Chapter 95 I don't need it
Cheng Xunxun narrowed his eyes, and his gaze stayed on the designer of this artwork. It happened that the girl had been looking this way too, apparently looking for Zhou Yanqing.Cheng Xunxun kept staring at her until her eyes swept over. Cheng Xunxun suddenly took Zhou Yanqing's hand, turned his head and looked at him with a smile, and said, "I agree with this sentence very much. Otherwise, I wouldn't be Mrs. Friday, it's because of your eyes that I can stand by your side, I like your eyes."
She looked at him with smiling eyes, revealing a sense of happiness and a hint of admiration in her smile.Zhou Yanqing raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Are you praising me, or yourself?"
"Is there any difference between you and me? Husband and wife are one. If I praise you, I praise myself. If you scold me, you scold yourself. How do you distinguish?" She glanced at the female designer from the corner of her eye as she spoke. It can be considered that Zhiqu has turned his head away. As for what is thinking in his heart, Cheng Xunxun is not interested in knowing, and he doesn't need to know.What happens afterwards depends on the female designer's self-knowledge.
She let go of her hand, took a sip of the fresh orange juice on the table and put it back.
At the end of the dinner, the Zhou family won a grand slam, and all the auction items were auctioned by the Zhou family.Anyone else's asking price is tantamount to exaggerating the price. For example, the finale work is said to be an antique. It is an ink painting, which is very exquisitely framed. It is said that it is an object brought out by the old lady herself.It was also taken from other places, and it cost a lot of money.
The starting price of this painting, which the old lady has always treasured, is very high. During the bidding process, Tang Shijin also bid twice, but the price difference was not big.After the previous rounds of bidding, everyone present knew that this was the home of the Zhou family, and they were just a foil. This is to cover up the gossip on the eve of the dinner.
The Zhou family is a leading enterprise in the shopping mall, and most of the people present have a cooperative relationship with the Zhou family, and there are relatives both near and far. With the current status of the Zhou family, anyone who doesn't want to buy him for face will naturally not ask for prices.The bidding prices are all within a reasonable range, and generally there will be no malicious bidding behavior.
However, this painting was called out to tens of millions in the end. Zhou Jingyang looked back at the person who challenged him. It was a middle-aged man who met Zhou Jingyang's gaze and raised his hand as a gesture of greeting. .Zhou Jingyang had no impression of this person, but he still smiled politely, then turned his head to Dou Lanying, and asked, "Who is this person?"
Dou Lanying glanced in the direction he was looking at just now, and frowned slightly. She invited so many people this time, so naturally she couldn't know everyone. Most of the invitation list was made by people from the foundation. She just glanced at it for the last time, and when she felt that there was no problem, she signed and asked the people below to do it. There were also some specific matters that she handed over to Rong Ping to do. Cheng Xunxun's affairs somewhat affected her mood.
There were fewer visits to the foundation, and many things were reported and summarized by Rong Ping when she came back.She stared blankly for a while but didn't remember who that person was, so she asked back, "Aren't you a friend in the business field?"
Zhou Jingyang looked back again, and said with a smile: "If you are really a person in the business field, then you must not be a friend. It is a friend who asked you to spend an extra 1000 million to buy this painting?"
"No wonder others." Dou Lanying didn't think much about it, she knew how many of these people present were true friends.Even if someone sincerely wants their Zhou family to pay more, so what?Problems that can be solved by money are not problems, but problems that cannot be solved by paying money are the biggest troubles.
After the words fell, Dou Lanying was ready to take the stage to give a speech. This charity dinner was considered a successful conclusion. Except for a little mistake at the beginning, everything else was perfect.
The next day, Cheng Xunxun walked around the house holding the artwork that Zhou Yanqing bought for a million dollars, not knowing where to put this artistic thing.Zhou Yanan sat on the sofa and watched her turn around like a headless fly, ate two melon seeds, and said, "You might as well put it here first, and then move it over after you decide where to put it." It’s fine if you don’t, hold it in your hand all the time, and be careful not to drop it.”
Zhou Yanan had a crow's mouth, and before he finished speaking, he heard a bang, and he really fell.Not only did it break the artwork, but it also dented the floor.
Cheng Xunxun gave her a sideways look and said, "Look at your crow's mouth!"
Zhou Yanan threw down the remote control in his hand, and hurried over to pick up the broken artwork from the ground, just as the news of the charity banquet held by Zhou's family last night began to be broadcast on TV.The two stopped talking for a while, and turned their heads to look at the TV screen in unison.
This time, An Yu's work was not done well, and the reports on the Zhou family's charitable deeds were greatly reduced. The reports focused on the farce in front of the red carpet before the dinner, and Jiang Ruhui's suicide.The members of the Jiang family appeared on the TV screen, and Jiang Ruhui looked a little nervous, crazy, and not like a normal person.
This was the first time people in their Zhou family saw her after the accident, and it was unexpected that it was on TV, and Zhou Yansong, who was also stabbed, didn't look so pitiful.He may have been photographed without knowing it, and he looked very comfortable, not like a seriously injured person at all.
As a result, he was charged with the crime of throwing his wife, the Zhou family was branded as hypocritical, and even the charitable foundation was questioned. When it came to the matter of Jiang's building materials, the Jiang family's response to this matter was ambiguous, which aroused speculation.
Zhou Jingyang was furious in the office and scolded the manager of the public relations department. The reputation of Yufeng was seriously affected. As soon as the news came out, various departments began to conduct a thorough investigation of Yufeng, and several construction projects were forced to stop. If the project stops for one day, it is a loss.
However, the Zhou family's rebuttal was silenced by a mental appraisal report presented by the Jiang family. The backstage of Jiajia Building Materials is the Zhou family. It must be the Zhou family's idea to cut corners and reduce costs in the production of materials. Once the matter is exposed, the Jiang family is just a scapegoat pulled out by the Zhou family.
Of course, this kind of conspiracy theory was suppressed by the Zhou family's lawyer's letter.With the influence of the Zhou family and An Yu's means, it is natural to suppress these news in a timely manner, but the more severe the suppression, the more the contents of these reports are confirmed.Of course, while suppressing them, they are also constantly whitewashing public relations. It is a pity that there are many people who hate the rich in this world. I will remember what good deeds you have done, no matter how much money you donate, it should be done, and there are even voices who despise their small amount.
There are too many keyboard warriors these days, and you should be rich if you have money. This concept seems to be deeply rooted.
It should have been a joyous event when the Chinese New Year was approaching, but the Zhou family fell into an unprecedented downturn.
Mrs. Jiang stood in front of the window sill of the ward. Jiang Ruhui's condition has gradually improved. She suffered a severe blow to her head, and her brain was congested. There was no other reaction, multiple fractures in the body, still unable to move, and had to lie on the bed for a while.
At this moment, Jiang Ming was talking to her, with a hint of excitement and joy in his tone, he said: "This is called prosperity for all, and damage for all. The Zhou family has made up their minds and must help us solve this big trouble first. The Zhou family can only be good when the family is well. Ruhui, you jumped to the right building. Now Zhou Yansong can’t divorce you. Even the previous crime of intentionally hurting others has nothing to do with you. This kind of insidious trick has nothing to do with us, there is no way!"
