Seeing that his eldest son remained silent, Old Master Zhou couldn't help but angrily say, "I really don't know what you're doing with your brain! You actually went to find that old bastard Duan Yannian!"
Grandpa Zhou looked at his eldest son with exasperation, so angry he almost smashed the teapot in his hand. "Everyone knows that Duan and Qin Zhenyuan are practically inseparable, and you still went to see him! You're just offering yourself up for him to humiliate!"
In front of so many younger people, Zhou Jinzhou was scolded by his father, looking embarrassed, but he still tried to make amends: "I just wanted to test the relationship between the Duan family and Qin Zhenyuan."
Although Qin Zhenyuan has returned, he has been away from the capital for so many years and is no longer the same person he used to be.
Who knew that the guy surnamed Duan was such a stubborn fool, actually going so far as to fawn over Qin Zhenyuan!
Old Master Zhou's face was gloomy. Recalling how he himself had once gone to great lengths to curry favor with Qin Zhenyuan, he said resentfully, "Shut up! Everyone go back to what you were doing! As for Qingwan, let her stay in the hospital obediently for now. Since the Qin family isn't going to listen, then let everyone see their true colors!"
Zhou Jinzhou quickly replied, "Yes."
When Old Master Zhou thought of Zhou Qingwan's face being swollen like a pig's head and several teeth being knocked out, his expression turned even more unpleasant. "Have someone go to the Qin family's old house and tell them that Qingwan misses her aunt."
Zhou Jinzhou understood and immediately said, "I'll have Mingzhu call and tell her about this right away."
Grandpa Zhou glanced at the wall clock and said, "It's too late today. Have your wife go there in person tomorrow to talk to you."
Zhou Jinzhou immediately agreed.
Although Zhou Jinzhou, the eldest son, acts rashly and without thinking, often angering his grandfather, he is obedient enough.
Seeing how obedient he was to him, Old Master Zhou's anger gradually dissipated.
In any case, a family only needs one person in charge. He is in good health and can live for another twenty or thirty years. As long as he is there, the Zhou family does not need a second voice.
Ye Weiwei had no idea that simply dealing with a rabid dog that was biting people would cause such a huge stir in Kyoto. She continued to live a simple life of taking care of her child and preparing for the New Year, completely unaffected.
Whether it's a raging storm, a turbulent undercurrent, or a towering wave outside, it seems to have nothing to do with her; she remains at ease and composed.
The next day, Guan Mingzhu went to the Qin family's old house to find Guan Mingyue. After delivering the message, she also talked about other things, subtly inquiring about the Qin family's reaction to Huo Xiao, the Qin family's young master whom they had taken in halfway through their lives, as well as their reaction to Huo Xiao's wife, Ye Weiwei.
When Guan Mingzhu mentioned Ye Weiwei, Guan Mingyue was reminded of her disappointing experience at the military compound that day, and she was filled with anger.
"Big sister, you have no idea how barbaric Ye Weiwei is, she has absolutely no manners! I heard she comes from a scholarly family, and her father is the vice president of Peking University. I really don't understand how such a family could raise such an unpresentable daughter! Like pot, like lid, neither of those two is any good!"
If the two of them stayed in the countryside, it would be fine. After all, it's a remote and impoverished place, and any incidents wouldn't reach the capital. But if they returned to the capital... I can't even imagine how the Qin family would be ridiculed! Just thinking about it makes me feel ashamed!
"From now on, the Qin family's children will be implicated by them; how will they ever be able to face anyone in the capital again?"
Guan Mingzhu frowned: "When will Huo Xiao acknowledge his ancestors and return to his clan?"
Guan Mingzhu frowned again upon hearing this.
Recently, there have been many disagreements between other members of the Qin family and Qin Zhenyuan regarding this matter.
The awkward thing was that Qin Zhenyuan only said that he had found his son who had been lost for many years, but he didn't mention anything about recognizing his ancestors and returning to his family, leaving the Qin family members unsure of his intentions.
At first, they thought Qin Zhenyuan didn't care much about this son. After all, more than 20 years had passed, and the son who had been living away from home had grown up. Perhaps the father and son didn't have any feelings for each other and were far from the point of recognizing each other as family members.
But since so many things happened after Huo Xiao's family came to Beijing, they all realized that they had been wrong before.
Qin Zhenyuan wasn't indifferent to Huo Xiao; on the contrary, he practically doted on him!
Putting everything else aside, just take Qin Zhenyuan's car. Whenever the Qin family wanted to use it, Qin Zhenyuan would give them a cold look and scold them for not knowing the rules. But when Huo Xiao's family came, the car practically became theirs. They would pick them up and drop them off when they went back to their parents' house, and even when they went shopping at a department store, they would be driven there...
No one in the Qin family had ever received such treatment before.
Oh, there's one more person to exclude, and that's Huo Xiao's biological mother, Liu Qingxue!
Qin Zhenyuan truly cherishes these two women, mother and son, as if they were his own precious treasures!
Thinking back to those days, both families clearly intended to form a marriage alliance, but in the end, Qin Zhenyuan rejected the Guan family with a verbal marriage agreement that no one cared about, and then married Liu Qingxue. Guan Mingyue felt very uncomfortable!
Guan Mingzhu didn't know what Guan Mingyue was thinking. Seeing that Guan Mingyue didn't speak, she couldn't help but ask again, "Are you really willing to let that person who was adopted halfway through inherit everything in the Qin family?"
Guan Mingyue's face darkened: "He's dreaming! Whether he can be recognized as a member of the Qin family and even enter their gates is still uncertain!"
Guan Mingzhu was secretly pleased to hear this, but she still couldn't resist adding fuel to the fire, "Qin Zhenyuan hasn't revealed anything for so long. I guess he probably wants to take action during the New Year period. If you really don't want to... you still have to think of a way. Otherwise, given Qin Zhenyuan's domineering and autocratic style, once Huo Xiao acknowledges his ancestors, everything will be set in stone, and it will be too late to say anything then."
Guan Mingyue shared the same thought and nodded, saying, "I understand."
Seeing that Guan Mingyue had taken her words to heart, Guan Mingzhu changed the subject at the right time, "Qingwan has really suffered a lot this time. How could those two be so cruel to treat her like this? Putting everything else aside, we are all relatives. They bullied Qingwan like this, they don't care about us relatives at all."
Guan Mingyue thought that Zhou Qingwan's suffering this time was mostly because of her, and she couldn't help but feel even more resentful towards Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao.
These two beat Zhou Qingwan so badly that she ended up in the hospital; they were clearly slapping Guan Mingyue in the face!
When Guan Mingyue and Guan Mingzhu went to the hospital to visit Zhou Qingwan, Guan Mingyue was furious when she saw the redness and bruises on Zhou Qingwan's face that had not yet subsided, and when Zhou Qingwan complained about her to her face.
She absolutely has to get this back!
