Chapter 201: Come to the Door (First Update)
After Zhou Fanghua made up her mind, she quickly came up with an idea. She was not a fool. She had been trapped by her own inability to figure things out before. Now that she had listened to Qiu Hongsheng's words, her mind gradually became clear.
If Qiu Hongsheng had discussed this matter with her directly, she might not have been able to think it through clearly. She might even have been overly suspicious, thinking that Qiu Hongsheng was deliberately going against her and did not understand her difficulties.
But because of Qiu Yiming, she had rarely sobered up before, and was not swayed by her past paranoia. Those words were overheard again, and Qiu Yiming chose to marry Fang Yuxin immediately.
The paranoia in her heart never had a chance to come out and control her rationality, which made her clearly understand the current situation and the various benefits that Fang Yuxin's joining the Qiu family would bring to the Qiu family.
Now the status of the Qiu family in the army is not as good as before, and it is time to help. Fang Yuxin is the only second-level wood-type ability user in the entire safe zone. Once she marries into the Qiu family, all the big and small forces in the safe zone will naturally give face to the Qiu family, even General Song and General Li are the same!
At this time, Zhou Fanghua didn't know how great an opportunity the Qiu family had missed out on because of her!
When Qiu Hongsheng and Qiu Yiming came out of the study, Zhou Fanghua had already calmed down. While Qiu Hongsheng was not paying attention, Qiu Yiming took a deep look at Zhou Fanghua, and seeing that her expression was normal and she didn't look angry, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He actually knew when Zhou Fanghua was eavesdropping outside just now. Although Zhou Fanghua's footsteps were very light, they did not really make no sound. The so-called no footsteps were only in terms of the hearing of ordinary people. After awakening, the five senses of the superpowers were improved to a certain extent, so when Zhou Fanghua went upstairs, Qiu Yiming noticed the movement.
But Qiu Hongsheng didn't notice, so he pretended to know nothing. Later, when Qiu Hongsheng mentioned his marriage with Fang Yuxin, he was very worried, fearing that Zhou Fanghua would suddenly rush in.
Fortunately, Zhou Fanghua did not do so. She did not rush into the room until they finished talking about this matter. This abnormal situation gave Qiu Yiming a little expectation in his heart. He always felt that Zhou Fanghua used to like Fang Yuxin very much, but after the end of the world came, she could not accept it for a while, so her emotions became unstable and even hated Fang Yuxin.
Zhou Fanghua's abnormal reaction this time made him unable to help but look forward to it. He hoped that Zhou Fanghua would return to her former self and stop being unreasonable and hysterical.
Of course, what he hoped most was to be able to repair the relationship between Zhou Fanghua and Fang Yuxin.
So after going downstairs, he took a deep look at Zhou Fanghua and observed her expression. From this observation, he felt that no matter what Zhou Fanghua was thinking, her condition had obviously improved compared to before.
This is a good phenomenon!
So after lunch, Qiu Yiming said he had something to say to Zhou Fanghua. Zhou Fanghua naturally had no objection, and Qiu Hongsheng sat aside, grinning and waving his hands to show that he was not interested in the conversation between mother and son.
Qiu Hongsheng had a lot of things to deal with, so he left quickly. Qiu Yiming stayed a little longer to talk with Zhou Fanghua.
Zhou Fanghua sat on the sofa, and Qiu Yiming deliberately went behind her and massaged her shoulders attentively. He learned this technique specifically to show his filial piety, and his technique was quite professional and his strength was well controlled. After a while, Zhou Fanghua squinted her eyes in comfort.
She laughed and scolded, "You only massage my shoulders at times like this." Qiu Yiming quickly begged for mercy, but she didn't take it to heart. She just said, "Okay, stop being a good kid. You're my son, how could I not know you? I'm already satisfied that you have such filial piety. Didn't you say you had something to tell me? Say it now! Don't beat around the bush!"
Qiu Yiming immediately pinched harder, and after a long while he said, "Mom, you heard what Dad and I said in the study just now, what are you thinking?" After he said that, he looked at Zhou Fanghua nervously, waiting for her reaction.
Zhou Fanghua turned her head to look at him, rolled her eyes at him, and said unhappily, "I was wondering why the sun came out from the west today. Our young master Qiu actually took the initiative to please an old woman like me. It turns out it's because of this matter——"
She deliberately lengthened her voice and looked at Qiu Yiming's nervous and helpless expression with a half-smile.
Qiu Yiming was indeed somewhat at a loss. His little trick was exposed, and he immediately felt guilty. He had specially learned massage techniques, and prepared to use them to show his filial piety, but because he was too busy, he rarely helped Zhou Fanghua massage her shoulders. Now that he finally massaged her once, it was still for a purpose to please her, not simply to show filial piety.