Jiang Ruhui tugged at the corners of her lips, feeling dizzy for a while, and immediately closed her eyes.Jiang Ming was still talking, but Jiang Ruhui didn't have the heart to listen anymore.
Elder Jiang turned around, saw Jiang Ruhui's pale face, and said, "Jiang Ming, let Ruhui take a good rest, come out with me."
Afterwards, the two father and son left the ward, and Jiang Ming said, "Dad, don't worry, our Jiang family won't just be defeated like this, we will definitely come back to life."
"You did all this?"
Jiang Ming thought for a while and said, "Almost."
"What is almost?"
"Dad, don't ask too much about this. In short, I will do my best for the company's affairs. I won't let the company just be destroyed in my hands. Now is an opportunity..."
Mr. Jiang smiled and said, "What chance? You don't even know that you are being used as a gun. Don't tell me that it was your idea that Ruhui jumped off the building. Are you not afraid that she will have trouble?"
"Only the second floor..."
"It's only on the second floor?" Mr. Jiang snorted, shook his head, and said, "Then you go and give me a try, Ruhui is lucky and didn't hurt her vitals. If anything happens, I will It depends on how you explain it! Although I really hope that the Jiang family will not fall, but you still can't see the current situation? The Jiang family has entered a dead end now, and it is not easy to bring back the dead."
"The Zhou family can do it, as long as Zhou Jingyang makes a move."
"Let me ask you again now, are you responsible for these things? Including the news and public opinion, everything is your idea? You tell me, which media is so kind and willing to help you do things, you come and tell me."
Jiang Ming was silent.
Mr. Jiang shook his head with a smile, and said, "The Jiang family's fall is doomed. How much the Jiang family's fall can hurt the Zhou family depends on how you do it. Do you really think Zhou Jingyang will help you in this way? Believe it I, he will use more ruthless means to make the Jiang family no longer have any room for reversal. Of course, our Jiang family has nowhere to go, and it is bound to declare bankruptcy in the end."
"But what you are doing now is to a large extent offending the Zhou family. Anyway, I am already half-into the coffin, and I can withstand no matter how big the storm is. In a few years, I will kick my legs You don't know anything anymore, but you are different, you still have to live, your current behavior is cutting off all the back roads for yourself and your two younger sisters, do you know that!"
"No, Dad. They promised me that if the result is unsatisfactory, they will give us a way out. The Zhou family has always been ruthless in doing things. Even if we don't do this, they will not lend a helping hand to us! Even Step on us, so why should we let them have a good time? When we are good, we are one in-law, but this is the face of the downfall, saying that business is not about benevolence and righteousness. Ruhui has been married to their family for many years. There is suffering without credit Lao, what's the result?"
"Dad, you haven't seen Ruhui before. Jiashu's death was a blow to her, but Cheng Xunxun did that kind of trick again. The funniest thing is that they are obviously the victims. In the end, Master Wu and Cheng Xunxun took all the benefits that day. Ruhui had no choice but to endure it. Who would have thought that once something happened to our Jiang family, the Zhou family would use this method to frame Ruhui! What is strong and weak!" Jiang Ming sneered, and said: "That person is right, the people of the Zhou family are all wolves, tigers and leopards, who can eat people without spit out their bones. After all, I am not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet. What is bothering me now is to let them have a good taste of being bitten."
Jiang Ming eased his tone, stepped forward to hold Mr. Jiang's arm, and said in a low voice: "Dad, have you forgotten how much the Zhou family has taken advantage of us for so many years? We have always tolerated concessions in business, and we have given enough face and peace. Benefits, but now? What have we gained? Everyone thinks that we are married to the Zhou family, and we have taken advantage of all the benefits. Don't others know that our father and son are not clear enough? "
The old man frowned slightly, and Jiang Ming could see that he had been shaken a little, so he continued to push forward, "Dad, don't worry, I am very cautious this time, I have left enough for us to escape, I and that person It was an agreement signed. If the Zhou family makes a move against us, it will not do them any good. If he dares to move, he will eat the bitter fruit!"
The old man looked at Jiang Ming's firm gaze, and stopped talking, his brows were tightly frowned. After all, he was relieved, not only for business, but also for Jiang Ruhui's affairs.
After the Zhou family had done everything that should be done, they ignored the media reports and dealt with it coldly.The media is still a trivial matter now, and the problem now is the government's intervention. Therefore, recently, the men of the Zhou family have treated people from relevant departments to dinner.
The Zhou family is not without connections in the political world, but the situation in the political world is relatively complicated. Some people are friendly with you, but some people are not. Man, that is naturally shameless.
However, it is said that this person has a good relationship with Sun Ao, but Sun Ao has nothing to do with the Zhou family.No, it's not that it doesn't matter, there is still a relationship.
After Cheng Xunxun accidentally smashed the artwork, Zhou Yanqing has not noticed it until now, because he was busy. After the charity dinner, the Zhou family was busy from top to bottom.Regarding this matter, Cheng Xunxun only followed up on TV and newspapers. Zhou Yanqing didn't talk to her about it, and of course he didn't have time to talk to her. The two of them didn't talk more than ten sentences in a few days.
After finally having time to come back for dinner, Zhou Yanqing didn't want to talk about official business, and Cheng Xunxun was considerate so he didn't mention it, and only talked about some light topics.In most cases, she still heard it from Zhou Yanan, such as the case of Sun Ao.
The new year will be in two days, and various units have started to have holidays one after another. Although Yufeng Group is facing a crisis, it has still passed this year, and the holidays still have to follow the regulations.
Cheng Xunxun put the broken artwork in an extremely conspicuous place, right next to the TV, so he could see it at a glance.Cheng Xunxun went to the toilet and came out, and saw Zhou Yanqing standing in front of the artwork with arms crossed, with a serious face as if he was admiring it, and even a little fascinated.
Cheng Xunxun went over and took out two paper towels, slowly dried the water stains on his hands bit by bit, bent over and sat on the sofa, admiring him admiring a defective product.
However, after a while, he didn't respond at all. It was obvious that he didn't see the defective product at all.
"Does it look good?" Cheng Xunxun asked.
Zhou Yanqing regained consciousness and said, "It's okay."
Cheng Xunxun couldn't help but chuckled, "Where is it okay? Zhou Yanqing, I found that your artistic attainments are getting higher and higher." Her words were very joking, Zhou Yanqing naturally heard it, but he still didn't notice What's the difference with the defective products?
Turning around and glanced at her indifferently, seeing her eyes full of teasing, he couldn't help squinting his eyes, then turned back to look at the defective product, and finally got eyes, "Cheng Xunxun, what are you doing?" !"
"No reason, I just processed this artwork to make it look better. You said it was okay just now, which means I did a good job, don't you think?" Cheng Xunxun said I'm serious, and I look like I've done something terribly good.
Zhou Yanqing looked at the waste product that had been turned into two halves, and really didn't know whether to cry or laugh, but she didn't see anything unusual after watching it for so long just now, she really had a pair of eyes in vain.He hummed and laughed twice, and said, "You just smashed the 200 million things, good job."
