Zhou Qinghu, who returned to the house, said to Grandpa Zhou: "Dad, I still suspect that our cow was stolen by my sister-in-law. If it weren't for such a coincidence, as soon as our cow was lost, she would have eaten beef, and in the market in our town, the beef seller can only be seen once or twice a year. ”

Grandpa Zhou glared at his fourth son and said, "Put away your careful thoughts, you think I don't know, you just think, whether it is your eldest brother and sister-in-law who stole the cow or not, you have to deceive them and find some money from them." ”

Zhou Qinghu touched his nose and muttered: "Anyway, the eldest brother and sister-in-law picked up so much money for nothing, and they didn't spend it to build a house, you didn't see today's banquet, this looks like you have a lot of money on hand, let's have dates or not, let's hit three poles first......"

Grandpa Zhou poked his fourth son's forehead with hatred: "You, you! If you weren't lazy all day long, why wouldn't you do anything, would I have to worry about the money in your eldest brother's pocket all day long?"

As soon as Zhou Qinghu heard this, he turned into a dog's leg in seconds, reached out and pinched Grandpa Zhou's shoulder, beat his back, and rubbed his forehead, and said: "I know, I know, it is you who always feel sorry for me, who made me your obedient old son? ”

Grandpa Zhou quite ate his set, but he still had to say: "I'm not old and confused, I can't count on you now, can I count on you in the future?" If you want to talk about filial piety, you four brothers, your eldest brother listens to me the most." ”

It is because the boss is obedient that he dares to take advantage of it again and again.

It's just that the matter that the fourth child said today is really unreasonable, even if he can take advantage of it, it is not good-looking, and the old and young masters in the village can drown him with spit.

Of course, if it weren't for the 10,000 yuan, he would definitely do what the fourth child said.

There is such a thing as face, it is not important to say that it is important. If someone gives him a lot of money, he can do it himself.

Thinking of the money, Grandpa Zhou lowered his voice again and said to his fourth son: "The 10,000 yuan picked up in the cowshed, you can take it to Miss Yang of the Yang family as a dowry." I don't believe that with such a rich bride price, she can still insist on marrying her father and mother together? In this world, there are all things that can be done without money. If you can't get the money, it's because you don't have enough money!"

There was no way, Zhou Qinghu coveted Miss Yang's beauty, and made a fuss about not marrying her! But as soon as Grandpa Zhou heard that she still insisted on marrying her, he had to take her parents out of Yang's family to be raised, so he stretched his face and left.

also put down the words and said that his son would not be worried about not being able to marry a daughter-in-law, and the girl of the Yang family would hold it again, and she would not be able to marry in the future!

Zhou Qinghu nodded happily and said, "Okay! Thank you, Dad!" As he spoke, he hugged Grandpa Zhou's head and kissed him vigorously on the forehead.

"Alright, alright, no shape. Grandpa Zhou pretended to be disgusted.

Zhou Xue has been listening to them with her ears open. Hearing that Grandpa Zhou was going to give all the money to Zhou Qinghu, she was immediately unhappy, she pouted and looked unhappy: "Dad, what about me? I found out about the 10,000 yuan in the morning." I don't care, I have a share in it! Besides, I go to herd cattle every time......"

Grandpa Zhou smiled and said to Zhou Xue: "Don't shout, don't shout, be careful to let people hear." Dad will take you to the county seat to buy beautiful clothes in a few days, okay?"

"No, I'm going to go tomorrow!"

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow!"

……

After school in the afternoon, Zhou Xiaoliu saw his grandfather and grandmother when he got home. Zhou Xiaoliu called out and asked again: "Why didn't my uncle come along?"

Grandma said, "Your uncle has something to do, so he can't come." ”

As for what it was, grandma didn't say, and Zhou Xiaoliu didn't ask again, she put down her schoolbag and was about to help Zhou's mother set the table, but the table had already been set up by her second sister.

So she went to the big kitchen again and asked Zhou's mother if there was anything she could help with.

Zhou's mother said: "No, I'll heat up a few dishes, and I'll have it in a while." Go do your homework!"

Zhou Xiaoliu had no choice but to work with Zhou Cheng to set up a high stool and two small stools in the open space outside the door, and sat down to do his homework.

The homework in the third grade of primary school was too simple for her. After she finished her homework in three or two clicks, she sat there and played with the pen, and by the way, she instructed Zhou Cheng in the pen holding posture.

Inside the house, Zhou's father accompanied his father-in-law and mother-in-law to talk.

Zhou's father and mother-in-law each refilled a cup of tea, and said: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, I also plan to do the same, now that the house has been built, I will not go to other provinces to work with Yue, and I will guard the children at home...... In addition, I will give them another grasp of study, and maybe, our family can also produce a college student. ”

Grandpa pondered for a while and asked, "Then, are you going to find some odd jobs in the surrounding area in the future, or continue to do some small business?"

Zhou's father used to be a small trader, selling some vegetables in the east and fish in the west, and then selling them in the market to support his family.

But now the market is different, it is said that you can't make a lot of money like this, and the son-in-law's family has so many children, and the expenses are huge!

Dad Zhou replied: "I still have a little money left, and I plan to go to the town to rent a store facing the street and open a store." I haven't discussed it with Yue yet, and I'll talk about it after moving into a new house after a while. ”

Grandparents looked at each other, nodded at the same time, and said, "That's good, that's good!"

"Xiaofang, Xiaoliu, come and serve!" In the big kitchen, Zhou's mother shouted in a long voice.

Zhou Xiaoliu answered, put away the homework and stools, washed his hands and served the food.

Dad Zhou also got up and invited his father-in-law and mother-in-law to sit at the big table outside the door, and then went to invite Grandpa Zhou over.

Before eating, my grandmother asked, "Xiaopeng and Xiaoxian haven't finished school yet, do you want to wait for them to come back before using chopsticks?"

Zhou's mother said: "They make up for the class, and they will come back very late, so I left them food." Besides, how can there be any reason for your elders to wait for their juniors?"

Grandpa Zhou touched the glass with his in-laws, and said, "In-laws, how are you doing lately?"

Grandpa took a sip of soju, smiled at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and said, "Okay, okay, my son is about to marry a daughter-in-law, and my heart disease is about to end, can it be good?"

Zhou Xiaoliu's uncle is twenty-seven or eighteen, and he has never married a daughter-in-law, not because he is picky, but because his family is not rich, and every time he goes on a blind date, he can always meet opponents who have better conditions than him and are willing to pay more bride price than him.

Slowly, he was left.

He himself is not in a hurry, he thinks, then work hard in the past few years, save more money, and save enough, he will naturally be able to marry.

However, the bride price money rose rapidly, and his mother's health was not very good, and she often had to spend money on medicine, so the money was less and less saving.

The eldest son's brother-in-law beat the single, Grandpa Zhou knows. Now that I heard that this bachelor was finally going to marry a daughter-in-law, I secretly muttered in my heart: Shouldn't the eldest daughter-in-law take the money to make up for it?

The more he thought about it, the more unhappy he became, but he said congratulations, congratulations, and then asked, "Which girl is it?"

Grandpa said happily: "As for the daughter of Yang Laohan in Yang Jiaao, let me tell you, this is a good girl, especially filial piety......"

Grandpa Zhou stood up suddenly, knocked over the wine glass in front of him, and said, "You say it again, who?"
