Zhang Xiuhua came out of the team leader's house and thought about how to build a chicken coop. If she wanted to raise 500 chickens, the chicken coop at home would definitely not be enough. At least half of her private plot would have to be occupied.

Just as I was thinking about how many bricks to buy, Youcai came running over, "Aunt Zhang, you should go home quickly. Something happened."

Zhang Xiuhua was startled, and after he led her a few steps, she also ran after him, "What happened?"

"Zhuzhu is crying. She cries so pitifully. No one can persuade her except you." Youcai is worthy of being a real brother. His concern does not seem fake.

Zhang Xiuhua could hear Zhuzhu's cries from a long distance away. The child didn't cry easily. Sometimes, when she had an argument with her brothers and sisters, she would just pretend to cry in the hope of making them compromise. Later, she found that pretending to cry didn't work, so she gave up this method.

The crying was heart-wrenching, as if her three gallbladders were about to burst out. Zhang Xiuhua was immediately distressed, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

She held Zhuzhu and sat on the chair, "Who offended you?"

Li Jianguo came out from the kitchen, "She cried because she was greedy."

The children were speechless. "How can you be so useless? You become so greedy for just a little food!"

Youcai was very disappointed with his sister, and felt that her sister was a disgrace. Their family ate so well, yet she was still greedy for other people's food.

Zhang Xiuhua was puzzled, "Who is greedy for you?"

Zhuzhu cried and hiccuped from time to time, "It was... it was my two cousins. Grandma gave them egg cakes and didn't give me any."

Zhang Xiuhua was helpless. She hadn't been to the commune recently and hadn't bought egg cake for her child for a long time. No wonder the child was so greedy.

She touched Zhuzhu's head and said, "I will go to the commune to buy it tomorrow. Don't cry, or you'll get hoarse."

Zhuzhu stopped crying, took a backpack and followed her brothers and sisters to the mountains to pick mushrooms.

Looking at Zhuzhu's cheerful back, Li Jianguo was a little angry. "I really didn't expect that they wouldn't even give Zhuzhu an egg cake. I won't go next time."

Zhang Xiuhua shook her head, "No! We must go tomorrow!"

Li Jianguo looked at her in surprise. What did she mean?

"You have to help Zhuzhu get back her territory!" Zhang Xiuhua snorted, "Tomorrow I'll buy Zhuzhu a pound of pork and sit outside his house to eat it. They'll be so greedy!"

She thought that she couldn't just buy egg cakes, she had to buy other things too.

Li Jianguo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Why are you acting like a child?"

"Zhuzhu feels unbalanced. Why doesn't she share the food with her grandmother?" Zhang Xiuhua believes that education is important. "Zhuzhu will feel inferior because she is not a boy. This is not acceptable."

Li Jianguo found that he was not as attentive as her in education. Although he thought it was just a small matter, he felt angry when he thought that Zhuzhu was crying and still didn't get the egg cake. He felt that all the money his ex-wife gave him was wasted. He immediately stopped objecting and said, "Okay."

The next day, Zhang Xiuhua went to the commune to deliver vermicelli and bought some snacks. In addition to egg cakes, there were also White Rabbit milk candies, golden fruits, etc.

Li Jianguo took Zhuzhu to his ex-father-in-law's house again.

Zhuzhu stood at the door and didn't go in. She just ate snacks at the door, which soon attracted a bunch of children to come and watch the fun, especially the two grandsons from her father-in-law's family.

When they saw the food in Zhuzhu's hand, they wanted to grab it, but when Li Jianguo gave them a warning look, they were so scared that they dared not to do anything and started clamoring for their grandparents to buy them some.

Old Mrs. Chen wanted to ask Li Jianguo for food, after all, he came to deliver something yesterday.

But Li Jianguo pretended not to hear, obviously holding a grudge against what happened yesterday. She secretly hated that her son-in-law was not her son after all.

The two grandchildren cried loudly. Grandma Chen was about to agree to buy them another egg cake, but Zhuzhu was tired of eating egg cake and took out a White Rabbit milk candy from her pocket. This one was also eaten by the children during the Chinese New Year. It was milky and delicious.

The two children were so greedy that they wanted to eat this too.

By the time Zhuzhu finished her performance, the cries of her two grandchildren had already echoed throughout the village.

On the way back, Zhuzhu sat in the back, laughing the whole time, "Dad, it's so funny, they are so greedy that they can't even control their saliva. They are like idiots."

Li Jianguo's eyes were filled with smiles. In the eyes of adults, this was just a small matter, but in the eyes of children, it was a big deal. Because she won, she could laugh heartily.

After returning home, Zhuzhu chattered to Zhang Xiuhua about the scene in which her two cousins ​​cried because of her envy.

Zhang Xiuhua listened with great interest, "Haha, you're already a teenager and you're still crying because of greed, how embarrassing!"

"I think so too!" Zhuzhu completely forgot that she was crying because of greed yesterday. She puffed out her chest proudly. After all, she would never cry because of greed when she was a teenager.

**

In the evening, Zhang Xiuhua wanted to discuss building a chicken farm with Li Jianguo, but Li Jianguo insisted on dragging her to do some exercise.

Well, Zhang Xiuhua doesn’t reject this, after all, she can also have fun.

After it was over, Li Jianguo kissed everyone excitedly.

Zhang Xiuhua felt sticky and moved aside.

"Xiuhua, how do you know so much?"

Zhang Xiuhua laughed, "I also cried because of greed when I was a child. My father favored the two children brought by my stepmother. When there was something delicious, he would deliberately send my brother and me out. I saw it all from hiding outside the window, and I was so greedy. But I didn't have such a good life as Zhuzhu. When Zhuzhu cried, we felt sorry for her, but when I cried, no one felt sorry for me."

Li Jianguo held her hand tightly, as if to give her silent comfort, "From now on, just eat whatever you want."

"Of course! I always get a share of the food I buy." Zhang Xiuhua said as a matter of course. She wanted to raise me as a daughter and make up for what she owed me.

Li Jianguo wanted to do it again, but Zhang Xiuhua held out her hand to stop him from getting closer. "It's too hot, let's forget it. Let's talk about business."

Li Jianguo pricked up his ears and listened.

Zhang Xiuhua told him about her plan to raise chickens. "The team leader has asked for me and he said we can raise chickens. I heard that last year a village in Hunan planted 4000 peach trees. Some people stood up and wanted to cut off the capitalist tail and cut down all the trees. The central government issued a document clearly stating that this was not a capitalist tail. The same goes for me raising chickens."

Li Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he became worried, "Is the money enough? If not, I'll ask my eldest brother to borrow some."

Zhang Xiuhua smiled and looked at him sideways, "Aren't you afraid that I will lose everything?"

"It's fine if I lose money. I can still make money." Li Jianguo didn't care much. "Besides, our production team has so much land, we won't starve. These are just floating assets, more or less won't affect our lives. If you want to do something, go ahead and do it. If you keep wanting to do something but can't do it, you'll get sick if you keep holding it in your heart!"

Zhang Xiuhua heard it. People who have been to the battlefield don't care much about life and death. There is nothing more important in life than life and death.

Suddenly I felt that he was actually quite cute like this, and I couldn't help but move closer to him. However, he mistook it as a signal of her taking the initiative and immediately turned over and got on top.

"Hey! It's so hot!"

"It's okay! I'll fan you later!"
