Zhou's mother smiled and nodded at her little girl. She knew her father loved to show off, so why was he talking about taking a nap at this time?
Zhou Xiang picked up the gold bracelet and helped his mother put it on her left wrist. Mother Zhou raised her left hand and looked at the gold bracelet with tears in her eyes. "Thank you, my daughter. I am finally able to wear jewelry again in my life."
Zhou Xiang looked at the full-grown ear hole on her mother's earlobe. That was when Jiang Xing'an spoiled her like a little princess when she was a few years old and gave her all the jewelry to wear.
Later, when she came to Hui Province from Congjiang Province, her jewelry was confiscated by Old Lady Liu and sold during difficult times.
Zhou thought, "No need to thank me, just wear it! Don't be reluctant to part with it."
"Okay." Zhou's mother's voice was choked.
Zhou Xiang handed the other two boxes, one large and one small, to Ling Ran. "Go back and give them to Uncle Ling and Aunt Ling. Otherwise, the whole town will know that I bought gold jewelry for my parents."
Ling Ran asked her to come along, "We'll go together, this is also your thoughtful gesture."
Mother Zhou agreed, "Yes, let's go together. Your Aunt Ling will definitely know that it was you who bought it, and it will show more sincerity if you go."
Zhou Xiang had no choice but to leave the house with Ling Ran. "After visiting your house, let's go to the county town. We haven't got the bed back from the Feng family yet!"
"Okay, I've been busy since I got back. Time to go check if the bed is still there."
Dong Yunrong smiled when she saw the gold bracelet and said to Zhou Xiang, "You must have bought it, right?"
Zhou Xiang nodded, "Aunt Ling's guess is really accurate."
Dong Yunrong snorted softly, "How could I not know my son? He's not that careful. If he does anything wrong in the future, you should tell him what you should say and tell him to do what you should tell him to do.
Men! They need to be disciplined by women. Don’t spoil them. If you spoil them, they will take it for granted and won’t know how to care for others. Then, you will be the one who suffers.
Zhou Xiang looked at Ling Ran with a smile. Ling Ran looked aggrieved, "Mom, am I your biological son?"
Dong Yunrong nodded at him and said, "If you weren't my biological child, I would have returned you to your mother long ago. You're too difficult to serve."
Zhou wanted to laugh. Ling Ran would sometimes be humiliated in front of his mother!
Ling Quan's ring was naturally given to Dong Yunrong.
The two left the Ling family and drove to the county town, heading straight to the East Lane in the north of the city.
The neighbors in East Lane in the north of the city were a little curious when they saw a Beijing-licensed car driving into the Second Lane.
The Feng family’s most powerful relative is in Shanghai, so who is in this Beijing-licensed car?
Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran got out of the car. The neighbors were surprised. Was Zhou Xiang here to visit the Feng family?
When Jiao Yuying saw Zhou Xiang coming, she was a little worried that she regretted selling the house. She didn't know how to deal with her husband now that he was away.
Zhou Xiang smiled and said, "Aunt Jiao, I came to pick up something. I hope you didn't throw it away."
Jiao Yuying breathed a sigh of relief. "I just threw away some garbage. What do you want to take?"
"The bed in the outer room of the east room."
Jiao Yuying nodded repeatedly, "It's still there. Although it's a bit of a hindrance, I saw that this bed is old-fashioned and I couldn't bear to throw it away."
"Then I'll take it away right away."
As she spoke, she walked into the yard, and Ling Ran followed her into the yard.
Gao Zhaolan's eyes nearly popped out. Zhou Xiang was driving a car this year? And it had a Beijing license plate. Didn't that mean she was doing well in Beijing? If she had known this earlier, she would have agreed to let her eldest son date Zhou Xiang.
If she agrees, her eldest son will not leave home, and her family will have a car, which will be so prestigious!
Zhou Xiang: If you are sick, you should treat it as early as possible.
Ling Ran moved the dismantled bed from the Feng family out bit by bit. After moving it out, Zhou Xiang felt a little embarrassed and said, "Ling Ran, go call a cart."
One of the neighbors who was watching came out and said, "Zhou Xiang, I have a cart at home. Where are you going? I'll pull it for you."
Zhou Xiang nodded. "Okay! I'll use your cart to pull it to the Water Conservancy Bureau's yard. I'll pay you twice the street wages."
The man waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, I don't want any wages. It's okay anyway, I'll help you pull it."
"You don't want to be paid? Then I'll just go out on the street and hail a taxi!"
When the man heard this, he knew Zhou Xiang wasn't being polite. "Okay! I'll take the money. Just follow the street price."
Zhou Xiang smiled and said, "That's right, how can I let you work for nothing?"
The man hurried back to pull the cart. After all the bed parts were loaded onto the cart, the man pulled the cart and left first.
After Zhou Xiang thanked Jiao Yuying, he and Ling Ran got into the car. The car drove away from Chengbei East Lane. Gao Zhaolan was still regretting it.
Jiao Yuying rolled her eyes at her, returned to her yard, and closed the gate. "Humph! What a wild idea! He scolded Zhou Xiang in her yard every day."
She doesn't even look at the character of her eldest son or her family's financial situation. Not only does her eldest son dare to have feelings for Zhou Xiang, she also dares to say that it was Zhou Xiang who seduced her son.
That young man was clearly Zhou Xiang's target. Could it be that Zhou Xiang would give up such an excellent man for her unsuccessful eldest son? The look on his face just now showed that he must have been attracted by the car.
Jiao Yuying had indeed guessed correctly. Gao Zhaolan wrote a letter to her eldest son as soon as she returned home. Half a month ago, her eldest son had sent money back and left an address, but it was an address for someone else to forward the letter to.
Even this could not stop Gao Zhaolan's passionate heart. She wanted to tell her eldest son about the Beijing-licensed car she saw today, and she wanted to tell her eldest son that she agreed to Zhou Xiang marrying into the Shi family.
After receiving the letter and reading its contents, Shi Minglei tore it up and burned it. His mother must have been desperate for money. The person following Zhou Xiang must be his girlfriend. Besides, since Zhou Xiang could afford a car in Beijing, why would he be interested in someone like him, with low education and no achievements?
After receiving the second letter from his mother, Shi Minglei decisively quit his job and wrote a letter to his father: If my mother harasses me again, I will cut off contact with my family forever.
Shi Bolin questioned Gao Zhaolan with the letter containing only one sentence, and Gao Zhaolan told her husband her thoughts.
Shi Bolin slapped her in the face and said, "If you don't want to live like this anymore, go back to your parents' home. I told you not to provoke Zhou Xiang before, and not to talk nonsense. Now that Zhou Xiang has done so well in the capital, you still dare to provoke her, you still dare to talk nonsense, you still dare to have wild ideas, do you have any brains?
"The man following is obviously Zhou Xiang's boyfriend. I've heard that he looks extraordinary. Are you blind? Can you only see cars?"
Gao Zhaolan covered her face and dared only to shed tears silently, not daring to cry like she used to. Her husband could only bring home a hundred yuan a month and might even be laid off. He was in a bad temper every day, and she was really afraid of being sent back to her parents' home.
Ling Ran drove his car slowly, following behind the cart. The neighbors on the cart had no choice but to speed up because he was following them like this.
When they arrived at the Water Conservancy Bureau, the neighbor was sweating profusely. Zhou Xiang felt a little embarrassed and said, "Uncle, I still need your help to move it upstairs."
The neighbor nodded in agreement.
