"Just stop here..." Zhou Jian said when the car drove over a stone arch bridge. From here, he could already see his hometown Zhoujiazhuang, and the road further down was a winding path.
, and there are often children chasing and fighting on the road, as well as chickens, ducks and geese strutting back and forth, making it really inconvenient to drive in by car.
The driver stopped the car, Zhou Jian opened the door and walked out. Zhou Jian had different emotions about this peaceful village every time he came back.
The river under the bridge is still crystal clear. This river accompanied Zhou Jian for most of his childhood playtime. As a child, he often held kutui in his arms and stepped barefoot on the slippery and cold pebbles at the bottom of the river to molten snails.
——That's probably a snail lion. In fact, Zhou Jian has never been able to figure out the name of that black spiral shell creature.
Wenren Huiyin also got out of the car. She unconsciously took a look at the bright car window and straightened her hair, which was already smooth.
This kind of car window is coated with a reflective layer on the inside, so you can't see the inside at all from the outside. It has almost the same effect as a mirror. Wen Renhuiyin carefully looked at herself in the car window and asked Zhou Jian hesitantly: "Ajian,
Do you think I should put my hair up better? It would make me look more mature..."
Zhou Jian said: "You have just turned nineteen. Why are you pretending to be so mature? I think it's better to be more innocent."
"Really..." Wen Renhuiyin thought for a while and seemed to disagree with Zhou Jian's words.
Zhou Jian smiled and said, "You'll look like a fairy no matter how much you dress up. My mother will definitely smile from ear to ear when she sees you. I'm afraid she'll be so happy."
"Really? Hahaha" Wenren Huiyin chuckled. Although she knew that Zhou Jian's words contained more jokes and exaggeration, she was still very happy after hearing it, and the faint anxiety in her heart also faded away.
After a lot of confusion, she said, "What kind of people are your parents?"
Zhou Jian said: "My parents are very easy-going, but my father doesn't like to talk, and my mother talks a lot. If my father treats you coldly and indifferently, don't mind. He is that kind of person. I usually am at home.
It’s rare to see him smile.”
"Oh..." Wenren Huiyin nodded.
"Okay, let's go." Zhou Jian said as he held up an umbrella. The sun in Lingnan in July is very poisonous. If you don't hold an umbrella, your skin will get sunburned easily.
The country roads are winding, carrying the fragrance of dust. Summer cicadas lie on the coconut trees, chirping tirelessly. Although this sound is not very pleasant, it seems to always indicate an amazing,
The vitality of life brought by the magic of nature.
Wen Ren Huiyin had been following Zhou Jian quietly, and she would tiptoe around the occasional muddy road.
On the village road, I often meet some villagers, including old men driving buffaloes, villagers wearing straw hats, and naughty children tapping bamboo branches. They wear simple clothes and occasionally have mud spots on their bodies.
.
Zhou Jian greeted them one by one, but their eyes basically fell on Huiyin next to Zhou Jian, especially the children. They would not remain reserved like adults, but stopped directly, with dark eyes.
He stared unblinkingly at the fairy-like girl in front of him, with curiosity written all over her face that looked red due to long exposure to the sun.
Wenren Huiyin felt a little embarrassed by the sight. She pulled Zhou Jian and whispered: "Why are they looking at me like this..."
Zhou Jian smiled and said, "It's new. Look at the beautiful clothes you wear and how pretty you look. Even your temperament is different, so they think it's new and they haven't seen it before..."
"Uh..." Wen Renhuiyin was stunned, then smiled, "Your hometown is so cute."
Zhou Jiandao: "Do you think this place is primitive and small?"
"No, it's very peaceful, very simple, very fresh. In fact, I like this kind of place very much. It's nice to live here. It's quiet and simple every day."
Wenren Huiyin spoke from her heart. She was originally a light-hearted girl who didn't like the secular world and the hustle and bustle.
Zhou Jiandao: "Well... I remember you said that you like stars more than lights."
"Haha, you remember, well, yes... maybe I am suitable to be born in a place like this."
"Maybe... Well, here we are, that's my home." Zhou Jian pointed to an ordinary small house in front of him. His home still looks like that. His mother did not use the money he brought back to repair the house, but just
Cement was added to the dirt road at the entrance so that the house would not be filled with muddy water on rainy days.
A courtyard surrounded by old fences, mottled lime walls, and a slightly decayed wooden plaque. "Zhou Danian Clinic" is written in black paint on the plaque, and an irregular red cross is painted next to it.
The sign of a clinic like this is really unflattering. If a stranger came here, he would probably not dare to enter such a clinic. However, my father's medical skills have been spread throughout the countryside, so it doesn't matter what the brand is.
