Chapter 304: No Man’s Land Outside the City



Zhou Zhiyan shook his head: "No one told me that. I can see it myself when I grow up. Great grandfather, can you see it when you are this old?"

Zhou Benyu's expression froze.

Seeing that Zhou Benyu didn't answer him, Zhou Zhiyan asked, "Grandpa, you are so old, don't you know how to see?"

Zhou Benyu was stunned for several seconds when asked by a little kid. How come he couldn't understand?

That's because he didn't go to see it.

Zhou Zhiyan said like a little devil, "You understand it, but you just don't want to admit it, right?"

Zhou Benyu felt ashamed. He had lived to such an old age, but he couldn't see things as clearly as a child!

"Although we are all your descendants, we do not have the same great-grandmother. I just like my own great-grandmother."

"Grandpa, do you like your current great-grandmother very much?"

Do you like it?

He doesn't like it at all!

But facing the innocent eyes of the child, he didn't know how to tell him whether he liked it or not. If he said something too profound, the child would not understand.

"Great-grandfather?" Zhou Zhiyan was still waiting for Zhou Benyu to reply.

Zhou Benyu had no choice but to say, "You are a child."

Zhou Zhiyan said seriously: "What's wrong with children? Children are just like adults. They need to eat and breathe air. They are all human beings!"

This is what his mother told him!

Zhou Benyu: “!”

He suddenly smiled and said, "Grandpa is wrong. He shouldn't think that you are a child and don't understand the ways of this world."

Zhou Zhiyan nodded and said, "So, great-grandfather hasn't told me yet, do you like your current great-grandmother?"

Zhou Benyu looked up and saw Song Lingshu coming down from upstairs. He didn't know what was going on in his mind, so he said, "It's just a responsibility."

Zhou Zhiyan asked in his childish voice, "Grandpa, are you only responsible for her?"

Zhou Zhiyan looked at Zhou Benyu with his clear yet ignorant eyes: "So great-grandfather has no responsibility towards my great-grandmother, right?"

When he asked this question, even Zhou Xiuyun next to him paused.

That's a good question, little guy!

Although no one mentioned it again after so many years, it was he who married his own grandmother, but later they ended up living like that.

Zhou Benyu sat there for a long time.

Zhou Zhiyan was called away by Zhou Xiuyun, who gave him a thumbs-up: "Great."

Zhou Zhiyan smiled and said, "Mom said that as a human being, we must be fair and just. When fairness and justice are impossible, we must follow our heart and have a bottom line as a human being."

Although he was young, he understood why they were all grandmas, grandpa's ex-wives, and why they enjoyed everything in the big house.

Grandma will have to live a hard life somewhere else.

Zhou Xiuyun touched Zhou Zhiyan's head and felt grateful to Chi Lanlan for raising her son so well.

"Yes, Xiaoyan has a very positive outlook on life, which is great."

Zhou Benyu sat outside for a while. As customers were coming and going in the store, Song Lingshu did not come out again.

Zhou Benyu sighed and walked out of the store.

Sun Yu was about to go back when he saw Zhou Benyu. He immediately became unhappy and ran over to ask, "Grandpa, why are you here?"

Zhou Benyu looked at the shop across the street, then glanced at the shop behind him and asked, "Where's your own brain?"

Sun Yu's face froze!

She just came over to say hello, but she didn't expect to be scolded like that.

She looked at Zhou Benyu aggrievedly and said, "Grandpa, you are being too much to me."

"Why is it excessive?"

"Ask yourself? What did you do?"

"I didn't do anything, why would Grandpa say that?"

"Why do you want to make your store exactly like someone else's? Can't you design it yourself? Can't you do it? Why do you want to copy others?"

Faced with a barrage of questions, Sun Yu said, "Grandpa? What are you saying? There are millions of identical things and people in this world, and there are even people who look exactly the same. I just happened to like the way my store is decorated, so I decorated it like this. Am I wrong?"

"I didn't use other people's money to decorate. I spent money on something I like. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"That's just far-fetched talk." Zhou Benyu glared at her angrily.

"Grandpa, even if you're partial, there has to be a limit. I opened this shop through my own hard work, and none of you helped me. But now you're all standing in front of me and blaming me. Don't you think you're being too much?"

Zhou Benyu was pointed at by Sun Yu. He stood there and looked at Sun Yu deeply.

Sun Yu didn't want to talk to him: "When I was setting up the store, no one stood up to help me, and now that I've succeeded, there are quite a few people blaming me."

She was already unhappy. She used to think that her grandparents were the best, but now it seems that they are really annoying to her.

"You are all bad people. None of you is willing to think about me."

After saying that, Sun Yu turned and ran away. Zhao Fang, who was standing next to him, quickly explained, "Grandpa Zhou, it's been very hard for A-Yu to run this store. She had no one to help her. She figured it out step by step."

"Besides, our store is bigger than theirs, so we can't blame her. She has no experience at all, so there's nothing wrong with copying the houses on the street. Besides, the houses on the street are all the same, so why can't the store be exactly the same?"

"Business is all about ability," he said, turning around and running after Sun Yu.

Zhou Benyu was left standing there. From top to bottom, no matter which link, no one was under his control.

Zhou Zhiyan observed secretly for a moment, then ran back to complain to Zhou Xiuyun: "Aunt, I just saw my great grandfather and that bad woman across the street seemed to be arguing."

Zhou Xiuyun smiled and said, "We don't care how they quarrel."

"Okay." Zhou Zhiyan nodded.

After Jia Lizhen left, she went to a place. If it weren't for the important relationship between Sun Yu and her daughter, which made her feel strange, she wouldn't have come here.

This is a dilapidated house in the suburbs, among the silver grass.

Because it was just a ruin, no one would come here, so the car stopped two kilometers away.

Jia Lizhen took the trouble to come over by herself.

While walking, look behind you.

Only after making sure that no one is following you will go to your destination.

When she reached a half-wall, she suddenly squatted down with a serious expression, because she found traces of someone walking on the ground.

Jia Lizhen's face turned ugly.

After removing the weeds on top, a wooden board was revealed underneath. He took out the key from his body and opened the lock next to the board.

Lifting the wooden plank, you'll see a wooden ladder below, just wide enough for one person to descend. Below is a completely different scene...
