Chapter 503 Doubt

Chunxiang was not angry about the concerns between Meng and Old Man Zheng, and said shyly: "Zhou Hu's injury has not healed yet, especially when his leg is broken, he needs to recuperate for several months. He cannot come to home for the time being. If you can wait, he will heal and I will take him back. If you can't wait, you have to go to town."

Meng wanted to see someone earlier, so she said, "He saved you, so of course we went to the town to see him."

Chunxiang thought so too, so she nodded and agreed.

Old Man Zheng thought of his two grandchildren and asked, "Have you ever told Xiaoqiang and Niu Niu? The brother and sister are not unhappy, right?"

When Chunxiang heard this, she shook her head hesitantly: "I'm afraid they can't accept it, so she plans to wait until you see someone."

If her parents don’t agree and don’t like Zhou Hu, Chunxiang plans to repay him for saving her favor in other ways. After all, she has a good impression of Zhou Hu, but this good impression has not made her lose her mind and supports her to fight against her parents for a man.

If Zhou Hu happened to be able to enter the eyes of her parents' family, everyone would be happy. Not only did they repay Zhou Hu, solve her lifelong affairs, but they also made her parents' family feel completely relieved, so she did not rush to let her two children know.

"This is OK. If you have a good person, you can let the brother and sister stay with him first, and you will make it clear when the time comes." Meng's idea coincided with Chunxiang's, and she didn't want her daughter and her two grandchildren to make trouble for this matter.

"Mom, I understand." Haruka replied.

Finally, Old Man Zheng asked Sang Ye’s opinion and asked her if this arrangement was inappropriate.

Sang Ye shook his head: "There is nothing wrong. I will talk about what happened next when I see someone."

The matter was settled. After Sang Ye arranged the matters at home and outside, he took a day to go to the workshop in the town with the Lantern Festival, who could not leave. The people in the workshop only thought that they had something to do in the town, but did not suspect that they were visiting Zhou Hu specifically.

In order to give Zhou Hu a good environment for healing, Chunxiang arranged an independent room for him. This room was an independent dormitory in the workshop. It was originally for the manager to live in, but now it is empty. Chunxiang is not convenient for him to come here, so it is taken care of by Zhou Xiaomei or Zhou Aunt Zhou, that is, the mother of the brother and sister.

Zhou Hu had already received the news, and he ordered Zhou Xiaomei to dress him up early in the morning, shaving and changing clothes, and cleaning the room inside and out, trying to make himself see the Zheng family.

It was already the last moment, and Zhou Xiaomei cooperated. She did whatever Zhou Hu said. She also brought some bamboo strips and a half-woven flower basket to make him look good.

Even Zhou Hu's injuries have not been completely healed yet. Not only is the wound on his head wrapped in a circle of cloth, but his broken legs cannot move at will. He has been lying in bed recently, and his complexion is not very good.

He was bored in the room for half a month, but he remembered to walk around, but the doctor didn't say he could get out of bed, so he didn't dare to get out. He was worried that his leg injury would not heal, and he would really become a cripple by then.

When Sang Ye and others came over, they saw Zhou Hu leaning on the bed and weaving a small flower basket clumsyly.

Seeing them, Zhou Hu was confused at first. After reacting, his face turned red. He hurriedly put down the small flower basket and wanted to get up. He stuttered and said, "Hello, the boss, the master, and the wife of the boss."

"If you meet someone, just call me uncle and aunt. We are a farmer family, so I won't talk about those false heads." Old Man Zheng and Meng looked at him and thought Zhou Hu was a honest person. In addition, he saved his daughter, so the impression was even better. When he heard him call him Master, the old lady was particularly uncomfortable.

Seeing that he was about to get up, Old Man Zheng quickly pressed the person back: "Your injury has not healed yet, don't get up."

Zhou Hu felt a little embarrassed, his face looked even redder: "It's good if uncle and aunt are not surprised."

Meng smiled and waved her hand: "It's not strange, you can just lie down peacefully, you are not an outsider."

Now, not only Zhou Hu was embarrassed, but even Chunxiang who followed him blushed.

