The next day, Zhou Yang woke up from a hangover, his head was a little groggy and he felt nauseous!
After seeing off Li Changqing and Qiao Haisheng last night, Zhou Yang planned to go back to his home, but the old house sent Hu Zi to inform him that his second brother and second sister-in-law were back and wanted him to come and sit down!
Zhou Yang readily agreed, thinking that he hadn't seen his second brother and second sister-in-law for a while.
The old house made a lot of delicious food for the second brother and second sister-in-law to come back, so Zhou Yang had dinner at the old house.
Because he was happy, and because he didn't enjoy his drink at noon, my father-in-law served him wine again in the evening, and it was Maotai that Zhou Yang had previously honored him with.
Ever since, in the evening, Lao Li's house was changing cups and cups again, it was so lively!
Now that the atmosphere has reached this point, Zhou Yang can't say that he doesn't drink, right? He's not an outsider!
But with his small capacity for drinking, the moment he picked up the glass, the outcome seemed to be doomed!
In the end, Zhou Yang himself didn't even know how he got home, and his gorgeous body was completely shattered.
Getting up from the kang, Zhou Yang found that there was no one in the room and there was no sound in the main room.
I looked up at the clock on the wall, it was already half past nine.
After rubbing his swollen forehead, Zhou Yang immediately got dressed and prepared to go to the main room to wash up.
After opening the door, he saw Liu Yunlong squatting alone on the fire bench in a daze.
After seeing Zhou Yang, he immediately came back to his senses and said, "Are you awake?"
"Well, where are my mother and the others? Why aren't they at home?" Zhou Yang asked while scooping water into the washbasin.
"They were afraid that Bao'er would disturb your sleep, so they took him to the old house!" Liu Yunlong replied.
"oh!"
While Zhou Yang was washing his face, Liu Yunlong opened the lid of the pot and took out half a basin of millet porridge and two white-flour buns.
"Eat something, you will feel uncomfortable on an empty stomach after drinking wine!"
Zhou Yang felt really uncomfortable in his stomach, and he was not polite, so he took a big bite of it!
Just after eating, Zhou Yang suddenly heard someone calling him outside!
He immediately opened the door curtain and walked out, and then saw Feng Qi standing outside the door!
"Come in, why are you standing outside the door in this cold weather!" Zhou Yang said loudly.
Feng Qi immediately pushed open the fence gate in the yard and strode in!
Seeing that Feng Qi was a little shy, Zhou Yang took the initiative and asked, "Why are you here? You didn't go to work today?"
"No, what about... Zhou Zhiqing, I'm engaged today, and I plan to get married on the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. You should come to have a dinner then!" Feng Qi said with a hint of excitement.
Then, he took out a bag wrapped in brown paper from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Yang.
"Here are some candies and melon seeds, they are for Bao'er, please keep them!"
Zhou Yang was not polite and took it directly. He could refuse anything in the village, but not weddings with sweets and wine.
After receiving the wedding candy, Zhou Yang also asked with a smile: "Congratulations to you for getting engaged so soon. Is your wife still the girl from Zuojia Village?"
"Well, it's still Xiaoyue!"
"What conditions did her family put forward this time?" Zhou Yang asked again.
"The bride price is 8 yuan, 8 new clothes, and I won't mention anything else!" Feng Qi replied.
"No more 66?"
"Haha, there are many girls who want to marry into our village now, and there are not enough young men to support them. Even the half-bachelors in the village are rich and do not need any betrothal gifts!" Feng Qidao.
"What did I tell you? Don't worry. In less than a month, we can get married even without asking them!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Well, my brother and my sister-in-law said that this is all because of you, Zhou Zhiqing, so I have to invite you over when I get married no matter what!" Feng Qi said gratefully.
"Okay, I'll definitely go!"
Then Zhou Yang said again: "Your family also divided a lot of money last year, so don't be stingy. After all, marrying a wife only happens once in a lifetime. You have to spend what you have to spend. Don't let the woman think that we are stingy!"
"Well, my brother said he would buy Xiaoyue a watch and then build us a house after spring!"
"That's good!"
"Okay, Zhou Zhiqing, you go ahead, I have to notify the others!" Feng Qidao.
