During the 29th and 30th days of the Lunar New Year, the family killed five pigs and sold almost all of them. The livers, bones, and even pig blood were half-sold and half-gifted to the villagers. After all, the Zhou family can't eat that much, and there is no place to put it now. Zhou Zekai doesn't think it's useful to store it for a long time. Only the bones of two pigs are left, and each family divides it up to give some meat and bones to his daughter Zhou Qianqian , let it be sent to Fang Yi's home.
Fang Yi's brothers also came to greet him. Naturally, they also bought meat. People said they were buying it, but although Zhou Zekai took the money, it was natural that he gave him a lot of money. After all, Fang Yi is a good person, and now his daughter doesn't have to wait on his father-in-law. And mother-in-law, because of others, Zhou Zekai has no shortage of these pork.
Because of the Chinese New Year, the Zhou family gathered together in this old house. On the eve of the New Year's Eve, they stayed up together to celebrate the New Year. The two daughters-in-law cooked a table of dishes, and everyone ate happily.
Zhou Kexin didn't make any fuss, which made Zhou Zekai very satisfied, because he specifically told Zhou Yaozu not to get in touch with Zhou Kexin. The other children were playing around, but Zhou Kexin hid somewhere alone.
This year, Zhou Kexin broke through Zhou Kexin's memory again, making Zhou Kexin doubt whether everything he had experienced was true, especially when Zhou Zekai took out a large stack of red envelopes after the early morning, each child gave two hundred After receiving 100 yuan of lucky money, Zhou Kexin looked at Zhou Zekai suspicious of his life.
Does she remember that her grandfather is not patriarchal? Mom said that grandpa only gave New Year's money to the younger brothers of the uncle's family, and never gave them girls
"This year is also considered a bumper year for us. The lucky money for the children is placed with the children. If you help the children keep it, you can't spend it for the children, you know?"
Zhou Zekai told his son and daughter-in-law, and asked Zhou Wenlong and Zhou Guochang to nod quickly. Zhou Tengfei, who hadn't gone to his wife yet, was also stuffed with a red envelope by his own father, after all, he wasn't married yet! If you are not married, you are a child, and Zhou Zekai treats them equally.
Liang Meng saw that her two daughters together had four hundred yuan in their hands, and felt that her father-in-law was really generous, and decided to take the money away after her daughter went to bed, and did not listen to Zhou Zekai's words.
"By the way, there are three big pigs and eight little pigs here at home. What I mean is, since I will live with the boss next year, the pigs in this house will inevitably be taken care of by you, Wen Long. Would you like to continue raising them in the village?" Pigs? If you don't want to, I'll find someone to sell all the pigs, and the price is pretty good right now."
Looking at the second son, he is not partial, and raising pigs is actually not bad. If the eight little pigs wait until the end of next year, this son will also be able to earn a lot of money...
Zhou Wenlong didn't expect his father to say this, thinking of those cute pigs in the yard, he hurriedly said.
"Father, I am willing to raise this pig. This pig belongs to Daddy. Anyway, I have nothing to do except go to work at home. I just feed it. Don't worry, I promise to feed the pig until it is white and fat."
Seeing that this son is really stupid, Zhou Zekai originally wanted to say that he would give all these pigs to this son, but after thinking about it, he didn't say in front of everyone that he planned to kill pigs next year, so he would subsidize his second son Money, but also save trouble.
He glanced at Zhou Kexin, this girl will be six years old this year, and she is getting older and older, Zhou Zekai is very worried when she reaches the age of doing things.
"That's fine, I'll let you raise the pigs at home, and when the time comes, I'll sell them for money and give you some."
Zhou Zekai nodded, and the family was happy again. When it was almost two o'clock, everyone was hungry. Zhang Cuiling and Liang Meng made meals again, and Zhou Kexin just wanted to cry when looking at these meals. She never knew that her own mother Cooking is so unpalatable, but my aunt's cooking is so delicious.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Zekai sat on a chair and enjoyed the custom of being greeted by the juniors on their knees. Although red envelopes had already been distributed last night, Zhou Zekai still rewarded these children with candy. This is not ordinary candy, but Chocolate, chocolate that hasn't become popular in this year.
Sure enough, it made these children very happy after eating, pestering each of them to call grandpa, which made Zhou Zekai very happy.
In fact, Zhou Zekai is also curious, what happened to Zhou Kexin's space, because according to the situation in his memory, Zhou Kexin made a fool of his cousin when he was fourteen years old, and also destroyed Zhou Tengfei in the same year, and And raised Liang Meng so white...
But now...Looking at Liang Meng and Zhou Kexin, Zhou Zekai can only think that maybe this space can't be used now
Zhou Kexin didn't expect that grandpa had chocolates. After asking grandpa how many he wanted, Liang Meng took him to another room and asked directly.
"Where's the lucky money your grandpa gave you last night?"
