When Zhou's parents heard Meng Zhigang's words, they were also hesitant.
Logically speaking, since they are already married, he is now considered a son-in-law who has moved into the wife's family home.
As long as they don't give in, the child in the girl's belly will have to take the surname Zhou.
But people should be reasonable too.
In this society, it is ultimately men who marry women.
Furthermore, well, how should I put it?
The key point is that they're already married, and they've said they can go through the normal process again.
It depends on what the son-in-law does.
Also, it's not that they're driven by self-interest.
The child's grandparents and uncle are all capable people; they will support the child's future path.
How easy that would be!
They're no good; they can't be of much help.
With a thousand entanglements and ten thousand reluctances, I still have to tentatively bring it up.
“Mingzhao, why don’t you go back with your older brother tomorrow, just to familiarize yourself with the place?”
Let's not think about anything else for now.
"As for Xiaohui, why don't you just leave her at home and let her rest?"
Sigh, being a parent is tough!
According to their own selfish reasons, they didn't want them to go at all.
Let's leave our daughter at home for now.
Mingzhao's parents are both high-ranking officials; what if they don't approve of their daughter?
Let Mingzhao go and check on the situation first.
To prevent my daughter from being wronged.
Xu Mingzhao is such a shrewd person.
After the two elders explained it to him, he understood what was going on.
He said directly, "I am the son-in-law of the Zhou family, and our children will have the surname Zhou."
This cannot be changed.
Mom and Dad, don't worry, I'm just going to take a look.
If they accept our family, I will acknowledge them; if they don't, I won't.
Our family has been together for so many years, and we've been doing just fine without them.
Xu Mingzhao's words deeply moved the elderly couple.
What a good child! What a good child!
Zhou Aiguo was overjoyed!
He's afraid that once his brother has a biological father, he won't acknowledge his father-in-law anymore!
After all, getting promoted, making money, and losing one's wife are all great joyous occasions.
His brother-in-law's biological parents have been found, and they're high-ranking officials. It's possible that they might not approve of his sister anymore.
Of all the people at the table, only Meng Zhigang's face was black.
"Mingzhao, what are you thinking? Our parents couldn't possibly be like that."
Oh, if you're worried, just have your parents come over.
Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou, you're really overthinking it.
Do you think you don't know what my parents are like?
Mr. and Mrs. Zhou were also a little embarrassed.
Oh dear, you were too clear just now.
Please touch it up quickly.
Gently clear your throat.
"Gangzi, you're overthinking it. We're just worried that Xiaohui is pregnant and this long journey might cause her any more problems."
"Just let Mingzhao go back with you first. Your parents are so busy, they don't have time to come!"
Meng Zhigang was speechless: "Uncle, my parents are retired, they have plenty of time!"
It's not that it's impossible for them to come!
Anyway, there's nothing else to do.
The road isn't far either.
Mr. Zhou: Oh dear, I forgot about this one.
"Then Mingzhao should go find them. What kind of parents come to see their son? That's going against the natural order!"
The decision was final.
In the end, it was decided that Xu Mingzhao would go to Beijing alone.
That night, Zhou Aihui lay on the kang (a heated brick bed), tears streaming down her face.
Xu Mingzhao poured out the foot-washing water and went inside.
He saw his wife lying face inwards.
"Xiaohui, would you like some water?"
His wife is pregnant, her body temperature is a little higher than normal, and she is prone to feeling hot, so she can't eat popsicles or ice cream.
To cool off in the summer, you can only eat melons, fruits, pears, and peaches, or drink water.
It's time to rest now; eating fruit isn't good either.
As a result, nothing happened for half a day.
Xu Mingzhao sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), and had already taken off half of his clothes, but still did not hear a reply.
This is not normal!
Turning my head, I saw that his wife's shoulders were twitching.
She's clearly crying!
Xu Mingzhao's heart immediately felt as if it had been gripped by something.
It's sour and unpleasant.
I thought about what happened during the day.
Xu Mingzhao felt somewhat guilty.
He thought that once he made his stance clear, Xiaohui would be at ease.
As it turns out, his little girl is still just as sentimental.
Xu Mingzhao hugged his wife from behind.
He rested his chin on Zhou Aihui's head.
He spoke slowly and in a deep voice: "Silly girl, what are you thinking about?"
I'm just going to check on things, it's not like I'm never coming back. Wherever you are, I'll be there. If you're worried, I won't go.
"They've already been absent from my life for over twenty years, so the remaining decades don't matter."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Aihui turned around.
Originally, his eyes were clearly black and white.
Everything is red right now.
"You're just spouting nonsense. Those are your own parents. If I stop you from going to see them, what kind of person would I be!"
"Waaah..."
As she spoke, she started crying again.
Xu Mingzhao quickly wiped away her tears: "Honey, honey, let's not cry. I'm just going to see you. We've been together for so many years, don't you trust me?"
I'll only be gone for a few days, I'll be back soon!
Zhou Aihui didn't say anything, she just kept crying!
Oh dear, why is her life so miserable!
They're already married and pregnant, and suddenly their husband's whole family appears!
Waaah, will she have to learn some rules from now on? Will she be bullied? Will she have to compete with her sister-in-law for her mother-in-law's affection?
Waaah, so tragic!
If only Xu Mingzhao knew what his wife was thinking at that moment.
