Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs

Chapter 437 Importance of a good wife



"Sister Er Ni got a boyfriend?" Zhou Kai asked in amazement: "A relative of the god-grandfather?"

They were both surnamed Wang, so he asked.

"Kind of. But he wasn’t introduced by god-grandfather. He is a manufacturer that our clothing store cooperates with. He started the garment factory. Extremely rich. He has taken a fancy to Sister Er Ni. Right now, he’s dating Sister Er Ni and seems to be anxious about marrying Sister Er Ni. However, Sister Er Ni has no plans to marry yet." Zhou Gui Lai explained.

"He started his own factory? How old is he?" Zhou Kai asked.

"Don’t misunderstand. He’s not those kinds of middle-aged uncle. He is six years older than Sister Er Ni. Not too old." Zhou Gui Lai said.

Zhou Kai nodded. Six years was acceptable.

"How does he treat Sister Er Ni?" Zhou Kai continued questioning.

Naturally, Zhou Kai cared. He grew up with this cousin, Zhou Er Ni.

"You can ask Grandfather if he’s satisfied." Zhou Gui Lai replied.

"Wang Yuan is pretty good." Father Zhou nodded.

Toward Wang Yuan, Father Zhou couldn’t pick any fault. If his granddaughter can marry Wang Yuan, Father Zhou approved. He believed that Er Ni will be treated well in the future.

"Furthermore, he got some relationship with God-grandpa. The grandson of God-grandfather’s childhood friend." Zhou Gui Lai mentioned.

Old Wang said: "That kid dare not treat Er Ni badly."

Zhou Kai was relieved now. But he was also a little interested in taking a soak in the hot springs.

Sadly, it can’t be tomorrow. Gui Lai will take the college entrance examination tomorrow. Once he finishes the college entrance examination, they can relax together.

After the two brothers finished washing, they came to that side together. Mother Zhou cooked a bowl of noodles. Zhou Kai and Zhou Gui Lai ate it together.

Two poached eggs in one bowl of noodles. Quite delicious.

"My mom used to make this for us." Zhou Kai smilingly remarked.

"Your mother always knew to make good stuff." Mother Zhou said.

"I still remember the candied-centered eggs that Mom made for us when we were in the village. They were so delicious." Zhou Gui Lai spoke.

"That was when you were seven or eight, right? Only made it once and you still remember?" Zhou Kai was surprised.

"How can I not remember? It was so delicious. Sadly, Mom hadn’t made it since then." Zhou Gui Lai lamented.

"Once you have finished the college entrance examination, go and ask mom to make it for you." Zhou Kai said.

The two brothers had eaten up the noodles and felt a little stuffed. Mother Zhou made sufficient quantity.

"Tomorrow, both of you come over. The stewed chicken will be shared between you." Mother Zhou said.

Zhou Kai and Zhou Gui Lai agreed. Old Wang returned to the campus. Zhou Kai and Zhou Gui Lai sent him back and then started to make their way home.

At this time Zhou Er Ni, Hu Zi, and Gang Zi should finish their evening classes. So they made a detour and waited for them to go back together.

They hadn’t seen Zhou Er Ni, Gang Zi, and Hu Zi yet. Instead, they saw Xu Sheng Qiang coming out first.

"Isn’t that Sheng Qiang?" There were a lot of people at the school gate. Zhou Kai thought he had mistaken the person for someone else and halted.

Xu Sheng Qiang came here on a bicycle. He was probably in a rush as he didn’t see them and passed by.

"It’s him alright." Zhou Gui Lai nodded.

"What’s the situation?" Zhou Kai asked.

"Didn’t you know? Sister Sheng Mei married out." Zhou Gui Lai said.

Zhou Kai’s eyes widened: "Sheng Mei married?"

"En. She got married at the end of last year. She found him herself." Zhou Gui Lai explained. He recounted Xu Sheng Mei and Zhao Jun’s affairs. She was pregnant and miscarried. Due to that, Xu Sheng Qiang was brought here.

Zhou XuanKai was stunned. He didn’t even know that so many things had happened during the year he didn’t go home!

Then his face turned dark and coldly sneered: "Only beating Zhao Jun into the hospital! He got off lightly"

"It’s all in the past. Eldest brother, don’t get revenge after the incident is over. Sister Sheng Mei also got some responsibility in this incident. One hand can’t clap by itself. Mom couldn’t be bothered to care about those siblings now. They can’t settle down at all." Zhou Gui Lai persuaded. He also recounted how Xu Sheng Qiang beat someone into the hospital because the guy made a remark about him and nepotism not long after he arrived here.

Zhou Kai frowned.

Just as he was about to say something, Zhou Gui Lai saw Zhou Er Ni, Hu Zi, and Gang Zi coming out and shouted their names and beckoned them over.

"Why are you picking us up?" Zhou Er Ni smiled.

"Just after returning from grandparent’s side and remembered class is almost over for you. So we came here. Why didn’t Brother-in-law come here?" Zhou Gui Lai asked.

The brother-in-law he mentioned was Wang Yuan.

Zhou Er Ni gave him an eye-roll: "Stop chattering. You have the college entrance examination tomorrow. Why are you still coming out?"

"It’s because of the college entrance examination, I got to relax. I will do my best tomorrow." Zhou Gui Lai stated, "Eldest Brother hasn’t seen Brother-in-law yet."

"He went back to Wang’s house yesterday." Zhou Er Ni answered.

The group went home.

"I didn’t know the whole year I didn’t come back, you guys married or date one by one." Zhou Kai emotionally said.

Zhou Er Ni pursed her lips and smiled.

They walked Zhou Er Ni to the dumpling shop and the boys went home.

Because Zhou Gui Lai’s college entrance examination was tomorrow and Zhou Kai was travel-worn, so they went to bed early.

Lin Qing He was still whispering to Zhou Qing Bai in their room.

"Our eldest is nineteen and still haven’t opened up in that aspect? How old were you when you started wanting to marry a wife?" Lin Qing He asked.

Zhou Qing Bai coughed dryly and responded, "Leave him alone. He’ll think about it when the time comes."

He didn’t actually have any thoughts in this aspect back then. It was his mother who was in a hurry, so it was arranged. He submitted a report and went back to the village to get married.

The days after he went back didn’t add up to a month.

To be honest, when it came to feeling, then he didn’t have any. After he returned to the village later and she arrived, he realized the benefits of having a wife. He also realized how important it was to a man and a family a good wife was.

"When the time comes, what should to do if Mei Jia was chased by someone else? Must strike as early as possible," Lin Qing He said.

She decided to get her eldest son to bring a gift and sit at Weng’s house tomorrow. Mother Weng was kept bringing it up. If he were to be her son-in-law, it would be equivalent to having another mother doting on her eldest.

Zhou Qing Bai didn’t know what to say. Then again, it was right. Although a good man has no fear of not getting a wife, the good ones got to be settled first.

"When Eldest gets married, our first task will be completed." Lin Qing He said as she leaned into his embrace.

Life seemed to be long, but in fact, it went too fast.

Thinking back about this, she felt that when she had just arrived, the boys were still snotty and dirty turnip heads.

Now they reached marriageable age. She and her family Qingb Bi were also old.
