Chapter 591: Gathering in Yanjing to confront Zhou Rong again
Li Suhua's words surprised Zhou Chen. He did not expect that the first thing his mother did when she came to Yanjing was to want to see her eldest son and daughter.
The surprise was only a momentary surprise. He finally coaxed the old lady to come over. Even if it was to comfort her, he had to agree to this request.
"Okay, so, Mom, I will go to Peking University to find my eldest brother tomorrow. He should be at school now. There should be no problem with him. As for Zhou Rong, I can't say."
Li Suhua glared at him and said: "As for your sister, ask your eldest brother to go over and tell her not to quarrel with your sister anymore."
Although Zhou Chen and Zhou Rong had a serious quarrel, as a mother, she felt that the disputes between her children would come and go quickly. As long as she reconciled slowly, they would definitely be reconciled soon.
No, as long as the family can get together tomorrow, the relationship between the daughter and the younger son will definitely be eased.
Zhou Chen could roughly guess what Li Suhua was thinking. Although he didn't care, he also knew that it was his mother's kindness. He didn't agree with it, but he didn't refute it either.
"As long as she doesn't act like a monster, I don't care about her."
For a selfish person like Zhou Rong, Zhou Chen's idea is to stay away from her, but if she jumps around in front of him, he will never be polite to her.
That night, except for a few children, all the adults had a restless sleep. Zhou Chen couldn't sleep well because Zheng Juan was tossing and turning on the bed, which made him sleep poorly.
"Bingkun."
After turning around for a long time, Zheng Juan gently touched Zhou Chen. She knew that Zhou Chen was not asleep.
"What's wrong?"
Zheng Juan's voice was filled with panic: "Are we really going to settle in Yanjing in the future?"
"Isn't this already here? Haven't you accepted it yet?"
"I just think it's incredible. It's like a dream. We can actually settle in the capital and live in such a nice house."
This house is a bit smaller than the one at home, but it looks more luxurious, and the environment in this community is much better than their house.
What she saw along the way allowed her to see the prosperity of Yanjing, and her hometown Jichun City couldn't compare with it.
But the more this happened, the more unsure she felt. When she was in Jichun City, she was already living at the bottom. If she hadn't married Zhou Chen, she would probably have to live at the bottom for the rest of her life.
Seeing the prosperity of Yanjing in vain, she was excited, but also more fearful and uneasy. She was afraid that she would not be able to adapt here, and that she would hold Zhou Chen back.
Zhou Chen lay down flat and hugged Zheng Juan's body. Zheng Juan rested her head on Zhou Chen's shoulder.
"This is not a dream, Juan'er. Do you remember what I once told you? I want to make you the happiest woman in the world."
"Remember, I remember, Bingkun, I am already the happiest woman in the world. Being able to marry you will make my whole life worthwhile."
"Don't say that, we still have decades of good times to live, and there will be more good times in the future."
Zhou Chen is not ready to leave this world early. He has already made a decision and will live until the end. Therefore, he and Zheng Juan have at least forty or fifty years left to live.
"Um."
"I'll clean up the house in the next two days. After I go to school, you and my mother can take the children to stroll around the community or go to the park to play. I have already investigated and found that this area is still very safe.
"
"I understand. Mom asked you to go see Big Brother and the others tomorrow. Do you want to go early in the morning?"
"Yes, I still have to find a way to buy a bicycle. It would be too inconvenient if I don't have a bicycle."
"Does our family still have enough money?"
"It's enough. I'll leave part of the money at home to you, and I'll take the rest with me for use."
"You can just keep it for use. We don't need much money at home."
"Go to sleep..."
Early the next morning, Zhou Chen had breakfast, made an explanation, and then went out to Peking University.
Although Zhou Chen has never studied at Peking University, he is not unfamiliar with it. However, that was Peking University many years later, and there are still some differences between the Peking University now and the future.
Today is the opening day for the major universities in Yanjing. The first college entrance examination in ten years has a lot of people admitted, so the major universities are very lively, and the same is true for Peking University.
After finding out the location of the Philosophy Department, Zhou Chen went there and asked many people before he found out about Zhou Bingyi.
Zhou Bingyi arrived at the school yesterday, completed the admission procedures, and has now moved into the dormitory.
When Zhou Chen found him, he was packing his things in the dormitory and chatting with others.
The person talking to Zhou Bingyi was a classmate from a foreign department. Unlike him who was already thirty years old, he was only twenty-three years old and had not even attended a formal high school. He relied solely on self-study and tutoring in the past year.
Admitted to Peking University.
