Chapter 576: On the first day of the new year, the sensible Zheng Juan has a party(2/3)
After hearing this, Zheng Juan opened her mouth to say that she shouldn't eat too much candy, but looking at her happy grandfather and grandson, she didn't say anything in the end.
When Zhou Zhigang smiled, several people at the table relaxed a little.
Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei looked at each other and immediately understood each other's thoughts. It seemed that in this family, only Zhou Rui, a little kid, could control their old father, and no one else could.
Zhou Zhigang was talking to Zhou Rui. He looked at the dining chair Zhou Rui was sitting on. It was very exquisite. He asked Li Suhua curiously.
"My dear, where did you buy this chair? It's really suitable for children."
Li Suhua pursed her lips towards Zhou Chen and said, "Well, it was your son who made it. You can't buy it outside. He made it with his own hands and feet."
Zhou Zhigang looked at Zhou Chen in surprise and asked proactively: "Bingkun, do you still know how to do carpentry?"
Zhou Zhigang doesn't have a sinister spirit, and Zhou Chen doesn't have any yin and yang aura.
"Well, actually it doesn't have any technical content. It's just made of some wood and screws."
Zhou Zhigang looked at it carefully again: "It's quite technical. Even ordinary carpenters can't produce such exquisite work. It seems that you have really grown a lot in the past few years when I have been away from home."
After Li Suhua's persuasion last night, he no longer had the same bad attitude as yesterday. After all, he is his own son and is celebrating the New Year. Is it possible that he will continue to be stiff?
But taking the initiative to speak is already his limit. It is absolutely impossible for him to apologize to Zhou Chen, because he never feels that he is at fault. At most, his attitude is a bit bad.
"If you don't have anyone at home, you have to learn something. Otherwise, if you encounter any problems, you will have to trouble outsiders."
Zhou Chen has never taken the initiative to learn carpentry, but he has done a lot of manual work. Over the past few lifetimes, he has taken care of many children, and he is also a former pediatrician. It is easy to build a child seat.
Zhou Bingyi said with a smile: "Dad, you don't know that Bingkun is much smarter than we thought. In our family, Zhou Rong and I combined are not as good as Bingkun."
He is not a jealous person. He used to think that his younger brother was ignorant, but in the past few days, he found that the younger brother who was ignorant at the time had already transformed and became better than him.
He felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but more than anything he was happy. They were all brothers. If they didn't really have any grudges or had dark minds, they definitely wished each other well.
Originally, he just wanted to speak for Zhou Chen, but he didn't know that his words made Zhou Zhigang feel a little uncomfortable.
Of the three children in the family, the one he values most is his eldest son Zhou Bingyi, the one he loves most is his daughter Zhou Rong, and the one he is least satisfied with is Zhou Bingkun.
As a result, Zhou Bingkun, who is now the most dissatisfied, has become the best-developed and most promising of the three children. He is happy in his heart, but he is still more awkward.
People's hearts are complicated, and parents cannot treat their children equally. This is the case with Zhou Zhigang.
Thoughts formed over so many years cannot be changed in a day or two.
"When will Xiaorong come back?"
Li Suhua said impatiently: "Didn't you ask yesterday? She said she would arrive home on the third day of the Lunar New Year and you would leave on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. It was too late."
Zhou Zhigang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. Bingyi and the others will leave on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. In this case, our family can finally be reunited this year."
Li Suhua also looked happy: "Yes, we are finally reunited. I have been looking forward to this day for a long time."
Speaking of this, Li Suhua suddenly asked curiously: "Xiao Rong's man is called Feng Huacheng. I heard that he is a great poet in the capital. How do his poems compare with our Kun'er?"
This question stumped Zhou Zhigang. How could he know anything about poetry?
Seeing that the two elders were looking at him, Zhou Bingyi replied awkwardly: "This question is really difficult to answer. It depends on people's opinions. Some people may like Bingkun's poems, but some people must not like them. The same goes for Feng Huacheng, so
There is no way to distinguish between high and low.”
Hao Dongmei suddenly said, "But in terms of circulation, Bingkun's poems should be more popular."
She hadn't read many of Feng Huacheng's poems, but she had read a lot of Zhou Chen's poems, many of which were absolutely exquisite. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to charm so many of their high-ranking officials' children.
Li Suhua beamed after hearing this. Her son-in-law is still her son-in-law after all, and she must like her son more.
Zhou Zhigang said at this time: "I have met Feng Huacheng. He is a gentle and gentle man. He is a talent."
Li Suhua didn't give him any face, and said dissatisfiedly: "I don't know whether he is a talented person or not. I only know that our Xiaorong almost disowned his parents because of him."
She couldn't bear to blame her daughter, but she didn't have a good impression of the son-in-law she had never met.
Even though his daughter was more than ten years old, he still asked her to endure hardships with him. He even gave birth to a child but never met her once. No mother would feel better if he left her alone.
