On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Kelly Zhou and her sister had a fight with their relatives.
Kelly Zhou is the third child in the family, with two older sisters and a younger brother.
The eldest sister Zhou Huiqing married to Songcheng seven years ago. She and her brother-in-law are DINKs. Because she didn't want to be forced to have children, she didn't go home during the Chinese New Year for three consecutive years.
My second sister, Zhou Huiting, is 27 years old this year. She is unmarried and has no children. Matchmakers come to her house almost every day. She is more afraid of the Chinese New Year than the New Year pig.
Zhou Huilin felt okay because there was someone in front of her to help her withstand the pressure. She was scolded every day for going to bed late and getting up late, but she was scolded. She had endured it for so many years. She continued to eat oranges, crack melon seeds, and chew sugarcane heartlessly, observing the faces of the NPCs while eating, and occasionally revealing an ambiguous smile.
Even if the melon fell on her, Zhou Huilin said nothing, but just stared at the NPC with a look that was three parts cold, three parts indifferent and four parts sarcastic.
The gossiping villagers glanced at Zhou Huilin's expression: "..."
How did the eccentric third child of the Zhou Cai family get into college? The more books you read, the more problems you have in your brain. You will never get married.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Yucai's sister Zhou Yuying brought a group of people back to her parents' home. Zhou Huilin's mother and brother were away visiting relatives and were not there.
During the meal, Zhou Yuying talked about the same old things and started scolding Zhou Huiqing for not going home to see her family and even deleted her WeChat.
Zhou Huiting: "My sister deleted you, that's definitely your fault. You definitely want to harm her."
"I wanted to harm her?" Zhou Yuying raised her voice, spit flying. "I was doing it for her own good! She's been married for so long and still can't have a child, so my sister adopted a girl to raise for her and take care of her in her old age. The child is less than two years old, and she calls me mom whenever she's asked. She's so obedient, and she doesn't have to go through the hardships of a ten-month pregnancy."
Kelly Zhou: It is indeed a famous place for having children, and the idea of favoring boys over girls is deeply rooted.
Zhou Huiting: "My sister's career is going well, why should she take care of the baby? The child is so well-behaved, why don't you adopt the child yourself and let your Xinbao be a child bride?"
"What are you talking about! Xinbao and she are cousins!"
When Zhou Huilin saw the chicken leg she wanted to eat, her saliva started to water. She put down her chopsticks silently. She probably didn't want to eat this meal. Fortunately, she had a bowl of clean meat stored in her space.
"What's wrong with cousins? Aren't Daiyu and Baoyu cousins? They have such a good relationship. If Xinbao can't give birth to a son in the future, he can ask for one from another family."
When she said her son couldn't have a son, Zhou Yuying's face suddenly turned dark.
Zhou Yucai shouted, "Zhou Huiting! How do you talk to your aunt?"
The second aunt next to her also expressed her opinion: "Ting, you need to change your temper. You are so rude to your family members. It will be even harder for you to find a husband in the future."
"Why would I want to marry into a family? I breathe secondhand smoke, use toxic sanitary napkins, have bad intentions, and can't even have a son. Wouldn't it be torture for me to marry into one?"
Who says I'm rude? I'm an excellent member of the Communist Youth League! My teachers and classmates all praise my good character. You're the ones who are rude, gossiping about others all the time. Both men and women have such long tongues!
Do you really have so much free time to go to bed and have more children? Is sex really that enjoyable? Why do you all love doing it so much? It would be best if you could show me the process. After I learn all the positions, I can kidnap a rich second-generation kid and give birth to a child for you to raise.
"Zhou! Hui! Ting!"
Zhou Yucai threw the chopsticks at Zhou Huiting.
"I'm not eating anymore! I'm not eating anything!" Zhou Huilin stood up and overturned the dining table. "I'm not celebrating the New Year anymore!"
The kids at the next table were all crying.
"Zhou Huiting, are you crazy? I'm not saying anything bad about you, brother, but what kind of daughter did you raise? She's like a psychopath."
Zhou Yucai's face turned dark and red. "You're born with a mental disorder. There's something wrong with your brain! If you don't want to celebrate the New Year, then get out!"
"Just go away, I won't be back."
Zhou Huiting turned to leave, but Zhou Huilin grabbed her hand and said the first words of the night, "Zhou Yucai, you're the most incompetent and the most looked down upon person. You've been unable to achieve anything in all these years, and anyone can make fun of you and your children. Having a father like you is bad luck for us. It's not that you don't want us, it's that we don't want you."
Zhou Huiting burst out laughing. The third child was indeed the philosopher of the family, and his criticisms were very sharp.
Zhou Huilin and her sister packed a few clothes and important belongings and took a bus north to join their eldest sister.
Zhou Huiqing received the message, cleaned up the guest rooms for her two sisters, and waited for half a day, but no one replied to her message and the phone call was unanswered!
"A Zhao, do you think something happened to them?"
Ji Rongzhao: "That shouldn't be the case. The second and third sisters are not children anymore. Maybe they came out in a hurry and their phones ran out of battery?"
Zhou Huiqing became even more anxious. "Impossible! I know them. If their phone battery drops below 50, they'll try to charge it. It's not dead. Maybe something happened while they were trying to get a taxi. Two young and weak girls, it's easy for something to happen to them."
"The problem is that calling the police is useless now."
Zhou Huiqing was so panicked that she walked around the house, cursing her relatives in her hometown angrily.
As night fell, Zhou Huiqing still hadn't received a reply. Her eyes were swollen from crying. "A Zhao, isn't your cousin the director of Fire Phoenix? Ask him if he can ask his boss for help and find out where Huilin and the others are. I'm so worried about them."
Zhou Huiqing also felt that her request was outrageous, but she really had no choice. She had the best relationship with Zhou Huiting, and Zhou Huilin was the sister who grew up on her back. She couldn't just sit and wait while the two of them came to find her.
"They are still doing team-building at sea, he may not be able to help." Having said that, Ji Rongzhao still sent a few messages to Ji Rongjun.
