Chapter 096 Changed gender?
It was getting late and night had already fallen.
There were few pedestrians on the street. Under the guidance of the street lights, Zhou Bingyi and his wife rode their bicycles all the way to the door of Wang Chong's house.
After parking their bicycles, the couple walked up the steps and rang the doorbell. Not long after, the door opened. The person who opened the door was Zheng Juan, who was still wearing an apron.
"Brother? Sister-in-law?" Zheng Juan was a little surprised when she saw the two of them.
"Juan'er!" Hao Dongmei forced a smile, while Zhou Bingyi asked directly, expressionlessly, "Where's mom?"
"Mom is in the living room!" Zhou Bingyi pulled Hao Dongmei past Zheng Juan and walked in directly.
In Zhou Bingyi's opinion, Wang Zhong treated Zhou Zhigang and Zheng Juan so well partly because of his wife, so naturally he would not give Zheng Juan a good look.
As if sensing Zhou Bingyi's malice, Big Hei and Erhei behind the gate immediately started barking. Zheng Juan quickly called out to Big Hei and Erhei.
Hao Dongmei was a little scared. Although Dahei Erhei's body was not strong, the grinning look was quite ferocious, and the barking was loud and powerful. Hao Dongmei was a little scared every time she came over.
Fortunately, after Zheng Juan called Dahei and Erhei, the two dogs stopped barking.
Hao Dongmei held Zhou Bingyi's hand tightly, and the two walked quickly across the courtyard to the living room.
Looking at this posture, you don't have to think about it, you just know that it must be someone who came to ask for a crime. Zheng Juan closed the door, sighed, and quickly followed into the living room without caring about washing the dishes and tidying up.
In the living room, the children gathered around Li Suhua, sitting on the sofa and watching TV. Wang Zhong asked Zheng Juan to ask for leave for them all during the day, so naturally there was no homework.
There was a cartoon on the TV, and Little Tails leaned on Li Suhua's arms, holding a small jar of dried persimmons in his arms. He held one in his hand and handed it to Li Suhua, "Grandma, eat the persimmons."
"Grandma doesn't want to eat it, so you can eat it yourself!"
"Grandma, the persimmons are delicious! Very sweet."
"Grandma doesn't like to eat persimmons, little tail can eat it by himself." Li Suhua said with a smile and pushed little tail's hand back.
Li Suhua was still in a low mood, but the children surrounded her and talked to her in different ways, making her happy and distracting her attention. She had no time to think about anything else, so it was okay.
Zhou Bingyi glanced around and didn't see Wang Zhong in the living room.
"Mom!" Zhou Bingyi greeted and walked into the small hall. Li Suhua was surprised, with a smile on her face, and greeted her eldest son and his wife.
It's just that the smile is somewhat forced, and the expression is not that natural.
Although the children didn't like Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei, they still behaved politely and greeted them immediately.
"Why are you two here?" Li Suhua was not a fool. He quickly realized that it must be because of what happened last night.
Zhou Bingyi pulled Hao Dongmei and walked over. Zhou Cong stood up and made way for them. He walked to Zhou Ming and sat down. The couple sat in Zhou Cong's seat just now.
"Come see you!"
"By the way, Mom, why don't you see Bingkun?" Zhou Bingyi asked after looking around but not seeing Wang Zhong.
"Uncle, what's the matter with my dad?" Before Li Suhua could say anything, Zhou Cong took the lead to stand up, but he still spoke with a certain politeness.
Zhou Cong originally liked Zhou Bingyi very much, but after that time in 1981, the precocious Zhou Cong had a grudge against Zhou Bingyi in his heart. This grudge will not be easily eliminated in his life, but after all, Zhou Bingyi is their elder and he should have it.
Courtesy and respect are definitely indispensable.
Zhou Bingyi didn't hide it, "I'll ask your dad about what happened yesterday."
"My dad just drove to the hospital to deliver meals to Grandpa Ma and Grandma Qu Qu. Normally, my dad would stay with them in the hospital for an hour or two. Maybe I have to take Grandma Qu home today.
By the time he comes back, it will be around nine or ten."
"But if uncle wants to know what happened yesterday, he can ask grandpa or aunt and uncle. There is no need to waste time with my dad."
Zhou Bingyi looked at Zhou Cong who was talking freely, but he didn't get angry. "Some things are better to be discussed with your father in person."
