He wants this girl.
And it belongs to him alone.
The two spent a wonderful weekend at the Forest Hotel.
I didn’t return to Yuanshangju until Sunday night.
At that time, Liang Xinyun and Zhou Mo's parents were discussing how to celebrate the New Year.
Liang Xinyun said, "Every year during the Spring Festival, I would go back to Grandpa Han Chen's place, but this year..."
She was a little hesitant, not knowing what Han Chen was thinking, and she looked at Han Chen.
Han Chen: "We crossed the Dongjiang River."
Liang Xinyun: "Just think it over carefully."
I’m afraid that Grandpa Han Chen will have some complaints.
She had lived in Dongjiang with Han Chen for a year before, and they also returned to the capital to celebrate the Spring Festival during the winter vacation before the start of the second semester of high school.
Han Hongde has completely given up his jurisdiction over Han Chen and handed it over to Liang Xinyun.
Liang Xinyun knew that she couldn't be too pushy. She still had to go home during the holidays, especially the Spring Festival.
Especially now that Han Hongde is old, the more we see him now, the less we will see him in the future.
It's true that he loves Han Chen, but the Han family has some rules that are a bit suffocating.
Zhou Mo felt that they couldn't just listen to Han Chen on this matter. After all, Han Chen hadn't properly handled their marriage during the National Day holiday.
Now Han Chen doesn't go home for the New Year... It's inevitable that the Han family will think that Han Chen is bewitched by her and doesn't even want his family anymore.
"Aunt Liang, what do you think?" Zhou Mo had never met Han Chen's grandfather, so it was difficult for him to judge the degree. Liang Xinyu had been the daughter-in-law of the Han family for so many years, and she had a lot of experience, so her concerns would be more comprehensive.
"It's okay, Momo," Liang Xinyun said, "Don't feel burdened. If you don't want to go back, then don't go back. At worst... you can go back during the Chinese New Year next year."
"No," Zhou Mo said, "Aunt Liang, I want to hear your honest opinion."
Instead of saying something to numb her and make her relax in order to make her feel better.
This is not conducive to easing relations with the Han family.
Liang Xinyun glanced at Zhou Zheng and Liu Xiangru, feeling a little speechless for a moment.
"It's okay, Xin Yun, just tell me what you want to say," Liu Xiangru said. "If Momo really wants to go to the capital, that's fine. She can just stay with us next year. We won't make things difficult for the two children."
Liang Xinyun's face was conflicted. "I'm not afraid that they'll let Han Chen and Momo go. I'm afraid... they only want Han Chen to go back and don't want Momo to go."
Since Han Hongde didn't acknowledge Zhou Mo at 11 and didn't let her in, it meant that he didn't approve of Zhou Mo from the beginning to the end.
Han Chen no longer has any control over who he gets married with.
But he can still control who can enter the Han family's gate.
In other words, this is the biggest concession Han Hongde has made.
Liu Xiangru was stunned for a moment. She obviously didn't expect that the Han family would be so heartless and merciless.
Zhou Zheng wasn't surprised at all. "This was also one of my concerns when the two children got married. Festivals should be a time for family reunions, especially the Spring Festival, but...the young couple will definitely be caught in the middle because of where to celebrate the New Year. If they go back to their own homes and visit their own mothers, the Spring Festival will become a day that prevents them from reuniting. Sigh——"
Zhou Zheng let out a long sigh.
Liu Xiangru also said: "It's okay for one or two years, but it can't be like this forever, right?"
Especially not letting Zhou Mo come to the house.
Who wouldn’t think that this was a deliberate slap in the face of the Zhou family?
Zhou Mo's parents thought they had been very patient and restrained.
The Han family is clearly taking advantage of the situation.
If the two companies are allowed to develop in this way, there will be more and more irreconcilable conflicts in the future.
Zhou Mo was also in a difficult situation.
Han Chen was very determined and said, "I will go back to see Grandpa. The Spring Festival holiday is not just one day. I will spend the New Year in Dongjiang first, and then I will go back to see Grandpa."
Liang Xinyun felt that Han Hongde would definitely not be satisfied with this, but...
"This is the best solution Han Chen can think of right now. Let's just leave it at that," Liang Xinyun said. "As for Han Chen's grandfather... at worst, I can go back and cover for Han Chen, saying he's on duty or something, and let him spend the New Year with you in Dongjiang."
Liu Xiangru felt uncomfortable. "Instead of this, Han Chen should just go back. Why is he staying here secretly like this?"
After she finished speaking, Liu Xiangru felt that her words were a bit harsh. This matter was not Liang Xinyun's fault in the first place, but she spoke rudely, as if blaming her for the resentment.
Realizing this, Liu Xiangru quickly apologized, "Xin Yun, I'm not blaming you, I'm..."
"I know, Sister Xiangru," Liang Xinyun said, "This is something Han Chen and I didn't think carefully enough. Marriage is a matter between two families. I was so focused on bringing the two children together that I didn't consider these things."
"Forget it," Zhou Zheng said resignedly, "This is also a test for the young couple. Marriage is never smooth sailing. It's through sharing joys and sorrows that their relationship is cultivated. But they're stumped by where to celebrate the New Year. What are they going to do in the future?"
Liu Xiangru: "What you said sounds nice and is all good sense. But in this situation, what do you want them to do?"
Zhou Zheng: "What else can we do? Didn't Han Chen give us a solution? This is the best solution he can think of. What else can we do to him? He can't create two bodies by himself, one to stay in Dongjiang and one to return to the imperial capital."
Liu Xiangru was speechless for a moment.
Zhou Zheng then said to Han Chen, "We can't help you any more, we can only be as tolerant as possible. Your Aunt Liu and I have never had high expectations of you. We only care about one thing: you must take good care of Momo for us. You are not allowed to hurt her, make her sad, or make her upset. Other than that, everything else, including where to spend the New Year, can be discussed."
Han Chen lowered his head and said solemnly, "I know, Uncle Zhou. Don't worry."
Zhou Zheng: "Well, for the rest, you and Momo can discuss it. If you have any other plans, just let us know. It doesn't matter where you go for the New Year. The important thing is that the whole family is happy during the New Year, right?"
Liu Xiangru disagreed a bit and muttered softly, "Who said it doesn't matter where we go for the New Year? It does matter, okay? I just want my daughter and son-in-law to be by my side."
Zhou Zheng: "Let's also consider their actual situation. Isn't this not allowed?"
Liu Xiangru was a little sad and slightly annoyed.
Zhou Mo noticed that his mother was having a bad temper.
She can understand it too.
Ever since she was a child, during the Chinese New Year and other festivals, the family always gathered together and there was no talk of separating to celebrate the New Year.
It was inevitable that she would feel uncomfortable being suddenly made to do this.
Besides, this is Zhou Mo's first New Year after marriage. As a mother, Liu Xiangru certainly hopes that her daughter and son-in-law can be around and have a lively time.
However, the reality is not as good as Zhou Zheng said.
"Mom, don't be sad," Zhou Mo hugged Liu Xiangru's neck from behind, rocking her and saying coquettishly, "We're just getting started. We have many, many years to live together."