She had already found the New Year's money from her second daughter Zhou Kemeng, but she couldn't find the money from her eldest daughter, so she brought Zhou Kexin to ask.
"I hid it myself."
Of course it is placed in the space, but Zhou Kexin knows how important two hundred yuan is in these years, you can buy a house for eight or nine thousand yuan, and these two hundred yuan are her own small coffers, Zhou Kexin does not intend to give it away. My own mother, this is her starting fund.
"Where is it hidden? Hurry up and find it and give it to Mom, and Mom will hold it for you, otherwise, what if it is stolen by a thief!"
As Liang Meng spoke, his face was full of righteousness, but Zhou Kexin almost wanted to roll his eyes.
The biggest lie in this world is to give the lucky money to parents and ask them to help save it. When they grow up, they will find that the lucky money is gone...
So she decided not to give it.
"My hiding place is very hidden, and I won't lose it."
It's a pity that after she finished speaking, she was grabbed by Liang Meng. Seeing that Liang Meng was about to beat her up, Zhou Wenlong just came in from the outside. Seeing his wife dragging his daughter to beat her, he hurried over to protect her. Zhou Kexin.
"What are you doing! Beating a child during Chinese New Year? If our father finds out, it will be your fault."
As she spoke, she hugged Zhou Kexin in her arms, and let Zhou Kexin bury her head on this father. She couldn't recall her memories of this father, but she only knew that he broke his leg in the ore factory once, and he has been there ever since. Being called a cripple and not making money all day, in her opinion, is a worthless and cowardly existence.
But now, when being held in his father's arms, Zhou Kexin felt that maybe his father loved her too
"She didn't know where to hide the New Year's money that my father gave me yesterday! Aren't I afraid that she will lose it? I just asked her for it and put it away for her!"
Liang Meng was even angrier when she saw her husband like this. What she hated the most was her husband's attitude. Every time something happened, it was always daddy's fault. Could it be the child who was still breastfeeding? Can't do without dad! I don't even look at it, the elder brother and the elder sister-in-law have both been taken to the street by my father, and I haven't seen him, the second son, taking advantage of it...
"Didn't this father say it? Let the child hold it by himself, exercise the child's autonomy, that's all right, don't ask for the money, let Kexin hold it by himself."
As he said that, he turned his head and hugged Zhou Kexin and went out. Zhou Wenlong was watching the New Year's Eve, and he didn't want to quarrel with his wife. Don't look at him blankly, but he knew in his heart that the elder brother and sister-in-law went to live on the street with their father. It made my wife feel uncomfortable and kept chattering, but he thought it was okay!
Dad's money, whoever he wants to spend it on, then spend it on whoever! Besides, elder brother has taken care of dad most these years, so it is normal for dad to open a shop for elder brother...
Zhou Kexin, who was being hugged, breathed a sigh of relief. When she thought of her space, she felt that this space was really useless, it could only be used to put things, and it was so small, it was not at all as described in the novel. , She originally wanted to secretly put some in the space, but with so many people watching, she didn't dare, which made Zhou Kexin very unhappy.
Zhou Zekai didn't care about these things, he took his grandson and granddaughters to pay New Year's greetings one by one in the village on the first day of the new year, and everyone chatted together, reminiscing about the past, and couldn't be happier, especially this year, the life of the Zhou family is getting better and better, Zhou Zekai also thought about how to make money after the Chinese New Year. After all, things like money will be spent sooner or later. He planned to bring his family to settle in Lin'an City.
On the second day of the new year, Zhou Qianqian, the only girl in the family, brought her husband Fang Yi and daughter Fang Yingying over, and brought good news! That means Zhou Qianqian is pregnant! It's been three months!
Because I have been busy before, and I was wearing too thick clothes in winter, so I didn't notice it. Now I eat fish after I come back, and I feel disgusting directly. Her mother-in-law can tell at a glance that she is pregnant, so this time it is for Fang The family is also happy, and Zhou Zekai is also happy.
After sending red envelopes to his granddaughter, Zhou Zekai knew that Zhou Qianqian's belly was probably twins. In the past, because Fang Yi had been going out to work, the couple only saw each other once or twice a month, but now they stay together all day long. Looking at the store together, the situation is naturally different, so she was pregnant with a child early.
"Okay, okay, Qianqian, after you get pregnant, you need to rest a lot, Fang Yi, you can do the things in the store by yourself, let Qianqian take care of the baby at home, I think this baby is absolutely OK!"
Zhou Zekai couldn't be happier, seeing his daughter and son-in-law smiling, Fang Yi nodded again and again, thinking that this year is really a double blessing, not only making money, but also his wife is pregnant, which makes Fang Yi overjoyed.
The six-year-old Zhou Kexin was standing there, already a little suspicious of life, because she clearly remembered that the twins were conceived by her aunt when she was twelve years old. At that time, she was still an advanced mother, and it was difficult to have children. , but now it's so many years ahead of schedule? ?
