My wife is super prosperous

Chapter 56
55
On the second day after Shi Zining rented the small courtyard, it was still drizzling, and Shi Sanyong was still unable to pay for the stall. Shi Sanyong helped Shi Zining deliver the one hundred catties of meat sauce that had been prepared to "Fuxi Restaurant".

Hong Shunliu and the two of them had lunch at the restaurant, but Shi Zining declined politely: "Master Hong, we still have something to do, so come over to find Master Hong for a drink some other day."

Hong Shun didn't force it, and asked Xiao Er to pack a roast chicken for Shi Zining to take back.

After leaving the restaurant, Shi Zining asked Shi Sanyong to go back to Nan'an Lane first, and went to the grocery store alone, and came out of the grocery store after half an hour.

As soon as Shi Zining walked out of the grocery store holding an umbrella, he saw Liu Biao standing in the middle of the street, looking straight at him, his hair and clothes already wet from the rain.

Shi Zining stepped forward, stood a meter away from him, and asked uncertainly, "Are you waiting for me?"

"Yes!" Liu Biao replied firmly.

Shi Zining frowned, and continued to walk forward: "Follow me."

Shi Zining walked a few steps, turned around and passed the umbrella to Liu Biao.

Liu Biao did not refuse, took the umbrella, took a few steps forward, and moved the umbrella over Shi Zining's head.

A look of surprise flashed in Shi Zining's eyes, and he immediately raised the corners of his lips.

Shi Zining took Liu Biao back to Nan'an Lane, but Shi Sanyong was not in the yard, so he took half of the roast chicken to share with Uncle Wang, and left the other half on the table for Shi Zining.

Shi Zining went into the kitchen and took out the half jar of wine left over from yesterday's drink, poured it in a bowl, then tore off the chicken leg and handed it to Liu Biao.

"I didn't come to drink with you!" Liu Biao said sullenly.

"I know, you can talk while you have something to drink." Shi Zining stuffed the chicken leg into his hand, tore off a piece of roast chicken and took a bite, picked up the wine and put it in his mouth, but he didn't take his eyes off Liu Biao. He got up and was seriously waiting for Liu Biao to say something serious.

Liu Biao looked at Shi Zining sullenly for a while, then took a bite of the chicken leg, and then picked up the wine and drank the whole bowl of wine in one go.

"My mother-in-law ran away with the child!"

Liu Biao suddenly said this, Shi Zining almost choked on the chicken, hurriedly put the unfinished roast chicken back on the table, and looked straight at the man sitting opposite.

"She said that I don't care about my family, and it's too hard to live with me." Liu Biao gnawed a mouthful of the chicken leg again, as if to vent.

Shi Zining pursed his lips and said, "To be honest, I quite understand your wife."

Seeing Liu Biao glaring over, Shi Zining hooked his lips: "I heard that you have raised quite a few half-grown children, but I can also estimate how many stalls there are in this city, even if each stall is paid to you every day. How much can you save for the custody fee of two cents? This is not a day when it is windy and rainy, and the vendors do not support their stalls. If my guess is correct, you must seldom take money from home on weekdays, right? "

Liu Biao did not speak, expressing his acquiescence.

He did not take much money home on weekdays, because he had to support himself and the half-grown children, so he could only squeeze out some money to buy some meat and send them back during the New Year and holidays. The expenses of the children and the whole family were usually paid by himself. The daughter-in-law tried to make money, such as selling some food and mending clothes for others.

"Liu Biao, why do you want to raise those half-grown children?" Shi Zining asked again: "They have hands, feet, and strength. If you really want to help them, why don't you let them do some serious work to support themselves? ?”

"Do serious work to support yourself?" Liu Biao sneered suddenly: "It's easy to say, how many bosses or rich families in the county are willing to give them a chance to do serious work?"

He had forgotten how those half-grown children would follow him one after another, but they were willing to follow him, and it was not easy for him to drive them away.
