What kind of mess is this? Wen Ziqing frowned.
What’s strange is that the female educated youth actually agreed to Zhou Zhigang’s inexplicable request?
Pregnant? Returning to the city? Liu Moli, the educated youth who looks like Zhao Yunxiang? Zhou Hongming? Zhou Zhigang?
This series of question marks makes it clear: there is a conspiracy against Zhou Zhixin tonight.
Remembering how the little girl had insisted on coming to Widow He's house an hour ago, Wen Ziqing became even more uneasy. Could it be that the little girl could really hear the conversation between Zhou Chunping, his father, and his son? Otherwise, how could the little girl be so prescient?
After asking Zhou Daniu to pull off his socks and stuff them into his mouth, Wen Ziqing took out a small piece of hemp rope and tied Zhou Daniu's hands.
Wen Ziqing tied the knot very trickily, it was a horse buckle commonly used in the army. It would have been fine if Zhou Daniu just lay there obediently without struggling, but if he struggled, the rope would become tighter and tighter, and finally cut into his flesh.
Zhou Daniu looked at Wen Ziqing's back pitifully. He dared to swear that he had explained everything clearly and had not left out anything.
By the way, Widow He’s niece looks 70% like Zhou Zhixin’s daughter-in-law when viewed from behind, and she also has that kind of relationship with Zhou Hongming. Could it be that the woman he caught cheating that night was Widow He’s niece, and not Zhao Yunxiang as he thought?
Zhou Daniu broke out in a cold sweat when he remembered how he had laughed at Zhou Zhixin in front of him because the hat on his head had changed color.
Zhou Zhixin was a soldier, strong and healthy. If he believed his own nonsense and went home to beat Zhao Yunxiang to vent his anger, wouldn't that be his fault?
"Mmm! Mmm~!" Zhou Daniu struggled violently when he thought of this.
Wen Ziqing walked a distance and heard Zhou Daniu struggling. He didn't want to pay attention to him, but he was worried that Zhou Daniu hadn't explained anything clearly. Wen Ziqing stood there hesitant for two seconds, then turned back.
"Mmm~Mmm~." Zhou Daniu's eyes showed surprise when he saw Wen Ziqing coming back.
The winter weather was already very cold, and at night, water would freeze to ice. Zhou Daniu wondered if he would be frozen to death tomorrow morning after lying here all night. Seeing that Wen Ziqing was willing to come back, Zhou Daniu felt a glimmer of hope.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Wen Ziqing looked down at Zhou Daniu, who was curled up on the ground, his eyes filled with coldness. If Zhou Daniu was talking nonsense and trying to deceive him, Wen Ziqing didn't mind letting Zhou Daniu have a good taste of his fists and feet.
"Yeah." Zhou Daniu nodded vigorously, fearing that Wen Ziqing would ignore him if she got unhappy.
Wen Ziqing bent down and untied the ropes binding Zhou Daniu's hands. As for the smelly socks in Zhou Daniu's mouth, Wen Ziqing glanced at them and turned his head away. The meaning was clear: You can do it yourself.
Zhou Daniu quickly pulled the smelly socks out of his mouth and said, "Brother, I forgot to tell you. It was too dark that night, and I didn't see clearly. I mistook Liu Moli for Zhixin's wife. Today, I even stopped Zhou Zhixin and said a bunch of nonsense to him." To be honest, if Liu Moli hadn't been wearing a military coat that night, Zhou Daniu wouldn't have thought of Zhao Yunxiang. After all, military coats are rare, and Zhou Zhixin is the only officer in Zhoujia Village.
"What? Do you have a guilty conscience?" Wen Ziqing raised the corners of his mouth, looking like he was mocking Zhou Daniu.
"No, it's my fault. I misunderstood Zhou Zhixin's wife, Zhao Yunxiang." The more Zhou Daniu thought about it, the more he felt he had let Zhou Zhixin down. He said, "A few days ago, I caught that educated youth, Liu Moli, having an affair with Zhou Hongming at the brigade headquarters. It was dark at the time, and I mistakenly identified the wrong person."
When Zhou Daniu said this, he looked at Wen Ziqing with some fear. Wen Ziqing's eyes were cold and he could not see any emotion, which made Zhou Daniu feel uneasy.
Just when Zhou Daniu thought Wen Ziqing would ignore Zhou Zhixin's affairs, Wen Ziqing spoke up: "Do you want to get married?"
Wen Ziqing looked down at Zhou Daniu with a serious look in his eyes.
Zhou Daniu nodded and looked at Wen Ziqing pitifully.
Everyone in Zhoujia Village knew that Zhou Daniu was desperate to get married. As long as she was a woman, even if she was a little ugly, he wouldn't be picky. Women! They were all the same after all, with the lights off.
"If you want to get married, come with me." Wen Ziqing stretched out a foot and kicked Zhou Daniu, who was sitting on the ground and didn't dare to get up, and once again confirmed the vague idea in his heart.
At Zhou Chunping's home, Zhou Chunping was so angry that he was jumping up and down.
"Boss, did you really see your third brother come home?" Zhou Chunping asked for the sixth time.
"Dad, I saw it clearly just now. My third brother was following us the whole time. But when we turned around, he disappeared. Where else could he have gone if not home?" Zhou Zhigang said, a little unhappy. Was it wrong for him to remind his third brother when he didn't follow? It was Dad who decided to lead his third brother to Widow He's house, and it was Dad who decided to go home and find another solution. How could he be blamed for not seeing his third brother when he got home?
"Forget it, forget it. Stop talking about this useless stuff. Make some food later, mix this powder in, and find a way to get that little bastard to eat it." Zhou Chunping pulled out a paper bag from his pocket. After thinking for a moment, he pulled out another bag and said, "Be careful, don't spill it! My nobleman said this stuff is hard to come by and it's very valuable!"
"Dad, what can I do? I only know how to roll noodles." Zhou Zhigang was a little dumbfounded. If Zhou Chunping hadn't wanted Li Chunjiao to know what happened tonight, he would have gone back to his room and woken Li Chunjiao up to do the cooking. Cooking and other things were women's forte!
"Noodles are just noodles, what's there to be picky about? Noodles are not something you can eat at any time. It's a good thing for that little bastard that he can have a last meal before he dies." Zhou Chunping complained.
Zhou Zhigang pretended not to hear Zhou Chunping's complaints. Zhou Chunping was the coldest person in this family. Just two days ago, he'd been so proud of Zhou Zhixin, but now, when he turned around and threatened to kill him, Zhou Chunping didn't even blink.
Tonight, Zhou Zhixin always felt that there was a pair of eyes watching him secretly.
Zhou Zhixin looked back several times, but didn't see anyone. It seemed he was being too suspicious. Zhou Zhixin smiled wryly.
Zhou Zhixin knew he wasn't in the right state, and he was trying to adjust. But when it came to Zhao Yunxiang's situation, he couldn't calm down.
The fact that Zhao Yunxiang had returned to the village instead of returning home had become a knot in Zhou Zhixin's heart. On one side was his mother, and on the other was his wife, neither of whom would give in, leaving Zhou Zhixin feeling indescribably frantic. This time, if he didn't quickly arrange for Yunxiang to join the army, who knew what the consequences would be!
