The child’s mother?
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu noticed the admiring look the young woman gave Zhou Yan, and a sudden sense of emptiness filled his heart. Mr. Zhou had always been too unattainable, so the daughters of prominent families in the imperial capital didn't dare approach him. Even families with such ambitions didn't dare risk their families.
After all, those century-old families abroad who wanted to curry favor with Mr. Zhou were all directly exterminated.
Even though Zhou Yan now looks like he doesn't want anyone to approach him, his face alone can still attract a group of fearless admirers.
In this era, if you stand on the street and shout "hooligan", the first person the police will arrest is the gay man.
Xiao Yu: I suddenly don’t want Mr. Zhou to go out to work!
☆
Mr. Zhou looked at Director Yu with a half-smile: "The child's mother has an important job. My grandson and my godfather can also take good care of their own children."
The young girl's eyes lit up: "Does this mean that the mistress of this house is often away? Or, are they divorced?"
Director Yu's expression froze, as she felt the old man before her seemed to be implying that she was meddling in other people's affairs. Wasn't this too disrespectful? The county magistrate was no better than the current one. After all, she was the supervisor of this street. If she wanted, she could make this house public.
Xiao Liu saw the anger in Director Yu's eyes, and his lips twitched silently. He said, "Director Yu, this is my chief's old house. He's usually busy, so he has to live in the XXX compound arranged by the government. It's just inconvenient to get in and out over there, so Xiao Zhou and Xiao Xiao are allowed to live here. You can't bring some random people here just because we're young."
XXX compound? Director Yu shuddered. She knew that compound. It was said that there were powerful people in it, some of whom were important leaders.
If a person like this coughs, a small person like her will be doomed.
Her niece had really good taste, but it was too good. A family like this was out of their reach. If things went wrong, the whole family might end up in trouble.
☆
"Auntie." Yu Qingqing was forcibly pulled out of the courtyard by Director Yu, but the girl was obviously a little reluctant. "Why are you leaving just like that? Shouldn't we stay and help?"
Director Yu knew exactly what she was thinking. He pinched the girl's arm and said, "You'd better give up on that idea right now. They've already ordered us to leave, so let's not rush in and embarrass ourselves."
Director Yu felt that her eldest niece was not a blessing for her. It was Chinese New Year, and she had finally met a noble man, but she had ruined the relationship before she even started to climb higher. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't have mentioned something that was taboo and been warned.
"What do you mean by rushing? This is our job."
"Okay, that's not out of your reach. Didn't you see the look in Gang Nan's eyes? If you dare to go close to him, I guarantee that your aunt, your father, and your mother's jobs will be over."
"How is that possible? I think his wife must be dead, otherwise how could he let two grown men take care of a child? Wouldn't it be a good idea for me to help them take care of the child if I married him?"
☆
"Hey, look how beautiful you are. Damn girl, in a family like that, someone like you would only be qualified to be a concubine of the lowest rank, or a maid. Even if you use trickery to get in, I guarantee you won't live to see the next New Year."
Yu Qingqing frowned. "This is a new era. If they dare to treat me badly, I will report them to the Public Security Bureau."
"Report? Believe it or not, as soon as you report it, everything our ancestors did will be reported in the newspapers. Then your whole family will accompany you to a labor camp? If you are even more ruthless, you will be labeled an enemy spy and you will have to eat peanuts instead." Director Yu threatened his niece.
Yu Qingqing was "listening with intent". How powerful must a family be to be able to let people eat peanuts so casually?
She has always wanted to marry into a powerful and good family, but unfortunately she had no chance before. This time, God has sent someone to her, and if she doesn't seize the opportunity, she will be letting God down.
As for what her aunt said to her, she felt that it was all done on purpose to scare her. Her uncle was too timid. This was a new world, not the feudal society of the past. And the man must have had a dead wife, otherwise his wife would have divorced him.
She is completely free to pursue such a single man.
"Aunt, please don't scare me. This is a new society, and the country advocates equality for all. As long as I can prove that his wife is dead or divorced, I have the right to pursue happiness. Besides, our country now advocates having many children, more blessings, and there is strength in numbers. How can it be justified for him not to have more children at such a young age?"
“…”

"Xiao Yu, don't take what just happened to heart." Seeing that Xiao Yu was unhappy, Grandpa Zhou hurriedly comforted him, "Although the matter between you and Zhou Yan cannot be made public, I have already informed the higher-ups. They all understand." He did tell the higher-ups that Xiao Yu had given birth to a child for Zhou Yan.
Xiao Yu glanced at Old Man Zhou and couldn't help but whisper, "I'm afraid that girl won't give up. She's saying outside that this is a new society and people have the right to pursue happiness. We must also keep up with the times and let the Zhou family have many children and good fortune."
Mr. Zhou: ...(⊙_⊙)?
Mr. Zhou suddenly heard a voice in his head, and his nerves instinctively tensed up, but he soon knew who was talking to him.
He said how could these two guys have such a good relationship when they couldn’t even communicate with each other.
It seems that he is short-sighted!
It seems that even if his grandson does not follow his path in the future, he will definitely have a place in this city.
"Our Zhou family is lucky to have these two plump great-granddaughters," Old Man Zhou smiled. He didn't need to worry about having many children and bringing blessings. His plump great-grandson was still hidden, and he didn't know if he would ever see him in his lifetime. Being forced to acknowledge his grandson had already made him a target of public criticism. Wouldn't it be like sending his grandson to hell if he got a daughter-in-law of the opposite sex?
