Chapter 16: Hopelessness of Separation
She doesn't understand the difficulty of separating the family, in Shanshui Village, it is generally the elders who do not separate the family, but there are exceptions.
Those people are not the same family, how can they get to their own home, Shen has a lot of grievances in his heart.
Zhou Yanguo let out a long sigh, his tone was not as cold as before, he also knew that his daughter-in-law had suffered a lot of mother's anger, and he was also a little guilty in his heart.
"Daughter-in-law, I know you want to split up, but this really can't be done, my father and mother don't agree, we can't do anything."
"Hmph, I see that you don't know that for the sake of the family, if you don't agree once, then mention it twice, three times, and there will always be a time when your father and mother will agree." The Shen family made up their minds that they must split up, otherwise when will this day come to an end.
"Oh, you really want to split up, even if you don't have any land or a room, you are all out of the house?"
"Why, you are the eldest in the family, why do you want to leave the house!!" Shen's high-pitched voice was much louder in the night sky, startling Zhou Yanguo, and immediately covered his daughter-in-law's mouth with his big palm.
Shen was also frightened by his excited words, and the blood on his face seemed to be gradually fading.
Zhou Yanguo saw that his daughter-in-law was quiet, glared fiercely, his eyes pressed and his voice was suppressed, and he said with a warning: "If you don't want to go out of the house, don't think about those who don't have it." I was sleepy and slept. Don't be noisy, go to bed early. After speaking, he ignored Shen's unwilling expression, and lay down directly for a while, snoring loudly, so angry that Shen couldn't wait to give him a few kicks, and he was sulking a lot, and finally couldn't resist falling asleep and lying down to sleep.
The living standard of the Zhou family in Shanshui Village is actually quite upper-middle, at least there are more than a dozen acres of paddy fields at home, and about 20 acres of dry fields. In addition to taxes, if you just fill your stomach, there is definitely a lot left. However, after the harvest every year, the surplus grain was sold by the Zhou family for silver. In addition, she is extremely eccentric and picky, so the Zhou family's food is actually quite poor.
And because the Zhou family is very patriarchal, except for Zhou Ziya, of course, it is not easy to be the daughter-in-law and granddaughter of the Zhou family.
In terms of food, the Zhou family calculates the amount of food given by each meal, and there are many people in the Zhou family, many men, as the saying goes, the half-old boy eats the old man, and the Zhou family has so many half-grown children, and the effect of eating can be imagined.
Early in the morning, Zhou Ziya was pulled out of the bed, and the whole person was still a little confused. I washed a cold water face, and immediately my little face was wrinkled, and my spirit returned.
Zhou Ziya followed behind her cheap dad like a little tail, and was hugged into the ox cart, and the cheap dad hummed a little song and waved a whip to drive the ox cart, and he knew that the mood was very good.
"Hey, Ziya Dad, wait, ouch, I really caught up with luck today, I actually ran into your ox cart, let us take a ride on the ox cart too." Zhang Laosan's ox cart didn't know where it had gone today, and he didn't even see a shadow. The woman shouted and ran with the basket on her back, followed by three women, all carrying things on their backs or carrying things in their hands.
"Yo, Cuihua, I'm going to the market today to sell some good things, and the back basket is full." Zhou Yanliang glanced at it, but it was covered by something and he didn't see anything.
"Hey, what good things can there be, just worthless things." Hurry up and tell a lie, in fact, it contains valuable chickens ready to be sold in the town.