"Well, thank you for the compliment. Only you, who have a discerning eye, can see my art."
Zhou Yanqing gave her a sideways look, "I didn't do anything, look at your stingy look."
Cheng Xunxun only squinted his eyes and smiled, but said nothing.As for Zhou Yanqing's 'didn't do anything' is a lie, Cheng Xunxun knows what the woman did, it's just a work of art, does it need to be sold?She thought it shouldn't be necessary.
After the laughter, Cheng Xunxun restrained his smile, glanced sideways at him, and asked, "What are you thinking?"
"It's nothing." When Zhou Yanqing said this, she lowered her eyes and pulled the hem of her clothes with her hands, then turned her head to meet her gaze, and said, "I know you won't want to go to Zhou's house, but You can't escape this year's New Year's Eve, you are considered a new daughter-in-law, you still have to be considerate in terms of the Zhou family's first New Year's etiquette."
"You were so engrossed in your thoughts just now, is that what you were thinking about?"
He only smiled slightly, not commenting on it.
Cheng Xunxun said: "But I don't think it's that difficult to talk about it. I'm not a person who has been bitten by a snake for ten years and is afraid of well ropes, let alone someone who will act recklessly. When did I object to what you said? ?”
"Then you can just pretend I've thought too much, and go back to Zhou's house tomorrow, do you have any objection?"
"No." Cheng Xunxun smiled at him, but didn't take the initiative to mention Sun Ao.
In the afternoon of the next day, they went back to Zhou's residence, bringing Xu's mother along.When passing by the shopping mall on the road, Cheng Xunxun stopped the car specifically, and the three of them wandered around the shopping mall for an afternoon, buying a lot of gifts, all of which were bought according to everyone's preferences, and Cheng Xunxun bought them according to Cheng Xunxun's price. sent out in the name ofZhou Yanqing said that this is the first step in being a good wife of the Zhou family, and it is very important.
Cheng Xunxun just laughed and didn't speak.
When the group arrived at Zhou's residence, it was getting dark. Zhou Yanqing originally planned to take Cheng Xunxun to live in his building, but Dou Lanying said that the building had been empty for too long, and the facilities and supplies were not complete, and Cheng Xunxun was a pregnant woman. It was definitely not possible in the past, so they were still allowed to live in the main house, and the rooms were all ready.
The old things about the New Year's Eve will not be brought up again, and Cheng Xunxun has no objection, so he moved into the main house according to Dou Lanying's arrangement, the same room.The moment Cheng Xunxun opened the door, she heard the chirping of a pair of lovesick birds. She saw the bird cage hanging in front of the window, and then looked at the pair of vivid lovesick birds in the cage, with a hint of surprise on her face.
She didn't expect that the bird was still there. She thought she should have died long ago, but she didn't expect to live so well.
"The bird is still there."
Mrs. Qing stood on one side, with a gentle smile, and said: "Yes, none of us dare to neglect Fifth Master's things. I feed this pair of birds myself, and they have always been fine."
Cheng Xunxun heard the sound and turned to look at Mrs. Qing. She lowered her eyes and showed a respectful attitude. Since that incident, her relationship with Mrs. Qing has been estranged.Cheng Xunxun is willing to believe that Mrs. Qing did not handle the saffron matter, and also believes that the marbles on the stairs have nothing to do with her, but Cheng Xunxun still does not believe that Mrs. Qing does not know.
Moreover, the success of blaming Jiang Ruhui for this incident should be due to Mrs. Qing's contribution.Cheng Xunxun also knew in his heart that Mrs. Qing couldn't be blamed for this matter, no matter how close she was with Dou Lanying, she was just a servant, and she couldn't be expected to help her against the wishes of her master.But if she understands it, she still feels a little sad in her heart. This is not the lesson learned by Mrs. Qing, and now she is more or less wary of Madam Xu.
"Thank you Mrs. Qing for your trouble." Cheng Xunxun said politely, then took out a box from his bag, walked up to her, stuffed the box into Mrs. Qing's palm, and said, "Before I Thanks to Mrs. Qing for taking care of the Zhou residence, this is my little thought, I hope Mrs. Qing will not dislike you."
Sister-in-law Qing was slightly startled, the box didn't look like a cheap item, she quickly pushed it back, and said, "It's my job to take care of you, how can I ask for your things, let's talk about last time..." This is the end of the sentence Then she stopped abruptly, raised her eyes and took a dark look at Cheng Xunxun, only to see that there was a smile between her brows and eyes, and there was nothing unusual, as if she didn't take what happened last time to her heart.
But she still stuffed the box back into her palm, shook her head, and said, "I can't have it."
"Take it, it's not a very expensive thing." Cheng Xunxun stuffed the box into her pocket, and immediately let go of her hand, no longer entangled with her, perhaps because she was afraid that Mrs. Qing would stuff the things back , Cheng Xunxun said: "Sister-in-law Qing, I am a pregnant woman. I can't bear to shirk and shirk like this. Recently, my body is getting heavier and heavier. If you can, please don't be polite to me. I must give this thing to you." your."
Aunt Qing opened her mouth, put one hand on her pocket, thought for a while, then sighed secretly, nodded with a smile, and said, "Okay, I'll just accept it."
Cheng Xunxun smiled and went to the window to play with the birds, Zhou Yanqing put away his things and went to the study.
On New Year's Eve, all members of the Zhou family came back, and the main house was extremely lively from the morning. Zhou Yanqing accompanied Cheng Xunxun to deliver all the prepared gifts one by one.
Rong Ping said: "Speaking of it, Xun Xun can be regarded as a new daughter-in-law."
Dou Lanying seemed to have thought of something, raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Qing, then Mrs. Qing left for a while, and when she came back, she had two extra red envelopes in her hand.Dou Lanying handed the red envelope to Cheng Xunxun and said, "The situation between you and the fifth child is special, and there is no ceremony, but the red envelope is still indispensable. I remembered what Rong Ping said."
Cheng Xunxun did not take it immediately, but turned his head to look at Zhou Yanqing, who nodded his head lightly. When Cheng Xunxun was about to take it, he suddenly withdrew his hand, stood up straight and said to Mrs. Qing: "Sister-in-law Qing, can I trouble you to make two cups of tea?"
Sister-in-law Qing was stunned for a moment, and then she came to her senses a moment later, with a smile on her face, she nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you are waiting while I make tea." Pick the tea that Dou Lanying likes.
Today, the whole family is rare, and when Sister-in-law Qing brought two cups of tea, everyone stepped back and stood on both sides, watching Cheng Xunxun offer tea to the two elders of the Zhou family, and then took the red envelope logically, and called parents.
An Yu saw all these in his eyes, and the smile on his face remained unchanged, but he still felt a little sour when he thought about it.After sitting with her for a while, she went to the courtyard alone.
The family looks harmonious on the surface, with smiles on everyone's faces, but everyone has something on their minds.Zhou Yansong had already been discharged from the hospital, and he didn't show up until five o'clock in the evening. He looked quite haggard, and he was supported while walking, with a dejected look on his face.As soon as he appeared, the originally warm atmosphere cooled down a little. After greeting him one by one, they immediately fell into a stalemate.
