Chapter 361 Obsequious
Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs
Zhou Kai came to his grandparentâs place for dinner in the evening.
He promised his grandmother that heâll come over to have dinner.
They had mutton tonight. The mutton was stewed as soup with radish. Su Da Linâs cooking was excellent. Especially now he made added mutton soup to the menu for customers. The taste was perfected.
Zhou Kai was satisfied with his dinner. Then he went over to the chair to watch TV. The chairs were cushioned with thick cushions, so they were comfortable to sit on.
"Eldest Cousin, can you teach me how to punch?" Su Xun came over and asked. He stared at cousin with slight admiration.
"Now Iâm too full, I canât teach you. I will show you a trick or two later. Once youâre in school, whoever dares to provoke you, you can beat them." Zhou Kai said.
Su Xunâs eyes lit up.
"Da Wa, why are you teaching him this?" Zhou Xiao Mei was speechless.
Su Da Lin was also didnât know whether to laugh or cry.
"Whatâs wrong with teaching this? My mother taught us like this. Not allowed to bully others, but if anyone dares to bully us, fight back on the spot. Donât leave it overnight. If you canât beat them, run away. If not, get beaten for nothing." Zhou Kai said.
Even at this age, he still felt that his mother was extremely reasonable.
Zhou Xiao Mei laughed: "My fourth sister-in-law is really fierce. If they hurt anotherâs child, wouldnât she get annoyed by those in the villageâs scolding?"
She knew that some women in the village were very fierce in scolding people. They can keep at it for more than an hour.
"My mother said that was her business. We donât need to care about it. Itâs enough that we donât suffer." Zhou Kai grinned.
Su Cheng and Su Xun both looked envious. Their mother wouldnât allow them to fight.
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou didnât say anything.
The two of them had personally seen Secondâs get thrown down by Fourthâs wife.
Fourthâs wife was a civilized person. She wouldnât yell at people. But if she was really provoked, a neat over-the-shoulder throw can knock someone down.
After that, Secondâs wife behaved. Even when she often talk behind Fourthâs wifeâs back, she never dared to say it in front of her.
"Boys. Itâs normal to fight. As long as you donât bully others, thereâs no need to be afraid. In the end, donât let others bully you, right?" Zhou Kai said.
"Eldest Cousin is right." Su Xun nodded.
"Did anyone at school bully you?" Zhou Kai asked.
"Thereâs nobody. Still, I want to learn. Maybe I can use it in the future." Su Xun said.
"All right. Letâs sit down for now." Zhou Kai said.
But before he could teach his little cousin, old Madam Zhu from next door came over.
Mother Zhou introduced: "This is Granny Zhu."
"Hello, Granny Zhu." Zhou Kai nodded and greeted.
"Hello, hello." Old Madam Zhu was ecstatic. Zhou Kai dropped by every day since his return, but it always happened when she was out. That was why she hadnât seen him until now.
From this examination, old Madam Zhu was really satisfied.
This young man appeared really energetic. He was also tall and bulky. His body showed promise.
"I heard your grandmother say, you are only eighteen after the New Year. How did you grow so tall?" Old Madam Zhu smilingly spoke.
The more she looked at Zhou Kai, the more she felt that this was going to be her grandson-in-law.
"Got it from my parents. They are also very tall." Zhou Kai answered with slight modesty.
"I heard that your mother is a foreign language teacher at Bei University?" Old Madam Zhu asked.
"En." Zhou Kai nodded.
"Your dad is now self-employed? I wonder if being self-employed profitable?" Old Madam Zhu continued.
If her granddaughter marries over, it was necessary to understand the general situation. Hearing from Mother Zhou didnât count. It was better to personally hear it from this young man.
"I donât know how the business is. I donât manage it. My dad is in charge, but from what I see, itâs so-so." Zhou Kai glanced at her and replied.
"Then are you going to join the army in the future? Thatâs really good. Itâs suitable for a young man like you." Old Madam Zhu remarked.
Zhou Kai just smiled and did not say anything else.
Old Madam Zhu noticed that he didnât speak anymore, so she started talking with Mother Zhou, "Your grandson is really tall and big. Such a good young man."
Mother Zhou smiled modestly and said, "Just a bit too tall."
Because there were a lot of people, old Madam Zhu didnât say too much. She was prepared to talk to Mother Zhou in private. For now, they watched TV together.
Speaking of this, old Zhou family principles werenât bad.
Especially this ladâs parents. They were filial. If this lad marries her granddaughter in the future, he will definitely be filial to her too.
Old Madam Zhuâs granddaughter was called Zhu Zhen Zhen.
The next day, she brought her over for Mother Zhou to see. Mother Zhou smilingly remarked, "This is your granddaughter ah! Quite beautiful."
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Zhu became delighted and then urged her granddaughter, "Zhen Zhen, what are you waiting for? Greet Granny Zhou."
"Hello, Granny Zhou." Huang Zhen Zhenâs voice was similar to that of a mosquito.
Such a girl, Mother Zhou couldnât take a liking to. She liked the open and generous type. None of her few daughters-in-law have such an obsequious temperament.
But this was someone elseâs granddaughter, so Mother Zhou didnât say anything. She just smiled and acknowledged it. âIâm going to cut the radishes. My grandson said he wants to eat my pickled sweet and sour radishes. I wonât chat with you."
"Alright. You busy away." Old Madam Zhu smiled.
She took Zhu Zhen Zhen home. Only then, she couldnât help but say: "Zhen Zhen, didnât Gran tell you to be more sensible? Know how to interact?"
"Gran, her family moved from a foreign town. How can they be as good as you say?" Zhu Zhen Zhen hesitantly muttered.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"What do you know? Young Kaiâs mother is a foreign language teacher at Bei University and his father is a self-employed person. I heard old Madam Zhou said that the business was doing well. Young Kai himself is outstanding. You donât want this, then what do want?" Old Madam Zhu uttered.
"Gran, what you say is right but I havenât seen him yet." Zhu Zhen Zhen bowed her head.
In front of Mother Zhou, she appeared meek, but in private it wasnât so.
"You still donât trust Granâs eyesight? Gran had never seen such a spirited young man. Although he is a year younger than you, it doesnât matter at all. He is much taller than you. If you donât believe your Gran, ask your grandfather. Your grandfather had met Young Kai.â said old Madam Zhu.
"Donât be so enthusiastic. I feel Young Kai might not be interested in Zhen Zhen." Uncle Zhu couldnât help say.
Old Madam Zhu didnât like these words: "Why wonât he be interested in a girl like Zhen Zhen? Whatâs more, he is going to be a soldier in the future. Zhen Zhen will have to stay at home. Itâll be hard on Zhen Zhen. What is there to dislike? Zhen Zhen hasnât said anything yet."
Old Mister Zhu stopped talking.
"Gran, when will he come? I will check him out." Zhu Zhen Zhen lowered her head and said.
