Chapter 541 542: Disgusting guy In the afternoon, Zhou Huaian rode his bike back to Funiu, entered the yard, put his bike away, walked to the main room, and thinking about how the wind had covered his face with dust along the way, he hurried out to wash his face, patted the dust off his body, and then went to see his wife and son.

When I entered the room, I saw Yang Chunyan lying on her side, with little Jiuer wrapped in a blanket beside her. "Yan'er, I'm back. Is Jiuer being good? Did he bother you?"

Yang Chunyan looked at him with a smile, "He went to sleep after eating. When mom washed his butt, he stretched comfortably!" Then she asked, "Did mom say when they would come to take care of him?"

"Mom consulted a fortune teller, who said tomorrow is a good date. If we wait any longer, we'll have to wait until after Qingming Festival. After Qingming Festival, Yi Ding will hold a wedding banquet, and they said we'll have it tomorrow!"

Zhou Huaian came forward to look at his son who was sleeping soundly, then pulled a stool and sat down, "My sister-in-law said that everything has been prepared a long time ago, and she was just waiting for me to announce the good news."

Yang Chunyan didn't expect them to come so soon. Thinking that Xiao Jiuer hadn't been named yet, she said, "Go find mom and ask her to ask a fortune teller to read Xiao Jiuer's horoscope and see what's missing from his destiny. Then we can give him a name."

"I'll go right away!" Before Zhou Huaian left, she thought of Li Qiuyue again.

"Huaian, Mom said... If it were in the past, I would have told her directly and let Third Sister-in-law hide in our house on North Street for a few months. But thinking of Third Sister-in-law's stubborn personality, I felt that if we let her live in the house for a few months for free, we might not get a single good word from her, and we would have to listen to a lot of sour words."

"It's not possible, it's definitely a lot of sour words." Zhou Huaian pouted with disdain, "She is the most petty among the three sisters-in-law. If it weren't for my third brother, I wouldn't bother to meddle in her affairs."

He paused for a moment and said, "You should have a good rest. I will tell mom that we can rent a house in the county town, and then we can rent our yard to them."

"Yeah!" Yang Chunyan then lay down.

Zhou Huaian found Zhou's mother in the backyard and told her about renting a house. He then said, "The last time I delivered goods to Ning'an, I heard from Brother Huang that his colleague was transferred to work in the flower market and planned to rent out the yard where he lived. I will go to the city to ask the day after tomorrow."

"That's a good idea!" Zhou's mother thought of something else after saying that. "Qiuyue has been gone for several months. What should I say if someone asks about it?"

Zhou Huaian thought for a moment, "Why don't you ask her if she has any distant relatives? Then you can find a reason and ask Secretary Xu to help you get a letter of introduction, pretending to be visiting relatives!"

"Okay! I'll go read Xiao Jiu'er's fortune first, and then I'll tell your third sister-in-law when I come back!" Mother Zhou took off her apron and straightened her clothes. "I'll warm the chicken soup in the stove. In an hour or so, you can send a bowl to Chunyan and skim off the oil on it."

"Remember." Zhou Huaian looked around, "Where are grandpa and the old man?"

Mother Zhou turned around and said, "I'm going back to the old house to plant vegetable seedlings and dig green onions."

She planted several more varieties of vegetables this year than last year, including tomatoes, leeks, onions, etc. She also asked Qian Chunhua and a few other friendly families to plant some as well.
