Chapter 387 Surprise
Zhou Lang and Wu Lang stood on both sides of the cow, holding their heads high and chests high, protecting the cow as they walked forward, while the cow rope was in Man Bao's hand.
Zhou Hu led his own cow and followed behind him, gently touching its back with one hand and feeling extremely happy.
The group of people turned into a small street. From a distance, Zhou Lang yelled at the front, "Second brother!"
Zhou Zuilang, who was bringing tofu to others, shook his hand and almost crushed the tofu. He looked up angrily, but was stunned when he saw the cow in Manbao's hand.
The tofu is broken.
Zhou Lang was still in a daze when he returned to the village, so it was Zhou Lang who pushed the cart. He held the cow rope tightly in his hand and protected the cow back with one foot and one foot.
As for Man Bao, she is currently sitting on the back of an ox like the patrolling king, happily looking down at a group of children running toward her in the village.
Chief among them is Ertou.
He was playing with his friends under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village. When he looked up, he saw a cow with a person on its back who looked very much like his sister-in-law.
Then he turned his eyes and saw his father walking beside the cow. When he looked at his fourth uncle pushing the cart next to him, he knew he was right.
The two heads jumped up and rushed over, shouting: "Dad, whose cow is this?"
Zhou Erlang showed a dreamy smile and said cheerfully: "It belongs to our family."
Although Er Tou had already guessed it, he still couldn't help but let out an "ouch" and pulled Zhou Erlang to say: "Dad, I also want to sit on the back of a bull, and I also want to ride a bull."
"Go, go, go," Zhou Erlang pushed his son aside and said, "You are so heavy, what if the cow is tired? Your sister-in-law is sitting on top."
There were many children rushing up, and they were immediately surrounded. The cow stamped its feet uneasily, and Zhou Erlang quickly reached out to comfort it and asked everyone to disperse.
But the news here quickly spread to the village, and even some adults came to watch the fun.
They were extremely surprised when they saw that both Zhou Lang and Zhou Hu were holding cows in their hands.
Everyone was even more surprised when they learned that the cattle were brought back from the county government on credit. Is there really someone who went to the county government to borrow cattle on credit?
The village entrance suddenly became lively.
When Lao Zhoutou found out and ran out with his shoes on, Zhou Erlang and the others were almost at the door of their house with great difficulty.
Lao Zhoutou rushed out and saw the cow rope in Zhou Lang's hand, and then took a look at the girl sitting on the cow's back. He became anxious, glared, and was about to fall down as soon as his feet went weak.
Zhou Dalang, who ran out after him, quickly supported his father with quick eyes and hands, and quickly had someone carry his head back home.
When Man Bao saw his father almost fainting with excitement, he stopped sitting on the back of the bull and moved his buttocks to slide down.
Zhou Erlang quickly picked her up and rushed up to look at his father with concern.
Lao Zhou fainted for a moment. As soon as Zhou Dalang helped him, he woke up, but at this time he was lazy and didn't want to talk or pay attention to anyone.
Man Bao pushed aside several brothers and sisters, squeezed to Lao Zhoutou's side, and held his hand with concern, "Dad, didn't I tell you, I want to give you a surprise, why are you so inconsiderate?"
I'm so happy that I fainted just by looking at it."
The villagers who were watching the excitement could not see the scene inside, but they heard Manbao's words. Someone laughed loudly: "Manbao, your father is not happy, but surprised. Is he to scare you? Hahahaha...
…”
Lao Zhoutou couldn't lie still anymore. He grabbed Zhou Dalang and Zhou Lang's hands and stood up. He cursed outside: "Fart, who said I was scared? I'm obviously, I'm obviously happy..."
Old Zhou almost cried when he said these words, but he still managed to smile with a sad face, "I, I am happy, my old Zhou family can actually afford to buy cattle..."
But my heart hurts so much, what should I do, especially if this is a cow bought on credit, so the interest...
When Lao Zhou thought about the interest, he immediately became energetic. He didn't know how much money this naughty girl had earned on credit.
So he waved his hand and said: "My cow has just come back. Don't get so close, so as not to scare it. It's spring, so everyone should do whatever they want. Da Lang, give one to your uncles and brothers."
Zhou Dalang immediately led several younger brothers forward to see him off.
The villagers smiled in understanding and walked away laughing.
Yesterday, Lao Zhoutou was bragging to them at the entrance of the village. Only a fool would lend cattle on credit at such a high interest rate.
I’ve never heard of someone asking for credit to buy such a large item. Doesn’t that mean the coffin needs to be loaded in advance?
But this time he turned around, his family got a cow back on credit in only one day. When he saw his reaction, he didn't know.
Everyone can guess that this matter was probably caused by their precious daughter.
The brothers Zhou Lang don’t have the guts yet.
Therefore, a goddaughter turmoil might break out in Lao Zhou's family. Although everyone wanted to watch the excitement, they couldn't force people to watch, so they had no choice but to leave.
As soon as everyone left the house, they went to Zhou Hu's house.
As you just saw, Zhou Hu also brought back a cow.
In Qili Village, apart from the Bai family, only the village chief's family has cattle, so cattle are quite rare, especially since the cattle are on credit with the county government.
Although everyone didn't want to take credit, everyone still wanted to hear Zhou Hu tell how they got the cow on credit.
As soon as the people who joined in the fun left and the door was closed, only the old Zhou family remained in the yard.
Old Zhou looked at his daughter and felt a little reluctant to do anything, so he turned to Mrs. Feng and said, "Go, go to the vegetable garden and call your mother back."
He had to let his old wife give her a full beating because his heart was so painful.
Manbao didn't realize what his father was thinking, so he nodded happily, "I want to tell mom."
Man Bao took out the wrapped household registration from the cloth bag and handed it to Lao Zhoutou, "Dad, please keep it."
Lao Zhoutou took it blankly and asked: "Why do you have this thing in your hand?"
"Dad, you forgot, you need to bring your household registration with you to get credit for the cattle."
Yes, the commander seemed to have said so yesterday.
Lao Zhou turned his small head and asked, "Where did you come from?"
"Mom brought it to me."
Lao Zhoutou let out an "ouch", and as soon as Qian opened the door and came in, he met his red eyes. With tears in his eyes, he said sadly and angrily: "Child, why don't you tell me?
Just let Manbao borrow cattle on credit?"
Qian frowned and said, "I didn't know Man Bao was going to buy cattle on credit."
"You don't know, you don't know how to give her your household registration?"
"Man Bao said she wanted it, so I gave it to her. She has always been sensible and would never do anything nonsense with it."
It's strange that Lao Zhoutou believed her. He didn't believe that his wife couldn't guess it. She just deliberately hid it from him!
Qian said: "Okay, what a big deal it is. It's a good thing to have a big addition to the family. I'll let Da Tou go to the market to cut a piece of meat and come back later, and we'll celebrate in the evening."