No matter how well this play is performed, it lacks a sense of warmth. The Zhou family is too short of children now, and the youngest is already in his teens. Originally, he planned to let Xiaoqian come over, but due to Cheng Xunxun Just let it go.Without children, there will be less excitement. Dou Lanying has always been in a bad mood, and she ate very little for this meal. Zhou Jingyang is relatively better, with a smile on her face all the time, and she is willing to have a few moments with them It's a joke.
The New Year's Eve dinner was barely over, and it became more lively when the red envelopes were distributed. After the meal, Dou Lanying only sat in the hall for a while before going back to her room early to rest.
This year has been very quiet, with no entertainment, and even very little laughter. There is an oppressive atmosphere in the main house that can't be dispelled. After returning to the room, Dou Lanying is a little better. No one wants to stay in the main house for a long time, but Since Zhou Jingyang was still sitting in the hall, it was inconvenient for anyone to leave early.And the Zhou family has rules, everyone has to spend New Year's Eve at home, and no one is allowed to go out.
Therefore, I don't want to suffer in the hall, so I can only go back to the room to watch the Spring Festival Gala. After much deliberation, I might as well get together to play mahjong and have some fun.
Unknowingly, there were only a few people left in the hall. An Yu secretly looked at Zhou Jingyang who had been sitting motionless on the couch, thought about it for a while, then got up and went to the chess and card room to watch them play cards. Fortunately, the chess and card room has a large space. , The people who hide here can make two tables of mahjong.
Zhou Yanqing was also in the chess and card room, leaving Cheng Xunxun outside and accompanied by Zhou Yanan.
There are only a few juniors left in this meeting. Zhou Jiayu ordered the servant to help Zhou Yansong back to the room, while he stayed in the hall. He was not interested in them playing cards, so he just sat here watching TV and eating. Something, so many years of rules, naturally no one will call to ask him to go out on New Year's Eve.
Zhou Jingyang glanced in Zhou Jiayu's direction while drinking tea. Zhou Yanan was actually a little nervous. Zhou Jingyang's intentions were already obvious. She also knew that she should walk away at this time, but she held on tightly. Cheng Xunxun refused to let go of his hand, nor did he want to walk away.Rong Ping had come over to remind her several times, but she just pretended not to hear and pretended to be very interested in the Spring Festival Gala.
He chatted with Cheng Xunxun and then with Zhou Jiayu.
However, how could Zhou Jingyang change his plan because of them? He stood up and said to Cheng Xunxun, "Xunxun, accompany me for a walk."
Zhou Yanan couldn't help pinching Cheng Xunxun's hand when he heard it, his nails almost embedded in her flesh, Cheng Xunxun couldn't help hissing, took a deep look at Zhou Yanan, and secretly opened her hand, and then He raised his head and smiled at Zhou Jingyang, nodded, and said, "Okay."
Zhou Yanan wanted to say something, but was held firmly by Cheng Xunxun, and Zhou Jingyang had already walked away, so she shook her head at her and whispered, "It's okay."
Cheng Xunxun took a deep breath and followed Zhou Jingyang out. The two walked in the night one after the other. Cheng Xunxun didn't speak, and Zhou Jingyang put his hands behind his back. After a moment of silence, he asked, "I heard you It has something to do with Sun Ao's son Sun Jie, doesn't it?"
"It's a relationship, but it's not a good relationship."
Zhou Jingyang stopped in his tracks, turned around and stood facing her, and said, "I think you should know a thing or two about the current situation of the Zhou family. I know that you are friends, so you don't have to hide it from me. People have to talk to each other." A few friends. I heard that Sun Jie wants to start a business now, and even registered the company.”
"Really? I don't know."
"This is not right. Since you are a friend, you should contact him more often. He needs support when he starts his business. As a friend, you should give him encouragement. If there is anything you can do to help him, it is not easy for young people to start their own businesses. , you need someone around you to support and encourage you.”
Cheng Xunxun pursed his lips, "What you said is, I will ask him when I have time."
After a moment of silence, Zhou Jingyang set his eyes on Cheng Xunxun's stomach and asked, "How old is this child?"
"It's been nine months and she's about to give birth."
He raised his eyebrows slightly, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"will not."
Zhou Jingyang just smiled and didn't say much.
Cheng Xunxun was silent for a while, and after thinking about it, he turned his head to look at Zhou Jingyang, and then said, "I would like to contact my friends, but can you promise me a request."
……
Cheng Xunxun went back first, and as soon as he entered the hall, Zhou Yanan stood up, came over quickly, and said worriedly, "What did grandpa tell you?"
"What are you worried about?" Cheng Xunxun looked at her flustered look, and couldn't help but sneered, thinking that there must be nothing good in her head.
Zhou Yanan glanced around, leaned closer to her ear, and whispered, "They said Sun Jie likes you."
"and then?"
'Don't be a wise consultant. "
Cheng Xunxun shook his head, gave her a push with his belly, and said, "I have a belly, who wants it?"
"No, let me tell you, Sun Jie is such a mess, he would have a stomach, what should you do!" Zhou Yanan lowered his voice, his face gloomy.
"No, even if the Zhou family is shameless, the Sun family is still shameless."
"Then what if..."
"It's nothing in case." Cheng Xunxun frowned slightly.
"Okay, I won't say it."
Cheng Xunxun sat for a while, then returned to the room on the grounds that he was tired.
Zhou Yanqing came back to the room near twelve o'clock, and Cheng Xunxun was still awake. This place is far away from the urban area, and there are no neighbors around, not even residential areas. Because it was supposed to be the time when the firecrackers were going off, the meeting was unusually quiet. .
When Zhou Yanqing came out of the shower, Cheng Xunxun stood there teasing the little bird. He smoothed his hair and said, "You have something to say to me?"
"Give me Sun Jie's contact information." She still teased Xiaoniao, without the slightest emotion in her tone, speaking very calmly.
"No." he replied.
"Actually, if you don't give it to me, some people will give it to me, but I still want you to tell me." She put down the stick in her hand and turned to face him with a faint smile on her face. Said: "I am friends with Sun Jie."
Zhou Yanqing raised her eyes and glanced at her, with a sneering smile on her lips, and said, "Do you still feel that you are infinitely charming with this belly?"
"In another month, the stomach will be gone."
"Do you know what you are talking about?"
Cheng Xunxun smiled and said, "I am for you."
"I do not need."
"I know you need it. If you don't need it, you won't leave me in the living room and give my father a chance to chat with me. You know very well that even if you don't need it, someone will still ask me to do it. Besides, I may not Isn’t it successful? Sun Jie is Sun Jie, Sun Ao is Sun Ao, Sun Ao may not listen to Sun Jie.”
Zhou Yanqing didn't answer her, but only took a deep look at her, lifted the quilt, and said, "Go to rest early, you've been carrying a big belly all day, aren't you tired? Your feet are swollen like that, and you're still tossing about." I'm not tired, I'm tired just looking at it."
