Aunt Guan burst into laughter and said, "Okay, kid, I understand. I won't get nervous with your mother and your mother-in-law anymore."

"Yeah! That's right, they scare themselves."

Outside on the cement ground, Ling Ran was already teaching his godfather how to ride a power-assisted bicycle. Men are naturally interested in machinery, and after an explanation and demonstration, and then a ride himself, he would be able to do it.

Guan Bo shouted loudly that his wife had come home. Zhou's father invited them to dinner, but he refused. "My daughter just came back. She must have a lot of things to understand. There's no rush to drink. Let's wait a few days and sort things out before drinking."

Zhou Xiang sent his godmother out and earnestly instructed his godfather, "Godfather, remember to wear a helmet. Whenever you get on this bike, even for just a minute, you and I must wear a helmet. Also, you are absolutely not allowed to ride if you're drunk. If you've been drinking, ask someone who hasn't drunk to take you home."

Guan Bo nodded repeatedly, "I know, I know. Safety first! I will definitely pay attention and won't cause any trouble for my daughter."

Zhou Xiang nodded, "Yes, you have to be obedient."

Guan Bo chuckled, "Are you treating your godfather like a child?"

"Old children are old children. Old people must be treated like children."

"Okay, I, an old kid, have to ride my bike to take your godmother back home. I have a lot of things to deal with at home."

After Guan Bo and his wife left, Zhong Xiong also left with peace of mind. Wu Haotian took Zhong Lan upstairs. The second floor where Zhong Lan lived was still untouched.

The blind old lady called her son and daughter-in-law away, and only then did Zhou Xiang see that An Wen was pregnant, and it looked like she was five or six months pregnant.

Xiong Mingli and Lu Zhaochong went to the yard.

In the dining room, besides the Zhou family, there were Jiang Weihua and Ling Quan.

When Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran had not returned for five months, Zhou's mother admitted that she could not bear the pressure and yelled at her husband. Only then did Zhou's father realize how much burden his little girl was carrying and how his father and father-in-law had done such immoral things that they were exacting retribution on their descendants.

But he lived a carefree life without knowing anything. He was not worthy of being a father at all and was no different from his own father.

In the past few years, the two rarely quarreled. Zhou Yu and Zhu Hang heard Zhou's mother's hysteria. The two of them confirmed with Zhou's mother over and over again, and they got affirmative answers every time.

Zhou Yu is particularly sad. Her younger sister supports the family and also bears the hatred from the big family. She is often jealous of her younger sister. She also often says that her parents and elder brother are partial to each other. How heartless is she?

Zhu Hang felt that his sister-in-law should not bear all this alone. As members of the Zhou family, they all had the responsibility to contribute. Moreover, his sister-in-law and her husband had been missing for several months with no news, so his eldest brother and third brother should be informed.

After Zhou Niao and Zhou Hua learned that their sister and her husband had been missing for several months, they hurried home. When they arrived home, they found out everything.

Jiang Weihua discovered from the investigation report that his niece had been missing for several months, and he also suspected the Kong family, so he also came to the market town.

Ling Quan and his wife hadn't seen their son and daughter-in-law for a long time, so they came to ask about them whenever they had time. Gradually, they discovered that something was wrong in the Zhou family's atmosphere. Zhou's mother saw that she could no longer hide it, and Ling Ran had also disappeared. The in-laws had the right to know, so Ling Quan and his wife also knew about it.

After hearing everything that happened, Zhou Xiang sighed softly. His mother couldn't stand the pressure. He was thinking too much and scaring himself.

However, she and Ling Ran had not heard from each other for a long time. Who would have known that the flow rate in that formation space was slower than that in the outside world? No wonder Yamazaki Masa had no idea how many years had passed.

My own space is the opposite, it is accelerated.

"Okay, now that you all know, I'll give you a sneak peek. What Ling Ran and I have discovered in the past ten months is very important. It's so important that no one can block our credit. So you don't have to worry. At most, we'll have to confront them head-on. I'm not afraid of facing them head-on, I'm even looking forward to it.

So, if you encounter a problem, be sure to ask me. Don't think you can handle it unless you think you are better than me. "

Mother Zhou couldn't help but point her finger at her daughter's forehead. "Look at how capable you are! Hurry up and contact Ma Gua! He's running out of materials on credit. Everyone thinks you'll never come back. Giving him credit is like throwing meat buns at a dog."

"Then ask him to go to another place to buy credit."

"Come on, it's because you've been away from home for too long. If it weren't for the winter in between, the construction of your building would have stopped long ago."

"Should I go for a walk around the streets? Let those malicious people down and let down those who are ready to make fun of our Zhou family?"

Dong Yunrong nodded immediately. "Come on, go home with me. First, let Zhang Hong, who keeps talking nonsense all day long, feel disappointed."

"She jumped out again?"

"Yes! I gave him a lecture about the subpoena last time, and I was upset. Aren't you taking advantage of this opportunity to show off again?"

"That's what we have to do."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked out of Zhou's house as proudly as fighting cocks.

Ling Quan said goodbye and went home. "We'll go back first. I haven't been in the mood to sort things out at home lately. Let's go back and clean up first. After Ranran and Xiangxiang have sorted things out, we can have a good drink together."

Father Zhou nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you there."

Ling Quan waved his hand, "No need, Ranran will definitely want to go with us, so let Ranran take you."

Ling Ran felt so uncomfortable when he heard his father calling him "Ran Ran" all the time! His father rarely called him like that. He would either call him by his full name or call him "brat".

After the Lings left, Jiang Weihua also decided to return to the capital. Mother Zhou asked him to stay, "Think about it before you come back. She hasn't spoken to you alone yet. If you want to leave, leave tomorrow morning."

Jiang Weihua nodded, "Okay! I'll leave early tomorrow morning."

Zhou Xiang's appearance really scared a lot of people, especially those who had made sarcastic remarks. Some of the brave ones even ran to Zhou's father and mother and said, "This time it's over. Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran have returned safely."

Dong Yunrong, holding her daughter-in-law's hand, deliberately walked past the Li family's door. Zhang Hong's eyes widened. This, this, Zhou Xiang is still alive? Then, then, Ling Ran is also fine? Quick, quick, clean up the living room. We can't let it get smashed again.

Li Jihai held his wife down and said, "What are you doing? Ling Ran wouldn't come and smash things for no reason unless you provoke him in person. You should control your mouth. If your mouth brings disaster to our family, I will beat you up."

The couple was so focused on these things that they didn't notice that their daughter, who had been staying at her parents' house for several days, had run away.

"Zhou Xiang! Zhou Xiang!"

When she was almost at Ling's house, Zhou Xiang heard someone calling her from behind.

Turning around, she saw a woman running up to her quickly, "Zhou Xiang! I'm glad you're okay. Is Brother Ling Ran okay too?"

Zhou Xiang nodded, "It's okay! We're back safely, thank you!"
