Jiang Weizhong shook his head firmly, "No, my elder sister has already told me why she didn't come back to pick me up. I don't blame her anymore. There's no need for me to lie to you about this."
Zhou's mother turned and looked at her little girl, and Zhou Xiang nodded calmly.
"No!" Zhou's mother couldn't stand this shock. She had been worried and nervous for more than a thousand days. Her little girl was trapped in the tiger's den, but she actually rescued the person who assisted the tiger.
Zhu Hang was sitting close by and moved quickly to catch his mother-in-law's falling body.
"Sister!" Jiang Weizhong stood up. "Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Old Lady Liu looked at her fainted daughter with disdain and said, "Second brother, go with Zhu Hang to get your mother back to the house. She can't stand it any more."
"Oh." Zhou Yu was scared. Her uncle was an executioner, so she wanted to stay away from him.
Zhou Xiang sighed deeply, "Jiang Weizhong, you've been imprisoned for 40 years. You still don't understand many social customs. All you have left are memories from your childhood. Your eldest sister has endured so much stress, her emotions are so volatile, it's no wonder she's fainted. You've ruined a good meal. Do you think everyone will still have an appetite after hearing this?"
"I, I," Jiang Weizhong was at a loss, "I just feel that my elder sister is too good to me, and I feel unworthy of it."
"If you want to live a normal life, you have to learn the little things that ordinary people do. Forget it, your old mother is still alive, so you can talk to her! It's her responsibility to teach you."
Old Lady Liu stared into her granddaughter's eyes, "Do you hate him?"
Zhou Xiang nodded calmly. "My feelings are similar to yours. I hate you, but I also have a family connection that I can't shake off. I'm very unhappy. The only thing I'm thankful for is that he was forced. If he was willing and obsessed with that kind of research, I wouldn't have brought him back. Everyone else was taken away, and I was the only one who brought him back with this face. I've finally explained it to you and my mother."
Old Lady Liu sighed. She had made too many wrong decisions in her life, especially leaving her son in her hometown. This was her biggest mistake. "I'll take him to the capital."
Zhou Xiang remained noncommittal. "The capital may not be suitable for him, but he is your son, you make your own decision."
The dinner ended in a bad mood. Zhou wanted to ask Ling Ran to see the teacher off while she went to see her mother. Her mother was really too weak to bear the pain.
Father Zhou heated up the food. Even though the adults didn't want to eat, the children still wanted to eat! Humph! He wanted to eat too. Why should he starve just for Jiang?
Old Lady Liu also pulled her son to sit at the table. It was her eldest daughter who had messed up the dinner, so what did her son have to do with it? Her granddaughter had already said that her son didn't understand the ways of the world.
It was no use glaring at Zhou's father, the culprit just refused to leave.
Zhou Xiang fed his unconscious mother a spoonful of Pei Yuan liquid, called the children out from his nephew's room, and sat back at the dining table.
"Let's go and eat. Mom hasn't eaten home-cooked food for a long time."
"Okay, okay!" Tongtong ran the fastest and occupied her mother's side. Yuanyuan quickly occupied her aunt's other side because her uncle-in-law was not there!
Haohao and Dangdang simply sat opposite their mother so that they could look at her carefully. "Mom, do you miss us?"
"Think about it, tell me, have you all gone to school?"
Haohao: "Yes, we are in the same class."
Dangdang: “We are all in the third grade.”
Tongtong: "We went to the 'Xiang Zi Zi' school. Mom, why did you use the character 'Dang' for my younger brother but not the characters 'Hao' and 'Tong' for me and my older brother?"
Zhou Xiang rubbed his daughter's head vigorously, "When naming the bodyguard company, your father insisted on putting the two names together. Isn't it only appropriate to say 'take it for granted'?
Later, I named your eldest brother Haohao, but your father was lazy and just called him Haohaodangdang. The word "dang" didn't sound nice, so it became Dangdang. Your eldest uncle named you Tongtong."
"Wow, there are so many things to pay attention to when naming?" Tongtong exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes!" Zhou Xiang agreed with his daughter, "Naming is the most troublesome thing."
Over there, the mother and son (aunt and nephew) were chattering while eating.
The mother and son here were very silent, picking up food in silence and eating in silence.
Putting down his bowl and chopsticks, Jiang Weizhong looked at his mother and said, "I want to see my elder sister."
Old Lady Liu stood up and said, "I'll take you there."
When Zhou Yu saw his uncle come in, he immediately ran away and said, "I'm going to eat."
Old Lady Liu scoffed, "Another one who can't stand it. Zhu Hang, get out!"
"Okay." Zhu Hang turned and left the room.
Jiang Weizhong squatted down at the head of his elder sister's bed and said, "Sister, I'm sorry. I was wrong. Please wake up!"
Old Lady Liu pulled a stool over and sat down, muttering to the man who was obviously awake on the bed: "Look at you, you are already over sixty, how can you be so intolerant? It's a good thing that Wei Zhong can get out and gain freedom. We can slowly change him.
To put it bluntly, it's better for him to cut others with a knife than for others to cut his flesh with a knife, right? Do you expect Wei Zhong to be the one who suffers a great crime?
Being a coward is not shameful. In that situation, it is right to protect yourself. Do you really want to fight to the death? What if you can't stand it? Wouldn't I lose my son completely?"
Mother Zhou slowly opened her eyes. "Mom, you are speaking from your own perspective. Have you ever thought about me? How much injustice has my little girl suffered because of her father and Old Man Zhou? How many years has she worked hard to completely suppress the behemoth Kong family?
This time, for Wei Zhong, I personally went into the tiger's den. Who knew that Wei Zhong was actually a tiger in the tiger's den? How do you want me to face my little girl?
