Did Zhou Gou not go to the police station to find out what was going on between Zhao Wei and Wang Zhaodi?
He understood.
After Zhou Mingli said that "the two might be having a secret rendezvous, and I didn't hear any struggling or crying for help," Zhou Gou went to the police station to find out more.
Zhou Mingli wasn't the only one present that day; a militiaman was also there! Even if Zhou Mingli was lying, the militiaman couldn't possibly be lying.
Their testimonies were consistent, clearly indicating that Wang Zhaodi and Zhao Wei had gone to meet in secret.
Zhou Gou's expression was also very unpleasant.
But can he divorce Wang Zhaodi?
cannot.
Wang Zhaodi took care of Xiao Huai alone for four years. The hardships and suffering she endured were unimaginable to him, a grown man.
He couldn't possibly divorce Wang Zhaodi without considering their past kindness.
Besides...
Xiao Huai was unwilling, and she herself said not to blame her mother, because the reason this happened was because her mother was taking care of her.
Whether Zhou Gou likes Wang Zhaodi or not is not important; what is important is that Xiao Huai doesn't want them to divorce.
Even for Xiao Huai's sake, we can't get a divorce.
Yesterday at noon, Zhou Gou, with a pale face, held peace talks with Zhao Wei.
Zhao Wei trembled with fear at Zhou Gou's murderous gaze, and naturally he agreed to whatever Zhou Gou said without daring to utter a single unnecessary word.
Since it's a reconciliation, the police will naturally give Zhou Gou face. Once the two families have reached an agreement, the matter will be over.
When Zhou Gou's family returned home, Wang Zhaodi started tidying up like a dutiful wife, working incredibly diligently.
Zhou Huai, who always took care of all the housework at home, seemed flustered and at a loss.
Zhou Gou opened the package he had brought back and called Zhou Huai over with a smile.
"Daughter! Look what delicious food Dad brought you!"
He handed something wrapped in oiled paper to Zhou Huai.
Zhou Huai smelled a sweet fragrance. She was only eight years old and had lived in the countryside for many years, so she had never seen anything nice. She was quickly attracted to it.
Seeing her curiosity, Zhou Gou couldn't help but feel smug. He opened the oil paper, revealing the pastries inside, and pushed them all in front of Zhou Huai. "These are pastries from Daoxiangcun in Beijing! Your Uncle Cheng specially took me to buy them. He said that young girls love to eat them, and his daughter loves them very much. Xiao Huai, come and try some."
Looking at the exquisite pastries, Zhou Huai's fingers twitched, and his mouth unconsciously began to water. "I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Huai felt a chill run down her spine. She turned her head and saw her mother looking at her.
Zhou Huai pursed his lips and said, "It's for Mom, but she's never had any before."
Seeing how filial she was to Wang Zhaodi, Zhou Gou felt a pang of sadness. He smiled and said, "Your mother has some. This was bought especially for you. Eat it."
Zhou Huai hesitated and didn't take it.
Zhou Gou felt a pang of heartache, but he didn't force her to do anything. He simply placed the oil paper package in Zhou Huai's hand and said, "Didn't you get along well with those two kids from the second brother's family? Take this and eat it with them."
Zhou Huai blinked and nodded, "Then I'll deliver it to Aunt Jiang's house."
After saying that, she grabbed the oil paper package and rushed out.
Miaomiao and Yangyang, those two little gluttons, will definitely love this pastry.
It smells so good! She likes it too and wants to eat it.
This was bought by Dad.
Zhou Huai ran faster and faster, and Mu Mu's eyes lit up with excitement.
Zhou Gou watched her run away, shook his head with a wry smile, and when he turned around and saw Wang Zhaodi, the smile on his face disappeared.
He didn't say much to Wang Zhaodi, but went into the house with a calm expression. He took out other local specialties from the capital from his bundle, put the bundle away, and went out.
She was all alone at home. Wang Zhaodi, who was doing housework, threw down the rag in her hand, pouted, and muttered to herself, "Why share the good things with others?"
"Why should a little girl like you, a worthless piece of trash, eat so well? Save her for me so she can give you a son later."
As soon as Wang Zhaodi finished speaking, she slipped to the door and glanced outside.
Zhou Gou has already gone far away.
Her eyes darted around, and before she knew it, she closed the door and rushed to the bundle and backpack that Zhou Gou had brought back, opening them without a word.
The next second, Wang Zhaodi's eyes lit up instantly!
Malted milk powder, White Rabbit candy, various snacks, a jar of Da Hong Pao tea, several notebooks, and a large piece of polyester fabric! On top of the fabric were a watch box and a metal box!
Wang Zhaodi immediately opened the watch box, inside which lay a silver women's watch with a thin chain!
Wang Zhaodi was so excited that she hurriedly put the watch on her wrist.
She raised her hand, looking at it repeatedly, her eyes filled with satisfaction. This little watch made her wrist look absolutely gorgeous! The watch itself was beautiful too!
She was delighted, and without taking off her watch, she went to open the metal box again.
The next second, Wang Zhaodi covered her mouth!
Suppress the scream that was about to burst out.
What did she see?!
What is that!
Passbook!
There were brand new ten-yuan notes pressed under the bankbook!
That's a really thick stack! It must be eight or nine hundred!
There were also quite a few tickets stacked up to the side!
At this moment, Wang Zhaodi had only one thought left—
We've struck it rich!
Wang Zhaodi, afraid that she would shout out in excitement, took a deep breath, suppressed her elation, and opened the savings book.
Wang Zhaodi: "!!!!!!!!!"
Three thousand?!
Zhou Gou has three thousand in savings!!!
Wang Zhaodi felt dizzy and light-footed, as if she were walking on clouds. The enormous amount of wealth shocked her and made her feel like it was not real.