Seeing Zhou Jian's home, Wenren Huiyin's originally slightly relaxed mood suddenly became slightly uneasy. She didn't know what the relationship between Grandpa Zeng and Zhou Jian's family was, but from what Grandpa Zeng meant, it seemed to her that Zhou Jian
Her father may not be satisfied with her as his daughter-in-law.
After all, Zhou Jian's family is a martial arts family, and she doesn't even have much to praise in sports, let alone ancient martial arts.
The door of the clinic was open, and Zhou Danian was still standing in front of the counter, grabbing the medicinal materials slowly and occasionally fiddling with the abacus beads next to him. He was always like this, for decades, wearing his green suit.
Gray gown, an ever-changing scene.
Hearing someone come in, Zhou Danian slowly raised his head, and when he saw it was his son, he said lightly, "He's back."
Then he turned his attention to Wen Ren Huiyin, with a little surprise on his face. Of course, he already knew in advance that Zhou Jian was going to bring his girlfriend back, so this must be her.
Zhou Jian hurriedly introduced: "Dad, this is the Huiyin I mentioned to you."
Wenren Huiyin bowed slightly to Zhou Danian and said a little awkwardly: "Hello, uncle."
Zhou Danian looked at Wen Renhuiyin for a while and said, "Hello, welcome."
Wen Renhuiyin has been observing Zhou Danian's face carefully. Although she has never regarded her appearance as a source of confidence and pride, she knows very well that her appearance and temperament can still make people's eyes shine. She hopes to start from now on.
Where can I find it on Zhou Danian’s face?
She was afraid of a little joy, relief, and of course it would be best to have an expression of surprise and surprise, but she was disappointed. Zhou Danian just politely showed a kind smile, and then nodded and said a harmless "You
OK, welcome."
Wenren Huiyin felt a little disappointed. It seemed that her future father-in-law was not particularly satisfied with herself.
At this time, Zhou Danian said again: "We have guests at home." Naturally, he was speaking to Zhou Jian.
"Oh... what kind of guest?" Zhou Jian asked casually, without taking it too seriously. Usually the guests at home are just the aunts and sisters in the neighborhood, or relatives of the mother.
Zhou Danian said: "He is an old friend of mine. He may have something to do with you..." When he said this, he suddenly pressed the abacus beads, then closed the account and walked out of the counter. At the same time, Zhou Jian listened.
The sound of extremely rhythmic footsteps and even breathing could be heard in the back room. This person was probably the guest mentioned by his father, and listening to the sound of his walking and breathing, it seemed that he was a master of the family.
When Zhou Jian was wondering what kind of person this was, the expression on his face suddenly froze. He saw the door curtain was opened, and a middle-aged man wearing soap clothes and with long gray hair appeared.
At the door, although he was smiling, his eyes were unconcealably sharp, and there was a faint murderous intent in his whole body, as powerful as an unsheathed sword.
This person is actually Qin Yunzong!!
Zhou Jian's heart shrank for a moment. He felt his hands and feet were cold all of a sudden. Qin Yunzong...why did he appear here!?
With his father here, he is certainly not afraid of what will happen to Qin Yunzong, but since Qin Yunzong appears here, he probably already knows a lot of things. At least he will know that Qin Lan's death is related to him!
If he develops a desire for revenge in the future, he doesn't have to worry about his parents, but what about Huiyin?
Zhou Jian did not expect such a bad thing to happen suddenly, which caught him by surprise!
Qin Yunzong looked at Zhou Jian with a smile and said, "I guess this is my nephew, haha, he is indeed the same person."
There was no hostility in Qin Yunzong's voice. It seemed as if he were meeting the child of an old friend, with a hint of kindness and peace. However, the other person's smile made Zhou Jian feel the slightest bit cold.
He forced a smile and said, "Hello, uncle."
"Okay, haha, hey, this is..." Qin Yunzong looked at Wen Renhuiyin with a smile.
Zhou Jiandao: "This is my high school classmate."
Although he knew that Qin Yunzong wanted to find out about Huiyin, it was as simple as eating and drinking water, but he still would not directly tell his relationship with Huiyin.
"Oh, that's it. What a nimble little girl."
Although the atmosphere of the conversation seemed harmonious, Wen Renhuiyin also noticed the tension hidden in the atmosphere. She didn't know why Zhou Jian wanted to hide her relationship with him, but she could feel Zhou Jian's panic for a moment.
, obviously because of this middle-aged man who suddenly appeared, who is he?
Wenren Huiyin could faintly sense an aura of calmness and authority from this person. This usually only appeared in people who had been in high positions for a long time. However, she thought about it carefully, but she did not remember that there was such a number one person in Lingnan.
, but after taking a closer look, I felt that this man looked familiar, mainly because his long white hair was too obvious, as if I had seen him in a photo at Grandpa Zeng’s house.ro!.
