Zhou Xiang stopped Lu Ying who was about to follow them and said, "Lu Ying, there's no need to follow them inside the school. Give them some space."
Lu Jing was a little worried. "Sister-in-law, Sanbao is only seven years old, and he's with a bunch of students in their eighties and nineties..."
"It's okay," Zhou Xiang waved his hand. "Didn't they dare challenge the junior high school? If they can't handle it without your protection, then all their martial arts training would be in vain. We're all back now, the danger is gone, and they can handle their own conflicts."
The four of them walked back, and Lu Jing and Lu Ying kept looking back as they walked. They were used to guarding each other, and they felt uneasy when they suddenly let go of each other's hands.
Zhou Xiang shook his head secretly and didn't say anything to the two sisters. It takes time to change habits.
Ling Ran coughed lightly, "Lü Jing, have Sanbao and Yuanyuan learned martial arts?"
Lu Jing nodded, "Yes, in a few years, Haohao and Dangdang should be able to reach the state of flying over eaves and walking on walls."
"Wife~" Ling Ran took a big step and walked parallel to Zhou Xiang, "Why can't I learn it?"
Zhou Xiang stroked his chin as if thinking, "Hmm, it's probably still a matter of intelligence."
After saying that, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. Her child had a good foundation since childhood and had many wonderful ideas in his head. It must be easy for him to find the qi.
Ling Ran felt that he shouldn't have asked his wife this question. Even the fact that Lu Jing and Lu Ying learned martial arts was because of his wife to annoy him.
Back at Zhou's house, Zhou Niao, who was waiting for his sister, told her that Chief Jiang was at Zhou's house, "Dad has gone back, and Mom asked us to go back too."
"No," Zhou Xiang refused. "That's the Jiang family's business. It has nothing to do with me. If you want to go back, go ahead."
Since his sister didn't reply, Zhou Niao naturally didn't reply. "A family has already vacated the building on Second Street and is moving. They will be almost done the day after tomorrow."
"Well," Zhou Xiang nodded. "Brother, I think you're doing a good job of managing these trivial matters. Do you want to continue?"
Zhou Niao shook his head. "I don't want to care. I was forced to do that before. Now that you're back, I'll leave it to you."
"You don't have to do it yourself. Aren't Zuo Zhen and Lu Jin watching over it? You just need to give them orders."
"No, no, no," Zhou Niao shook his head repeatedly, "It's annoying enough to order them around. I'm going to take a break for a while. After the New Year, I can teach Yan'er how to paint."
Speaking of Chinese New Year, Zhou Xiang told his elder brother, "Brother, I won't be going home for Chinese New Year this year. We'll go to Ling's house to celebrate."
Zhou Niao nodded without hesitation. "Whatever you want, sister, you have done enough for the Zhou and Jiang families. You don't have to worry about them anymore. It's good to go back to the Ling family. Life in the Ling family is simple."
Zhou Xiang asked about Mei Zi and her daughter again, "Brother, why didn't our mother take care of Third Brother's child?"
Zhou Niao sighed, "I don't understand what mom is making a fuss about. My brother's family gave birth to a daughter, and she seemed to be quite nice. My brother came back to help take care of Mei Zi, and mom didn't show any dissatisfaction. But when the baby was one month old, there was a dispute over making a full-month banquet. It seemed that mom said that all the children in the family had a one-year-old banquet, but no one had a full-month banquet. My brother insisted on making a full-month banquet.
The younger brother wanted to go back to the capital, and Meizi wanted to go with him. They had another argument, so Meizi sent her niece to her parents' home. She also brought her niece back to celebrate the New Year, but she was no longer as cheerful as before.
My niece turned one year old, and my mother said she would make a birthday party. Mei Zi said that since my sister is not back, we can’t make it. This led to another argument.
Meizi took her niece back to Beijing to find a nanny to take care of her. It gave me a headache to see what they were arguing about. I really don’t understand.”
Zhou Xiang also sighed. His father became wiser as he grew older, but his mother became more confused as she grew older.
"You are not married and don't have a wife, why don't you try having one? There is no harmonious relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they are just for the same man,
The mother-in-law doesn't like her son to listen to her daughter-in-law on everything, and the daughter-in-law doesn't like her mother-in-law to interfere in the couple's affairs, it's that simple."
"According to you, the conflict started from the full moon banquet?" Zhou Niao understood a little.
Zhou Xiang nodded, "That's probably it. Meizi wanted to invite her family to attend the full moon banquet, just in time for her and the baby to move the urinal. Mom wasn't in the mood, so she made an excuse not to do it. But Third Brother supported his wife, and Mom felt like her son had become someone else's."
"Yes, yes, yes, I forgot. After the full moon banquet, my brother and Meizi went back to my mother's house to stay for one night before returning to the capital."
"Oh!" Zhou Xiang sighed heavily. She didn't want to worry about these people anymore. No matter how clearly she explained it or how thoroughly she understood it, it was useless. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was like natural enemies.
Every woman has been a daughter-in-law before, but when she becomes a mother-in-law, she is unable to put herself in her daughter-in-law's shoes.
"Brother, Meizi and Third Brother are tired of fighting in the capital and are coming back. I not only decided to sell the company, but also gave Dad's apartment to Third Brother so that they can live alone. You and Yan'er don't care about that.
Yan'er and Haohao and Dangdang have company, you can just live with me and go back to reunite during the holidays. There's no need to keep everyone together; too many people means more friction."
Mei Zi felt uneasy, and Zhou Xiang was also worried about whether his niece could play with Tongtong and Yuanyuan!
"Okay," Zhou Niao didn't want to face her nagging mother. "Of course, you'll be the one making the decisions about the company. Yan'er told me he's very rich and will provide for me in my old age. I don't care about this little bit at home. Didn't you also give me the courtyard house? It's enough for me to build."
When this issue was brought up, Zhou Xiang reminded his elder brother again, "Brother, you need to make it clear to Yan'er's mother that you should not have any more children. I don't know if you can get pregnant, but I'm telling you this in advance.
Yan'er has been through so much, even if you give birth to a daughter, it would be unfair to him, so just love him well together."
Zhou Niao nodded. "Well, considering our mother's situation and comparing her to your mother-in-law, I think it's better to be an only child. It's simpler. I can't handle too many family conflicts."
After explaining the matter of the third brother to his eldest brother, Zhou Xiang felt relieved. Fortunately, his eldest sister-in-law was not involved. Otherwise, with his mother being so troublesome, the family would have no peace of mind.
At this moment, a voice called out to her from outside, "Think about it!"
"cousin!"
When the sound came, someone came into the living room. It was A-Lian and her son.
"Alian? Jiang Yi? You're not in the capital?"
"No," A-Lian shook her head. "If you hadn't asked us to go back, we wouldn't have. We lived inside the school. My mom teaches at the junior high school, and Jiang Yi happened to be studying there."
After asking the mother and son to sit down, Zhou Xiang patted Jiang Yi's head. His little cousin seemed much more lively now. "Shouldn't you be in class today? Are you skipping class?"
"This is physical education class. Mom can't wait until tomorrow to come and see you." Jiang Yi twisted her body to avoid the blow on her head.
"Then ask Lu Jing to take you back to class?"
"Well, I'll come after school."
"By the way, I heard your grandfather is here and at Zhou's house. However, you can just come here after school. You don't have to go out of your way to see him."
"OK."
Jiang Yi followed Lu Jing away, and A-Lian then pulled Zhou Xiang aside to examine him carefully. "Very good, he hasn't changed at all."
As she spoke, tears began to fall. "If you can come back safely, Mr. will feel less guilty."
