641: Treat this place as your home
Zhuang Huaijian then introduced to Yu Xiaoye:
"Xiao Ye, this is our Aunt Zhang, an elderly woman who has lived with us for more than ten years."
Yu Xiaoye followed up with a cry:
"Aunt Zhang."
Aunt Zhang nodded slightly and said nothing more, but just glanced at Yu Xiaoye's clothes and appearance.
Zhou Ziying got out of the car carrying Yu Xiaoye's luggage bag, saw the driver off, and turned around to take Yu Xiaoye into the gate.
As soon as he entered the house, Yu Xiaoye was shocked by the decoration of the small building.
The marble floor is clean and tidy, the wooden furniture in the living room has a simple and elegant luster, the mahogany staircase leads to the upper floor, and the wooden skirting of the same color adds a heavy texture.
There is a crystal chandelier hanging right above the living room.
The curtains are also made of high-end velvet fabric.
It is hard to imagine that such exquisite decoration could be seen in the 1970s. It could be called luxurious.
It seems that no matter how turbulent the situation is outside, the compound is completely unaffected and remains calm.
If you think about it, you can understand that no matter how much trouble the people outside make, they dare not cause trouble to those who hold guns, so there can be peace in the compound.
In addition to the exquisite decoration, the house was equipped with a refrigerator, television, and radio. This was the first time that Yu Xiaoye saw a refrigerator and a television in a house in the 1970s.
Yu Xiaoye really felt like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, curious about everything she saw.
"Xiao Ye, I'll take you to the room upstairs first." Zhou Ziying said to Yu Xiaoye.
Yu Xiaoye responded and followed Zhou Ziying upstairs.
We went up to the second floor and entered a room that was obviously a man's room. The furnishings in the room all revealed the preferences of a straight man. Models of various vehicles, tanks, airplanes, and guns could be seen everywhere. Various awards and medals were posted on the walls, as well as photos of Zhou Ziheng when he was young.
In the photo, Zhou Ziheng is wearing a military uniform and standing in front of a fighter jet. He looks high-spirited and seems to be less than 20 years old. He has a little baby fat on his face and a kind of childishness. He looks even younger than the photo on Zhou Ziheng's work ID card.
When Yu Xiaoye saw Zhou Ziheng's photo, the sense of strangeness in his heart disappeared instantly.
"Xiao Ye, this is Hengzi's room. You can live here temporarily for the next few days and treat it as your home."
"Yeah, okay."
Yu Xiaoye walked to the window and looked out, and found that the window surrounded by green ivy that he had just seen downstairs was the window of Zhou Ziheng's room.
Yu Xiaoye opened the window and looked outside. He could reach out and pick the ivy leaves.
She really loves this room!
Zhou Ziying took Yu Xiaoye to the bathroom on the second floor, where there were washbasins, foot basins, toothbrushes, toothpaste, face towels, shampoo, vanishing cream, and toilet paper prepared for Yu Xiaoye.
Yu Xiaoye said sincerely:
"Thank you, Sister Zhou."
Zhou Ziying smiled:
"Don't be so polite, just call me sister when you get home."
Yu Xiaoye called out shyly:
"sister."
"That's right!"
After looking at the rooms upstairs, the two went downstairs.
Zhuang Huaijian asked Aunt Zhang to cut apples and pears and bring them over, and Yu Xiaoye sat obediently on the sofa in the living room to eat the fruit.
She still felt a little restrained, not daring to speak or move around casually. She was very careful in her words and actions, pretending to be more obedient than ever.
If only the director were here, we wouldn’t have to be so nervous.
Now that the manager is not here, leaving her home alone makes her feel a little nervous.
Fortunately, her future mother-in-law is a very nice person. She looks like a well-educated intellectual. I hope her future father-in-law can get along as well as her mother-in-law.
Yu Xiaoye was eating fruit alone in the living room.
In the kitchen, Zhuang Huaijian and Aunt Zhang prepared lunch.
Zhuang Huaijian praised Aunt Zhang highly:
"The girl Hengzi brought home is really nice, very well behaved."
Aunt Zhang said sourly:
"Of course. Being able to marry into the Zhou family is a blessing she has earned in eight lifetimes. Of course, she has to learn her lesson."
Zhuang Huaijian felt that Aunt Zhang's words were unpleasant to hear, but he didn't take it seriously.
What worries Zhuang Huaijian the most now is how Zhou Jingru will react when he comes back and sees this girl.
Will he get furious?
Thinking of this, Zhuang Huaijian felt a little regretful that he should have made it clear to the old man that night and told him that his son was going to bring his girlfriend home.
Now the old man knows nothing about it, and he is afraid that something bad will happen when he returns home and sees people.
Zhuang Huaijian was a little worried, so he called his daughter and asked her to go outside to greet her father and inform him in advance that there were guests at home so that he could be mentally prepared.
Zhou Ziying understood his mother's thoughts and knew what to do, so he pretended that something happened outside and went outside to greet his father.
Coincidentally, as soon as Zhou Ziying went out, he saw his father Zhou Jingru coming back with a cane.
What shocked Zhou Ziying was that You Wenyue also came back with Zhou Jingru!
You Wenyue smiled and held Zhou Jingru's arm, and the old and the young walked slowly home.
Because Zhou Jingru and You Wenyue's father were good comrades, and You Wenyue always behaved well in front of the Zhou family, the old couple of the Zhou family liked her very much.
After You Wenyue and Jia Zan got married, their attitude towards Zhou's parents remained as good as before. Although they would not make a special trip to visit them, when they met them, they would always ask about the old couple's well-being and show great concern.
Now that Zhou Ziheng has returned to the capital, You Wenyue has taken the initiative to stick to him. When she saw Zhou Jingru on the way, she came over and offered to send him home.
This scared Zhou Ziying.
If You Wenyue saw Yu Xiaoye, it would be difficult to explain.
It would be fine if You Wenyue had never met Yu Xiaoye. She could explain that Yu Xiaoye was a distant relative of their family and use this to cover up the past.
However, You Wenyue came back in the same carriage with the soldiers from the Corps, and she must have seen Yu Xiaoye on the way.
Ono will definitely guess the relationship between the two.
Given Wen Yue's temper, she probably won't let Xiao Ye have an easy time.
Zhou Ziying had promised his brother that he would take good care of Yu Xiaoye and not let Yu Xiaoye suffer any grievances, so he was determined not to let You Wenyue bully Yu Xiaoye.
So we must never let these two meet!
Thinking of this, Zhou Ziying subconsciously quickened his pace and went forward:
"Dad, Wen Yue!"
Zhou Ziying walked up to the two men and stopped, blocking their way.
Zhou Jingru and You Wenyue had no choice but to stop.
You Wenyue looked at Zhou Ziying and pondered:
"Yingzi, why do I see you here all the time these days? Is Hengzi coming back?"
"No," Zhou Ziying explained hurriedly, "Hengzi has a tight meeting schedule and doesn't have time to go home. You know he always puts work first. Right now, he's completely focused on it, so how could he care less about running all the way home?"
When she heard that Zhou Ziheng would not be returning home for the time being, a hint of disappointment flashed in You Wenyue's eyes.
Zhou Ziying didn't give You Wenyue a chance to react. He reached out and held his father's arm and said:
"Thank you for bringing my dad back. I won't keep you here."
Zhou Jingru said with some dissatisfaction:
"We're already at the door. Let Wenyue come in and sit down. Wenyue, have lunch at our house today."
Zhou Ziying was shocked.
