Don't tell me, He Chunhua's brainwashing is indeed effective.

The little carrots at home respected her as my little aunt more and more.

Knowing that Liu Lifen's cooking skills were not good and Shen Zhian was being invited to dinner today, He Chunhua planned to cook in person.

Liu Lifen was in charge of taking care of the meal and was busy with dinner.

A pheasant was braised in braised potatoes and lettuce.

There isn't a lot of pheasant meat, but these vegetables are stewed together and absorb the broth, so the taste is still very good.

In addition, He Chunhua cooked a plate of pickled fish, which was made according to Zhou Ran's recipe. The taste was similar to what her daughter cooked.

The wild eggs I picked up were fried with spring flowers and wild onions.

Then there are a few plates of vegetarian dishes and a plate of pickles.

The staple food is steamed multigrain rice.

When the meal was about to be ready, He Chunhua shouted to Zhou Qingzhi and asked Zhou Qingzhi to go over to the educated youth spot and call Shen Zhian to come over for dinner.

Zhou Qingzhi responded and went to the educated youth point.

Before I even reached the place, I saw Shen Zhian walking this way.

It just so happened that Zhou Qingzhi and Shen Zhian went back together.

When the two of them arrived at Zhou's house, the food had already been prepared.

There is a large table of dishes, which may not be so abundant even during the Chinese New Year.

As soon as Shen Zhian came over, He Chunhua greeted Shen Zhian warmly.

"Shen Zhiqing, you are here, sit down quickly, the food is ready, let's eat quickly."

Shen Zhian sat down to eat.

As for Zhou Ran, he was helped out by the Zhou family and served on the table.

Zhou Qingzhi was originally sitting next to Shen Zhian, but he was kicked by He Chunhua.

"Get up."

Zhou Qingzhi looked at He Chunhua in confusion, "Mom, what am I doing when I get up?"

Doesn't he deserve to sit down and eat?

He Chunhua said, "Your little sister is sitting here, please give way."

This brat really has no eyesight.

Don't you know if you should sit farther away so that Zhou Ran and Shen Zhian can sit down and cultivate their relationship?

After Zhou Qingzhi realized what He Chunhua was thinking, he immediately got up.

I'm afraid, but I can't disturb my younger sister and younger brother-in-law.

Zhou Ran: "..."

Zhou Ran also understood what kind of Xiao Jiujiu was in He Chunhua's heart, and he suddenly felt helpless.

She said she didn't like Shen Zhian, but obviously her mother didn't believe it.

When Zhou Ran sat down next to Shen Zhian, the corners of Shen Zhian's lips raised slightly.

After waiting for the meal to start, He Chunhua kept picking up vegetables for Shen Zhian to eat, looking as enthusiastic as possible.

Shen Zhian was quite embarrassed to be treated like this by He Chunhua.

But the strange thing is that I still like this feeling in my heart.

After the decline of the Shen family, outsiders were eager to step on them, but no one had ever done this to him.

Zhou Ran's brothers were a little jealous.

None of his mother's biological sons have ever been like this.

The warm look on her face towards Shen Zhian made it seem like Shen Zhian was her biological child and they had both picked her up.

Wow, that's so sad.

He Chunhua treated Shen Zhi'an like this because she regarded him as her future son-in-law, and she only loved him.

Those brats at home were naturally no match for her daughter.

Shen Zhian was very satisfied with this meal.

After eating, Shen Zhian did not go back to the educated youth spot immediately, but went to Zhou Shusheng's house next door first.

I have to go to the county town tomorrow. Shen Zhian can't go to work, so he has to ask for leave from the brigade leader.

Without the permission of the brigade leader, he would not be able to go to the county seat.

However, Shen Zhian felt that the captain would probably not agree to his request for leave.

I have already taken one day off today, and taking another day off tomorrow is obviously unjustifiable.

Fortunately, the ginseng won't go bad for a while, so it can be dried and sold.

I really can’t take a leave, so I’ll sell it when I have the chance to go to the county next time.

But what surprised Shen Zhian was that after Shen Zhian came to ask for leave, Zhou Shusheng readily agreed.

If Zhou Shusheng could agree so easily, there must be a reason.

He Chunhua came to greet him today and asked him to look after Shen Zhian more in the future. In the future, Shen Zhian might be the son-in-law of their Zhou family.

Zhou Shusheng guessed that Zhou Ran was probably attracted to Shen Zhian.

Zhou Shusheng is quite satisfied with Shen Zhian.

This young man is much more capable than other educated youths, and he is not as disgusted with Zhou Ran as others.

If Shen Zhian and Zhou Ran could be together, it would be a good choice.

Since he is his future niece-in-law, he, as an uncle, must take more care of him.

If someone asks for leave continuously, he will definitely not approve it, but can the same be true for his future niece and son-in-law?

Shen Zhian did not expect it to go so smoothly.

After coming out of the brigade captain's house, Shen Zhian was still in a daze.

He didn't know if it was an illusion just now, but he felt that the captain's attitude towards him was much more kind than before.

After successfully applying for leave, Shen Zhian went to the county seat early the next day.

There is no tractor going to the county town today, so we can only walk there.

As for Zhou Ran, because he sprained his ankle, he couldn't go anywhere else and could only lie down and rest at home.

Shen Zhian was lucky. He met an ox cart on the road and took him for a ride.

The journey that usually takes one hour by tractor took him more than two hours to get there.

Fortunately, the departure time was early, so it was only after eight o'clock when we arrived at the county seat.

Shen Zhian did not sell the ginseng to the hospital, knowing that the official price would not be too high.

If you want to sell it for more money, you can only rely on private transactions.

Instead of going to the black market, he went to Hu Yong's house first.

This person is involved in the black market, so he must have a better place to take action.

Shen Zhian found it according to the address Hu Yong gave him.

When he passed by, Hu Yong was just getting ready to go out.

It can be said that it came in time, otherwise we wouldn't have hit it.

Hu Yong was very happy to see Shen Zhian.

"Little brother, you are here."

Shen Zhian nodded.

"Come on, let's talk inside first."

Hu Yong said and welcomed Shen Zhian into the door.

Shen Zhian told the purpose of coming here.

He is very interested in the black market business. If there is a chance in the future, he can go to the black market several times a month and earn some money.

Given the current situation of the Shen family, Shen Zhian is eager to earn more, so as to improve their conditions.

It's not that Shen Zhian never considered this business when he was in Beijing. He even had connections in Beijing.

But he didn't dare to do it in Beijing. His family was there. If anything went wrong, the whole family might be directly affected.

Now that I am alone, I am not afraid of being implicated, so I can just go ahead and do it.

Hu Yong readily agreed to introduce Shen Zhian to the business.

The most important thing in their business is the supply of goods. If there are goods, they can sell them and make money.

Hu Yong took Shen Zhian to see a dealer in the county town. All the black market people here get goods from this person, but he is not the boss, there are people above him.

It is difficult to join this industry without an introduction from an acquaintance.