"Bingyi!" Li Suhua frowned slightly, a little worried, "What happened yesterday is over, so don't get involved."
The relationship between Zhou Zhigang and Wang Zhong was already like this, and Li Suhua didn't want Zhou Bingyi to cause any conflicts with Wang Zhong because of this matter.
"If you have time, Hui Guangzi Pian can accompany your father more often."
And Li Suhua didn't want to mention what happened yesterday. She was already regretting the slap she gave Zhou Zhigang yesterday, but she was still angry with Zhou Zhigang in her heart. Otherwise, if it had been before, she would have run back to Guangzi Film by now.
Look at Zhou Zhigang.
Feng Yue got two glasses of water and came over, "Uncle, aunt, drink water."
Normally, when guests come to the door, they will be given tea, but Zhou Bingyi is not a kind guest in the eyes of the children, so the tea naturally turns into plain water.
"I received your call yesterday. I didn't dare to delay for a moment. I rushed back immediately. I met Dad and Hua Cheng on the way. Dad didn't say anything along the way. He didn't answer any questions. He was probably sulking when we got home.
From now on, I take off my shoes and lie down on the kang. This morning, dad didn’t even eat breakfast. He just said he wasn’t hungry when I called him.” Zhou Bingyi sighed, his face full of worry.
"Why!"
Li Suhua was stunned when he heard this, and then subconsciously asked worriedly, "What about lunch and evening? You didn't eat either?"
Anger is anger, worry is worry.
Zhou Bingyi's face froze when he was asked, he shook his head, and said with a self-blaming expression, "I have to go to work during the day, but Hua Cheng is watching him at home, and I haven't had time to go back."
"Uncle is really filial. He knows that grandpa doesn't eat, but he doesn't want to go back to see grandpa, but he comes to my house to look for my dad!" Zhou Ling, a little expert in hating others, is online again.
"Little Tail, let me tell you, don't try to imitate your uncle in the future, you know? Everything has its own priorities. We need to be clear about it."
Little Tail said seriously, "I understand, Third Sister."
"Zhou Ling!" Before Zhou Bingyi could get angry, Zhou Cong immediately scolded him with a straight face, "Why are you talking to your uncle? Your uncle is our elder, how can you be so arrogant!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Uncle is worried about grandma's health, so he came to see grandma. How can he talk nonsense and slander uncle with no evidence or proof?"
Then he said to Zhou Bingyi with an apologetic look, "Uncle, I'm really sorry. Lingling is still young and ignorant, and she speaks without restraint. Your Excellency has a lot of money, and the prime minister's belly can support a boat. Don't be as knowledgeable as her."
"
Zhou Bingyi's face remained as usual, although he felt unhappy in his heart, but Zhou Cong had already said so, it was hard for him, an elder, to be as knowledgeable as Zhou Rong, a child.
Zhou Ling's age is indeed there.
Li Suhua also glared at Zhou Ling. Under the double pressure of Zhou Cong and Li Suhua, Zhou Ling stuck out her tongue and pretended to Zhou Bingyi, "Uncle, I'm sorry, I just told you nonsense. If you are unhappy,
Just hit me a few times."
However, the acting skills still need to be improved.
But who is Zhou Bingyi? He has been in high and low officialdom for so many years, so how can he still be a young boy who is full of emotions and emotions?
He showed a warm and friendly smile and said softly, "It's okay, I'm childish."
"It's okay to just take it as a joke since we are all family members. But if you go outside and be with outsiders, you have to be careful. Talking nonsense can easily offend others."
Zhou Cong quickly pushed Zhou Ling and said, "Thank you uncle quickly."
"Thank you, uncle. I will remember it and I will correct it in the future." Zhou Ling said reluctantly.
But looking at Zhou Bingyi, who looked as usual and didn't take her cynicism to heart at all, but instead talked and educated her, Zhou Ling puffed up her face and became angry instead of being sarcastic.
Compared with Zhou Bingyi, her rank is still too low.
Oh, I’m so angry!
Li Suhua said, "Congcong is right. Bingkun has indeed just left not long ago. He may not know when he will come back."
Zhou Bingyi said, "It's okay. We didn't come here specifically to see Bingkun. I originally wanted to persuade him, so that's fine. He and his dad are probably very angry these days. After a few days, they calm down, I
Please give them some good advice."