After finishing speaking, he lay down and fell asleep. Cheng Xunxun wanted to say something, but he turned off the light, obviously refusing to communicate with her.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Dou Lanying went to the temple early in the morning, and did not bring Mrs. Qing with her.Cheng Xunxun got up early and was hungry early, she didn't wake up Zhou Yanqing, and went downstairs by herself, ready to go to the kitchen to find something to fill her stomach first.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she approached the kitchen, she saw two people approaching very close. She was startled, took a step back, and immediately hid by the door.The people inside were Aunt Qing and Zhou Jingyang, who were originally in a master-servant relationship, but their posture clearly surpassed this relationship.
(End of this chapter)
Cheng Xunxun narrowed his eyes, and his gaze stayed on the designer of this artwork. It happened that the girl had been looking this way too, apparently looking for Zhou Yanqing.Cheng Xunxun kept staring at her until her eyes swept over. Cheng Xunxun suddenly took Zhou Yanqing's hand, turned his head and looked at him with a smile, and said, "I agree with this sentence very much. Otherwise, I wouldn't be Mrs. Friday, it's because of your eyes that I can stand by your side, I like your eyes."
She looked at him with smiling eyes, revealing a sense of happiness and a hint of admiration in her smile.Zhou Yanqing raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Are you praising me, or yourself?"
"Is there any difference between you and me? Husband and wife are one. If I praise you, I praise myself. If you scold me, you scold yourself. How do you distinguish?" She glanced at the female designer from the corner of her eye as she spoke. It can be considered that Zhiqu has turned his head away. As for what is thinking in his heart, Cheng Xunxun is not interested in knowing, and he doesn't need to know.What happens afterwards depends on the female designer's self-knowledge.
She let go of her hand, took a sip of the fresh orange juice on the table and put it back.
At the end of the dinner, the Zhou family won a grand slam, and all the auction items were auctioned by the Zhou family.Anyone else's asking price is tantamount to exaggerating the price. For example, the finale work is said to be an antique. It is an ink painting, which is very exquisitely framed. It is said that it is an object brought out by the old lady herself.It was also taken from other places, and it cost a lot of money.
The starting price of this painting, which the old lady has always treasured, is very high. During the bidding process, Tang Shijin also bid twice, but the price difference was not big.After the previous rounds of bidding, everyone present knew that this was the home of the Zhou family, and they were just a foil. This is to cover up the gossip on the eve of the dinner.
The Zhou family is a leading enterprise in the shopping mall, and most of the people present have a cooperative relationship with the Zhou family, and there are relatives both near and far. With the current status of the Zhou family, anyone who doesn't want to buy him for face will naturally not ask for prices.The bidding prices are all within a reasonable range, and generally there will be no malicious bidding behavior.
However, this painting was called out to tens of millions in the end. Zhou Jingyang looked back at the person who challenged him. It was a middle-aged man who met Zhou Jingyang's gaze and raised his hand as a gesture of greeting. .Zhou Jingyang had no impression of this person, but he still smiled politely, then turned his head to Dou Lanying, and asked, "Who is this person?"
Dou Lanying glanced in the direction he was looking at just now, and frowned slightly. She invited so many people this time, so naturally she couldn't know everyone. Most of the invitation list was made by people from the foundation. She just glanced at it for the last time, and when she felt that there was no problem, she signed and asked the people below to do it. There were also some specific matters that she handed over to Rong Ping to do. Cheng Xunxun's affairs somewhat affected her mood.
There were fewer visits to the foundation, and many things were reported and summarized by Rong Ping when she came back.She stared blankly for a while but didn't remember who that person was, so she asked back, "Aren't you a friend in the business field?"
Zhou Jingyang looked back again, and said with a smile: "If you are really a person in the business field, then you must not be a friend. It is a friend who asked you to spend an extra 1000 million to buy this painting?"
"No wonder others." Dou Lanying didn't think much about it, she knew how many of these people present were true friends.Even if someone sincerely wants their Zhou family to pay more, so what?Problems that can be solved by money are not problems, but problems that cannot be solved by paying money are the biggest troubles.
After the words fell, Dou Lanying was ready to take the stage to give a speech. This charity dinner was considered a successful conclusion. Except for a little mistake at the beginning, everything else was perfect.
The next day, Cheng Xunxun walked around the house holding the artwork that Zhou Yanqing bought for a million dollars, not knowing where to put this artistic thing.Zhou Yanan sat on the sofa and watched her turn around like a headless fly, ate two melon seeds, and said, "You might as well put it here first, and then move it over after you decide where to put it." It’s fine if you don’t, hold it in your hand all the time, and be careful not to drop it.”
Zhou Yanan had a crow's mouth, and before he finished speaking, he heard a bang, and he really fell.Not only did it break the artwork, but it also dented the floor.
Cheng Xunxun gave her a sideways look and said, "Look at your crow's mouth!"
Zhou Yanan threw down the remote control in his hand, and hurried over to pick up the broken artwork from the ground, just as the news of the charity banquet held by Zhou's family last night began to be broadcast on TV.The two stopped talking for a while, and turned their heads to look at the TV screen in unison.
This time, An Yu's work was not done well, and the reports on the Zhou family's charitable deeds were greatly reduced. The reports focused on the farce in front of the red carpet before the dinner, and Jiang Ruhui's suicide.The members of the Jiang family appeared on the TV screen, and Jiang Ruhui looked a little nervous, crazy, and not like a normal person.
This was the first time people in their Zhou family saw her after the accident, and it was unexpected that it was on TV, and Zhou Yansong, who was also stabbed, didn't look so pitiful.He may have been photographed without knowing it, and he looked very comfortable, not like a seriously injured person at all.
As a result, he was charged with the crime of throwing his wife, the Zhou family was branded as hypocritical, and even the charitable foundation was questioned. When it came to the matter of Jiang's building materials, the Jiang family's response to this matter was ambiguous, which aroused speculation.
Zhou Jingyang was furious in the office and scolded the manager of the public relations department. The reputation of Yufeng was seriously affected. As soon as the news came out, various departments began to conduct a thorough investigation of Yufeng, and several construction projects were forced to stop. If the project stops for one day, it is a loss.
However, the Zhou family's rebuttal was silenced by a mental appraisal report presented by the Jiang family. The backstage of Jiajia Building Materials is the Zhou family. It must be the Zhou family's idea to cut corners and reduce costs in the production of materials. Once the matter is exposed, the Jiang family is just a scapegoat pulled out by the Zhou family.
Of course, this kind of conspiracy theory was suppressed by the Zhou family's lawyer's letter.With the influence of the Zhou family and An Yu's means, it is natural to suppress these news in a timely manner, but the more severe the suppression, the more the contents of these reports are confirmed.Of course, while suppressing them, they are also constantly whitewashing public relations. It is a pity that there are many people who hate the rich in this world. I will remember what good deeds you have done, no matter how much money you donate, it should be done, and there are even voices who despise their small amount.
There are too many keyboard warriors these days, and you should be rich if you have money. This concept seems to be deeply rooted.
It should have been a joyous event when the Chinese New Year was approaching, but the Zhou family fell into an unprecedented downturn.
