Mrs. Zhao immediately pulled Zhou Huailin’s sleeve and winked at him.

Zhou Huailin was silent, “Qing, Third Uncle can work with you, but the money can not be shared like this. Your father takes four, you take four, and Third Uncle takes two.”

Zhou Qing was about to refuse when Zhou Huailin said, “You listen to Third Uncle. Third Uncle can’t take advantage of you because of his age.”

Mrs. Zhao followed and said, “Your Third Uncle is sensible.”

Zhou Qing knew what Zhou Huailin meant. After thinking for a while, she said, “This way, Yao’er will be included. My father and I will take six, Yao’er and Third Uncle will take four, and we will talk about it when Ping comes.”

“Me? What can I do?” Zhou Yao’s face was surprised, but her eyes glowed with enthusiasm.

Mrs. Zhao and Zhou Huailin looked at Zhou Qing in unison.

“My father writes, and Yao’er helps cut paper. It’s more efficient.”

Zhou Yao blushed. She said embarrassedly, “I cannot count a share of cutting paper.”

“If we sell well, you have to cut paper all day long, and it’s hard work. I’ll sell the ones written today to the nearby villages with Third Uncle tomorrow.”

Zhou Qing suddenly thought of something and faced Zhou Huailin, “This kind of small business may not be profitable. Perhaps there is also a loss. Third Uncle’s farm work ……”

Zhou Huailin was about to speak, but Mrs. Zhao grabbed Zhou Qing’s hand before he did, “Third Aunt doesn’t want your Third Uncle to farm all year round. He works so hard that he can’t even get a penny in his hand and has to look at people’s faces to eat his food.

Zhou Huailin sighed.

“The family was in a frenzy today, while the main house side is still arrogant. Based on the Third Aunt’s view, it’s okay to sell it tomorrow, but you’re still trying to find an excuse.”

Zhou Qing smiled.

The matter was settled, and it was time to do it.

When Zhou Huaishan heard that instead of copying the Analects of Confucius, he would write the word “Feng,” he was so happy that he almost farted.

Zhou Qing and Zhou Yao cut the paper, and Zhou Huaishan wrote one after another while Zhou Ping stretched his fingers to imitate the strokes in the air and used a fan to dry the ink.

After writing about fifty sheets, Zhou Huaishan’s back ached, and his legs cramped.

However, Zhou Yao and Zhou Ping were there. He was afraid that his character would collapse, so he gritted his teeth and didn’t dare to say anything but only looked at Zhou Qing sorrowfully occasionally.

Where was the chicken?

Where the heck was my chicken?

I wanted to eat chicken!

Zhou Qing couldn’t help but look at him. After Zhou Huaishan finished writing his hundred sheets, she rolled over and exited the bed.

“Yao’er, you guys get busy first. I’ll go get the rice.”

“Big sister, my mother went to cook.”

“I’ll go kill a chicken.”

As soon as he heard there was a chicken to eat, Zhou Ping immediately tugged Zhou Yao, “Look, in a few months, I’ll have my birthday. Let’s eat a chicken today to celebrate in advance.”

Zhou Yao ……

Zhou Qing ……

Zhou Huaishan raised his hand and touched Zhou Ping’s head. They were not family members, but their relationship was already even better than family members.

Originally Zhou Qing was in charge of the family’s three meals daily. Mrs. Sun was a little worried about how dinner would be settled today now that Zhou Qing had given up her responsibilities.

She didn’t expect Mrs. Zhao as she entered the kitchen.

Mrs. Sun, who Old Zhou had reprimanded, entered the kitchen with fire in her heart.

“All day long, I don’t see much work done. You only know how to eat and drink. Even the golden mountain of silver will make you poor.”

They heard an angry nest of chickens outside no sooner had these words ended.

Mrs. Sun immediately ran out of the kitchen and saw Zhou Qing carrying a chicken out of the nest.

