Chapter 1487 It’s hard to say whether it’s loss or disappointment.
After Zhou Chenshu said that everything was fine, Bian Zhi was relieved.
Gradually, the children got married and had children, and the family got together to such an extent that it could not fit on a photo page.
Among these people, only the second one has never been married.
For Bian Zhi, it doesn’t really matter whether one is married or not, as long as he is happy.
Among all the children, each of them looks like Zhou Suihuai in their own way, except for the second child, who has a rough appearance and is 195cm tall. He stands out wherever he goes. His voice is like a bell when he speaks, and he does things neatly and decisively.
Because he was in the gun business abroad, he had trained his skills since he was a child. He was big in build, and with the training, he could scare a child to tears if he stood in front of him.
None of the children in the family wanted to play with the second child, and he didn’t stay home for long. He always came back in a hurry and left in a hurry.
He is obviously nice to his family members, but there is always an aura of majesty that comes from not being angry. The little coward Zhou Chenshu is most afraid of his second brother.
However, Lao Er and Bian Zhi are very weak. It is easy to understand that the strong admire the strong.
The second brother has the best relationship with Huo Wuzun. They have similar personalities, so when the second brother comes home, he will usually go to Huo Wuzun to have a meal with him.
This time, this day, was an exception.
The second son rushed in and threw a person into the living room. Before the person could stand still, the second son shouted upstairs, "Mom!"
Bian Zhi came out of the study and was stunned when he looked down.
"Where did you get this little—"
Bian Zhi almost blurted out the word "beggar".
"Child?"
"Mom, I'll send someone to foster care for me for two months, and then I'll send him back. Thanks."
Bian Zhi was stunned.
"Foster care—what?"
The second child didn't even have time to shake off the dirt on his body, he turned around and left, Bian Zhi didn't even have time to call him, the child downstairs trembled and sat down on the ground.
The second brother had a loud voice, and everyone came out when he shouted.
Everyone stared at the ragged child in amazement, blinked in confusion, and looked at Bian Zhi together.
Bian Zhi sighed, slowly walked downstairs, and walked up to the child. He found that the child was shaking his shoulders and was about to cry out of fear.
"You..." Bian Zhi tilted his head to observe her, then waved his hand in front of her eyes. There was no response. "Can't you see?"
The child nodded.
Bian Zhi: '...'
Bian Zhi was speechless. Zhou Enyou yawned and came out, "Second brother, you really bring everyone home. How old are you, kid?"
The child took a step back and lost her balance again. If Liu Shuyi hadn't helped her, she would have fallen again.
As Liu Shuyi touched her bones, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you a girl?"
Bian Zhi: “…”
Without waiting for the girl to nod, Bian Zhi had already gone out with the phone. In the yard, he really couldn't help cursing, "You brought someone back and left without saying anything. Did you know that this child is blind?"
The second child was already on the plane. "I know, I picked it up on the way. You can do whatever you want with it. If it's really troublesome, you can find a trash can to throw it away. I'm flying the plane here. Let's leave it this way for now."
Look at what a heartless tone he uses.
Bian Zhi was so angry that he almost exploded.
When he was walking back with his phone, he saw a group of people surrounding the child, asking him all kinds of questions. Then Bian Zhi realized that the child was just blind, but could speak.
It would be much easier if you could speak.
Bian Zhi first went over to ask her if she had any external injuries, and then asked Liu Shuyi to take her to take a bath.
An hour passed. When Liu Shuyi brought her down, he whispered, "What a girl, but—" Liu Shuyi glanced at her dog-chewed hair, unable to put into words, "This… hairstyle is quite trendy."
When the child heard this, he lowered his head to his chest and his face turned red.
Seeing this, Bian Zhi walked over and signed the man to the sofa. "Don't be afraid, I'm a doctor. Let me take your pulse. Come on, stretch out your hand."
The child stretched out his hand.
Bian Zhi was silent, and everyone in the room looked at the child curiously, then at Bian Zhi.
A few seconds later.
Bian Zhi asked, "How old are you this year?"
Child: “Twenty-three.”
Bian Zhi: '...' I was about to get angry again. The second child is already 35 years old this year. Whose child was this abducted from?