Mrs. Jiang stood in front of the window sill of the ward. Jiang Ruhui's condition has gradually improved. She suffered a severe blow to her head, and her brain was congested. There was no other reaction, multiple fractures in the body, still unable to move, and had to lie on the bed for a while.
At this moment, Jiang Ming was talking to her, with a hint of excitement and joy in his tone, he said: "This is called prosperity for all, and damage for all. The Zhou family has made up their minds and must help us solve this big trouble first. The Zhou family can only be good when the family is well. Ruhui, you jumped to the right building. Now Zhou Yansong can’t divorce you. Even the previous crime of intentionally hurting others has nothing to do with you. This kind of insidious trick has nothing to do with us, there is no way!"
Jiang Ruhui tugged at the corners of her lips, feeling dizzy for a while, and immediately closed her eyes.Jiang Ming was still talking, but Jiang Ruhui didn't have the heart to listen anymore.
Elder Jiang turned around, saw Jiang Ruhui's pale face, and said, "Jiang Ming, let Ruhui take a good rest, come out with me."
Afterwards, the two father and son left the ward, and Jiang Ming said, "Dad, don't worry, our Jiang family won't just be defeated like this, we will definitely come back to life."
"You did all this?"
Jiang Ming thought for a while and said, "Almost."
"What is almost?"
"Dad, don't ask too much about this. In short, I will do my best for the company's affairs. I won't let the company just be destroyed in my hands. Now is an opportunity..."
Mr. Jiang smiled and said, "What chance? You don't even know that you are being used as a gun. Don't tell me that it was your idea that Ruhui jumped off the building. Are you not afraid that she will have trouble?"
"Only the second floor..."
"It's only on the second floor?" Mr. Jiang snorted, shook his head, and said, "Then you go and give me a try, Ruhui is lucky and didn't hurt her vitals. If anything happens, I will It depends on how you explain it! Although I really hope that the Jiang family will not fall, but you still can't see the current situation? The Jiang family has entered a dead end now, and it is not easy to bring back the dead."
"The Zhou family can do it, as long as Zhou Jingyang makes a move."
"Let me ask you again now, are you responsible for these things? Including the news and public opinion, everything is your idea? You tell me, which media is so kind and willing to help you do things, you come and tell me."
Jiang Ming was silent.
Mr. Jiang shook his head with a smile, and said, "The Jiang family's fall is doomed. How much the Jiang family's fall can hurt the Zhou family depends on how you do it. Do you really think Zhou Jingyang will help you in this way? Believe it I, he will use more ruthless means to make the Jiang family no longer have any room for reversal. Of course, our Jiang family has nowhere to go, and it is bound to declare bankruptcy in the end."
"But what you are doing now is to a large extent offending the Zhou family. Anyway, I am already half-into the coffin, and I can withstand no matter how big the storm is. In a few years, I will kick my legs You don't know anything anymore, but you are different, you still have to live, your current behavior is cutting off all the back roads for yourself and your two younger sisters, do you know that!"
"No, Dad. They promised me that if the result is unsatisfactory, they will give us a way out. The Zhou family has always been ruthless in doing things. Even if we don't do this, they will not lend a helping hand to us! Even Step on us, so why should we let them have a good time? When we are good, we are one in-law, but this is the face of the downfall, saying that business is not about benevolence and righteousness. Ruhui has been married to their family for many years. There is suffering without credit Lao, what's the result?"
"Dad, you haven't seen Ruhui before. Jiashu's death was a blow to her, but Cheng Xunxun did that kind of trick again. The funniest thing is that they are obviously the victims. In the end, Master Wu and Cheng Xunxun took all the benefits that day. Ruhui had no choice but to endure it. Who would have thought that once something happened to our Jiang family, the Zhou family would use this method to frame Ruhui! What is strong and weak!" Jiang Ming sneered, and said: "That person is right, the people of the Zhou family are all wolves, tigers and leopards, who can eat people without spit out their bones. After all, I am not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet. What is bothering me now is to let them have a good taste of being bitten."
Jiang Ming eased his tone, stepped forward to hold Mr. Jiang's arm, and said in a low voice: "Dad, have you forgotten how much the Zhou family has taken advantage of us for so many years? We have always tolerated concessions in business, and we have given enough face and peace. Benefits, but now? What have we gained? Everyone thinks that we are married to the Zhou family, and we have taken advantage of all the benefits. Don't others know that our father and son are not clear enough? "
The old man frowned slightly, and Jiang Ming could see that he had been shaken a little, so he continued to push forward, "Dad, don't worry, I am very cautious this time, I have left enough for us to escape, I and that person It was an agreement signed. If the Zhou family makes a move against us, it will not do them any good. If he dares to move, he will eat the bitter fruit!"
The old man looked at Jiang Ming's firm gaze, and stopped talking, his brows were tightly frowned. After all, he was relieved, not only for business, but also for Jiang Ruhui's affairs.
After the Zhou family had done everything that should be done, they ignored the media reports and dealt with it coldly.The media is still a trivial matter now, and the problem now is the government's intervention. Therefore, recently, the men of the Zhou family have treated people from relevant departments to dinner.
The Zhou family is not without connections in the political world, but the situation in the political world is relatively complicated. Some people are friendly with you, but some people are not. Man, that is naturally shameless.
However, it is said that this person has a good relationship with Sun Ao, but Sun Ao has nothing to do with the Zhou family.No, it's not that it doesn't matter, there is still a relationship.
After Cheng Xunxun accidentally smashed the artwork, Zhou Yanqing has not noticed it until now, because he was busy. After the charity dinner, the Zhou family was busy from top to bottom.Regarding this matter, Cheng Xunxun only followed up on TV and newspapers. Zhou Yanqing didn't talk to her about it, and of course he didn't have time to talk to her. The two of them didn't talk more than ten sentences in a few days.
After finally having time to come back for dinner, Zhou Yanqing didn't want to talk about official business, and Cheng Xunxun was considerate so he didn't mention it, and only talked about some light topics.In most cases, she still heard it from Zhou Yanan, such as the case of Sun Ao.
The new year will be in two days, and various units have started to have holidays one after another. Although Yufeng Group is facing a crisis, it has still passed this year, and the holidays still have to follow the regulations.
Cheng Xunxun put the broken artwork in an extremely conspicuous place, right next to the TV, so he could see it at a glance.Cheng Xunxun went to the toilet and came out, and saw Zhou Yanqing standing in front of the artwork with arms crossed, with a serious face as if he was admiring it, and even a little fascinated.
Cheng Xunxun went over and took out two paper towels, slowly dried the water stains on his hands bit by bit, bent over and sat on the sofa, admiring him admiring a defective product.
However, after a while, he didn't respond at all. It was obvious that he didn't see the defective product at all.
"Does it look good?" Cheng Xunxun asked.
Zhou Yanqing regained consciousness and said, "It's okay."
Cheng Xunxun couldn't help but chuckled, "Where is it okay? Zhou Yanqing, I found that your artistic attainments are getting higher and higher." Her words were very joking, Zhou Yanqing naturally heard it, but he still didn't notice What's the difference with the defective products?
