Yadan knew that it was very difficult to find such a family of in-laws, so she studied hard during college, rented a house nearby, and sent her two children to school.

Fortunately, her grandmother left her enough money, and the university also gave her money every month. She and her children lived frugally and saved the money.

After graduating from college, she went to work at a local bank and bought a house in the local area. Only after she officially settled down did she begin to actively contact the Zhou family.

I write a letter to say hello and buy some tea to send to Aunt Qiao every year.

It's not that she hasn't thought about finding a partner, but there are many things to consider when it comes to marriage. First of all, she has to look at the man's family, his financial situation, his work, how many children he has, and what kind of person he is.

She can promise not to be harsh on her stepson, but can a remarried man guarantee that?

Rather than remarrying and engaging in intrigue and calculation with the other party, she might as well stay single and raise her two children.

After her job became stable, she went on several blind dates, but eventually she became indifferent to the scheming in the eyes of others and lived alone with her two children.

Fortunately, there were no more setbacks in the second half of my life.

I have some contact with my mother's family, but not much.

As for her ex-husband Wang Gui, he was afraid that she and her children would get close to him and ask for living expenses, so he never asked about where she and her children were going. He soon got married again, and after marriage he and his wife were in love and soon had a child.

This wife was more efficient than she was, and she controlled the power at home and influenced Wang Gui's thoughts. When her husband's family wanted to come to her house to cause trouble, she didn't give them any face and kicked them out.

She occasionally thought back to how her first marriage ended in divorce. It was probably because the man dominated everything in the marriage and determined the situation from the beginning, which led to conflicts when she had the opportunity.

If the college entrance examination had not been reinstated, she might have been able to continue living with Wang Gui.

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in life.

She is very satisfied with her current life and is very grateful for what her grandmother fought for her.

Every year during the Qingming Festival and the New Year, I would go back to sweep my grandparents’ graves, as part of my filial duty.

…

In 1987, a lot of things happened.

Generally, pagers or pagers became popular. People with better conditions started using mobile phones, especially in big cities. People holding mobile phones would attract the attention of passers-by and would also be noticed when visiting relatives and friends, which aroused the vanity of many people.

If you don’t do well in the outside world, it all depends on whether you have a mobile phone.

Qiao Yu also bought one because she often travels to the Northeast and the islands.

If you are away from home, you should let your family know that you are safe, right?

In the past it was the telegraph, then it was upgraded to the telephone, and now it is the mobile phone.

What was different from other people was that, while others treated their cell phones as treasures, she would occasionally use something else to crack the walnuts when her fingertips hurt from cracking them.

Zhou's mother had seen her cracking walnuts with a cell phone.

Zhou's mother's heart was beating wildly. "Oh my god, that thing is good for cracking walnuts, but you have to be careful. It costs a lot of money to buy it."

Qiao Yu nodded nonchalantly, "What are you afraid of? This thing works well."

"If you want to eat walnuts, you can use the crack in the door."

"Door crack...too lazy to get up."

"What's wrong? I rarely see you being so lazy. You were only like this when I needed you to cook."

Qiao Yu lay lazily on the sofa, not saying a word.

Zhou's mother didn't ask any more questions.

It wasn't until Dawei came back and Xiaoyong's movie was released that her laziness gradually faded away.

Xiaoyong's movie had to be watched in the cinema. As soon as it was released, Qiao Yu and Xiao Jinyu got up early and lined up to buy tickets.

Fortunately, the mother and daughter had the foresight to queue up early.

In just one morning, all major cinemas in Beijing sold out the movie about guerrillas.

Qiao Yu went to see it. Although she was still very interested in musicals and TV dramas, her son had good acting skills and was tall and handsome. He made many of the lesbians in the theater blush and they didn't even bother to get intimate with each other.

The young, unmarried lesbians started discussing in low voices after leaving the cinema.

"What's the name of the actor who rushed to the front, sang the loudest, and shed the most tears?"

"I saw it. It was shown at the end of the film. His name is Zhou Xiaoyong."

"He's so handsome..."

“I wonder if I can get the contact information.”

"I'm a returnee. What do you, a small hotel waiter, think about?"

"I want to, don't you?"

"Haha, don't bother me. Okay, okay, I admit it. I also want to..."

The little goldfish stuffed handfuls of the remaining popcorn into his mouth, glanced at the noisy female comrades, and finally looked at Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu opened the little goldfish's lower jaw and said, "Look ahead when you walk. Why are you looking at me?"

After the little goldfish finished eating the popcorn, he asked, "Fifth Brother is joining the crew again?"

"Yeah, busier than me."

Little Goldfish: "Mom, don't you worry about fifth brother's marriage?"

"In our family, we are destined to marry and have children late...ah." Qiao Yu suddenly remembered something and began to worry again.

"What's wrong, Mom? Are you worried about something? Tell me."

"Go away. Can you solve my problems?"

"I'm 18 now. I've graduated from high school and I'm going to college."

"You are still a brat. In my eyes, you will always be a brat."

"..."

Qiao Yu hesitated about how to mention this matter to Lao Zhou.

David returned to China.

After studying for four years, he returned to China with nothing and was still supported by his wife.

The family held a celebration banquet, and Zhou Jun took a day off to cook a table full of dishes for his family.

After Zhou Jun took office as the chef of the Grand Hall, China has actively developed diplomacy in recent years. Zhou Jun also began to receive leaders from other countries. Although he has never appeared on TV, he has also been in front of leaders of other countries.

The banquets he prepared have spread throughout the upper class in Beijing and have also won praise from leaders of other countries. This is based on the fact that the tastes of people in each country are different.

It is a great affirmation of his ability.

At the banquet, Dawei toasted everyone one by one. When it was Xiaojinyu's turn, he saw that she was also drinking. She raised her eyebrows slightly and couldn't help but look at Qiao Yu.

After getting Qiao Yu's nod, Dawei and his brothers and sisters started drinking.

At night, the room was adequate.

But everyone made excuses and left Dawei to Zhou Ermei.

Zhou Ermei had no choice but to help the drunkard back to his room.

Just as she untied his tie and was about to leave, Dawei stood up and grabbed her wrists.

"Second sister."

"Um?"

"You raised me for four years, and I am so grateful to you. For my face, you didn't mention the fact that you raised me to anyone else, and I really have no way to repay you..." No way.

In order to save her face, she never mentioned this matter to her family, but who is he?

I have already told my family about my life as a freeloader.

His family is just waiting for him to eat their free meals completely.

"Oh? You want to?"

"I can only promise you my body."

Zhou Ermei realized that the other party was only interested in her body.

She has come into contact with many people and knows the deep meaning behind the way men look at her.

She is naturally good-looking, after all, her father and second uncle are brothers.

Zhou Zeguo married Zhou Dasao at first because Zhou Dasao's face was well-known in the surrounding villages.

So of the three children of the first wife, except Zhou Qiang, who picked out the shortcomings of his parents, Zhou Ermei and Zhou Liang all looked good. It's just that they were not valued at that time, and they were too hungry and thin, and they didn't have the charm they have now.

Even after Zhou Ermei put on the custom-made suit, she couldn't hide her curvy figure and capable temperament.

The short hair cut to the ears is for convenience, but it also reveals the face more perfectly. It is elegant and decent, and the more you look at it, the more pleasing it is to the eye.

Even the entrepreneurs in Hong Kong decided to cooperate with her only after seeing her good looks.