"Haha," Bian Zhi laughed dryly and pointed at her eyes. Realizing that she couldn't see, he asked, "How long have you been blind?"
"Two years ago, we were at war. I hit my head and bled a lot. After that... I couldn't see anymore."
Bian Zhi nodded, agreeing with her judgment, "Well, you can take care of this, don't worry, but tell me, what is your relationship with my second child?"
The little girl shook her head, "I don't know any second brother."
Zhou Enyou was beside him, "That's the man who just brought you back."
"I... asked him for help. In the chaos, I grabbed his hand, and then he brought me here."
Bian Zhi frowned, "That's it?"
"Um."
Bian Zhi: “…”
"Well, okay..." The old mother said with a worried look, "Then you live here first. The second son put you here. Oh, this is his home, so he must have his reasons. When he comes back, you two can discuss it. Is that okay?"
"What's your name?" Zhou Enyou asked.
"Orchid Garden."
Bian Zhi nodded, "Okay, then I'll arrange for someone to take care of you later."
"No need," Lan Yuan waved her hand flatteredly, "I can take care of myself."
Bian Zhi didn't say anything else. He arranged for a girl to take care of Lan Yuan, and then went upstairs to write a prescription.
After taking a few doses of medicine, Lan Yuan's eyes were no longer completely dark, and he could see a few blurry shadows.
However, she still didn't dare to walk around in this house. Everything here was unfamiliar to her.
So, one day, a person with a strong presence stood in front of her and said coldly, "Why is your hair still like this? Zhou Enyou, why don't you ask someone to take care of it?"
Zhou Enyou glanced at Lan Yuan and said, "You brought this child back yourself, so take care of him yourself."
How terrified must those who couldn't see be. They were all strangers to Lan Yuan. Lao Er was a rough man and didn't understand these things.
He went straight to the kitchen, got a basin, put it on the person's head, and picked up the scissors to cut.
"Hey--" Bian Zhi saw this scene as soon as he came down. He was really old and had seen all kinds of men. "What are you doing?" Bian Zhi stopped Lao Er from using the scissors to hit someone's hair.
"Snip, snip."
"You can?"
"You'll get it if you try. How hard can it be?"
Bian Zhi: "...Thank you." Bian Zhi looked down and saw that the girl was almost scared to tears. "Let me do it," Bian Zhi took the scissors and whispered to the girl, "Don't cut too much, just trim the edges. It's uneven now and looks a bit weird."
The second brother was not so thoughtful. He stood aside with his arms crossed, watching Bian Zhi speak softly.
The second brother thought.
Women are such trouble.
I brought her back that day and she cried all the way. She is still crying now. Is this woman made of water?
The second brother didn't say anything, just stood aside and watched. When the haircut was finished, he clapped his hands and said to Bian Zhi, "That's enough. I'll take it away."
The second child is the only one who does not live at home. In his own words, "I am already in my 30s and still come to live at home. It is not right."
So, as soon as the hair was cut, the second brother grabbed the person's hand, said, "Okay, I'll take you away," and left.
Zhou Enyou was dumbfounded as he watched the second brother stride forward and drag the man away. He exclaimed, "No wonder he's single. He deserves to be single with the way he acts!"
Bian Zhi also sighed.
I don’t know who this child looks like. How can he treat girls without any sympathy or tenderness?
Bian Zhi and the others were right. The second brother really didn't have these little thoughts. He was a rough person and didn't put that much thought into treating girls.
He brought the person back to the villa, answered a phone call and went out.
When he came back, it was two days later. He groped around in the room and casually fell on the sofa. The touch under his hands was soft. The second child had been drinking for two days and his head was dizzy. When he turned around, he saw the child's red face.
The second brother looked down and was surprised to realize what he had just caught.
He let go of her hand and sat up with a headache. When he spoke, his deep voice was mixed with hoarseness, "Why are you here?"
Just as he finished speaking, he heard the rumbling sound of his stomach. The second brother raised an eyebrow and said, "Don't tell me that you haven't eaten for a few days while I've been away."
Lan Yuan pursed her lips, lowered her head and dared not speak.
