While Zhang Zhou was chatting with a few younger generations, his eyes fell on Zhang Zhan.

He and his elder brother rarely see each other, so logically he should have gotten used to this meeting and not have felt much.

But there were turbulent times in between, and not only did the old man suffer a lot, but even the eldest brother, who was full of vigor and vitality at the time, had his forehead frayed.

Zhang Zhan came back the day before the Chinese New Year. Because he was scouting the location, he was pulled by his old man to talk, so there was no need for any sentimentality between the brothers.

The house was brightly lit, and before and after dinner, he was looking at the changes that had taken place in Zhang Zhan over the past few years.

A lot has changed, yet nothing seems to have changed.

Jian Sanrong didn't want to be one of the young people, so he followed his mother to raise the quadruplets.

Among the women, besides Qiao Yu, there are Yan Zi, Zhou's mother and Zhou Ermei.

Zhou Ermei came to Jing City on Tuesday to look for Jin Fengjiao. They talked about business matters. When she got here, she inadvertently heard everyone talking about future development, so she listened quietly.

She originally planned to find a hotel to stay in, and she didn't know how Zhou Dawei found out about her whereabouts. He came to her hotel wearing a military coat and walking in the snow.

She got up late at that time and was about to go to the nearby street stall to see if there was any space available, when she was blocked by a figure.

Then I was brought here to celebrate the New Year.

Second Auntie held her hand and said, "Why didn't you tell me you were in Beijing? You are unfamiliar with the place, and it would be unsafe for a little girl like you to stay in a hotel. Your family has reserved a room for you, so you can stay at home while you are in Beijing.

If you feel uncomfortable, talk to your grandma more."

Then she found that her aunt had prepared a room just for her.

As soon as she turned her head, her aunt left. Zhou's mother said to her gently, "If you feel uncomfortable sleeping, tell your grandma or your aunt the next day. Just treat it as your own home."

"Milk……"

Mother Zhou hugged her and said, "Good girl."

Her marriage to Dawei was in name only. She came to Beijing alone. She...

My aunt and grandma know all this.

They know that it is not easy for girls to live outside, so they are willing to give her a safe haven.

Looking at the incandescent light, Zhou Ermei's eyes felt a little hot.

She decided to buy a house in Beijing after the New Year. With her salary over the years and the money she earned from selling expensive high school textbooks, it would be enough for her.

Qiao Yu asked Yan Zi how her studies were going.

Yan Zi: "It's a bit difficult, but I can keep up. I met some female comrades at school. Some of them were educated youth from the countryside who passed the exam. They are not young anymore. Judging from their figures, they should be married, but I haven't heard them mention it."

Qiao Yu gossiped, "Really? Are there any like-minded male classmates in school?"

Yan Zi knew that her mother-in-law would gossip about these things, and said, "It's true, they all have that intention..."

Zhou's mother sighed, "Fortunately, the locals in my hometown don't get along with the Youth Academy, otherwise, after the college entrance examination was resumed, it would be the children who would suffer."

"Yes, after all, there is no concept of getting a marriage certificate. Once they return to the city, they can disappear at any time. It's hard to find someone to stay in the countryside, so they have to raise the children alone, right?" Although he said so, everything has two sides, and Qiao Yu always maintained a neutral attitude.

Some female educated youth who went to the countryside also suffered persecution. The resumption of the college entrance examination and the elimination of the need for letters of introduction when traveling were undoubtedly a way for some of them to escape from the devil's den.

No wonder things are so turbulent in this era.

Among the group of children, the quadruplets were the most naughty. Now that there was no leader, they seemed to be wilted. They all lay down on the chairs, shook their limbs, and when they felt they had no strength to lift them up, they drooped down again.

They all spoke weakly.

"When will you be back?"

"Hey, didn't Auntie say that? Before school starts."

"I haven't done anything bad, have I? Why am I in the junior class even during the New Year?"

"I don't know. He said he was teaching me a lesson...wasn't it just a fight? Didn't I win? Wasn't I trying to save face for the family?"

