Zhou Niao finally came back on January 10th. Lu Zhaochong, Jin Chao, Anwen and the blind lady also came back, driving the nanny car.

When Zhou Niao saw his sister, he wanted to hug her, but Ling Ran stopped him, "Brother, she is my wife, no other man is allowed to hug her."

Zhou Niao was surprised, "Sister, I haven't even carried you out yet, how come you're getting married?"

Zhou Xiang pushed Ling Ran away and threw himself into his brother's arms. "Brother, don't listen to him. We didn't have a wedding banquet, we just got a marriage certificate."

Zhou Niao hugged his sister in his arms and smiled at Ling Ran: "This is still my sister, I won't let her marry you."

Ling Ran also smiled, "It's not that she married me, but that I married her."

"Live-in son-in-law?"

Ling Ran nodded. It was obvious that his elder brother's intelligence had changed a lot.

Zhou Niao pulled his sister away from his arms, "Sister, since you've married me, shouldn't I be obedient? If I don't, can I beat him up?"

Zhou Xiang smiled and nodded, "You can beat him up, as much as you want, as long as Big Brother is happy."

Zhou Niao looked at Ling Ran provocatively.

Ling Ran looked at his beloved wife with grievance.

Zhou Xiang pretended not to see and shouted to the blind woman who walked into the yard, "Blind woman!"

"Hey!" The blind lady might be in high spirits because of the good news, and her energy and spirit were obviously much better.

Jin Chao took his luggage and followed An Wen. Seeing Zhou Xiang, he felt a little guilty, "Cousin, Zhou Niao has gone home, and I want to take a vacation too. I, I plan to go to An Wen's house for the New Year."

Zhou Xiang waved his hand. "When you don't have work, you can arrange your own vacation time. Isn't there Lu Zhaochong?"

When Lu Zhaochong heard his name mentioned, he just called her sister-in-law lightly and continued his bodyguard mode.

Zhou Xiang helped the blind old lady into the living room, and Jin Chao took Zhou Niao, Lu Zhaochong and his own luggage upstairs.

Zhou's mother came over with a tea tray, put it down and started chatting with the blind lady.

Zhou wanted to take Anwen to Zhonglan's building in the South Tower to settle down.

An Wen saw Zhong Lan's big belly and excitedly went forward to touch it. Then she was kicked. She asked in surprise, "Is this fetal movement?"

Zhong Lan nodded, "Yes!"

"Your belly is so big, are you going to give birth soon?"

Zhong Lan's face shone with maternal radiance, "Yes! The due date is about half a month away."

"So, are all the things for the baby ready?"

"Everything is ready. Aunt Jiang helped me prepare it. There were a lot of things I didn't understand, so Aunt Jiang and Sister Zhou Yu taught me. Luckily, I came back with them. I'm not nervous at all."

An Wen was also relieved. Zhong Lan insisted on having a child out of wedlock, and her family was unreliable. There was no one to take care of her, which was really worrying. Zhou wanted to bring her back because he was worried that it would be unsafe for Zhong Lan to give birth alone outside, right?

Taking Anwen up to the third floor, Anwen chose to live in the second bedroom. Zhou Xiang helped her put on the quilt cover and make the bed, then went downstairs and let her chat with Zhong Lan.

The blind lady said she wanted to sleep in the children's room next to the living room, so Zhou Xiang agreed to her request. Going up and down the stairs was not convenient for the blind lady with poor eyesight.

After laying out the tatami in the children's room, Jin Chao called her aside to talk. "Cousin, I've also passed my driver's license test. I, I want to borrow a car."

"Where is An Wen's family from?"

"From Shang County, Henan Province."

"Well! It's not far, let's drive! We have three cars at home! You can take any one of them. But, you're in such a hurry, are you planning to leave tomorrow?"

"Yes! I'll get acquainted with the area first, find a place to stay, and then get engaged. If possible, I'd like to hold a wedding banquet before the New Year."

It is a good idea to take three steps in succession, and they should all happen in the twelfth lunar month, which is full of good days.

"Will the blind lady follow?"

"I went, but my mother didn't go with me. I was unsure about what to do. There were many customs that I didn't understand. Even if there were some regional differences, my mother could understand what the customs were."

"How about this! I'll ask Ling Ran to send someone to go with you and help run errands. We can take turns driving along the way."

Jin Chao's face was filled with joy, "Thank you, cousin."

"You're welcome! By the way, are you planning on having the party there?"

"Yes! Your family is the only guest we're willing to invite here, so we'll get married there and hold the wedding banquet there."

If the man has no relatives when getting married, "that's not acceptable! It will make people look down on you.

"Brother Chao, if the man doesn't visit his relatives, the woman will not only look down on him but will also feel uncomfortable. Even if Anwen's parents are open-minded, they can't accept that the man doesn't visit his relatives.

If you really have a wedding date set, call us and we'll drive over. It's impossible for everyone to go, but we'll definitely have two tables of people."

Jin Chao's eyes turned red. He had also thought about the embarrassment of the man having no relatives, but he couldn't open his mouth. Since his cousin took the initiative to speak, he didn't refuse.

"Thank you, cousin!"

"Oh! I told you you're welcome."

This is what the blind lady told Zhou's mother. Zhou's mother was concerned about the two pregnant women at home and she couldn't be separated. "When the time comes, ask Xiangxiang to bring someone. The scene must be held up. Otherwise, Ah Chao will be unable to hold his head up when he visits his mother-in-law's house in the future."

"Okay, okay! Tell Xiang Xiang to go, and we won't be afraid anymore."

Zhou wanted to ask Ling Ran for help, so Ling Ran naturally lent him the money unconditionally. "Ask Xia Fei and Tian Cheng. They're quite clever, and more people will help speed things up."

"Is this a borrow one get one free deal?" Zhou Xiang joked.

Ling Ran pinched her nose and said, "You can obviously give them orders directly. After all, you are the boss."

"That's different. They still obey you, the boss."

Zhou Niao was watching eagerly from the side. When he saw his sister finished speaking, he immediately pulled her away. This was his sister.

Ling Ran looked up at the sky helplessly. He planned to wait until Jin Chao and the others left tomorrow and the house became quiet, and then he would give the medicine to his brother-in-law immediately.

Zhou Xiang accompanied his elder brother and listened to him talk about his experiences outside. However, Zhou Xiang frowned and said, "Brother, how many times have you really seen the woman you painted?"

Zhou Niao nodded, "Yes! I've seen him three or four times."

"Where have you seen it before? Is the interval long or short?"

Zhou Niao thought for a moment, "Well, before we planned to go out for field research, we met once at the end of July, and then once at the end of August, September, and October. After that, we didn't see each other again."

Zhou Xiang frowned. "See her once a month?" What did that mean? "Brother, you see her in different places, right?"

"Yes! The first time I saw her outside the capital, she smiled at me! The second time I saw her, I thought she was following me on purpose. The third time I saw her, I felt she was so kind. She no longer looked for me, but I, I kind of missed her."

Zhou Xiang cursed the woman thousands of times in his heart. Is this a honey trap? But, wouldn't you feel ashamed to use a honey trap on someone with a low IQ?

"Brother, let me tell you, she's a bad woman. Her family has a grudge against ours. Don't even think about her."

Zhou Niao's face fell, "Okay! I don't want to think about it anymore."

Zhou Xiang felt very sad to see his elder brother like this, but he could only be cruel and not comfort him, as he had no way to comfort him.
