Zhou Qizhen raised his eyes from the ultrasound report in his hand, and in an instant, he returned to his usual coldness.
"I know."
Zhou Qiyue nodded and then asked, "What are you going to do with your aunt?"
Before Zhou Qizhen could answer, Zhou's father came in carrying two large bags of fruit.
He placed the fruit on the tea table and said to Zhou Qizhen, "You take care of the younger ones, and I'll take care of the older ones. Humph! She's bullying our little Qiaotou. Does she think this is her Wang family?"
…
Zhou family’s old house.
Wang Yumei sat on the sofa, being scolded by Zhao Jiangang: "You really disappoint me terribly. Now that such a big thing has happened, how are you going to explain it to others?"
Wang Yumei said in a tone of dissatisfaction: "What's wrong with you? I know I was wrong, what else do you want? You didn't speak up for me, and you sided with outsiders. Everyone saw it. It wasn't me who pushed it. I think this little girl did it on purpose. Who would believe that she didn't know she was two months pregnant? Only my brother-in-law would believe it."
Zhao Jiangang gnashed his teeth in anger: "Shut up, is this just about her pregnancy? Why are you talking about the fact that Qi Zheng gave Xiao Qiao a card? What does this have to do with you?"
Wang Yuxue saw her sister and brother-in-law quarreling, and she was a little anxious because she couldn't get a word in. "Stop quarreling, Xiao Qiao is fine, so you two should stop quarreling."
"If you want to argue, go outside. This is the Zhou family, not your Zhao family or Wang family." Zhou's father walked in from outside and said loudly.
After Zhou's father finished speaking, he ignored everyone and just walked straight towards the stairs.
Zhao Yaqin came out of the kitchen and asked him in surprise: "Why are you back? The chicken soup has just been cooked, and Lin Lin and I are just about to go over."
"I'll come back to get something, we'll go over together later."
When Zhou's father came down from the building, he was holding a sealed document bag in his hand.
He glanced at the older people on the sofa and said in a cold voice, "My daughter-in-law is in the hospital because of her anger. Don't you plan to go and see her? And you have nothing better to do than sit at home and chat."
Zhao Jiangang has never been treated coldly by anyone in his life. Now, because of Wang Yumei, he has completely tasted the bitterness and embarrassment.
He stood up somewhat awkwardly: "Brother-in-law, if you don't tell me, we are also preparing to go there with my second sister later."
Father Zhou snorted coldly: "You are not sincere. While we were waiting, you didn't even bother to buy some supplements or food, but you have the time to quarrel here."
Zhao Jiangang quickly explained: "How is that possible? Everything is ready and already in the trunk of the car."
Father Zhou then said nothing more.
When a group of people rushed to the hospital and entered the ward, everyone was stunned.
Zhou Qi was seen half-kneeling beside the bed, his body slightly leaning forward, his face pressed tightly against Lu Xiaoqiao's belly, mumbling something in an unknown voice.
Lu Xiaoqiao noticed someone coming in and quickly pushed Zhou Qizhen's head, signaling him to hurry up.
After everyone came in, Zhou Qizhen simply greeted Zhao Jiangang.
Zhou Qiyue went outside to make a phone call and came back. Seeing the ward full of people, he looked at Zhou's father in confusion.
When Zhou's father saw that everyone was there, he snorted in his heart: Bullying my daughter-in-law, humph! I'll give you face!
In front of everyone, he opened the document bag in his hand and placed the share transfer document in front of Lu Xiaoqiao.
"Dad has given you some more shares. As for how much, you just need to know it in your heart. You don't need to let others know."
Just as Lu Xiaoqiao was about to speak, Zhou Qi, who was standing next to her, secretly touched her lower back. She knew that it was Zhou's father who was trying to save face for her.
I quickly reached out to take it and said sweetly, "Thank you, Dad."
Father Zhou nodded and continued, "In addition, Dad has prepared two bank cards for you."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Wang Yumei and said to Lu Xiaoqiao, "You can spend these two cards however you want. Dad will transfer a sum of money into the savings card every month. I don't think anyone dares to question it."
…
Wang Yumei walked out of the hospital with a cold face and complained to Zhao Jiangang beside her: "You really have a good brother-in-law! Isn't he embarrassing me by saying that? And my second sister, she just stood there and said nothing. She doesn't even have as much shares as that little girl."
Wang Yuxue advised her, "Come on, stop talking. The old man was angry and said some harsh words. It's better than asking us to move out. That would be a real fight."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Jiangang's cell phone rang. Seeing that the caller was Zhou's father, he answered the call with some doubt.
"Hello? Brother-in-law, what else?"
Father Zhou said calmly: "After Xiao Qiao is discharged from the hospital, she will definitely have to return to the old house to recuperate for a while. But there are too many people at home now, and it is not suitable for recuperation. Jiangang, how about you take a look..."
Before Zhou's father finished speaking, Zhao Jiangang took over the conversation: "Brother-in-law, I understand. I was just about to tell you about this. I want to visit some comrades, and it's too far from the old house. I guess it's not very convenient, so I thought we shouldn't bother you any more. I'll come over alone on Qingming Festival."
"In that case, I won't keep you any longer. Tell me if you have anything to say. We will remain the same as before."
"Brother-in-law, I understand. Please talk to Qi Zheng for me. I am sorry for him this time."
After the two hung up the phone, Wang Yumei couldn't believe it and asked in a sharp voice, "He really plans to force us to move out?"
Zhao Jiangang said coldly: "Even if he doesn't like you, do you still have the face to live here? You'd better understand that the baby in that girl's belly is not only Zhou Qizhen's child, but also the eldest grandson of the Zhou family."
He thought of the scene he saw when he first entered the ward. He had never seen such a gentle expression on the face of his nephew, who usually had a cold expression. This was enough to show how important the girl was in his heart.
Thinking that the two sisters across from me were equally stupid, I felt a little depressed.
Glancing at Wang Yuxue beside him, he continued, "Also, do you think that others don't know about your little tricks? Today you should be thankful that it was your brother-in-law who stepped in to solve this matter."
"If it was his son who solved the problem, based on my understanding of my nephew, humph! You Wang family should hurry to the temple to burn incense and pray for blessings!"
After Zhao Jiangang finished speaking, he turned around and left, no longer paying attention to the two sisters who were standing there in a daze.
…
Lu Xiaoqiao stayed in the hospital for two days, and Zhou Qizhen also stayed with her in the hospital for two days.
On the morning of his discharge, Zhou Qi was looking at Lu Xiaoqiao who was sitting there drinking porridge obediently, and suddenly said, "Qiaoqiao, I'll take you back to the old house later. I'll go back to the company to take care of some things first."
Lu Xiaoqiao nodded and said, "Well, you go ahead and do your thing."
Zhou Qizheng helped her wipe the rice grains from the corners of her mouth and whispered, "I'm going to go public today!"
Lu Xiaoqiao raised her eyes to look at him: "What are you going to announce?"
Zhou Qizheng couldn't help but raise his lips: "Of course I have to make it public that Qiao Qiao is my wife!"