In fact, many people who are admitted to college this year are just like him. People like them are relatively young, while many other workers, farmers, etc. are older.
Although Zhou Bingyi is thirty years old, he is not the oldest among the freshmen at Peking University. There are many older students than him.
"Zhou Bingyi, someone is looking for you."
When he heard someone calling him, Zhou Bingyi immediately stood up: "Classmate, who is looking for me?"
"It's me, brother." Zhou Chen walked out from behind.
"Bingkun?"
Zhou Bingyi was overjoyed when he saw Zhou Chen. He rushed over in a few steps and gave Zhou Chen a hug.
"Bingkun, how did you find yourself here? Doesn't your school start today?"
"It doesn't matter to us. You can go in the afternoon. I came to see you because of my mother's order. She asked you to have dinner at noon or in the evening."
When Zhou Bingyi heard this, his eyes widened immediately: "Did you really bring our mother and Juan'er?"
"Otherwise, do you think I'm joking?"
When Zhou Chen saw Zhou Bingyi making a fuss, he knew that he had not taken his words to heart before.
"We arrived yesterday."
"Then where do you live?"
Zhou Bingyi was surprised by Zhou Chen's decisive behavior. He knew who their mother was, but Zhou Chen was able to convince her. It seemed that he had put in a lot of effort.
"I came to Yanjing a few days ago, rented a house, and then brought my mother and Zheng Juan over. After arriving yesterday, the first thing my mother did was to ask me to come to you and call you for dinner.
"
Zhou Bingyi was also very happy. He left his hometown to study in Yanjing. He originally thought that he would only have his sister with him, but when he thought that his mother and younger brother were here, he felt very good.
"How did your mother feel after she came?"
"You may be happy, but you may be reluctant to leave. Okay, after you go there, you ask him face to face. I heard that you have already registered for admission. Do you want to come back with me for lunch later, or go over in the evening?"
Zhou Bingyi said: "Our school's enrollment report lasts for two days. I have already completed my enrollment and will buy some daily necessities later. So, I will go over in the evening and inform Zhou Rong that I just met her this morning.
I met and helped her get admission."
"At night? Okay, here, this is the address where we live. You can find it by yourself then." Zhou Chen handed Zhou Bingyi a piece of paper with his home address recorded on it.
Zhou Bingyi took it, took a look, and then received it in the pocket.
"Is your place far from our school?"
"It's not very far. If possible, you can borrow a bicycle."
"Okay, I'll find someone to borrow it from."
"Then I'll leave first. I have to report in the afternoon."
Zhou Chen waved goodbye to Zhou Bingyi and went straight home.
This was not his first time going to college, so the admission report was very easy for him, and he applied for admission quickly in the afternoon.
Universities are different from junior high schools. Students are required to live on campus. Although the house he rents is very close, he still needs to apply for accommodation.
Although it is a university in the capital, the current conditions are not that good. The dormitory is an eight-person dormitory, which can be said to be quite crowded.
When Zhou Chen arrived at the dormitory, the other seven people had already arrived, and it could be seen that everyone was quite active.
Everyone reported each other's names, and Zhou Chen discovered that the eight people were from different places, including two from Yanjing and the remaining six from different provinces.
After getting to know each other, some people clamored to eat together, and of course they were all going to the canteen.
Nowadays, supplies are very tight, and few people go out to eat out. What’s more, everyone is here to study, and no one is generous enough to say that they want to treat us.
Zhou Chen said sorry to his roommates and said that he was going home for dinner. They were all very surprised. When they learned that Zhou Chen had rented a house outside and brought his family to the university, everyone was impressed.
's body fell to the ground.
It was the first time in ten years that the college entrance examination was going to university. Everyone came to study with ambition. It was definitely rare for someone like Zhou Chen to bring his family to go to university.
Even the two natives of Yanjing admire Zhou Chen endlessly.
When Zhou Chen arrived home, he found that Zhou Bingyi had already arrived. In addition to him, Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng also came.
Seeing Zhou Chen coming back, Zhou Bingyi happily greeted him, while Feng Huacheng greeted him cautiously. Last time, Zhou Chen went crazy and scared him badly.
Originally, he thought that Zhou Chen was a cultural person like him, but who would have thought that Zhou Chen would be so fierce in his actions, so much so that he felt a little embarrassed when he saw Zhou Chen now.
As for Zhou Rong, her face was as gloomy as the sky covered with dark clouds. She glared at Zhou Chen and didn't dare to look again.
Not only was Feng Huacheng a little jealous of Zhou Chen, she was the same. After all, Zhou Chen had hit her in the face several times, and it hurt just thinking about it.
