The villagers of Dahuang Village, under the arrangement of the captain Wu Youcheng, started a vigorous double-grab labor.
No, just after the double grab, the captain gave everyone a two-day break.
Zhou Fugui must be a drunkard, otherwise, today is not the market, why is Zhou Fugui going to town?
"Oh~! The sun is about to go down, why dad hasn't come back yet?" Zhou Aiqin stomped anxiously.
Wu Fengjiao has been busy at Lin Susu's house these days, and household chores such as cooking at home have fallen on Zhou Aiqin's head. Zhou Aiqin had come to ask Zhou Fugui to say a few words and left. It seems that we will have to wait a while today.
Brother and sister Su Xiaohui also went to town today, saying that some classmates in town invited them to play. Estimated time, the two brothers and sisters should also go home.
The food at home hasn't been prepared yet, so I don't know if Xiaohui Xiaoxia will lose their temper when they get home!
Zhou Aiqin felt a little anxious thinking about this.
"Oh~! Aegean is back." Zhou Aiqin's old lady Wang Xing'er was cooking in the kitchen. Hearing Zhou Aiqin's voice, she quickly handed over the work to her eldest daughter-in-law, patted the ashes on her body, and got out of the kitchen.
It is really appropriate to use the word "drilling" to describe Wang Myolie's action when she walks out of the kitchen.
The kitchen of Zhou Fugui’s house was built a dozen centimeters shorter than that of ordinary people, and the door was opened low. Every time the women went in and out, they had to be low and keep their heads down so that they would not touch the door frame.
Wang Xing'er murmured several times for Zhou Fugui to press a larger kitchen door again, and was scolded bloody by Zhou Fugui.
Anyway, the work in the kitchen was done by a few women in the family. When the meal came, Zhou Fugui and his sons would sit with their feet up, sitting at the Eight Immortals table in the main room, waiting for dinner.
Whether the kitchen door is big enough or high enough is not a matter of Zhou Fugui. Change the door frame, don't spend money? With that money, he might as well drink two taels of wine!
Zhou Aiqin knows that her father and a few brothers are delicious. Every time she goes back to her parents’ house, Zhou Aiqin will come back from her home to order some food. Sometimes it’s an egg or two, sometimes it’s a small piece of pork. Yes, never empty-handed every time.
Therefore, Myolie Wang was so excited when she heard Zhou Aiqin's voice.
Myolie Wang is about to die of sorrow. For dinner today, her family only has one boiled cabbage and pickled vegetables. Zhou Fugui and his sons are poor, but they can't be harsh on themselves in eating every day. Anyway, one purpose is to eat delicious food.
Myolie Wang’s boiled cabbage has already been cooked for two meals. Tonight is the third meal. Zhou Fugui can’t see the fish on the table for two days, it will be angry.
Wang Xing'er and her three daughters-in-law raised more than a dozen chickens, and most of the eggs they laid were eaten by Zhou Fugui and his son. There were a dozen eggs left, and Wang Xing'er wanted to change some seasonings such as oil and salt while waiting to go to the town to go to the market.
Otherwise, waiting for Zhou Fugui to give her money? It's easier to dream.
At this meal, Wang Xing'er hoped that Zhou Aiqin could come back with more to eat, and block Zhou Fugui's mouth, otherwise, she would be beaten again tonight.
"Aegean, where's the stuff? Put it in the hall?" Wang Xing'er saw Zhou Aiqin empty-handed and couldn't help walking to the hall.
"What?" Zhou Aiqin didn't understand the meaning of her mother's question at first. When Wang Xing'er looked around on the table in the main room, she realized it and said, "Mom, I'm in a hurry today. I didn't care about it."
"How can you come empty-handed? Your dad has nowhere to find his food!" Wang Xing'er collapsed.
The Su family's life is much better than theirs. I heard that the old woman Wu Fengjiao made a fortune a few years ago and she has a lot of valuable things in her hands!
This dead Nizi, forgot his father and mother brothers who were starving and freezing at home after enjoying the blessing? Wang Myolie held a fire in her heart.
"Mom, my dad went to town, did he say when to go home?" Zhou Aiqin ignored Wang Xing'er's face and asked herself.
In Zhou's family, Wang Xing'er is synonymous with wimpy. Anyway, Zhou Fugui had the final say about everything in the Zhou family, and Zhou Aiqin hadn't seen it much since childhood.
"How do I know that I will be back when it's time to come back." Wang Xing'er couldn't help but curled his lips and said.
Myolie Wang didn't see Zhou Aiqin take the things home, and didn't care about her attitude at all, so she felt uneasy.
"Oh~! What can I do about this?" Zhou Aiqin couldn't help but turn around in a hurry when he saw that he was really gone today.
Seeing that it's getting late, she can't wait in her natal house forever! I blamed the dead old woman, if it weren't for her to stay away from home all the time, she wouldn't have to be so embarrassed.
At the critical moment, Zhou Aiqin threw this scapegoat on Wu Fengjiao's head again.
"Sister, what can you do with your dad?" At this moment, Zhou Aiguo got out of the bedroom sleepily.
The Zhou family brothers are like the old man Zhou Fuguo. Among them, Zhou Aiguo is the most sturdy, with a height of about 1.8 meters, standing in front of Zhou Aiqin, who is 1.6 meters, like an iron tower.
Zhou Aiguo is forty-five this year and has a skill in killing pigs.
It's a pity that people couldn't get enough to eat a few years ago. Apart from feeding a task pig and dragging it to the town's supply and marketing agency to hand in the task at the end of the year, there were no extra pigs to ask Zhou Aiguo to kill.
The Zhou family had no way to let Zhou Aiguo go to the meat joint factory in the town. Zhou Aiguo was full of energy and could only dig in the ground like everyone else.
Zhou Aiguo was awakened by Zhou Aiqin's voice. Zhou Aiguo ran to He Zhuzi's house for two or two drinks at noon today. After returning home, he was a little sleepy. It happened that he didn't have to work today. Zhou Aiguo slept more than one in the afternoon until now.
"Patriotic, you talk to Aegean for a while, I'll go to the kitchen to fry a dish." Seeing that my expectations fell through, Wang Xing'er was too lazy to talk nonsense with Zhou Aiqin and hurried back to the kitchen.
Before Zhou Fugui went home, Wang Xing'er was going to take out two stolen eggs and fry a green pepper egg with the green pepper just picked from the vegetable field. Otherwise, Zhou Fugui went home after a drink and saw a table with a clear soup and water, and he would definitely get angry.
"Brother, did you drink at noon? Where did you drink it?" As Zhou Aiguo approached, Zhou Aiqin took a few steps away from the smell of wine, a little disgusted.
"He Zhuzi caught a big fish by the river today. It's ten kilograms. Call me to have two sips." Zhou Aiguo smiled and compared the length of the fish with his hands. Good fellow, it's a full ten or twenty centimeters. It's long!
"There is such a big fish in the Peach Blossom Creek? Brother, did you go to catch fish in the deep pool on the other side of the Wild Mountain?" Zhou Aiqin's eyes widened, showing a little horror.
