"Zhouzhou, do you remember Qin Sizhu?" Sisi reminded him with a smile.
Qin, silk and bamboo?
A small, thin and dirty figure appeared in Huo Zhou's mind.
That was when he was in college, and he and his classmates traveled together to some mountainous areas in western Sichuan. The folk customs there were simple, and the villagers welcomed their arrival very warmly.
But the backward mountainous area was really too poor. He met a few very poor children after staying in the village for a few days. They were about seven or eight years old at that time, wearing rags and carrying heavy sweet potatoes.
Go sell it.
Huo Zhou was shocked. After all, in his understanding, seven-year-old children in big cities still act coquettishly and cutely under the protection of their mothers.
So Huo Zhou couldn't help but have a heart-to-heart talk with them. When he learned that these children's learning conditions were very simple, but they were thirsty for knowledge and their academic performance was not bad, he came up with the idea of supporting them to go to college.
Ideas.
He remembered that he told them: "Study hard and come to Kyoto to find Brother Zhouzhou."
He left enough money for them, and after returning to Kyoto, he organized a charity organization to support poor children in school.
Later, he was too busy, so he left this matter to his subordinates.
Unexpectedly, time flies. In a blink of an eye, these children have grown so big.
Huo Zhou's handsome face showed waves of surprise and astonishment, followed by serious accusations.
"Are you Xiao Sizhu? I support you, but I don't want you to be my wife. In my eyes, I regard you as my children. It's just nonsense..."
Zhouzhou’s mother threw down the chopsticks in her hand, and Zhouzhou quickly fell silent.
Zhouzhou's mother said angrily: "You are 35 and she is 23. You are unmarried and she is unmarried. This is the right age. Why do you want to push Sizhu to others?"
"Besides, since you have taken care of her for the first half of your life, don't be a quitter. You will also be responsible for the rest of your life."
Huo Zhou was furious. "Mom, isn't that what you said? She is too young and is a generation apart. She is not suitable to be my wife. She is just fine to be my daughter."
Zhouzhou’s mother was so angry that she had no love left.
She patted her mother on the back thoughtfully. "Mom, don't be anxious. Take your time. Zhouzhou will only be unable to turn around for a while."
Sisi lost her mother when she was young, and Zhouzhou's mother loved her very much. She soon accepted Zhouzhou's mother as her mother.
So I was very considerate of Zhouzhou’s mother in my words.
Huo Zhou stood up, took Si Si's hand and walked outside: "Sizhu, come with me. I have to teach you a lesson."
Huo Zhou pulled Sisi outside the courtyard. Zhouzhou's mother was afraid that her son would bully Sizhu, so she wanted to stop him. Who knew that Qiao An took her hand to stop her: "Auntie, please be patient. Look." Qiao An's eyes signaled Zhouzhou's mother to see Huozhou holding Sisi's hand, so naturally and without any resistance.
Qiao An felt that these two people still had something to play for.
"The situation is not as pessimistic as we saw. At least, Zhouzhou doesn't hate Sisi."
Zhouzhou’s mother took out her mobile phone and quickly took a few photos of Zhouzhou and Sisi Kacha.
"This kid is finally enlightened." Zhouzhou's mother said happily.
Qiao An gave her a bad idea: "Auntie, throw this photo to the media and let them build momentum."
Zhouzhou's mother gave Qiao An a thumbs up: "An'an, your idea is great. If the media treats them as a couple, Zhouzhou will have to give Sisi an explanation."
Huo Xiaoran felt a cold sweat break out all over her body as she listened to the two women's plot against Zhouzhou.
If Zhouzhou likes Sisi, then he will be blessed.
But if Zhouzhou doesn't like Sisi, then what they will do is simply put Zhouzhou on the fire rack to bake.
Zhouzhou's mother suddenly looked at Qiao An slyly and joked: "An'an, no wonder my Xiaoran will fall under your pomegranate skirt. With your exquisite heart, who can calculate people's hearts better than you?"
Qiao An was dumbfounded.
She is a typical person who teaches others one thing, but when she implements it herself, she is an idiot.
Huo Xiaoran felt aggrieved: "Auntie, she doesn't care about me that much. I don't know how cold she was to me in those years. I was a hot face but a cold butt, and I flattered me until I was on the back of a horse."
Zhouzhou's mother was shocked: "Oh, Xiaoran, it turns out you took the initiative to pursue Qiao An?"
Huo Xiaoran said: "I used all the skills I have learned throughout my life to chase my wife. This is how I finally succeeded."
Qiao An pretended to be arrogant: "Then you have to cherish me from now on? Otherwise, all your efforts will be in vain."
Huo Xiaoran said stubbornly: "Yes, yes, come on, wife, I will peel the shrimps for you."
Zhouzhou's mother saw them arguing with each other, but their eyes were full of each other's tenderness and doting. Only your love really made her envious.
"Ouch. Seeing you two makes me want to be young again."
In the courtyard.
Zhouzhou and Sisi stood face to face. Sisi looked at Huozhou cutely and expressed her love: "Zhouzhou, I don't mind that you are older than me. When you get older, I will do my best to take care of you.
You, you don’t even need to hire a caregiver. How wonderful.”
Huo Zhou patted her on the head: "Is that what you called Zhouzhou? No matter how big or small you are. From now on, you'll call me brother."
"Oh. Okay. Zhouzhou." Sisi smiled so hard that her branches trembled.
You deserve it quickly, but you won’t change it.
Huo Zhou was so angry that he put his hands on his hips: "Tell me, how do you want to let me go? How about I send you abroad? You are still so young, can you continue your studies?"
"Zhouzhou, I am from the School of Management of Qingbei University. The school has already sent me to graduate school. After I get married to you, I will study abroad."
Huo Zhou was slightly surprised.
Sisi's excellence made him feel inexplicably proud and happy.
But soon he returned to reality and stared: "What if I don't marry you?"
"No. There is no one in this world who loves you more than me. Zhouzhou will definitely marry me."
Huo Zhou was speechless.
"I really don't know where the confidence comes from," he said angrily.
"Sisi, I will send someone to apply for a visa for you tomorrow. You can go abroad." Huo Zhou left these words and left.
Sisi shouted behind him: "I won't go abroad unless you marry me first."
Huo Zhou returned to the restaurant, and Huo Xiaoran poured him a glass of wine. Then he handed the glass to him and said in amusement:
"Can't get rid of it?"
"It's like dog-skin plaster." Huo Zhou was angry.
Huo Xiaoran glanced at Qiao An and said with ulterior motives: "I would like to find a piece of dog-skin plaster. But my guy doesn't have glue, so why won't he stick it on me?"
