"I've seen this compost. Your compost is okay. I'll come over and take a look at it during the spring plowing..." Old Man Zhu reminded Widow Qin, telling her when to water and what to do at what time, and she must not let it leak.

.

With this thing around, it will be easier to plant the land in the spring, and maybe there will be a bumper harvest in the fall.

Widow Qin listened with seriousness on her face: "Brother Zhu, you are really good to me."

She was so moved that if it weren't for Brother Zhu's help, she wouldn't know how she would live her life.

Old man Zhu suddenly had the feeling that he was the "god" of the other party. If he fell, the other party would be doomed. This feeling was something he could not feel at all from Ye Yuran.

Even though he didn't think about having anything to do with Widow Qin, this feeling still held him tightly, making his feet seem to be walking on their own, and he would walk this way involuntarily.

"It's okay. I'll just help as much as I can. After all, we all belong to the same village. And your man is also my brother." Old man Zhu didn't care if he said this, even though he and Widow Qin

The man in the house is a relative across the street, a bit far apart, but as long as he is from Zhujiacun, which family is not related by relatives?

It's just that they are too far apart, so everyone is too lazy to bother with it. When necessary, they will look through the family tree to confirm.

"No, Brother Zhu, not everyone is as good as you." Widow Qin looked pitiful. She said with emotion, "I have been raising two children by myself for so many years. You don't know how miserable I am.

If it weren't for these two children, I wouldn't be able to survive."

At this point, her eyes turned red and she cried about her hard work over the years.

It wasn't until she met Old Man Zhu that she felt like she had the aura of a living person, because only Old Man Zhu would not look at her through colored glasses and regard her as a human being.

How long has it been since she felt like this?

Old man Zhu felt soft in his heart after what she said.

When leaving Widow Qin's place, he still sighed: "How pitiful!"

It's a pity that he was not as lucky as his eldest brother, so he married the fierce old Qian Po.

At the same time, Old Man Zhu is also a little conflicted. In fact, the old Qianpo is not that bad, but her temper is too scary, and she is always ready to carry a knife. If she can reconcile with Widow Qin, and be as gentle and considerate as Widow Qin, then it will be even better

alright.

Sometimes, men are like this, eating from the bowl and looking at the pot.

It’s not that you are bad or outstanding, it’s just that there is something about you that is not as good as he wants, and he wants to make up for it from another person.

As soon as Old Man Zhu arrived at the door of his house, he met Ye Yuran standing in the yard: "What are you doing? Are you scary?"

"Where have you been? It took you so long to come back?" It's not that Ye Yuran is overthinking, but her intuition tells her that when a man starts to act alone and disappears all day long, there will be a problem.

Zhu Da and the others thought he was going to Zhu Laosan and Zhu Laosi's place, but just now Zhu Bamei ordered her to send something there, and they didn't hear anyone mentioning Old Man Zhu at all, that is to say - Old Man Zhu

I lied to the boss and the second child.

What is the reason that would make Old Man Zhu leave his two shadow-like sons and act alone?

"I'm wandering around thinking, what's wrong? I can't go out for a walk anymore?" Old Man Zhu said without feeling guilty at all, "During the Chinese New Year, there isn't much farm work to do. It's fine for me to stay at home, but I can't go out for a walk."

ah?"

"Okay, the boss said you went to your father and mother's place. I really thought you really went."

"We just went there," Old Man Zhu added, "and then turned to another place."

Ye Yuran: "Oh."

What does it mean if a man lies to you?

Zhu San is already preparing to go to town. Isn't it inappropriate for her to let Zhu San stare at Old Zhu at this time?

But besides Zhu San, who else is more suitable?

During dinner in the evening, Ye Yuran was thinking about this matter, tossing and turning a little, and couldn't sleep well.

Zhu Bamei was drowsily asleep and felt her mother turning over: "Mom, why aren't you asleep yet?"

I yawned, turned around, and fell asleep, as if talking in my sleep.

Ye Yuran: "..."

I have something on my mind and can't sleep.

The next day was the temple fair, and all the men, women, and children of the Zhu family got up very early.

Dabao and Erbao put on beautiful new clothes and held hands with their little ones. After they were packed, they were waiting for everyone in the yard.

After a while, the daughters-in-law of the Liu family, the Liu family, the Li family, and the Lin family dressed up, put on rouge and wore headdresses, and came out of their respective houses.

Their men were naturally taken care of by them.

Old Man Zhu was no exception. His daughter, Zhu Bamei, made new clothes for her biological father for the first time with the help of several sisters-in-law. Of course, Zhu Bamei did not know how to embroider, so the flowers on the clothes were embroidered by several sister-in-laws.

.

Although Mrs. Liu is a bit cautious, she is the most outstanding among her daughters-in-law as a female worker. This flower is also beautifully embroidered. However, compared with the ones sold in the town's cloth shop, it is a little inferior.

But for farmers, it is completely sufficient.

After everyone was ready, the family locked the door and left the yard.

Before arriving at the entrance of the village, I met many villagers. Like the Zhu family, they also dressed up and went to attend the temple fair.

"Uncle Zhu, Aunt Zhu, you also go to the temple fair."

"Yeah, let's go and have a look too."

"Then let's go together."

"OK."

There are already many people in the Zhu family, and with the addition of other people from the village, the team continues to expand, and they can pull out elders on the road.

The people at the foot of Taidang Mountain believe in Buddhism. Apart from the market, the most popular activity at the temple fair is "walking statues".

The so-called "walking statues" are to put the statues of gods and Buddhas on floats, and people will parade with them to look up and worship. At this time, there will be dancing and miscellaneous performances in front and back, which is quite lively.

When the Zhu family arrived, the "walking" had not yet begun, but many people had already gathered on both sides of the road.

Because the Lantern Festival is a particularly big event every year, the government also arranged patrols by government officials to ensure safety.

Ye Yuran took several daughters-in-law and first found a place to set up a stall. A long bench was covered with linen cloth, and jars of meat sauce, jam, and roasted seeds and nuts were set out. Next to it was a large wooden stand covered with bracelets.

What was different from the past was that this time Ye Yuran also asked them to bring a "long banner" with the words "Zhu Auntie Department Store" written on it.

It is woven with hemp thread, and the background color is the natural color of hemp thread. Only the big characters in the middle are woven with colored hemp thread, which looks full of ethnic flavor.

Although there are no such things in other stalls, there are long colorful flags erected everywhere at the temple fair, and there are dancers and performers in costumes, so it is not out of the ordinary.

Because Ms. Li always came to the market every time before, people recognized Ms. Li right after the stall was set up.

"You guys are here, I've been around for a while, I thought you weren't coming anymore." The old woman smiled and came over, asking what good things Li had prepared this time.

Li handed the Four Treasures to Zhu Si and introduced them eloquently.
