Qian agrees with Lao Zhoutou on this point, so he also said to Man Bao, "Family management must be diligent and thrifty, and you can't always think about buying delicious and fun things. Only by saving at ordinary times can the family have surplus."
Mrs. Qian couldn't hold it back for a while, and taught her daughter for a while, "Look at our big family, we have a lot of people and earn a lot, but if we don't have savings, one or two people in the family get sick, or encounter natural disasters and man-made disasters. What will we do then?"
Old Zhou nodded repeatedly, "That's right, that's right, Man Bao, you can play with the young masters of the Bai family, and you can also learn from them, but don't learn the skills of spending money. We have to learn to save money, you know ?"
Qian came back to his senses and talked about his purpose again, "But I said that I want to distribute the money to the children, not to distribute it to them and pay it back immediately."
When old Zhou Tou heard his wife mentioning this topic, he immediately turned his face away in displeasure.
Qian was furious, slapped the bed and said, "Man Bao, turn your father's face around to me."
Man Bao immediately reached out to scratch her father's old face.
Old Zhou turned his head back angrily, and said, "If you give them the money, can they not spend it? Since they all have to be saved, what's the difference between storing it here and storing it at theirs? When they want to use the money in the end Would I not give it to them?"
"Of course there is," Qian said in a deep voice, "Let's not talk about the fourth child. Look at the eldest child, the second child, and the third child. Which one of them doesn't have a family behind them? If you are not in charge of the family, you don't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt. They are all so old. You How long will you give them back the money? I mean, when the family has money and affluence now, give them some and let them learn to be their own householders."
Old Zhou said: "I'm not dead yet, they want to be in charge?"
Old Zhou was so angry that his chest heaved, he pointed to Man Bao who was sitting beside him and said, "Don't say that the sixth child will take several years to get married, just talk about Man Bao, she will have to wait seven or eight years to get married, right? what kind of home?"
Qian said indifferently: "I was in charge when Dalang was five years old, and my parents were still there at that time. If I hadn't been in charge two years earlier, when my parents left, our whole family would drink the northwest wind."
Seeing her digging through old accounts, Lao Zhou couldn't help grinding his teeth.
Man Bao raised his small head to look at his father, then at his mother, and finally said: "Father, mother, stop quarreling, what if brothers and sisters-in-law follow your example of quarreling?"
Mrs. Qian stretched out her foot and lightly kicked Lao Zhou's head, and said with disgust: "Go out and clarify for me, did I quarrel with you, and also, go to bask in the sun by yourself, sober up, I will give some children The money can't be for me, can it? It's for your old Zhou family!"
Old Zhou was kicked out just like that.
Zhou Dalang and the others hid as early as when their mother slapped the bed board again. Of course, they took their wives and children with them, so the yard was empty at this time.
The fifth child and the sixth child did not know where they went.
He obviously made a lot of money today, but the old Zhou Tou was still very angry, and angrily went to get up on Wednesday with a cigarette stick behind his back.
He planned to settle accounts with that unfortunate nephew, but he was so full that he had nothing to do, so he spread nonsense.
On a hot day, with nothing to do since Wednesday, he was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, and then he was dragged up by his father by his ears.
Started crying "Ai Ai" on Wednesday, and was dragged to Lao Zhou's head with his ears lifted.
Old Zhou Tou sat smoking in the main room where he got up on Wednesday, and when he saw him being brought up by his ears, he raised his eyelids and glanced at him, and said earnestly, "Sanqi, how old are you, look at the rice in the field. Passed? Didn’t it rain twice a while ago? Did you top-dress it?”
Still confused since Wednesday, the old Zhou Tou continued: "After chasing fertilizer, the water in the field will be enough for another three or four days. If you have to let it go, let it go. There are so many things to do, why do you have to do it?" Arrange me and your aunt..."
Since Wednesday, his father slapped him on the head, "You unlucky boy, your son can run all over the place, and you are still fooling around outside."
From Wednesday onwards, he finally knew why he was charged. He hurriedly called out his grievances, and said, "Uncle, Uncle Jin, I didn't say what was said outside. I just wandered around the neighborhood after I went home and had lunch. Before I had time to tell people, it spread outside. I also said, uncle and aunt never blush, how could it be possible to make trouble to the point where all aunt's and mother's family come?"
On Wednesday, he shouted: "I really didn't say this, uncle, if you don't believe me, I swear!"
Old Zhou Tou was dubious, and his father immediately said: "Brother Jin, although this kid has a mustache, he dares to speak up. If he says no, then he doesn't."
"That's right, Uncle, Big Donkey's mother was watching me and Man Bao in her yard at that time, she must have heard what we said, maybe she passed it on."
Who in the whole village doesn't know that Zhou Dayuan's wife, Mrs. Zhang, is at odds with Mrs. Qian
However, they were still in the same village, and there was some kind of kinship between the turnarounds. Someone from the Qian family came, but no one else went, so they turned around and went to Zhou Dayuan's house to sit and gossip.
I heard Zhou Dalu's mother was very angry in private.
Old Zhou Tou: ... After a long time, he found the wrong person!
Since Wednesday, I also noticed that Old Zhou was not feeling well, and immediately sat beside him to comfort him, "Uncle, this woman is like that, we can't be as familiar with them, look at this hot day, you won't be caught Auntie kicked it out?"
Old Zhou Tou: ...
Looking at his face from Wednesday, I was excited, and without thinking about it, I asked, "Uncle, someone from Auntie's family is here to make decisions for you, right?"
Old Zhou Tou put away his cigarette bag, and his father saw it on Wednesday, he was horrified, and immediately kicked his son away, and sent Old Zhou Tou out in a good voice.
When I came back, I couldn't help beating my son, "You dare to ask anything, and you dare to say anything outside. You learned it from your mother. If you don't learn if you are good, you will become a gossip..."
Standing outside the wall, old Zhou Tou was satisfied when he heard howl he was beaten up on Wednesday, and went home with his hands behind his back.
Hmph, since it's Zhang's story, it's a woman's business, so he won't clarify it, it's embarrassing, the old woman in the family should go.
Thinking of this, the old Zhou went home confidently, and when he reached the door of the room, he quietly opened the door and entered.
I went to bed late last night, woke up early, and didn't sleep well. Now that things are over, everyone is sleeping in the house.
Man Bao was lying beside Qian. She had always had the habit of taking a nap. At this time, her stomach was rumbling, her mouth was slightly open, and the smell was unbelievable.
Old Zhou touched the edge of the bed, and lay down carefully on the outermost side.
In a daze, Qian moved Man Bao inwards to make room for him.
Old Zhou looked at it, felt relieved, and simply squeezed in and lay down comfortably.
It's better at home, it's not like outside, the sun in May is already shining so that people's eyes are dizzy.