"Okay, then you should hurry up and do your work, I will definitely go when the time comes!"
"Um!"
After watching Feng Qi leave, Zhou Yang felt a lot happier, and the melancholy in his heart was slightly relieved!
As you can imagine, this is just the beginning!
As the economy of Babaoliang Village gets better and better, it will inevitably form a siphon effect on the surrounding areas. By then, girls from other villages will want to marry into Babaoliang Village, but no girls in the village will want to marry outside.
If things go on like this, the population of the village will inevitably increase rapidly!
And once there are people, it means there is a labor force. Coupled with related industries in the village, Babaoliang Village may become the second largest village in Huaxi Village!
No, if it develops from now on, Huaxi Village may become the second largest village in Babaoliang Village!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang couldn't help but laugh!
Back in the house, Zhou Yang saw that Liu Yunlong had washed the dishes and was about to go out to pour out the dirty water!
Seeing his diligent look, Zhou Yang immediately said: "Yunlong, you are guards, not permanent workers. You don't need to do these things in the future!"
"It's okay. I'm idle anyway. It just gives you time to translate more manuscripts!" Liu Yunlong said with a smile.
"That's so embarrassing!"
"What's there to be embarrassed about? If you say that Lao Fan and I live and eat at your house for free every day, then we would be even more embarrassed!" Liu Yunlong said.
"Okay, you can do it if you want. I can and will try to translate more information. I can't waste your kindness!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"hehe..."
At this time, Zhou Yang's hangover was almost gone. Thinking that he had not translated the manuscript for two days, he immediately returned to the main room, took out pens and papers, and immediately got into work.
I don’t know how long it took, but Zhou Yang was awakened by a gentle and tactful conversation coming from outside the house!
When he looked up, he found that Li Youwei and her mother were back, but Bao'er was not seen.
Apparently that girl went crazy with Huzi and the other older kids and stayed in the old house!
After stretching, Zhou Yang immediately stood up from the stool!
I have to say that it is indeed a bit uncomfortable to work on such a small bench in the countryside, and more importantly, it is a waste of money!
At this time, Zhou Yang couldn't help but miss the ergonomic chairs of later generations. That thing was much more comfortable than this small bench!
If there were no conditions, he would really want to do it all. Anyway, there is not much technical content.
At this moment, Li Youwei and her mother also entered the door.
After pushing the door open and coming in, her mother put a cotton rug on the kang, and then said to Zhou Yang, "Come here and try it on to see if it fits!"
Zhou Yang knew that his mother was doing sewing work for them at home every day during this period. First, he made a new cotton-padded coat for Bao'er, and then a thick quilt for Bao'er.
But he never expected that his mother actually made him clothes. You know, he and Li Youwei bought new cotton-padded clothes when they went to the capital!
"Mom, we have cotton-padded clothes!" Zhou Yang said.
"I just had some cotton left over from making Bao'er's quilt, so I made a quilt for you!" said the mother.
Zhou Yang immediately stepped forward, took off his thick clothes, and put on the bulging cotton jacket.
Although my mother was not very good at cooking, she was not good at needlework. After all, she came from a wealthy family, and the female celebrity had to pass the test.
Growing up, the clothes of the Zhou brothers were all made by their mother herself. Although the fabrics were relatively ordinary, her mother could always come up with something new, making him and his brother the envy of their peers.
Putting on the clothes made by his mother again, Zhou Yang felt warm in his heart!
Ye Lifang carefully looked at the effect of her son's clothes and said: "It looks a bit tight, but that's just the way cotton is. Once the cotton is pressed, it will be just right!"
"Um!"
At this moment, the clock on the wall rang one after another!
Zhou Yang immediately realized that it was already twelve o'clock and he had not cooked yet.
Then, he immediately got dressed, said hello to his mother, and walked towards the kitchen!
Since the preparation time was a little late, Zhou Yang immediately decided to make a simple meal of "fish roe" and take a bite!
This time the roe is not fish, but the boiled oatmeal fish commonly eaten by local people.
Zhou Yang then found the oatmeal noodles and started kneading the noodles and kneading the oatmeal noodles.
However, before he could reconcile, the door was knocked open!
Immediately afterwards, Tan Shiqing burst in out of breath...
