In her past life, Zhao Zhenzhen's military officer husband made a mistake, dying and bringing shame to the entire family.
To atone for her husband's sins, Zhao Zhenzhen did the hardes...
Zhou Yunyun told her uncle in a serious tone that her mother had said that only the closest people could kiss each other, and no one else could.
Zhao Tianyu thought he would never get a kiss from his niece in his life, but he was surprised and flattered when Zhou Yunyun kissed him today.
“Uncle is the best, Yunyun likes Uncle.” Zhou Yunyun said with a smile.
"Hahaha... Little chubby girl, you're so sweet-talking today." Zhao Tianyu laughed, his eyes crinkling with delight.
"Uncle, I'm not a fat girl," Zhou Yunyun said anxiously.
Zhao Zhenzhu herself was reluctant to eat or dress well, but she gave all the good things she had to her two children.
With the Zhao family feeding her from time to time, Zhou Yunyun grew a bit fatter than her peers.
Zhou Yunyun loves beauty and is most afraid of people saying she is fat.
"Come on, let your uncle weigh you with his hand to see if you're too heavy or too light," Zhao Tianyu said, while bouncing Zhou Yunyun on his arm.
"Can Uncle's hands still be used for weighing?" Zhou Yunyun asked in surprise, her mouth agape in an "O" shape.
"Didn't you say your uncle is the most powerful? Your uncle can do anything?" Zhao Tianyu took the opportunity to brag to himself.
"Uncle is so amazing!" Zhou Yunyun clapped her hands and said excitedly.
Zhao Tianyu pretended to grab Zhou Yunyun's wrist, lifted her up and weighed her in his hand before putting her down.
"Uncle, is it ready? I haven't gained weight, have I?" Zhou Yunyun looked up, her eyes full of anticipation.
"Hmm...it seems like I've gained half a pound." Zhao Tianyu teased Zhou Yunyun on purpose.
"Oh? Then I'll eat less from now on." Zhou Yunyun's face scrunched up.
She didn't want to be a chubby girl; she wanted to be as beautiful as her mother.
"Oh dear! Your uncle was planning to bring you some candied hawthorns in a few days! Aren't you going to eat them?" Zhao Tianyu said with a grin.
Sweet and sour candied hawthorn?
Zhou Yunyun's mouth was practically watering.
After eating candied hawthorn at her maternal grandfather's house last year, it became Zhou Yunyun's favorite food.
"Then...then I'll eat a little less after I finish the candied hawthorn," Zhou Yunyun said after a moment's hesitation.
"Didn't you say you were going to eat less?" Zhao Tianyu asked.
"Uncle, I'm not greedy, I'm just afraid I'll cry if no one eats the candied hawthorns," Zhou Yunyun explained to herself.
"Hahaha... Yes, yes, Yunyun isn't greedy, she's just afraid she'll cry if no one eats the candied hawthorns. Wait, Uncle will buy some and bring them over tomorrow." Zhao Tianyu reached out and ruffled Zhou Yunyun's hair, bursting into laughter.
Zhou Yunyun's childlike words always make Zhao Tianyu laugh heartily and dispel all his troubles.
"Uncle, is it okay to eat today? Mom said she's taking me to Grandpa's house for a few days," Zhou Yunyun asked.
That's just how kids are. If Zhao Tianyu didn't mention candied hawthorns, Zhou Yunyun probably wouldn't think of it even once in a year or two.
Whenever Zhao Tianyu mentioned candied hawthorns, Zhou Yunyun was itching to eat them, wishing she could have them right away.
"Sister, are you really taking Yunyun home to stay for a few days?" Zhao Tianyu asked Zhao Zhenzhu with a look of surprise and delight.
The day before yesterday, Zhao Tianyu came to the Zhou family to pick up Zhao Zhenzhu.
After Zhao Zhenzhu came out of Ding Ermei's room, she told Zhao Tianyu that she had something to do at home and couldn't get away, so she asked Zhao Tianyu to take Zhou Jiakai and leave quickly.
No matter how much Zhao Tianyu tried to persuade her, Zhao Zhenzhu refused to go and wouldn't allow Zhou Yunyun to go either.
Zhao Tianyu knew that Ding Ermei must have said something nasty behind his back. However, no matter how Zhao Tianyu asked, Zhao Zhenzhu refused to say.
