When Sheng An Ning lived in the compound, he didn't interact much with his neighbors and his relationship with them was average. He had only heard of a family with the surname Niu.
It seems that the relationship between the two families is just so-so. When Zhong Wenqing was around, they didn't seem to have any friendship. Why does he want to introduce someone to Zhou Chaoyang as soon as he heard that he was back? It's really presumptuous.
The aunt was frightened by Zhou Chaoyang's temper. She didn't dare to say anything and went back to the kitchen, feeling annoyed that she had said too much.
In fact, deep down, she also hoped that Zhou Chaoyang could find another one, and what the Niu family’s sister-in-law said today was right. Zhou Chaoyang was considered a widow, and it was impossible for her to find a young man to marry.
I can only find someone whose wife has died or who is remarried.
Zhou Chaoyang immediately felt that the noodles in his bowl tasted terrible. "It was really unlucky. This Niu used to have a good relationship with our family, but in the end, I and her daughter, who was my classmate, didn't get along well at school and even had a fight. My mother must have protected me, and later our two families didn't interact much."
Sheng An Ning smiled: "Then there's no need to take it to heart. She said that because her daughter married well and she wanted to show off in front of you."
Zhou Chaoyang sneered: "What's the point of showing off? Niu Xiaoxia just married a worker, and now she is probably the workshop director. What's there to show off? If she dares to say it in front of me, I will ask how her daughter got married."
Sheng An Ning thought for a moment and said, "So, her daughter is considered to be marrying down?"
After all, although the children in the compound don’t care about marrying someone of equal social status, they do marry into other families that are not ordinary, with a few exceptions.
Zhou Chaoyang clicked his tongue: "Of course, that's right, it's good enough that someone is willing to marry me, I almost couldn't get married."
After saying that, he quickly shook his head: "Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about them, it's too unlucky. Dad took me to eat fried dough twist oil tea today. I'll take you there later. That was my favorite when I was a child. The taste hasn't changed at all. The butter in that oil tea is so fragrant."
When it comes to food, Mu Xiaowan has a lot to talk about, and the two of them chat happily.
Sheng An Ning has been wondering if Zhou Hongyun didn't come back at night. Did something happen to him? Was he really kept by his sons for one night?
The next day, Zhou Hongyun still didn't come back, so Sheng Anning discussed with Zhou Nanguang: "If aunt hasn't come back at night, should we go over to see her?"
Zhou Nanguang was also worried that Zhou Hongyun had reconciled with the children at home and wanted to stay for two days. Their presence seemed like urging someone to come. After thinking for a while, he said, "I'd better go and take a look tomorrow morning."
Sheng An Ning nodded: "Well, if the children know they are wrong and admit their mistakes to their aunt, let their aunt stay at home for a few more days. If she wants to come back, she can come back, but it's okay if she doesn't want to."
Although he didn't believe that Zhou Hongyun's two ungrateful sons could repent, they were old and wanted to go home, so it would be better if they could repent.
Let Zhou Hongyun enjoy two days of happiness.
Sheng Anning didn't have classes in the morning, and because Zhou Chaoyang was there, she was lazy and didn't go to school.
The two of them went to send the child off together, and then walked home slowly together. Zhou Chaoyang told Sheng Anning how good the base was, "Except that it's not as big as Beijing, there are not as many cars as Beijing, there are no trams, and there are not as many large shopping malls as Beijing. Otherwise it's really convenient, and I feel the climate is similar to Beijing."
Sheng An Ning was looking forward to it: "I am thinking about graduating quickly and then taking the child to find your eldest brother."
Zhou Chaoyang laughed and said, "If you go, my eldest brother will be so happy. He is alone every day now, with a cold and stern face. Most people don't dare to say hello to him."
Sheng Anning was very happy. Zhou Shixun was not cold at all. He had a cold and overbearing personality. He was just not good at speaking and did not like to interact with others.
Zhou Chaoyang was very envious: "If you go with Zhou Zhou and the others, I will have a place to play. If you go to the movies with my elder brother in the future, I can take care of the children. They will need money when they grow up, and I can give them money. The only request is that they take care of me, their aunt, in my old age."
"After all, I have no children."
Sheng An Ning hesitated for a moment, glanced at Zhou Chaoyang with some heartache, and almost blurted out some words, but she tried to suppress them: "Don't be too arbitrary when speaking, the future is so long, who knows what will happen."
Zhou Chaoyang looked at Sheng Anning in shock: "Sister-in-law, you don't think I will get married, do you? That's impossible! If I wanted to get married, I wouldn't miss Song Xiuyan."
After saying this, he rolled his eyes and said, "I recently read a sentence, except for Wushan, there is no cloud!"
Sheng An Ning was afraid that if she said too much, she would reveal the truth, so she simply kept silent.
On the way, the two were still discussing taking a rest and going shopping after getting home.
Unexpectedly, there were uninvited guests at home.
Niu Xiaoxia and her mother Zhu Hongying.
Sheng An Ning often saw these two people in the compound, but they didn't talk much. Now she was quite surprised that the thing they had just talked about yesterday came today.
My aunt was looking very embarrassed, and there were two cups of brewed tea on the small table in the yard.
She was just a nanny, and it was not easy for her to chase away the guests who came to the host's house.
Niu Xiaoxia saw Zhou Chaoyang and stood up with a smile on her face: "Chaoyang, you're back? My mother told me yesterday that you were back, so I took a leave of absence this morning to come and see you. I haven't seen you for so long, and you haven't changed at all."
Zhou Chaoyang narrowed his eyes and smiled: "You have changed a lot, you look a little old."
Niu Xiaoxia's smile froze for a moment: "How long will you stay this time? I'm working at the Women's Federation now. If you have any questions, you can come to me. We are classmates and grew up together. I will definitely help you."
Zhou Chaoyang said bluntly: "I'm afraid that's not necessary. Sorry I can't let you watch the fun."
Seeing that Zhou Chaoyang didn't give her any face, Zhu Hongying said in a bad tone: "Chaoyang, you have a bad temper now. How come you are worse than when you were a child? You were so cute when you were a child. Every time you saw me, you would smile and call me auntie."
Sheng An Ning felt that the mother and daughter were sick. Why did they feel uncomfortable going to someone else's house for no reason?
Zhou Chaoyang didn't indulge them at all: "I can't help it. I have a good temper and I'm a bad person."
Niu Xiaoxia touched her mother's arm to stop her from talking, then smiled at Zhou Chaoyang: "Chaoyang, you are still the same as when you were a child, a hedgehog. My mother heard that you are still single, so she wanted to introduce you to a girl. She is 37 years old this year. Her wife just died two years ago, leaving behind two children. You can go there and be a ready-made mother. I tell you, with your current conditions, you can only find someone like this..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Chaoyang picked up a cup of tea from the table and threw it at Niu Xiaoxia: "Get out!"
Before Sheng An Ning could react, she heard a bang at the door...
