"And me? I've stayed home with my mom for seven years straight. To put it bluntly, am I not more filial than my sister? Am I not more sensible than her?"

"Why are you treating me like this when I come here? Tell me, why?"

Zhou Bingkun's series of questions made Zhou Zhigang's chest heave with anger, and his lips tremble as he looked at Zhou Bingkun.

Li Suhua was so frightened that she kept patting his back to help him breathe.

Zhou Bingyi had already witnessed the power of Zhou Bingkun's words, so he didn't dare to offer any advice at this moment, fearing that Zhou Bingkun would implicate him.

As for Hao Dongmei, she kept her head down like a quail, not daring to make the slightest sound.

"Are you questioning me? Who's my father, me or you? When did it become your place to lecture me?" Zhou Zhigang shouted at Zhou Bingkun. "You are you, and your sister is your sister. Why are you comparing yourself to your sister? What kind of suffering does your sister endure outside? Don't you feel sorry for her and say such things? She's your own sister. Where is your conscience?"

Zhou Bingkun's expression turned to disbelief. Even though he knew Zhou Zhigang was biased, he was still shocked by his father's words!

Not only him, but even Zhou Bingyi swallowed hard.

He knew his father favored his sister, but he never imagined it would be to this extent!

On the matter of his younger sister, he agreed with Zhou Bingkun's words.

My sister did something like this, and my father still expects the family to feel sorry for her?

Hao Dongmei was speechless. She had known Zhou Bingyi for many years and knew a little about Zhou Rong.

As a woman herself, she admired Zhou Rong's courage in pursuing love, but psychologically she did not agree with Zhou Rong's actions because they were wrong.

On the contrary, she had been in more contact with Zhou Bingkun and Zheng Juan these past two days. She felt that Zhou Bingkun was very sensible, clear-headed, and polite to her.

Needless to say, Zheng Juan is definitely a woman with a very good temper and personality.

It was at this moment that she realized how biased her father-in-law was!

Zhou Bingkun was exhausted. What could he say to such a doting father?

Zhou Bingkun sighed and said, "Dad, since you put it that way, then maybe I really am heartless! But Zheng Juan and I are already like this. If you're still not happy, do whatever you want. You can even beat me up."

Seeing Zhou Bingkun's state, Zhou Zhigang trembled with anger and scolded Li Suhua beside him, "Look at your son! How has he become like this?"

Li Suhua's expression was also not good. She glared at Zhou Bingkun reproachfully, and then comforted Zhou Zhigang: "Alright, honey, they are all your own children. Why are you so angry? It's been seven years. It's not easy for the family to have a reunion dinner. Do you have to ruin it?"

"Kun'er, quickly apologize to your father."

Zhou Bingkun obediently apologized: "Dad, I'm sorry, I was wrong! It's all my fault. You can hit me or scold me as you please, I promise I won't fight back."

Zhou Zhigang really wanted to punch him a couple of times for mistaking him for someone else.

But considering he only comes back once every seven years, he suppressed his anger and didn't let it out: "Hmph, what's the point of celebrating the New Year if we can't even have a family reunion dinner at home?"

Seeing that Zhou Zhigang was still making a fuss, Zhou Bingkun suddenly shouted into the room, "Juan'er, bring the property certificate over!"

"Property ownership certificate?" Zhou Bingkun's words left everyone, including Zhou Zhigang, utterly astonished.

Zhou Zhigang looked at Li Suhua, but Li Suhua also looked confused.

Zheng Juan quickly came out of the room, holding a small notebook, and handed it to Zhou Bingkun.

Zhou Bingkun then handed the items to Li Suhua. Li Suhua took a look and suddenly realized that she was illiterate, so she handed the property certificate to Zhou Zhigang.

Zhou Zhigang didn't even have time to be angry; he picked up the property certificate and started looking at it.

When he saw Zhou Bingkun's name clearly written on the property certificate, he was dumbfounded.

Zhou Bingyi was also very curious, so he stuck his head over and then exclaimed in surprise, "Bingkun, is this the property certificate for this house? Isn't this house rented? How come it's in your name?"

Zhou Bingkun nodded and said, "This is the property certificate for this house. I bought it last year."

Although houses are not easy to trade now, as long as you have people and money, there is a way.

It just so happens that the owner of this house is a retired publishing house leader, while Zhou Bingkun is now a pillar of the publishing house, so the house was transferred to his name smoothly.

All of this has gone through layers of procedures and is a legitimate transaction. There will absolutely be no situation like the one in the future video where you are being deceived.

