Chapter 302 Fortunately, he had foresight and asked for leave in advance
The leaves of the sycamore tree rustled in the setting sun. Zhong Heyang squatted at the doorstep and carried the drunk Lin Ziqiu on his back.
Lin Ziqiu was quite drunk. She had fallen asleep at first, but woke up later and insisted on continuing to drink with them.
The result was that I drank so much that I vomited.
The wind outside was a little cold. She rubbed her head against the man's shoulder and hummed twice as if complaining.
"Hold on tight."
The old man had a good alcohol tolerance. Zhong Heyang was half drunk, but he was still very sober at the moment.
Fortunately, he had the foresight to ask for leave in advance.
Halfway through the walk, Lin Ziqiu suddenly gritted Zhong Heyang's ear bone with her teeth, and her falling hair made his Adam's apple itchy.
"Your heart is beating so loudly."
Her hands were not idle either. It was cold outside, so she kept reaching into the man's clothes.
Zhong Heyang suddenly loosened his hand that was supporting her, and Lin Ziqiu slid down half an inch with an exclamation, but was caught steadily again.
He tried to stay rational, "Wife, we are still outside, don't touch me."
Lin Ziqiu groaned twice and bit his ear as punishment, "I'll teach you how to be mean to me!"
The wind was mixed with the pleasant scent of jasmine from the girl's hair. Zhong Heyang felt that no amount of wine today could compare to the intoxication he felt at the moment.
He whispered softly, "How dare I be mean to you?"
"If you want to touch it, can we go home and touch it later?"
Lin Ziqiu seemed to wake up for a moment and understood what he said. After she came to her senses, she was so embarrassed that she immediately hid her head behind his back.
Zhong Heyang noticed her reaction, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and he quickened his pace to go home.
As soon as she entered the house, Li Guixiang smelled alcohol on them. "Where did you get so drunk?"
Zhong Heyang tightened his arms, "At grandpa's place."
Li Guixiang suddenly remembered something and her face changed drastically, "Xiao Qiu is pregnant now. No matter how serious the matter is, she can't ignore her health and drink so much! Why don't you stop her!"
Pregnant?
Zhong Heyang thought he had heard it wrong, "Mom, who told you she was pregnant?"
Li Guixiang punched him on the arm, "Did you drink so much that your brain went haywire?"
"Xiao Qiu vomited like that that day. Didn't you say you didn't know until you went to Su City?"
Zhong Heyang was completely confused, "Mom! You must be mistaken! I never told you that Xiaoqiu was pregnant! She is not pregnant!"
"ah?"
Li Guixiang was horrified, "This... This is impossible!"
The grandson she had been thinking about so much turned out to be a mistake?
Zhong Heyang saw his grandmother's lost look and didn't want to continue to pour cold water on her. "Mom, I know you are anxious to have a grandson, but this kind of thing is also fate, you can't rush it."
After that, he walked in, "I'll carry her upstairs, we won't have dinner, so we don't have to make ours."
Li Guixiang stood there in a daze, and the regret in her heart that her granddaughter-in-law was not pregnant at all could not be relieved for a long time.
On the second floor, Zhong Heyang had just put the person on the bed when Lin Ziqiu grabbed his neck.
"What's wrong?"
The man had a deep, magnetic voice.
Lin Ziqiu had lost her mind at this moment and was drunk. She pounced on the man and tried to unbutton his clothes.
But she couldn't untie it for a long time.
Finally she got so angry that she bit it with her teeth.
Zhong Heyang let her do what she wanted. When she really bit open the discipline button on his military uniform, he grabbed her wrist that was touching her.
"Wife, do you know what the punishment is for destroying the military appearance?"
What responded to him was tears rolling into his collar, soaking his vest with salty taste.
"Are you going to bully me too?"
The drunkenness mixed with the girl's sobbing burned his back.
Zhong Heyang felt as if his heart was stabbed hard by something for a moment. He lowered his head and kissed the tears that were sliding down the corners of the girl's eyes.
"Wife, did someone bully you? Tell me, your husband will support you."
