Chapter 288 You Are Not Welcome in My Home
Cui Shufen glared at the sharp-tongued Zhou Ling: "It was clearly your eldest sister who made up the story. The child died of illness. She didn't want to live with your eldest brother-in-law anymore, so she came back and told us that the child was thrown to death by her grandmother..."
After hearing what her mother said, Zhou Xia couldn't help laughing out loud.
Cui Shufen believed whatever the Leng family said, but she didn't believe a word of her own daughter.
Zhou Xia smiled with tears in the corners of her eyes. She wiped her eyes, pushed Cui Shufen away, and walked out with her two daughters.
"You damn girl, come back here?"
Cui Shufen wanted to chase Zhou Xia, but was stopped by Zhou Ling.
"Mom, stop making trouble. I won't pay any attention to you if you continue to make trouble..."
Now Cui Shufen can't rely on any of her four sons, and Zhou Xia can forget about it. Now the only person who can ask about their affairs is Zhou Ling.
"you?"
Zhou Ling stamped her feet in anger. She turned around and closed the door, blocking it with her body and said, "Mom, please stop making trouble."
Cui Shufen was so angry that she pointed at Zhou Ling and cursed at her.
Zhou Ling was very angry, but she couldn't do anything about Cui Shufen.
Cui Shufen was tired of scolding and wanted to go find Zhou Xia again.
Zhou Ling couldn't bear it anymore and she finally exploded.
"You go ahead, my eldest sister is at my eldest brother's house!"
Cui Shufen froze, she looked at Zhou Ling and snorted coldly.
Zhou Ling sighed: "From now on, I will no longer ask you about your relationship with my dad. Do whatever you want!"
"you?"
Zhou Ling slowly closed her eyes and made way for the door. Cui Shufen froze in place, not moving.
Zhao Min came back with the child and frowned when he saw the faces of the mother and daughter.
"What's going on?"
Cui Shufen said nothing and just walked away.
Zhou Ling sat down on the edge of the kang listlessly and told Zhao Min what had just happened.
Zhao Min frowned: "Don't be angry, let's go to Big Brother's house to see Big Sister..."
Zhou Ling nodded, and the couple locked the door and took the child to Zhou Yong's house.
When the couple came, the Li family's courtyard became very lively.
"Sister-in-law, are you home?"
Zhou Yong, Chen Pingliang, Wei Guoan and Li Baotian were sitting in the yard chatting, Li Caiyun, Zhang Guifang and Zhou Xia were sitting under the eaves talking, Li Jingan and Zhou Keyin were playing with Leng Yue and Leng Qiu.
Li Caiyun responded with a smile, and hurriedly asked Li Jingan and Zhou Kerou to go into the house to get a small stool.
Zhou Ling went after the woman, Zhao Min went after the man, and his child went to play with Li Jingan and Zhou Kerou.
The street lights came on, Chen Pingliang looked at the time and prepared to go back.
"Brother Chen, don't go back."
Chen Pingliang shook his head: "There is a morning meeting tomorrow."
Zhou Yong looked at Wei Guoan and said, "I'm going to visit some friends tomorrow, I'll come back in a few days..."
Seeing this, Zhou Yong did not try to keep them. Chen Pingliang, Wei Guoan and the Li family said goodbye and drove back.
"It's getting late, let's go home!"
Chen Pingliang, Wei Guoan and Zhou Ling finally went home.
"Go back."
This was said by Zhou Yong.
Zhou Ling looked at Zhou Xia and said, "Sister, I'll come see you tomorrow."
Zhou Xia nodded, and Zhou Ling and Zhao Min took the children back home.
Zhou Yong and his group entered the yard and Li Baotian locked the gate.
"Brother, I have something to tell you."
Zhou Yong stopped and the others entered the house.
Zhou Xia took out a pack of cigarettes from her pocket and handed one to her elder brother. Zhou Yong shook his head slightly. Seeing this, Zhou Xia skillfully lit a cigarette and started smoking.
“When did you learn to smoke?”
Zhou Xia glanced at her elder brother: "It's been a few years."
Zhou Yong pursed his lips and said, "Smoke less. It's bad for your health."
