"Well, I don't know when my son will come back. What if he never comes back?"
At this point, Zhou's mother's eye circles gradually turned red.
Her youngest son had not suffered much since he was a child. Although in letters, Zhou Ziwen always emphasized that he was living a good life, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. Who knew the kind words he said specifically to reassure them.
She still understands the principle of reporting good news but not bad news.
"I'm already looking for a relationship here. Sister Wang has promised me that she will find a way to get our son back in two or three years." Dad Zhou on the side spoke to comfort him.
"It's no use just bringing your son back. Where is our daughter-in-law? I heard they are still two sisters..." Zhou's mother glared at her husband. At this moment, she didn't like anyone.
Seeing his mother like this, Zhou Ziwen's eldest and second brothers hurriedly lowered their heads and looked at the marks on the table in trance.
"This...then I will think of a way." Hearing this, Lao Zhou was also a little irritable.
In order to get his youngest son back, he spent a lot of favors.
And although they agreed, they couldn't get the person back immediately. They had to wait at least two years.
But this brat found him a daughter-in-law at this time, and now he was stumped.
To bring one person back, he might be able to do it with some delay and some management, but if he wants to bring two or three back, he won't be able to do it even if he has great abilities!
At this moment, he even thought, what if his youngest son has a child in two years?
Two or three years later, maybe I will have two children.
“Alas...”
Lao Zhou lit a cigarette irritably and took a deep breath.
......
Here, Lao Yiyi's family is worried about Zhou Ziwen's affairs. On the other side, Lao Chen's family far away in Hangzhou is also very worried.
"Xiaoyi said she is getting married."
Chen Luodong, the father of the Chen sisters, had a complicated expression.
Although in this era, it was normal to get married on a blind date, but his daughter went to the countryside and was getting married in a few months. As a father, he couldn't react.
"It's good, but Xiao Zhou's hometown is a bit far away from us." Mother Chen seemed quite happy.
It’s not that she’s arrogant, it’s mainly that she feels at ease with her daughter. Of course, the one who feels at ease is Chen Shiying.
Her eldest daughter has been smart since she was a child. When she is at home, she is the one who feels most at ease.
In the letter, her eldest daughter praised Zhou Ziwen very much, which also made Chen Ma have a very good impression of this son-in-law whom she had not met yet.
"I've never seen this brat named Zhou Ziwen. Who knows if he deceived Xiaoyi with his sweet words!" Father Chen said unconvinced.
"Xiaoying has already said that Xiaozhou is an outstanding child. Look at him, he has only been in the countryside for a long time, and now he is the leader of the production team."
"Yes. I feel relieved that he will take care of Xiaoyi." Mother Chen was still smiling.
Of course, the honeyed roe deer meat and Polygonum multiflorum sent by Zhou Ziwen must be indispensable for this.
Being able to get so many things in the countryside and send them over, she had a very good impression of Zhou Ziwen, her future son-in-law.
"I'm not worried." Father Chen was still muttering to the side.
It is said that the daughter was the lover in the previous life of her father, and the son-in-law was the enemy in the previous life.
Dad Chen has a natural hostility toward this brat he has never met before.
"So what if you don't worry? Seeing that you can prevent them from getting married?" Chen's mother asked with a smile.
Mother Chen is the editor of a newspaper and has a relatively open mind. She remains supportive of her youngest daughter finding her own love.
"Alas..." Father Chen sighed, with endless sorrow in his eyes.
——
Here, Zhou Ziwen still didn’t know that his future mother-in-law was very satisfied with him, and he also didn’t know that his future father-in-law didn’t like him. But I guess he wouldn't care even if he knew.
What do you care about? At most, I can give him two grandchildren back in a few years.
He didn't believe it. When he saw his grandchildren, his father-in-law dared not to see him.
There was nothing to say all night. When he got up the next day, Zhou Ziwen followed the Chen sisters to the production team.
During the morning meeting, the team leader told everyone the good news about the mushroom fruiting in the mushroom house, which immediately caused a burst of cheers.
“I knew that Zhou Zhiqing was a good person. Look, didn’t he cultivate mushrooms?”
“Yes, I heard that mushrooms are more valuable than vegetables. Look. This year we can have a good year.”
"No, I've found out. There are several thousand kilograms of mushrooms! If they are all sold out, they can be sold for more than a thousand yuan."
"There are so many, it's huge."
...
Seeing everyone's happy faces, Zhou Ziwen also became happy.
Although not everyone in the village is a good person, most people are quite simple.
Zhou Ziwen was quite happy to be able to do something for the village.
“Brother Ziwen, many people are praising you!” Chen Qiaoyi said excitedly from the side.
"You are also a member of the Mushroom Group, and you have a share of the credit for this."
As soon as Zhou Ziwen said these words, Chen Qiaoyi immediately became proud and even raised his chin. A little higher.
After the morning meeting, some villagers wanted to follow them to see the excitement, but they were scolded back by the team leader.
It's working time now, how can I wander around?
When we arrived at the mushroom room, the captain and Wu Dagang came.
Under the watchful eyes of the village leaders, Zhou Ziwen announced the start of construction.
Knowing that mushrooms will be collected today, the members of the mushroom team have already prepared.
Some team members brought some baskets from the production team warehouse, and other team members started busy picking mushrooms.
Of course, Zhou Ziwen doesn't need to do this kind of thing himself. After all, he is also a team leader.
He stood next to the team leader and Wu Dagang, shouting from time to time, asking the team members to be careful not to damage the mushrooms.
These mushrooms have to be sent to the county. If nothing else, at least they are in good quality.
He is not bragging, the taste and quality of the mushrooms he grows are better than those seen on the market.
When this batch of mushrooms is sold, after everyone has tasted it, they won’t have to worry about selling them next time.
"Xiao Zhou, can't we plant another batch this year?" The captain couldn't help but ask as he watched clusters of fresh mushrooms being picked.
"It will definitely not work this year. The weather will get cooler soon. You know better than me what the weather is going to be like here. It might snow next month. If it snows, these mushrooms will freeze. Bad." Zhou Ziwen shook his head.
If you work hard, these difficulties can be overcome, but Zhou Ziwen doesn't want to be so tired.
When the village distributes grain in a few days, there will basically be no need to go to work.
When the time comes, no one will be working and only their mushroom team will be working. Isn’t this a lack of heart!
After the holiday, he still has a lot to do!
After he and the Chen family host a banquet, he will have to renovate his love nest, which is a big project. (End of this chapter)