Lin Ziqiu shook her head and hooked her hands around the man's neck. Her tearful look made the man feel distressed. "Will you fall in love with someone else in the future?"
She thought of her mother, who must have been delighted at the time, thinking she had married a good man, but had no idea that it was a trap carefully prepared for her from the very beginning.
Lin Dahai is clearly a complete Phoenix man.
Zhong Heyang's heart trembled. He held the girl's hand, placed it on his chest, and said solemnly, "I promise you that both my body and my heart will always belong to you. There will be no room for anyone else."
As if she had heard a satisfactory answer, Lin Ziqiu's tense nerves were completely released at this moment, and she relaxed completely, "If you betray me..."
"I will make sure you never see me again."
Zhong Heyang's eyes were filled with affection, "You are as important as the motherland. I will never betray you."
When the morning light climbed onto the windowsill, Lin Ziqiu opened her eyes. She rubbed her temples with a headache, and then she realized that she was at home.
She turned sideways and found a small box on the bedside.
I opened it curiously and found a jasmine hairpin inside.
Judging from the material, it seems to be made of copper.
Lin Ziqiu's first reaction was that this was modified from a bullet shell.
The copper-yellow shell was sanded off with a layer of military green paint to reveal the original honey-yellow metal color.
Three aluminum bullet heads are embedded in the groove at the bottom, reflecting fine snow rays in the sunlight, just like dewy jasmine buds.
There was also a piece of paper under the box with a row of flamboyantly written words on it.
"If you like it, wear it. If you don't like it, I'll give you something else next time."
Zhong Heyang had been preparing for this gift for a long time. Their marriage was too hasty and sudden, so he had never given Lin Ziqiu any special gifts.
He felt that the ones sold on the market lacked sincerity, so he made this hairpin himself using bullet shells.
As for why it is jasmine.
Because ever since he built a 'small bathhouse' for his wife, she would have a faint scent of jasmine on her body every time she took a bath.
So he thought his wife liked jasmine very much.
Lin Ziqiu held the hairpin in her hand and for a moment felt it weighed a thousand pounds. No one had ever given her such a special gift.
More than liking him, she was so moved that she almost cried.
Zhong Xuexi's voice came from outside, "Sister-in-law, are you awake? Get up and have breakfast!"
She didn't want to come up at first, but grandma said they didn't eat last night and they would be starving.
Although my granddaughter-in-law is not pregnant, she still needs to take good care of herself and prepare for the future.
Lin Ziqiu came back to his senses and said, "I'll be down right away."
In order to match the hairpin, she specially tied up her hair.
As soon as I went downstairs, my sister-in-law spotted me and asked, "Oh, sister-in-law, this hairpin is so beautiful! Who gave it to you?"
Lin Ziqiu sat down. On the dining table were rice porridge and pickled vegetables and eggs that her mother-in-law had already prepared.
She blushed a little and said, "Your brother gave it to me."
Zhong Xuexi continued to joke, "I have never seen this style before, could it be that he made it himself?"
"Well, it should be."
Lin Ziqiu couldn't help but raise his hand and touch it. He was overwhelmed with joy and was thinking about what to give in return.
Hearing this, Li Guixiang kindly reminded: "Xiao Qiu, although you are still young, you should also pay more attention to your health. Take a good rest after drinking. Only by keeping your body healthy can you give birth to a healthy baby."
After saying this, Lin Ziqiu was so ashamed that she wished she could find a hole to crawl into. Although what he said made sense, but...but she always felt that it was a bit embarrassing to talk about this kind of thing in public.
Especially since there is an innocent sister-in-law at home.
"Yes, I understand."
Fearing that her mother-in-law would continue to "teach", Lin Ziqiu had no choice but to lower her head and agree.
Li Guixiang then gave up. She was also thinking of Zhong Xueyuan's child. The lesson from the past was there, so she had to take it seriously.
An unhealthy child will not only make the child suffer, but may also destroy the whole family.
···
Suzhou City.
Shen Xiu came out of the Shen family with her husband Meng Zhiwei. Ruan Qing, who was waiting for them outside, hurried over to them, "Aunt Shen, they didn't bully you, did they?"
