Xia Xin had no objection and just asked, "Then what have we been doing here these two years?"
"Don't worry, I will make money to support you," Zhou Yin reached out to hold her hand and whispered, "Just stay here and take your daughter to walk around the village every day and talk to your sisters-in-law.
.”
He said: "The people in our village are very kind, you will like them."
Zhou Yin was right, the people in Qili Village were very kind, whether they were the people who came to see her at Lao Zhou's house or the people she met when she went out, they were all very kind and enthusiastic to her.
Today, Lao Zhou's family invited people in the village to have a meal, but when each family came over, they not only brought rice and noodles, but also eggs and vegetables, and some brought meat. It didn't look like they were eating noodles at home, but like they were going out.
Picnic.
Xia Xin was so surprised by what she saw that she couldn't help but ask Xiao Qian in a low voice, "Is this how drinking is done here?"
"No," Xiao Qian said after a pause, "They are grateful to my uncle."
Xia Xin said "Huh?" in confusion.
Xiao Qian: "When there was a drought here in the past, my uncle found work for them. The people in the village survived because of that work, so they are very grateful to my uncle."
She told in detail how Zhou Yin sold himself out and found such a job in the village...
Xia Xin was slightly surprised and turned to look at Zhou Yin who was surrounded by people. She only knew that he sold himself to survive because of the disaster in his hometown, but she didn't know that there were so many other things involved.
Zhou Yin turned around and met her eyes. Seeing tears in her eyes, he couldn't help but squeeze out of the crowd, pulled her back to the room, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Someone is bullying you?"
Xia Xin shook his head, stretched out his arms to hug him, squeezed her whole body into his arms, and said dullly: "I just feel sorry for you all of a sudden."
Zhou Yin couldn't help but laugh, "Silly lady, even if you feel sorry for me, it should be me who feels sorry for you, right?"
Xia Xin hugged him tightly and said nothing.
He guessed something, so Zhou Yin hugged her, patted her, and comforted her softly: "It's okay, it's all over. Don't you think I'm living well now?"
Xia Xin said softly "Yeah".
The old Zhou family simply treated the villagers to a meal as a welcome to Zhou Yin's return.
Mr. Bai, who had just moved here not long ago, heard the excitement on the other side of the river and couldn't help but stand by the bridge and look over there.
Mrs. Bai passed by and said, "If you want to see the excitement, go and see it."
Master Bai immediately refused: "I don't want to see it, don't talk nonsense."
Why would he want to watch the fun?
Although he said this, Mr. Bai still couldn't help wandering over, and walked down the river for a while, and successfully met Zhou Yin and exchanged a few words.
Mr. Bai came back and said to Mrs. Bai: "Qili Village not only has good Feng Shui, but also has nice people. I think the newly returned Zhou Yin is pretty good and will definitely do something great in the future."
Mrs. Bai doesn't want to talk to him. She still doesn't understand why he moved here. It's not close to the county seat and the transportation is not convenient.
Zhou Yin also thought that Mr. Bai was good, and said to Zhou Jin: "I didn't expect that our village would be so poor that a landlord would move in. Brother, would life be better if there was a landlord in the village?"
Zhou Jin thought for a while and said, "It's easier to find jobs than before."
He said: "In the past, the land of Mr. Bai's family was given to the steward. The steward looked down on our Qili Village and always lived on the other side of Dali Village. The people from Dali Village were hired to sow and harvest.
, Now that Master Bai has come to live in the village, when the land needs people, people from our village will naturally be used first. Sanlang has made a lot of money working for Master Bai this year."
Zhou Yin nodded thoughtfully, "I see there are still a lot of wastelands in the village. I wonder if I can buy some..."
Zhou Jin perked up and immediately said: "Let me help you ask, if you have money, it is better to buy land. With land, you will have something to rely on in the future."
Zhou Yin came back to his senses, smiled and said: "I will decide after I go to the county seat to see it."
"What are you looking at?"
"It depends on the work," Zhou Yin said: "I asked the caravan to help me transport some things back. I will go get them tomorrow. If there is a job suitable for me in the county, I will make money in the county from now on. If not, I will think about it again.
It’s about farming.”
"Let Dalang go with you."
"The fields are busy. The farming season has been delayed because of my return these two days. I can go alone," Zhou Yin said, "Our village is not very far from the county seat, and I still have a car."
Zhou Jin thought the same thing. Although Zhou Yin hadn't come back for many years, the road to the county seat had not changed. He was delayed for two days in the field and couldn't delay it any longer.
So Zhou Jin nodded.
As soon as Xia Xin heard that Zhou Yin was coming to the city, she wanted to follow him.
Zhou Jin knew that she was shy and a little afraid of being alone with people here, so he agreed, "Okay, you go and visit Luojiang County."
He leaned close to her ear and whispered: "If you like the county town, then we can live in the city in the future."
Xia Xin: "Don't you want to live in the village?"
"There are too many people in the village," Zhou Yin reached out and touched her head and said with a smile, "You can't hide at home all the time, right?"
Xia Xin's face turned slightly red and she whispered: "I, I am also very courageous."
"Yes, you are brave, but you are not used to communicating with too many people," Zhou Yin said casually, "You are also easily surprised."
Xia Xin punched him.
Zhou Yin covered his chest and said, "The greatest courage is to beat your husband."
Zhou Yin wanted to take her daughter with her, but she didn't know if she was tired. She had been sleepy for the past two days. If anyone hugged her, she would burst into tears.
When Mrs. Qian saw her, she took the child over and said, "It's not good for such a young child to go out. It would be bad if she loses her soul. If you want to go, just go by yourself. Leave her at home and I will take care of her."
Zhou Yin hesitated: "But..."
"Go on, go early and come back early," Qian warned: "Bring two umbrellas. I think it may rain recently, so bring them just in case."
Zhou Yin glanced at his daughter and saw that she was clenching her fists and closing her eyes, falling asleep, but there were still tears hanging from her eyelashes.
He carefully stretched out his fingers to wipe away the tears, feeling a little distressed, "Okay, leave her at home, Xinniang and I will go back as soon as possible."
Xia Xin was reluctant to leave, but hesitated, "If she wakes up and can't see me..."
Zhou Yin just wanted to take her out to relax, so he hugged her and walked out, "Don't worry, my sister-in-law is much better at raising children than us. Can she still cure your daughter?"
After Zhou Yin got into the car, he helped Xia Xin get in. He also jumped on the car, flicked his whip and walked slowly to the county seat.
They walked around the county town and bought some things before going to the store to pick up their consignment.
In fact, there were not many things, just two large boxes, one of which contained some of their valuable clothes and fabrics, and the other contained some jewelry, valuable furnishings, pens, inks, papers and inkstones.
Oh, there are also some things like house deeds and title deeds, which are packed in another box.
When they came back, it was more dangerous to carry these things with them and easier to lose, so they entrusted a caravan to transport them.
They often take on this kind of incident, and it's much cheaper than Zhou Yin and others to spend escorts.
After counting, Zhou Yin said there was no problem, so he got in the car and took Xia Xin home.
