Reborn in the 1970s, Zhang Sanniu's new life

Chapter 77 Dealing with Old Man Wang and Wang Cuihua

The next day, Liu Hao got up early and went to the kitchen to cook with Zhang Laosan!

Zhang Laosan was cooking when he saw Liu Hao come in and said, "Hey! Liu Hao, why are you up so early!"

"Uncle, I'm here to learn how to cook from you. Once I've learned, I can cook for San Niu too!" Liu Hao said.

"Good, good, you're a sensible and thoughtful child. It's San Niu's good fortune to have found you," Zhang Laosan said happily!

"Uncle, I'm the lucky one! Let me help you start the fire!" Liu Hao said.

“Okay, you sit here and tend the fire, I’ll go get the eggs, we’ll make tea eggs,” Zhang Laosan said.

"Okay, Uncle, you do it, and I'll learn from you," Liu Hao said!

“Okay, this is easy to learn. You’ll learn it in one go,” Zhang Laosan said.

Liu Hao and Zhang Laosan chatted and cooked in the kitchen, which quickly brought them closer together!

San Niu woke up and knew that Liu Hao had gone to the kitchen. She washed up and waited for dinner!

After a while, Zhang Laosan led Liu Hao and the others in and brought in all the food!

"Honey, you're up! Come and eat!" Liu Hao said.

"So much delicious food was made today, I want to eat more!" San Niu picked up the egg and started peeling it!

"Sweetie, you eat the bun first. Uncle also steamed some sweet buns today. They're very small, so you can have one," Liu Hao said.

"That's great! Daddy made such a wonderful dish! I can eat one!" San Niu said happily.

"Okay, if you like it, I'll make it for you again next time," Zhang Laosan said.

“Okay, Dad, you’re so good,” San Niu said!

"Big Girl, Second Girl, eat some too. See if it's good. There are also meat buns. You all eat!" Zhang Laosan said.

"Delicious! This big meat bun looks so appetizing! Third Sister, can I have one?" said Second Sister.

“Okay, then if you eat the meat bun, you can’t eat the egg,” San Niu said!

"Okay, I'll just have meat buns," Erniu said.

"Baby, eat the egg," Liu Hao said.

“Okay, I’ll definitely finish them all. The sugar buns are so delicious!” San Niu said.

"It's delicious, isn't it! I knew you'd like it," Zhang Laosan said!

The family happily ate a hearty breakfast, completely unaffected by Wang Cuihua's situation!

After lunch, Da Niu and Er Niu went to school!

Zhang Laosan and Liu Hao cleared the dishes and went to the kitchen!

In the kitchen, Liu Hao said, "Uncle, I'll wash the dishes. You go buy groceries and a lock!"

“Okay, is there anything you want to eat? I’ll buy it and cook it for you,” Zhang Laosan said.

"Uncle, I'm not a picky eater. Just make and buy some of San Niu's favorite foods," Liu Hao said.

"Okay, I'm off then," Zhang Laosan said, then rode his bicycle to buy groceries!

After washing the dishes and chopsticks, Liu Hao returned to his room and asked San Niu, "Honey, do you have any other clothes to wash?"

"No, we left them all in the bathroom," San Niu said.

"Okay, I'm going to do the laundry," Liu Hao said.

Liu Hao put the laundry into the washing machine, added some laundry detergent and water, turned on the washing machine, and started washing the clothes!

Liu Hao went to the kitchen to boil water. After boiling the water, he put it into a hot water bottle for San Niu. He then put some brown sugar and ginger slices in a pot, boiled it for a while, and then put it all into a thermos!

Once everything was ready, Liu Hao took the hot water bottle and thermos and came into the room, saying, "Honey, I've made you some brown sugar water, don't forget to drink it. Here's the hot water bottle, warm your tummy. I'm going to do the laundry!"

“Okay, Brother Hao is so thoughtful and capable!” San Niu said.

"Sweetie, go get some sleep! I need to watch the washing machine and do the laundry," Liu Hao said, closing the door and leaving.

