Zhou Beiqing watched Sheng An Ning and a strange man coming down. Especially after seeing Sheng An Ning talking about her big belly, he stood up without wanting to get up and called her sister-in-law in a low voice.
Sheng An Ning just nodded and smiled slightly. She really didn't like the brainless Zhou Beiqing. The biggest failure of the Zhou family was giving birth to such a stupid child.
Zhou Beiqing pursed her lips and sat down silently. During this period, Zhou Nanguang and Zhong Wenqing were not in Beijing. She went out for a walk and returned home. Although Zhou Shuanglu was angry, he had no choice but to let her go home.
Moreover, because Hu Yaozong had already stated that he had forced Zhou Beiqing into a marital relationship, the higher-ups also found that this was indeed the case after an investigation.
This means that the investigation into Zhou Beiqing will be withdrawn.
The school did not pursue the matter further, and Zhou Beiqing was still able to work as a teacher.
However, Zhou Beiqing felt ashamed, so he applied to stop being a teacher and went to the school library to work as a librarian.
She didn't know that Zhou Shixun and the others were coming back today. When she got off work at noon, she was a little surprised to see the people in the living room, and at the same time, she felt a little lost.
No one told her that her parents were coming back, and she really felt like an outsider.
When Zhou Nanguang saw his daughter come back, he was still angry, but he didn't pursue the matter any further. On the contrary, Zhong Wenqing felt a little guilty when she saw her daughter. Was it because of her lack of care that her daughter became like this?
Thinking about how long they hadn't seen each other, she couldn't hold on to Zhou Beiqing's previous mistakes anymore, so she asked with a smile: "Isn't it winter vacation? Why are you still going to work? Go wash your hands and have dinner. Your eldest brother and sister-in-law are back, and your sister-in-law's cousin is here too. Remember to say hello later."
Zhou Beiqing nodded: "The library doesn't have winter vacation."
Then there was no more topic, and Zhong Wenqing had to go to the kitchen to check whether the food his aunt had cooked was good or not, and whether there was anything that Sheng Anning couldn't eat.
After all, Sheng An Ning is now in her advanced stages of pregnancy and cannot be careless at all.
Zhou Beiqing sat on the sofa, watching Zhou Shixun, Zhou Nanguang and Zhou Shuanglu chatting, and she felt like an outsider, out of place here.
She even felt a stuffiness in the air, making her feel suffocated and unable to breathe.
Fortunately, Sheng An Ning and Sheng Cheng An came down, but she didn't know how to get along well with Sheng An Ning.
And Sheng An Ning didn't want to have a good relationship with Zhou Beiqing at all. Although she had suffered so much, who knows if her brain has become better now.
After nodding to Zhou Beiqing lightly, he sat down next to Zhou Shixun with a smile: "I just talked to my cousin, and I didn't expect that our two families are really related. He mentioned that, and I also remembered that my father had an older brother who left home when he was young. It was said that he was conscripted during the war and died on the battlefield a long time ago. I didn't expect..."
After saying this, he sighed.
Zhou Shixun glanced at Sheng Chengan across from him, lowered his eyes and looked at Sheng Anning gently: "This is fate. You will have one more relative in the future, which is good."
Sheng An Ning nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I thought I had no other relatives besides you when I came to Beijing, but I didn't expect that I had a brother."
As he spoke, his eyes curved into little crescents, and he was extremely happy.
During the meal, Zhong Wenqing warmly invited Sheng Chengan to eat more, and kept picking food for him: "If you have nothing to do in the future, come to our house for dinner. An Ning is the only relative here. Look how happy she is. I have never seen her so happy."
Sheng Chengan was touched: "I am very happy too. My parents died early, and I grew up relying on the help of overseas Chinese. I haven't experienced this kind of warm family life for a long time."
Zhong Wenqing felt even more distressed: "Then come often in the future and tell me what you want to eat. I just don't know if you can get used to the food in China after being abroad for so long."
Sheng Chengan nodded repeatedly: "Sure, I still like the food in China."
Zhou Beiqing, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly asked, "You grew up abroad and speak Mandarin very well. Do all Chinese people there speak Chinese?"
Sheng An Ning bit the chicken silently. This Zhou Beiqing talks a lot. Does it make her look capable?
Sheng Chengan suddenly became serious: "This is my mother tongue, the mother tongue of millions of Chinese people abroad. How could we forget it? Moreover, when I was very young, my parents taught me to study hard and to return to China and serve our country when I had the chance in the future. That's why I came back."
Zhong Wenqing felt his blood boiling after hearing this and was very moved: "Yes, it must not be easy for you to be abroad. Many scientists in our country now have the experience of studying abroad. Bringing a lot of foreign academics back to China is a considerable risk."
Sheng Chengan sighed, "Yes, in order to prevent famous scientists from returning to China, they launched an assassination plan."
Sheng An Ning had to reposition her brother, and her performance was still outstanding, flawless, and left Zhou Beiqing speechless.
After the meal, Sheng Chengan had to leave.
Sheng An Ning was so tired that she didn't want to move. She perfunctorily sent Sheng Cheng'an to the gate and hurried back to rest. Even when she lay down, she still felt the swaying feeling of lying in the sleeper car.
Zhou Shixun also followed in and went to help Sheng An Ning massage her swollen legs. She was supposed to lie down right after she came back, but because of Sheng Cheng'an's disruption, Sheng An Ning had to sit for several more hours.
Sheng An Ning felt a little embarrassed and shrank her legs: "I haven't taken a shower for several days, and I stink. I'll lie down for a while and take a shower, and then you can change the sheets."
She was so tired that she didn't want to move, so she lay down without even changing her clothes.
Zhou Shixun didn't mind: "It's okay, I'll rub it for you, otherwise you will feel worse when you wake up."
Sheng An Ning closed her eyes but still felt the bed moving around, and even heard the roar of the train. She couldn't help but sigh, "It's too painful to go out. I don't want to take the train anymore."
But then she thought about it and it didn't make sense. If she didn't take the train, how would she go to see Zhou Shixun in the future? She started to wail in her heart again.
Seeing her whining and making a fuss, Zhou Shixun asked casually, "Chinese New Year is coming in two days, how about inviting your cousin to come to your house to celebrate the New Year?"
Sheng An Ning naturally had no objection, but she didn't know if Zhou Shixun's invitation was sincere. She thought for a while and said with a smile, "Let's talk about it later. I don't know what he thinks, and it's not good for him to come in when our family celebrates the New Year."
Zhou Shixun had no objection: "He is also alone, and he is from your mother's family. It's good for him to come and celebrate the New Year together. Besides, it's also good for you to have a brother from your mother's family to take care of you when I'm not in Beijing in the future."
After that, he paused and said, "But you can't tell anyone about my work and Dad's work."
