Chapter 3499 Zhou Xia is back?
Yang Ruoqing was pulled back from her thoughts by Blacksmith Luo's voice.
"What did you say? Is there any news about Zhou Xia?" Blacksmith Luo asked in surprise.
Zhou Wang nodded with a depressed look on his face, "Yes, just yesterday, I dragged a street vendor back with a bag of food and two pieces of satin cloth,"
" She also asked the salesman to tell my mother that after a while, when she has established herself, he will come back to pick up my mother and enjoy her happiness!”
"My mother is so happy that she has stopped taking care of her grandson and doing housework for the past two days. She just sits on a stool at the entrance of the village and waits every day..."
"Enjoying happiness? Did I hear you correctly?" Blacksmith Luo looked shocked and couldn't believe it.
"She still wants to take your mother to enjoy her life? It would be great if she doesn't make your mother angry to death!" the man said angrily.
Zhou Wang remained silent.
Yang Ruoqing was also quite shocked, but she didn't say anything.
The last time I saw Zhou Xia was more than two years ago. The third young master of the Cao family in Qing'an County failed to flirt with the fifth aunt Bao Suyun. In anger, he made things difficult for his fifth uncle and even tried to seal up Tianxiang Tower in Qing'an County.
At that time, she dared to deal with the matter, but unexpectedly met Zhou Xia.
It was surprising at the time, because Zhou Xia ran away from home in Zhoujiacun, saying that she was going to the Xiangyang Palace in the capital to find the old concubine to preside over her engagement with the sixth prince Qi Xingyun.
However, Yang Ruoqing met Zhou Xia in Qing'an County. When she met Zhou Xia, she was already married.
My husband’s surname is Yu. He is an older bachelor from Qing’an County. He is an honest man and runs a small business.
Moreover, Zhou Xia was bought from Ren Yazi when he went to Changhuaizhou to purchase goods.
At that time, Yang Ruoqing promised Zhou Xia a hundred taels of silver in order to get Zhou Xia to make a gun and take revenge on the Cao family who bullied others.
Afterwards, Yang Ruoqing gave the one hundred taels of silver to Zhou Xia's husband and asked him to use it as business capital. From then on, she never contacted or met them again. .
More than two years have passed. Is it possible that Zhou Xia has matured after being with Lao Yu? Are you sensible?
Using the initial capital of one hundred taels of silver, he started a successful business, and gradually learned to give back to his parents' family and become a filial daughter?
Countless speculations flashed through his mind, and Blacksmith Luo's questioning voice rang out again in the main room.
"What is Zhou Xia doing now? Where does she live? What is she doing?" He asked again.
Mentioning this, Zhou Wang sneered.
“I didn’t even fart, so I asked the salesman to bring back something that cost less than dozens of pennies, and then made my mother sit stupidly at the entrance of the village and wait every day!” he said.
“There is no sincerity at all.” Zhou Wang continued.
"In the past two days, Xiaohuan has prepared meals every day and sent them to the entrance of the village for my mother to eat. Yesterday Xiaohuan wanted to feed the chickens, but the child was so naughty that he didn't pay attention. He even fell and almost knocked off his front teeth."
< br>"My mother didn't care anymore. She just sat at the entrance of the village and waited. She didn't come back at night and just followed the two of them. It was like that when Zhou Xia ran away from home years ago."
"This Dragon Boat Festival, I persuaded my mother to come over and have a meal with you, uncle, but she didn't come and said she would wait for Zhou Xia. It pissed me off!"
Zhou Wang shook his head as he spoke, and took a few big gulps of the tea in front of him.
Blacksmith Luo also took out his tobacco stick and took a few puffs in silence.
"Poor parents in the world, Zhou Xia has been your mother's pain for the rest of her life." Blacksmith Luo sighed.
"If Zhou Xia is really sensible and knows how to sympathize with your mother's hard work, and come back to live an honest life after a while, everyone will be happy."
