640: Living in a villa since childhood
Zhuang Huaijian never imagined that his son would find a girlfriend who was twelve years younger than him!
This time, she really believed that her son was deceiving ignorant girls.
Zhou Ziying, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, didn't expect that Yu Xiaoye was only nineteen years old. He originally thought that he just looked young, but it turned out that he was not only young, but really young!
The mother and daughter looked at each other.
Zhuang Huaijian looked at Yu Xiaoye, who looked innocent, and asked worriedly:
"Xiao Ye, I just heard Hengzi say that he has met your parents and that your parents approve of him. Is that true?"
"Yes, it's true."
"Are your parents okay with him being so much older than you?"
"Accept it—my parents like him very much."
Zhuang Huaijian didn't know whether she should believe what the two young men said. She was really worried that the two of them had colluded with each other to deceive her.
Zhuang Huaijian hesitated for a moment and asked again:
"Then, did Hengzi ever tell you that he was injured on the battlefield before?"
“——”
Yu Xiaoye started to panic and was instantly in a panic - it was ruined, why did Mrs. Zhou suddenly ask her this question?
Oh my god, she is not prepared at all!
How should she answer?
Should you answer that you know or you don’t know?
If the answer is "I know", then Mother Zhou will definitely ask further questions, and then follow-up questions will arise.
If the answer is "I don't know" - there will be many questions later.
So no matter what you answer, it’s wrong!
At this time, Zhou Ziying turned back and winked at his mother:
"Mom, why are you asking her that question?"
What that means is, if you want to ask, you should ask Hengzi, why ask a girl?
However, Zhuang Huaijian felt that this matter must be made clear. This was no joke. It concerned the girl's future life, and he couldn't just bring her home in such a muddled way.
So Zhuang Huaijian continued to ask:
"Xiao Ye, please speak the truth boldly. Do you know that he is injured?"
"Uh..." Yu Xiaoye's mind started spinning rapidly, and he began to practice Tai Chi. "Oh, I know. He said he had a lot of injuries on his body. His legs were injured, his face had some injuries, and his arms and hands were also injured..."
"That--"
What Zhuang Huaijian wanted to ask most was questions about his son, but it was not easy to say this to a girl.
Moreover, there is a driver in the car, so you can't be too blunt.
Therefore, Yu Xiaoye simply pretended to be confused and continued to play dumb with Zhou's mother:
"Aunt, the farm manager is truly remarkable. He's been wounded many times on the battlefield. I heard he was once hit by a shell and spent a long time in a field hospital. We all admire him after hearing his story. Everyone on our farm considers him a war hero."
"Really?" Zhuang Huaijian's face lit up with pride when he mentioned his son's military exploits, and the topic was smoothly changed. "How is his work in the Great Northern Wilderness?"
"Very good, he is the youngest and most capable field director in the entire corps!" Yu Xiaoye said this with the admiration of a little fangirl.
Zhuang Huaijian saw that the girl's words and expressions were full of admiration for Zhou Ziheng, and believed that the girl really liked Zhou Ziheng, so he laughed and said modestly:
"Don't praise him deliberately."
"Aunt, I'm not praising him intentionally. I'm telling the truth. You really raised a very outstanding son."
"Ha ha--"
Zhuang Huaijian, who was always reserved and dignified, laughed out loud. While laughing, he exchanged glances with his daughter in front of him, as if to say:
This girl has such a sweet mouth!
No wonder my son likes her. She is beautiful, sweet-spoken, well-behaved and obedient. Which man can refuse her?
Not only was his son satisfied, Zhuang Huaijian was also satisfied——
After Yu Xiaoye cleverly changed the subject, Zhuang Huaijian completely forgot to ask about his son's injury.
On the way, Zhuang Huaijian asked some more questions about Yu Xiaoye's family situation and how they met, and Yu Xiaoye told him everything.
During the conversation with Yu Xiaoye, Zhuang Huaijian discovered that this girl had a simple and sincere character, which was very rare. She must have been well protected by her parents, received enough love, and had not experienced the infighting and deception between brothers and sisters to develop such a temperament.
Zhuang Huaijian couldn't believe that such a smart, clever, straightforward and sincere girl could be raised in the countryside.
Not to mention the countryside, there is none even in the city.
So Zhuang Huaijian was very curious about what Yu Xiaoye's parents were like.
How can we raise a girl with a personality like Yu Xiaoye?
In short, Zhuang Huaijian had all kinds of worries before, but after meeting Yu Xiaoye, all the doubts in his heart were thrown behind him.
This girl is more than enough for their son who is already in his early thirties!
Their family has found a treasure.
Zhou Ziying found that his mother was very satisfied with Yu Xiaoye's attitude, and he was very happy. His brother's vision was indeed good.
We had a great chat along the way and before we knew it we had arrived at the military compound.
The guard at the gate of the compound saw the jeep approaching from a distance and opened the gate in advance to let the car in.
So, Yu Xiaoye finally entered the yard that looked very mysterious.
The yard is very big. After entering, we walked around a few times and stopped in front of a two-story building.
This should be Zhou Ziheng’s home.
Before Yu Xiaoye got out of the car, he was stunned by the beautiful building.
Yu Xiaoye always thought that people in the 1970s lived in difficult conditions. People in the countryside lived in mud houses with mud walls and thatched roofs, while people in the city were crowded into small houses the size of a palm.
However, Zhou Ziheng's family conditions exceeded her original understanding.
It turns out that Zhou Ziheng has lived in a villa since he was a child!
And it’s a villa in a heavily guarded compound!
She really didn't know—
"Xiao Ye, get off the car, we're home."
Zhuang Huaijian took Yu Xiaoye's hand and asked her to come down.
Yu Xiaoye
After getting off the car, I looked up again at this old red brick building and saw a clump of green ivy on the outer wall extending all the way to the roof, with only a glass window exposed. It looked very artistic.
There is a gravel path in front of the building.
There are two flower beds beside the path, with several crabapple trees and holly trees planted in them.
The crabapple blossoms are in full bloom, with bright red and green colors shading each other, creating a rich and beautiful feeling.
Around the small building, there are single-family villas of similar shapes, all of which are inhabited.
The entire compound has a quiet environment and the conditions are extremely good.
After seeing with his own eyes the living environment Zhou Ziheng had grown up in, and thinking about how he could voluntarily give up such a good living condition and run to the remote and desolate Great Northern Wilderness, Yu Xiaoye truly admired Zhou Ziheng's determination.
The three of them got out of the car and just walked to the door of the small building.
A middle-aged woman wearing an apron came out to greet them. Yu Xiaoye guessed that she should be the Zhou family's nanny.
It turns out that the Zhou family also has a nanny——
As soon as the nanny Aunt Zhang came out, she stared up and down at the country girl from the Great Northern Wilderness. She originally thought that this girl who cheated for food, drink and love was a rustic, dark-complexioned rural girl, but when she saw the real person, she found that she was a pretty, fair-skinned and pretty girl. She seemed a little confused for a moment.
Zhuang Huaijian took Yu Xiaoye's hand and introduced it to the nanny:
"Aunt Zhang, this is Xiaoye."
Aunt Zhang nodded to Yu Xiaoye and gave him a perfunctory smile:
"Are you here?"
