Zhou Peng pushed the 50,000 yuan in his hand in front of Zhou's father and said, "Dad, don't think about building a house for the fourth uncle, I'll give you 50,000 yuan at most to transfer the store, have you thought about what business you want to do?"

Dad Zhou was anxious and said, "I have already promised your grandfather, and I can't say anything if I don't give it cover." ”

Zhou Peng patted the table lightly and said, "It's reasonable, why can't you say it? Look at what our half of the house has been squeezed into." Our own house hasn't been settled yet, grandpa, is he embarrassed to let you build a house for the fourth uncle in front of outsiders? ”

"From now on, just like if he hasn't opened that mouth, and you haven't nodded that head! Grandpa has a good face and doesn't dare to make trouble in front of people. After Zhou Peng said this, he looked at Zhou's father carefully.

Mother Zhou looked at Zhou Peng like this, and suddenly there were tears in the corners of her eyes. Look, this is her son, much better than his father! A few words, she solved the problem that she felt so annoying!

Dad Zhou muttered softly: "I also have a good face......

Zhou Peng heard his words clearly, and said: "If you have to build a house for the fourth uncle, I won't stop you, anyway, don't even think about moving the remaining 150,000 yuan!"

Zhou Peng took a bunch of cloth ropes from the snakeskin bag and handed it to Zhou Xiaoxian, who was standing behind him, and asked Zhou Xiaoxian to lock the money in the bamboo box first, and then let Zhou Xiaoliu receive the place where Zhou's father couldn't find it.

Zhou Xiaoxian locked the money in front of Zhou's father and Zhou's mother, then looked at the place where the key was usually placed, shook his head, and directly strung the key with a rope, hung it around his neck, and stuffed it into his clothes.

Zhou's mother nodded at her, and Zhou Xiaofang also pursed her lips and stole fun.

Dad Zhou looked at his wife and children who regarded him as a thief, slapped his thigh, turned his back, and sulked alone.

……

Zhou Xiaoliu walked towards the back mountain while thinking about his thoughts.

In his previous life, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother worked for four years to save enough 20,000 yuan. Grandpa Zhou took advantage of the Chinese New Year to call Zhou's father over for a meal, and when Zhou's father came back, he excitedly said to Zhou's mother: "Our house can start to be built, our father said......"

Grandpa Zhou said: "Your house is indeed too small, and the matter of building a house is indeed very important." You can build your house on top of my vegetable garden, so that you can save a lot of money to buy land. But 20,000 yuan is estimated to be not enough. Why don't you continue to go out to work, I'll help you do it at home, and send the money back as soon as you pay your salary every month......"

Zhou's father and Zhou's mother thought that it would be really good for Grandpa Zhou to give them a piece of land for nothing, and to help them build a house! So, they did not hesitate to hand over 20,000 yuan to Grandpa Zhou, and went south to continue to earn money with great gratitude.

When they went home for the New Year, they found that the new house in the vegetable garden had indeed been built, but Grandpa Zhou and his family lived in it. On the title deed of the new house, Zhou Qinghu's name is written.

Grandpa Zhou said again: "I thought about it, you should give me this new house, I am old, and the old house often leaks rain, it is too damp, and it is not good for my health." The more than 20,000 yuan should be regarded as the pension money you paid me in advance, and in the next ten years, I will not ask you for any more pension money. ”

This sounds like Zhou's father and Zhou's mother are not at a loss, but in fact, at that time, the old people in Shili and Eight Villages, except for those who were really in poor health, were less than sixty-five years old, and few of them opened their mouths to their sons to ask for pension money. Moreover, people ask their sons for a maximum of 500 yuan a year, and each son gives the same.

Grandpa Zhou was less than sixty at the time, and one mouth was equivalent to asking for two thousand yuan a year for pension money, and in the past ten years, he did not ask Zhou Xiaoliu's three uncles for a cent.

