Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

Sometimes I even thought that it would be great if this child could be my son.

Of course, she only thought about it and never even mentioned it to Zhou Bingyi.

Because she knew that given her brother-in-law's personality, he would never agree to such a thing.

Furthermore, she wanted to go to a hospital in the capital for another check-up to see if she could be cured.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou Bingyi brought Zhou Boyan to the Hao family's house. Before they even entered, they could hear laughter and conversation coming from inside.

Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei exchanged a surprised glance.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, someone came to visit?

As soon as they entered the living room, before they could even speak, Zhou Boyan rushed over excitedly: "Grandpa, Grandma!"

The people talking to Hao's parents were Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen.

Upon hearing Zhou Boyan's voice, the two quickly turned around.

Upon seeing that it was Zhou Boyan, Qu Xiuzhen immediately opened her arms happily and hugged the rushing Zhou Boyan tightly: "Oh, Yan Yan, what are you doing here? Where is your father?"

Ma Shouchang looked at Zhou Boyan happily and reached out to pat him on the head a few times: "Yan Yan, how did you get here?"

“I came with my uncle and aunt!” Zhou Boyan said, looking at Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen.

"Uncle, Aunt?"

Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen looked at Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei with some curiosity.

Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei were also somewhat bewildered.

Zhou Bingyi didn't recognize the two people, but Hao Dongmei did: "Uncle Ma, Aunt Qu, do you know Yan Yan?"

"Of course I know him, he's our godson!" Ma Shouchang said proudly.

Because Zhou Bingkun and the two men were close friends despite their age difference, their families also visited each other.

Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen took a liking to Zhou Boyan the first time they met him, and insisted on recognizing him as their godchild.

Zhou Bingkun thought this was a good thing, so he did not object.

So they became Zhou Boyan's godparents.

Because of this relationship, Zhou Bingkun would often bring Zhou Boyan to visit them.

After a while, Zhou Boyan became quite close to them.

Hearing Ma Shouchang's words, Hao Dongmei found it somewhat unbelievable.

He never expected that Zhou Bingkun's family would have such a relationship with Uncle Ma and Aunt Qu.

Looking at Hao Dongmei with some curiosity, Hao's mother asked, "Dongmei, what's going on? Whose child is this?"

“Dad, Mom, this is Yan Yan, the eldest son of Bingyi’s younger brother Zhou Bingkun, whom I’ve told you about before,” Hao Dongmei quickly replied. “I just didn’t expect that Uncle Ma and the others would also know Bingkun’s family!”

Only then did Mr. and Mrs. Hao understand the relationship between them.

They didn't actually know much about their in-laws.

I've only heard my daughter mention it a few times.

But the daughter talked about Zhou Boyan the most, so they all remembered him.

Hao's mother knew about her daughter's situation, so she understood why her daughter liked Zhou Boyan.

Hao's mother continued, "Why didn't you come back yesterday?"

Zhou Bingyi quickly explained that he had drunk too much in his excitement yesterday.

This was the reason he had discussed with Hao Dongmei on the way; he didn't want Hao's parents to know about the discord in their family.

Hao's mother didn't say anything, but Hao's father said in a deep voice, "Bingyi, drinking is fine, but you must never let drinking cause you to make mistakes, understand?"

"Understood, Dad!" Zhou Bingyi nodded quickly.

Seeing that Mr. Hao did not say anything more, Mrs. Hao introduced Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen to Zhou Bingyi: "Bingyi, this is your Uncle Ma and Aunt Qu! Your Uncle Ma is the dean of the Military Academy. We have been old friends for many years. They live in a courtyard not far from us."

Zhou Bingyi immediately understood what Hao's mother meant and quickly greeted her respectfully.

Looking at Zhou Bingyi, Ma Shouchang smiled and said, "Since you are Bingkun's elder brother and Yanyan's uncle, then we are related by blood. Just call me 'Uncle'!"

Because Zhou Boyan was there, Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen did not rush to leave, but instead talked to Zhou Boyan.

When Ma Shouchang asked about his father, Zhou Boyan honestly replied, "Grandpa, my dad had a fight with Grandpa and Aunt yesterday, they..."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Bingyi quickly interjected, "Yan Yan!"

