After moving out of their ancestral home, Zhou Jing's family and Li Jiani's family still lived in a simple tube house. Zhou Jing's family was on the second floor and Li Jiani's family was on the third floor. The two families got along very well and often moved around each other.
As soon as he went up the stairs, he saw a tall man walking down with a garbage bag in his hand. When the man saw Zhou Jing, he couldn't help but stop and greeted warmly: "I'm back. I just did it."
We’ve got food, let’s go eat together.”
Zhou Jing smiled, shook his head, and said jokingly: "No, Brother Fan, you'd better enjoy the world of two people with Sister Jiani, and I won't be a light bulb."
This man's name is Fan Weifeng, who is also Li Jiani's husband.
Fan Weifeng laughed when he heard Zhou Jing's naughty words, while Li Jiani blushed slightly, spat, and complained in a low voice: "The little boy will talk nonsense if he doesn't study hard, go back to eat quickly, and read a book after eating.
If you don’t do well in the college entrance examination, let’s see how Sister Jiani will deal with you.”
Zhou Dingding nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will give you a surprise then."
After speaking, he waved his hand, walked briskly, turned into the corridor, and walked towards his home.
Fan Weifeng had a complicated look on his face. He looked at Zhou Jing's back for a while, then he came back to his senses, nodded to Li Jiani, and said with a smile: "Let's go, Jiani, I have something to tell you."
As soon as Zhou Jing entered the house, his mother Yuan Xiuhua came out of the kitchen with a bowl of egg soup and asked him to go to the kitchen to wash his hands and prepare to eat.
"Where's dad?" Zhou Jing asked, probing his head after washing his hands.
Yuan Xiuhua put the food on the table, took off her apron, threw it aside, and said calmly: "I'm still working overtime in the factory. I'll probably come back late. I left the food. Let's eat first. Don't worry about him."
"Is there a lot going on in the factory recently? Why do you work overtime every three days?" Zhou Jing continued the topic while pulling up a chair and sitting down while eating.
Yuan Xiuhua was a little surprised that her son, despite his young age, would actually be interested in these things. However, she nodded, touched the bowls and chopsticks, and said slowly: "The agricultural machinery factory responded to the government's rural production reform plan and planned to expand the scale of the factory.
Large-scale investment in agricultural machinery production has caused all the old masters in some factories to stay and work overtime.”
"Oh." Zhou Ding nodded.
In his mind, a scene from the end of 1997 gradually emerged. At the end of 1997, due to the unrestricted expansion of the agricultural machinery factory, the capital chain was broken. In addition, its production equipment was aging, the product qualification rate was low, and the quality was not up to standard.
As a result, it fell into a serious debt crisis and was eventually forced to close down.
And his father, Zhou Xueming, was also laid off at the end of the year. Because of this, the family, which was not very wealthy to begin with, became even more difficult. They could only rely on Yuan Xiuhua's meager salary to survive. Life was very stressful, and it took a long time.
Time failed to provide relief.
In his previous life, he was ignorant about these things. The only thing he was interested in was studying, and he didn't know the root cause of the matter. Now when he heard his mother talk about it, he already knew that for the ambitious agricultural machinery factory, it was now a crisis.
Start.
"How is Dad feeling lately?" Zhou Jing took a bite of food and asked with concern.
"It's very good. Although she is very tired, she is smiling. What's wrong? You ask so many questions?" Yuan Xiuhua said with confusion on her face. For some reason, she always felt that her child was acting weird these days, and her behavior was different from before.
Too same.
Aware of her surprised look, Zhou Jing, not wanting to arouse his mother's suspicion, stretched out his hand to scratch his head and said in a relaxed tone: "I'm just asking casually. After dinner, you will have to correct your homework later, so I don't want to waste your time.
"
Yuan Xiuhua is a primary school teacher. Due to her work, she can often be seen at her desk correcting students' homework in the middle of the night. As a result, she suffered from serious occupational diseases. This has always been a worry in Zhou Jing's heart.
After eating in a hurry, Zhou Jing rushed to the kitchen to wash the dishes. It was difficult to remember clearly whether he had done the same thing when he was this age, but the look of relief on his mother's face still made him feel happy.
Pleasure.
He has always owed too much to his parents. Even though he became famous in his previous life and greatly improved his parents' living conditions, he was too busy with work and flew around the world all year round. He rarely had time to spend with his two elders.
Until the company went bankrupt and he was extremely busy, the thing that filled his heart the most was a sense of unwillingness and resentment. He never thought about his parents who came from a distant place by train to celebrate his birthday.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jing's eyes moistened slightly, and he could start his life again. All choices were made in one thought. No matter what, he could not leave a trace of regret, not only for his parents, but also for himself!
After washing the dishes, Zhou Jing left the kitchen and returned to his small room. He read for a while, but heard Yuan Xiuhua shouting outside the door: "Xiao Jing, I made a pot of old chicken soup to nourish your father's body.
You can send a bowl to Jiani and his wife and let them try it too."
"Okay, I'll do it. You go and do your work, otherwise it will be very late tonight." Zhou Jing hurriedly rushed to help, left the room, went to the kitchen, and filled a large bowl of delicious food.
Chicken soup, carry it to the third floor.
Zhou Jing arrived at the door of Li Jiani's house and was about to knock on the door when he heard a fierce quarrel coming from the room.
"He is still a child, how can you say such things?" This was Li Jiani's voice. She seemed very angry and her voice was high.
Immediately afterwards, Fan Weifeng's voice came out: "I know he is a child, but he looks very similar to me, and he is a distant relative and related by blood. It is better to find him than someone else. Besides, you have always been interested in Xiaojing."