Mang Ye stood aside with Lanxiao in his arms, but his eyes fell on Zhou Hu from time to time, with undetectable thinking.

The atmosphere was just right. Zhou Xiaomei, who had gone out at some point, came back with a few cups of hot tea and said enthusiastically to Sang Ye and others: "It's very cold, drink a cup of hot tea to warm your body!"

The few people did not refuse and each brought the tea to drink. Unexpectedly, it was not ordinary tea, with a few sweet and sour textures, and it tasted very refreshing.

Meng Shiqi said: "What's added here? It tastes so good."

Zhou Xiaomei said with a smile: "Auntie, what is added to it is dried hawthorn and honey. It is from my hometown. It is said that drinking it often is good for your body!"

Meng nodded, couldn't help but take a few more sips, and praised: "It's better than bitter tea."

Zhou Xiaomei was very happy: "Auntie likes it, oh there are still many there. If you like it, take some back later. When you want to drink it, just put a few slices into the boiling water and pour some honey. It's very convenient."

Meng was embarrassed to ask for something from a junior, so she said, "There are hawthorn tablets in the pharmacy. I'll go back later and buy some of my aunt. You don't have to spend money."

But Zhou Xiaomei said, "This hawthorn slice was made by buying hawthorn myself. It's not worth it. Auntie, don't be polite."

Meng likes Zhou Xiaomei's cheerful and generous spirit very much. She feels that her personality is very similar to Sang Ye's daughter-in-law, and she is naturally less prepared.

After hearing what she said, the impression was even better, and she praised: "What a clever girl. Then I thank you. I will bring you some honey from my house and drink more yourself."

Honey is not cheap. Even if the Zheng family's life is getting better and better, Meng is reluctant to drink it openly, but she is embarrassed to ask for something from a little girl for nothing, so she wants to exchange it with honey.

Zhou Xiaomei refused to ask for it, but Meng insisted on giving it to her. She refused but had to agree. She said it was particularly beautiful: "Hawthorn slices are very cheap, but they were exchanged for my aunt's honey, which made me greedy for the cheap."

Meng laughed and patted Zhou Xiaomei's hand and said, "I don't know who will be cheaper in the future if such a talking girl is so good at talking."

Zhou Xiaomei was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to look up. She threw a word to burn hot water, and then covered her face and ran away hurriedly.

Zhou Hu showed an awkward expression, as if he was afraid that the Zheng family would think Zhou Xiaomei was rude, so he quickly explained to him: "My little sister has not promised her, so she is a little shy. I hope the boss and uncle will not be surprised."

Meng waved his hands repeatedly: "It's commonplace. My little sister has a good temperament, and my aunt likes such a girl."

Zhou Xiaomei can take care of Zhou Hu who cannot take care of herself, and Zhou Hu can also speak for Zhou Xiaomei. In Meng's opinion, the brother and sister have a good relationship and are both very good in temperament. Don't worry too much about Chunxiang marrying into the Zhou family and having a disagreement with Zhou Xiaomei's sister-in-law.

What made her a little regretful was that she had not seen Zhou's mother. I wonder what kind of personality Zhou's mother was, and whether she would be a bad mother-in-law like the old woman in the Fu family. Just looking at the temperament of the brother and sister, she was not very worried that Zhou's mother would be difficult to serve.

She didn't know that Zhou's mother was not present and the brother and sister made a special arrangement, just to give them a sense that they were both real people and would not take advantage of their injuries to take advantage of their injuries to be lazy and not work. She also pointed out that Zhou's mother and Zhou Xiaomei took turns to take care of Zhou Hu, the injured, and did not delay the work in the workshop.

The group stayed in Zhou Hu's house for half an hour, and talked about some things about Zhou Hu's hometown. Zhou Hu didn't like to talk much, in fact, he was afraid of saying too much, but Zhou Xiaomei talked about her hometown with a look of memories.

When talking about his father who died early, both brother and sister were red in their eyes, which made Meng cry.

At this moment, Sang Ye, who had not spoken out much, asked Zhou Hu: "I have heard about the disaster in Qingzhou five years ago. It is said that most people in some places starved to death, and those who did not die survived by eating human flesh. I wonder if it is true."

