Zhou Jia heard this, she felt sad, and she wanted to promise the old lady that she would often come to talk to her in the future to relieve her boredom. However, she couldn't tell the old lady because of Sima Shu, she couldn't come.

The old lady didn't know that Sima Shu broke up with Zhou Yao. She looked at Zhou Yao dumbfounded and asked her, "What are you thinking?"

Zhou Jia couldn't reply, saw a jujube tree in the corner of the vegetable garden, and replied: "Seeing this jujube tree reminds me of what happened when I was a child."

"Well, let's hear it".

"When I was a child, my mother was often sick, sought medical advice, and spent a lot of money, so the family was not wealthy. There are two families in one of our alleys, one surnamed Yan and the other surnamed Xu. Both of them are doing well, and they look down on my family."

Zhou Yao said, sadness appeared on his face, and continued: "The one I remember the most, in the evening after the rain in summer, everyone was sitting in the alley, and Uncle Yan carried a bottle of wine and deliberately said to Uncle Xu in front of my father, go, go to my house to drink wine and eat meat."

At that time, our family couldn't afford meat, so he only invited Uncle Xu, and if he refused to invite my dad, he deliberately did it in front of my dad.

At that time, I secretly vowed that when I grew up, I would let my dad eat and drink spicy food."

Sima Shu was not far away, listening to Zhou Yao's words, gritting his teeth, clenching his fists, very distressed.

Sima Shu's grandmother said: "Yes, child, people should grow their own ambitions"!

Zhou Yao's sadness gradually turned into sadness, saying: "However, when I was able to buy meat and wine for my father, my father passed away."

The old lady looked at Zhou Jin with tears in her eyes, and also accompanied Zhou Jin to shed tears.

Zhou Jin continued: "When it comes to Changzhiqi, there is one thing that is enough for me to remember for a lifetime."

"What's the matter?"

"The Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, when dates are the sweetest, is the season to beat dates with bamboo poles. Uncle Yan has a jujube tree at home, he is beating jujubes, and the children in our alley are all picking them up. He kept rolling his eyes at me, and my dad saw it, called me over, took off his shoes, hit the soles of my ass hard, and dragged me home.

As soon as I entered the gate, my dad hugged me and cried. My dad said that people have to earn their own money, and they can't look at other people's faces and beg for food. If you earn it, you can eat it, but if you can't earn it, you can't ask for it if you want to eat chaff and vegetables."

The old lady applauded, "Well said," but the old lady secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"The most uncomfortable thing for me is that my father, for me and my mother, has worked hard all his life, traveled all his life, and after I worked, he should have enjoyed happiness, but he fell ill due to overwork."

The old lady sat next to Zhou Yao, took her into her arms, and comforted her. Zhou Jin said: "My mother told me one thing, and every time I think about it, my heart is like a knife.

In order to earn money to treat my mother's stomach problems, my dad decided to ride his bicycle north and bring a bag of shrimp paste back to sell. On the way, in order to save money, my dad asked for a steamed bun and a bowl of hot water in a roadside restaurant.

There was a young man next to me who saw that my dad was bitter, ate half of the food and served it to my dad, and then left.

My dad was just about to eat, but the owner of the restaurant grabbed my dad by the collar and knocked my dad to the ground, forcing my dad to pay for the plate. My dad felt that he was at a loss and couldn't fight back, so he had to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and pay the money."

Zhou Yao said, the tears in his eyes couldn't be stopped anymore, and his cheeks flowed. Sima Shu also burst into tears, he hated to press the restaurant owner to the ground and force him to eat soil.

The old lady was kind and kind, and said to Zhou Yao: "Good boy, don't be sad, your father sees you so good, he thinks his life's hard work is worth it"!

Zhou Jia heard the old lady say this, and got a lot of comfort in her heart, saying: "Fortunately, I was born in such a prosperous era of meritocracy, I can create my own achievements with what I have learned, and I can also provide my mother with high-quality living conditions."

The old lady suddenly proposed, saying, "Good boy, marry into our family, so that you can bring living conditions for your mother."

Zhou Yao didn't guard against the old lady's proposal, and after being stunned for a while, he shook his head and refused: "Thank you, grandma, you forgot, you have to rely on yourself"!

"When you marry in, you rely on your own excellence"!

Ma Ruozhu suddenly spoke, and Zhou Yao turned her head to look, not knowing when she came.

Ma Ruozhu said: "I came a long time ago, I heard everything you said", and then turned back to Sima Shu and said: "Unlike my stupid son, he will accompany you to shed tears and dare not show love to you."

Zhou Yao stood up and looked at Sima Shu, just about to leave, Ma Ruozhu asked her, "Do you agree to be my daughter-in-law?"

Zhou Jian blushed, how could he be so direct, this Ma Ruozhu's temperament is too crunchy! I have the heart to refuse, but Sima Shu's grandmother treats herself sincerely, how can she refuse ruthlessly!

Ma Ruozhu looked at Zhou Yao bowing his head and was silent, and his heart was anxious for a while, and said: "Oh, why are you such a happy child, why do you twist it? Although you and Yangyang have broken up, I like you to be my daughter-in-law."

"Break up?"

Sima Shu's grandmother was puzzled, looked at Zhou Yao, looked at Sima Shu, and asked a series of questions: "What's going on? Have the two of them ever been in love? Why don't I know? Are you breaking up again now? Why did you break up?"

"Mom", Ma Ruozhu pulled her and said, "Mom, let's go, let's go into the house, I'll tell you what's going on."

Ma Ruozhu helped the old lady to leave, and when he passed by Sima Shu, he pushed him to Zhou Jiao, signaling Sima Shu to seize the opportunity and act quickly.

Ma Ruozhu deliberately left the space to Sima Shu and Zhou Jin, but Zhou Jin refused to give Sima Shu a chance.

Sima Shu just wanted to speak, but Zhou Yao said coldly: "I should go back"!

Sima Shu grabbed Zhou Yao's arm and let Zhou Jin resist, refusing to let go. Zhou Jia believed that he was usually strong, but he found that he was not Sima Shu's opponent.

The massage exercises he practiced during college couldn't get rid of Sima Shu's shackles.

"You let go, I'm leaving", Zhou Yao resisted, breaking Sima Shu's hand hard.

No matter how Zhou Yao struggled, Sima Shu just refused to let go, but grabbed it tighter and tighter.

Zhou Yao yelled angrily: "Sima Shu, if you don't let go, I'm not polite to you!"
