Wu Meili hurriedly returned home and fell asleep without resting all night. The guardian stone she carried close to her body was like a guard, driving away all the panic and nightmares from her body.
Zhou Dalang, who was woken up in the early morning and opened the door, stared dumbly at his mother who was leaving like the wind. He scratched his hair and packed up the things his mother had left behind.
Arriving in the middle of the cart, he was about to untie the rope on the cart when he found several big hens squatting on the cart.
These hens are still alive and kicking, but they are tied up with ropes and cannot move. They bark twice from time to time to enhance their presence.
With a smile on Zhou Dalang's face, he grabbed the hens neatly, untied the ropes and put them into the chicken coop. Then, hearing the sound of flapping wings in the chicken coop, I smiled even more happily.
Next, he saw a small package hanging on the car. When he opened it, he saw a silver hairpin in the shape of chopsticks and a set of clothes with exquisite, gorgeous and lifelike embroidery.
Zhou Dalang smiled and murmured: "My sister is the only one in my hometown who has such skills. This must be my filial piety."
After saying that, he took a small package and returned to his room under the cover of night.
"Da Lang?"
A familiar voice came from the darkness, gentle and soft, like the gentle wind blowing on the cheek.
Zhou Dalang waved the thing in his hand and said.
"Hehua, you go back to sleep. My sister gave Mom some things as a tribute, but Mom forgot to take them back to the room. I will put the things in our room first, and I will give them to Mom when she gets up tomorrow morning."
"Um!"
The pregnant woman nodded, hugged her bulging belly again, and closed her eyes with difficulty.
Zhou Dalang quietly walked out of the room and closed the door slowly. Then he untied the rope between the bullock carts and drove the carts under the eaves. Without the key in my mother's hand, the warehouse door cannot be opened.
Turning his head to look at the big ox that was still chewing something, he bathed in the moonlight and pulled the ox out of the courtyard and into the cowshed.
Tying the big ox to one end, Zhou Dalang touched its somewhat shriveled belly. Very carefully, he took out some water and hay and gave the big ox a snack.
After finishing all the chores, he returned to the courtyard again. First, he closed the door to the courtyard and washed his hands before returning to his room and getting into the warm quilt.
An hour later, at dawn, the younger generation of the Zhou family got up. The only three men went to work in the fields, and the two daughters-in-law also joined hands to do the housework. There was no free moment.
"Sister-in-law, come and see, we have five more old hens at home."
Lu Ya, who was feeding the chickens at home by the chicken coop, said excitedly after counting the chickens in the chicken coop.
Lotus walked out of the kitchen holding a big belly and said loudly.
"Brother and sister, mother came back early this morning. She probably brought it back."
Luya nodded, left the chicken coop, came to the eaves nearby, carefully looked at the traces on the flatbed truck, and said happily.
"My mother really brought it back. I saw chicken feathers on the car. I will get some water later and clean the flatbed truck. After it is exposed to the sun, it will be a good car again."
Hehua shook her head, hugged her big belly, and entered the kitchen again.
Two hours later, when the sun gradually got higher, Wu Meili, who had been sleeping soundly, finally woke up.
She yawned, walked out of the room, covered her eyes with her hands, looked at the sun outside, and shouted loudly.
"Lotus, Green Ya, are your meals ready?"
"Mom, it's already done. I can eat it when Erlang and the others come back."
Luya stretched out her head and answered loudly. Then, she shrank her neck and entered the kitchen again.
After Wu Meili listened, she stretched, took a wooden basin, took some water, and started to wash up.
Then, she took out the brass key in her arms, opened the door of the warehouse, and drove in the flatbed truck that had been cleaned by her daughter-in-law.
After exiting the warehouse door and closing the lock, Wu Meili raised her chin high again and shouted loudly.
"Lotus, green buds, have you seen what I brought back yesterday?"
Luya stretched out her head again and replied excitedly.
"Mom, the five big hens you brought back are all in the chicken coop and have settled down now. I believe it won't be long before they can lay an egg a day."
"Good boy, where is my package?"
Wu Meili nodded and then asked her.
Lu Ya shook her head in confusion and replied.
"Mom, I didn't see any package. Ask my sister-in-law."
At this time, Hehua came out and said with a smile.
"Mom, the package is in my room. I'm going to get it for you now. Last night, Da Lang couldn't enter my mother's room, so he put the package in our room first."
Wu Meili nodded and said.
"Well, bring me the package. It's your sister-in-law's honor to me."
