He could have taken the money and run away. Why did he come back so stupidly?
Family Zhang Xing's heart bled at the thought of the two hundred thousand yuan that was taken away.
If he had thought of running away with the money earlier, he would have taken his wife and child out to live a carefree life.
Now, not only was his money gone, but his reputation was also gone.
Who would be willing to be friends with a person who even cheated his own brother to pay for his life?
Family Zhang Xing really hated Jiujiu.
However, Zhang Jiaxing and his wife came up with another idea after some discussion.
Didn't Jiujiu's parents die? Only she and Zhang Dashuan were left at home.
Although Zhang Dashuan looked fine now, he was in his sixties after all. He was old and weak. Who knew when he would stretch out his legs and close his eyes? Therefore, it was better for Zhang Jiujiu to find a guardian as soon as possible.
But looking around, who was more suitable than the two of them to be Jiujiu's guardians?
Zhang Jiaxing and his wife came up with a plan. Even if they couldn't get the two hundred thousand yuan, once they became Zhang Jiujiu's guardians, they would wait for Zhang Jiujiu to be slightly chained and sweet talk her for a while. She would definitely obediently take out the money.
Although this method was a little slow, it was fine as long as they could get the money.
The couple thought about it and prepared to take action.
Because Family Zhang Xing had done bad things before, the two of them wanted to gain Jiujiu's trust. They had to make Zhang Dashuan and Jiujiu realize that he really recognized his mistakes.
When Jiujiu came back for the second time, Family Zhang Xing took his rooster and a pig leg to Jiujiu's house early in the morning to apologize.
In fact, Family Zhang Xing was black-hearted and took the money. Anyone in the village would probably do the same.
After all, reputation was nothing compared to so much money.
But the problem was that Family Zhang Xing did not get any money this time, and his reputation was completely ruined. This was more embarrassing.
Family Zhang Xing also realized this. Before Jiujiu came back, he didn't go out. When Jiujiu came back, he went to confess the next day.
Jiujiu and Zhang Dashuan had just finished their breakfast. Jiujiu was washing clothes in the yard when she heard a knock on the door.
Jiujiu wiped her hands on her clothes and asked as she walked, "Who is it?"
Family Zhang Xing did not dare to make a sound.
He was afraid that if he made a sound, Jiujiu would not open the door.
After all, Jiujiu was not the weak little girl who would cry whenever something happened.
From the day Jiujiu threw money at him and went to find the mayor, he could see that his niece was very powerful.
Jiujiu opened the door and saw Family Zhang Xing standing at the door. She closed the door without thinking.
Family Zhang Xing saw this and quickly blocked it with his foot. He smiled at Jiujiu shamelessly. "Jiu, uncle is here to apologize today."
Jiujiu looked at Family Zhang Xing.
Zhang Jiaxing immediately took out the big rooster and the pig's hind leg in his hands.
Seeing the big rooster in Family Zhang Xing's hands, Jiujiu's eyes lit up. She turned her head and let Family Zhang Xing in.
Although Zhang Dashuan was relieved that he was about to get the money, Zhang Jiaxing's previous actions had made Zhang Dashuan unbearable. A few days ago, the weather had turned cold, and Zhang Dashuan did not have time to put on more clothes. These few days, he had been coughing.
Jiujiu had just checked Zhang Dashuan's pulse. There was nothing serious. He would be fine after taking some medicine and eating something good.
Jiujiu was planning to buy a chicken from the village chief when Family Zhang Xing brought it over.
Moreover, in order to please her, Zhang Jiaxing had made this rooster quite big.
When Zhang Jiaxing saw that Jiujiu had allowed him to enter the house, he instantly beamed with joy. He hurriedly placed the rooster and the pig's hind legs in the house. After that, he went up to Zhang Dashuan and shouted, "Dad, I'm here."
Zhang Dashuan still remembered Family Zhang Xing's arrogant look when he threw 20,000 yuan at him.
Therefore, Zhang Dashuan snorted and ignored Family Zhang Xing's greeting.
Family Zhang Xing was not angry at being ignored by Zhang Dashuan. He still smiled and said to Jiujiu, "Jiujiu, what else is there to do at home? Let Uncle do it."
Jiujiu glanced at Family Zhang Xing. She rolled her eyes and knew what Family Zhang Xing was planning.
However, it would be a waste not to take free labor. Jiujiu said directly, "We don't have any firewood at home."
The firewood in the village was chopped from the mountains.
Family Zhang Xing was lazy, so his wife chopped the firewood at home.
But now, in order to please Jiujiu, Family Zhang Xing braced himself and nodded. He carried a basket and went to the mountains to chop firewood.
Family Zhang Xing went to chop firewood, and Jiujiu went to kill the chicken.
Zhang Dashuan was old, and he had lost a lot of nutrients. He needed to make up for it.
Jiujiu cut the big rooster, which was still struggling just now, in an instant, stopped breathing.
Jiujiu collected the blood of the big rooster into a bowl. She began to pluck the feathers and cut the meat.
The bones were used to make soup. As for the meat, different parts were used to make different dishes.
Although there was only one chicken, Jiujiu used her skills to make a whole chicken feast.
People in the mountains loved to eat meat, not to mention that the chicken Jiujiu had cooked was so fragrant that Zhang Dashuan ate more than half of it by himself.
After Zhang Dashuan finished eating, Jiujiu gave him a bowl of chicken soup to drink. She cleaned up the rest of the dishes and prepared to heat them up for dinner.
After Jiujiu cleaned up the kitchen, Family Zhang Xing came in with a basket of firewood.
In order to please Jiujiu and Zhang Dashuan, Family Zhang Xing went up the mountain to chop a basket of firewood. He stacked the firewood neatly and put it under the eaves.
Family Zhang Xing came to Jiujiu's house early in the morning. After he put the basket down, he went up the mountain to chop firewood. He had been hungry for a long time. After he put the firewood down, he thought that since he had performed so well, he should be given a meal.
In the end, Zhang Dashuan was calmly picking his teeth with a toothpick, while Jiujiu was sitting at the table doing her homework. The two of them acted as if they didn't see him.
Family Zhang Xing's face instantly darkened.
Zhang Jiaxing rubbed his hands, thinking that he had brought so many things over and had been busy the whole day. Even if he didn't get any credit, he should at least be given a meal.
Family Zhang Xing looked at Jiujiu, who was engrossed in her homework, and said, "Jiu, is there any food left in our house?"
As soon as he entered the yard, he smelled the overbearing smell. He knew that Jiujiu had stewed the big rooster he brought over.
That rooster weighed at least four or five kilograms. The two of them definitely couldn't finish it. There must be some leftovers.
Family Zhang Xing thought that Jiujiu would definitely give it to him after he asked. However, he clearly underestimated Jiujiu's ruthlessness.
Jiujiu looked up and said, "There's no more. My grandfather and I finished eating."
Zhang Jiaxing's eyes widened. "Such a big chicken, and the two of you finished it?"
Family Zhang Xing didn't believe Jiujiu's words. Even his whole family couldn't finish such a big chicken. How could Jiujiu and Zhang Dashuan finish it? It was obviously nonsense.