Especially after living with Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan for a long time, her mentality has changed even more, and she is more biased towards her son and daughter-in-law.
Zhou Zhigang said impatiently: "You are an old woman, why do you care so much? Xiaorong just needs to live a happy life. Don't mess around."
Li Suhua mumbled, "I can't get involved even if I want to. Xiao Rong's character is exactly the same as yours. If you do something right, even eight cows can't get it back."
Zhou Zhigang was anxious: "Why, it's up to me to co-author this matter?"
"When did I say I depended on you?"
"That's what you just meant."
Good guys, they were very affectionate yesterday, but today they started arguing in front of the children, which stunned Zhou Bingyi and others.
Zhou Bingyi quickly advised: "Dad, Mom, what are you talking about? It's fine. Why are you arguing?"
Zhou Zhigang snorted: "I didn't argue with her, I was reasonable with her, but do you think she is reasonable?"
Li Suhua also said dissatisfied: "I'm not wrong, you were the one who told me first."
At this moment, the two old men were like children, refusing to let anyone go.
Zhou Bingyi couldn't help but smile: "Mom, stop talking, come and eat a piece of meat, Dad, I'll toast you."
The two old men really didn't want to quarrel, they were just talking in the mood. They were interrupted by Zhou Bingyi and immediately got over it.
Zhou Chen also participated in clinking glasses, and the father and son drank two bottles of wine.
After the meal, Zhou Bingyi drunkenly gave Zhou Chen a thumbs up: "Bingkun, your wine is good, it's more enjoyable than the wine in our corps."
Zhou Chen smiled and said nothing. This was the fine wine he had collected over the years. They were all aged, and of course they were pure enough.
After lunch, Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua took Zhou Rui out to play. Zhou Chen took Zheng Juan and Zheng Guangming to go shopping. Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei went to the place where they used to go to school to miss their youth.
In the evening, Li Suhua took advantage of Hao Dongmei to talk to Zheng Juan. She found Zhou Bingyi and talked to Zhou Bingyi about having a baby.
Zhou Bingyi originally wanted to tell the truth, but he would take the responsibility on himself, but he thought that if he told it, his parents would definitely feel uncomfortable. He finally spent the New Year happily this year, and he didn't want to disgrace his parents.
of interest.
So he said that due to work reasons, the two decided not to have children for the time being. This reason finally convinced Li Suhua.
Although Li Suhua felt disappointed, she also respected her son's choice. Her son and daughter-in-law did not want to have children for the time being, and she could not force them.
In the blink of an eye, it was the third day of the Lunar New Year. Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan packed up early and brought a lot of new things.
Before leaving, Zhou Chen said to Li Suhua: "Mom, we won't be back for lunch at noon, so Ruirui will be left to you."
Li Suhua waved her hand casually and said: "Go ahead, New Year's Eve. It's hard for you guys to get together and have fun. Don't come back in a hurry. Leave Ruirui to us."
Zheng Juan said softly: "Mom, I'm sorry to bother you."
Li Suhua immediately scolded: "You kid, what are you talking about? Ruirui is your son, and he is also my eldest grandson. Look at how happy he is playing with his grandfather. You don't have to worry about him."
Then Zhou Chen said goodbye to his father and brother, and drove Zheng Juan away from home on his bicycle.
After Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan left, Zhou Zhi just said dissatisfiedly: "This Xiaorong is coming back today, and he has to go out. Friends are more important than sisters?"
"Okay, you."
Li Suhua interrupted Zhou Zhigang's chat and said, "You didn't say anything just now, but now that he's gone, what's the point of saying it?"
Zhou Zhigang muttered a few words, and then asked: "Can Xiaorong arrive today?"
"I don't know. I haven't received a letter from her, and I don't know where she is. I'm so worried."
Her daughter said she would be home today, so Li Suhua started preparations early, but it was almost noon and there was no news yet, so why not be anxious?
Zhou Bingyi comforted him: "Maybe I was delayed by something on the way. Dad, Mom, don't worry too much. Zhou Rong is such an adult. She dared to go to Guizhou alone back then. This time, Feng Huacheng is accompanying her."
, nothing will happen."
He was also troubled by this careless sister. His parents had been talking about her these past few days, and his ears were almost ringing with noise.
Hao Dongmei also advised: "Yes, Mom, Dad, don't worry, it's fine."
Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan quickly returned to the Guangzi Film. After entering the Guangzi Film, they met many acquaintances, all of whom greeted Zhou Chen enthusiastically.
"Hey, Bingkun, you're back."
"Well, I'm back."
"Bingkun, I heard that your father came back to celebrate the New Year, why didn't he return the photo?"
"My dad has just come back. He has been very tired these past few days. When I go back, I will tell my dad that you miss him and ask him to come back and have a drink with you."
