"Alright, then I won't eat it. I'll raise the rabbit first.”
Wu Xuhong's eyes dimmed as she took the rabbit over.
He was prepared to take it to a corner and place it there temporarily.
"Mom, how long has it been since we last ate meat?”
"During the time I was unconscious, she spent a lot of money to treat me. Look at how thin Little Red is.”
"Let's have a good meal today. I'll cook later.”
Wu Ziqiang advised.
He knew that with his ability, his family's life would definitely not be bad in the future.
It was just a rabbit. It was nothing to eat.
However, in Zhou Sufen's mind, she still treated Wu Ziqiang as a weak little boy.
She did not expect him to help her family at all.
In this era, a three-pound rabbit could be sold for more than two yuan.
The refined powder was only 261 cents per catty, the standard powder was only 170 cents per catty, and the millet was even cheaper, only 11 cents.
A rabbit could be exchanged for ten to twenty catties of staple food. It was normal for Zhou Sufen to be reluctant.
" Ziqiang," Zhou Sufen advised," a big rabbit can be exchanged for half a month's worth of food for our family. It's too wasteful to eat it all at once."”
Wu Ziqiang chuckled." If the rabbit is gone, I can catch it again. If the money is gone, I'll earn it again. I've already grown up. I'll take care of this family in the future!”
When Zhou Sufen heard Wu Ziqiang's words, tears flowed down her face."You're still smiling and spoiling this girl. That's two yuan.”
Seeing Zhou Sufen cry, Wu Xuhong panicked.""Mom, don't cry, don't cry. I won't eat the rabbit anymore, okay?”
"Is your mother such a harsh person? Don't eat all the rabbits in one meal. Leave some for tomorrow's meal.”
Zhou Sufen stopped her tears and said.
She wasn't crying because she felt sorry for the children eating rabbit meat, but because she was touched.
Her precious baby seemed to have grown up overnight. She was very pleased.
"It's true! Mom, you agreed!"
"Then I'll go boil water now.”
Wu Xuhong was so happy that she skipped to boil water.
"Look at your sister. She's been spoiled by you and doesn't look like a girl at all.”
Zhou Sufen smiled helplessly. She took Wu Ziqiang's basket and prepared to clean up the wild vegetables.
Wu Ziqiang felt the warmth of a family that he had never felt before. He was very pleased. This was the taste of home.
"Wu family's daughter-in-law, are you home?"
Suddenly, Yi Zhonghai's voice came from the door.
"I'm here, First Uncle. You're here!”
Zhou Sufen enthusiastically opened the door and welcomed Yi Zhonghai in.
Wu Ziqiang closed the basket and placed it on the table.
He looked up and saw a man who looked to be in his fifties. He had a buzz cut and some white hair.
He had a square head, a square face, and was very tall. He was wearing blue work clothes with a red badge pinned to his pocket.
He strode in with a bag of rice in his hand.
When Wu Ziqiang saw Yi Zhonghai, some unpleasant memories surfaced in his mind.
Yi Zhonghai was the master of the courtyard house.
His image in the courtyard was not bad. He gave people the impression that he was kind-hearted and charitable.
In fact, he was a hypocrite who liked to kidnap people every day.
Other than helping the Jia family, Yi Zhonghai often went to the Jia family. He had always only done superficial work for other families who were in trouble.
Even if it was the deaf old lady, he had also taken on the job and gained a good reputation.
In fact, the laundry, cooking, and taking care of the elderly were all handed over to an auntie.
He had specially brought food to his house today, so he reckoned that it was not something good.
In his later life, Wu Ziqiang had seen many people dissing Yi Zhonghai, so he was not interested in him.
"Wu family daughter-in-law, since your head left, your days will definitely not be good. I've allocated 20 catties of white flour for you.”
"It's just right to be self-reliant. It's not enough to just eat coarse grains. At least make a steamed bun with two-layer noodles to supplement it.”
Yi Zhonghai placed the bag of rice on the table and said with concern.
"How can I do that? A middle-aged woman's health is not good now. The white flour is expensive.”
When Zhou Sufen mentioned Wu Shengli, she couldn't help but shed tears and pushed the noodles back.
"You don't have to be polite. The children are still growing.”
"Grandpa Yi, I really can't take it."
Yi Zhonghai and Zhou Sufen greeted each other politely.
Wu Ziqiang observed quietly from the side.
Nowadays, it was not easy to buy white flour. He was not sure of Yi Zhonghai's intention to spend so much money to buy white flour.
However, since this old fox had brought the white flour, there was no reason for him to not want it.
Qin Huairu could eat, but they were having a harder time now, so they could eat.
Wu Ziqiang hugged the noodles in his arms and smiled."Mom, First Uncle sent this noodles sincerely. Let's not reject his good intentions.”
"In the past, when Aunt Qin's family was in trouble, I saw an old man doing good deeds like Lei Feng and giving white flour in the middle of the night.”
"First Uncle, I thank you for your noodles in advance.”
Yi Zhonghai was originally smiling when he heard the first half of the sentence.
However, when he said that, the smile on his face instantly froze.
When did this kid ever see him giving Qin Huairu white noodles in the middle of the night?
Usually, when he delivered the noodles, he would choose the dead of the night. It was impossible for anyone to notice.
If he were to find out, how could he still be the boss?
This was the reason why there were so many disputes in front of a widow's door.
Yi Zhonghai hurriedly explained," Ahem, then I saw that Huai Ru's family was having a hard time bringing up children, so I secretly gave them some money. There's no need to make such a thing public."”
"Yes, yes, yes. Ziqiang, don't talk nonsense. I'm just being kind.”
When Zhou Sufen heard Wu Ziqiang's words, she was shocked, and her face twitched twice.
She had never heard of anyone delivering noodles to a widow in the middle of the night.
If there was nothing fishy going on, who would believe it?
However, Qin Huairu's reputation had never been good, and she was used to the rumors.
However, he did not expect the righteous Yi Zhonghai to be involved.
This was quite intriguing.
"First Uncle, our family's conditions are not good, and we don't have any tea leaves. We can only trouble you to drink some hot water.”
Zhou Sufen quickly poured a glass of hot water for him and changed the topic.
"Don't feel wronged. It's good to drink more water."
"Actually, I came here today because I have something to tell you. It's just that the child is here, so it's not easy to say this.”
Yi Zhonghai blew at the steam in the cup and glanced at Wu Ziqiang, intending to send him away.
"First Uncle, now that my father is no longer around, I'm in charge of the family. If you have anything to say, just say it.”
Wu Ziqiang stood on the spot and looked straight at Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai was slightly stunned.
Usually, Wu Ziqiang was submissive. When he looked at him, he would unconsciously look at his toes from the corner of his eyes and his back would be slightly arched.
However, Wu Ziqiang today made Yi Zhonghai notice a change.
The other party's eyes were bright and piercing as he looked straight at him.
