Chapter 766 Want to give advice to Zhou Chen’s future father-in-law
In the tenth year of Yu Huanshui's world, Zhou Chen felt that he no longer had any nostalgia.
Over the years, he has also used his own methods to do many things to fight against illegal crimes, but he doesn't know what kind of rewards he can get in the end of side tasks.
In this world, generally speaking, it is relatively easy. He does a lot of pretense and slaps in the face, which can be regarded as venting his bad temper on the original Yu Huanshui.
Since he no longer had any nostalgia, Zhou Chen was not prepared to stay in this world anymore, so he quickly connected to the system and chose to return.
Zhou Chen opened his eyes again and saw the familiar environment in the room. Zhou Chen had no sense of novelty anymore.
In total, he has traveled through time more than a dozen times. Except for the first time, which was at his parents' house, the rest of the time travels seemed to be in this home and this room.
Compared to the hundreds of years he has lived in the film and television world, he has not really spent much time in this room.
He didn't sigh for a few seconds before he immediately remembered the most important thing.
"System, open the panel."

:To be collected.
Side missions:
I am a good citizen: fight against criminals, starting from me, help fight against the criminals in the TV series, the reward is determined by the completion rate (completed); reward: to be collected.
The previous four attribute points were evenly distributed among the four basic attributes by Zhou Chen. This time he completed the task and gained four more points.
I received the reward directly, and then the system panel changed, the task disappeared, and the reward appeared.
But what makes Zhou Chen depressed is that the rewards he received this time are really not that good, there are only two plot cards, plus two shuttle cards.
There are no special items like skills and identification eyes.
"It's a little uncomfortable."
There were no tasks or rewards in the previous film and television world, and the rewards in this world were just like this, which really disappointed him.
But he had no choice. He had no control over rewards, so he could only follow the system and get whatever the system gave him.
After continuously traveling through time, Zhou Chen decided to take a good rest for a month this time. Although he was not exhausted physically or mentally, he still closed his eyes and prepared to have a good sleep.
Zhou Chen, who was not stressed, slept for more than ten hours. When he woke up, it was already around four o'clock the next morning, and his stomach was growling with hunger.
Zhou Chen got up and made a big bowl of noodles. After eating, he couldn't sleep anymore, so he turned on his computer to search for dramas and started watching them.
The continuous time traveling left him no time to watch TV series, so he needed to catch up on it this month.
In fact, when he was in the film and television world, he often watched TV series. However, after more than a dozen worlds, he found that the film and television dramas he traveled through were all film and television dramas that existed in the real world. None of the TV series he watched in the film and television dramas was worn.
Been in there.
Therefore, he can conclude that he can only travel through TV series that exist in the real world. Movies and TV shows in movies and TV series are not within the scope of the system's time-travel.
Watching TV at normal speed was too inefficient, so Zhou Chen initially adjusted it to 1.5 times, but not long after, he adjusted it to twice as much, which felt good.
It wasn't until after ten o'clock that he received a call from his mother Li Congping, asking him to come over for lunch. She also said that his sister Zhou Xin would also come over at noon.
When he first traveled through time, Zhou Chen would often miss his mother in the real world, especially when decades had passed in the film and television world, and that was when he missed her the most.
But maybe it’s because you’ve traveled more times and experienced more, and many of your feelings will be buried. It’s fine if you don’t mention them at ordinary times, but when you mention them or hear the voices of your loved ones, the longing will become extra strong and difficult to control.
.
If time travel was really included, he had not seen his parents for a long, long time, so when he heard Li Congping's voice, he was very excited and couldn't wait to see his parents.
The video paused, Zhou Chen got up, took his clothes and went to the bathroom, preparing to take a shower before going to his parents' place for dinner.
When I got home, I saw Li Congping cleaning up in the kitchen, but I didn't see her father Zhou Zhiming.
"Mom, where is my dad? Isn't he at home?"
Li Congping didn't even look back and said loudly: "Don't mention your dad. He is very handsome now. Ever since you bought him a new car, he has invited people to go fishing every two days. Sometimes he goes in the morning and doesn't come back until midnight. Sometimes
I'll go in the middle of the night and come back in the afternoon."
"Then why don't you talk about him?" Zhou Chen asked.
"Is it useful if I say it? You two, father and son, are both virtuous, so it's useless." Li Congping's tone was full of displeasure.
Zhou Chen laughed awkwardly and didn't say much on this topic. He knew that his father had just retired and was restless. He usually liked to play mahjong, but he never played big games. The most he could win or lose was two hundred yuan.
, and occasionally go fishing.
Recently, it may be because Zhou Chen bought him a new car, so he often invites a few friends to go fishing. Fishing is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also to show off.
Zhou Chen himself has been a father many times, so he understands Zhou Zhiming's thoughts very well.
Li Congping also knew who her husband was, so she just talked about it and would not really be angry. If she was really angry, Zhou Zhiming would not be so presumptuous.
