Du Wanchun's nose felt sore as she felt very grateful. This was the first time since she was a child that someone wanted to love her.
She quickly got up and helped Aunt Zhou go to the kitchen to serve the dishes, "Mom, let me help you."
Aunt Zhou smiled and said, "You and Ruiyuan are tired from the journey since you woke up early in the morning. Go and have a rest. I can do it myself."
Du Wanchun didn't wait for her to refuse, grabbed the bowl from her hand, and carried it to the front room. ?.?????.ℂ??
Zhou Ruiyuan sat in the front room and looked up at her from a distance, his deep eyes full of tenderness that could not be blocked, "Madam, listen to me, rest first."
Du Wanchun put down the bowl and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I'm not tired."
After that, he called Zhou Feng and Zhou Zhao in the room: "Second brother, third brother, it's time to eat."
Zhou Feng heard the call, groped his way out of the room, and slowly sat down next to Zhou Ruiyuan.
Zhou Zhao, who was chopping firewood in the backyard, wiped his sweat and walked in: "Brother, sister-in-law, are you back so soon?"
"Yes." Zhou Ruiyuan responded softly and asked him, "Third brother, are your ears completely healed?"
Zhou Zhao nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, not only is it completely healed, I find that I can hear it more clearly than before."
Zhou Ruiyuan nodded lightly, "That's good. What are your plans for the third brother in the future?"
"First plant the land at home, and then..." Zhou Zhao said, stopped smiling, and glanced at Du Wanchun aside.
Zhou Ruiyuan said quickly: "It's okay, we are all a family, just tell me."
Zhou Zhao sat down and said slowly: "Then, go to Chenzhou."
"Why are you going to Chenzhou?" Aunt Zhou put the rice on the table and asked him.
Zhou Zhao said solemnly, "Go and serve in the army."
"Going to serve in the army? That means marching and fighting. Do you think you are still the same person as before..." Midway through her words, Aunt Zhou was so angry that she could not speak.
Du Wanchun quickly advised: "Mom, joining the army is a good thing. Maybe my third brother can find an official position in the army and come back."
Aunt Zhou looked unhappy, held Du Wanchun's hand, and sighed, "I'm not afraid that if he goes, he will never come back."
Zhou Zhao quickly said: "Mom, no. When I go to Chenzhou this time, I will go to Colonel Lin first. With him here, he will definitely not arrange for me to be just a soldier."
"Captain Lin?" Du Wanchun asked in confusion.
Aunt Zhou's eyes were a little panicked, and she quickly explained: "That's a friend I met in the capital. He went to Chenzhou to work as a soldier in his early years, and later he made meritorious service and became a school captain."
Du Wanchun comforted her with a smile and said, "Mom, wouldn't it be better if there was someone in the army to take care of me? My third brother is not young at all. It would be good to go out for training. It is better than being trapped in the mountains all the time."
As he spoke, he looked at Zhou Zhao and said, "The third brother is smart and capable, and will definitely be successful."
Zhou Zhao quickly followed with a smile and said: "Sister-in-law is right, mother, just believe me this time."
Aunt Zhou lowered her head and really couldn't make up her mind.
At this time, Zhou Ruiyuan spoke: "Third brother, go ahead."
Zhou Zhao was very happy after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Thank you, brother!"
Zhou Ruiyuan added: "But you have to wait until my leg is completely healed before going. The fields at home need someone to take care of them, and I don't want your sister-in-law to have to work hard."
Zhou Zhao stood up and nodded repeatedly, "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely wait until my family is settled before leaving."
Zhou Ruiyuan felt relieved and picked up the chopsticks to pick up food for Du Wanchun.
It's a duck egg that has been fried in oil, and it smells delicious.
Du Wanchun gave the duck egg to Mrs. Zhou, "Mom, all the dishes are here, let's eat quickly."
Aunt Zhou was originally looking sad, but she immediately felt better after hearing Du Wanchun's sweet voice.
Strangely enough, she always felt that there was something special about Du Wanchun, that is, you would feel happy when you looked at her, and you would feel happy as long as you talked to her.
She thanked God countless times for giving her such a good daughter-in-law.
"Child, you eat." Aunt Zhou took another piece of duck egg from the bowl and gave it to her.
Du Wanchun started eating with a smile, "Thank you, mother."
Aunt Zhou stopped arguing with Zhou Zhao. She took a mouthful of rice from the bowl and said, "Well, now that you have made up your mind, I won't say more. Just Zhao'er, remember not to cause trouble."
Zhou Zhao responded with a smile: "Okay, mother."
After lunch, Du Wanchun followed Aunt Zhou to the backyard to pick up duck eggs.
These two ducks in the backyard are particularly good at laying eggs. They laid hundreds of eggs in two or three days.
Aunt Zhou looked at the duck eggs and smiled from ear to ear. As she picked them up, she said to Du Wanchun: "In a moment, I will take some duck eggs to Aunt Zhang's house next door to exchange for a piglet. When the piglet grows, we will There is meat to eat.”
Du Wanchun smiled and nodded, "That's great."
Aunt Zhou laughed, "Besides, when the crops in our fields are ripe, we won't have to buy rice. When we have spare money, we can also repair the house."
"Yes, this house does need to be renovated." Du Wanchun said, looking up at the dilapidated adobe house in front of him.
Nowadays, the Zhou family not only needs to repair the house, but also needs to buy the fields, land, clothes, food, clothing, housing and transportation.
It is difficult to make more money just by selling radishes and duck eggs.
Du Wanchun suddenly thought of Aunt Zhou's incense bag, "Mom, can you make incense?"
