Chapter 143: A Good Scene

  At noon when I returned home, Zhou Guoqiang and Zhou Guofu, the two brothers, had already brought back ??????.

  Shen Hua Feng warmly insisted on picking them up and taking them to her home to stay, repeatedly saying that lunch was already prepared. The whole Zhou Guoqiang family went over and had a lively meal together.

  Zhao 'Yu' Zhen saw through Shen Hua Feng's little trick at a glance.

  In the summer, she was afraid that the old man would stay at home for a long time and not say a word. Now it's clear that the old man is only staying for a short while and still has to return to the city. Shen Huafeng's big burden in her heart was finally lifted, and she took the opportunity to show off a bit.

  Zhao 'Yu' Zhen said: "Sister-in-law, I cleaned up the house last night, let's just let Da Bao live in our home!"

  Shen Hua Feng is not a thrifty lamp, laughing and pulling Zhao 'Yu' Zhen's hand said: "Second aunt, last time I didn't even have time to open my mouth, you rushed to take our mother home, this time you can't rob me of the opportunity. Just let me have a chance to show my filial piety."

  After finishing speaking, Shen Hua Feng warmly pulled up ???'s hand, calling her "Mom" one after another.

  Zhou Guofu knew the machine's replacement package had been taken away.

  Hehe, she smiled and didn't care what her daughter-in-law was thinking in her heart. She was already content with the way things were. For an elderly person to have a son competing to take her back home for Chinese New Year, this is a huge comfort!

  Zhao 'Yu' Zhen had nothing to say at this time, and took the children together to Laojia for lunch.

  Shen Hua Feng specially cleaned up a room in the main house and moved out.

  Come and live here, Zhou Guoqiang thought to himself that it was indeed much brighter than his own home.

  He stayed in the countryside until the 15th of the first month and was then taken back to the city by Third Uncle.

  Zhou Guoqiang thought the pigpen at home was too small, and often brought back several pigs with nowhere to put them. In fact, raising a few more days until they were sold for meat would be best, but the pigpen at home was still the one built several years ago, which could only hold three pigs at most.

  So soon after the Spring Festival, the Zhou family began to dismantle the old pigpen and build a new one.

  With the money, Zhou Guoqiang was willing to spend it. He didn't use broken bricks but brand new red bricks instead. The newly built pigpen could hold seven or eight pigs and looked magnificent.

  When Zhou Guofu came to visit, he joked with Zhou Guoqiang: "The pigpen in your house is even better than the house itself."

  Zhou Guoqiang burst out laughing: "Big brother, don't tease me with this. I'll build a small building right away and show it to you."

  Zhou Guofu was genuinely happy for his younger brother. Over the past two years, he had seen Zhou Qiang's business grow and earn more money, which made him, as the older brother, also feel 'quite' happy. Who wouldn't want their brothers to live a better life?

  Think about it, a few years ago Zhou Guoqiang was worried about the tuition fees for his children to go to school, now compared to the past, it can be said that it is a world of difference.

  Zhou Guofu didn't take Zhou Guoqiang's words to heart and went home, only mentioning it to Shen Huafeng as a joke.

  The speaker is unintentional, but the listener may have intentions. Shen Huafeng asked further: "Did Guo Qiang really say that to you?"

  Zhou Guofu thinks Shen Hua

  Feng's reaction was a bit too 'agitated': "He just casually said that, probably joking. In our village, only the production team leader Xu Dashan's family has started building a small building, others can't afford it. Second child has been doing business for two years, but still a little far from building a house!"

  Shen Hua Feng thought to herself: "I think Guo Qiang intentionally said that to test your reaction, who knows if the second master's family really wants to build a building."

  Zhou Guofu lost his smile and said, "If he wants to build it, then let him build it. Why must he come to probe my reaction?"

  Shen Hua Feng gave Zhou Guo Fu a white eye and said: "I think you're not very clever, the second couple is 'smart' too. Now that this business is doing so well, who wouldn't be jealous? Although our family was better off in the past few years, now we are not as good as the second family. Our family is the eldest, but it's just a flat house. If his younger brother builds a high-rise building first, won't it make us lose face?"

