Chapter 9 Retirement
Grandpa Zhou's pupils shrank, but he was angry again, but he still held back. When it comes to the clan elders, it is really embarrassing.
"Okay, you are all big and your wings are hard. I am wholeheartedly thinking about you, but you turn around and blame me for meddling in other people's business. Okay, I don't care about this anymore, don't regret it in the future!"
This time he was so angry that he lay on the bed after he went back, saying that he was feeling uncomfortable. The aunt also took the opportunity to criticize the family, saying that the family was unlucky and that the younger generation was unfilial, which made her grandfather sick.
After Zhou Hui found out, he wanted to argue with a dark face, but Zhou Tian stopped him.
"You are living like this at home?" Zhou Hui's eyes turned red. For the first time, he felt so incompetent. He thought that with his little salary, his younger brothers and sisters should be able to live well at home. Now it seems that he is all too naive.
"Otherwise?" Zhou Tian asked him to lie down, and went out of the door, stood in the yard, and whispered: "Aunt, what are you saying, why grandpa is sick, don't you know very well? My brother's salary over the past few years has been sold by your big house to sell cloth and vegetables. Today, my family owed a lot of debts and asked grandpa for money, but only one hundred yuan left. Where did all the money go? Do you dare to say you don't know?"
Zhou Tian's voice is crisp and her speech is clear. She can hear clearly as long as she passes by.
When the aunt heard this, she was so angry that she rushed over to beat Zhou Tian. However, Zhou Tian was thin and saw that the aunt came over, she called to hide at the neighbor's house.
In the countryside, women's quarrels will always attract everyone's attention quickly. In addition, as soon as Zhou Tian's words are guided, everyone will learn two information from Zhou Tian's mouth.
First, Zhou Hui's salary was swallowed by the big house; second, Zhou Tian's family owed a lot of debts.
There is no father or mother on the top, the family still owes money, and there are still physical problems, so they cannot get pregnant. These points add up to make Yang's mother completely lose her patience.
She gave the last ultimatum at home, "I can't stand this kind of wife who doesn't have a door in her mouth and says nothing. I'll give up this marriage quickly, otherwise I'll go back to my parents' home tomorrow!"
After Zhou Tian’s family was so troubled, the Yang family was not very happy about Zhou Tian. They prefer Wen Jing’s wife who can live at home, so let’s forget about such noisy things.
So on the third night, Yang's father came to leave the bride last week's house.
Grandpa Zhou was originally worried about Zhou Tian's confrontation that day. Now when the Yang family said they could not do that marriage, he waved his hand depressedly, "It's because our family is not lucky. I originally wanted to find you a satisfactory wife and repay your family's original kindness. Now it seems that I am confused."
Outside the door, Zhou Juan almost felt her heart flying when she heard this. At this time, Grandma Zhou brought the tea, and she hurriedly picked it up and sent it into the room in person.
Grandpa Zhou saw the shy and timid expression of this granddaughter, and suddenly said to Fu Linxin: "I don't know if your boy is willing or not, my granddaughter is much more sensible than that." He is not as beautiful as that one.
When Yang's father heard this, his eyes kept silent and turned around Zhou Juan, but he did not respond.
After Yang's father returned, the news of the Yang family's resignation was soon told by Zhou Juan "kindly" to Zhou Tian and his sister.
"Have the Yang family really come to quit the kiss?" Zhou Tian confirmed again. The difficulty that Zhou Tian had originally hit was gone like this?
Zhou Juan thought she couldn't believe it, and mocked her: "If you don't believe it, you can ask yourself. What I'll do for no reason, but I suggest you don't go, it's too embarrassing."
Zhou Tian ignored the pride in her eyes and directly took her arm.
After getting the answer she wanted in Grandpa Zhou's impatient tone, he came out to stand in the yard. Zhou Tian felt that her life was so relaxed for the first time.
Finally got rid of the first shackles.
At this moment, someone suddenly climbed over the wall and ran in in the yard. Then, the moonlight, Zhou Tian vaguely identified who he was.
After avoiding the loofah rack next to him, Zhou Tian did not move and just watched the man walk towards her house. After a while, he heard Zhou Juan's voice.
"Your marriage has been cancelled, so it's better not to come here in the future. It's not good for your reputation this midnight."
Then, Zhou Tian saw Zhou Juan pulling the man out of her yard.
After they left, Zhou Tian stood under the loofah rack for a while before returning to the house.
As soon as she came back, Zhou Hui asked hurriedly: "Have you really retired from the kiss?"
"Well, it's true." Zhou Tian felt relieved, "I finally retired from the wedding. Brother, let's go to the county town tomorrow. Take your younger brother and sister away."
After the matter here was resolved, she didn't want to stay here for a moment. Staying for a while would just waste more time making money.
"What are our family going to the county town to do?" Zhou Hui was puzzled.
"Of course it's business." Zhou Tian was in a good mood at this moment and immediately told her plans. "Actually, I've already thought about it. I'll work at home all my life, and that's also for others. Only by doing business can we make money. You see, our family doesn't have much money, the house is not built, and your wife is not married. The younger brothers and sisters below still have to study, and they need money to support them in the future. Instead of just sitting in a waste of money, it's better to use that money to fight outside. If we can make money, we can continue. If we can't make money, we can go back to the countryside."
"Doing business?" Zhou Hui felt a little guilty, "How can we do such a thing?"
Zhou Tian knew his psychology, and anyone would be naturally timid about unfamiliar things. However, this step will be taken sooner or later.
"Brother, listen to my thoughts first, and then see if it can work."
"Okay, you said."
The four brothers and sisters sat in the room and chatted with two palm-leaf fans until the middle of the night.
In the end, Zhou Tian persuaded Zhou Hui and said that he would try selling steamed cakes for one month in the county first. If it doesn't work, he would think of other ways to make money.
The next morning, the Zhou brothers and sisters cleaned up the things at home. Zhou Tian asked the neighbors to help carry his brother on the boat. As for the reason why the whole family went to the county town, the brother's leg injury was even worse, so he had to go to see the doctor.
No one can explain the wound clearly, she has nothing to do with this excuse.
Grandpa Zhou was still angry. When he heard the movement, he asked a few questions indifferently, and then he said nothing else. Before leaving, Grandma Zhou asked Zhou Tian to keep the two small ones below, saying that she wanted someone to pull peanuts from the ground.
How could Zhou Tian agree to her younger brother and sister stay and let them rub it? She directly refused, saying that she was taking care of her brother and asking for help. If there were not enough people working in the fields, she would ask her to find her aunt's family.
Grandma Zhou was so angry that her face turned blue when she saw her like this, but she still had no choice.