"You bought it?" Zhou Bingyi asked, his face full of shock.

The same goes for everyone else.

This house is so much better than the one in their neighborhood!

The house is large and in a good location.

They were truly shocked that Zhou Bingkun could afford such a house!

"Bingkun, how much did you spend on this house?" Li Suhua asked eagerly.

"The owner of this house is also a retired publishing house employee, from the same unit as me. They didn't ask for much. The house, land, and some furniture cost a total of 1,500 yuan to buy."

"Fifteen hundred yuan?"

Upon hearing this number, both Li Suhua and Zhou Bingyi were secretly astonished.

Li Suhua turned to Zhou Zhigang and asked, "Honey, did we lose money buying this house for 1,500 yuan?"

Zhou Zhigang remained silent for a while, his gaze still fixed on the property certificate.

In the end, I'll tell the truth: "It's not expensive!"

He just came all the way here and knows very well that this location is excellent.

I just walked around the house again, and it's definitely a great house.

1,500 yuan is a lot of money, but buying this house is definitely worth it!

Moreover, they also have a land certificate, so they definitely got a good deal.

However, he had just said that this was not home, and now he was instantly proven wrong, which made him feel very bad.

Upon receiving this reply, Li Suhua snatched the property certificate from Zhou Zhigang with a joyful expression, stroking it repeatedly with both hands: "Great, great! This is our own house! This is our own house, no longer a rented one."

She has lived here for several years and has truly fallen in love with the place.

She had once fantasized that this was her own house, but she was still quite rational and knew that this place would never truly belong to her.

Now that Zhou Bingkun has suddenly told her that he has bought the house, she is naturally extremely excited.

How can a rented house compare to your own house?

"Bingkun, Mom knew you'd be the most successful one!"

Zhou Bingkun said with a smile, "Mom, now this house is ours! You don't have to worry about so much anymore. You can decorate it however you want, however you want."

Li Suhua's face lit up with a smile: "You child, you always know how to say nice things! Now Mom can live in peace. This house is so big, even if Xiao Rong and the others come back, it will definitely be enough for them."

Although Zhou Bingyi was shocked, he sincerely congratulated Zhou Bingkun: "Bingkun, congratulations! Of the three of us siblings, you are the most successful! You've only been working for a few years and you've already bought your own house. You're much better than me."

Zhou Bingkun could tell that Zhou Bingyi's congratulations were genuine and without any pretense, so he also sincerely said, "Brother, you and I are different. You serve the country and the people, while I am just a worker. We can't compare like that!"

Zhou Zhigang had fallen silent at this point.

The moment he saw the property certificate, he suddenly realized that his youngest son was no longer the troublemaker who would make mistakes at the drop of a hat and be beaten and scolded by him.

The youngest son has started working, gotten married, had a son, and even bought his own house.

From any perspective, her youngest son is outstanding.

His impression of his youngest son was still from seven years ago, so he would feel inexplicably angry whenever his youngest son said something unpleasant.

In his anger, he was completely unaware of his youngest son's change.

Chapter 170, Zhou Zhigang's Reflection: His Stubbornness is Outstanding! (Please Subscribe!)

Looking back, the reason he opposed his youngest son's marriage to Zheng Juan was not because he wanted to go against his youngest son.

Instead, he felt that his youngest son would have a difficult and unhappy life if he married Zheng Juan.

But as it stands now, the youngest son has not only not experienced hardship or unhappiness, but is actually doing very well!

Zheng Juan is also very filial and sensible, a qualified wife.

So in that instant, he suddenly understood why his youngest son had this attitude.

Because from the moment he met her, he never gave her a kind look.

Realizing his mistake, Zhou Zhigang fell silent.

Given his personality, even if he knows he's wrong, he'd never apologize.

On the contrary, he stubbornly believed that even if he was wrong, Zhou Bingkun should not treat him like this, and that he did not respect him as a father at all.

However, faced with all this, Zhou Zhigang could no longer bring himself to reprimand Zhou Bingkun.

The first New Year's Eve dinner in seven years ended hastily.

After tidying everything up, Zheng Juan returned to her room and saw Zhou Bingkun lying on the bed reading a book, while Guangming was playing with Zhou Boyan on the cot.

She sat down next to Zhou Bingkun: "Bingkun, you shouldn't have treated Dad like that today. Dad looks really sad!"

Zhou Bingkun put down his book and looked at Zheng Juan: "Then what should I do? Just let him say what he wants? Let him curse me?"

