The Journey Of The Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 40: resentment

Views:

Zhulan had never seen the autumn harvest. A quick glance at the news showed that most modern harvests were mechanized, fast and labor-saving. She was very curious about the ancient harvest and wanted to see it for herself. She didn’t know if it was because she gradually adapted to her body, but her memory of many small things in her original body had become blurred. Fortunately, she remembered the characters and major events clearly.

Zhu Lan asked Zhou Shuren, "Do you want to go and take a look?"

Zhou Shuren had no intention of going there. He was not curious at all. He had seen that there were farmlands near the orphanage, but when he met Zhulan's sparkling eyes, he swallowed the words on his lips and put down the book in his hand, "Okay."

Zhulan took out the food for lunch and gave it to Li, and gave Li a few cents to buy tofu and meat, and then went to the fields with Zhou Shuren.

Zhoujia Village is located in the north. The leaves of the trees have turned yellow and the scenery all over the mountain is particularly beautiful. The only ones who can appreciate it are Zhulan and his wife. Everyone in the village is busy with the autumn harvest in the fields!

The Zhou family's land was easy to find in large tracts. The six adult men were extremely efficient and had already harvested two acres of rice. Pheasants love to eat rice, and as the rice seedlings were cut down, many pheasants were startled.

Zhulan had never eaten pheasants before. "There are so many pheasants, so just catch a few."

The original taste must be good!

Zhou Shuren has experience trapping birds. "Want to eat?"

"Of course I did. You said that in modern times, everything is enough and nothing tastes good. But in ancient times, I was greedy for everything I saw and even dreamed about meat."

I dreamed of chewing pig's trotters several times, and when I woke up in the morning, my drool was on my pillow. Later, I asked Zhao to make a pillowcase so that Zhou Shuren wouldn't find out.

Zhou Shuren, "There are a lot of pheasants here. I'll come over this afternoon to make some traps to see if I can catch them."

"You still have this skill?"

"Trapping pigeons, sparrows practice."

Zhulan believed in Zhou Shuren's craftsmanship and had already thought about how to cook a pheasant. While sweeping the rice fields, she saw Wang Ru and several other maids. Then Zhulan remembered that the Wang family's land was adjacent to the Zhou family's, and it would be hard for the two families to avoid quarreling over this fate.

The three girls were working hard to cut the rice seedlings. Wang Ru had never done any work before, and she didn't cut much in half a day. From time to time, she turned her head to stare at Wang Laosi with hatred in her eyes. She hated Wang Laosi. The plot was too deviated. In the original plot, Wang Laosi's family loved each other.

Now the Zhou family no longer involves Wang Zhang's attention. Wang Zhang only focuses on Wang Laosi's family, forcing Wang Laosi to rebel severely. It would be like this before the child is born. If a boy is really born, Wang Ru and the others will only be sold.

Zhulan muttered, "No wonder!"

Zhou Shuren has sharp ears, "What's the wonder?"

Zhu Lan pulled Zhou Shuren back and whispered as they walked, "In the original text, I felt that the loss of Sun's child was an accident. I had speculated when I first came here. Now it is 80% certain that Wang Ru planned the loss. Wang Ru was afraid that Wang Lao Si really had a son and she would not be able to control it, so she decided to do it once and for all."

Zhou Shuren paused and looked back at Wang Ru, who was full of resentment. "There will be trouble in the Wang family tonight."

Zhu Lan was stunned, "You mean something will happen to the Sun family?"

Zhou Shuren, "Wang Laosi and his wife only care about their son and don't care about their daughter's life or death. Wang Ru can't stand it anymore."

Zhulan shuddered. As a member of the Red Flag, she really couldn't do anything to harm human life. Wang Ru refreshed her cognition, "This guy is really cruel. He will do anything to achieve his goal. An unborn child is also a human life."

Zhou Shuren patted Zhulan's shoulder and said, "I'm here."

Zhulan was conflicted, "Should I do it?"

She swallowed back the rest of the words. It didn't matter if she couldn't bear it for a moment. If Wang Laosi and his wife had treated all the children equally, the child would have been born safely. The problem was that they didn't treat their daughter as a human being. If Wang Laosi and his wife didn't change, the child would not be born. Except for Wang Zhang, who couldn't bear to see Wang Laosi become extinct, the other branches of the Wang family would rather the child not be born.

Zhou Shuren saw the changes in Zhulan and was happy. He was not afraid of good hearts, but he was afraid of bad hearts. That was what made people afraid. He squeezed Zhulan's hand and said, "We can't help with this matter. The root cause lies with Wang Laosi and his wife. They are responsible for most of the problem."
