"The time is tentatively scheduled for this weekend. We can go to my school cafeteria." Zhou Bingyi had obviously thought about the plan in advance.
"Okay, your school canteen is the school canteen, although I don't want to go to your school."
The first thing I did when I came to Tsinghua University was to look down on the school opposite.
Those who study literature look down on those who study science, and those who study science look down on those who study literature. They despise each other.
Zhou Bingyi may be really poor, so he invited his younger brothers and sisters to eat without even looking for a restaurant, and directly invited people to eat in the school cafeteria.
"You can call Zheng Juan and the child, and I'll ask Sister You to bring Feng Huacheng and Feng Yue. They haven't met each other yet."
"Let's talk about it then. My Zheng Juan is not Zhou Rong. She doesn't do anything at home and is so free."
Zhou Bingkun replied perfunctorily that he didn't think there was any need for Zheng Juan to meet Zhou Rong's family.
"Are you still okay? If not, I will go back to the classroom?" Zhou Bingkun continued.
"It's okay, it's okay, but I can't chat with you if it's okay. We are brothers." Zhou Bingyi obviously didn't want to leave. He stopped talking a few times and said, "Did Mom give you a letter? You guys are leaving.
After we passed away, Mom missed you very much."
"Zhou Bingyi, your brain is a good thing. You can use it more when you have nothing to do. Mom can't even read, so how can she write to me? If she asks her sister-in-law to write letters to me, how can you not know if you and your sister-in-law often talk on the phone?"
Zhou Bingyi laughed awkwardly: "That's right, Mom probably hasn't written to you yet. However, I heard from your sister-in-law that after you left, Mom is not used to being at home, and she is always lonely."
Zhou Bingkun somewhat understood what Zhou Bingyi meant. He must have encountered difficulties in taking care of Li Suhua.
Maybe Hao Dongmei is busy with studies and doesn't have much time, or maybe the Hao family doesn't want Hao Dongmei to go to the Zhou family to see Li Suhua every day.
Li Suhua would miss her husband Zhou Zhigang, her eldest son Zhou Bingyi, and her daughter Zhou Rong. It was the last time she could think of Zhou Bingkun's family.
Now Zhou Bingyi said that Li Suhua misses Zhou Bingkun's family, which is obviously an excuse. He wants Zhou Bingkun's family to continue to take care of Li Suhua.
"This is easy to handle. Just ask your sister-in-law to spend more time with mom. If you really think about it, mom likes you the most, and the second favorite is your sister-in-law. If you ask your sister-in-law to spend more time with mom, mom will be happy and naturally she won't feel that way.
I’m lonely and cold.”
Zhou Bingkun pretended to be confused and said, since everyone has been handed over to Zhou Bingyi, it is impossible for Zhou Bingkun to take over again.
Zhou Bingkun now says that Li Suhua is particularly fond of Hao Dongmei. It is not false. Ever since he found out that Zhou Bingyi was infertile and Hao Dongmei still insisted on Zhou Bingyi, it can be said that Li Suhua has a huge crush on Hao Dongmei.
"Yes, your sister-in-law should be allowed to spend more time with her mother, but your sister-in-law doesn't have time." Zhou Bingyi began to reason and get rid of the difficulty.
It's still the same style as before. I understand all the meanings of the words, but there are various reasons why I can't do it.
"Time is like that... water in a sponge. There will always be squeeze. If you have nothing else, I will go back to the classroom. I am very busy now. I don’t have a father-in-law who can rely on me as a leader. I took the interpreter
I’m busy working to support my family.”
If you are looking for excuses, Zhou Bingkun and Zhou Bingyi are even more justified.
Compared with Zhou Bingyi who does not need to worry about the Hao family having no one to take care of them, Zhou Bingkun has a greater responsibility.
If you really have the spare time to take care of the elderly, in terms of difficulty, Zhou Bingkun should definitely take care of the much older Aunt Zheng and the invisible Guangming.
…
On the weekend, Zhou Bingkun took Zheng Juan and Miaomiao to visit the park. They played until noon and had an early meal at a restaurant outside.
After sending the two people home, Zhou Bingkun came to Zhou Bingyi's school, Peking University, alone.
The learning atmosphere in the school is still very strong. Except that there are no professors giving lectures on weekends, it is not much different from usual times.
"Brother, why did you choose to gather at your school? Let's go to a restaurant outside and eat at Fengzeyuan or Donglaishun. It would be great."
When Zhou Bingkun went to the Peking University cafeteria and saw Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong, he heard Zhou Rong complaining.
Zhou Rong has always had very high requirements for the quality of life. She was spoiled by Zhou Zhigang, an eighth-level worker in the city.
When I went to the countryside, the conditions were limited and I didn't show much performance. Now that I'm back in the city, I started to work immediately.
