It's getting late, and I still have to hurry to the Zhang family's house.
There's simply no time to sit down and discuss the divorce again.
Fang Yan kept this matter in mind, thinking that she would find an opportunity to test Zhang Jizhou again and see how likely it was that he would treat her like a soldier in the future.
Regardless of the future, the likelihood of Zhang Jizhou treating his wife like a soldier is still high.
At this moment, he was quite perceptive, like a child who had done something wrong, and dared not utter another word.
Seeing him like this, Fang Yan didn't dare to scold him anymore, and instead went to coax Xiao Yuzai.
It was probably in the afternoon that I was locked in that small, dilapidated room, and it must have frightened me quite a bit.
No matter how much they coaxed him, Xiaoyu insisted on staying with his mother and refused to go to Aunt De's house.
no way.
Fang Yan had no choice but to bring him along. "Then wait a minute, if Grandpa, Grandma, or Uncle start hitting people, remember to dodge!"
"Yes, I know," Little Fish wiped away his tears, stopped crying, and clenched his little fist to show that "If they hit Mommy, I'll hit them back!"
"Someone as weak as you could throw you up a mountain with just one finger, and you still dare to hit people."
Zhang Jizhou felt that Fang Yan was spoiling the child too much, but he didn't dare to say it, so he could only say it to his own little brat.
Little Fish, who had just been coaxed by Fang Yan, turned his head and glared at his own father, "You're the weakling! Your whole family are weaklings!"
The person who used that insult recently learned it from the older siblings next door.
Fang Yan: ...
This father and son must have a tragic fate.
Zhang Jizhou looked disgusted. He secretly wondered if this kid might have intellectual disabilities.
He even curses himself...
Fang Yan glared at him secretly, stopping him from provoking Xiao Yuzai again.
After the "battle" between the father and son subsided, the three of them went out and headed towards the Zhang family's house.
As soon as Fang Yan stepped out of the alley, she saw Zhang Zongde and the village chief standing there.
"We might need Uncle and the village chief to keep things in order later."
So he asked Zhang Zongde and the village chief to go to the Zhang family with them.
Zhang Jizhou explained.
Fang Yan had no idea what Zhang Jizhou wanted to talk to them about on this trip to the Zhang family.
However, seeing Zhang Zongde and the village chief, she vaguely guessed that Aunt De had called him over earlier to tell him about the miserable life the original owner and her child had lived.
He probably wanted to get an explanation for the original owner and the child.
Fang Yan, holding the child, walked over and greeted Zhang Zongde and the village chief.
Then the group of four adults and one child walked together toward the Zhang family's house.
After Gao Dashu met Zhang Jizhou, he told Zhang Laowu and Huang Hongmei that "Lao San is eating now and said he will come over after he finishes eating."
Li Ermei habitually tried to dissuade Huang Hongmei, saying, "Second Uncle has changed too. Before, whenever Mom and Dad called him, no matter what he was doing, he would come right away."
"My second uncle has only been back for two hours since the family split up, and he's already like this. If this goes on for a long time, will he still listen to Mom and Dad and give his allowance to Dad?"
Li Ermei expressed great concern.
What Zhang Laowu and Huang Hongmei cared about most was Zhang Jizhou's allowance.
I specifically called him over tonight to discuss this matter.
"Old man, you can't be soft-hearted later. You have to settle this matter of the allowance."
Huang Hongmei turned to look at Zhang Laowu and gave him some words of advice with concern.
Old Zhang held a pipe, taking deep drags on his cigarette, seemingly deep in thought, without saying a word.
The chubby boy standing to the side couldn't wait to ask the tall tree, "What are the third brother's family having for dinner tonight?"
He had been spoiled rotten by Zhang Laowu and Huang Hongmei. He always felt that he was the eldest in the family. His older brothers and sisters, whether biological or step-siblings, would call him by his first name or follow others by calling him by his birth order.
Gao Dashu thought for a moment, "It smells like stewed meat broth? And noodles too, it smells so good."
The chubby boy immediately objected, pointing his finger at him and yelling, "Is your brain made of pig's brain? Don't you know how to bring back their meat broth and noodles?"
Old Zhang was used to this phenomenon and remained lost in his own thoughts, not uttering a word.
Huang Hongmei, who had given birth to a tall tree, only twisted her face strangely before she stood in the same trench as the big fat boy. She glared angrily at the tall tree and said, "You really are something. Didn't you remind the third brother to bring meat and noodles for your younger brother when you come over later?"
Gao Dashu was numb to his mother's favoritism and pretended not to hear it, ignoring it.
Gao Meijiao pouted and said, "Mom, you only remember Fatty. What about me? I've lost a lot of weight. When Third Brother comes, I want to go with him to his house to eat meat and noodles."
"You worthless thing! If you're going to lose weight, go eat shit! Everything in this house is mine, when did it become your turn to eat it?" Zhang Baocai pushed Gao Meijiao to the ground with force.
"Fatty, are you trying to get yourself killed...?"
The Zhang family was thrown into complete chaos.
Finally, Zhang Laowu slammed his fist on the table and roared a few times before things quieted down.
Scenes like this play out several times a day in the Zhang family.
"You go in first, we'll go in later." When they arrived at the Zhang family's door, Zhang Zongde suddenly grabbed the village chief and said to Zhang Jizhou and Fang Yan.
Fang Yan knew that although Zhang Zongde was old, he had a mischievous heart, so she said nothing and nodded to him, "Thank you for your trouble, Uncle."
"Don't mention the trouble," Zhang Zongde said nonchalantly.
Having lived in the village for so many years, he had practically watched Zhang Laowu grow up and knew the old man's personality.
They knew even more that going in together like this would definitely not lead to any results.
That's why he decided to wait outside with the village chief and let Zhang Jizhou and Fang Yan take the children inside first.
It must be said that Zhang Zongde understood Zhang Laowu very well.
"Third brother, come here."
As soon as Zhang Jizhou and Fang Yan stepped through the gate, Zhang Laowu glanced at them sideways and coldly gave them a command.
Little Fish accidentally met Zhang Laowu's sinister gaze, which startled the little guy so much that he shuddered, quickly turned away, hugged Fang Yan's neck tightly, buried his head in her neck, and dared not look at her again.
Zhang Jizhou took a small step forward, subtly shielding the mother and son behind him, preventing Zhang Laowu's sinister gaze from tormenting them.
"Dad." He didn't rush over as Zhang Laowu had asked.
Instead, he walked at a leisurely pace, matching Fang Yan's walking speed, to the center of the living room.
The Zhang family's house is a newly built building, with a specially designed living room.
Several incense burners were placed against the wall at the far end of the living room.
Zhang Laowu, Huang Hongmei, Zhang Baocai, and others sat in a U-shape.
When Zhang Jizhou and Fang Yan led Xiaoyuzai into the U-shaped area, it gave the impression that they were about to interrogate a criminal.
