Koi baby helps his mother farm and becomes the richest man

Zhou Qi quickly pulled Zhou Mian aside, and Zhou Mian regretted his gaffe and quickly changed the subject.

Zhou Wen is a passionate girl, and everyone in her family knows that she likes Xu Xia.

However, as the saying goes, "a forced melon is not sweet", no matter how much Zhou Wen likes her, he is only one-sidedly enthusiastic, and no one can persuade her when it comes to feelings.

Zhou Wen pulled the corners of her lips and said frankly, "Big sister, second sister, I've figured it out. From now on, I won't chase after Xu Xia anymore.

“Can you force a cow to drink water?

"It's not like no one wants me, Zhou Wen."

Zhou Mian said hurriedly: "My Wenwen is so good, it's Xu Xia who has no taste."

Zhou Wen refuted seriously: "Second sister, Xu Xia is a very good person. You can't deny this person just because he doesn't accept me.

"I can only say that we two are not destined to be husband and wife.

"I believe that my future husband will be a very good person.

"And Xu Xia will also meet a girl he truly loves."

Zhou Qi was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She took Zhou Wen's hand and said, "Wenwen, you are so insightful!"

"Hehe!" Zhou Wen smiled sheepishly, "It's not that I'm all-knowing!

"As you know, many of the generals newly promoted by my father come from poor families.

"Now that he has military merit and has become a high-ranking official, he despises his wife and thinks she is not presentable, which has caused a lot of trouble.

“Many of them were already in a bad relationship.

“My mother always took me with her when she met those families.

"Alas, I just realized that when two people are forced to be together, it's like a house that has cracks from the beginning. If both of them are willing to repair it, it can still keep the house together and protect it from the wind and rain.

“But if even one of them has second thoughts, the house will collapse sooner or later.

“The one who withdraws quickly may not suffer any loss, but the one who repairs it with great care will suffer along with his children.

"I don't want to have a falling out with Xu Xia in the future, and I don't want my children to suffer any harm. It's better to let go and live in peace."

Zhou Mian's eyes sparkled, and he said with envy, "Wenwen, you are really amazing!"

"Oh!" Zhou Wen laughed, "What's so great about me?

"Big sister, second sister, didn't you say the mountains are fun? When can you take me there?

“I also want to see the mountain scenery here.

"Then you can teach me how to identify mountain products!"

The three sisters became happier and happier as they talked.

On the other side, after taking a short rest, Mrs. Zhou borrowed the hall in the front yard from Aunt Zhao and asked someone to invite Zhou Yu to discuss tomorrow's procedures.

Aunt Zhao was also talking to Qin Ying about this, her tone full of reluctance, "Yingzi, mother really can't bear to see you get married!"

"Then I won't get married?" Qin Ying said half-jokingly.

"That won't do!" Aunt Zhao said anxiously, "Don't talk nonsense! Such a good match!"

An An said with a smile: "That's right, mom got a good husband, grandma got a good son-in-law, uncle got a good brother-in-law, and I got a good dad, so we have everything!"

Qin Ying laughed and scolded: "You little thing, your mouth is full of nonsense!"

"Of course it's the truth!" An An hugged her arm and rubbed her little face against it, "Mom, it's such a great thing that we have a new baby in our family!"

Aunt Zhao and Qin Ying both laughed.

Qin Ying touched her face and said, "Silly child, this is not what it means to have a baby."

Time passed quickly, and it was already the next day. Aunt Zhao changed into new clothes and wore the gold hairpin on her head that she had always been reluctant to wear.

Zhao Hu was called back and he also cleaned up the situation neatly.

Mrs. Zhou went next door early in the morning, and brought Zhou Qi and her three sisters with her, and had breakfast there as well.

Just after the hour of Chen, the faint sound of gongs and drums could be heard outside, and it was getting louder and louder.

Aunt Zhao's nervousness turned into curiosity, and she asked, "What's going on? Who's getting married? I haven't heard of any wedding being held!"

Zhao Hu hurriedly said, "I'll go take a look!" and was about to run out.

Aunt Zhao grabbed him, slapped him on the back, and scolded him, "You little bastard! Can't you distinguish between the important and the unimportant? Right now, your sister's matter is the most important!"

Zhao Hu touched the back of his head sheepishly and said with a simple smile, "Yes, yes, mother, I was wrong!"

The loud sound of gongs and drums reached its highest point outside his house. The mother and daughter looked at each other for a moment, then ran out together.

Zhou Yu from next door had also accompanied Mrs. Zhou Er to the door and was talking to the person who led the gong and drum team.

The members of the gong and drum team were of all heights, weights, ages and ages. The clothes they wore were both new and old, but they were all ironed very flat.

The old and incomplete musical instruments were all cleaned to a gleam of cleanliness, and everyone had a genuine smile on their face.

The leader raised his hand and the festive drum music stopped.

He said loudly: "Today is a lucky day for the adults. If we didn't know it, it would be fine. But now that we know it, why don't we show some appreciation?

"We are from a poor family and have nothing else, but we can still afford to give a lively party!

"Sir, if you refuse, it will be very sad for the villagers!"

Zhou Yu was moved.

Mrs. Zhou Er smiled widely and said, "Wen Ruo, agree to their request!"

Zhou Yu nodded, and the festive music sounded again.

Mrs. Zhou Er happily brought the matchmaker to the Zhao family's door.

Things went very smoothly. After the two parties exchanged engagement letters, the Zhou family sent the prepared betrothal gifts, the first of which was a pair of crystal geese.

Mrs. Zhou Er explained, “My dear, it is reasonable for Gai Wen to go and shoot a pair of wild geese himself, but it is impossible at this time of year.

"But this pair of crystal goose shoes is pretty good..."

Aunt Zhao knew at a glance that this was carved from the crystal they found, and she felt even happier.

After the ceremony, Mrs. Zhou Er said with a guilty look on her face: "My in-laws are in a hurry, and the wedding date cannot be delayed. I can only let our Yingzi down!"

"Alas," Aunt Zhao waved her hands hurriedly, "Aunt in law, please stop saying that!

"We are not unreasonable people. Besides, it is more important for our two children to live a good life than anything else. Nothing else matters!

"Not to mention, we have everything we need, so there's no question of us being wronged."

Mrs. Zhou Er held Aunt Zhao's hand and said a lot of affectionate words, and she felt that they were closer.

The wedding date was set for Laba Festival.

Mrs. Zhou Er had originally brought two sets of wedding dresses. When she heard from her daughter that Qin Ying was very good at needlework, she took the wedding dresses to see Qin Ying and took her measurements personally.

Aunt Zhao and Qin Ying were worrying about their wedding dresses, and were very surprised to see the two sets brought by Mrs. Zhou Er.

Mrs. Zhou Er still felt embarrassed: "I'm afraid Yingzi won't like it..."

"It's very good," Qin Ying said hurriedly, "Thank you, Second Madam, for your thoughtful consideration."

Mrs. Zhou Er breathed a sigh of relief. "Since you said that, I'll take it seriously. You can modify the parts that don't fit yourself..."

“Honestly, my needlework is just so-so, I wouldn’t dare to do it myself.

"I asked a skilled embroiderer to make these two sets."