Li Suhua sighed, "If only it were so easy to persuade!"
Whether it is Zhou Zhigang or Wang Zhong, they both have the same stubborn temper, the kind that won't go away and will push them backwards.
Zhou Bingyi said, "Mom, we are a family. We don't have trivial disputes. If we have anything to say, we will say it out loud. If anything comes up, we will put it on the table and we will discuss it together and resolve it. You step back,
I gave in half a step and talked everything out, and then we will still be a harmonious family."
Zhou Bingyi said this from the bottom of his heart. Although his relationship with Wang Zhong has not been as good as before in recent years, he still hopes that their family can be well.
Just like when several children were hostile to him just now, although Zhou Bingyi felt uncomfortable, he understood it very well.
Several children had objections to him because of the adoption.
Zhou Bingyi knew very well that this was indeed something he had done unethically. When Hao Dongmei and Jin Yueji asked him, he didn't know what was wrong, but he acquiesced.
Zhou Bingyi immediately regretted it afterwards.
A manly man, who makes a decision every time he spits and spits, must be responsible for the consequences of this decision.
Zhou Bingyi's words directly touched Li Suhua's heart. More than half of her life has passed, and she doesn't know how many days she still has to live happily. What she hopes for is not riches and honors, but that her family can live in harmony and happiness.
!
As long as he can do this, Li Suhua can still wake up smiling from his sleep even if he eats glutinous rice every day.
The mother and son looked at each other, and both saw the sincerity in each other's eyes.
"Bingyi!" Li Suhua had tears in her eyes, her eyes flickered, and her voice was trembling.
But when the words came to his lips, Li Suhua didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly his expression darkened again, "Forget it, it's actually quite good like this now. Just leave Bingkun alone. I'll just tell him. You can go back and persuade him."
I advise your dad to spend more time taking care of him!"
Although Zhou Bingyi is in Jichun, he can't go back home a few times throughout the year, just like a married woman going back to her parents' home.
Zhou Cong smiled and said, "My dad has been very busy recently. He has to be busy with the company and the magazine. I'm afraid he may not have time to see my uncle. If he really has anything important to do recently, I can call him directly."
It’s the same thing if my dad’s company calls me or tells me first, and then I’ll relay it to my dad.”
Zhou Bingyi said, "You are already a high school student. You have a heavy study load, so I won't bother you. I have nothing to do with your dad. We haven't seen each other for a long time. I want to meet him and get together."
, let’s chat and talk about our hearts.”
The two of them exchanged some pleasantries, and Zhou Ling was stunned for a moment, as if they had said everything, and then seemed to have said nothing.
Zheng Juan came over with a plate of oranges and a plate of cut sugar cane, and called to the two of them, "Brother and sister-in-law, please eat some fruit. There is not much good stuff at home. Don't dislike it, brother and sister-in-law."
"No, no, we're just going to see mom. We'll sit there for a while and we'll have to pick up the calligraphy tablets later!" Zhou Bingyi said.
Hao Dongmei said, "Juan'er, you are busy in advance, so don't worry about us."
Zheng Juan also heard about it just now and knew that Zhou Bingyi was not here to cause trouble. She felt relieved and said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll go to the kitchen to clean up. You guys can sit with mom for a while."
"Congcong, greet your uncle and aunt well."
"Okay mom!"
Zhou Ling and Feng Yue looked at each other, stood up and said, "Mom (younger aunt), let me help you!"
······
When Wang Zhong returned home, Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei had already left.
When Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei rushed to the old house, Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng were both there, and Zhou Zhigang was still lying on the kang as in the morning.
Standing outside in the kitchen, Zhou Bingyi opened the curtain and glanced at the east room. Zhou Zhigang was still lying on the kang, facing the east wall and with his back to the door.
"Dad, have you been lying on the kang like this all day?" Zhou Bingyi asked in a low voice.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "That's it, I got up a few times during the day."
"Have you eaten anything?"
Feng Huacheng said, "I didn't eat at noon. I ate some in the evening, but it was very little. After eating, I smoked a few cigarettes and then lay down again."
"Still unwilling to speak?"
Feng Huacheng nodded.
