Zhou Zhigang didn't say much, he just waved his hand, and then took the lead into the optical film.
As soon as they entered the Guangzi Pian area, someone recognized the Zhou family and their group.
"Oh, isn't this Zhou Zhigang, brother Zhou? You guys are back for the New Year this year?"
When Zhou Zhigang saw an acquaintance, he also laughed happily: "It's you, Wang Laosan, we haven't seen each other for several years, you have aged a lot."
"That is, the last time we met was a few years ago. It has been several years. Brother Zhou, how about the Chinese New Year."
"Happy New Year, happy New Year."
"These are your children and grandchildren. After so many years, I can only recognize one, Bingkun. You are Zhou Bingkun."
"Haha, your eyes are so good. This is indeed the naughty one in my family."
"Where are you? Brother Zhou, look at what you said. Bingkun is the pride of our phototype. He is a college student. He must have graduated. Where do you work?"
"Graduated, graduated. This guy studied medicine. He is now assigned to the First Affiliated Hospital of Yanjing Medical College. What is his position? Yes, yes, he is an attending physician."
"Oh, hey, the doctor at Yanjing Hospital is really amazing. Brother Zhou, congratulations to you. Bingkun is so promising. If that brat of mine was half as successful as Bingkun, I would laugh out loud in my dreams.
"
"Where, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."
Zhou Zhigang was talking to Wang Laosan. In fact, he was quite surprised. He thought that when he met acquaintances when he came to Guangzi Film, the eldest son and daughter would be the first to be praised. After all, in those days, Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong's
His reputation is much better than that of Zhou Bingkun.
Along the way, I greeted everyone I met and wished them New Year. Most of them were polite, but there were also some neighbors with whom I had a good relationship who took out red envelopes after seeing the three children.
Zhou Zhigang was a person who wanted to meet others. When others gave him red envelopes, he would reciprocate them as a courtesy and handed out the red envelopes he had prepared long ago.
Listening to familiar neighbors praising his children, the smile on Zhou Zhigang's face never stopped. He smiled more today than he had in several years.
As they walked, they came to the house of Lao Zhou's family. Xiao Guoqing, who was cleaning the yard, shouted excitedly when he saw someone from Lao Zhou's family coming.
"Uncle, aunt, Kun'er, brother Bingyi, why are you here?"
His greeting immediately alerted Wu Qian and others in the room, and many people walked out of the room, including Xiao Guoqing's parents.
Xiao Guoqing's parents are older than Zhou Zhigang and his wife, and they started to greet each other after meeting, with all kinds of compliments and words of gratitude coming out casually.
He praised the three children of the Zhou family for being admitted to college, and also expressed his gratitude to Zhou Chen, saying that if Zhou Chen had not lent his house to their family for the National Day, their family would not be able to survive, etc.
Zhou Zhigang enjoyed the praise and flattery very much, and even went inside to look at his house. He was relieved to see that the house was well organized.
This was his house, and it was so well organized and protected that he no longer minded renting it out.
After leaving here, I went to someone else's house. Finally, after walking, I came to Lao Qiao's house.
Because Li Suhua and Chunyan's mother are old sisters and have a very good relationship, the two families are relatively close. They did not go to other people's houses to sit there, but when they came to Qiao's house, they went to Qiao's house to rest.
In the room, Father Qiao was saying this to Zhou Zhigang, while the others were eating melon seeds and chatting.
Father Qiao gave a thumbs up and praised repeatedly: "Zhigang, our family has three children, but the three children of my family, compared with the three children of your family, that is heaven and earth, your three children
They have all been admitted to universities in the capital, and they are all famous universities. The three in my family, well, let’s not mention them.”
"Zhigang, it's you again. You have a good way to teach your children. You have a good way to teach your children."
Zhou Zhigang laughed and said, "What's the matter? My mother and I don't understand anything. It's all the children's own struggle."
"Oh, it's different. Zhigang, your children are promising. Why don't the three of us have this ability?"
Father Qiao had a look of regret on his face. This was true. Not only him, but also all the old people in the Guangzi film, how many of them didn't envy Zhou Zhigang?
Chunyan's mother was a little dissatisfied with her husband's belittling of her daughter, and said in a joking tone: "Hey, our Chunyan is now the deputy director of the District Women's Federation, so it's not that bad."
