Chapter 43 Farewell
"Dad is in good health? Why didn't Ziqian come this time?" Zhang asked about something else. Ziqian is the daughter of her eldest brother's family, two years older than Taohua. She would have come with her elder brother and the others in the past.
"Don't worry about your father, he is in good health. He was originally going to come, but the yellow cow didn't know what. He didn't eat much these two days, so your father couldn't worry, so he watched at home. Ziqian caught a cold two days ago and didn't take her out." Zhou replied.
Taohua's grandma's family is a good life. She raises a big yellow cow, has more than ten acres of land, and has contracted forests and sold some wood. It is said that if a daughter-in-law from such a family background, her husband's family should be treated well. I really can't understand what Liu thought.
"Zi Qian is sick? Have you taken medicine? Are you getting better?" Zhang asked hurriedly.
"Haha, it's almost done, but I'm afraid I'll catch a cold again, so I didn't let her follow me. You don't know if she wants to come too much, so she'll have to have a hunger strike for me." Zhou said of her little granddaughter and couldn't help laughing.
"This child," Zhang couldn't laugh or cry, "I'm still as naughty as I was when I was a child."
"Sister Ziqian is really. She is so old and still so ignorant. Grandma, don't worry. I will go with my mother in two days. I will teach her a lesson for you." Taohua came over and said like a little adult.
After hearing Taohua's words and seeing Taohua's solemn appearance, everyone in the room laughed.
Zhou's tears were flowing out of his smile, and he kept saying, "Okay, peach blossoms are really a great treasure for grandma. When you look back, you must teach your sister Zi Qian a good lesson."
The meal ended for a long time, and it was very lively. Everyone had a smile on their faces, and the peach blossoms were warm in their hearts. They just felt very beautiful. She enjoyed the feeling of being happy under the knees of the elders, and her heart was soft.
When he finished the meal and cleaned up the dishes, Zhang rushed out of the kitchen to prevent them from making trouble here. Peach Blossoms fell one step behind and vaguely heard Zhang ask Zhou.
"I'll be there yet when I'm here?"
Zhou's voice was a little blurry and he couldn't hear it in real life. "It's better not to go. I think she doesn't want to see me..."
The one behind couldn't hear clearly. Taohua wanted to go to the door and listen for a while, but Lihua called her away and asked her to help see the embroidery.
In the afternoon, Taohua did not go out with Mingsheng and the others, but surrounded her grandmother and listened to the adults. They were all about family matters, but Taohua listened with relish. She felt that her grandmother had her own opinions on her words and things. She said to Zhang as if she was educating her daughter about how to do things. It is good to be humble in everything, but she could not be bullied. Taohua always felt that Zhou said this sentence had a different meaning, and couldn't help looking up at Zhang and Lihua. Taohua had a smile on her lips, and it seemed that her mother's gentleness and strength were hereditary.
Then he asked Zhang and Jin Dazhong what he planned in the future. Zhang happily talked about embroidery and said that he would go to the city to buy some paper, pens, drawings and patterns to make money after the New Year. Zhou nodded with a smile, and naturally he couldn't help but praise the peach blossoms.
"But this is also temporary. We are not as clever as those painters, and we still have to find something real to do. This is the business that can bring stable income to our family." Zhou warned.
Zhang nodded and said yes. Taohua secretly praised Zhou for understanding the truth. She really couldn't think of many tricks. In her memory, she could only think of some common patterns in modern times. After all, she was not a designer and would soon be over.
After talking to his son for a while, Zhou was about to leave. It was late in winter and it took a lot of time to travel for more than 20 miles. They left before dawn and arrived for a few hours. It was not safe at night, so naturally they had to go back early. Zhang was reluctant to let go, holding his mother's hand and refused to let go.
Zhou also forced himself to smile, his voice choked, and said, "You must live a good life. Don't worry about your parents."
"Mom!" Zhang wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say. He felt sad and couldn't bear it. She wanted to keep her mother by her side, but there was no extra room at all.
"Grandma, we can't bear to leave you!" Taohua and Lihua also came out, gathered around the car, and were reluctant to leave. Ziteng and his brothers also said goodbye to Jingsheng and asked them to go in a few days. Mingsheng's tears were rolling in his eyes, and he grabbed Zixi and the others' sleeves and didn't want them to leave.
"Okay, don't be sad. We will take the children to my mother's place in a few days. It will be dark this day. Don't let my mother and the others go to the night." Jin Dazhong came over and pulled Zhang Shi to tell.
Zhang's tears finally flowed down. He said goodbye to Zhou. Zhou's eyes were also moist, and he parted with Jin Dazhong's family in the cold wind.
