Chapter 377. Promote their own people
Unable to successfully complain to old Mister Zhu, so she ca to find her long-ti neighbor, old Madam Hu.
After recounting what happened this morning, old Madam Hu glanced at her and said, "You haven’t planted anything yourself this year."
"Wasn’t I feeling lazy this year?" Mrs. Zhu said: "She planted so much over there and can’t finish eating. We’re neighbors here. It’s nothing if I took so. She actually didn’t give any."
This year, she thought that the two families will be connected this year. In the future, let alone cucumbers, cabbage, and tomatoes, she can even ask for eggs from Mother Zhou. She raised so many chickens, so the eggs were laid very diligently.
From ti to ti, she can hear the hen’s crow after laying an egg.
But who would have thought that a self-employed family like the old Zhou family would reject a girl like her granddaughter.
Nowadays, she can’t bear to give a tiny bit of cucumbers and tomatoes.
Old Madam Hu didn’t really want to talk to old Madam Zhu. They have been neighbors for so many years, so who didn’t know each other’s virtue?
Old Madam Hu wasn’t just saying. With the way her granddaughter was, only she would thought she was a fairy. To her, she really didn’t compatible with the tall Bei University graduate grandson.
Although Mother Zhou didn’t tell her about this, they were neighbors. How can she not know?
Especially when Zhu Zhen Zhen ca here every day and waited for her grandson at that door!
"There are still so in my yard. Co pick it if you want." Old Madam Hu said.
It was just so cucumber. It wasn’t worth a lot of money.
Both of them had houses with a garden. It’s just their area was a little smaller than Zhou’s place. That’s why they didn’t raise chickens or anything. Only planted so cucumber or sothing and kept it for their own use.
Old Madam Zhu went in and picked seven or eight cucumbers and left.
Old Madam Hu hadn’t paid any mind for a while. When old Madam Hu did notice that even the three half-grown ones were taken away as well and not one had been left behind, she couldn’t help but curse twice.
Old Madam Hu ca to Mother Zhou to pick so. Mother Zhou didn’t plan to interact with old Madam Zhu, but she was still polite to old Madam Hu.
She heard old Madam Hu complain: "My yard has so planted and the one next door said she didn’t. So I let her pick mine. Never thought she didn’t leave any left for . She picked them all away."
Currently, Mother Zhou didn’t have a good impression of old Madam Zhu and she didn’t make a remark to it. She just said: "I just picked so. Take so."
Old Madam Hu took four of them. Enough to eat was sufficient.
In the evening, Xu Sheng i, who was off work, ca over. Now she always ate dinner here and stayed overnight. Zhou Er Ni had the whole dumpling shop to herself.
"Xiao i has co," Old Madam Hu was delighted to see her and smiling said.
"En. Have you eaten, Granny Hu?" Xu Sheng i greeted politely.
"I have eaten." Old Madam Hu replied and then looked around to make sure no one was around. She passed over a hard-boiled egg and, whispered: "Save it for yourself."
"Granny Hu, this can’t do. Take it back quickly and keep it for yourself." Xu Sheng i declined.
Her diet now was excellent, whether it was at her uncle’s side or her grandma’s side. Eggs weren’t a rare thing.
But who would dislike free stuff though?
"Lass, it’s just an egg. Nothing great. You helped sweep the ground last ti." Old Madam Hu persisted with a smile. Then she forcefully stuffed the egg over and whispered: "Eat it in secret. Don’t let your grandma see."
"Granny Hu, this is not good." Xu Sheng i said.
"At this ti tomorrow, Granny Hu is going to make a pair of shoes. How’s your needlework? Can you co over and help ?" Old Madam Hu asked.
"My needlework is fine. If Granny Hu doesn’t mind, I will co over to help Granny Hu tomorrow." Xu Sheng i smiled sweetly.
"Alright." Old Madam Hu nodded.
Xu Sheng i took the egg and left. Old Madam Hu was in a very good mood. Her grand-nephew was coming tomorrow, but it was ti for him to see.
Xu Sheng i went to help the next day. As soon as she walked in, she saw a young man with a combed hair wearing leather shoes...
Naturally, Lin Qing He didn’t know about these events. Xu Sheng i preferred going to her grandma’s side and she never stopped her. After all, it was nothing.
Recently, she was planning whether she should hire soone to watch the store. For the n’s clothing store. That way, Hu Zi can free his hands to set up a street stall.
She didn’t plan to let Hu Zi watch the shop for the rest of his life. For a young guy like this, she wanted to give him more opportunities to go out and broaden his horizon.
The family was watching TV that night. Lin Qing He asked Hu Zi, "Hu Zi, is your younger brother called Gang Zi?"
"Ah? Yeah." Hu Zi froze and nodded.
"What is Gang Zi doing now?" Lin Qing He asked.
"Helping with farm work." Hu Zi replied. Although he didn’t understand why his aunt suddenly asked this, he had so vague guesses. He couldn’t help but look at his aunt.
Lin Qing He laughed, and said, "You know your aunt’s temper. If I find that soone inappropriate, Aunt will drive them away. There is no human relationship to reason with. So Hu Zi, tell the truth to Aunt. How is Gang Zi? Is he suitable to co here to watch the shop? If not, let’s not give people hope from the beginning."
"Aunt, he can do it!" When Hu Zi heard his brother was wanted, he said at once. He couldn’t help being a little excited. When he went back during the New Year, his brother wanted to co with him.
But his mother disallowed it. Saying that he was already here, so his younger brother shouldn’t co and cause trouble. In fact, if there was a labor shortage here, he felt his brother can do it.
"Gang Zi is sixteen years old this year. He is clever too. He will never steal and be lazy. If he does, you can send him back imdiately without hesitation!" Hu Zi stated.
"This year, your cousin, Xu Sheng Qiang wants to co with his sister, but I didn’t allow i.t Now I am willing to let Gang Zi co over, your eldest aunt (1st Sis) will have objections." Lin Qing He said.
Hu Zi was taken aback. He didn’t know there was such a matter.
"But Aunt has always been handle things like this. Willing to promote own people, but those who are suitable. So I have to make it clear to you. Don’t say Aunt is selfless later. Once Gang Zi is here and I’m not satisfied, I will send him back." Lin Qing He looked at him and reminded.
"Don’t worry, Aunt. I will teach him. He will definitely know how to!" Hu Zi nodded hurriedly.
"Alright then. Yang Yang and Wu Ni will have to finish the exam soon. When the ti cos, they will co. I will call your eldest aunt (Eldest Sister-in-law) and get your eldest uncle (1st Bro) to go over and talk to Gang Zi." Lin Qing He spoke.
A bright smile appeared on Hu Zi’s face.
