Chapter 13 We Are All Selfish

Zhou Rong, who was far away in Beijing, heard the call from her elder brother Zhou Bingyi. She was very upset that her father Zhou Zhiqiang rejected their suggestions.

It was as if, without Zhou Bingkun's wholehearted care for Zhou's mother Li Suhua, this "filial" and favored daughter of heaven was very sad, and she also blamed her "unreasonable" brother Zhou Bingkun in her heart.

"Huacheng, my dad rejected my and my eldest brother's proposal and disagreed with letting Zhou Bingkun give up going to college!"

"Hey! I told you! You shouldn't have mentioned this matter! I heard that in 1976, Shao Jingwen, the editor-in-chief of Jiangliao Publishing House, wanted one of my poems to commemorate the great Premier Zhou! Zhou Bingkun clearly had my poems in his hands, but refused to provide them to Editor-in-Chief Shao Jingwen. He is so selfish!" When mentioning Zhou Bingkun, Feng Huacheng said with anger that he trembled all over.

"Just think about it, how could such a selfish and cowardly person possibly understand the painstaking efforts of you and your brother Zhou Bingyi! Therefore, your and Bingyi's efforts are destined to be in vain!"

"Yes! Since I left Northeast China in 1969, I have never been back! In the past ten years, I don't know how my brother became so selfish!" Zhou Rong said with emotion.

"No! I can't let Zhou Bingkun lead Feng Yue astray! Didn't we just split up a house? I must keep Yueyue by my side and instill correct values in her!"

"Yes! Zhou Rong, what you said makes so much sense! Why don't we just take Yueyue to Beijing before school starts!" After hearing Zhou Rong's idea, Feng Huacheng agreed with it and said in approval.

"Yes! Huacheng, let's go back to Jiangliao!" Zhou Rong was very happy with Feng Huacheng's support.

Seeing Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng suddenly return, Zhou's mother Li Suhua was really happy. After ten years, she finally saw her daughter.

Unlike Zhou's mother Li Suhua's surprise, Zhou Bingkun felt that Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng were very strange this time. They always treated him with an ugly look. Thinking about Zhou Rong's willfulness and Feng Huacheng's "scum" in the original drama, Zhou Bingkun just smiled indifferently in his heart.

Hearing that Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng were going to take Feng Yue away, Zhou's mother Li Suhua felt reluctant. Yueyue had come to the Zhou family since the Spring Festival of 1976.

Over the past three years, Zhou's mother, Li Suhua, has really fallen in love with her precious granddaughter, and Zheng Juan, who is standing by, is also very uncomfortable.

"Juan'er, it's just right that Yueyue is gone! Let's have a daughter of our own!" Seeing Zheng Juan's reluctance, Zhou Bingkun whispered comfortingly in Zheng Juan's ear.

Zheng Juan was suddenly very moved by Zhou Bingkun's proposal. The reason why she was against having a third child before was really because she already regarded Yueyue as her own daughter.

Now that Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng have taken Yueyue away, everyone is happy.

Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng took Yueyue away from the Zhou family. Looking at the backs of the three of them leaving, Zhou's mother Li Suhua felt very sad.

Zhou Rong came and left on the same day, with no intention of staying overnight at the Zhou family.

Seeing Zhou's mother, Li Suhua, unhappy, Zhou Bingkun and Zheng Juan looked at each other helplessly, then whispered to Zheng Juan, "We need to celebrate today! I'll go out and buy some food! I'll cook for you today and make you some of my real specialties. You stay home and chat with Mom!"

"Yeah! I get it! Go ahead!"

Looking at the sumptuous dinner on the table, Zhou's mother, Li Suhua, was extremely surprised. "Kun'er, today isn't a festival, how did you prepare so many delicious dishes? You should have kept your sister Zhou Rong and your brother-in-law Feng Huacheng!"

"Mom, I got into university! We have to celebrate anyway! And my sister Zhou Rong needs to make arrangements in Beijing, unlike me, who lives so close to home and doesn't need to prepare in advance!" Zhou Bingkun said soothingly. "Yeah! That makes sense! Your brother-in-law Feng Huacheng also has his own work, so he definitely won't have time to stay longer!"

"But, Kun'er, I'm so surprised that you got into college this time! You've really brought honor to your mother! When I saw your Aunt Qiao's envious look, I was so happy!"

After Zhou's mother Li Suhua finished speaking, she saw the two little boys, Zhou Cong and Zhou Ming, eating their dinner without looking up. She smiled even more happily, "Eat slowly, my two little ancestors! Your sister Yueyue has been taken away by your aunt and uncle. No one will compete with you for food!"

"Haha, Mom, Zheng Juan and I almost treat Yueyue as our own daughter! She was taken away by my sister, and I still feel a little reluctant! I plan to have another daughter with Juaner! Mom, you don't object, right?"

"I have no objection! I strongly support it! I like girls too! The more the better!" Zhou's mother Li Suhua said happily.

"Oh, and one more thing, Mom, if you meet a suitable girl, introduce her to Guangming! He's of marriageable age now, and we'll all be relieved if he gets married!"

"Okay! Mom knows! I'll keep an eye on it for you!" Zhou's mother Li Suhua agreed with a smile.

Zheng Juan, who was standing by, was extremely happy when she heard the arrangements made by Zhou Bingkun and his mother Li Suhua. She was glad that she had married a good man, Zhou Bingkun, and completely changed her destiny.

Looking at Zhou Bingyi, who had rushed back from Chongqing, Hao Dongmei said distressedly, "Bingyi, you're back? How are things?"

"Oh! It's not ideal! My dad was unwilling to do it at all! In the end, he turned the tables on me and made me give up the chance to go to college and stay at home!" Zhou Bingyi explained with a helpless smile.

"Ah? Our father is too partial! How can he treat you, his eldest son, like this!" Hao Dongmei widened her eyes in surprise.

"Haha, Dad was just shutting me up with words! He didn't really want me to give up going to college!" Zhou Bingyi said comfortingly.

"Going to college is a must! If you don't go to college, my parents will definitely not agree to our marriage!"

"I know! I know everything! I will definitely go to college!" Zhou Bingyi said with a headache when he thought of his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

"Dad doesn't agree! What does Zhou Rong say?" Hao Dongmei thought of Zhou Rong who was far away in Beijing, giving remote commands.

"Oh! It's hard to explain! Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng are also very disappointed with our brother Zhou Bingkun! They rushed back to Jiangliao from the capital overnight to bring Yueyue back to them!" Zhou Bingyi explained with a wry smile.

"Zhou Rong is worried that Yueyue will become selfish and ignorant if she follows her uncle Zhou Bingkun around!"

"Well! I think Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng's decision is right! Your brother Zhou Bingkun is not only selfish, but also particularly nosy! When I think about it, we almost broke up because of his meddling, I hate him very much!" Hao Dongmei said with deep agreement on the behavior of Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng, and still couldn't let go of Zhou Bingkun's meddling.

"Forget it! Don't mention Zhou Bingkun! It affects my mood too much!" Zhou Bingyi was also helpless about his younger brother Zhou Bingkun.