Hehua smiled slightly, washed her hands, and entered her room holding her waist.
Holding the package placed on the table, she was about to return it in its original form when she saw that the package had been scattered. A shining silver hairpin and a dark red dress with exquisite embroidery were revealed.
Hehua carefully touched the silver hairpin, opened her dress and looked at it again, a trace of envy flashed in her eyes.
My sister-in-law has been living in the most enviable daughter's family since she was a child.
Not only was he well fed and warmly clothed, but he was never taught a lesson by his parents at home. Moreover, he has a good craftsmanship and can earn a large amount of money every month, which makes him very respectable in his husband's family.
What's even more unbelievable is that she even knows a few words and has read some books, which is much better than many men.
Shaking her head, Hehua folded the clothes again, put the silver hairpin on it, packed the package and walked out of the door.
"Mom, I just found that the package was scattered, so I folded it again for you."
Wu Meili nodded, took the package and entered her room. Then, he took out the clothes and jewelry from the package and placed them on the wardrobe and dressing table respectively.
Soon, the three men, sweating profusely, came back from the fields. They simply cleaned up and then sat at the same table with their families to eat.
Zhou Dalang asked after taking a bite of vegetables and another bite of rice porridge.
"Mom, why did you come back so late? Did something happen?"
Wu Meili nodded and told the two birthing incidents she had experienced.
The first thing is easy to say, Wu Meili is the best stable woman in the country. No family would not want to invite her to give birth to a child.
The last thing…
Lu Ya covered her mouth in disbelief.
"Oh my god, it turns out there really is Wong Tai Sin."
"Yes, of course. Some of the stories you heard are actually true. It's just that some people don't see them once in their lives. To be honest with you, this is the first time I have encountered such a thing. "
Wu Meili smiled, and the sons and daughters-in-law mentioned in the serious science popularization were stunned for a while.
Erlang looked at Wu Meili with admiration and said with starry eyes.
"Mom is so amazing. She can stay calm and calm when encountering such things."
Wu Meili smiled, shook her head, and replied disapprovingly.
"As long as it's not a great immortal who wants to harm you as soon as you meet, he will not hurt anyone under normal circumstances. If you meet in the future, just pretend that you don't know what to do and don't mention a word in front of them. If they want to invite You help, just do your best. In this way, even if you don't get paid, you can still save your lives."
"Mom, what if we can't do it?"
Saburo pouted and asked with curiosity.
Wu Meili chuckled and replied in a calm tone.
"If you can't do it, then tell the truth. But whether you can go home or not, it's a 50-50 decision."
"ah!"
Zhou Lang frowned and screamed in grievance.
"how so?"
"You don't have to worry, very few people will encounter this kind of thing. Moreover, they are just like human beings, some are good and some are bad, some practice correct ways, and some practice evil ways."
Wu Meili looked at the children and comforted them sincerely.
"If you really encounter this kind of thing, you might be as lucky as my mother and meet a great immortal who corrects the path."
Several people smiled sarcastically, thinking that it was unlikely that they would encounter such a thing. Mom is a capable person, so Wong Tai Sin asked her to deliver the baby. People like them don't have much ability, and they will probably live a mediocre life.
As the topic changed, Wu Meili asked with squinting eyes.
"Boss, second, and third, your work in the fields is almost over. I have decided to send you to a private school."
The three sons were stunned for a moment, with different expressions.
After a while, Zhou Dalang said anxiously.
"Mom, I have been to private schools several times over the years. I already know half of the characters and can understand the contract. I think I'll stay at home and take care of everyone."
"Boss, didn't you say when you were a child that you wanted to take the imperial examination and become a high official? Don't worry, your family has made a small fortune now and can continue to support your studies."
Wu Meili raised her eyebrows and said with a heavy expression.
Zhou Dalang laughed dumbly and answered in a panic.
"Mom, my talent is not good, so I probably won't be able to pass the imperial examination. Look, I'm 18 years old now, and I haven't accomplished anything. I think my third brother's talent is pretty good, and maybe he can become a scholar."
Wu Meili knocked on the table, turned around and asked again.
"Second brother, what do you think?"
Zhou Erlang lowered his head and continued with a red face.
"Mom, like my eldest brother, I don't have much talent. Since my family has some extra money, I'll send my younger brother to a private school. His talent is better than ours, and he might be able to change our family's appearance."
The author has something to say: Note: The brothers have read a little bit of books one after another. They studied when they had money, and dropped out of school when they had no money. Now they are all half-baked.