Zhou Hu was caught off guard when asked, and looked at Sang Ye suddenly, with a moment of ferocious expression. When he reacted, he hurriedly stopped it and covered it up, "Okay, there should be, oh, oh, you escaped early, and you have never seen it."

Mang Ye seemed not to see it, nodded while tidying up the open clothes of Lantern Festival and said, "Every time there is a serious natural disaster, I can always hear similar rumors. I think it must be true."

Zhou Hu wanted to say something else. Zhou Xiaomei shook him and asked him to stop talking. She wiped her tears and said, "I was only nine years old that year. It was my father's back that I couldn't walk on the road. He also said that people would eat people in times of great disasters. He also told me not to run around with my brother. Unexpectedly, I didn't expect that all of them escaped, but my father..."

After saying that, Zhou Xiaomei could not suppress her mouth and tears fell down, as if she was too sad and could not continue to say anything anymore.

Meng felt very distressed and hurriedly comforted her: "Don't cry, don't cry, now you are fine, your father is at ease with spirit in heaven."

Zhou Hu was also wiped with his eyes turned around, his back trembling constantly, as if he was extremely sad.

As a result, it seemed like Mulberry Ye was wrong, and he applied salt to the wounds of the brother and sister.

When the brother and sister stopped crying, their emotions were still very depressed, so the group came out of Zhou Hu's house. On the way, Meng kept sighing that the Zhou brothers and sisters had a pitiful life experience and wanted to protect Zhou Xiaomei and let her marry into a good family.

Sang Ye agreed a few times and turned the topic on Zhou Hu himself. The thing Meng was most anxious about was Chunxiang, so he put the media aside and came to Chunxiang's study where he worked. He couldn't wait to ask Sang Ye: "How are you looking at people? Have you seen anything?"

Sang Ye put Yunxiao who was sleeping on the couch. He was about to say something. Seeing Chunxiang's nervous look, he suppressed his suspicion and smiled and said, "It looks pretty good, I don't see anything wrong."

Although Zhou Hu's reaction was a bit strange when she asked Zhou Hu's question of eating people, she couldn't say anything without any evidence. She could only observe secretly for a while to see if the Zhou family was as simple as it seemed on the surface.

As she said, Chunxiang breathed a sigh of relief. Meng did not notice that she was not telling the truth, and then smiled and said, "I don't think it's good. The whole family is not a harsh person. In the future, Chunxiang will marry into their family, and I don't have to worry about her being ruthless."

Chunxiang said embarrassedly: "Mom, there is not a single thing about the horoscope yet. Why did you say you did so early?"

Meng made fun of him: "We have all met the real master, but this is still called "there is no sign of the eight characters?" After a while, Zhou Hu's injuries will be healed, and your elder brother will probably come back. Then we will sit down and discuss it carefully."

This time, Chunxiang didn't care about being shy and said with certainty: "We must wait for the eldest brother to come back. We can't just settle the matter before he saw anyone."

Seeing that Chunxiang was not in a hurry, Sang Ye felt a little relieved and reminded: "Before your elder brother comes back, don't get too close to Zhou Hu, so that others can notice something."

Worried that the Zhou family had really had problems and they were afraid that they would make tricks on Chunxiang, he continued: "The Zhou family is a foreigner and a hired worker in our workshop. Your identities are a bit bad. If it was reported early and made outsiders discuss it, they would probably say that Zhou Hu was having a soft meal. Even if he didn't say it, he would feel uncomfortable."

Chunxiang didn't know the real intention of Sang Ye's proposal, but she thought she was really thinking about her and Zhou Hu, and said gratefully from the bottom of her heart: "Fortunately, my sister-in-law reminded me! My sister-in-law don't worry, I know how to do it, so I won't let people gossip."

Chunxiang, who was fooling around, slipped into the yard while they were not paying attention and began to "buy" plants that did not hibernate, asking them to help stare at the Zhou family, and immediately tell her if there is any inappropriateness.

These plants were planted after the workshop was repaired and the mulberry leaves were planted. It can be said that she is the rebirth of the plants. These plants knew that they had any benefits and they all agreed happily.