Turning around and glanced at her indifferently, seeing her eyes full of teasing, he couldn't help squinting his eyes, then turned back to look at the defective product, and finally got eyes, "Cheng Xunxun, what are you doing?" !"
"No reason, I just processed this artwork to make it look better. You said it was okay just now, which means I did a good job, don't you think?" Cheng Xunxun said I'm serious, and I look like I've done something terribly good.
Zhou Yanqing looked at the waste product that had been turned into two halves, and really didn't know whether to cry or laugh, but she didn't see anything unusual after watching it for so long just now, she really had a pair of eyes in vain.He hummed and laughed twice, and said, "You just smashed the 200 million things, good job."
"Well, thank you for the compliment. Only you, who have a discerning eye, can see my art."
Zhou Yanqing gave her a sideways look, "I didn't do anything, look at your stingy look."
Cheng Xunxun only squinted his eyes and smiled, but said nothing.As for Zhou Yanqing's 'didn't do anything' is a lie, Cheng Xunxun knows what the woman did, it's just a work of art, does it need to be sold?She thought it shouldn't be necessary.
After the laughter, Cheng Xunxun restrained his smile, glanced sideways at him, and asked, "What are you thinking?"
"It's nothing." When Zhou Yanqing said this, she lowered her eyes and pulled the hem of her clothes with her hands, then turned her head to meet her gaze, and said, "I know you won't want to go to Zhou's house, but You can't escape this year's New Year's Eve, you are considered a new daughter-in-law, you still have to be considerate in terms of the Zhou family's first New Year's etiquette."
"You were so engrossed in your thoughts just now, is that what you were thinking about?"
He only smiled slightly, not commenting on it.
Cheng Xunxun said: "But I don't think it's that difficult to talk about it. I'm not a person who has been bitten by a snake for ten years and is afraid of well ropes, let alone someone who will act recklessly. When did I object to what you said? ?”
"Then you can just pretend I've thought too much, and go back to Zhou's house tomorrow, do you have any objection?"
"No." Cheng Xunxun smiled at him, but didn't take the initiative to mention Sun Ao.
In the afternoon of the next day, they went back to Zhou's residence, bringing Xu's mother along.When passing by the shopping mall on the road, Cheng Xunxun stopped the car specifically, and the three of them wandered around the shopping mall for an afternoon, buying a lot of gifts, all of which were bought according to everyone's preferences, and Cheng Xunxun bought them according to Cheng Xunxun's price. sent out in the name ofZhou Yanqing said that this is the first step in being a good wife of the Zhou family, and it is very important.
Cheng Xunxun just laughed and didn't speak.
When the group arrived at Zhou's residence, it was getting dark. Zhou Yanqing originally planned to take Cheng Xunxun to live in his building, but Dou Lanying said that the building had been empty for too long, and the facilities and supplies were not complete, and Cheng Xunxun was a pregnant woman. It was definitely not possible in the past, so they were still allowed to live in the main house, and the rooms were all ready.
The old things about the New Year's Eve will not be brought up again, and Cheng Xunxun has no objection, so he moved into the main house according to Dou Lanying's arrangement, the same room.The moment Cheng Xunxun opened the door, she heard the chirping of a pair of lovesick birds. She saw the bird cage hanging in front of the window, and then looked at the pair of vivid lovesick birds in the cage, with a hint of surprise on her face.
She didn't expect that the bird was still there. She thought she should have died long ago, but she didn't expect to live so well.
"The bird is still there."
Mrs. Qing stood on one side, with a gentle smile, and said: "Yes, none of us dare to neglect Fifth Master's things. I feed this pair of birds myself, and they have always been fine."
Cheng Xunxun heard the sound and turned to look at Mrs. Qing. She lowered her eyes and showed a respectful attitude. Since that incident, her relationship with Mrs. Qing has been estranged.Cheng Xunxun is willing to believe that Mrs. Qing did not handle the saffron matter, and also believes that the marbles on the stairs have nothing to do with her, but Cheng Xunxun still does not believe that Mrs. Qing does not know.
Moreover, the success of blaming Jiang Ruhui for this incident should be due to Mrs. Qing's contribution.Cheng Xunxun also knew in his heart that Mrs. Qing couldn't be blamed for this matter, no matter how close she was with Dou Lanying, she was just a servant, and she couldn't be expected to help her against the wishes of her master.But if she understands it, she still feels a little sad in her heart. This is not the lesson learned by Mrs. Qing, and now she is more or less wary of Madam Xu.
"Thank you Mrs. Qing for your trouble." Cheng Xunxun said politely, then took out a box from his bag, walked up to her, stuffed the box into Mrs. Qing's palm, and said, "Before I Thanks to Mrs. Qing for taking care of the Zhou residence, this is my little thought, I hope Mrs. Qing will not dislike you."
Sister-in-law Qing was slightly startled, the box didn't look like a cheap item, she quickly pushed it back, and said, "It's my job to take care of you, how can I ask for your things, let's talk about last time..." This is the end of the sentence Then she stopped abruptly, raised her eyes and took a dark look at Cheng Xunxun, only to see that there was a smile between her brows and eyes, and there was nothing unusual, as if she didn't take what happened last time to her heart.
But she still stuffed the box back into her palm, shook her head, and said, "I can't have it."
"Take it, it's not a very expensive thing." Cheng Xunxun stuffed the box into her pocket, and immediately let go of her hand, no longer entangled with her, perhaps because she was afraid that Mrs. Qing would stuff the things back , Cheng Xunxun said: "Sister-in-law Qing, I am a pregnant woman. I can't bear to shirk and shirk like this. Recently, my body is getting heavier and heavier. If you can, please don't be polite to me. I must give this thing to you." your."
Aunt Qing opened her mouth, put one hand on her pocket, thought for a while, then sighed secretly, nodded with a smile, and said, "Okay, I'll just accept it."
Cheng Xunxun smiled and went to the window to play with the birds, Zhou Yanqing put away his things and went to the study.
On New Year's Eve, all members of the Zhou family came back, and the main house was extremely lively from the morning. Zhou Yanqing accompanied Cheng Xunxun to deliver all the prepared gifts one by one.
Rong Ping said: "Speaking of it, Xun Xun can be regarded as a new daughter-in-law."
Dou Lanying seemed to have thought of something, raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Qing, then Mrs. Qing left for a while, and when she came back, she had two extra red envelopes in her hand.Dou Lanying handed the red envelope to Cheng Xunxun and said, "The situation between you and the fifth child is special, and there is no ceremony, but the red envelope is still indispensable. I remembered what Rong Ping said."
Cheng Xunxun did not take it immediately, but turned his head to look at Zhou Yanqing, who nodded his head lightly. When Cheng Xunxun was about to take it, he suddenly withdrew his hand, stood up straight and said to Mrs. Qing: "Sister-in-law Qing, can I trouble you to make two cups of tea?"
Sister-in-law Qing was stunned for a moment, and then she came to her senses a moment later, with a smile on her face, she nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you are waiting while I make tea." Pick the tea that Dou Lanying likes.
