Zhou Zhi's body fused with the memories of two people, and he had an understanding of the Chen family's arrogance and domineering. In the past, Zhou Zhi was the same timid and fearful and honest person as his father Zhou Tie. But now Zhou Zhi has a proud backbone, in his opinion, people must not live with humility and cowardice. People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden. The Chen family is just a very introverted thing, can it be that a few dollars can be arrogant and unreasonable, and deceive people too much?

If people don't offend me, I don't offend anyone. If anyone sins against me, I will offend. This is the basic principle of Zhouzhi survival.

Originally, the bet was won, but now I have to catch two chickens and go to Chen's house to apologize, where is such a reason? Indeed, Zhou Zhi's family has a few chickens, but the family is not even willing to eat an egg. Eggs were sold for silver money in exchange for some oil and salt.

Thinking like this, Zhou Zhi stiffened his neck and said, "Dad, mother, the child is not going." Chen Wenju lost, I have a contract, and their family must plow the land and plant wheat for our family. ”

"You...... Rebel, what a rebel, child, beat him, beat him hard, see if he still dares to be hard-mouthed, and dare not listen to orders. Zhou Tie continued to roar.

How could mother Zhou He be willing to fight Zhou Zhi, at this time she looked sad, glanced at Zhou Zhi, and said seriously, "Xiao Zhi, the older your child gets, the more you don't listen to orders, or listen to your father's orders, go quickly." Our family can't afford to mess with the Chen family, they may plow the fields and plant wheat for our family this time, but they will definitely retaliate in the future. If a poor family of ours provokes the Chen family, it will bring catastrophe.

Child, have you forgotten the disaster of Li Dayin's family two years ago? ”

When Mother Zhou He said this, she couldn't help but look frightened, even Zhou Tie, who was angry on the side, couldn't help but change color, and her eyes flashed with fear.

Just two years ago, Li Dayin, a farmer in Baiyue Village, was angry that his youngest son was bitten by the Chen family's dog, so he secretly beat the dog to death with a stick. As a result, after the Chen family found out, they did not give up and asked Li Dayin to compensate for ten acres of fertile land. The ten acres of fertile land are all the property of Li Dayin's family, and without these ten acres of fertile land, Li Dayin's family will have no food and clothing, and it will be difficult to survive.

How can a dog be worth ten acres of fertile land, Li Dayin really couldn't accept it, so he asked someone to write a complaint, and sued the Chen family to the Qingdu County Ya with a lawsuit. I thought that the county magistrate would preside over a justice for himself. Sadly, the county magistrate not only sentenced Li Dayin to compensate the Chen family for ten acres of fertile land, but also awarded Li Dayin's house to the Chen family. In just a few days, because of a dog, Li Dayin's family became homeless and homeless with no land to plant. Two years have passed, and no one knows whether Li Dayin's family is dead or alive.

Thinking of what happened to Li Dayin's family, Zhou Zhi was even more angry in his heart. Frowning slightly, he stopped talking.

Zhou He saw that Zhou Zhi was silent, so he continued, "Xiaozhi, go quickly." We don't have any other way, if you don't do what your father tells us to do, do we have any other way? ”

I thought that Zhou Zhi had the intention of repentance, but Zhou Zhi said again, "Dad, mother, the child is not Li Dayin, and the child is not afraid of the Chen family." If the Chen family wants to take revenge on us, then let them just come, and the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, there is still a king law in this world. Father, mother, forgive the child for not being filial, and the child will not go. ”

Seeing that Zhou Zhi was so stubborn today, Zhou Tie was even more furious. couldn't stop scolding, "Bastard, rebel, what a rebel!" ”

Zhou He's mother-in-law had nothing to do, she looked at Zhou Zhi with tears in her eyes, shook her head helplessly, and kept muttering in her mouth, "Xiaozhi, how did you become like this?" Do you really want to be angry with your father? ”

Zhou Zhi bowed his head and was silent. I secretly thought in my heart that it was originally a good thing, but who would have thought that my father would be so timid and afraid of things, and he would be scared like this by the Chen family. If this goes on for a long time, this family will come to a sad end sooner or later, and the Chen family will definitely become more and more arrogant and reckless.