After Zhou Fanghua said it directly, he felt extremely guilty and thought that he was really unfilial!
Zhou Fanghua patted his hands with a smile and scolded him, "You said you are not a child anymore, but I said a few words to you and you got nervous. It's not a big deal, so why should you care about it? My son is a man who can do great things. How can he do this kind of work to serve others all day long!"
Although she said this, she still sighed in her heart. She couldn't understand why the son she had raised with so much effort, the pride she had always had, had to be ruined by that girl Fang Yuxin!
It is said that a good man has ambitions and a real man has no problem finding a wife. With Qiu Yiming's conditions, he can find any woman he wants. Why does he have to think about that girl named Fang all day long?
What's so good about that girl? She's not obedient at all!
Just thinking about her decision, she suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart and forced a smile in front of Qiu Yiming.
She didn't want her precious son to continue worrying!
Qiu Yiming carefully looked at her face and saw that she didn't seem very angry, so he quickly said, "You are my mother, and it is only natural for your son to serve you! I didn't have the chance before, but from now on, your son will definitely massage you every day!"
Zhou Fanghua slapped him lightly, and couldn't stop smiling. Although she knew Qiu Yiming would never do it, she was happy in her heart! But when she thought that Qiu Yiming was trying to please her for Fang Yuxin, she felt bad.
Afraid that Qiu Yiming would notice, she smiled again and said, "Don't worry, your mother is not the kind of stubborn old man who is not open-minded. I don't care who you choose. As long as you like her and she treats you well, that's enough. I heard what I said just now, and you don't have to worry. Xinxin is indeed a good child. I was wrong before."
When Qiu Yiming heard her say this, he couldn't stop smiling. Ever since Zhou Fanghua made it clear that she didn't like Fang Yuxin, he rarely smiled at home. This was the first time he smiled from the bottom of his heart.
Zhou Fanghua saw this and felt very mixed emotions. She originally agreed to this marriage because she saw the benefits Fang Yuxin could bring. However, if marrying Fang Yuxin could make Qiu Yiming happy forever, she was willing to accept this daughter-in-law.
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Fanghua was glad that his choice was right.
Qiu Yiming was so happy that, to use a popular saying on the Internet, happiness came too quickly and he couldn't believe it! So, he ignored the strange look in Zhou Fanghua's eyes.
He still had a lot of things to do, so after kneading Zhou Fanghua for a while, Zhou Fanghua sent him out. As soon as he left, Zhou Fanghua returned to her room, picked out a beautiful and expensive set of clothes, and dressed up carefully.
When she fled, she brought her own set of high-end cosmetics with her, but without a professional makeup artist, the makeup she put on herself was not as perfect as before. In addition, she had aged very quickly recently, so the final effect was really unsatisfactory and could not be compared with the past.
She sighed in front of the mirror, but when she thought that everything would change soon, her eyes became firm again. Then, she took an exquisite handbag, put on single shoes and went out to Fang's house.
Because the distance was not far, she walked directly over. She kept a decent smile all the way and even thought about how to talk to the Fang family. However, when she arrived at the door of the Fang family, she was stunned.
There was a lot of laughter coming from the house, but the sound was too noisy for a family like theirs and it was really inappropriate!
And judging from the sounds, there seemed to be quite a few people from the Fang family! They seemed to be having a dinner party.
What's going on?
Zhou Fanghua coughed lightly, then frowned in disgust. She really didn't expect that the Fang family would become like this after just a few days of not seeing them.
However, looking at the vegetables and fruits in the Fang family's yard, she couldn't help but feel jealous. The price of fresh vegetables in the safe zone is ridiculously high now, but even so, the supply still cannot meet the demand!
For example, the Qiu family, although they have a daily quota, they don't have many fresh vegetables to eat. It's not like the Fang family, where the yard has been turned directly into a vegetable garden. It's a bit vulgar, but the greenery is so pleasing!
Plants nowadays are either mutated, or withered and yellowed, becoming listless. It is not so easy to see mutated plants, but there are quite a few plants in the safe zone that have not mutated, but they are all listless and look like they are dying.
Zhou Fanghua looked at the vast expanse of green and couldn't help feeling a little vulgar. She thought that if she married Fang Yuxin, their family would at least not have to worry about fresh vegetables in the future.
This thought suddenly reminded her of the Fang family selling fresh vegetables to General Song, and she felt bad again. Their two families were in-laws, and the Fang family didn't think of their good things, but sold them to General Song instead. This was too much of a betrayal!
Do the Fang family members take the Qiu family seriously?
So she frowned again and waved towards the window, signaling the person at the facade to come out and open the door for her.
Aaaaah, ten o'clock! Do you feel that this time is so familiar~\(^o^)/~