After a while, Zhang Laosan returned with his purchases!

"Uncle, you're back so soon!" Liu Hao said.

"Yes, I bought the things and came right back. I'll hurry over to make some brown sugar water for San Niu and pack a hot water bottle," Zhang Laosan said, holding the groceries.

"Uncle, don't worry, I've got everything ready," Liu Hao said!

"Really? That's great! I was worried! Liu Hao, you've been a huge help at home!" Zhang Laosan said.

"It's only right that I do what I should do for San Niu, Uncle, you don't need to be so polite," Liu Hao said!

"Yes, I love hearing that. Is San Niu asleep?" Zhang Laosan chatted happily with Liu Hao while picking vegetables!

"Not yet, I'm reading a book!" Liu Hao replied.

"Oh, San Niu isn't feeling well, we need to be careful and take good care of her," Zhang Laosan said.

"I understand. We definitely need to take good care of her, otherwise she'll suffer later. So, Uncle, please work hard now so we can all relax once San Niu is better," Liu Hao said.

“Yes, yes, you’re absolutely right,” said Zhang Laosan!

"Hey, brother-in-law, I heard that my sister made San Niu angry and she kicked her out of the house. What happened?" Wang Dayong asked.

"What happened? Didn't your father tell you?" Zhang Laosan said.

"No! He just said my sister was sent back to his place by San Niu, and he didn't say anything else, that's what Wang Dayong said!"

"That's because he's too ashamed to say it. I'm asking you, your father's legs hurt, do you know that?" Zhang Laosan said!

"No! He came to my house this morning. His leg was perfectly fine," Wang Dayong said!

“Fine, I’ll tell you why your sister was sent back. It’s because your father keeps faking illness and using excuses to ask your sister for money, six or seven hundred each time. What does he want? Does he want your sister to give him all our family’s money? What is he thinking? Does he have no shame? How much money has your sister given him every year over the years? Does he think we don’t know? He’s getting more and more outrageous. Go back and tell your father that if he doesn’t return the money today, he can leave it to your sister to support him in his old age! We don’t keep ungrateful children in our family!” Zhang Laosan said angrily.

Wang Dayong, realizing he was dead, said, "Brother-in-law, if you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known. Besides, my father never told me anything, and he never gave me any money. Don't worry, I'll go and settle accounts with him. I'll see what he wants to do with so much money!" With a dark face, Wang Dayong went home to find Old Man Wang.

After a while, Wang Jun and Huang Xuan arrived.

"Uncle Zhang, Brother Hao, are you helping me?" Huang Xuan asked.

"Wait a moment, the lawyer will be here soon," Liu Hao said.

"It's alright, you go ahead and help, I'll help you pick the vegetables," Huang Xuan said.

“Alright, there are stools over there, you guys sit and work. I’ll go stew the chicken first, so we can have a good drink at noon,” Zhang Laosan said.

"Uncle Zhang, go ahead! We'll definitely pick the vegetables properly," Huang Xuan said!

Zhang Laosan went to make chicken soup!

"Xuanzi, I didn't expect you to be so good at picking vegetables," Wang Jun said!

“Of course! At home, my dad and I often pick vegetables. Unlike you, a spoiled young master who can’t do anything!” Huang Xuan said.

"You think you're so great? Fine! I didn't learn it before, I can learn it in no time!" Wang Jun retorted, unconvinced.

"Yes, you're doing it right. You must be a diligent learner. If you don't know anything, you'll worry about not finding a wife in the future. Look at Brother Hao, how hardworking he is!" Huang Xuan said.

"Alright, alright, I'm eager to learn, okay? Stop talking nonsense," Wang Jun said.

"You're not allowed to speak yet!" Huang Xuan said!

"Attorney Li is here, please have a seat," Liu Hao said.

"Okay, Attorney Li, please continue!"

Liu Hao led the people into the house and poured them a cup of tea!

"Mr. Liu, what kind of contract do you want to draft?" Attorney Li asked.

