Xie Jinghu was thinking about Zou Weijun's purpose of returning to the Xie family all the way. When he arrived at his eldest brother Xie Yuping's house, Xie Yuping was still at work and had not returned home. His eldest sister-in-law Hou Zhixiu pointed to the living room and whispered to him:
"Mom is so happy today. Third brother, please be careful with your words. I also called your eldest brother, and he also said he wants to leave work early today."
This is a reminder for Xie Jinghu to be tactful and sensible, not to say inappropriate words or do inappropriate things that would upset the whole family.
Xie Jinghu nodded, "Sister-in-law, I know!"
It has been two years since he officially met his legal wife, who he married in a formal ceremony. The last time he met her was when he went to Chengdu and she followed him from a distance. Xie Jinghu felt a little inexplicably nervous when he stepped into the living room.
He saw Zou Weijun at first sight.
When Zou Weijun was young, she did not rely on her beautiful facial features to win. Her advantages were her outstanding figure and temperament.
No matter how well a woman takes care of herself at this age, she will still face the loss of collagen. The only thing that can surpass a young girl is her figure and temperament, both of which happen to be Zou Weijun's advantages.
Zou Weijun is a pearl, and now that the dust on the surface has been wiped clean, she looks even more lustrous and attractive.
Mrs. Xie held Zou Weijun's hand tightly and never let go. "Isn't it very hard for you to work in Chengdu? Work is important, but health is more important. As long as you have health, you have everything. Don't rush other things. Just do them one by one slowly."
A widow raised four sons. Mrs. Xie worked very hard when she was young. Xie Jinghu disagreed with Zou Weijun's current job, but Mrs. Xie did not say a word of objection.
The old lady has worked all her life and knows how important a job is to a woman. How much money one earns is secondary. What is more important is the confidence a woman needs to make a living in this world.
Especially in Zou Weijun's case, asking her not to work would just trap her and make her depressed. If this job can heal Zou Weijun, then it's a good job!
"It's not too hard. My colleagues help me share a lot of the work. I'm just responsible for overall coordination and organization."
Zou Weijun was no longer the shy person he used to be. Now he speaks more fluently. Old Mrs. Xie nodded frequently, thinking that Zou Weijun was in a very good state.
There is no conflict between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The conflict exists between Zou Weijun and Xie Jinghu. Xie Jinghu hasn't seen such a harmonious family atmosphere for a long time. He stood at the door of the living room, not knowing whether he should go in.
Ever since the affair was exposed, Xie Qian no longer respected him, Zou Weijun no longer spoke to him, and the whole family blamed him... The house in Beijing was very big, and Xie Jinghu didn't want to go home every day after leaving the company because there was no one at home, and the bigger the house, the more deserted it was.
"Old Three, why don't you go in?"
Sister-in-law Hou Zhixiu came to the living room with a teapot to add water, and saw that Xie Jinghu was standing there like a wooden stake, not moving.
Zou Weijun then turned around and looked into Xie Jinghu's eyes.
In the hot summer, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Zou Weijun's neck.
Hearing Xie Jinghu's voice on the phone was different from seeing him in person. As soon as he saw Xie Jinghu, Zou Weijun's negative emotions surged.
How can one person act for so many years?
He plays the role of a good husband in front of Zou Weijun and a good father in everyone's eyes, but he secretly raises a family abroad!
There is no wall that is impenetrable. The news first spread to someone in the wives' circle in Beijing. Someone reminded Zou Weijun in a joking way, but she not only did not believe it, but also spoke well of Xie Jinghu.
It's so stupid and ridiculous!
If time could go back, Zou Weijun would definitely give his former self two big slaps in the face.
A man like this, for whom she actually committed suicide... After a lot of chaotic thoughts in her mind, Zou Weijun's emotions gradually calmed down. She was no longer the fool who was easily bullied two years ago. When she returned to the Xie family, she was a warrior.
Zou Weijun turned away from looking at Xie Jinghu, and at the same time broke free from her mother-in-law, Old Lady Xie's hand and stood up:
"Mom, it's getting late and I have work to do, so I'm leaving today!"
Mrs. Xie quickly grabbed Zou Weijun's wrist again and said, "I know you're busy with work, but you should at least have a meal at home. Your sister-in-law prepared food, and your brother also said he'd be back."
Hou Zhixiu thought that it didn’t matter whether they ate the meal or not.
The main reason was that the old lady insisted on notifying Xie Jinghu to come over and asked Zou Weijun to stay for dinner. Xie Jinghu must have made her feel disgusted.
Poor Hou Zhixiu couldn't tell the truth, and had to persuade her dryly: "Mom is right, it's been a long time since you came back, why don't you have a meal before leaving?"
Zou Weijun didn't say anything. Old Mrs. Xie glared at Xie Jinghu and said, "Don't you have anything to say to your wife?!"
Xie Jinghu opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
On the way back, Xie Jinghu was wondering if Zou Weijun had any conspiracy, and when he saw him in person, his mind was inevitably in a mess.
At his mother's urging, Xie Jinghu finally persuaded Zou Weijun to stay: "After dinner, I'll talk to you about Xie Qian."
For a couple who appear to be in harmony but are actually estranged, the only topic they can communicate about seems to be their children.
Zou Weijun finally turned around and looked at Xie Jinghu again, "What do you want to say about Xie Qian?"
What's the matter?
Are we talking about the 200 million yuan land purchase or the Charles Schwab Film Company?
No matter which one you mention, it is inappropriate and you will easily be scolded by the old lady.
Xie Jinghu started a topic he thought was relatively safe: "He's already finished his second year of high school this year. Shouldn't we start preparing for next year's plans now? My idea is to send him abroad, so he can see more while he's still young, then come back after completing his undergraduate studies, or continue his studies abroad—"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zou Weijun:
"This is Xie Qian's business. Xie Qian can make his own decision. The life his parents plan for him may not be what he wants."
