After everyone left, Zhou wanted to ask Zhu Hang if he blamed her.

Zhu Hang shook his head. "I can't blame you. You're doing this for our own good. Haotian and I have been enjoying the fruits of our labor for a long time. It's time to leave. If we leave, they will surely disperse. It's better to disperse. After they disperse, as you said, the conflict will become an internal family conflict. It's time for those couples to have some good friction with each other."

Wu Haotian also expressed his opinion, "I have no objection. It's best to divide it up so that I don't feel ashamed every time I take the money."

"Are you insinuating this?"

Wu Haotian waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, I'm doing very well in the real estate company, and you feel comfortable taking the money. I'm absolutely not making any insinuations."

Zhou Xiang disagreed, "Let's do this for now! When you get married, you can come back and talk to me confidently about this."

Wu Haotian didn't believe it, "Impossible, Zhong Lan and I are not that kind of people."

"Leave it to time! Think about it now. The people upstairs really need your care, but you have to leave on the first few days of the new year, or at the latest on the 15th. How do you feel?"

Wu Haotian was stunned by this reminder. After the New Year, could he bear to leave?

"Are you stupid? If something like this happens a few times, you'll feel like I'm doing nothing while you're being kept busy, and your dissatisfaction will ferment.

Well, while I can still exploit you, I'll exploit you as much as I can!"

Zhou Xiang turned to leave, and Ling Ran quickly followed him, "How about assigning him a deputy manager so that he can get away when his family needs him."

"Okay! If you have someone, send them over. First assign a vice president, so that if things really get to that point, there will be someone to take over."

Aunt Wang upstairs was bored and deliberately eavesdropped on the meeting Zhu Hang was holding. Unexpectedly, it was a meeting on dividing industries.

When she arrived at Zhonglan's place, she learned from Zhou's mother, "These six people are really loyal people. It's a pity that with a small family, there will be small frictions. It's better to separate early so that the relationship can be maintained."

Mother Zhou looked at Zhonglan before answering Aunt Wang, "Sometimes, when a woman talks about something a man doesn't care about enough, he starts to pay attention. When he pays attention, he'll notice something. His heart, involuntarily, changes as time goes by.

So, there is a saying that time changes everything, including your heart that you try hard to control at the origin!

Aunt Wang sighed, "Yes! When I first got married, I wanted to keep my feelings for my parents' home and told myself that my parents' home was my home.

But after having children, things change. Where the children are is your home.

When the children grow up, go out to work or even get married, things change again. Wherever the husband is, that is your home.

These three changes in my heart were brought about by time."

An Wen, who was teasing the child, paused when she heard this. Was it because she had already mentally shifted her family's location regarding the dowry that she felt her parents were too demanding, leading to a falling out with them? Regardless, her parents had raised her after all, and the excessive dowry was also the product of manipulation by her aunts.

The blind lady held her hand and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Only when you raise a child will you understand the kindness of your parents. You will understand. Once you understand, you will change your mind. Once you figure it out, go home and see your parents. There is no parent who won't forgive their child."

An Wen nodded gently.

While Zhou's mother was free, the blind lady pulled her aside to talk.

When Zhou's mother heard that she was talking about Niao Niao's marriage, she shook her head and said, "I have decided not to care about it. He is not the ignorant child he used to be. After he wakes up, he has his own ideas. If I push him too hard, there will be conflicts and complaints, and even ruin his beloved painting career.

In the end, what can I get? He likes to be free and unrestrained, so let him be, I can't control him."

The blind lady didn't expect to get such an answer. She sighed and said, "Children are all debts!"

"I just want my family to be safe and happy now. I don't ask for anything else." Zhou's mother said softly. She was afraid that asking for too much would backfire. Just being safe and sound is enough! That's enough!

It's already the 26th, and Zhou wants to ask Ling Ran to ask Lu Jin if he is going back to his hometown?

Ling Ran picked up his phone and called the front yard. Lu Jin said that life was too hard for their family in winter, and the mountain roads were not easy to walk on. He was reluctant to let Zhenzhen be exposed to such bad conditions on her first visit to his house, so he decided to wait until summer to come back.

Since he wasn't coming back, Zhou Xiang didn't need to prepare anything for him. She planned to go to her godparents' house to give them a New Year's gift. It was her first year after all! She had to show off.

Ling Ran, the follower, naturally had to go, and he was also actively arranging the New Year gifts.

"Wife, what are you going to give me? Cigarettes, alcohol, tea? Meat or fish?"

"Fruit wine, big fish, and some pork belly!"

Ling Ran held out his hand, "Give me the money. I'll go to the street first to see if there's any pork belly."

"If you don't have any, you can buy something else. Take your pick. Also, buy two packs of cigarettes and a pound of tea."

He took out money while talking and handed it to him without even looking at it.

Ling Ran took the money, agreed and ran away.

Zhu Hang also went to the street with a basket. He wanted to buy some New Year's goods in small quantities and send them to his mother in the north.

Zhou's mother could only ask her eldest cousin's wife to help her knead the dough and prepare to make dumplings.

Jin Chao suggested that he chop the vegetables, so Zhou's mother let him do it and asked the eldest and third sons to help peel onions, ginger, garlic and wash the vegetables.

An Wen also came to help. Although there were not as many people as last year, at least there were people to help.

Ling Ran bought half a rack of spareribs, which were selling slowly at the moment because there was not much meat on them.

When he opened the trunk of the car, he found a box of wine, two packs of cigarettes, and spare ribs. Zhou Xiang thought about it, and a big fish weighing more than 20 kilograms fell next to the spare ribs.