"Here's the thing, the three of us pooled our money to start a machinery factory. The total investment for this factory is one million. Wang Jun and I each contributed 200,000, and Huang Xuan contributed 600,000. You draft three contracts based on the amount each of us contributed," Liu Hao said.

"I understand. Please wait a moment, I'll start writing now. Attorney Li, please begin writing the contract!"

Liu Hao went into the inner room and said to Niu, "Honey, do we still need to sign the machinery contract?"

"Hmm, no need to sign anymore! We don't need to sign. We'll definitely get the parts later, so don't worry, we don't need to sign," San Niu said!

"Okay, then we won't sign it. You can rest!" Liu Hao said, closing the door and leaving.

Attorney Li wrote the contract, and Liu Hao, Wang Jun, and Huang Xuan signed it. Then Attorney Li went home.

"Brother Hao, we're leaving too. Don't let Uncle cook for us anymore. We're going to Zhao Qiang's place," Wang Jun said.

“Alright, you guys go ahead!” Liu Hao said.

Wang Jun and Huang Xuan are gone!

Liu Hao went to the kitchen. "Uncle, Wang Jun and Huang Xuan won't be eating here. Let's make less food," Liu Hao said.

"Alright, let's make some shrimp, braised pork ribs, two stir-fried vegetable dishes, and a chicken soup, okay?" Zhang Laosan said.

"Okay, I'll wash whatever vegetables you want to wash," Liu Hao said.

"Okay, I'll give it to you. Just wash these vegetables. Have you signed the contract yet?" Zhang Laosan said.

"Alright, all signed," Liu Hao said.

"That's good. Now you can rest assured when you do business together," Zhang Laosan said.

“Yes! Huang Xuan isn’t very good at keeping his mouth shut. We won’t feel at ease if we don’t keep him under control. Now that we’re all in the same boat, he can’t run away,” Liu Hao said.

"That's for the best! You delivered so much goods this time, you must have made a lot of money!" Zhang Laosan said.

"It's quite a lot, over three million in total, but almost all of it belongs to our family. Wang Jun didn't get much, and Huang Xuan didn't have any shares, so he didn't get any. Therefore, we can get over two million," Liu Hao said.

"Really? That's great! So much money, enough for us to live on for a lifetime!" Zhang Laosan whispered.

“If it’s just about food and clothing, that’s definitely enough, but San Niu wants you to live a good life with us. She said that when we make more money, we’ll buy a plane and take you all on a trip,” Liu Hao said.

"My goodness! My youngest daughter is so capable! She's even buying an airplane! How wonderful our lives will be then!" Zhang Laosan said with a smile.

“Uncle, no one can compare to us. We can go wherever we want, just take a plane, and we’ll be there in a few hours. We can buy whatever we want to eat, and we can pick out the best clothes. Wouldn’t that be better than the life of an emperor?” Liu Hao said.

"Yes, it's wonderful! Life is so wonderful! Oh my, I'm so lucky! My daughter is amazing!" Zhang Laosan said happily.

"Liu Hao, you start the fire, I'll cook the dishes, and we'll be able to eat in a little while," Zhang Laosan said!

"Okay, you cook it, and I'll watch and learn," Liu Hao said.

“Alright, when cooking, first, add salt sparingly. If it’s not salty enough, you can add more. If you add too much, the vegetables will be too salty to eat. Also, meat dishes need to be stewed for a longer time. Vegetables can be stir-fried until cooked. Watch a few times and you’ll get the hang of it,” Zhang Laosan said.

Zhang Laosan and Liu Hao finished cooking, and Da Niu and Er Niu also got out of school!

The family sat down together and started eating!

"Sweetie, have a bowl of chicken soup first." Liu Hao ladled a bowl of chicken soup for San Niu and told her to drink it!

"The chicken soup is delicious today too. Dad's cooking is getting better and better," San Niu said, sipping the chicken soup.

"Yes! Liu Hao is also learning to cook, saying he'll cook for you once he learns. See how much Liu Hao cares about you!" Zhang Laosan said.