"I'm just afraid that she will get lost. I don’t know if I come back, but it will still chill your mother’s heart,” Blacksmith Luo said worriedly. Zhou Wang said: "I am also so worried, but now I can't do anything. I can only worry, I can only pray, praying to God to bless her. She is serious this time. Don't let my mother feel cold again!"
Yang Ruoqing picked up the teapot and refilled the tea for Zhou Wang and Blacksmith Luo, saying: "Let nature take its course. It is useless to think so much and worry so much now."
"Take it one step at a time. Anyway, as long as you guys carry it, Cousin Zhou Wang, no matter how much trouble Zhou Xia makes, this family will never fall!" Yang Ruoqing said.
Zhou Wang nodded, "The Zhou family will not fall if I am here for a day."
Tiejiang Luo also said: "Yes, we won't talk about this Dragon Boat Festival. These troublesome things have come to an end, let’s have a good chat about home affairs.”
Zhou Wangye. He smiled and said: "Uncle, I want to go around the fish pond and fish."
"Haha, it was my uncle who taught you how to fish when you were a child. OK, uncle will accompany you." Let’s go fishing and talk while fishing. It’s more comfortable than sitting here.”
After saying this to Yang Ruoqing and Xiaohuan, they got up and left.
Xiaohuan teased Zhou Wang: "Have a good time fishing, I'm still looking forward to drinking fish soup!"
Zhou Wang raised his hand and made a 'steady' gesture, and Xiaohuan smiled happily. .
Yang Ruoqing was also very happy and followed behind and said: "You can go fishing to your heart's content. I will go to the fish pond to call you when dinner is served."
After Blacksmith Luo and Zhou Wang left , Yang Ruoqing continued to talk with Xiaohuan.
The ingredients for noon were almost ready in the morning. The chicken was stewed, the meat was cut, and the fish was cleaned.
Vegetables and other vegetables were all washed and cut and put in baskets for preparation. The rice dumplings were also cooked. It was lunch this time. She almost didn’t need to do anything. Aunt Wang Cuilian could handle it. What’s more? There are Xiaoyu and Ping'er.
Today is the festival, and everyone is having lunch together in a lively manner.
But Yang Ruoqing still planned to chat with Xiaohuan before going to the kitchen.
Unexpectedly, Xiaohuan said: "Qing'er, let's go to the kitchen, and I'll have a private chat with you and your aunt."
"About Zhou Xia, I'm going to tell you here. I'm worried that someone who comes later will hear it."
Yang Ruoqing understood, and quickly stood up and helped Xiaohuan to the backyard together. Before leaving, she told her to stay in the front yard. Chen'er and the others who were playing around took a look at the main room and called out when guests came.
With Chen'er here, you almost don't need to be warned about these things, Chen'er understands.
But Chen'er had discussed with Yang Ruoqing in advance and returned to Changping Village. He wanted to hide his clumsiness in certain aspects.
Try to make the people in the village look at him like a child.
Yang Ruoqing understood, so mother and son cooperated very well.
In the backyard kitchen, Wang Cuilian was washing rice and preparing to light a fire for cooking. One of Xiaoyu and Ping'er was preparing ginger and garlic, while the other was tending the two small stoves for stewing chicken and meat.
Seeing Xiaohuan coming, they all came over to greet Xiaohuan warmly.
Xiaohuan first praised Xiaoyu's cleverness, and then teased Ping'er: "I really cherish the last one or two in this yard, I will get married soon!"
Ping'er blushed with embarrassment and said to Xiaohuan: "You teased me the moment you came here. You are the mother of two children, and you are not serious at all."
Xiaohuan chuckled, "It's because of the mother of two children that I kindly remind you as a person who has been here. However, you married close by and came back just a few steps away. Unlike me, I'm a mother-in-law." Far away in the capital, thousands of miles apart, the child is four or five years old and has never been able to go back. "