Zhao Tianyu couldn't bear to put his sister in a difficult position, so he reluctantly left with his nephew.
Today, Zhao Zhenzhu actually agreed to take her daughter back to her parents' home for a few days. Zhao Tianyu was so happy that he almost thought he had misheard, and hurriedly asked Zhao Zhenzhu to confirm it.
"Xiaoyu, my children and I might stay at my parents' home for a few more days this time, so please take care of us and your sister-in-law," Zhao Zhenzhu said with a smile.
“Sister, what are you saying? When you go back to your parents’ home, it’s your own home. Why would we find it troublesome? Sister, if you’re willing, you can live here all the time,” Zhao Tianyu said.
"No way, the three of us, mother and daughter, have always lived at my parents' house. We'd eat you out of house and bankrupt you." Zhao Zhenzhu rarely joked with Zhao Tianyu.
There are some things we must be wary of.
The family home she now belongs to is not the same family home she had before she got married.
Liang Xiaohe, a sister-in-law, has joined her family.
Zhao Zhenzhu can stay at her parents' house for three to five days, but if she stays longer, even if Liang Xiaohe doesn't say anything, she will definitely have some complaints.
"Sister, your brother has been promoted and his salary has increased, so you don't need to worry about me not being able to support you and your nephew and niece. Even if you get married, your family will always be your family," Zhao Tianyu said earnestly.
“I know you won’t look down on us, but we’re both married now. I’m capable of supporting myself and our three children. How could I let you support us?” Zhao Zhenzhu retorted, but she was secretly overjoyed.
Her younger brother still treats her well, just like before. All her years of love and care have been worthwhile.
"Sister, even if we're both married, you're still my sister. I can earn money now and I'm happy to spend it on you. If you refuse, it means you don't treat me like a brother." Zhao Tianyu said unhappily.
"Alright, alright, I'll rely on you from now on." Zhao Zhenzhu had no choice but to agree with Zhao Tianyu, but she couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Zhao Zhenzhu believed that Zhao Tianyu was telling the truth.
Unfortunately, things are not as simple as Zhao Tianyu described.
Zhao Tianyu is already married.
After getting married, Zhao Tianyu was no longer alone. He could not only think about his own feelings when doing things, but also had to consider his wife Liang Xiaohe's thoughts.
Liang Xiaohe, that person...
Zhao Zhenzhu doesn't want to talk about it right now.
“Xiaoyu, we won’t be staying at your parents’ house for too long. Tell your sister-in-law when you have time,” Zhao Zhenzhu said.
Since Zhao Zhenzhu is planning to get a divorce, she needs to consider her future options.
Living with her child at her parents' home was Zhao Zhenzhu's most reluctant choice.
If possible, Zhao Zhenzhu wants to buy a house in town.
After the divorce, Zhao Zhenzhu did not plan to live in Zhoujia Village anymore.
I bought a house in town so it will be easier to register my household there later.
However, Zhao Zhenzhu cannot discuss the divorce yet. If Zhao Tianyu finds out, it's the same as Zhao Qingshan and his wife finding out too.
Zhao Qingshan is not easily fooled.
Zhao Zhenzhu went back to her parents' home this time hoping to relax for a few days, but she didn't want to suffer for her ears.
Since she didn't plan to stay at her parents' home permanently, Zhao Zhenzhu hoped that Liang Xiaohe would know her plans soon.
Otherwise, living under the same roof, Liang Xiaohe would secretly roll her eyes at Zhao Zhenzhu and her children behind Zhao Tianyu and Zhao Qingshan's backs, which would make Zhao Zhenzhu feel uncomfortable.
"Xiaohe won't have any objections. The day before yesterday, when you and Yunyun didn't come back, Xiaohe even asked about you!" Unfortunately, Zhao Tianyu completely missed the implication in Zhao Zhenzhu's words. He enthusiastically spoke well of Liang Xiaohe.
Zhao Tianyu and Liang Xiaohe got married through a free-choice relationship.
Before the wedding, Zhao Qingshan said that Liang Xiaohe was scheming and told Zhao Tianyu to think it over before deciding on the marriage.
Zhao Tianyu didn't believe it at all.