This person is a bit scary.
The second brother noticed her nervousness and felt her shrink back slightly. For some reason, this action made him a little irritated.
The rough man had no intention of showing any mercy to the woman. He pinched her chin, looked her over, and then said in a low voice, "Are you afraid of me?"
Lan Yuan became even more nervous. She could see some vague shadows in the bright light, but now there were only a few rays of light from the wall lamps upstairs in the room. To her, she could not see anything.
People who can’t see are timid and afraid of everything.
The second brother looked at her and saw tears accumulating in her eyes, and they fell down the next second.
Second child: "..." coldly, "Don't cry, hold it back."
Lan Yuan's eyes were big, but they looked empty at the moment. Scared by Lao Er's words, tears started to fall down. Lan Yuan became even more nervous, and her breathing became rapid. Yin Tao gasped for breath, and Lao Er's eyes darkened for a few seconds.
He released Lan Yuan's chin and said coldly, "I saved you, remember?"
Lan Yuan nodded, tears falling.
"You are now in my territory. You must listen to me and follow my rules. Do you understand?"
Lan Yuan nodded again, tears continuing to fall.
"First of all, you are not allowed to cry here."
Lan Yuanming pursed her lips, and raised her hand to wipe away her tears, looking like a pitiful little girl.
The second son was satisfied. "My name is Zhou Ruiqi. From now on, you have to listen to me. There are rooms on the first and second floors. You can choose any one to live in. I don't like trouble and I don't like people who can't take care of themselves. My mother said that you can see a little bit now, so you have to do your own things. Do you understand? I don't have any servants here, no one will wait on you."
Lan Yuan nodded again.
"The kitchen is over there. Go over there and cook when you're hungry."
Lan Yuan nodded again, tugged at the hem of her skirt, supported herself with her hands and slowly sat up from the sofa. She stood in front of Zhou Ruiqi and asked softly, "You, you want to eat?"
Zhou Ruiqi, "I don't need you, just take care of yourself."
Lan Yuan nodded when she heard this, her hands groping in the air. Zhou Ruiqi reminded her, "Move forward a little," and Lan Yuan did as she was told. "There's a golf club here. It's yours from now on."
Zhou Ruiqi was really sleepy and had no intention of taking care of anyone. When he passed by Lanyuan, he vaguely felt that the girl was too thin and looked like a bag of bones.
When I was lying in bed, I thought again, there are still some places where I need to grow flesh.
It was normal for a man in his thirties to think about these things, but he didn't think about it for long. In just a few seconds, he fell asleep.
As a result, the people downstairs stumbled around for half an hour and only found a piece of biscuit to fill their stomachs.
When Zhou Ruiqi went downstairs, there was a person standing in the kitchen. He clumsily picked up the pot, washed it, and put noodles in it.
Zhou Ruiqi leaned against the stairs with his arms folded, and made no move to remind her that the water had to boil before adding the noodles.
Women are so delicate.
He just casually grabbed her wrist yesterday, and today it was bruised.
Zhou Ruiqi has always been in a hurry to do things and rarely stops to see what others are doing. Today, he stood for a long time for the first time.
The noodles were cooked so hard that they stuck to the pot, and a burnt smell filled the villa. The person who was in a hurry accidentally burned his hand, and the pot fell to the ground, scattering noodles all over the floor.
The already terrified person was so frightened that she started crying softly on the spot, but she seemed to remember what the man had warned her about. She pursed her lips and carefully reached out to clean up the ground.
Zhou Ruiqi had no habit of pampering others, and this time was no exception. He stood at the stairs and watched her carefully and clumsily tidy up the noodles on the ground.
Then I watched her stand up and rinse her scalded hands under cold water.
Zhou Ruiqi only came downstairs when she started cooking noodles again.
For a half-blind man, cooking noodles is a very rare thing. Lan Yuan did not have the habit of eating alone, so he cooked a portion for Zhou Ruiqi as well. However, it was not cooked well, and was soft and sticky together, with no taste at all.
But Zhou Ruiqi was not picky. He ate whatever was given to him. After he finished eating, he washed the dishes himself and then sat on the sofa to watch TV.