Zhou's father and Zhou's mother, who had worked hard for several years and returned to the liberation overnight, retreated and asked Grandpa Zhou to lend the vacated old house to him to live in, and Grandpa Zhou replied: "The old house can't be inhabited, and pigs have been raised in it for several months." ”

Zhou's mother wanted to make trouble, but Zhou's father stopped her and hugged her.

Zhou Xiaoliu and his brothers and sisters were sad for a long time when they heard that the new house was no longer theirs. When building that house, the brothers and sisters had been helping to move bricks, throw bricks, and carry cement, and they didn't know how many blood blisters had on their hands.

Zhou Xiaoliu remembered that year, their family was crowded at a small round table for Chinese New Year's Eve, and in Grandpa Zhou's old house across the wall, a pig arched the wall and stretched out a head towards them, and the pig and them were terrified!

Zhou Xiaoliu thought about it, sat down on a big stone on the side of the road, and sighed: "Why am I such an innocent father!"

She looked at the money lying in the storage ring again, and said softly, "I don't know when the matter of going to the county to buy a house will be carried out." "Money is lying here, depreciating day by day.

Forget it, let's go to the county seat tomorrow to see it, ask about the housing price, and go to Aunt Lin's wonton shop on West Street to eat a bowl of wontons, I haven't eaten it for a long time, I miss it.

Thinking of eating, Zhou Xiaoliu's mood instantly improved. She got up from the rock, patted the dust off her buttocks, plucked a dog's tail from her hand and put it in her mouth, hummed a little tune and walked down the hill.

It's already dark, but this doesn't affect Zhou Xiaoliu's ability to see things, she has "artificial moonlight".

The grass beside her suddenly shook, and Zhou Xiaoliu hurriedly looked at the grass, "Who?"

She saw a figure crouching in the grass.

The figure slowly stood up from the grass and smiled slightly at Zhou Xiaoliu.

Although the other party smiled beautifully, Zhou Xiaoliu was still taken aback.

"Oh mamma!" she ran away.

Sun Wu stood in the grass, looking at Zhou Xiaoliu, who was so frightened that he didn't even remember to use the Tengyun Technique, his face gradually darkened.

However, who let him possess Sun Wu's two fools? These two fools are the childhood shadows of Zhou Xiaoliu's previous life!

Zhou Xiaoliu liked to marry Sun Wu's aunt to play at Sun Wu's house in her previous life, because her aunt was very good to her. But she is also most afraid of going to her aunt's house, because Sun Wu has a second fool, who will not only chase and beat people with sticks, but also suddenly rush out, hug her who is passing by tightly and do not let go, calling her little daughter-in-law. She was scared and cried several times.

Even if he lived again, Zhou Xiaoliu was stunned when he saw him.

Zhou Xiaoliu ran to the house in one breath, gasped and said to his brothers and sisters: "But I'm scared to death, I actually met Sun Wu's second fool in the back mountain just now!"

Zhou Peng blinked and asked, "How could the second fool appear on the back mountain of our village at this time?

Zhou Xiaoxian thought for a while and said, "Could he be lost, right? Then his father has to be in a hurry." Why don't we do a good deed and take him to the village party secretary's house, and let the village party secretary send someone to inform his father?"

Zhou Xiaoliu patted his heart fearfully and said, "You guys go, I don't dare to go, what if he hugs me again?"

The second sister Zhou Xiaofang smiled and said: "He just hugged you once when you were five years old, you still remember! You cried so badly back then......

Zhou Xiaoliu was embarrassed, when she was five years old in this life, she was already a soul of nearly thirty years old, but she didn't expect to be scared to cry by a second fool. She blushed and lowered her head.

Zhou Peng waved his hand and said, "Let's go together! Xiaoliu, you show us the way!"

Seeing Zhou Xiaoliu standing still, Zhou Peng said again: "What are you still doing in a daze? You are not even afraid of ghosts, but you are still afraid of a second fool?"
