Although Zhang Jizhou did not respond, Xu Zhimin knew that he was listening, so he continued, "When the paternity test results came out and confirmed that you were Uncle Zhang's child, the old man was abroad, but he was so happy that he cried."
As soon as the trip ended and the plane returned to China, he rushed to your military region. On his way, he found out that you had gone home to recuperate. Without stopping for a moment, he came here again.
Today, I only ate a steamed bun this morning; I haven't eaten anything else on the way here.
Zhang Jizhou washed the vegetables he had picked, stood up, and looked at Xu Zhimin. "I didn't say I didn't acknowledge him."
So there's no need to keep babbling on and on like a loudspeaker, even noisier than cicadas in summer.
After saying that, he lifted his foot to head towards the kitchen, but when he noticed that Xu Zhimin wanted to follow, he glanced at him sideways and said, "We're just having a private conversation, and you want to come and listen?"
Xu Zhimin: ...
Is he such a clueless person?
It wasn't the aroma wafting from the kitchen that made his stomach rumble; he just wanted to take this opportunity to see what Fang Yan had cooked.
Since Zhang Jizhou had already said that, Xu Zhimin was naturally too embarrassed to follow him into the kitchen, so he went instead to walk around the two ovens in the yard.
"Please chop the scallions and cilantro into small pieces for me."
Fang Yan was cutting noodles when she looked up and saw him come in, so she gave him instructions.
Zhang Jizhou placed the washed vegetables on the stove, then went to chop scallions and cilantro. "What do you think of them?"
"Huh?" Fang Yan looked at him, puzzled. "What do you mean?"
"If you don't like them, let them go back tomorrow morning."
Zhang Jizhou had thought about it a lot. If they were to be recognized as relatives, Fang Yan would be the one to maintain the most contact with his family in the future.
After all, he was so engrossed in his duties that sometimes he wouldn't be seen for months at a time.
If Fang Yan's first impression of Grandpa Zhang and his group is not good.
Then there's no need to acknowledge this relationship so early.
Even if he doesn't acknowledge them, it's fine; after all, at his age, he doesn't need to rely on his relatives to survive.
Fang Yan was both amused and exasperated. "Do you think I'm Superman? What can you possibly learn in just a few minutes?"
Zhang Jizhou silently chopped the scallions.
Fang Yan realized that her words and actions regarding the family reunion might directly influence Zhang Jizhou's final decision.
She thought for a moment and then tried to be fair, saying, "Grandpa Zhang is so old, and he traveled such a long way through mountains and rivers, carrying so many documents that prove you are related to him by blood. In any case, their attitude is very sincere, which shows that they really want to take you back."
"Let's take another look."
Zhang Jizhou put the chopped scallions and cilantro into two small bowls and then went to help tend the fire.
I know that Zhang Jizhou doesn't actually object to the idea of acknowledging his relatives; he just wants to learn more about Grandpa Zhang and his family.
This will take time.
Fang Yan didn't rush him, but asked him softly, "Would you like a bowl too?"
Zhang Jizhou smelled the enticing aroma and said, "Mmm."
Fang Yan walked into the courtyard and asked Zhong Huaizheng, "Dr. Zhong, would you like a bowl too?"
Zhong Huaizheng does not have the habit of eating late-night snacks.
As a doctor, he was well aware of the dangers of eating late at night, so he usually didn't eat a proper meal after 9 p.m.
Moreover, he ate a normal meal that evening.
However, after hesitating for two seconds, he nodded and said, "Okay."
