Zhou Bingkun and Zhou Bingyi separated and returned home.
Zheng Juan was cooking, and Guangming was looking at Zhou Cong. The child, who was about one year old, could walk crookedly. Guangming couldn't see, so he could only take care of the child with his hands at all times. It was obvious that he was very dedicated.
When he saw Zhou Bingkun coming home, he smiled and waved to him. Zhou Bingkun hugged him and put him on the bed again.
"How was your conversation with eldest brother?" Zheng Juan entered the room carrying food.
"What else can I do? I've already said what needs to be said. Anyway, I won't be able to enter that house in a short time, so I can only continue to live here."
Zheng Juan still couldn't bear it and said, "How about you go back and admit your mistake?"
Zhou Bingkun shook his head and said: "This is not a matter of simply admitting my mistake, nor is it just a matter of the two of us getting married. The real problem is that I cannot follow my family's arrangements for everything."
"Then will my elder brother help you persuade me when I get back?"
"Probably so. My eldest brother takes responsibility very seriously, but he is always looking for a balance. Look at my sister's matter, he actually agreed in his heart, but it took four years to tell my dad and persuade him to accept it.
.”
"What should I do at Mom's place?"
Zhou Bingkun didn't want Zheng Juan to worry, so he didn't say anything.
In fact, the outcome was already determined.
Zhou Bingyi will not stay, and Zhou Zhigang and Zhou's mother will not let him stay. His father Zhou Zhigang will not stay either. The third-tier junior college also has his beliefs.
Moreover, nothing could be found about Zhou's mother's condition, and there was no reason to convince them to stay.
Things were just as Zhou Bingkun expected.
When Zhou Bingyi returned home, he did not dare to let Zhou Zhigang know that he was looking for Zhou Bingkun. Even though Zhou's mother looked at him expectantly, he did not speak immediately, but gave Zhou's mother a wink.
Mother Zhou glanced at Zhou Zhigang and wisely closed her mouth.
In the past few days, Zhou Zhigang's anger towards Zhou Bingkun has not only not subsided, but has intensified. At home, no one dares to mention the word Zhou Bingkun. Once mentioned, Zhou Zhigang will lose his temper and there will be no room for relaxation.
Zhou Bingyi could only quietly say to Zhou's mother: "Bingkun is fine. Don't worry. I will try to persuade my father when he is relieved."
Zhou Bingyi also told some other interesting things to coax Zhou's mother to avoid Zhou Zhigang seeing any flaws.
"Mom, I'll take you to the hospital for a check-up in two days."
Zhou's mother said, "Why are you going to the hospital, Bingkun." When she said Bingkun, Zhou's mother subconsciously lowered her voice.
"Bingkun always advised me to go to the hospital for a check-up. Why waste the money? I told him that I was not sick, but he still didn't trust me. He always advised me not to be excited or anxious. But I have such a temper, and I didn't have any problems before.
.”
Zhou Bingyi asked: "Then why did you faint when you were anxious?"
"Why did he tell you this? I was so angry with him. If he didn't spend money randomly and didn't lie to me, how could I be anxious?" Zhou's mother said nonchalantly.
"By the way Bingyi, don't imitate Bingkun. He only earns a lot of money, and he spends all day shopping for good things. When I see the meat, chickens, etc. he brings home, I'm so scared. He always
It's a friend who got it from me. I've asked Chunyan and the others, but no one knows where he got it from."
"You said that our family has been working together for a lifetime, and your father is not at home. How can I not be afraid that he will go astray?" As she spoke, Mother Zhou became anxious again, and she became a little unsteady on her feet.
What can Zhou Bingyi say? That is, Zhou's mother has not seen the things in Zheng Juan's house. If she had seen them, she would definitely not be able to sleep at night.
Hao Dongmei saw something was wrong with Zhou's mother and hurried over to help her.
Zhou Bingyi said: "Mom, you still don't understand Bingkun's temperament. Of the three brothers and sisters, he is the most courageous. You said it's possible that Zhou Rong and I did something illegal. Bingkun, he doesn't have that ability.
I don’t have the brains either.”
Zhou's mother looked at Zhou Bingyi's sincere eyes and chose to believe that her eldest son was a capable person and would not tell lies.
Hao Dongmei saw that Zhou Bingyi was lying, but she didn't expose it. After Zhou's mother left, she asked in a low voice: "What on earth did you talk to Bingkun about, and why did you lie to our mother."
Zhou Bingyi looked at the outhouse carefully and said, "Let's go for a walk and talk outside."
Hao Dongmei followed Zhou Bingyi and came to a place with relatively few people.
"Now you can tell me why it's so mysterious."
"I failed to convince Bingkun. Instead, he asked me and I didn't know what to say."
It's really strange that someone can still question Zhou Bingyi, especially this person is his younger brother who looks a little dull.
Zhou Bingyi felt a little uncomfortable when Hao Dongmei looked at him, "Don't look at me like that. Bingkun asked me three questions, and he really knocked me down."
Hao Dongmei thought for a while and said: "Bingkun's question seems easy, but it is really not easy to answer. Do you still remember Aunt Qu's comment when Bingkun was mentioned at Uncle Ma's house last time?
"
At that time, Qu Xiuzhen said: "I never expected that Bingkun is your brother. We have been friends with him for many years. Your brother is very smart and capable. What I admire most is his vision."
This comment shocked Zhou Bingyi. He couldn't believe that the person Qu Xiuzhen said was his younger brother.
The last time they met, this younger brother could only follow them as a listener, not even daring to express his opinions.
The Zhou Bingkun in my memory has changed a lot from the person he is now.
Zhou Bingyi was not jealous and said calmly: "When Aunt Qu said it, I didn't take it seriously. If you say Bingkun is kind, I still believe it. If you say he has discernment, I thought it was a compliment at the time."
"However, when I went to Taiping Hutong this time, I realized that I didn't know this brother at all. I discovered at that time that he was really very capable."
Zhou Bingyi told what he saw at Zheng Juan's house.
After hearing this, Hao Dongmei could only ask in surprise: "Are you telling the truth?"
Zhou Bingyi nodded, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. Bingkun's living standard there is very good."
"It's not only good, it's better than my dad's time. Speaking of which, I haven't eaten those fruits for several years," Hao Dongmei said.
Hao Dongmei's statement confirmed Zhou Bengyi's suspicion, and he did not dare to let Zhou's mother know.
Hao Dongmei suddenly asked: "No, what about our family..."
Zhou Bingyi said: "You also saw what my mother did just now. Do you think Bingkun dares to take these things home?"
Zhou's mother felt a little unsteady just by talking about it, let alone seeing it with her own eyes. No wonder Zhou Bingkun didn't want to live at home, the gap was too big.
"Then what do you decide to do?"
Zhou Bingyi chose to believe Zhou Bingkun, and Zhou's mother's performance also confirmed his guess. Now it is not a question of whether he did it right, but a question of Zhou's mother's health.
"I went back to persuade my mother to go to the hospital for another check-up. Bingkun said that my mother should not be anxious, but we are not at home, so how could she not be anxious."
Hao Dongmei held Zhou Bingyi's hand and said, "This is not entirely your responsibility. Let's take Dad to see it too."
Faced with this situation, Zhou Bingyi had no good solution. He nodded silently, and that was all he could do now.