Zhou Rong also said with a worried look, "When I talked to dad, he just responded and refused to say a word. If it lasts for a while, it's fine, but if it lasts for a long time, I'm worried..."
Zhou Bingyi also looked solemn, "Although Dad's body has always been strong, he is getting older, and holding things in his heart is not an option."
"What should we do?" Zhou Rong was anxious. Although she was selfish, and even though she even said she would cut off ties with her parents for Feng Huacheng, she still had feelings for her parents who had loved her since she was a child.
"To untie the bell, you still need the person who tied it." Zhou Bingyi said.
Zhou Rong frowned and looked at Zhou Bingyi, "Are you talking about our mother?"
Zhou Bingyi nodded,
Feng Huacheng was present at the time and knew how angry Li Suhua was at that time. "I'm afraid it won't be that easy."
"Brother, you didn't see how sad my mother was when she cried yesterday."
"Our mother has always been soft-hearted." Zhou Rong's eyes flashed slightly and she said, "If she knew about our father's situation, she wouldn't need us to go find her. She wouldn't be able to sit still and would run back."
Zhou Bingyi also deeply agreed. He could feel it when he was at Wang Zhong's house today. Li Suhua was still very worried about Zhou Zhigang.
Sure enough, as Zhou Rong expected, the next morning, Feng Huacheng was sitting in the back room, and Li Suhua hurried back.
Li Suhua went straight into the east room and looked at Zhou Zhigang, who was lying against the wall with his back to the door and his face to the wall. He felt so angry that he couldn't help but feel angry.
"Zhou Zhigang, what are you doing!"
"It's broad daylight, the sun is shining on my butt, and I'm still lying on the kang!"
Li Suhua's voice almost startled Zhou Zhigang. When he turned around, he saw Li Suhua standing by the kang, looking at him angrily. He couldn't believe it. He rubbed his eyes and it became more and more real.
"You...are you back?" He stumbled even when he spoke.
"You don't eat, you don't say anything, you just lie down all day long. Don't you know the children are worried about you?" The more Li Suhua talked, the angrier she became. She pointed at Zhou Zhigang's nose and started to curse.
In the past, although Li Suhua's status in the family was not low, she had always acted like a good wife and loving mother in front of Zhou Zhigang. Although she occasionally quarreled with Zhou Zhigang, she had never cursed so loudly like now.
.
"I'm sorry!" Zhou Zhigang looked at the aggressive Li Suhua, and for some reason, he suddenly felt guilty, "I...I didn't mean it, I just felt uncomfortable and didn't want to talk!"
"Then why don't you eat? Are you happy watching your children worry about you?"
"I'm not!" Zhou Zhigang was anxious, like an ant on a hot pot, and quickly explained, "I'm just not hungry... I don't want to eat."
"If you're not hungry, why don't you eat? If you're not hungry..."
Li Suhua was full of momentum, but as he was talking, he suddenly stopped talking and looked at Zhou Zhigang, who was sitting on the kang and looking at him with a somewhat twitchy look. His eyes suddenly widened, with a look of shock on his face and full of excitement in his eyes.
The power is unbelievable.
"You...you...you..." Li Suhua pointed at Zhou Zhigang, unable to finish a single breath, and could not even utter a complete sentence.
Zhou Zhigang immediately became anxious when he saw this. He didn't care about the thin clothes he was wearing. He rolled over and jumped off the kang. He supported Li Suhua and asked with a worried look, "Old lady, what's wrong with you? Old lady..."
Old lady..."
Feng Huacheng, who was in the back room, felt nervous when he heard the commotion. He quickly dropped the book in his hand and ran to the east room.
I happened to see Zhou Zhigang help Li Suhua sit on the edge of the kang with a nervous look on his face. He gently patted Li Suhua on the back to smoothen his breathing, and asked about Li Suhua's situation with a worried look on his face.
Seeing Feng Huacheng, Zhou Zhigang quickly ordered him to pour hot water for Li Suhua.
After struggling for a while, Li Suhua finally recovered after exhaling the foul air.
Looking Zhou Zhigang up and down, Li Suhua was filled with confusion. The coquettish posture just now appeared on Zhou Zhigang's body.
In Li Suhua's impression, Zhou Zhigang is a typical male chauvinist, with a hot temper and stubbornness, even more stubborn than a donkey.
Li Suhua couldn't believe her eyes.