Lan Yuan cooked a bit too much noodles, and was still full at noon. Zhou Ruiqi watched the news all morning. Lan Yuan didn't want to eat, but thinking that Zhou Ruiqi was big, he had to eat. He asked quietly, and Zhou Ruiqi said, "No, you can make your own."
Lan Yuan felt that he despised her craftsmanship, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
This man was not friendly at all to the blind man.
But even though I was red, I didn't cry. I didn't dare to.
Zhou Ruiqi glanced at her and then looked away. At noon, Lan Yuan felt that the man had fallen asleep, so she carefully avoided him and sat there alone for the whole afternoon.
When Lan Yuan was about to get up to cook dinner in the evening, Zhou Ruiqi got up and said, "Let me do it."
Lan Yuan was stunned. "Huh?"
"You do it in the morning, and I'll do it in the evening."
Lan Yuan shrank his neck: "Oh."
Zhou Ruiqi is away from home all year round, and he is actually quite good at cooking. I can’t say his food is particularly delicious, but compared to the noodles he makes in the morning, they are indeed very good.
Zhou Ruiqi went out after dinner and didn't come back that night.
A few days passed like this, and Chinese medicine was still delivered to her one after another. She gradually felt better after taking the medicine. From the blurry figure, she could see a rough outline. When she got closer, she could barely make out the facial features.
After seeing clearly what Zhou Ruiqi looked like, Lan Yuan took a breath. This man looked too majestic and a little scary.
Lan Yuan became more and more afraid of Zhou Ruiqi, especially when he called her and used that tone of voice that said it was either you or me. Lan Yuan sat there trembling, and never dared to get close to him again.
In the meantime, Zhou Ruiqi went on a business trip and sent her back to the Bian family.
This time, Bian Zhi trimmed her hair again.
Lan Yuan had a good impression of Bian Zhi and thought that this woman had a very pleasant smell, like the mint in traditional Chinese medicine, refreshing and cool.
A few months later, Lan Yuan's eyes were completely healed. She heard Bian Zhi calling Zhou Ruiqi on the other end of the phone, "It's your grandfather's birthday, are you going back?"
Lan Yuan leaned against the door and heard the other end seem to say he was going to come back, but also seemed to say he didn't have time. When she called home, the call was always ended in a hurry. Zhou Ruiqi seemed to be always busy.
Bian Zhi came over from the yard after making a phone call and said to Lan Yuan with a smile, "Always saying you're busy, you little bastard."
Lan Yuan also smiled faintly. She never talked much.
Recently, she saw things clearly and began to feel that it was not appropriate for her to stay here any longer. This was Zhou Ruiqi's home, and she and that man had not even spoken a few words.
That autumn passed in a flash.
When winter came and Lan Yuan put on thick cotton clothes, Zhou Ruiqi came with big strides, stepping through the wind and snow, looking exhausted.
Seeing Lan Yuan standing under the tree, he was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who are you?"
Lan Yuan wrinkled her nose, "Lan Yuan."
Zhou Ruiqi suddenly realized something, as if he had just remembered the existence of this person. "Oh, what are you doing standing outside?"
Lan Yuan pursed her lips and said nothing.
Zhou Ruiqi looked at her porcelain-white face, which looked even smaller against the red plum blossoms behind her. Zhou Ruiqi was very good-looking, with eyes like a little fox. Her cautious and frightened look always made people want to do evil.
Zhou Ruiqi glanced at her a few times and walked in.
When he came out again, he said to the person standing under the tree, "Let's go."
Lan Yuan was stunned for a moment, and Zhou Ruiqi didn't give him a chance to refute. He honked his horn and said, "Let's go back."
Bian Zhi does not urge marriage.
But Zhou Guotao was like a monk chanting sutras. After finally catching Zhou Ruiqi, he grabbed him and pulled him out of the car, "You still remember to go home? How long have you been out? Tell me, you are old, when are you going to get married? I am also old, will I ever be able to attend your wedding in this lifetime?"
"Look, Zhou Enyou and Zhou Chenshu's children are already in school. As their older brother, can you please give me some snacks?"