“You ……”

Mrs. Sun was about to curse when Zhou Qing wiped the chicken’s neck with a knife. Then as soon as she let go, the chicken fluttered its wings and came running towards Mrs. Sun.

Mrs. Sun ……

She felt her vision go black like something had stepped on her head.

“Grandmother, relax. This chicken is for me to eat. It’s for the shock. I’ve been scolded for selling meat, so I must eat some meat to compensate for it.”

When she saw Mrs. Sun was going to scold her, Zhou Qing coldly blocked her sentence.

Old Zhou came from the main room and glared at Mrs. Sun, “I told you to call the main family. What are you dawdling about? Hurry up.”

After saying that, without looking at Zhou Qing or Mrs. Zhao, he turned around with a black face and returned to the house.

Mrs. Zhao and Zhou Qing looked at each other. Mrs. Zhao continued to cut vegetables while Zhou Qing waited for the chicken to finish bleeding and started to pluck the feathers.

Seeing that another chicken was gone, Mrs. Sun’s liver trembled with pain, and roared, “Little brat, you wait for me.”

After calling the two members of the first house, the three of them entered the main room.

Old Zhou was sitting on a chair with a large teapot, carrying his anger on his gloomy face.

“Eldest daughter-in-law.”

Hearing that she was named, Mrs. Wang answered, “Father.”

“You married into my Zhou family. Have you ever been wronged?”

Uncertain, Mrs. Wang hurriedly shook her head, “No.”

But once she thought of the violent beating she had just received from Zhou Qing, she shed tears of anguish and cried a lot.

Old Zhou sighed.

“You feel aggrieved by being beaten by Qing, don’t you?”

Mrs. Wang cried a little louder and didn’t speak.

“Then why didn’t you think about why she hit you?” Old Zhou could not suppress the anger in his voice, “What the hell are you two doing on a good day? How did Lao Er’s study get in your way?”

The old man’s fire-breathing gaze fell on Zhou Huaihai.

“That’s your brother, your niece. How black-hearted you are to make up for her like that!”

“Father, of course, I’m afraid that Qing will be cheated!” Zhou Huaihai explained with his head bowed.

“Bullshit! Don’t think I don’t know what kind of shit you are pulling! You have offended the Second and Third, the two of you will go to the farm tomorrow.”

Zhou Huaihai did not say anything.

“Qing is very angry and must have been annoyed about it for a while. Your Second Brother is soft-hearted. If you still want to live a good life, apologize to him.”

“I went there at that instant.” Zhou Huaihai held his head.

“After going, what happened? Did they forgive you?” Old Zhou was about to die from anger, “I am telling you, if Lao Er does not forgive you, go to the farm yourself!”

After saying that, he glared at Mrs. Wang, “From tomorrow, you will cook three meals a day at home and take over all of Qing’s work.”

Mrs. Wang’s eyes widened, and she looked at the old man in dismay.

The old man hated it so much that he gritted his teeth, “This is what you two owe to Qing!”

Mrs. Wang dared not contradict Old Zhou but softly said, “Father, it looks like my son will return by mid-autumn. ……”

The old man slapped the table, “What? Do not tell me that Yuan, who is still not a top student, his mother will not cook?”

Mrs. Sun hurriedly winked at Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang bowed her head and answered, “Daughter-in-law knows.”

It was only then that Old Zhou looked a little better.

When the two members of the first family came out of the main room, Zhou Huaihai looked sorrowfully at Zhou Qing, who was plucking chicken feathers in the courtyard.

“The thing about Wang Qiang, you hurry up and do it.”

Suppressing his voice, Zhou Huaihai grunted.

Mrs. Wang was stunned, then reacted and looked coldly at Zhou Qing.

When she returned to her mother’s house early this morning, her sister-in-law’s meaning was clear: Wang Qiang would not marry Zhou Qing, so she had to ensure it was done.

How could she not want to?

If Zhou Qing married Wang Qiang, Lao Er would be the clay in their hands!

They could squeeze them at will.