"Auntie, goodbye to uncle!"
"Jingsheng, goodbye Mingsheng!"
Ziteng and his brothers stood in the car and waved.
"goodbye!"
Taohua and the others also waved.
It was not until the car could not be seen that Kim Dae-chung and Zhang took the children back to the house.
The next day, they hurriedly visited relatives and friends. When they were free in the afternoon, Taohua had time to discuss the previous plan with Jingsheng and also improve it. To be safe, the two decided to call Zhang Meng. With this strong man, they were not afraid of unexpected situations. So Taohua and Jingsheng came to Zhang Meng's house with a good thing. Several people discussed it in a sneaky way, with strange smiles on their faces.
Next, Jing Sheng began to inquire about Ergouzi from his friends in the village. It turned out that Ergouzi was a famous bad gangster in Yangtou Village. His father Li Erdan was addicted to alcohol and beat his mother as soon as he was drunk. So his mother ran away with someone just after giving birth to him. His father also sent him to school for a few days, but unfortunately he was not a good source of study. His father sent him to the school to see that he either fought with others or gambled with others. He slowly ignored it and saved money if he let him go. This kid gradually became even more lawless. Now he relied on knowing a few gangsters in the city, and took advantage of the New Year to bully children everywhere in various villages and forced the children to pay New Year's money, otherwise a few people would come forward to beat the people.
"I really wish I could catch someone and beat him up now." Zhang Meng clenched his hand into a fist and said angrily.
"It's so bullying." Mingsheng also bulged his face and said, "They should be sent to the government."
"It's not that easy. Those gangsters are not easy to mess with." Jing Sheng frowned.
"Calm down." Taohua is the old god. Although this kid has a pitiful life experience, it is not a reason for him to harm others. Taohua's mouth curled slightly and said softly: "I will let him spit out the money as much as he takes."
All the people came over and waved their hands, so the little heads gathered together again and began to chatter and discuss.
Early the next morning, Zhang Meng pushed his cart, Taohua and Mingsheng sat on it, Jingsheng and Zhang Meng walked side by side, and the group went to Yangtou Village.
When they were about to reach the entrance of the village, Taohua and Ming were born. Zhang Meng hid the cart in the woods beside the road, and then a few people followed the sparsely populated path to the backyard of a family.
After looking around, Taohua handed the prepared note to Zhang Meng. The paper and pen were originally asked Jing Sheng to borrow from Su Jinchen, but Zhang Meng said that there was one at his house. On weekdays, his father would teach him to read and read, which surprised Taohua.
Zhang Meng took the note, which was written by Taohua, and then asked Jingsheng to write it. He didn't read it at that time. He took it and looked at it at this moment. His tight face couldn't help but burst out laughing. Taohua quickly covered his mouth and asked him to whisper.
Zhang Meng was stunned. The touch on his lips was warm and soft. He could vaguely smell the faint sweetness in his breath. He looked up at the peach blossoms and felt a circle of ripples in his heart, and he could not calm down for a long time.
"What are you stunned? No one is here, go quickly." Taohua urged.
"Well, okay." Zhang Meng then realized his reaction, his face suddenly burned. Seeing that Jingsheng and Mingsheng also looked over, he quickly turned around and came to the back wall.
The back wall was also made of mud, and one person was more than twelve or thirteen years old. Although Zhang Meng was only burly and upright, he was much taller than his peers. In addition, he was born with divine power and looked as fierce as a little lion. At this time, he stepped back and took a few steps forward, then rushed forward, kicked hard, and then jumped out Lao Gao, holding the wall with his hand, and flipping in without much effort.
Mingsheng clapped his hands quietly behind him.
Seeing that Zhang Meng had flipped in, the few people rushed forward and lay on the wall to listen to the movement. Only then did they feel relieved when they saw that there was no sound.
Besides, Zhang Meng entered the yard. The yard was silent, and it was obvious that no one got up. Zhang Meng walked around the room and came to one of the rooms, which was the room where Ergouzi was.
The room was dirty and messy. Zhang Meng frowned and came to the bedside. Ergouzi curled up and slept in a bunch. The snoring sounded loudly. He probably wouldn't wake up if he carried the person away. The black quilt had not been washed for a long time, and it emitted a smell of mold. He covered his mouth and nose with disgust. Zhang Meng lifted the quilt and put the prepared note on the other party's chest. Then he quickly left the room. The air here was dirty and he didn't want to stay for a moment.
After leaving the yard, he nodded to Taohua and said that everything was done.
Then the few people left quietly, carefully along the way to prevent being seen.
Chapter completed!