Zhou Xia nodded: "Brother, accompany me to the Leng family tomorrow!"
Zhou Yong nodded: "Okay."
Zhou Xia took one puff of cigarette after another, and Zhou Yong could tell that she was in a very bad mood at the moment.
"How's the pharmaceutical business going lately?"
When Zhou Yong asked her about her work, Zhou Xia talked incessantly.
When she first went to Wei Guoan's place, not only could she not understand what they were saying, but she also encountered difficulties in her work because she was illiterate.
Zhou Xia studied while working, and through her own efforts, she has now become a business manager in a pharmaceutical factory.
Wei Guoan, Zhou Yong and Chen Pingliang are planning to invest in a pharmaceutical factory abroad. Zhou Xia is currently learning English. Once the pharmaceutical factory is nearly ready, she will go abroad to explore the market.
Zhou Yong nodded as he listened to Zhou Xia's words: "Since you are going abroad, what will you do if you take the child with you?"
Zhou Xia smiled and said, "Brother, the procedures for going abroad are simple there, not as complicated as here... I will bring them over when I am stable abroad..."
Zhou Yong felt that this was a good idea, otherwise it would be too troublesome to apply for passports for Leng Yue and her sister in China.
As for the procedures for Leng Yue and Leng Qiu to go to Zhou Xia, Wei Guoan will handle it, so the brothers and sisters don't need to worry about it.
It was past nine o'clock when the brother and sister returned to the house.
Li Caiyun was sitting in bed reading a book when Zhou Yong pushed the door and walked in.
"Did you finish talking?"
Zhou Yong nodded, and Li Caiyun closed the book in her hand: "Where has Zhou Xia been these years? I asked her several times, but she didn't tell me. Also, are you familiar with Wei Guoan?"
"Zhou Xia is in Hong Kong. She came here through Chen Pingliang and is currently working in a pharmaceutical factory there..."
Li Caiyun was stunned when she heard this: "Why did she go to such a far place? She is unfamiliar with the place. How did she survive all these years?"
Zhou Yong smiled and said, "She's doing well over there, better than at home..."
Li Caiyun saw it. She opened her mouth, but she had too many doubts in her mind. After thinking about it, she didn't ask any more questions.
Zhou Yong pinched her face, lifted the quilt and got into bed.
Li Caiyun lay down and Zhou Yong turned off the lights, and the bedroom became dark.
After breakfast the next day, Zhou Yong rode his bicycle to the brigade to arrange his work, and then he went to the finance office of the township government.
After checking the accounts, Zhou Yong rushed home without stopping.
At around nine o'clock, Zhou Yong, Zhou Xia and Zhou Ling, three siblings, went to Leng's house.
When they came over, the cold old woman was lying on the kang and groaning!
"Who are you looking for?"
The old woman's eyes were blurry. She didn't recognize the three siblings of the Zhou family. She gasped and sat up from the kang with difficulty.
Zhou Yong looked at the old woman's sallow face and smelled the pungent smell of urine in the house, he couldn't help but frown.
"We're looking for you."
The cold old woman looked at Zhou Ling who said this, and she took out her reading glasses and put them on her nose.
"Zhou Ling?"
The cold old woman called out tentatively, uncertainly.
Zhou Ling smiled and said, "I didn't expect you could recognize me."
When the old woman saw that it was really Zhou Ling, her expression changed: "What are you doing in my house?"
The smile on Zhou Ling's face gradually disappeared: "I came to see Leng Yue and the others."
As Zhou Ling spoke, panic appeared in the old woman's eyes.
"They are not at home, you can go!"
Zhou Ling looked at Zhou Yong, and the brother and sister looked at each other.
"It doesn't matter if they're not at home. We can wait for them."
The cold old woman frowned, her face darkened, and she kept coughing and said, "You are not welcome in my home."
"Are you not welcoming us? Or are you afraid to face us?"
"I don't understand what you're saying."
It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t understand, Zhou Ling will make her understand.
"Don't understand? Let me ask you, where are the four sisters Lengyue, Lengqiu, Lengshuang and Lengxue? Don't tell them that they are out working. When I came here, I heard from others that you sold them all..."