Zhou Guotao muttered to himself while Zhou Ruiqi stood aside and listened. It was not that he was afraid to leave, but the old man in front of him was old and had poor blood pressure. If he really left, he would feel dizzy.
"Come to my house for dinner tonight!" Zhou Guotao said to Zhou Ruiqi: "If you don't come, I will kill you directly at home!"
Zhou Ruiqi nodded, but didn't take it to heart at all.
I ordered takeout for dinner and watched the news while playing games on my phone.
Lan Yuan cooked some pear soup and brought it over. The man immediately retreated eight hundred meters. Zhou Ruiqi slowly raised his eyes and looked at the man.
Haha, you can see me with your eyes, but you dare to hide.
Zhou Ruiqi was just playing a prank. He made a bowl of pear soup bland, sweet, cold, and hot again and again, tormenting people over and over again.
Lan Yuan's face wrinkled and she felt unhappy.
Zhou Ruiqi was patient and in the end, he cooked a bowl of pear soup until only a little bit was left, and then he drank it slowly.
After dinner, Zhou Guotao bombarded me with calls, cursing and asking me to go back.
Zhou Ruiqi sighed, but still replied. No matter how the children of the Zhou family look on the surface, they are undoubtedly filial.
Zhou Guotao is old and his health is not that good. He is always worried about his unmarried children.
He drank some wine and cried with tears and snot. Zhou Ruiqi gave him some tissue, but Zhou Guotao refused to take it. He cursed in annoyance and then continued crying.
"Just tell me one thing! When are you getting married?"
Zhou Ruiqi didn't get tired of it and said lightly on the table, "This year."
Zhou Guotao was about to continue cursing, but when he heard this, he exclaimed, "Ah!" and stood there in a daze, not reacting for a long time.
Zhou Enyou looked at Zhou Ruiqi, "Which year?"
Zhou Ruiqi repeated, "This year," he stood up and said to the people sitting around watching the fun, "Let's go."
Lan Yuan stood up and followed behind obediently.
It was snowing heavily. When someone was about to fall, Zhou Ruiqi pulled her up and never let go.
After returning home.
Lan Yuan pursed her lips and stood in front of Zhou Ruiqi. "Well...if you want to get married, I don't think it's suitable for me to stay here any longer. So...how about that, I'm leaving."
Zhou Ruiqi was still watching TV. "Well, whatever you want."
Lan Yuan bowed deeply to the man and said, "Thank you for taking me in for so long."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ruiqi raised his gaze from the TV and fixed it on Lan Yuan's face. "Just a thank you, and that's it?"
Lan Yuan pursed her lips. Feeling the gaze of the person opposite her, she took a step back and said, "Well, I'll write you an IOU. I'll pay you back later for the money I spent here during this period."
Zhou Ruiqi held the remote control in his hand and said indifferently, "I don't accept IOUs."
Lan Yuan clenched his hands, "Then, what do you want?"
Zhou Ruiqi pressed the remote control and changed the channel frequently, "Let's get married."
Lan Yuan opened her round eyes wide and looked at Zhou Ruiqi, "You, are you kidding me?"
"Do you have somewhere to go?" Zhou Ruiqi's tone was like negotiation, but he was actually very assertive. "Besides, my mother cured your eyes, didn't she? How much do you think a pair of eyes are worth?"
Zhou Ruiqi looked her up and down and asked, "Besides, do you have money?"
Lan Yuan bit her lip.
"Don't get me wrong, it's just a marriage. If we're both suitable for each other later, we can divorce at will. I never force anyone."
Lan Yuan heard this and felt that Zhou Ruiqi's words were actually a kind of coercion.
"There's no wedding, no formalities, just an excuse for my grandfather to make him happy anyway."
These words were said so lightly that Lan Yuan felt that it was just a perfunctory response.
"Then... okay." Lan Yuan said softly.
So, when Zhou Guotao brought Zhou Ruiqi to the Lanyuan Civil Affairs Bureau, Zhou Ruiqi filled out the form calmly, but Lanyuan was still confused.
"Haha, I'll leave the marriage certificate here. Grandpa won't bother you tonight. Come to my house for dinner tomorrow and celebrate with you!"
