Although the Chu family is now in decline, the house is still impressive in the whole village. It is a two-story wooden house with tiles and nearly ten large and small halls in total. Compared with the poor people who can't even build tile houses,
People are already doing much better.
If the lost property can be earned back in the future, the family will not have to worry about their lives.
Chu Nanzhi thought so.
Later, he led the mother and daughter together in the kitchen on the first floor while discussing the dishes, laughing and chatting.
Not long after, Liu Shuyang came back from picking some fresh vegetables from the field, but then he was firmly fixed in the kitchen like a wooden stake and refused to go out.
Chu Nanzhu saw him standing in front of the stove blankly, not doing anything, and suddenly became a little dissatisfied: "If you don't go out to take care of the children, what are you doing here?"
"My father-in-law and brother-in-law are here, what do I need to worry about?"
Liu Shuyang glared angrily, and suddenly stared closely at Chu Nanzhi who was chopping vegetables.
After pondering for a long time, he suddenly said in front of everyone: "Mother-in-law, cousin, don't you feel that my eldest sister seems to be a different person now?"
When Chu Nanzhi heard this, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, but she pretended to be calm and continued cutting the vegetables in her hand.
Chu Nanzhu put the vegetables he picked into a basin and washed them while replying:
"You still need to say that my eldest sister has certainly changed now. She knows how to care about her father and mother, and she also knows how to love her children."
As she said that, she looked at Liu Yun with joy: "Speaking of which, all this must be attributed to my mother. I went there to enlighten my eldest sister last time."
"No, no, I don't mean just that."
Although these things also puzzled him, what puzzled him more was not that.
He asked with doubts: "Sister, you said that even the county magistrate couldn't find the case, but you helped to find it easily. I have never seen you have such a talent before. Are you really that Taoist Ximen?"
What tips did I give you?"
"Liu Shuyang, are you looking for trouble?"
Chu Nanzhu angrily pushed him to the ground, and then slapped him randomly: "If you dare to mention anything about Taoist Ximen again, believe it or not, I will kick you out of the house."
Liu Shuyang desperately begged for mercy, got up in embarrassment and stood far away from the others.
Chu Nanzhi didn't even look at him. She pursed her lips and shook her head gently with a contented expression: "Brother-in-law, your eldest sister and I don't have to worry about my affairs. Anyway, if you want to continue to stay in this home, I will talk to you today."
You must remember what you said."
"That's what the eldest sister said."
Liu Shuyang smiled sadly.
Anyway, she has to live here for a while, and she has plenty of time to slowly find out her flaws.
The kitchen became quiet again for a while. Liu Shuyang looked at his mother-in-law chopping pig legs, and his heart suddenly became sour again. He pretended to smile and joked:
"Thanks to the luck of my eldest sister and brother-in-law. When I came to the house, they killed chickens and bought pork legs. Ci'er and I didn't get such a good treatment. We both drank porridge for several days, and even our mouths were dry.
No."
"You didn't ask for it."
Chu Nanxiang complained weakly.
Chu Nanzhi realized that the new son-in-law was stirring up trouble and trying to sow discord among the family.
The originally harmonious atmosphere was made dull by this guy. Chu Nanzhi was very disappointed. She looked at the water tank in the corner of the room that was about to bottom out and suddenly said to her son-in-law:
"Liu Shuyang, you have lost nine times out of ten in the casino over the years. In fact, you haven't figured out the secret yet. There is a big secret hidden in it. Do you know what it is?"
"What secret?"
Liu Shuyang was so excited that his eyebrows stood up when he heard about the casino.
"Go and fill the water tank, and then I'll tell you."
After thinking about it, she warned again with a serious face: "Don't break the bucket. If you spill a drop of water, I won't tell you this big secret again."
She knew very well that her little son-in-law had always been dishonest when working in the Chu family, and even deliberately broke the bucket when fetching water. Liu Yun was afraid that he would damage things, so she did everything herself.
Liu Shuyang was also doubtful, picked up the bucket and rushed out.
The kitchen became quiet again.
Taking advantage of this time, Chu Nanzhi continued to chop vegetables while explaining to the mother and daughter the ingredients and how to stir-fry the most delicious dish.
Mother and daughter listened very carefully.
After the meal was ready, Liu Shuyang filled the water jar with water as promised and did not break the bucket, which surprised Liu Yun.
And Liu Shuyang was so tired that he was sweating profusely and exhausted. He couldn't care about a table of delicious food. He followed Chu Nanzhi and still begged: "Sister, please tell me the secret of the casino."
"You want to know so much?"
Liu Shuyang hesitated: "Of course."
Chu Nanzhi stared at him with a serious expression: "The secret is that you are too stupid."
"Sister, you are kidding me."
"Of course I was playing tricks on you, and you didn't realize it until after I played tricks on you, but the people in the casino have been playing tricks on you for so many years and you still can't understand the truth, and you're still trying your best to get money inside.
What do you mean if you're not stupid?"
Chu Nanzhi explained it in detail, and through this brief test it was found that his intention to change was not firm.
You have to be careful about him in the future.
At this time, Sibaolin Ruijia also came up, looked at Liu Shuyang who was full of complaints and said seriously: "What my mother-in-law said is right, you have to listen to my mother-in-law."
"oh."
Liu Shuyang responded, but then realized that he had been deceived. With a furious look on his face, he chased him into the dining hall and saw a room full of people sitting upright, not daring to say anything.
During the meal, Liu Yun kept picking up vegetables for Lin Jinxiao and several Xiaobao. She put the biggest pig's trotters for Lin Jinxiao and put the best meat into the four Xiaobao bowls. This not only made Liu Shuyang look at her heart
Sour, even Chunan Zhizhi is a bit sour.
Sure enough, the most painful thing in the eyes of the mother-in-law is the son-in-law and grandson.
Lin Jinxiao accepted this favor calmly on the surface, but the doubts in his heart always troubled him, making it difficult to talk about it, and he had no appetite.
His cold eyes secretly glanced at Chu Nanzhi, who was eating seriously. The woman he faced every day now made him even more uneasy.
She is very good to the quadruplets now, and her attitude towards herself has also changed a lot.
If he asked the question in his mind in front of the Chu family, it would be easier if his father-in-law and mother-in-law did have a separated daughter.
But if this incident hadn't happened, wouldn't it make the entire Chu family suspicious of her?
Suddenly, he couldn't bear it anymore.
After all, both he and the quadruplets need her right now.
…
At night, after Chu Nanzhi bathed the quadruplets and changed Lin Jinxiao's medicine, Liu Yun came to arrange accommodation for the family.
The four little babies have been sleeping with Chu Nanzhi at home these past two days, so when they came to grandma's house, they naturally wanted to sleep with her.
Liu Yun immediately stopped complying, holding the quadruplets in her arms and patiently persuading them with gentle words:
"Baby, this is your first time at grandma's house. How about you let grandma sleep with you? Dad still has an injury on his leg. Let your mother accompany your dad to take care of him."
The quadruplets looked at each other in disbelief, their faces uncertain for a long time, but finally they seemed to have enlightened at the same time, and they nodded happily together.
The second and fourth treasures pulled Chu Nanzhi with smiles and asked smartly: "Auntie, let's go sleep with grandma and second aunt. You can take good care of daddy."
Dabao and Sanbao also came over and surrounded her, with evil smiles on their faces and they tried their best to promise: "Aniang, let's sleep with the master. You have to take good care of daddy, and we will definitely be good."
Then, she and Lin Jinxiao were forced into the largest wing on the west side of the second floor.