They all take good care of me, and he will definitely be willing to help!”
"No, I can't do this kind of thing!" Li Jiani flatly refused.
"Jani, don't refuse too quickly. Think about it carefully." Fan Weifeng continued to persuade with a hint of unwillingness in his voice.
"Fan Weifeng, are you crazy? You are such a grown man that you would say such a thing. Let me tell you, I, Li Jiani, am not such a frivolous woman. You will never think of such an idea in the future. I will never do such a thing.
!" Li Jiani was obviously furious, her voice was high-pitched and she seemed to be trembling slightly.
"Jani, don't you want a child? Do you want to be laughed at for the rest of your life?" Fan Weifeng also got angry, his voice suddenly rose a few degrees, and he asked questions like a barrage of questions.
"You, you, Fan Weifeng, it's obviously your problem, why do you want to involve me?" Li Jiani became angrier as she spoke, her voice became louder and louder, and the quarrel between the couple became more and more intense.
Hearing the words in the room, Zhou Jing suddenly woke up. He subconsciously took a step back and immediately let out a wry smile. Before the re-release of life, the most quarrelsome thing between Fan Weifeng and Li Jiani was their children, which almost became their biggest worry.
This matter involves a little-known secret. Fan Weifeng used to be a soldier. During a special training in the army, he was unfortunately hit by a stray bullet in the lower body. Although he was not injured, he was still seriously injured and left behind
Due to severe physical problems, he retired early.
It is precisely because of this that Li Jiani and Fan Weifeng have been living together for many years, but they have never been able to have a child. In this era, families without children are undoubtedly very vulnerable to criticism.
In addition, Fan Weifeng is almost 30 years old this year, and he is not young anymore. Both parents have been urging him, and this matter has become increasingly urgent.
However, Zhou Jing did not expect that such a matter between husband and wife would actually involve him.
To be fair, Li Jiani can be regarded as a typical beauty, no matter in her previous life or in her future life. She is 1.68 meters tall, slender and has perfect curves, which makes her always stand out in the crowd.
And that beautiful face with oval seeds, curved black eyebrows, a pair of beautiful eyes that look bright, as well as a small and straight bridge of the nose, and delicate red lips, are even more pleasing to the eye, without any modification.
It has a charming charm of its own.
Zhou Jing couldn't deny that he had always had a good impression of Li Jiani. That kind of good feeling was not entirely a brother-sister relationship, but rather a bit of admiration, but it was limited to this. Li Jiani was the noble person in his life and also his most important
A woman whom Zhou Jing respected, Zhou Jing had never had any inappropriate thoughts about her.
Of course, he knew clearly in his heart that Li Jiani had been married to Fan Weifeng for so many years. On the surface, the couple loved each other, but in fact, Li Jiani had always lived a sexless marriage.
Sexless love is far more hurtful than loveless sex. From this point of view, Li Jiani is undoubtedly an extremely pitiful woman.
The quarrel between the couple in the room intensified. Zhou Jing thought for a long time and finally knocked on the door.
When Li Jiani opened the door and saw Zhou Jing, she was a little surprised, her pretty face turned red suddenly, and her expression was a little unnatural.
Fan Weifeng leaned over, looked at Zhou Jing seriously, and asked with a smile: "Xiao Jing, why are you here? What's the matter?"
"I'm here to deliver chicken soup." Zhou Jing said calmly and glanced at Fan Weifeng.
There is no doubt that Fan Weifeng is a man who can make women's hearts flutter. He is more than 1.8 meters tall. He also developed a good body when he was in the army. He has a strong body, a tough face, and is full of masculinity.
If it weren't for the hidden physical illness, the marriage between the two would have been extremely happy.
Li Jiani reacted at this time, took the soup bowl from his hand, and politely invited: "Xiao Jing, come in and sit down."
Zhou Jing waved his hand and said softly: "No, you can just drink the soup. It tastes good when it's hot, but it will change after a while when it cools down."
Li Jiani hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send the bowl back later."
"Well, okay, Sister Jiani." Zhou Dingding nodded, glanced at her again, and then turned and left.
After gently closing the door, Li Jiani's expression dimmed, and her eyebrows were full of worry.
Fan Weifeng sneered and said thoughtfully: "Jia Ni, I think he must have heard what we said."
Li Jiani was startled, her fingertips trembled, and she almost dropped the soup bowl in her hand. She immediately ran out of ideas and said in a panic: "How is it possible? If he... his parents... knew about it, things would be in trouble.
!”
Fan Weifeng took the opportunity to launch a heart attack and said categorically: "Jani, no matter what, I have already spoken out my words. Think about it carefully. Xiao Jing is a good child with a kind heart and a strict mouth. He should not have any trouble with his family.
People speak.”
Li Jiani seemed not to have heard this. She walked to the table with a dull expression and put down the soup bowl. Her eyes were red, and a tear slipped quietly and fell into the milky white chicken soup.
After Zhou Jing returned to the room, the conversation between Li Jiani and Fan Weifeng was still echoing in his mind.
By some strange coincidence, he actually remembered the beautiful spring scenery on Li Jiani's chest when he was cleaning the ancestral house. His heart was pounding and he was a little panicked.
After pondering for a long time, Zhou Jing finally calmed down. He suddenly sighed and shook his head slightly. He even felt dumbfounded. How could he have such absurd thoughts?
To him, Li Jiani has always been a close sister. When Li Jiani got married, he was not that sad. Why did he feel a little uneasy when he heard the quarrel between the two?
