Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs Chapter 377 Promote their own people

Chapter 377. Promote their own people

Unable to successfully complain to old Mister Zhu, so she came to find her long-time neighbor, old Madam Hu.

After recounting what happened this morning, old Madam Hu glanced at her and said, "You haven't planted anything yourself this year."

"Wasn't I feeling lazy this year?" Mrs. Zhu said: "She planted so much over there and can't finish eating. We're neighbors here. It's nothing if I took some. She actually didn't me give any."

This year, she thought that the two families will be connected this year. In the future, let alone cuc.u.mbers, cabbage, and tomatoes, she can even ask for eggs from Mother Zhou. She raised so many chickens, so the eggs were laid very diligently.

From time to time, she can hear the hen's crow after laying an egg.

But who would have thought that a self-employed family like the old Zhou family would reject a girl like her granddaughter.

Nowadays, she can't bear to give a tiny bit of cuc.u.mbers and tomatoes.

Old Madam Hu didn't really want to talk to old Madam Zhu. They have been neighbors for so many years, so who didn't know each other's virtue?

Old Madam Hu wasn't just saying. With the way her granddaughter was, only she would thought she was a fairy. To her, she really didn't compatible with the tall Bei University graduate grandson.

Although Mother Zhou didn't tell her about this, they were neighbors. How can she not know?

Especially when Zhu Zhen Zhen came here every day and waited for her grandson at that door!

"There are still some in my yard. Come pick it if you want." Old Madam Hu said.

It was just some cuc.u.mber. It wasn't worth a lot of money.

Both of them had houses with a garden. It's just their area was a little smaller than Zhou's place. That's why they didn't raise chickens or anything. Only planted some cuc.u.mber or something and kept it for their own use.

Old Madam Zhu went in and picked seven or eight cuc.u.mbers and left.

Old Madam Hu hadn't paid any mind for a while. When old Madam Hu did notice that even the three half-grown ones were taken away as well and not one had been left behind, she couldn't help but curse twice.

Old Madam Hu came to Mother Zhou to pick some. Mother Zhou didn't plan to interact with old Madam Zhu, but she was still polite to old Madam Hu.

She heard old Madam Hu complain: "My yard has some planted and the one next door said she didn't. So I let her pick mine. Never thought she didn't leave any left for me. She picked them all away."

Currently, Mother Zhou didn't have a good impression of old Madam Zhu and she didn't make a remark to it. She just said: "I just picked some. Take some."

Old Madam Hu took four of them. Enough to eat was sufficient.

In the evening, Xu Sheng Mei, who was off work, came over. Now she always ate dinner here and stayed overnight. Zhou Er Ni had the whole dumpling shop to herself.

"Xiao Mei has come," Old Madam Hu was delighted to see her and smiling said.

"En. Have you eaten, Granny Hu?" Xu Sheng Mei greeted politely.

"I have eaten." Old Madam Hu replied and then looked around to make sure no one was around. She pa.s.sed over a hard-boiled egg and, whispered: "Save it for yourself."

"Granny Hu, this can't do. Take it back quickly and keep it for yourself." Xu Sheng Mei declined.

Her diet now was excellent, whether it was at her uncle's side or her grandma's side. Eggs weren't a rare thing.

But who would dislike free stuff though?

"La.s.s, it's just an egg. Nothing great. You helped me sweep the ground last time." Old Madam Hu persisted with a smile. Then she forcefully stuffed the egg over and whispered: "Eat it in secret. Don't let your grandma see."

"Granny Hu, this is not good." Xu Sheng Mei said.

"At this time tomorrow, Granny Hu is going to make a pair of shoes. How's your needlework? Can you come over and help me?" Old Madam Hu asked.

"My needlework is fine. If Granny Hu doesn't mind, I will come over to help Granny Hu tomorrow." Xu Sheng Mei smiled sweetly.

"Alright." Old Madam Hu nodded.

Xu Sheng Mei took the egg and left. Old Madam Hu was in a very good mood. Her grand-nephew was coming tomorrow, but it was time for him to see.

Xu Sheng Mei went to help the next day. As soon as she walked in, she saw a young man with a combed hair wearing leather shoes...

Naturally, Lin Qing He didn't know about these events. Xu Sheng Mei preferred going to her grandma's side and she never stopped her. After all, it was nothing.

Recently, she was planning whether she should hire someone to watch the store. For the men's clothing store. That way, Hu Zi can free his hands to set up a street stall.

She didn't plan to let Hu Zi watch the shop for the rest of his life. For a young guy like this, she wanted to give him more opportunities to go out and broaden his horizon.

The family was watching TV that night. Lin Qing He asked Hu Zi, "Hu Zi, is your younger brother called Gang Zi?"

"Ah? Yeah." Hu Zi froze and nodded.

"What is Gang Zi doing now?" Lin Qing He asked.

"Helping with farm work." Hu Zi replied. Although he didn't understand why his aunt suddenly asked this, he had some vague guesses. He couldn't help but look at his aunt.

Lin Qing He laughed, and said, "You know your aunt's temper. If I find that someone inappropriate, Aunt will drive them away. There is no human relations.h.i.+p to reason with. So Hu Zi, tell the truth to Aunt. How is Gang Zi? Is he suitable to come here to watch the shop? If not, let's not give people hope from the beginning."

"Aunt, he can do it!" When Hu Zi heard his brother was wanted, he said at once. He couldn't help being a little excited. When he went back during the New Year, his brother wanted to come with him.

But his mother disallowed it. Saying that he was already here, so his younger brother shouldn't come and cause trouble. In fact, if there was a labor shortage here, he felt his brother can do it.

"Gang Zi is sixteen years old this year. He is clever too. He will never steal and be lazy. If he does, you can send him back immediately without hesitation!" Hu Zi stated.

"This year, your cousin, Xu Sheng Qiang wants to come with his sister, but I didn't allow i.t Now I am willing to let Gang Zi come over, your eldest aunt (1st Sis) will have objections." Lin Qing He said.

Hu Zi was taken aback. He didn't know there was such a matter.

"But Aunt has always been handle things like this. Willing to promote own people, but those who are suitable. So I have to make it clear to you. Don't say Aunt is selfless later. Once Gang Zi is here and I'm not satisfied, I will send him back." Lin Qing He looked at him and reminded.

"Don't worry, Aunt. I will teach him. He will definitely know how to!" Hu Zi nodded hurriedly.

"Alright then. Yang Yang and Wu Ni will have to finish the exam soon. When the time comes, they will come. I will call your eldest aunt (Eldest Sister-in-law) and get your eldest uncle (1st Bro) to go over and talk to Gang Zi." Lin Qing He spoke.

A bright smile appeared on Hu Zi's face.