"Just us brothers and sisters, there's no need to spend that wasted money. It's good to eat in the school cafeteria. The food cooked in our school cafeteria is quite good. We brothers and sisters don't make any money now, so it's better to save a little.
.”
Zhou Bingyi, who had no money, is now more down-to-earth and more practical.
"We haven't been together for so many years, so what's wrong with having a nice meal? Our family, Feng Huacheng, has just received back wages. He has a large amount of money, which is enough to spend on food. Let Huacheng come to treat us."
Zhou Rong held Feng Huacheng beside her and said proudly, it seemed that the two of them were very close, their relationship was okay, the time back to the city was still short, and Zhou Rong had not disliked Feng Huacheng yet.
"Brother, give me a chance to treat you." Feng Huacheng said from the side. Like Zhou Rong, he also likes to show off.
"Who is this? You are so arrogant. I don't know if you have said that you will starve to death for so many years, and have been helped by others for so many years, and have made so much money. Now that you are rich, do you still have this money?"
Zhou Bingkun walked up to him, looked at Zhou Rong and his wife and said sarcastically.
When Zhou Bingkun spoke, he did not want to get back the relief money for Zhou Bingyi, but he simply became arrogant and unhappy when he saw Zhou Rong and his wife succeed.
"Bingkun, you're here." Zhou Bingyi said with a smile when he saw Zhou Bingkun arriving.
"Zhou Bingkun, that's the money I'm willing to give me. If I haven't paid it back, what does it have to do with you."
Zhou Rong glared at Zhou Bingkun and said in a bad tone, coupled with Zhou Bingkun's sarcasm just now, the meeting between the two siblings can be regarded as a new grudge plus an old grudge.
Zhou Rong has moved to the city and has become rich. It is indeed very different from before. The three members of the family are all dressed in new clothes. They are completely different from the shabby and shabby work clothes with pudding in the countryside before.
"What are you two doing? We haven't seen each other for two years. If we don't meet, we'll act like enemies."
Seeing the two people arguing, Zhou Bingyi, the boss of the Zhou family, spoke up.
"I have no grudge against Zhou Rong. It's Zhou Rong who has grudge against me because I sent Feng Yue back."
Zhou Bingkun said calmly that he didn't come here just to quarrel. Seeing that Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng were exposed and couldn't get up, Zhou Bingkun stopped holding on.
"Brother, Hua Cheng and I will calculate how much money you have given us over the years, and we will pay it back to you."
Zhou Rong could not pretend that the incident of providing relief had not happened, so she could only say to Zhou Bingyi unwillingly.
"Why do brothers and sisters calculate money so clearly?" Hearing what Zhou Bingyi said, Zhou Rong was about to laugh, but Zhou Bingyi continued to say: "I have sent you this money for more than seven years in total.
Just give it back to me with almost no difference."
Zhou Rong didn't expect that Zhou Bingyi was really short of money now, and would really ask for the money he had received from the financial aid over the years. Her face collapsed at that time, and she could only bite the bullet and said:
"Brother, when we get the money later, we will send it to you. In fact, it is not easy for us. Although we have been assigned a house as him, it is just an empty house with nothing. In order to buy a house, we
It’s already cost hundreds of dollars.”
Zhou Rong is still a drama star. She was pretending to be rich just now, but now the sales are miserable.
He is not a person who is going through life, even though Feng Huacheng has now received a supplementary salary of 2,000 yuan.
Zhou Rong had made a lot of money during this period, and if he had to pay Zhou Bingyi back, there would be no more than four figures left.
"You two can settle the money matter later. Isn't it time to have dinner now?" After the matter was settled, Zhou Bingkun wanted to get over this party quickly and didn't want anything to change again.
"Eat, eat." Zhou Bingyi said.
"Brother, I have something else I want to tell you." Zhou Rong stopped Zhou Bingyi again.
"What's the matter, tell me." Zhou Bingyi frowned.
"Cai Xiaoguang, do you still remember?"
"Of course I remember." Zhou Bingyi nodded. At first, several of them hung out together.
"He has also been admitted to college, the Communication University, but because of some problems with his father, the factory did not let him come to the school to report. He asked me to ask if I could help him through his sister-in-law's relationship.
Let’s sort it out.”
Zhou Rong used Cai Xiaoguang a lot in the past, asking Cai Xiaoguang to do various things for her, and even used Cai Xiaoguang's family connections to save Feng Huacheng. Now it's time to pay off the debt.
"Let me talk to your sister-in-law about this." Zhou Bingyi agreed.
Next, Zhou Bingkun, Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong's family had a meal together without any embarrassment.
Not to mention that the relationship between Zhou Bingkun, Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong is not good.
The relationship between Zhou Rong and Zhou Bingyi was originally very good, but because Zhou Bingyi really asked Zhou Rong to pay back the money this time, there was a big gap between the two brothers and sister.