"He's your father, so what if he scolds you a few times? Why are you so stubborn? Can't you just back down? Why argue with him? What kind of grudge could there be between a father and son?"

Having been with Zhou Bingkun for several years, Zheng Juan always went along with him.

But today, she still wants to talk about Zhou Bingkun.

Because she knew it wasn't easy for Zhou Zhigang to come back, she didn't want to see the father and son at odds.

Zhou Bingkun knew his wife meant well, but he was still uncomfortable, so he casually replied, "Okay, I understand. I'll just go along with him starting tomorrow."

"Then you have to keep your word?"

"Okay, okay, this is so annoying, go to sleep!"

Li Suhua and Zhou Zhigang were also awake in their room at this time.

Zhou Zhigang sat on the edge of the bed, his eyes scanning the room. Suddenly, he exclaimed, "This place is definitely much better than the one with the optical mark!"

Li Suhua laughed out loud, and looked at Zhou Zhigang reproachfully, saying, "You know it yourself! Seeing Kun'er so successful, you must be very happy, right? But you pretend not to care. You can fool the children, but you can't fool my eyes!"

Zhou Zhigang retorted, "Why am I happy? Buying a house makes me successful? If that's the case, there are plenty of successful people in the world!"

"Still pretending! Let's not talk about anything else, just in the Guangzi area, which child is more successful than our Kun'er? Which one can afford this house?"

"No, not at all!" Zhou Zhigang also acknowledged Zhou Bingkun's excellence. "But when I see that kid, I get angry! I'm his father, and look how he treats me!"

Li Suhua looked at Zhou Zhigang speechlessly: "Bingkun's attitude was bad, but yours was good? Ever since you came home, have you ever given Bingkun a kind look?"

“I’m his father!” Zhou Zhigang emphasized, his neck stiff.

Li Suhua rolled her eyes at Zhou Zhigang: "I know you're his father! But you don't know, Kun'er and Juan'er knew you were coming back and started preparing at home a long time ago! They bought all kinds of New Year's goods for the house. They even bought a lot, saying they wanted you to take them with you when you leave. If Bingkun didn't care about you, would he do this?"

Zhou Zhigang was somewhat skeptical: "Really? That kid would remember me?"

"If you don't believe me, I'll take you to see it now. Those things are in Bingyi's room!" Li Suhua was about to get up.

Zhou Zhigang waved his hand: "Forget it, it's so late at night, what's the point of going to see it! I'll just believe it."

"You believed me, and you still have this attitude?"

Zhou Zhigang said with dissatisfaction, "Can you blame me for all this? It's all because of that brat. He got married without telling me. He doesn't respect me at all! Doesn't he realize that if I knew Zheng Juan was so wonderful, would I have stood in the way of his happiness?"

Li Suhua sighed: "So, Kun'er is just like you, both very stubborn! Honey, I have to tell you, I've known Zheng Juan for several years, and she's truly a good girl."

“I have never seen such a good daughter-in-law as her. Other people’s daughters-in-law are always finding fault with me. But she was always filial to me before we got married; after we got married, she was even better to me.”

"To be honest, I've raised three children, but none of them are as considerate as Juan'er! Kun'er is so lucky to have married Zheng Juan.

"So, honey, even if you have complaints about Kun'er, I absolutely will not allow you to say anything about Juan'er, or I will turn against you."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhigang immediately became agitated: "What kind of talk is this? When did I ever say anything bad about Zheng Juan? She raised such a wonderful grandson like Yan Yan for me, I'm grateful to her! How could I possibly hold a grudge against her?"

Speaking of his grandson, he smiled and said, "Honey, I was on a train for two days and two nights, and when I got home I was so tired I could barely stand. But when I saw Yan Yan, I didn't feel tired at all. I was so happy! Especially when I saw Yan Yan massaging my legs, oh my, you can't imagine how I felt. It was an indescribable feeling of satisfaction!"

"Who does this child resemble? So thoughtful, so adorable, so sensible, he's completely melted my heart."

Even his most devoted daughter couldn't compare to the feeling Zhou Boyan was giving him right now.

Therefore, he feels extremely happy when he talks about Zhou Boyan.

"Look at you, it's just a leg massage, is it really that big of a deal?" Li Suhua said with a look of disdain, then boasted, "When you're not home, Yan Yan sleeps with me most of the time! When I'm cooking during the day, he helps me pick vegetables and does housework! If you were like that, I'd be so happy!"

Zhou Zhigang was so angry he gritted his teeth: "Are you deliberately trying to provoke me? Just you wait, when I retire, Yan Yan will treat me like this too."