"Old lady, how are you? Are you feeling better?" Zhou Zhigang saw Li Suhua looking at him with a confused look on his face, and handed over a water bottle, "Drink some water first."
The concerned tone was exactly the same as when Wang Zhong cared about Zheng Juan.
"What do you want?" Li Suhua lowered her face and asked Zhou Zhigang.
"Old lady, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"
"You're still pretending to be confused here." Seeing Zhou Zhigang's behavior, Li Suhua said in a deep voice, "I ask you why you don't eat?"
"I didn't say I wouldn't eat. I'm not hungry!" Zhou Zhigang looked aggrieved, but looking at Li Suhua's ugly face, he immediately changed his mind and said, "I'll eat right now, I'll eat right now!"
"That transformation, is there anything to eat at home?"
"Yes! There are steamed buns and porridge on the stove!" Feng Huacheng pointed to the small steamer placed on the stove next to him. He had left it in the morning so that Zhou Zhigang could have a warm meal at any time if he was hungry.
Zhou Zhigang walked to the stove in a few steps, opened the lid of the steamer, and reached out to pick up the steaming bowl in the steamer. However, the bowl kept heating in the steam, and Zhou Zhigang's hand was so hot that he retracted it.
Zhou Zhigang looked around, but couldn't find any tools, so he simply retracted his hand, held the edge of the bowl with his sleeves, took out the porridge and steamed buns, and put them on the table.
I searched around but couldn't find any chopsticks, so I blew on the bun and grabbed it with my hands. My hands were so hot that I shook them back and forth a few times. Then I grabbed it, lowered my head and took a big bite, and then started to eat happily.
I took a bite, lowered my head and blew on the white porridge on the table, then took another big bite of the steamed buns, held the wall of the bowl with my sleeves, and took a small mouthful of porridge. Within a short while, I had three large steamed buns and a large bowl of white porridge.
Then Zhou Zhigang wiped him clean with three strikes.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Then he picked up the bowl and turned it over. He smiled at Li Suhua who was sitting on the edge of the Kang and said, "Old lady, look, I've finished eating."
Li Suhua was so shocked by this scene that her eyes went dark, her upper body tilted back, and she fell down.
Dimly, she seemed to hear Zhou Zhigang calling her worriedly.
When Li Suhua woke up, what caught her eyes was Zhou Zhigang's surprised smile.
"Old lady, you wake up!"
Li Suhua was still a little dazed. She pushed herself up and a piece of warm towel fell from her forehead. When Li Suhua took a closer look, she realized that she was already lying on the kang, still covered with a quilt.
"You're awake. You didn't know that you fainted suddenly just now, which scared me." Zhou Zhigang said with a concerned look, "Just wake up! Are you hungry?"
Li Suhua didn't say anything, just looked at Zhou Zhigang with confusion on his face.
A bright smile suddenly appeared on Zhou Zhigang's face, and he said to Li Suhua, "Don't you like meat buns? I'll make them for you right now. Just wait."
After putting down his words, Zhou Zhigang hurriedly ran out.
Li Suhua still felt dizzy, so she lifted up the quilt, sat cross-legged, and looked around. It was indeed the old house of Guangzijia. She had lived here for decades, and it was the same as before, with no changes.
Feng Huacheng just opened the curtain and walked in. When he saw Li Suhua sitting up, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Mom, you are finally awake."
"What happened to me just now?"
"It's nothing, I just fainted."
Just now, Li Suhua suddenly fainted on the kang, which frightened the two of them. Fortunately, they had just lifted Li Suhua onto the kang and put on a hot towel. Zhou Zhigang pinched Li Suhua again, and Feng Huacheng was about to get dressed.
When he went out to call someone, Li Suhua woke up.
Zhou Zhigang took a bowl of white porridge, a pair of chopsticks, and a plate of pickles and placed them on the Kang table.
"The buns will be ready for a while. You should drink some porridge first."
The porridge is leftover from cooking in the morning and has been kept hot in a pot outside.
Putting the chopsticks into Li Suhua's eyes, Zhou Zhigang moved the porridge to Li Suhua, and just sat at the Kang table and looked at her. Seeing that she had not moved yet, he asked, "Aren't you hungry? Why don't you eat?"
Li Suhua was a little confused when she looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar Zhou Zhigang in front of her.