Today, the whole family is rare, and when Sister-in-law Qing brought two cups of tea, everyone stepped back and stood on both sides, watching Cheng Xunxun offer tea to the two elders of the Zhou family, and then took the red envelope logically, and called parents.
An Yu saw all these in his eyes, and the smile on his face remained unchanged, but he still felt a little sour when he thought about it.After sitting with her for a while, she went to the courtyard alone.
The family looks harmonious on the surface, with smiles on everyone's faces, but everyone has something on their minds.Zhou Yansong had already been discharged from the hospital, and he didn't show up until five o'clock in the evening. He looked quite haggard, and he was supported while walking, with a dejected look on his face.As soon as he appeared, the originally warm atmosphere cooled down a little. After greeting him one by one, they immediately fell into a stalemate.
No matter how well this play is performed, it lacks a sense of warmth. The Zhou family is too short of children now, and the youngest is already in his teens. Originally, he planned to let Xiaoqian come over, but due to Cheng Xunxun Just let it go.Without children, there will be less excitement. Dou Lanying has always been in a bad mood, and she ate very little for this meal. Zhou Jingyang is relatively better, with a smile on her face all the time, and she is willing to have a few moments with them It's a joke.
The New Year's Eve dinner was barely over, and it became more lively when the red envelopes were distributed. After the meal, Dou Lanying only sat in the hall for a while before going back to her room early to rest.
This year has been very quiet, with no entertainment, and even very little laughter. There is an oppressive atmosphere in the main house that can't be dispelled. After returning to the room, Dou Lanying is a little better. No one wants to stay in the main house for a long time, but Since Zhou Jingyang was still sitting in the hall, it was inconvenient for anyone to leave early.And the Zhou family has rules, everyone has to spend New Year's Eve at home, and no one is allowed to go out.
Therefore, I don't want to suffer in the hall, so I can only go back to the room to watch the Spring Festival Gala. After much deliberation, I might as well get together to play mahjong and have some fun.
Unknowingly, there were only a few people left in the hall. An Yu secretly looked at Zhou Jingyang who had been sitting motionless on the couch, thought about it for a while, then got up and went to the chess and card room to watch them play cards. Fortunately, the chess and card room has a large space. , The people who hide here can make two tables of mahjong.
Zhou Yanqing was also in the chess and card room, leaving Cheng Xunxun outside and accompanied by Zhou Yanan.
There are only a few juniors left in this meeting. Zhou Jiayu ordered the servant to help Zhou Yansong back to the room, while he stayed in the hall. He was not interested in them playing cards, so he just sat here watching TV and eating. Something, so many years of rules, naturally no one will call to ask him to go out on New Year's Eve.
Zhou Jingyang glanced in Zhou Jiayu's direction while drinking tea. Zhou Yanan was actually a little nervous. Zhou Jingyang's intentions were already obvious. She also knew that she should walk away at this time, but she held on tightly. Cheng Xunxun refused to let go of his hand, nor did he want to walk away.Rong Ping had come over to remind her several times, but she just pretended not to hear and pretended to be very interested in the Spring Festival Gala.
He chatted with Cheng Xunxun and then with Zhou Jiayu.
However, how could Zhou Jingyang change his plan because of them? He stood up and said to Cheng Xunxun, "Xunxun, accompany me for a walk."
Zhou Yanan couldn't help pinching Cheng Xunxun's hand when he heard it, his nails almost embedded in her flesh, Cheng Xunxun couldn't help hissing, took a deep look at Zhou Yanan, and secretly opened her hand, and then He raised his head and smiled at Zhou Jingyang, nodded, and said, "Okay."
Zhou Yanan wanted to say something, but was held firmly by Cheng Xunxun, and Zhou Jingyang had already walked away, so she shook her head at her and whispered, "It's okay."
Cheng Xunxun took a deep breath and followed Zhou Jingyang out. The two walked in the night one after the other. Cheng Xunxun didn't speak, and Zhou Jingyang put his hands behind his back. After a moment of silence, he asked, "I heard you It has something to do with Sun Ao's son Sun Jie, doesn't it?"
"It's a relationship, but it's not a good relationship."
Zhou Jingyang stopped in his tracks, turned around and stood facing her, and said, "I think you should know a thing or two about the current situation of the Zhou family. I know that you are friends, so you don't have to hide it from me. People have to talk to each other." A few friends. I heard that Sun Jie wants to start a business now, and even registered the company.”
"Really? I don't know."
"This is not right. Since you are a friend, you should contact him more often. He needs support when he starts his business. As a friend, you should give him encouragement. If there is anything you can do to help him, it is not easy for young people to start their own businesses. , you need someone around you to support and encourage you.”
Cheng Xunxun pursed his lips, "What you said is, I will ask him when I have time."
After a moment of silence, Zhou Jingyang set his eyes on Cheng Xunxun's stomach and asked, "How old is this child?"
"It's been nine months and she's about to give birth."
He raised his eyebrows slightly, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"will not."
Zhou Jingyang just smiled and didn't say much.
Cheng Xunxun was silent for a while, and after thinking about it, he turned his head to look at Zhou Jingyang, and then said, "I would like to contact my friends, but can you promise me a request."
……
Cheng Xunxun went back first, and as soon as he entered the hall, Zhou Yanan stood up, came over quickly, and said worriedly, "What did grandpa tell you?"
"What are you worried about?" Cheng Xunxun looked at her flustered look, and couldn't help but sneered, thinking that there must be nothing good in her head.
Zhou Yanan glanced around, leaned closer to her ear, and whispered, "They said Sun Jie likes you."
"and then?"
'Don't be a wise consultant. "
Cheng Xunxun shook his head, gave her a push with his belly, and said, "I have a belly, who wants it?"
"No, let me tell you, Sun Jie is such a mess, he would have a stomach, what should you do!" Zhou Yanan lowered his voice, his face gloomy.
"No, even if the Zhou family is shameless, the Sun family is still shameless."
"Then what if..."
"It's nothing in case." Cheng Xunxun frowned slightly.
"Okay, I won't say it."
Cheng Xunxun sat for a while, then returned to the room on the grounds that he was tired.
Zhou Yanqing came back to the room near twelve o'clock, and Cheng Xunxun was still awake. This place is far away from the urban area, and there are no neighbors around, not even residential areas. Because it was supposed to be the time when the firecrackers were going off, the meeting was unusually quiet. .
When Zhou Yanqing came out of the shower, Cheng Xunxun stood there teasing the little bird. He smoothed his hair and said, "You have something to say to me?"
"Give me Sun Jie's contact information." She still teased Xiaoniao, without the slightest emotion in her tone, speaking very calmly.
"No." he replied.
"Actually, if you don't give it to me, some people will give it to me, but I still want you to tell me." She put down the stick in her hand and turned to face him with a faint smile on her face. Said: "I am friends with Sun Jie."
Zhou Yanqing raised her eyes and glanced at her, with a sneering smile on her lips, and said, "Do you still feel that you are infinitely charming with this belly?"
"In another month, the stomach will be gone."
"Do you know what you are talking about?"
Cheng Xunxun smiled and said, "I am for you."
