Zhou Ziqin knew Xiao Hongmei before marrying Gu Qingcheng.
She also knew that Xiao Hongmei was only one step away from marrying Gu Qingcheng.
In fact, Xiao Hongmei and others are complete strangers to Zhou Ziqin.
She hadn't even met this woman.
But Xiao Hongmei has another identity - her husband's ex-girlfriend.
Zhou Ziqin is a noble young lady, and she also has a certain amount of pride.
She won't bother with irrelevant people, and she won't be jealous.
But Xiao Hongmei is different——
"I heard she's not doing well!"
Speaking of which, Xiao Hongmei's family background is somewhat similar to Zhou Ziqin's.
Xiao Hongmei's father is a veteran and her mother is a lady from a scholarly family.
After liberation, Xiao's father was transferred back to the capital, and his mother went to Shuimu to teach.
Four years ago, before the storm came, Xiao Hongmei lived a carefree life and was even recommended to study in the country of goose because of her wealthy family background.
The year after Xiao Hongmei left, something happened to her grandfather.
His mother was implicated, but fortunately, Xiao's father did his best to save her.
However, because of this incident, Xiao's father's future was hindered and he was "transferred" to Jizhou.
Xiao Hongmei is better off, after all, she is not in the country.
However, this year, the two brothers had a complete falling out and the experts withdrew.
The brothers who were once close friends finally became opponents.
Xiao Hongmei's situation became awkward.
She had to go back home!
After returning to China, Xiao Hongmei's situation became even more difficult.
...Originally, these had nothing to do with Zhou Ziqin.
But for some reason, Zhou Ziqin just felt guilty.
If nothing unexpected happened, the person who had been protected by Gu Qingcheng and had lived a good life should be Xiao Hongmei.
All the happiness she and Zhou Ziqin have now was stolen from Xiao Hongmei.
With this thought, Zhou Ziqin felt even more guilty and even had a strong sense of unease——
After all, stolen things do not belong to you, and there will always be a day when they will be taken back by someone else.
Zhou Ziqin doesn't want to lose her husband, and she doesn't want to lose her current happy life!
Zhou Ziqin was plagued by negative emotions such as entanglement, contradiction, hesitation, worry, etc., which made her a little depressed.
Gu Qingcheng did not rush to respond to Zhou Ziqin's topic, but reached out and held Zhou Ziqin's wrist.
Zhou Ziqin: ...
She looked at her husband's handsome and thoughtful face, then looked down at her wrist and his long, white fingers.
Uh, if she was not mistaken, her husband was taking her pulse?
No! They were chatting, and her husband didn't respond. He actually dropped the book in his hand and walked straight up to her.
And, he seems to be taking her pulse?
Also, my husband actually knows Chinese medicine?
Although she knew her husband was omnipotent, he always gave Zhou Ziqin unexpected surprises.
No, now is not the time to think about these things. What should I be thinking about?
Zhou Ziqin's mind was in a mess, and she had no idea what her husband was doing.
"Xiaoqin, you're pregnant!"
Pregnant women are indeed prone to having wild thoughts.
If not addressed in time, it may develop into prenatal depression.
Zhou Ziqin: (⊙_⊙)
I am pregnant?
How come I don’t know?
Also, we are talking about Xiao Hongmei.
Zhou Ziqin's brain was still in a state of confusion. For a moment, she didn't know whether she should be happy or continue to be entangled.
Gu Qingcheng took her hand and let her sit on a chair beside her.
She squatted down and looked Zhou Ziqin in the eye. "Ziqin, do you know why I didn't go abroad with Xiao Hongmei?"
Zhou Ziqin: "Why?"
"Because Xiao Hongmei and I have a disagreement on a matter of principle."
"Principles? What principles?"
"Xiao Hongmei hopes that after we marry, we can start a new family."
Zhou Ziqin: ...That’s right.
Aren’t they now a brand new independent little family?
Both sets of parents were present, but neither side interfered in the lives of the young couple.
The three of them lived a happy and fulfilling life.
And this kind of life really should belong to Xiao Hongmei.
When Gu Qingcheng saw Zhou Ziqin's expression changing, she knew she was still stuck in a dead end.
She gently held Zhou Ziqin's hand and continued, "It's different! The small family Xiao Hongmei wants is different from the small family we have now."
"She doesn't want me to have too much involvement with my parents, brothers and sisters, nor does she like me to have any contact with the folks back home!"
"How can this be possible? You didn't just pop out of a rock, how could you possibly cut off contact with your family and fellow villagers?"
Zhou Ziqin's thoughts were finally stimulated by Gu Qingcheng and began to run along the normal track.
"Yes! You see, this is the biggest difference between you and Xiao Hongmei."
Gu Qingcheng raised her eyes and looked deeply at Zhou Ziqin, "Not only am I not Sun Wukong, I'm also a Phoenix Man."
"Phoenix Man? What does that mean?"
The generation gap made Zhou Ziqin unable to understand this derogatory term used in later generations.
Gu Qingcheng explained with a smile, "A golden phoenix flew out of the mountain valley, relying on his own ability to get a rich and powerful wife, and then brought his family to live off his wife's soft rice!"
"Nonsense! You're not some Phoenix man! You're a dragon soaring in the sky!"
Zhou Ziqin quit immediately.
"What Phoenix Man? He's clearly looking down on you and humiliating you!"