After saying that, Zhou Guotao ran away with the marriage certificate.
When Zhou Ruiqi turned his head, he saw someone's dull face. When the little fox's eyes were dull, they always looked a bit pitiful and innocent.
"What are you looking at?" Zhou Ruiqi stretched out his hand towards her. "Let's go home."
Before, Zhou Ruiqi said to her, "Go back," but this time, he said, "Go home."
Lan Yuan grasped it for some unknown reason, and when she turned her head, she saw a faint smile on Zhou Ruiqi's lips.
The smile was so shallow that Lan Yuan almost thought it was an illusion.
When she was thrown onto the bed, Lan Yuan remembered that she should resist.
"I, you...you said it was a fake marriage."
Zhou Ruiqi had already exhausted his patience. "We've already got the marriage certificate, what's the point of telling whether it's real or fake?"
"But..." The sound of clothes being torn rang out in the room. Lan Yuan was really scared, tears streaming from her eyes, "But, wuwuwu--"
The white body was exposed to the air as the clothes were torn. Zhou Ruiqi was very strong. He grabbed Lan Yuan like a little rabbit and pressed her under him in an instant.
The hair that was once bitten by a dog has now grown longer and spread softly on the snow-white quilt. The previously trembling eyes are filled with tears, which makes people unable to help but lower their heads to cover them and kiss the scars on their heads bit by bit.
"Be good," Zhou Ruiqi had no experience in this area, so he was very careful when he moved, "I won't hurt you."
Lan Yuan bit her lip and tears fell like rain. At this moment, she felt that Zhou Ruiqi was the worst villain in the world!
"You..." When she was crying and out of breath, the man leaned over and bit her gently, whispering, "Don't cry. If you cry again, I'll lose you."
Lan Yuan cried even harder. Even in this situation, he was still thinking about abandoning herself.
Zhou Ruiqi was helpless. Why did this woman love to cry so much? He had never coaxed a woman in his life, but he had no choice but to stop, gently wipe away her tears with his fingers, and said softly: "Okay, I'll go slower, okay?"
Lan Yuan looked at her sobbingly. Zhou Ruiqi raised his hand to cover her eyes and said helplessly, "Grandfather, stop looking at this. If you lose control again, you'll be responsible."
Zhou Ruiqi was extremely gentle in everything that happened afterwards. Lan Yuan hummed and moaned, and finally a brilliant firework appeared in her head, and she finally fainted.
In the hazy state of fainting, she felt someone wiping her body and carefully applying medicine, while complaining, "Is it made of tofu? I didn't even use any force, how come it turned blue?"
Lan Yuan didn't remember what happened afterwards.
When she woke up again, it was dark outside again. Someone came up to her with a greedy look in his eyes, staring at her like a wolf. She could even feel the heat coming from him.
Lan Yuan looked horrified.
Zhou Ruiqi smiled and said, "Get up and eat. You're so lazy. You've slept for two days."
Lan Yuan frowned this time, pulled the quilt over her chest, and blushed, "You go out first."
Zhou Ruiqi put his hands behind his back and said, "I won't."
Lan Yuan: “…”
Zhou Ruiqi, "I've seen everything on you, why would you cover me up?"
Lan Yuan: "......"
Lan Yuan stopped moving, her face flushed and anxious.
Zhou Ruiqi stopped teasing and stood up and walked out with no expression on his face. Lan Yuan didn't know whether he was unhappy or not.
After she put on her clothes, she went downstairs awkwardly, only to find that there was someone downstairs.
To be precise, someone was cooking in the kitchen downstairs.
Zhou Ruiqi said to her: "She is the new auntie, she will cook for you from now on."
Lan Yuan has lived here for a long time. Before he lost his sight, Zhou Ruiqi didn't say anything about hiring someone to cook for his family.
"It's different now," Zhou Ruiqi said, "Our relationship is different."
So far.
Lan Yuan understood that Zhou Ruiqi had a typical businessman's mindset. He would only give if he had something to gain. Unimportant people and things were not among those he gave to. He only gave what he thought he would give.
After understanding this, Lan Yuan felt a little complicated.
I can’t say whether I feel lost or disappointed.