The main thing is that Zhou Rong is estranged from Zhou Bingyi, but Zhou Bingyi is not estranged from Zhou Rong yet.
He was ready to help Zhou Rong and go through the back door of his father-in-law.
Zhou Bingyi had to wait until his father-in-law disliked him for going through the back door before he and Zhou Rong became estranged.
Although he didn't eat much, Zhou Bingkun satisfied his curiosity.
I learned a lot about Zhou Rong's family, and their life is going well for the time being.
Although there were some signs of conflicts, after Feng Huacheng returned to Beijing, he became mediocre and failed to highlight his excellence.
As my daughter grew older, it became more and more inconvenient for the family to be squeezed into a single building.
There is a conflict between taking care of her daughter, taking care of the family and Zhou Rong's energy in studying.
But the conflict is still in the stage of accumulation, and it will probably not break out until Zhou Rong is done with Feng Huacheng's back pay.
With Zhou Rong's vanity and the speed at which she wastes money, it will probably take three or two months.
…
"Bingkun, hurry up. If you are slower, we will miss the train. We can finally go back to Jichun. It's too hot in the summer in the capital." Zheng Juan urged, but it wasn't that the time was really late, it was just that it was too late.
It can be said that Zheng Juan is eager to return home after not seeing Aunt Zheng and Guangming for half a year.
The time spent studying at school passed very quickly. A week passed in the blink of an eye. Zhou Bingkun and his family decided to return to Jichun during the summer vacation.
"Juan'er, don't worry, leave all these things to me. Even if we go back for more than a month, we don't need to bring so many things."
Zhou Bingkun's biggest achievement during this period besides studying may be that Zheng Juan became pregnant with another child.
"We don't have these things in Jichun. Neither the two mothers nor Guangming have been to the capital. They must have never tasted them. We still need to bring them back to give them a taste."
Candies, pastries, pickles, fruits, biscuits, bread, etc., as long as they are not available in Jichun and Zheng Juan thinks they are delicious, there is nothing that Zheng Juan does not want to bring. It is much more than what Zhou Bingkun brings home when he goes out.
"Over there in Taiping Hutong, just prepare a little bit. On the photogram side, Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong are also in the capital, so we don't need to bring so many things back."
Zhou Bingkun was not reluctant to part with these things, but he really found it troublesome to take the train with too many things.
"The two of them brought what they brought, and the two of us brought what we brought."
Occasionally, Zheng Juan has a bad temper. This time she didn't bring a bedding or too many clothes. When she returned to Jichun, she didn't bring much less than when she came to the capital.
After more than a day's train ride, the family of three returned to Jichun. The first person to return was Lao Zhou's family.
After not seeing each other for half a year, Li Suhua's attitude changed when she saw Zhou Bingkun's family and became much more enthusiastic.
There is some truth in the relationship between parents and children, including relatives.
After some pleasantries, the enthusiasm was over and Zhou Bingkun's family was no longer so fragrant. Li Suhua was still more concerned about the other two: "Bingkun, you are the only one who is back? Your brother and sister didn't come back with you?"
"Zhou Rong's school holiday will be later. Zhou Bingyi left the capital to wait for Zhou Rong, so we will come back first."
Zhou Bingyi informed Zhou Bingkun that he wanted to go back to Jichun together.
But after learning that Zhou Bingkun was unwilling to go back with Zhou Rong.
It was not difficult for Zhou Bingyi to make a choice between Zhou Bingkun, who was scolding him, and Zhou Rong, who had a good relationship but was only slightly estranged. He stayed in Beijing to wait for Zhou Rong.
"It's okay if you come back first. Mom will clean up the house for you. You are tired from riding in the car. You should take a rest first."
"Mom, you don't have to clean up the house for us. We don't live here. We'll go live in Taiping Hutong. Let my brother and sister-in-law live here. We'll leave soon."
When the three children were in Jichun, Zhou Bingkun was the least popular. There was no way Zhou Bingkun could live in old Zhou's house.
Without staying at Zhou's house longer, Zhou Bingkun had a meal at home and followed Zheng Juan back to Taiping Hutong.
During more than a month in Jichun, Zhou Bingkun also had a plan.
It’s time to find a way to buy a house in Jichun. After all, Jichun is also my hometown, and there will be many people coming back in the future.
You can't just go back to Jichun and live in your mother-in-law's house, doing the same thing as Zhou Bingyi.
When outsiders saw it, they thought that Zhou Bingkun, like Zhou Bingyi, had become someone's son-in-law.
Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong came back three days later than Zhou Bingkun. It happened that Zhou Rong's family and Zhou Bingyi came back when Zhou Bingkun was chatting with Li Suhua at Zhou's house.
"Mom!" Zhou Rong hugged Li Suhua and cried loudly after entering the door.