  I really don't understand how Shen Huafeng can think so complicatedly about such a simple sentence like 'support'.

  However, Zhou Guofu, who had not thought much about it before, was suddenly inspired by Shen Huafeng's words and began to ponder the matter seriously.

  Alas, the rural people's house complex!

  Zhou Guoqiang hasn't started building the house, but he's spent a lot of money to buy a motorized tricycle. The tricycle is bigger than Wu Youde's and can probably haul back five or six pigs in one trip.

  The car arrived home when Zhao 'Yu' Zhen specially set off a string of loud firecrackers, which attracted the attention of the villagers.

  The villagers all came running over to join in the excitement.

  Wang Jingjing's father, Wang Kang, envied the 'touch' of the brand new car: "Guo Qiang brothers, your life for the past two years is really enviable, look at you driving a three-wheeled motorcycle that's emitting smoke."

  His wife, Yu Cui Lian, gave him a white eye and said: "I don't know when you can drive a car like this back home."

  Zhao 'Yu' Zhen spoke to the villagers with a spring breeze on her face, while Zhou Guoqiang took out cigarettes from his body and scattered them outside, one by one, and soon a pack of cigarettes was gone.

  Zhou Guoqiang called Zhou Xiaoyun over and took out two dollars from his body, letting Zhou Xiaoyun go buy cigarettes.

  Sun Chengwu shouted from the side: "Hey, now they're all driving tricycles and still looking romantic. Don't even let the 'girl' buy a pack of Hongtashan cigarettes?"

  Everyone in the courtyard burst out laughing.

  Zhou Guoqiang was ridiculed and immediately said: "Alright, Cheng Wu brothers said that this Red Tower Mountain is expensive, but we must buy a pack for everyone to 'smoke' one 'puff'." He also took out 10 yuan and gave it to Zhou Xiaoyun.

  Zhou Xiaoyun felt her father's good mood and suddenly found that her own mood had also lifted, so she rushed to Zhou Qianqian's house to buy cigarettes.

  Zhou Qianqian's mother habitually handed over a packet of 1.4 yuan to Zhou Xiaoyun, but unexpectedly Zhou Xiaoyun shook her head and said: "Don't buy this today, bring a pack of the most expensive Hongtashan instead."

  Just as he was about to leave after getting the cigarettes, Zhou Qianqian came out and saw Zhou Xiaoyun.

  Zhou Xiaoyun was worried about Zhou Guoqiang still waiting for her at home to buy cigarettes, and didn't have time to chat with

  Zhou Qianqian chatted and then ran back home.

  Men chatting in the courtyard, one of them 'pulled' all the way up Red Tower Mountain, feeling great.

  This cigarette is very expensive, one pack can buy six or seven packs of Romantic, who would casually afford to smoke this cigarette.

  Shi Yongnian also came, and Zhou Guoqiang jokingly asked him, "It's not even been half a year, how come you're here to pay the fine again?"

  Shi Yongnian was ridiculed and teased by others all year round, so he had long been trained to have a thick skin. When he saw good cigarettes, his eyes lit up and he took one without hesitation.

  "Guo Qiang brothers, you've been 'mixing' quite well these two years, business is getting bigger and bigger!" Shi Yongnian sincerely praised.

  Zhou Guoqiang hurriedly showed humility: "Director Yongnian, don't tease me, I'm just doing some small business to support my family. Our old tricycle was too slow and laborious, so I had no choice but to scrape together some money to buy a new car. Our family is far less well-off compared to the wealthy families in our village."

  Zhou Guoqiang deeply understood the principle of being low-key, as everyone in the village was watching each other's homes. Who had money and who didn't was an eternal topic, he never liked to boast in front of people, even if his family had ten points, he would only say three at most. Yet, this also made many people jealous.

  So even if he had the money in his hands, he didn't rush to build a house. If his family had built the house early on, who knows what people might say behind their backs!

  Let's wait and see who will come!