Originally, she wanted to follow in, but was stopped by Shen Xiu. This was the last face left for the Shen family.
Shen Xiu shook her head and said, "Let's go back."
Before leaving, Shen Xiu took a last look at the Shen family's old house. She would never come back here again.
Meng Zhiwei was still not satisfied, "It's just too cheap for them."
Shen Xiu comforted him, "Shen Zimo got beaten, but it wasn't too bad. Didn't he fight back?"
Meng Zhiwei raised his eyebrows, "Do you think he has a chance to fight back in front of me?"
Shen Xiu chuckled and said, "You, you still want to pretend to be awesome even at your age, right?"
"Why do you say I'm pretending to be awesome? Am I not awesome?"
Ruan Qing on the side joked: "Uncle Fang is amazing!"
"Qingqing still has good taste!" Meng Zhiwei smiled without blushing.
Shen Xiu laughed helplessly, "You!"
"Auntie!"
Behind him was Song Hui who was chasing after him.
He stepped forward and asked, "Aunt, I know you've been wronged, but do you really have to be so determined?"
"I'm saying, are you annoying? Don't you understand what I'm saying? Auntie Chen doesn't even bother to bother with you guys, what else do you want? Do you want to punch me too?"
Ruan Qing retorted impatiently.
Shen Xiu pursed her lips and said in a neutral voice: "Xiao Hui, if you call me aunt, I will naturally recognize you as my nephew, but if you come to persuade me, don't blame me for not giving you face."
Song Hui choked and didn't dare to force her any further, "Then...what about Xiao Qiu? Can't you help persuade her?"
"Xiao Hui, everyone has their own life. You've seen how they treated me in exchange for my compromise. Do you really think that Xiao Qiu's return here is for her own good?"
After a pause, she continued, "Whether a person is happy or not does not depend on how others have paved the way for her, but on how she wants to live her life."
"No one has the right to control other people's lives." After returning to the guesthouse, Shen Xiu originally planned to go back the next day, but Huang Bin said he wanted to play for a few more days.
He used to be in the army all year round and even had very few holidays. Now he has difficulty walking and it will be difficult for him to travel far in the future. Taking this into consideration, Shen Xiu and others decided to follow his will.
···
On the night that Zhong Heyang delivered the hairpin, as soon as he got home he found Lin Ziqiu cooking a large table of dishes.
Most of them are his favorite foods.
"Brother, thanks to you, we are all blessed with a delicious meal today!"
Zhong Xuexi happily set the table, and Zhao Huaian also came.
The two of them got off work together. Seeing that her grandson's wife had cooked so many delicious dishes today, Li Guixiang insisted on inviting him to have dinner at home.
There is only half a month left until their wedding.
She had long regarded Zhao Huaian as a family member.
Seeing that there were guests at home, Zhong Heyang greeted his future brother-in-law Zhao Huaian and went straight into the kitchen.
Lin Ziqiu was cooking the last dish, spicy and sour shredded cabbage.
"You're back! I've been waiting for you to start dinner."
Zhong Heyang hugged her from behind and saw the hairpin in her hair. He was delighted. He lowered his head and rubbed her neck. "Wife, I gave you a gift not because I want you to give me anything in return. I just want you to be happy."
Feeling his hot breath on her neck, Lin Ziqiu felt a little itchy. She couldn't help but shrink her neck and said with a smile, "I'm very happy." Cooking soup for the one you love is also a happy thing.
She nudged the man behind her with her elbow and said, "Go wash your hands."
Zhong Heyang quickly kissed her on the cheek, "Okay."
Zhong Xuexi and Zhao Huaian sat on one side and kept picking food for him. "We have to eat more. When I get married, it won't be so easy to enjoy my sister-in-law's cooking."
Lin Ziqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "If you want to eat, come home anytime and your sister-in-law will make it for you."
Zhong Xuexi deliberately glanced at her brother and said, "I'm afraid my brother will say something about me."
"What can he say about you? You are his little sister. Even if you get married, you will always be his sister!"
Lin Ziqiu picked up a piece of pork ribs for her and turned to ask Zhong Heyang, "Really?"
