Chapter 562: All Pretending to be Confused
Zhu Qing, who was sitting in the living room reading a newspaper, heard the door open. He couldn't help but walk over to take a look and happened to meet the other person's eyes.
This young man looks familiar.
"Hello, uncle. I'm here to bring food to Huihui."
Zhou Anan originally wanted to say that she was delivering takeout, but felt that she couldn't justify herself, so she put on a calm smile and walked in with two bags in her hands.
When Zhou Anan took the bag, she naturally placed the room key at the entrance without leaving any trace.
"You are the Xiao Zhou from the western restaurant last time."
After thinking about it, Zhu Qing matched the other person with the person in his mind. After all, he had eaten a meal with the other person.
Although he couldn't remember the other person's name, Zhu Qing still remembered his last name, and an old father's smile immediately appeared on his face.
Zhu Qing seemed to understand why his daughter had always refused to go on a blind date because of the girl's illness, the key to open the door, and the food in the girl's hand.
There's nothing to be embarrassed about hiding a boyfriend like this. It's not like you haven't seen it before.
"Yes, uncle has a very good memory."
Nodding, Zhou Anan admitted it generously and complimented the other party.
"Old Zhu, who's here? Who is this?"
He Shuixian, who was cooking in the kitchen, heard the noise and came out, looking in surprise at the young woman who was having a good chat with her husband.
Who is this young man?
Looking at the bag in the other person's hand, He Shuixian knew clearly.
Well, he is handsome and composed, and looks good.
I just don't know how far the relationship with my daughter has progressed?
"Oh, this Xiao Zhou is bringing food to Huihui. You don't need this porridge anymore."
As a parent who had already met the other party once, Zhu Qing consciously introduced the other party to his wife, his tone was very vague.
"Xiao Zhou, I'm really sorry to bother you. My Huihui can't take care of herself at all, and I'm bothering you to bring her food."
When He Shuixian heard that the other party was bringing food to her daughter, a smile spread across her face and she looked at the other party more carefully.
"You are too polite, Auntie. I feel relieved now that you are all here. I have something else to do, so I will leave first."
It felt so weird to be stared at by the two elders, so Zhou Anan thought it would be better to get away as soon as possible.
There are many things to say about his relationship with the young lady.
"Hey, Xiao Zhou, why don't you go in and say hello to Hui Hui before you leave."
Seeing that the other party was about to leave, He Shuixian, who was about to have a chat with him, quickly said something.
She hadn't even chatted with the other person for a few words and didn't know what his character was like, so why was she in such a hurry to leave?
"No, Huihui probably hasn't woken up yet, so I won't disturb her. Goodbye, uncle and aunt."
At this time, there was absolutely no room for dragging things out. Zhou Anan politely declined the two elders' polite words and walked straight out the door.
"Then come to my house next time when you have time."
He Shuixian, who had been sending the other person to the door and didn't want to force him to stay, said enthusiastically.
"OK."
Zhou An nodded politely and walked down the stairs calmly.
"This young man looks pretty good."
After the other person's back disappeared around the corner of the stairs, He Shuixian walked into the door and smiled and praised him. Then she asked her husband: "Hey, Lao Zhu, have you seen Xiao Zhou before? What is Xiao Zhou's name, what does he do, and where is his home?"
"You are checking the household registration. If you want to ask, ask your daughter."
Not wanting his wife to know that he had forgotten the other person's name and causing her to nag him, Zhu Qing put on airs and responded in a pretentious manner.
As for the fact that the other party had the key to his daughter's room, Zhu Qing thought it would be better not to tell his wife about this first, but to ask his daughter privately.
This is the power he knew first.
"Hey, you old Zhu, I asked you a few questions, and you kicked me"
Zhou Anan breathed a sigh of relief when he returned to the car. He sent a text message to the young lady and drove to the two training departments to take a look.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Anan drove back to Lizhou.
Since there is nothing to do, I have to stay at home for two more days.
"Are you going back to school again?"
While eating dinner, Wang Jingyu asked with some reluctance when he heard that his son was leaving just two nights after returning.
"I'm not going back to school yet. I'm going to Hangzhou first. I won the award for the top ten outstanding college students in the province this semester, and I have to attend the commendation meeting."
Since they have all obtained the right to travel alone, Zhou Anan also openly stated that she was going to Hangzhou to receive the award.
After staying at home for two days, it was already the end of the month. Zhou Anan, who had promised President Shi, could not miss the commendation meeting attended by the leaders of Jiang Province.
According to Dean Shi, no student from their school has received this honor for many years.
"The top ten outstanding university students in the province? Why didn't you tell me about this before?"
After hearing what his son said, Wang Jingyu's eyes widened a little and he looked at him in astonishment.
The name of this award sounds very high-end.
She had no idea about such a big thing before.
"I just received a call from the school yesterday. I thought it was just a certificate, but I didn't expect it to be so troublesome."
Regarding this issue, Zhou Anan, who always likes to keep a low profile, naturally would not shout it out in advance.
If he had known that accepting an award would be so troublesome, he would have talked to Dean Shi and just refused.
"You kid, you got such a good honor, but you still despise it."
Wang Jingyu patted his son's shoulder lightly and said in a reproachful tone.
"How about I take you to Hangzhou?"
Zhou Youliang, who was eating, spoke to his son.
"No, no, it's so far, it's too much trouble for you to drive there. Besides, I've already bought a ticket to Hangzhou."
Shaking his head, Zhou Anan wondered how could he let his father send him off.
Even the train tickets he had prepared had to be refunded in advance.
"Well, what time is the ticket for tomorrow?"
His son has become much more independent, so Zhou Youliang did not force him.
"Nine-thirty in the morning."
"Then I'll take you to the station at nine."
"OK."
After dinner, Zhou Anan went to the first floor to chat with her grandparents.
My uncle's family has moved to the third floor of their house. They cook and eat on the first floor with my grandparents. The original space on the first floor is now occupied by hardware items such as mops and small electric fans sold by my aunt.
There were some goods that could not be stored, so they were piled up in the factory rented by Zhou Anan's family.
Zhou Anan's father did everything he could to help his younger brother.
"Aye, Grandma, I'm going out for a walk."
After chatting for a while, Zhou Anan went for a walk around the village and called everyone he met uncle and aunt, since he couldn't remember any of their names anyway.
When she arrived at the edge of the square, Zhou Anan saw that her uncle's old house had been almost demolished and they were just waiting to lay the foundation and build a new house.
The old village has not yet been renovated, so the procedure for rebuilding on the original site is very simple, not to mention that my uncle-in-law, who is the director of the institute, has some connections.
I think my grandfather’s fate of falling in the old house could have been changed.
Seeing that the situation at home was getting better, Zhou Anan's heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment that she was in control of her destiny.
"Ah Liang, how did An An get such a good honor?"
After washing the dishes, Wang Jingyu saw that her son had not returned yet, so she asked her husband who was watching the news broadcast.
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
Without taking his eyes off the TV, Zhou Youliang didn't know the answer.
"Do you think it might be because of the cram school that my son opened?"
Carefully looking at the stairs, Wang Jingyu asked softly.
