Chapter 19
Zhou Mei looked at Zhou Tang, who kept wriggling her small mouth, and nodded, "Don't get used to it. In this day and age, it's better to be an official. Common people can only be bullied."

After living two lifetimes, I made her understand that if she was rich in her previous life, the president would be able to call you a brother and brother. If she is rich now, a small official can ruin your family. She is a woman and cannot be an official, so she can only count on this younger brother. , but at least it will take nearly 20 years, and she will be in the third year by then.

Even if it wasn't for her, at least she hoped that Zhou Tang could live a good life for her own sake.

"Yes!" Mrs. Zhao sighed, as if deeply touched.

Zhou Mei's eyes darkened, and then she asked: "When we have money in the future, what kind of store does mother want to open?"

"Mother has never opened a shop, how would she know, what does Meier think?"

Mrs. Zhao is a standard ancient woman, who practiced not talking when eating or sleeping, never smiling, speaking softly, never stepping out of the door, opening a shop, how can she be the daughter of a talented family like her will do.

Zhou Mei thought about it, and felt that what she asked was indeed a question, then she shook her head, then stood on the kang, and helped Zhou Tang, who was playing with her with her fingers, to get up and learn to walk.

Zhou Tang was even happier now. With his calves stretched, with the support of his sister, he walked back and forth on the kang step by step.

"In the future, I will be the head of the family. I look at my father as an honest person, and I don't have much experience in doing business."

Mrs. Zhao was folding diapers that had been dried in the sun and baked on the kang, when she heard this sentence, her hands stopped suddenly.

Then he looked up at Zhou Mei, and asked suspiciously, "Can you do business?"

Zhou Mei didn't refute: "Yes, at least better than Dad."

To do business with outsiders, in addition to being patient, one must also have arrogance. The mannerisms of the previous life have been embedded in his bones. Even if he is only a seven-year-old child now, the aura that has been soaked in for several years cannot be dissipated.

Zhou Mei nodded bluntly, but Zhao Shi felt suspicious in her heart. Her daughter was only seven years old and didn't usually go out. Now she actually said that she could do business, how could she believe it.

Besides, this is where a girl can be.

"Mother, don't worry, when my younger brother grows up, the Zhou family will still belong to him."

Mrs. Zhao frowned immediately when she heard the words, glared at her daughter reproachfully, and said, "Mei'er, don't talk nonsense, you and Tang'er are both meat that fell from your mother's body, regardless of the severity, how could mother think that way, it's just outside Most businessmen are cunning, you are a child, mother is worried after all."

After all, Mrs. Zhao still didn't believe that she would do business.

"Didn't there be a father? When we open a restaurant in Fucheng, I will cook the meals myself, and my mother will take care of the accounts. Life will go on." Zhou Mei said softly.

Letting go of his hand, Zhou Tang moved tremblingly for two steps, and finally sat down crookedly, turned his head to look at Zhou Mei, opened his mouth and was about to cry, when he realized that he was picked up again, and then he stopped.

"Then let's buy more land and Zhuangzi, preferably very large. If someone asks who owns this land, they will say that it belongs to Mr. Zhou, and then walk for three days and three nights, asking about the land under our feet. Whose it belongs to, they still answer that it belongs to Master Zhou, does mother think it is good?"

After hearing this sentence, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help it immediately, covered her lips and smiled happily, then cast a coquettish look at her daughter, and said softly: "You girl, where did you learn these words."

Even if this is the case, how big is that land.

"I was thinking about it when I was sleeping at night, and there were still a lot of things in my mind. I always wondered if it was something I had done in my previous life. I thought about it a lot, and I knew it naturally. Even if I have died once in the past few days, it has reached that point, and I still don’t understand it. Is it possible to watch my mother’s body gradually deteriorating? Dad is honest, and there must always be a dishonest person in our family.”

"Yes, yes, what you said makes sense. Not to mention, things in this past life and present life are uncertain. Sometimes when my mother is doing something, she always feels very familiar. It happened, but there was no clue."

"That's right, I feel the same way sometimes."

Zhou Tang was finally tired from walking and refused to move a step. Finally, after Zhou Mei put her down, the little guy rolled over on the mattress twice, then leaned against Mrs. Zhao, and fell asleep.

Seeing that the time was already half past, Zhou Mei put on her shoes and got off the kang, and said to Mrs. Zhao, "Mother, where did dad go?"

"Your father went to Lao Zhou's house. It seems that he went to help the old man with his work. He should be back at noon." Mrs. Zhao said softly, with a hint of disappointment in her tone.

Zhou Mei nodded, then opened the curtain and went out: "Then I'll start cooking. Let's have three dishes and one soup. Mother will eat more at noon, and we will work again in the afternoon."

"Well, Mei'er..." Mrs. Zhao called her, and after a while she sighed, "In the closet over there, there is a small black box, take it here."

Zhou Mei was puzzled, but she turned around and walked to the big mahogany box in the corner of the room. After opening it, there was a small wooden box in the corner. The eight corners of the wooden box were almost rounded, making it look very old.

Walked over and handed it to Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao took out a key from under the pillow. After opening it, there was a small silver ingot inside. She put it in Zhou Mei's palm and said with a smile, "This is the only tael of silver in our family." , you take it, you will be in charge in the future. Don't worry, I will tell your father."

After finishing speaking, he smiled at her and said, "Your father spent three copper coins to make this box in the town."

Zhou Mei suddenly raised her head and looked at Mrs. Zhao, and it took a while to smile with her beautiful lips: "Mother, don't worry, I'm only seven years old."

"Don't worry, you are mother's daughter. I used to think you resemble your father, but now mother thinks that you are most like your uncle. It's a pity..."

Zhou Mei put the silver in the wooden box, locked it again, and put it in the suitcase. Seeing Zhao's puzzled eyes, she smiled and said, "Let's put it here with your mother first, and our family will definitely get better and better in the future." , this tael of money can't help my mother to treat her illness, and can't let my younger brother study, and it's useless to put it on me. After the Chinese New Year, it will be used as money."

"Mother sit down first, I will cook."

In the kitchen, when she was busy with work, she suddenly stopped, always feeling that she had made a mistake, but finally shook her head, feeling incomprehensible for the thoughts that popped up in her mind.

Clean the pot neatly, turn on the stove, and start preparing to cook.

The chicken is already cooked, and now you only need to stir fry it, but there are potatoes, which need to be stewed for a longer time, and the rest of the dishes are relatively much easier.

Heat the oil and sauté chopped green onion, then put the chopped potatoes and chicken into it and stir fry for a while, then put in salt and add water, after covering the pot, don’t worry about it.