"Mom, do you need my help?"
"No, you hurry out."
Li Congping pushed Zhou Chen out of the kitchen. She never liked asking her children to do housework. Even when Zhou Xin was at home, she rarely asked Zhou Xin to do things.
In the words of the old couple, they have lived a hard life since childhood. Cooking and doing housework has become a habit. She doesn't care what the children do when they go back to their own homes, but when they come to her place, they basically don't know how to do it.
Taking the initiative is called housework, unless relatives are coming and it is too busy for one person.
Zhou Chen sighed. He didn't force himself to help because he knew his mother. She really didn't like him being busy in the kitchen. This was somewhat similar to the concept in ancient times.
Not long after, Zhou Xin also came back from get off work. She came alone.
The three of them were sitting at a table eating, and Zhou Xin took the initiative to ask Zhou Chen, "Xiao Chen, how was your conversation with Mr. Li's daughter?"
Everyone in the Zhou family already knows about Zhou Chen and Li Luo's relationship, but they didn't ask much about it before, and they have been getting along for a while now.
Zhou Chen replied casually: "It's pretty good."
Zhou Xin asked again: "Then when are you going to bring her back to meet her parents? They have been waiting anxiously for a long time. But I know that you have already been to Mr. Li's house."
They were all a family, so she didn't have to worry about anything and just said what she wanted.
Li Congping immediately stopped eating and stared straight at Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen understood what his mother meant, so he put down his chopsticks and said seriously: "I still have to tell Li Luo about this matter. After all, she is a woman. She must not be casual when she comes to our house for the first time."
"Of course."
Li Congping agreed with her son's words. As a woman herself, she knew very well that it was special for a woman to go to her boyfriend's house for the first time.
Zhou Xin said: "Then you go and ask. It's best to do it this Sunday. I will be able to come over and help you check."
"I will try my best."
Zhou Chen is not sure, but he thinks the problem is not big. Li Luo still has a good feeling for him now. He has also been to Li's house. Even if Li Luo has a colder temper, he is not ignorant of the world. As long as he speaks, he will be heard.
Eight or nine times I won't refuse.
Li Congping asked: "You have been with this little girl for so long. How do you feel? Can you live a good life?"
For a mother, whether her daughter-in-law is beautiful or not is secondary. The most important thing is that she must know how to live a good life. A woman who cannot live a good life will only be a mess in the house after she gets married.
Before Zhou Chen could speak, Zhou Xin rolled his eyes.
"Mom, Xiaochen has only been talking to me for a long time. I've probably never even been to his place. How can he know if this little girl is a person who lives a good life?"
Li Congping hummed: "How come you can't tell? If a person is diligent and lazy, you can tell it after spending some time together. You can only pretend for a while."
"Forget it. It's not what I said. Today's society is different from your time. There are a few young girls today who are as diligent as you. I think that as long as they have a good personality and are not fussy about things, I think
He gets angry when he says a few words, but other people with good moral character are just fine."
"How can you live a life if you are not diligent? Your brother also knows that he is not a diligent person. If you find another lazy person, how will you live in the future?"
Zhou Chen was helpless: "Mom, am I like this in your heart? At home, I just want to be diligent, but you don't give me this chance."
Zhou Xin also advised: "Mom, you really don't have to worry about it. Even if they are not diligent, the worst thing is to hire a nanny in the future. Now that Xiaochen has made a career, Mr. Li and his family only have one daughter. If
We are together, and the conditions are the same, so don’t think too much about it.”
She is in the workplace and often comes into contact with young people, so she knows very well what most young people are like nowadays, and she is much more open-minded than Li Congping.
To put it simply, Li Congping values life more. It doesn't matter if you are poor, as long as you work hard, know how to live, and take care of others.
As for Zhou Xin, she is absolutely convinced that as long as the family conditions are good enough, many things can be solved with money. 90% of family conflicts are caused by money.
"Yes, Mom, I know you are doing it for my own good, but your son, I have grown up and know what I need and what I don't need."
Zhou Chen doesn't want his mother to worry too much about this matter. He hopes that her can play cards and play around every day to cultivate her interests like his father.
But he knew better about his old mother's character. She would rather mop the floor and do housework at home than go out to dance square dances with others. At most, she would just find a few old sisters to chat with and have fun...
…
"Grown up? No matter how old you are, you are still a child in my eyes."
Li Congping didn't take Zhou Chen's words to heart at all. In her eyes, as long as Zhou Chen was not married for a day, he was just a child. No, maybe even if Zhou Chen was married, he would still be a child in her eyes.
"You have to be careful about bringing your girlfriend back, you know?"
"I understand, Mom, don't worry."
After having dinner with her mother, Zhou Xin took a nap and then went to work again. Zhou Chen was bored and found an excuse to leave.
I went back home and continued to watch dramas while messaging and chatting with Li Luo.
But before he told Li Luo that he wanted to take her home, Li Luo told him that her parents invited him to their home.
