"Pearl! Mr. Zhou's health is not very good. He is only awake for two or three hours a day, and he is sleeping for the rest of the time. The day before I came back, Mr. Zhou was just moved out of the intensive care unit and met with Bingchen." Tao Jiadong said.
"Oh." Zhao Zhenzhu responded.
Tao Jiadong originally wanted to wait for Zhao Zhenzhu to ask about the meeting between Zhou Bingchen and Zhou Jin, but seeing that Zhao Zhenzhu looked uninterested, Tao Jiadong didn't know what to say.
Zhou Jin had three children in her life.
The eldest daughter is Zhou Ruonan, the second son is Zhou Rufeng, and the youngest daughter is Zhou Yinan.
Zhou Rufeng and his wife died more than 20 years ago.
Five years ago, Zhou Jin learned that Zhou Bingchen was still alive. He was so upset that he fell seriously ill.
Taking the opportunity of taking care of Zhou Jin, Zhou Ruonan moved into Zhou Jin's house with her family.
In the past few years, Zhou Ruonan has presented herself to the outside world as the successor of the Zhou family.
In her heart, she had long considered everything about Zhou Jin as hers. Zhou Jin's connections, Zhou Jin's property, everything about Zhou Jin, Zhou Ruonan was unwilling to let go.
Zhou Bingchen's return is bound to affect Zhou Ruonan's interests.
On the first day Tao Jiadong and his friends arrived in Beijing, Zhou Jin was admitted to the intensive care unit, and it was Zhou Ruonan who met them at Zhou's house.
After looking at Zhou Bingchen for a long time, Zhou Ruonan asked Tao Jiadong very impolitely, "Could it be that this time she saw that her father was dying, so she found a fake to fool her father?"
Tao Jiadong and the others were irritated by Zhou Ruonan. After sitting in Zhou's house for a few minutes, they said goodbye.
On the first day that Tao Jiadong returned to Taohua Town, Zhou Jin was transferred to the general ward, and Tao Jiadong and Zhou Bingchen were immediately called to meet him.
After seeing Zhou Bingchen's face that looked very similar to his son Zhou Rufeng, as well as the marks on Zhou Bingchen's body, Zhou Jin couldn't help but burst into tears.
Zhou Jin was running out of energy, and after saying a few words, he had no strength left.
Zhou Ruonan jumped out to act as Zhou Jin's "spokesperson".
After learning that Zhou Bingchen had married and had children in the countryside, Zhou Ruonan belittled Zhao Zhenzhu, the "nephew's wife" whom she had never met. She also said that this kind of country woman would not help Zhou Bingchen's future at all, and it would be better to divorce her. She had already picked out a suitable girl for Zhou Bingchen to marry.
Zhou Bingchen's expression changed immediately.
Zhou Jin also got angry and told Zhou Ruonan to "get out".
Tao Jiadong would definitely not say those things Zhou Ruonan said to Zhao Zhenzhu in front of her, lest it be suspected of provoking her.
If his daughter-in-law met an aunt who was rude, unreasonable and picky, Tao Jiadong would definitely wish that the two of them would stay away from each other for the rest of their lives.
However, Tao Jiadong had no choice but to do as Mr. Zhou instructed.
Tao Jiadong thought for a moment and asked, "Zhenzhu! Can you take the children to Beijing during the winter vacation? Mr. Zhou wants to see you."
"What did Zhou Bingchen say?" Zhao Zhenzhu glanced at Tao Jiadong and asked.
"Ah?" Tao Jiadong was stunned.
"Does Zhou Bingchen want us to go to Beijing, or does he not want us to go to Beijing?" Zhao Zhenzhu asked.
"Bingchen didn't say anything, but he will probably call you in the next few days." Tao Jiadong smiled ingratiatingly at Zhao Zhenzhu.
"Okay, I understand." Zhao Zhenzhu nodded and said lightly.
"No matter what Bingchen chooses, I believe you can figure it out." Tao Jiadong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Zhenzhu, Jiadong, what are you two talking about? I don't understand." Wu Meiyu asked.