Qiao Chunyan stared blankly at the side. She was proud to be the deputy director, but as her horizons broadened, she knew that there was still a big gap between her, the deputy director, and the three famous college students from the Zhou family.
Father Qiao: "Come on, come on, let's not talk about these things that we already know. What are we trying to show off?"
Zhou Zhigang stopped him with a smile: "Old Qiao, Chunyan is pretty good."
"It's not bad. Compared with Bingkun and the others, it's far behind. By the way, I heard our Chunyan say that Bingkun is now working, and he's still in a big hospital in the capital. It's amazing. What about Bingyi and Xiaorong?
They have graduated too, where are they assigned?"
Zhou Zhigang explained with a smile: "Bingkun graduated and became a doctor, but Bingyi and Xiaorong are not working yet. They were admitted to graduate school after graduation and are now studying for graduate school."
Qiao's father and Chunyan's mother both looked confused: "Graduate student? What is that? Research or something?"
Qiao Chunyan explained at the side: "Dad, Mom, graduate students are not studying anything, but they are better than college students. After graduation, they will become state cadres."
In fact, she didn't know much about graduate students, but she couldn't show her timidity at this time.
When Qiao's father heard this, he was immediately surprised and praised again: "It's amazing, Zhigang. Bingyi and Xiaorong will definitely be more promising in the future, especially Bingyi. It's just that he has the ability, and he also has a high-ranking father-in-law."
Man, he will definitely become a high official in the future."
The smile on Zhou Zhigang's face faded and became a little gloomy. He laughed dryly and said: "Where, where? Who can say for sure about this kind of thing? It depends on his own ability. After sitting here for so long, it's time for us to leave."
"No, Zhigang, now that you're gone, I don't know when we will see each other next time. Let's talk, let's talk."
"No, no."
…………
After leaving Qiao Chunyan's house, Zhou Zhigang took his family to several houses to pay New Year's greetings. It wasn't until Feng Yueming was too tired and his legs hurt that he stopped showing off and prepared to take the children home.
Looking at Zhou Zhigang walking with his hands behind his back, walking like a dragon and a tiger with a smile on his face, Zhou Chen secretly laughed. This little old man has quite a strong sense of vanity.
But at noon, Zhou Zhigang's good mood was half gone, because after coming out of the photo album, Zhou Bingyi said something and took Hao Dongmei away, with no intention of going to Zhou Chen's place to have dinner with his family.
Although Zhou Zhigang didn't say anything, there was a thorn in his heart. If this continues, how much relationship will the eldest son have with them?
In other words, once the old couple leaves, the two brothers will really stop communicating with each other.
Such a situation is something Zhou Zhigang does not want to see.
After lunch, Zheng Juan said to Zhou Chen: "Bingkun, when we were at Chunyan's house in the morning, she pulled me and said, let's get together again on the third day of the junior high school."
Zhou Chen did not answer, but asked: "Then what do you think?"
Zheng Juan said: "I listen to you."
"Then don't step on her. You saw it last time. We are living well now, and it is harder to sit with them and chat calmly. Things are different now."
But on the third day of junior high school, Qiao Chunyan didn't come to the door, but Xiao Guoqing and Sun Qianchao did.
"National Day, catch up, why are you here, have you eaten?"
Zhou Chen was very surprised when he saw Xiao Guoqing and Sun Qianchao coming over early in the morning, and he had some guesses in his heart.
Sure enough, what Sun Qianchao said next fulfilled his suspicion.
"Kun'er, isn't it the third day of junior high school today? We haven't gotten together in three years, so why should we get together today? We are here to invite you."
Zhou Chen didn't get together, but just said, "How about you bring your wife and children to my house for a get-together?"
Xiao Guoqing waved his hand and said: "No, Kun'er, I'm not here with you anymore. You'd better go to my place. I've already asked Wu Qian to start preparations."
Sun Qianchao also echoed: "Yes, Kun'er, I also asked Yu Hong to help. Don't think about it. Call Zheng Juan and let's go."
Facing the two enthusiastic young people, Zhou Chen couldn't refuse, so he could only nod in agreement, tell his parents, and then ride a bicycle to take Zheng Juan and Xiao Guoqing to the optical film.