Zhou Chen thought about it for a while and agreed. Li Luo's parents invited him to their home again, which showed that they had a good impression of him and supported him and Li Luo's continued development, which made him quite happy.
A happy marriage is a marriage that can be approved and blessed by both parents.
In the evening, Zhou Chen brought two bottles of good wine and nothing else. This was already his second visit. It didn’t need to be as grand as the first time, but he also had to be polite. It was more appropriate to bring two bottles of wine.
of.
Like last time, Li Luo greeted Zhou Chen downstairs, and then went upstairs together.
Li Ruiyang and Zhu Xiuqin opened the door and welcomed Zhou Chen with smiles.
"Xiao Zhou, here you go, come in and sit down."
"Uncle, aunt, hello."
Li Ruiyang invited Zhou Chen to sit down on the sofa, while Zhu Xiuqin went to the kitchen to cook, and Li Luo went to help.
"I heard from Luoluo that you have opened a financial company in the city?" Li Ruiyang asked Zhou Chen with a smile.
Zhou Chen said: "What kind of financial company is it? It's just a small studio. I do some small investment business. I'm just trying it out. I don't know if I can do business. After all, our city is not even a second-tier city. This
I still don’t know whether one line will work or not.”
Li Ruiyang smiled and said: "Whether it works or not is another matter. Young people need to be more adventurous. Even if this line of work doesn't work, you can still change to another line. Youth is capital. I am very optimistic about you."
Originally, he learned from Zhou Xin that the Zhou family was an ordinary family, but through this period of contact and his daughter's narration, he found that Zhou Chen was a little unusual, mature and steady, and nothing compared to the outstanding young people he had seen.
not bad.
He thinks he has a good eye for people, and he thinks Zhou Chen will definitely have a future, so he strongly agrees with Zhou Chen and his daughter's continued development.
"Thank you for your consideration."
Zhou Chen glanced at the coffee table and was surprised to find that there was a snuff bottle and a rusty incense burner on the coffee table.
Zhou Chen's gaze was noticed by Li Ruiyang. He smiled and pointed to the snuff bottle and incense burner on the coffee table.
"This was given to me by a friend when I returned to Jinling yesterday. You are young and may not understand these things very well. Don't underestimate these two things, they are both treasures."
Zhou Chen lowered his head and twitched the corner of his mouth. My future father-in-law, these two are not treasures. If you give me 100 yuan, you can buy several of them.
But he asked: "Uncle, this must be an antique. To tell you the truth, I was in college outside and fell in love with antique novels. I also studied on my own for two years. I am not afraid of your jokes. I
It feels pretty good and I feel like I have some discernment.”
"Ha ha……"
Li Ruiyang laughed out loud and assumed the posture of an elder instructing a younger one.
"You boy, you are really fearless even if you don't know. You have studied antiques by yourself for two years, but you dare to say that you have good eyesight. You, Uncle Li, and I have been in this industry for more than ten years, and we don't even dare to say that we have good eyesight. You are so proud of yourself."
Already."
He said this, but in fact, he didn't mean to teach him a lesson. He just felt that Zhou Chen was an outsider, with weak eyesight, lack of knowledge, and young and energetic attitude.
"Since you said you have some discernment, come and take a look at this snuff bottle and incense burner to see how good they are."
Zhou Chen felt helpless, why did he need to look at it? He could tell the authenticity at a glance, but looking at Li Ruiyang's appearance, he obviously believed confidently that these two items were genuine. What should he say?
Thinking of this, he really regretted why he had taken a look just now.
"Uncle, this is not good."
"If there's anything wrong with it, just take a look at it and tell your own opinion. I'll let Uncle guide you."
Li Ruiyang said so, what else could Zhou Chen do but agree.
"Uncle, do you have any gloves?"
Li Ruiyang looked surprised: "It's quite professional, but we are all a family. Whatever gloves you want, please pick them up carefully and look at them as you like."
The casual sentence "family" made Zhou Chen smile. This future father-in-law is a bit interesting.
So he was no longer polite. He first picked up the incense burner, pretended to be serious, and looked at it over and over for several minutes. Then he carefully put it down and picked up another snuff bottle to look at it.
Li Ruiyang didn't urge Zhou Chen, he just leaned on the sofa, holding the teacup, and looked at Zhou Chen with a smile.
He didn't think Zhou Chen had any discernment, but he was very happy to see Zhou Chen was interested in this aspect.
Because in their family, including his big family, he couldn't find anyone who liked antiques like him, so he was so happy when he saw Zhou Chen was interested in antiques.
Even if Zhou Chen is a layman, he doesn't care at all. Instead, he feels that he will have a greater sense of accomplishment by coaching Zhou Chen.
Seeing Zhou Chen watching for nearly ten minutes with a frown on his face, he smiled even more happily, because he could see that Zhou Chen was indeed observing carefully, instead of just pretending to look to please him.
"How's it going, Xiao Zhou, did you see something?"
