Only this green, not disappointing the spring

Chapter 21: The Zhou Family members who are good at acting (1)

Hearing her daughter's self-deprecating words, Li felt very sad.

Her eldest daughter is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.

When she was little, she was obviously a sweet and adorable baby, especially her big eyes that were as bright as gems, although I have never seen what gems look like in my life.

But Mrs. Li felt that even if she had the chance to see real gems in the future, she would still think her daughter's eyes were more beautiful.

But now, for the sake of this family and to reduce his own burden, this child does more work than adults all day long.

Especially during this period of time, I went to the mountains to collect herbs, exposed to the wind and sun all day long. My skin was not only tanned, but also became much rougher.

A good girl has been turned into what she is now.

If she had to go to the city alone and do so many things, she would definitely be scared. But the child had to keep comforting her mother.

Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Li suppressed her sour emotions and gently touched Xiaoxi's head.

"My dear child, I still cannot allow you to go to the city alone. Don't worry, I will go with you. Your father asked your eldest uncle or second uncle to help take care of him for a day, and I will go to your grandfather to help make arrangements. Now that your father has woken up, he will not refuse if he knows."

Ah, I forgot this was possible!

Zhou Xiaoxi felt a little ashamed. She was too smart for her own good and always felt that she had to rely on herself for this matter.

No matter how selfish Old Man Zhou is, Zhou Jun is his own son after all.

When his son was already doomed to die, he had no scruples in making choices. However, if he knew that his son had a chance of recovery, the conscience buried deep in his heart would still play some role.

After thinking through all the twists and turns, Zhou Xiaoxi obediently agreed to Li's arrangement.

After so much hard work, the family can finally take a break.

……

Early the next morning, Li took her daughter to see Old Man Zhou.

Old man Zhou has been very depressed these two days.

That day, the eldest daughter-in-law just mentioned to him the idea of ​​letting the maid from the third son's family be a lucky charm for the man. Before he had time to be happy, he heard the next day that the eldest daughter-in-law was beaten by his own son and could not get out of bed!

He was really disappointed with this boss because he had not inherited any of his strengths.

He has been clumsy and dumb since he was young. It's fine if he is stupid and incompetent at ordinary times, but no one expects him to help with anything at home.

But now, his wife finally had the chance to help with some real work, but was held back by this piece of trash!

As soon as he saw Li's mother and daughter, Old Man Zhou felt a little guilty, thinking that the mother and daughter had heard the news.

However, this matter was brought up by Zhou Fu's wife, so it would be troublesome for me.

Besides, after raising such a money-losing thing for more than ten years, it is not wrong to let her repay the Zhou family. Thinking of this, he felt that he had a clear conscience and straightened his spine.

He used his usual attitude towards the two girls and asked impatiently:

"Why did you two come to see me again? The third child is paralyzed in bed and can't move. How can you feel at ease leaving Xiaonan alone at home? Zhou Jun has never treated you two badly before. Are you already impatient to serve him after only a few days?!"

Zhou Xiaoxi couldn't help but retort in her heart, "I'm worried, but I haven't seen you condescend to visit your son."

I really don't understand how such people can be so shameless and lenient with themselves and strict with others all day long?

This time, Li spoke before Zhou Xiaoxi did.

"Father-in-law, you are so concerned about Zhou Jun, why don't you go home to see him? You can't be still afraid of those dirty rumors before, right?"

Old man Zhou was angry and surprised. When did the third son's wife start speaking so rudely?

No wonder Xiaoxi is becoming more and more unbecoming, she learned it from her mother!

"What nonsense are you talking about? He's my own son, how can I not miss him? I've been feeling unwell these past few days, and Doctor Zhang left without even saying hello before he could cure me. Who of you wants to come and see an old man like me? If you have something to say, please say it quickly. If not, leave quickly. I'm upset just looking at you!"

It turns out that taking advantage of one’s age and seniority is the biggest bargaining chip for the elderly, and this is true both in ancient and modern times.

Li's experience was too inexperienced, and Old Man Zhou made her face red with anger, but she didn't know how to respond.

Zhou Xiaoxi's eyes lit up at the side. How could she have forgotten about this?

If the old man wants to relieve his leg pain, he will have to rely on Xiaonan to treat him in the future. She has to make good use of such a good bargaining chip. It is said that it is easy for a person to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Old man Zhou has been suffering from leg pain for many years, and he got used to it after a long time. But Doctor Zhang made his legs comfortable for a few days, and he enjoyed a few days of good days without disease and pain. It seemed particularly unbearable to return to the previous state.

Therefore, as long as Xiaonan's treatment is effective, there is no need to worry that Old Man Zhou will not help the family in the future. Zhou Xiaoxi is still very confident in her sister's ability.

With confidence, Zhou Xiaoxi spoke without any reservations.

"Grandfather, since you miss my father so much, we have to come here today. Many people in the village already know that my father has woken up, but you, as a father, don't know anything about it. If this gets out, you will not be able to hold your head up in the village, right?"

Old man Zhou was just taking a cup of tea to his mouth, and when he heard this, he almost threw the cup away. "Is the third brother awake? Is he fully recovered?"

Li was upset. He had no idea how sick his son was. It was obvious that he didn't remember a word of what Doctor Zhang said. He even had the nerve to say that he missed his son!

His tone became even colder.

"Father-in-law, seeing how excited you are, why don't you go home and check it out? Although Zhou Jun has been unconscious these days, he has been able to hear voices. He has been wondering why his father didn't go to see him. He thought you might have a serious illness too, so he was so worried!"

Zhou Xiaoxi was having a hard time trying not to laugh. After her mother had gone through all these bad things, her fighting spirit was increasing day by day!

Old man Zhou's face turned red from choking, and he felt very upset.

He stretched out his finger and pointed at Li viciously, unable to utter a word.

How was he going to refute? Was he going to say that he had never thought that the third brother could wake up?

If he dared to say it, the mother and daughter would say something even more vicious. He hadn't lived long enough, so he had to cherish his life.

Seeing that Old Man Zhou was having trouble breathing, Zhou Xiaoxi gave him a way out in time.

If she really gets angry to death, she and Li will not be able to deny the connection.

Besides, there will be many places where the old man will be useful in the future!

"Grandfather, you are so excited. Are you anxious to see my father? Don't worry. My father can't run away. Please walk slowly on the way. Mother and I will go to inform the eldest and second uncles, and then we will go home."

He picked up the cold tea on the table and handed it to Old Man Zhou respectfully.

You're so angry, you need to drink something cold.

As for whether you will get stomach problems when you get older, huh, who cares!
