Chapter 493 Encountering the Third Hand
The people who died due to heavy rain were buried in the village, the sick were cured, and the broken houses were repaired. In the blink of an eye, after the villagers in Shanshui Village finished their busy work, they discovered that the Chinese New Year was almost here.
Although every household is eating less and saving food this year due to the drought, they still need to prepare some things for the New Year. After all, the villagers regard the New Year as very important. As long as they have money, they cannot eat meat normally, but they must buy it for the New Year.
, even if it’s a little less. Even if you don’t have money to celebrate the New Year, you still have to borrow money to celebrate the New Year.
Naturally, the Zhou family will not have such troubles. The Zhou family has made a lot of money in the past few years, so there is no shortage of money for the New Year. Especially the thousand taels of silver from Situ Shu, and Zhou Ziya also handed it over to the Zhou family.
So during the Chinese New Year this year, Mr. Zhou generously gave a lot to prepare new year's goods.
Early in the morning, Zhou Ziya went to the market with her three brothers and her parents in a carriage. There were so many people crammed into one carriage that it was extremely crowded.
"Brother, look at it, you are too fat, making this carriage too crowded and uncomfortable."
Zhou Ziya was hugged by little Zhou, and she began to dislike her elder brother.
Zhou Zihu suddenly felt that he had been wronged and said with an aggrieved face, "Little sister, you are too partial. The second and third brothers are about the same as me. Why am I fat? Little sister, if you dislike it, I
Just go out and sit outside."
Zhou Ziya felt that she had gone a little too far, but she was too embarrassed to admit her mistake, so she could only say shamelessly, "Forget it, forget it."
The carriage was fast, and it didn't take long to reach the town. After the rain, the refugees had returned to their hometowns, and now the town has basically returned to its previous calm, but these are only superficial. It is obvious to those begging for food.
There are more than before. There will even be more orphans in the town.
Because they bought different things, the three brothers of the Zhou family took Zhou Ziya shopping. Because what they wanted to buy were some pens, inks, and papers, while Zhou Yanliang and his wife wanted to buy some New Year items. Zhou Ziya also wanted to buy some ancient travel notes or words.
When I went back, during the Chinese New Year, it was snowing and there was nothing to do, so I just bought it to pass the time. Anyway, now she can read, and she doesn't have to pretend to be illiterate like she did when she first traveled through time.
When he arrived at the study room, Zhou Zihu wanted to convince his sister not to dislike him because of what happened on the carriage, so he immediately said generously, "Little sister, you will see what kind of storybook you like later, and then my brother will help you buy it with his private money, okay?"
Anyone who refuses to pay someone is a fool. Zhou Ziya immediately nodded obediently, "Thank you, brother."
Zhou Zihu was very happy immediately. Zhou Zibao glanced at his eldest brother who looked down on him and smiled so stupidly. He really didn't want to admit that he had such an eldest brother. It was too embarrassing and a shame.
Just as she was about to enter the study room, Zhou Ziya was hit by someone. The hit made her arm hurt and she felt a little numb.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I'm sorry."
A little girl was so frightened that she lowered her head and kept saying sorry. She looked like she wanted to shrink to the ground.
Zhou Ziya was quite angry at first, but when she saw this, she sighed and could only blame herself for her bad luck, "Forget it, just pay attention in the future."
The little girl quickly said, "Thank you, miss, thank you, miss." Then she ran away as fast as she could, for fear of being chased by someone behind her.