He already had little standing in the Hao family. If his parents-in-law knew that their siblings were not getting along, who knows what they would think of him!

Although he stopped Zhou Boyan from saying anything further, everyone had heard what he said before.

The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became awkward.

Qu Xiuzhen was a smart woman. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, she immediately smiled and said, "Yanyan, Grandma will take you outside to play for a while! Old Ma, didn't you say you were going to build a snowman for Yanyan?"

Ma Shouchang slapped his forehead: "Oh right, I almost forgot! Brother Hao, Sister Jin, let's take Yan Yan to play for a while."

Mr. and Mrs. Hao responded with smiles.

After they left, Mr. Hao immediately stood up: "Dongmei, Bingyi, you two talk with your mother for a while. I still have work to do, so I'm going to the study first."

Zhou Bingyi looked rather unwell; he could clearly sense his father-in-law's perfunctory attitude towards him.

Although he didn't expect his father-in-law to value him, this perfunctory attitude still made him feel uncomfortable.

Hao's mother saw through her son-in-law's thoughts at a glance, but she couldn't say anything about the Zhou family's affairs.

The three chatted for a while, and then Hao Dongmei told her mother that she was going to her father-in-law's house for lunch.

Although Hao's mother was somewhat disappointed, she did not object.

Compared to Hao's father, Hao's mother was actually quite open-minded.

After talking with her mother for a while, Hao Dongmei made an excuse to go out and play with Zhou Boyan.

Zhou Bingyi was left alone, awkwardly facing Hao's mother.

Hao's mother asked with some curiosity, "Bingyi, I heard Dongmei say that your younger brother works at a publishing house and has been admitted to a university this year. Which university is it?"

Hao's mother was curious because she knew about Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen's situation.

The fact that they would recognize a child as their godchild shows that they must really like the child's father, Zhou Bingkun.

"Also in the capital, like Dongmei, it's Yenching Medical College."

"So you two brothers are going to university in the same city! That's good, you can help each other out." Mother Hao nodded.

“Not only my brother, but my sister also got into university, just like me, at Peking University. However, I majored in philosophy, and she majored in Chinese literature.”

"Really?" This time, Hao's mother was genuinely surprised.

The fact that all three of Zhou's children got into university, and all of them were prestigious universities, really impressed her.

Mrs. Hao smiled and said, "All three of your children have been admitted to prestigious universities. Your parents are truly blessed!"

Hearing what Hao's mother said, Zhou Bingyi smiled.

He said this to save face for his family and to make his in-laws look at them in a new light.

Time quickly passed to the seventh day of the lunar month.

At Zhou Bingkun's home, Zheng Juan looked at Zhou Bingkun and asked, "Bingkun, Dad is leaving soon. Aren't you going to see him off?"

“I’m not going!” Zhou Bingkun said without hesitation.

Zheng Juan wanted to persuade him further: "Bingkun, I know you're angry about Dad's favoritism, but no matter what, he's still an elder!"

"Juan'er, this isn't as simple as you think! If I apologize, it might cause even more trouble later!"

Zhou Bingkun knew his father's personality very well, so he was determined not to admit his mistake.

Besides, it wasn't his fault, so why should he admit it?

Zheng Juan looked at Zhou Bingkun with some incomprehension: "Bingkun, I think you're overthinking it! Dad is just angry that you don't listen to him. As for favoritism, no one can be completely impartial."

“Juan’er, some things can’t be tolerated!” Zhou Bingkun said to Zheng Juan. “It is our responsibility as children to be filial to our parents, but we must also have our own thoughts, understand?”

Zheng Juan shook her head: "I don't understand! I knew it was such a simple thing, but you all made it so complicated!"

In Zheng Juan's view, harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things!

Sometimes, even if it means suffering some losses or injustices, as long as things are alright at home, it's acceptable.

However, Zhou Bingkun thought that sometimes taking a step back does not necessarily lead to a brighter future!

Because if you take a step back, others will take a step forward, pushing you step by step until they drive you to a dead end.

