Chapter 9 Agree
Zhou Huaihai was born in Tongsheng.
It can be seen how high his status is in the family.
He did have this idea back then and visited many bookstores in the county, but the bookstore owners wouldn't accept it.
When bookstore owners collect books, they are actually investing in students.
Generally speaking, only those children from poor families with good grades and good handwriting can be considered as having formed a good relationship in advance.
Like his grades.
He didn't dare to mention this matter to his family, for fear of affecting his family status.
Now Zhou Ping asked this.
If he denies it, how can he explain why he did not copy books to earn money to support his family?
After all, the second child gave up studying for him.
But if he admits it.
This is what Qing Yatou said, just in case Qing Yatou has already contacted the bookstore for the second child.
Then where to put his face!
Zhou Huaihai held back his anger.
The second brother is the boss, so what kind of bookstore is blind enough to let him copy books!
Forcibly ignoring Zhou Ping's words, Zhou Huaihai said earnestly: "Qing girl, you are already old enough. You can't be so willful. Your father has been cultivating the land for so many years, and you suddenly go to school. Do you think it is realistic? This is not a waste of money."
Zhou Qing said: "Reality, you have to try it to know whether it works or not."
Zhou Huaihai looked disappointed.
"You can't be so selfish. You only think about your father. Have you ever thought about your third uncle? Your father has gone to study, and your third uncle is thinking..."
Before Zhou Huaihai could finish speaking, Zhou Ping kicked Zhou Huailin under the table and looked at him with bright eyes.
Fight him! Fight him! Fight him!
Zhou Huailin.
Do you still need to remind me?
"I support my second brother to study."
Zhou Huaihai.
The corners of his eyes twitched, are you stupid?
"Didn't I agree with my eldest brother's study back then? Now that my second brother is studying, I agree too!"
Zhou Huaihai.
My chest hurts.
Mrs. Sun sighed, "Can your second brother compare with your eldest brother?"
"The eldest brother and the second brother are indeed different. The eldest brother studies and uses the efforts of the whole family, sacrificing the whole family to satisfy him. The second brother studies without our help or sacrifice. The success or failure is the second brother's own responsibility. Why don't I agree? I'll pay for it. And I don't understand why you don't agree."
Zhou Huailin's words were full of resentment.
Mr. Zhou sighed.
Zhou Huaihai looked at Zhou Huailin with a surprised look on his face, "Third brother, do you blame me?"
Zhou Huailin nodded, "We will support you when you study, and we will support your son when he studies. Why do you think my son can't study?"
When Zhou Huaihai was about to speak, Mr. Zhou patted the table and said, "Okay."
Sun Shi glared at Zhou Qing fiercely, "It's all you. If you hadn't made such a fuss, would the family have been uneasy for days?"
Zhou Qing said, "I don't like hearing this anymore. Why am I making such a fuss? Are my family and I asking for money? Or am I eating and drinking for free and not working? Some people are eating and drinking at home and asking for money every day." If you don’t do any work and don’t see any milk, why are you so opposed to my father’s study? I don’t understand why? Why don’t we separate?”
Because of Wang Qiang's incident, Mrs. Wang's heart has been blocked for a long time, "How can you talk to a kid! You are about to get married, and you go to your husband's house and talk to your elders like this?"
Zhou Qing didn't want to take advantage of her words.
"Who is getting married? What about me, auntie? Who am I getting married to? Is it Wang Qiang who is lame, goes to a brothel, and is beaten by me in the street?"
Mrs. Wang was yelled at by Zhou Qing, and she burst into tears of anger.
Zhou Huaihai raised his head and asked three times.
Wang Qiang? Visiting a brothel? Beaten by Zhou Qing?
Mr. Wang shut up, and Zhou Qing said to Mr. Zhou: "Sir, this matter is settled. Tomorrow my father will start copying and warming up books. You can hire someone to go to the fields with your third uncle."
Mrs. Sun sighed, "What the hell, where will the money come from? Don't think I don't know what you are planning, don't even think about it!"
Zhou Qing glanced at Sun and took out a handful of coins.
When touching the copper plate, Zhou Qing's finger touched something.
That piece of silver!
Huh?
She remembered that she had clearly put it on the counter of Bi Mo Zhai, so why did he come on her again?
what happened?
A doubt crossed his mind, and Zhou Qing quickly put it aside and placed the copper plate in front of Mr. Zhou.
"Master, here is one hundred coins. You can take it first. It will take three or four days, no problem. I will get the money in a few days. When I can get it, we will continue to hire people. If I can't get it, my father will Go farm, no matter how hard you reach out to grandma."
Zhou Qing's words blocked Sun's mouth.
Mrs. Wang wiped her tears and moved her eyes, "I asked, "Why is Qing Yatou so obsessed with letting her second brother study? Is Qing Yatou looking for a living outside? Don't you want to find some shady job if you take out so much at once?" ”
Mrs. Sun immediately said: "You damn girl, you actually learned how to hide private money. If you don't have it anymore, take it out. My old Zhou family doesn't do such embarrassing things."
As she spoke, Mrs. Sun was about to stand up, as if she wanted to search her body. She was grabbed by Mr. Zhou, and then he sat there angrily, staring at Zhou Qing with gleaming eyes.
Zhou Qingming rolled his eyes at Wang, "You are dirty, don't think others are dirty too."
Wang's face immediately turned green and she almost lost her breath.
Zhou Qing simply took out the rest of the money and put it on the table.
"This is the money I borrowed from Chengwu. It's the money left over from buying pens and ink. I can take it out now, but I've said in advance that this is a loan from Chengwu and I have to pay it back. If I can't make money by then and the money is spent again, you will help pay it back then?"
After saying this, Sun's momentum weakened by half, but she still said aggressively: "Don't you take it out now? When you waste the money, you can pay it back yourself? You still have to take it from home!"
Zhou Qing said coldly, "Except for the eldest wife who keeps taking money in this family, who else has taken it!"
Old Master Zhou glared at Sun and roared: "Eat! You can't even eat in peace!"
After that, he said to Zhou Qing: "Let's settle your father's affairs. As for you, it's still the same as before. I don't object to you going out to find a job, but you can't delay the three meals at home and raising pigs, chickens and washing clothes. Don't cause trouble outside."
"Thank you, sir."
After Old Master Zhou made the decision, Zhou Qing finally felt more at ease.
Now, the money is out of the way, so she doesn't have to hide it anymore.
It's really heavy to carry such a string of money on her body, but she can't exchange it for silver. It's inconvenient for poor people to use silver.
As for the chickens and pigs, the original owner feeds them twice a day, morning and evening, and Zhou Ping helps in the middle.
She can't get back at noon after entering the county town, so she gets up early to make lunch and keeps it warm in the pot.
After dinner, everyone goes back to their rooms.
As soon as Zhou Qing entered the second room, he saw Zhou Huaishan busy in front of the stove.
Zhou Qing
s eyes twitched, and he said in surprise: "You killed chickens again? When?"
Thanks to Ruchu Xiaokeai for the reward