Sister Zhou Luyun has been busy in the outhouse, and she has been listening carefully to the conversation between Zhou Zhi and her father in the inner room. Zhou Luyun couldn't help but sigh secretly, alas! Daddy, you're too honest to go on like this. Xiao Zhi's performance today is really good, I remember that Xiao Zhi used to be the same as his father, they were all honest and bullied, and they were slaughtered by others. Xiao Zhi has really changed since that fall and passed out.

has become like a man, and he has an opinion, it seems that Xiao Zhi has really grown up.

Don't look at Zhou Luyun as just an ordinary woman in a family, but she has a strong and unyielding heart, and she has a bit of a fierce daughter's temperament.

Zhou Luyun thought for a moment, stared at a pair of frightened eyes while standing at the door, and said softly to his little brother Zhou Shaocheng, who was at a loss, "Go and ask Uncle Zhang to come over." ”

Zhou Shaocheng opened his calves and ran to invite Uncle Zhang.

Uncle Zhang is Zhang Hudan'er's father, and everyone is used to calling him Daddy Zhang. Daddy Zhang is also a poor person, in addition, Daddy Zhang is also a gelding pig guy, and he walks the village to castrate pigs for the people who raise pigs when he is not working. In this way, the life of the Zhang family is slightly better than that of the Zhou family.

Daddy Zhang and Zhou Tie are friends of their ancestors, and they have a close relationship, and Zhou Tie usually listens to Daddy Zhang's words the most. Because Daddy Zhang walks the streets and alleys and has seen a lot, he is also more shrewd and lively. The Zhou family has something difficult to deal with, and it is often Daddy Zhang who helps him get the idea.

The kung fu was not big, Zhou Shaocheng trotted in front, and Father Zhang hurriedly followed behind to Zhou Zhi's house.

As soon as he saw his elder brother Zhang's father, Zhou Tie's eyes immediately filled with tears, and said, "Brother, look at it, this rebel is really not saved, why did I raise such a rebel." ”

Then Zhou Tie roughly told Daddy Zhang what happened.

After hearing this, Daddy Zhang pondered for a while, then looked at Zhou Zhi and said with a smile, "Xiaozhi, it's really long-lasting, not like your father." Yes! Okay, your Zhou family needs people like you. Only people like you can set up a door for your Zhou family. ”

As he spoke, he slapped Zhou Zhi with appreciation on his face, and finally said, "Xiaozhi, Uncle thinks you are doing the right thing, okay, it's okay, let's go out to eat." Your father will leave it to me. ”

Zhou Zhi suddenly felt like he had been amnestied, Daddy Zhou Tie was like this, when he lost his temper, he could listen to Daddy Zhang, and he wouldn't listen to anyone else. Obviously, Daddy Zhang is supporting himself. Zhou Zhi believes that with the persuasion of Daddy Zhang, Daddy Zhou Tie will definitely want to open it today.

Zhou thanked Daddy Zhang and came out of the back room.

Sister Zhou Luyun smiled at Zhou Zhiwan and said softly, "Xiaozhi, let's eat, it's really hard to be tired for a day, the main labor of this family is you now, you have to eat more." ”

The common people's home does not have so much etiquette, and at this time, Father Zhang is trying to persuade his father Zhou Tie, sister Zhou Luyun, and younger brothers Zhou Shaocheng and Zhou Zhi to sit around the low table and start eating.

The hot yellow rice pumpkin pie has a sweet taste in your mouth. It's rough and tickles every time I swallow it, but it's nice to be able to eat such a cake. Although the Zhou family has eight acres of land, and this year is also a bumper harvest year, the fields in the north are not as good as those in the south, and the land is barren, so the output of millet is not too much, and it is only about ten stones. Three stones of rice should be left as seeds, and the remaining seven or eight stones of five people will eat until next year's wheat harvest, so they must be saved.

The cakes baked at home during the slack time are made of yellow rice flour, pumpkin, grass bran and cabbage leaves. There is also the grass bran pumpkin that I usually eat, which is even more unpalatable. No way, this is the life of a poor family. The so-called "bran vegetable half-year grain"

Zhou Zhi ate a lot of food, ate four or five cakes in a row, and drank two large bowls of rice soup before he was full. Father Zhang in the back room was still persuading Daddy Zhou Tie, and listening to Daddy's tone, he was obviously much more relaxed, and Zhou Zhi was relieved. He greeted his sister softly and went to the stables.

At night, Zhou Zhi had to work in the stable, carefully serving the "Uncle Ma".
