Zhou Xiang let his lover help him get dressed. "Where are Haohao and the others?"
The most worthless thing is that I didn’t accompany my children in their growth. Comparing the two, the worthlessness of my behavior this time is even greater.
On one side is guilt, on the other side is resentment, these two emotions are constantly tearing at my heart, making it impossible for me to find a balance between my children and my biological mother and siblings.
The more guilty you feel, the more resentful you become!
Ling Ran carefully dressed his wife, "They are already in the restaurant, waiting for you to have breakfast."
These days after returning home, although his wife did not obey the children's every command, he also felt the guilt in his wife's heart, "Wife, life always faces many choices. In the past, you always made choices quickly and gave up decisively. Now, you still gave up decisively, but your heart is still struggling.
To put it bluntly, without you, your mother-in-law would have lived like this, which she could never have imagined in her dreams. There is no need to be reluctant to let go, you don't owe anyone anything.
Including Doctor Cao, you know what happened to Doctor Cao and Cao Xiaosong in their previous lives. In this life, their remaining days are just a collection of scraps."
Zhou wanted to raise her hand and pinch her lover's face, "Okay! I'll listen to you." She had to reassure the person who truly cared about her.
Ling Ran let the claws on his face play tricks on him, "Aren't you going to watch the game? Today is New Year's Day!"
Today is the security guard ranking competition. Zhou doesn’t know whether she wants to go or not. She doesn’t want to see her mother for the time being.
"No, you go!" Zhou Xiang let go of his lover's face and turned around to wash up.
Since his wife didn't go, Ling Ran naturally didn't go either. He also felt a little uncomfortable, but he was more open-minded than his wife. After all, it wasn't his own mother who treated him like that.
After breakfast, Zhou Niao and Zhou Hua took a group of children back to Zhou's house, accompanied by Lu Ying. Lu Jing was given a holiday by Zhou Xiang.
She gave Lv Jing a spoonful of nourishing liquid and told her to drink it immediately. "Go on a date with Xie Chen! Your cousin is worried and dislikes Xiao Chen showing off his son."
"Today is New Year's Day holiday."
"It doesn't matter. The park only has so few people. We don't need many people watching over it."
Zhou's mother felt even more heartbroken when her little girl didn't come back.
Old Lady Liu sorted through the old clothes her eldest daughter had gathered. "If I say anything to you, you'll probably complain again. Weifang said that to Xiang Xiang when he moved out. Have you changed? You take Xiang Xiang's efforts for granted. No one owes you anything."
After picking out the clothes suitable for the eldest son and putting them into the cardboard box, he called out to the outside, "Wei Zhong, come up and move the things."
"Okay!" someone responded from below.
"We're leaving. New Year's Day is the first day of a new beginning. Wei Zhong and I will spend it alone. Don't call us during the New Year. When Wei Fang comes back, she will also come to my place to celebrate the New Year."
Father Zhou happily prepared delicious food for the children. Even if his daughter and her husband didn't come back, it was enough for the children to come back. It wasn't like they would completely stop contacting each other. It was better to stay away from them.
At noon, Fang Xin followed Jiankangkang to Zhou's house and said, "Auntie Zhouxiang, you haven't changed at all."
Zhou Xiang looked at the graceful young lady in front of him and said with a smile, "You guys have made me old. You've become a grown-up girl now, and you've become a healthy adult. I can't help but admit my age! How about we have lunch here at noon? There's still a show this afternoon!"
"Okay!" Fang Xin agreed generously, and then went to play table tennis with Jiankangkang.
In the evening, Fang Xin did not come to Zhou's house again. She dragged her aunt back to their room to talk.
After entering his nephew's room, Zhou Xiang shook off their hands and said, "Just tell me what you want to say! You even sent your uncle away and acted so mysteriously."
Kang Kang looked at his brother, waiting for him to speak. Jian Jian coughed lightly and said, "Aunt, we plan to stay in Shanghai to develop our business. After we return to school tomorrow, we will not be back during the winter vacation. In other words, we will not be back during the holidays for more than two years.
Also, Fang Xin seems to be interested in us, but she can't tell who is who. We don't have that kind of interest in her. From now on, our partner must be someone who can tell who we are at a glance. Wei Bin seems to like her.
Of course, these are just our feelings and guesses, so please, Auntie, cover for us and don't let our thoughts and plans slip through. If we don't come back, we can avoid emotional problems and also develop our careers."
Looking at the two handsome young men in front of him, Zhou Xiang smiled and agreed, "That's a good idea. It's too early for you to talk about love now. Do you need your aunt's support?"
Jianjian shook his head. "No, we've saved a lot of our New Year's money over the years, and Dad has given us a lot for tuition and living expenses, so it's enough. We're starting from a low point."
Zhou Xiang was very pleased that Fang Xinruo was so steady at the age of 19. "In fact, you two are already very easy to distinguish. If I can't tell you apart, it means I either have face blindness or I'm trying to please everyone. Fang Xinruo definitely doesn't have face blindness. It's best to have less contact with her in the future. My nephew is not someone to be picked on by others."
Unexpectedly, this seemingly cheerful and generous girl actually has a lot of ulterior motives. Is she trying to pick out the one who has the deepest feelings for her? Or does she want to see her brothers turn against each other for her?
With my aunt's agreement, Jiankangkang felt relieved. "What about my mother?"
"Don't worry about it," Zhou Xiang shook his head. "Your father will take care of it. By the way, I plan to discuss the separation of the family this New Year. We kept them together before because we wanted to support your uncle and your younger uncle. Now that your uncle and your younger uncle have their own families, separating them will reduce conflicts."
Jian Jiankang and Kang Jiankang looked at each other and said, "Aunt, do we really have to go this far?"
"Hmm!" Zhou Xiang sighed, "You were born early and enjoyed the most love. At that time, our family was simple. However, I cannot accept the way your grandmother treated your aunt.
Going around in circles, it's not just your aunt who's being treated unfairly, but also your uncle and sister Hanhan. This father and daughter are always the flesh and blood of this family, right? Forget it, I won't say anymore. When you get married and your wife gets along with your mother, you'll understand.
However, even though we've separated, our feelings and interactions remain. I'm just saying hello to you. After all, you won't be back for a few years. If you have any questions or need help, just call me."
"good."
"good."
Jiankangkang responded loudly.
At night, after coaxing Sanbao and Yuanyuan to sleep, Zhou Xiang called his eldest brother and Yan'er into the study, and the four of them entered the space together.
Xianxian saw Zhou Xiang and asked why there were suddenly so many dogs. Zhou Xiang glared at her and said, "Didn't I say I gave away 12 of Dahuang's offspring? This one has been out there for 11 years and retired."
Xianxian was a little confused. Did Zhou Xiang eat dynamite? So explosive?
Zhou Yan held his parents' hands and said, "Let's go to Xian Pavilion! I miss Mom, and Dad misses you too."
Xianxian blushed and was pulled away from Zhou Xiang by her son.
Only when he arrived at Xian Pavilion did Zhou Yan tell his mother what had happened in the Zhou family.
Xianxian was silent for a long time before she said quietly, "Yan'er, you promised your mother that no matter what happens, your heart will not change at all, especially after you accept the Kong family, you must keep your original intention.
Your aunt's experience on this trip was not as simple as she described. Even if it was just imprisonment, nearly four years was torture."
