The young couple from the farm fights back
Chapter 74 Wang Encouraged Zhou Lao 2 to Steal the Seedlings
Old Zhou's family.
"Boss, boss~"
Wang heard some gossip at the village entrance and ran home in a hurry. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw her mother coming out with her two-year-old son in her arms.
Ever since Lin and Zhou Xingyue were brought to Beijing, Wang relied on the fact that she had the final say in the Zhou family and would ask Zhou Laoer to come to the town from time to time to bring his mother and children back to stay for a while.
Although Wang had given birth to a son, Lin, who deeply despised the second wife, did not treat her own grandson well. When the child was six months old, Wang was sent to her mother's family in town to be raised. The excuse was that the Zhou family's eldest grandson was born into wealth and could not be raised in the countryside.
The second son and his wife thought what the mother said made sense, so they happily sent their son to Wang's family. Lin would occasionally go to the market in town and send two taels of meat to the Wang family as child support. Fortunately, Wang's father was a small manager and had a good monthly income. Moreover, Wang's eldest brother and his wife were easy to talk to, so they did not stop Zhou and Wang from sending the child back to his family to be raised.
Zhou Laoer was chopping firewood in the yard. Hearing this, he straightened up and asked, "What's up? What did you hear again?"
Zhou Laoer knows his wife too well. He always likes to hang out with the gossipy women at the village entrance, whether he has something to do or not.
"Oh~, my good boy~" When Wang saw her son, she immediately walked forward with a smile in her eyes and hugged the boy in her arms.
Two-year-old Zhou Baoliang looks very much like Wang. After all, children raised in the town are fairer than those raised in the countryside. His little face is as white and tender as a doll in a New Year picture and is adorable.
Wang's mother glanced at her noisy daughter with displeasure. She was already a mother, but she was always so dishonest that she married an honest man. If it were any other family, she would have been tortured to death.
"What new things have you heard? Tell me about it."
Wang teased her son, remembering what she had heard before. She looked at Zhou Lao Er with wide eyes, "Ah, yes, Master, have you heard that Jiang knows that medical skill?"
Zhou Laoer: ...
Wang's mother was confused for a long time, and then she seemed to remember that Jiang was the eldest sister-in-law of the old Zhou family who had been separated. She had met her a few times before, and she was a vulgar country woman who was not presentable.
"What? Medical skills?" Zhou Laoer almost thought he had misheard.
Wang nodded. "Everyone in Shili Village is saying how great the Jiang family's medical skills are. Last night, Zhou Dashuan's wife gave birth prematurely, and the aunt in the clan said she couldn't be saved, but Jiang family managed to save Zhao and her child."
"What? Are you serious?" Zhou Laoer loosened his grip and the axe fell to the ground and almost hit his foot.
Seeing this, Wang's mother quickly reminded him, "Oh, be careful, don't hurt your feet."
Zhou Lao Er touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Yes, mother is right."
Then he asked his wife, "I've never heard that my eldest sister-in-law learned medicine from anyone before. How could she know medicine? But she's just an errand boy?"
"No, I'm talking about the Jiang family." Wang curled her lips. "My mother was right to scold me before. The eldest wife is a black-hearted person. The couple hid it very well. Now they have separated from our Zhou family. They go up the mountain to collect yams and have learned some amazing medical skills. They are hiding away and making money."
Wang's mother felt a little jealous when she heard this. She had also heard from her daughter-in-law Wang that the two couples who had separated from each other sold the mountain products they brought back in pairs. No farmer in the surrounding area could make so much money.
"Your mother-in-law is right. This black-hearted couple hid their deeds before they separated from your Zhou family. They were afraid that you brothers would learn from them. Now they have divided everything. Even if they make money, the Zhou family won't get any benefit at all."
Wang felt that what her mother said was correct and nodded repeatedly. "That's right, mother, you don't know, but Uncle Zhou Er also made money with their eldest wife. The two families even bought land together. I don't know what kind of crops they planted. When the villagers asked about it, Uncle Zhou Er's family kept their mouths shut and told no one."
When Wang's mother heard about this, she couldn't help but stand up with her hands in indignation: "Well, you don't help your own brothers, but go out and make money with others. What kind of reason is this?"
Zhou Laoer knew that his mother-in-law was unaware of the inner workings of the Zhou family, so he felt a little embarrassed when he heard her words. After all, his mother-in-law was standing up for the second branch of the family, and he couldn't bring himself to criticize his elders.
Wang's mother's eyes rolled, and she thought of something. She curled her lips and said, "Tomorrow, Second Brother, go take a look at their fields. If they see anything rare, take some back to our backyard and plant it. After all, we can plant it in our own yard, so no one outside can see it."
Wang's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she felt that her mother's suggestion was very good. "Yes, mother is right, head of the family, you should bring back a few seedlings for our family tonight. It's not right for the eldest wife to take all the good things."
Zhou Laoer: ...
What the hell?
His mother-in-law and daughter-in-law asked him to steal seedlings from the fields in the dark?
He couldn't do this. If it was discovered, it would be a big deal. Farmers in the countryside focused on growing crops. If the matter was exposed and reported to the clan, their second branch would be in trouble.
Seeing the hesitant look on the face of the head of the family, Wang shoved her son back into her arms and approached him, hands on her hips. "Why, you don't even dare to do such a small thing? If I were here, I would definitely have asked you to do it. Anyway, I don't care. You must pull two seedlings from the field tonight for me."
"I, Wang, just don't believe it. If the first wife can get it, why can't we, the second wife, get it?"
Wang's mother felt her daughter's words made sense, and nodded as she looked at her son-in-law: "We don't need too much, just pull out a dozen seedlings. When we have seeds of our own in the future, we won't have to worry about being jealous of other families."
Listening to his wife and mother-in-law's words, Zhou Laoer felt choked with sobs. In fact, he was not jealous of the first wife at all, because he firmly believed that soon, his mother and fourth sister would send someone to bring their second wife to Beijing to enjoy the good life together.
But now, facing the two determined women, he couldn't deny or agree, and he felt uncomfortable holding it in.
Anyway, Wang doesn't care about this. If the man in charge doesn't go to pull up the seedlings tonight, she won't allow Zhou Laoer to touch her in the future. Can't she punish him?
At night, Zhou Chunfeng returned to the room after taking a bath and found An Ge'er holding the corner of Jing Ge'er's clothes and sleeping soundly.
Jiang Li sat there helplessly, pulling Ang'er's hand away several times, and the little guy would open his eyes and look for his second brother.
Ever since Jing'er played with An'er every day, the little guy only recognized his second brother. But Jing'er was a deep sleeper and refused to get up no matter how much he was shaken. Otherwise, Jiang Li would call the two little ones to sleep with her in the main room.
The kang bed was so small, and Heng Ge'er was sleeping in it. Jiang Li was worried about Zhou Chunfeng sleeping with three children, so she had to hold the children down at night.
"How about you go to the main house tonight!" Jiang Li suggested.
Zhou Chunfeng put down the handkerchief he was using to wipe his face, took a deep breath, and said silently, "Brothers, they won't make any noise when they go to bed, so let the three of them sleep in the same room."
Jiang Li blinked: "Why, you want to live in the same room with Que Ge'er?"
Is Brother Que used to sleeping with him?
Zhou Chunfeng: ...
"Why can't we sleep in the same room? How long do you plan to keep your room separate from your husband?"
Jiang Li: ...