Zhao Qingshan moved his lips, wanting to say something, but didn't say it.
"Sister-in-law, it's nothing. Everything will be clear when Bingchen calls back." Tao Jiadong said with a smile.
"Can't you tell me now?" Wu Meiyu was a little unhappy.
"Mom, don't make things difficult for Uncle Tao. Let me tell you! If I'm not mistaken, Zhou Bingchen and Old Zhou have become relatives. However, the Zhou family may think that a village woman like me is not worthy of Zhou Bingchen, and they are advising him to divorce and find someone else. Zhou Bingchen is still considering it. Uncle Tao, am I guessing right?" Zhao Zhenzhu said with a sneer.
"Hehehe..." Tao Jiadong laughed awkwardly.
Can he say that Zhao Zhenzhu guessed everything correctly?
"What? Zhou Bingchen actually wants a divorce? It's a waste of all the good things I said about him in front of Zhenzhu. Jiadong, what do you think, what does it mean that Bingchen is still considering it now? Does he really want to divorce Zhenzhu?" Wu Meiyu was angry.
"No, no, Bingchen didn't say he wanted a divorce. Sister-in-law, it wasn't Mr. Zhou who said the divorce, it was Bingchen's aunt Zhou Ruonan who said that. Mr. Zhou was sick and had difficulty speaking a few words. When Zhou Ruonan asked Zhou Bingchen to divorce, Mr. Zhou even scolded her." Tao Jiadong smiled awkwardly and said.
"Where is Zhou Bingchen? Didn't he curse back? As the saying goes, it's better to destroy a temple than to break up a relationship. Bingchen, the eldest aunt, is really unreasonable." Wu Meiyun was still furious.
"At that time, Bingchen probably didn't want to irritate the old man, so he didn't say anything. He and Zhenzhu have a good relationship! They probably don't want to divorce," said Tao Jiadong.
In fact, when saying this, Tao Jiadong couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
After leaving the ward, Zhou Bingchen went straight back to school.
The next day, Tao Jiadong went to school to find Zhou Bingchen, wanting to ask him what he was thinking.
After all, the candidates for "nephew's wife" that Zhou Ruonan picked for Zhou Bingchen not only had excellent family backgrounds, but were also young and beautiful.
No matter which one Zhou Bingchen married, he would definitely be able to work ten years less, if not twenty years less.
Compared with those rich young ladies, Zhao Zhenzhu, a village woman, has no chance at all except for her beauty.
Unfortunately, Tao Jiadong did not find Zhou Bingchen.
The school said that Zhou Bingchen and his classmates had started a one-week closed training and were not allowed to leave the school during this period.
Tao Jiadong had no choice but to leave in disappointment.
Tao Jiadong felt that if he had not brought Zhou Bingchen back to the Zhou family, the marriage between Zhao Zhenzhu and Zhou Bingchen would not have endured such a test.
Therefore, after much consideration, Tao Jiadong revealed the news to Zhao Zhenzhu in advance.
Let Zhao Zhenzhu be mentally prepared so that she won’t be overwhelmed by the bad news.
"The Zhou family is really going too far. How is Zhenzhu not worthy of Bingchen? They have been married for more than seven years and have two children. Can the Zhou family just say they are not worthy?" Wu Meiyu became more and more excited as she spoke.
"Mom, don't be angry. Whether they are suitable or not is up to others to say. Bingchen hasn't said anything yet! Everything depends on Bingchen's decision." Zhao Zhenzhu patted Wu Meiyun on the back and consoled her softly.
"Zhenzhu! Bingchen is not a heartless man. He will not abandon you and your children." Wu Meiyu held Zhao Zhenzhu's hand tightly and said.
"If my brother-in-law dares to abandon me, I will make him pay even if I have to sacrifice my life!" Zhao Tianyu was also angry.
Such a good sister, such good nephews and nieces.
How could the Zhou family despise them?