Zhou Chen called him eldest brother, then nodded to Feng Huacheng without saying anything, let alone brother-in-law, which made Feng Huacheng quite embarrassed.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Zhou Bingyi quickly calmed down the atmosphere: "Bingkun, you have been to school, how do you feel?"
Zhou Chen said: "It's not as good as your Northern Nature. The place is small and the environment is not as good as yours, but in general, it's okay."
Feng Huacheng said with a smile: "The medical school has relatively few majors, and the enrollment is also relatively small. The place is naturally incomparable with the two famous schools. However, the medical school in Yanjing is now the best medical school besides Union Medical College.
It’s your school, and its majors must be very excellent.”
"Huacheng is right. If I have time, I will also go to your school to visit."
Zhou Chen took a look and noticed that there were few people there, so he shouted to Li Suhua in the kitchen: "Mom, where are Juan'er and the children?"
Zhou Bingyi said: "Juan'er and Guangming took Rui Ruiyue and the others out to buy things. Hey, Bingkun, your community is okay. There are actually people who open a canteen. Aren't you afraid of being closed down?"
Although times have changed and policies have become more relaxed, private enterprises are still not allowed these days. It is indeed strange that someone dares to open a canteen in a community during this period.
Zhou Chen said: "I have inquired about this canteen. It is semi-public and semi-private, and it only provides services to residents in the community. Outsiders cannot buy anything when they come here. What is more convenient is that you can buy many items without a ticket."
"Half public and half private?"
It was the first time for Zhou Bingyi and the three of them to hear this word, and they were all surprised.
While they were talking, the door opened, and then the children's voices were heard, and Zheng Juan was seen walking in with a few little ones.
"Hey, Bingkun, you're back."
Zheng Juan was very happy to see Zhou Chen back. Feng Yue was even happier than her. She took small steps and rushed towards Zhou Chen.
"uncle."
Zhou Chen stretched out his hand and held Feng Yue in his arms: "Yue Yue, have you missed your uncle?"
"I think, especially, uncle, aunt said that you have to go to school, and it will take many days to see you, right?" Feng Yue asked with a little pout.
Zhou Chen smiled and poked her bulging face, and said: "Of course not, uncle's school is very close to here. As long as Yueyue misses uncle, uncle can come back at any time."
Feng Yue immediately clapped her hands happily: "That's great."
When Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng saw their daughter being so close to Zhou Chen, they acted as if they hadn't seen them. Feng Huacheng was fine, but felt depressed, while Zhou Rong had a particularly ugly look on her face as she looked at Zhou Chen. , all with hatred.
Zheng Juan walked in with her things and happily said to Zhou Chen: "Bingkun, there are a lot of things you can buy at the canteen in this community. No tickets are required, but the prices are a bit expensive, much more expensive than where we live."
She was happy to be able to buy things without a ticket, but she was depressed because the prices had become higher.
"As long as you can buy it, it's fine if it's a bit expensive."
"Brother, sister, brother-in-law, you sit down while I go to the kitchen to help mom cook."
Zheng Juan greeted the three of them, Zhou Bingyi and Feng Huacheng both responded with smiles, but Zhou Rong had a cold expression, as if she hadn't heard.
Zheng Juan was not embarrassed and walked into the kitchen carrying her things.
Zhou Rong looked at Feng Yue who was still in Zhou Chen's arms and tried her best to smile.
"Yueyue, come here, come to mom. Mom bought you White Rabbit toffee. Come over here and mom will give it to you."
But Feng Yue didn't even look at her, and still stayed in Zhou Chen's arms, which made Zhou Rong very embarrassed.
Zhou Chen put Feng Yue down and touched her head: "Go and play with Ruirui and Congcong."
Feng Yue ran into the room very obediently and started playing with Zhou Rui and Zhou Cong.
Zhou Rong's face became even more ugly. When her biological mother spoke, her daughter didn't even look at her, but Zhou Chen, the uncle, said something casually, and Feng Yue became extremely obedient.
Without comparison, there is no harm.
Zhou Rong could no longer hold back the anger in her heart, and asked Zhou Chen in a fierce tone: "Zhou Bingkun, you want to bring your wife and children to Yanjing, that is your business, but why do you want to bring your mother and Yueyue to Yanjing?" Bring it here too, have you obtained the consent of my father and me?"
Zhou Chen turned to look at her and said contemptuously: "Why do I need your consent? Also, pay attention to the tone of your words. This is my home. If you don't want to be kicked out by me again, just be polite."
Zhou Chen confronted her again, and Zhou Rong's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
