Koi baby helps his mother farm and becomes the richest man

Aunt Zhao kept talking about the last time the Hu family came to cause trouble.

An An clenched his fists, "Hmph! If they dare to come again, I'll beat them to death!"

"Oh my, my little ancestor!" Aunt Zhao said hurriedly, "Don't say that! You little kids, why are you fighting and killing each other? Don't say that again!"

Qin Ying also said: "Your grandma is right! An An, don't have such thoughts in the future! Come, mother will take you to bed!"

He took off his shoes, got on the kang, and lay down with An An in his arms.

Aunt Zhao lowered her voice slightly and said, "It's all thanks to Mr. Zhou who's here to make decisions for ordinary people like us. Otherwise, the Hu family would come back again and again, like toads jumping on our feet, biting us or not. It's really annoying!"

Zhou Mian chuckled softly, finding what she said interesting.

Zhou Qi asked softly, "Sister Qin... have you never complained?"

"What's the point of complaining?" Aunt Zhao looked at Qin Ying. "I'm not bragging, but my Yingzi is a strong person. She said that instead of complaining about this and that, she should think about how to survive.

"The world is bad, and we can't rely on God. If we don't find a solution ourselves, we'll starve to death!

"Now that Lord Zhou is willing to make the decision for us, why shouldn't we take advantage of this opportunity and live a good life?"

The two sisters were shocked.

Aunt Zhao praised Qin Ying's intelligence and diligence again. Qin Ying's ears were burning, and she whispered to her several times to remind her to stop, but Aunt Zhao pretended not to hear.

The two Zhou sisters also listened with great interest. Zhou Mian even suggested, "Why don't we talk outside? We won't disturb An An's sleep."

"Don't be afraid!" Aunt Zhao waved her hand carelessly. "Our An'an is also a very well-behaved and easy-to-take child. He's not afraid of quarrels at all."

Qin Ying looked down at An An in her arms. Hmm, she was indeed fast asleep. Just as she was about to get up, Aunt Zhao held her down and said, "There's nothing to do now. You should get some sleep too." She pulled the quilt over her and told the two sisters to go to Zhao Hu's room. "Come on, I'll take you to see some mushrooms!"

The two sisters were also very curious and stood up immediately after hearing this.

Qin Ying thought it was a good thing that the two sisters were willing to chat with Aunt Zhao like this, so she didn't stop them. She closed her eyes peacefully and fell asleep soon.

On the other side, the two sisters didn't think too much and went straight into the west room. When they saw the smaller kang and the simple cabinets, they were stunned.

Aunt Zhao explained quickly, "This was originally my son Huzi's house. I asked him to live with a fellow villager in the village these days because I was worried that you would feel uncomfortable having a grown man at home.

"His bedding was also taken away. No one in the village was rich, so they didn't have extra bedding.

"Well, forget about him. Come, look at the mushrooms!"

The two sisters' eyes fell on the densely growing mushrooms. They couldn't name them, but there were three kinds in total, all grown in long wooden troughs and neatly stacked on the shelves.

The two of them couldn't help but get closer to take a closer look. Zhou Mian even asked, "Aunt Zhao, how did you grow these? I only know of wild mushrooms, but I've never seen anyone grow them..."

"Speaking of which..." Aunt Zhao praised Qin Ying again.

Zhou Qi couldn't help but admire: "Sister Qin is really amazing!"

"If you ask me, you educated people are amazing!" Aunt Zhao said with emotion, "If Yingzi hadn't studied, she wouldn't have known so much!

"Otherwise, I would have to let Hu Zi learn to read and write with his sister! People will become smarter if they read!

"Master Zhou was able to become an official because he was a good scholar, wasn't he?"

The two sisters couldn't help laughing, but they couldn't refute it, after all, the person being praised was their own brother.

Aunt Zhao praised Zhang Jinzhi again: "You have told the villagers a lot of useful things, otherwise we country people would be like blind people with open eyes!

"It's just that Mr. Zhang doesn't have much free time, otherwise we all like to listen to his stories about the outside world.

"Mr. Zhang also said that he came from a poor family and relied on studying to get to where he is today. It shows that studying is useful!"

"Not entirely," Zhou Mian said with a bitter smile, "Aunt, to be honest, we have all been studying since we were young.

"But when something unexpected happens, all that knowledge won't save you!"

"That makes sense," Aunt Zhao sighed, "Take what happened when we visited the grave last year...

"If we were as capable as Brother Xu, we could have taken care of those bastards in Gaojiatun by ourselves!

"But, every failure makes one wiser, isn't it? After returning, Hu Zi pestered Brother Xu to learn Kung Fu, and then he came back to teach us.

"I know. Take me for example. With my old arms and legs, I can't learn any real kung fu. But Yingzi is right. If I learn kung fu, I will know how to use my strength skillfully.

"We country folk don't have anything but a lot of skills and the ability to use our strength. Even if we meet three or five men, we won't be afraid.

"Mr. Zhang also helped us find a book on acupuncture points. Once we memorized them all, we were no longer afraid.

"To be honest, although both involve exerting physical effort, doing farm work and practicing martial arts are completely different. Just look at it..."

She showed her arms, "This is much stronger and more powerful than before!"

The two sisters couldn't help but look thoughtful.

Aunt Zhao asked them to sit on the kang. There were mushrooms grown in the room, and even if Zhao Hu was not there, the kang would be heated, so it was warm.

The two sisters hesitated for a moment, and suddenly remembered what An An mentioned about "When in Rome, do as the Romans do", so they sat down on the edge of the kang.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Qi asked, "Aunt, your son is spending the New Year at someone else's house... isn't that bad?"

Aunt Zhao looked up at them, and after thinking about what she was saying twice, she said, "Miss Zhou, I'm a rough person and I only speak rough words. Please don't be offended by them, whether they sound good or not.

"I know you've suffered in the past, but that's all in the past, just like a nightmare. No matter how scary the dream is, when you wake up, the clouds in the sky will disperse.

"You keep on forgetting it and are just torturing yourselves. When a person's mind is troubled, he will definitely have trouble eating and sleeping. Over time, even a strong body will be ruined.

“This is still my own fault.

"You still have relatives! Let's not talk about others, just talk about Lord Zhou. He was afraid that you would be afraid of seeing a man, so you didn't even dare to show your face and went to Uncle Jiu's house early.

"It was Lord Zhou who suggested that you come live in my house. He said he wanted you to relax and not be like flowers in a greenhouse, being spoiled by your old man.

"We found someone to help build the house early on. We didn't have the two rooms you originally lived in. We are a poor family with not that many people, so these three rooms are enough for us to live in.

"Master Zhou also gave us money for food and lodging, and promised to send you some delicious food every once in a while, so he asked us to help prepare it.

"I also specifically told you what not to say and what not to do in front of you, otherwise I wouldn't have sent Hu Zi away."