At that point, you'll only have two choices: die in misery or rise up in rebellion.

Therefore, for Zhou Bingkun, the premise for him to take a step back is that others also take a step back.

Zhou Bingkun didn't want to get entangled with Zheng Juan on this matter: "Let's not talk about this anymore. I asked you to pack your things. How's that going?"

"Everything that needs to be prepared is almost ready!" Zheng Juan looked at Zhou Bingkun with some hesitation. "Bingkun, are you really going to take us to the capital with you? If we come along, we'll definitely be a burden to you!"

Zhou Bingkun smiled and touched her face: "Don't worry, I will find a way to support you and ensure that your quality of life will be better than it is now!"

It's been seven or eight years now, and a great era is just around the corner!

With the guidance of everyone in the chat group, Zhou Bingkun will definitely not lack money!

Zheng Juan asked with some worry, "What if Dad doesn't let Mom come with us?"

"Don't worry about Mom, she'll definitely listen to me," Zhou Bingkun said confidently.

"What about Yueyue? Mom said that my sister and brother-in-law probably won't take Yueyue to the capital."

Zhou Bingkun said without hesitation, "Yueyue will definitely stay with us! I'm even more worried about leaving this child with them."

"It's settled then! I'll go to the capital in a few days to arrange the house and everything else, then I'll come back to pick you up! Once Dad and the others have left, you go and bring Mom and Yueyue back right away, okay?"

Zheng Juan nodded, indicating that she understood.

At this moment, Zheng Guangming hesitated and said, "Brother-in-law, maybe I shouldn't go! I..."

"Guangming, how many times have I told you, you're not allowed to say things like that again!" Zhou Bingkun interrupted Zheng Guangming directly. "If you keep doing this, your brother-in-law will really get angry!"

Although Zheng Guangming couldn't see, he could tell from Zhou Bingkun's tone and didn't dare to continue.

In the afternoon, Cai Xiaoguang came to see Zhou Bingkun.

Cai Xiaoguang was quite disappointed to learn that Zhou Rong was not with Zhou Bingkun.

Looking at Cai Xiaoguang's appearance, Zhou Bingkun couldn't help but sigh: This kid is really a lovestruck fool.

During the subsequent conversation, Cai Xiaoguang also revealed his second purpose for coming here.

That is, he also got into university, but the tractor factory director was unwilling to let him leave, so he wanted to ask Zhou Bingyi for help.

Of course, the main thing was to ask Zhou Bingyi's father-in-law for help.

After hearing Cai Xiaoguang's purpose, Zhou Bingkun shook his head: "Brother Xiaoguang, I don't think there's much hope of getting my older brother's father-in-law to help!"

Cai Xiaoguang asked somewhat unconsciously, "Really? With your elder brother's father-in-law's status, if he speaks up, even our factory's Party Secretary would have to give him face. How could there be no hope?"

“I’m not saying his words are useless, but you don’t understand his personality!” Zhou Bingkun explained. “They’ve been overthrown, so they’re very sensitive to everything! What seems like a simple sentence to you might not be what they think. So you understand?”

Cai Xiaoguang naturally understood: "But your older brother is his son-in-law, so even if he pleads on your behalf, it won't make a difference?"

“Not every important person is willing to help. Given your background, you must know this better than I do!” Zhou Bingkun said slowly.

Cai Xiaoguang's face turned grim: "If even Brother Bingyi's father-in-law isn't willing to help, who else can I turn to?"

However, Cai Xiaoguang quickly remembered the time when Zhou Bingkun was imprisoned: "Bingkun, I remember you have a good relationship with Dean Ma of the provincial compound, right? Could you please help me and ask Dean Ma to put in a good word for me?"

“Since you’re in trouble, I’ll definitely help! I’ll ask Uncle Ma later.” Zhou Bingkun didn’t refuse Cai Xiaoguang.

After all, Cai Xiaoguang had helped him back then, and Zhou Bingkun still remembered his kindness.

Upon hearing that Zhou Bingkun was willing to help, Cai Xiaoguang was overjoyed: "Bingkun, thank you, thank you so much!"