Jian San and his wife: …

Perhaps now is the best time to take care of the grandchildren.

Xiao Chunzhi taught Bingbing how to play with the tin frog and Lego. Bingbing followed suit and clapped his hands. When he was happy, he showed his two tiny little teeth, which was very adorable.

Zhou Jun glanced at his children, and the realization fell on Dawei, "When are you going to have a baby?"

David glanced at Zhou Ermei briefly.

When I first met Zhou Ermei, she was rather thin and looked a little malnourished. Now she has become much fuller, with a rosy complexion and bright eyes. She likes to observe people's words and expressions before making decisions.

She was asked for her contact information by gay men on the street, but she never cared. It seemed that she cared nothing about anything except the factory and making money.

But the more focused a woman is, the more attractive she is.

He thought of the night he solved her problem...

If she didn't mean it, what's wrong with confirming this marriage?

Xiaoyong mercilessly exposed his brother's shortcomings: "It's just a name without substance. They sleep in separate rooms. How can they have children?"

Due to housing shortage at home, Zhou Jun simply took his wife and children home to sleep, and he didn't know that Zhou Ermei was alone in a room.

Zhang Zhou patted Dawei on the shoulder in admiration, "You can even hold back on this?"

Zhou Jun raised his thumb and said, "I respect you as a man."

Zhou Siwen asked Xiaoyong: "Does everyone know?"

Xiao Yong shrugged, "It's not a secret."

Zhou Siwen also gave a thumbs up to Daweishu.

Although he didn't know the difference between before and after getting married, it didn't stop him from following the trend.

Zhang Zhan finally got rid of the old man's magic voice and settled down among the men. He put his hand on Zhang Zhou's shoulder and asked, "What are you talking about? Why is it so lively?"

Zhang Zhou raised his glasses and said, "Let's talk about the problem of my nephew Dawei and his niece-in-law sleeping in separate rooms."

"..."

Zhang Zhou: "Brother, you are already an adult. When are you going to bring your sister-in-law home? That way, grandpa won't have to worry about you anymore."

Everyone else couldn't help laughing and enjoyed watching my uncle's jokes.

Zhang Zhan's face froze, he laughed dryly twice, retracted his arm, and said, "Don't use grandpa to pressure me. As an elder, he has other things to worry about besides my marriage. For example, are you safe when you have no news outside? Another example is whether Little Goldfish eats well and sleeps well in the junior class, and whether he is bullied?

He is the one who worries about it.”

"Okay, let's not talk about grandpa. Big brother, when are you going to find a partner?"

"hey-hey."

"Don't smile at me." Zhang Zhou hesitated for a moment, and began to look this big brother up and down, "You don't... really like men, do you?"

Zhang Zhan surrendered and swore to heaven, "I promise, I swear on my own wealth, that I like the opposite sex."

"Why?"

Zhang Zhan: "Ahem, if you haven't met someone you like, you can't force yourself to settle for it, right? Goodbye, for us Zhang family, happiness is the most important thing."

Zhang Zhou remembered what his younger sister said. The turmoil had just begun, and Zhang Zhan suffered a betrayal and a heavy blow in friendship...

At that time, his elder brother was isolated and helpless, and now as a younger brother, it is even more difficult for him to force his elder brother to make a promise.

Don’t encourage others to do good unless you have experienced their suffering.

"It's up to you. You should know how to handle it."

Zhang Zhan smiled playfully: "My dear brother, I promised Grandpa that I would not marry and have children, but you can have more children, which can be regarded as the expansion of the Zhang family..."

"Get lost! You are getting more and more frivolous as you get older. Is it my business to have children? It's my wife who suffers! You don't have anyone to love you, but I do!"

Zhang Zhan shrugged.

He was just joking, why did you take it so seriously?

Not as fun as my nephew Dawei.

Zhang Zhan's eyes fell on Dawei. "I heard that you were forced to sleep in a separate room from your wife? How did it happen? Can you tell me more about it?"
