After Feng Yue entered the small villa and took a look around, she began to allocate the rooms in high spirits.

This small villa has a total of five rooms, three upstairs and two downstairs. One of the downstairs is used as a study, so there are four bedrooms in total.

When Zhou Cong heard Feng Yue's assignment, he was immediately dissatisfied.

"Why, sister? I live with my brother, why should I live in the smallest room? I think my brother and I should live in the room downstairs, and you should live upstairs."

The third bedroom upstairs is incomparable to the bedroom downstairs. It is only about half the size. Zhou Cong is certainly not happy about it being suitable for two people to live in.

Feng Yue immediately put her hands on her waist in anger: "Why? Because I'm your sister. Also, I'm a girl and you're a boy, you should be gentle with me, understand? We girls need to get some sun, and the room upstairs is in the shade, I definitely can't live there."

"We boys need to bask in the sun too."

"Congcong, I think you deserve to be punished..."

The three children immediately started playing in the room.

Zheng Juan and Li Suhua watched the scene with a smile, and then began to clean up the room.

"Bingyi, your phone number."

In the Hao family villa, the nanny heard the phone ringing, and after answering it, she immediately shouted upstairs.

"coming."

Zhou Bingyi came down from upstairs, and Hao Dongmei followed closely behind him.

Zhou Bingyi answered the phone and hung up after a while, then his expression became very complicated.

Hao Dongmei came over from the kitchen and saw her husband in a daze, so she pushed him in confusion.

"Bingyi, what's wrong with you? You look distracted. Who called you?"

Zhou Bingyi came back to his senses and said, "My mother."

Hao Dongmei asked in surprise: "Are your mom and the others back?"

"Well, not only is he back, he's also moved to a new home. Let's go over there tonight to get to know the place."

"Moved to a new house?"

Hao Dongmei was shocked: "Why do you want to move to a new house?"

Zhou Bingyi smiled bitterly and said, "My mother told me that this was Bingkun's idea. He said that the children have grown up and the previous house is no longer big enough for them, so he bought a small western-style building, and it is just one street away from us, very close."

"How much does it cost to buy a western-style building?"

Hao Dongmei was very shocked. Although the housing prices in Jichun were not high, the small Western-style building was different from ordinary houses.

You should know that although they are living in a big villa in the provincial compound now, it is not their house, but a house subsidized by the state and provided for her parents to live in.

Once her parents are gone, the house will be taken back, and they will no longer be able to live in such a nice house.

Now hearing that Zhou Chen actually bought a small Western-style house that was not much worse than this one, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Zhou Bingyi: "Have you forgotten that Lao Yao has sent a message saying that Zhou Chen is the behind-the-scenes boss of Chenxing Group. Chenxing Group's assets exceed 1 billion. Buying a small western-style house in Jichun is not a big deal for him at all."

Hao Dongmei: "This is really..."

After thinking for a long time, I still didn't know what to say, so I could only ask, "Shall we go over there tonight?"

Zhou Bingyi did not answer immediately, but sat on the sofa and fell into deep thought.

"Dongmei, do you want to go?"

Hao Dongmei thought for a moment and said, "It's been so many years since the incident happened. I don't really care anymore. And to be honest, I really want to see Ruirui and the others. I'm just afraid that your brother will have another conflict with you."

No matter how deep the hatred was, it has been eight years since then. Moreover, senior official Hao has been dead for several years, so there is not much resentment left.

However, due to the estrangement in recent years, Hao Dongmei is still reluctant to contact Zhou Chen, but she has no objection to the children of the Zhou family.

Zhou Bingyi made a decision: "Let's go. My mom has called. It would be bad if I didn't go. My dad is also going to retire this year, and the family will definitely get together. We should not miss it."

He thought that the scene where he and Zhou Chen met must be very embarrassing, but sometimes it's not just that they can't see each other, after all, it's a family, brothers, and the bones are broken and the tendons are still connected.

"Okay, then let's tell my mom that we won't be home for dinner tonight."

After returning to Jichun, Zhou Chen did not stay at home, but took his assistant to have dinner with the city leaders he had made an appointment with.

The person who was in contact with Zhou Chen this time was a deputy senior official in the city, and his rank could be said to be very high, mainly because the name of Chenxing Group was famous enough.

Before meeting Zhou Chen, this senior city official had already investigated Zhou Chen's background. After learning that Zhou Chen was a native of Jichun, he immediately developed a great liking for him.

However, he also investigated the relationship between Zhou Chen and Zhou Bingyi, but he did not take any action. Instead, he planned to make a decision after talking to Zhou Chen.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou." "Hello, Leader Chen."

Leader Chen was in his forties. He was very enthusiastic when he saw Zhou Chen.

In fact, Leader Chen did not know how high Zhou Chen's position was in Chenxing Group, because Chenxing Group was registered in Hong Kong and the legal person was also a Hong Konger.

But Zhou Chen’s registered residence was in Yanjing, so he was not aware that Zhou Chen said he was the chairman of Chenxing Group, but no one could tell how much power he had.

But even though he didn't know how much power Zhou Chen had, based on Zhou Chen's relationship with Zhou Bingyi and the Hao family, he felt it necessary to be more enthusiastic.

It was the first meeting and both parties had a friendly attitude, so the meal was very enjoyable and the conversation was very satisfying.

Leader Chen naturally agreed to Chenxing Group's investment in Jichun. He also expressed his own opinions, hoping that Zhou Chen could consider investing in Jichun's factories. Many factories in Jichun were facing difficulties and lacked funds, so he wanted to get something for nothing from Zhou Chen.

But how could Zhou Chen agree to him? These state-owned factories had too many problems. Even if he could acquire them all, there would still be endless troubles.

After knowing Zhou Chen's meaning, Leader Chen didn't care. He was just trying to give it a try. It would be best if he agreed, but it didn't matter if he didn't agree.

After lunch, Leader Chen brought his secretary and Zhou Chen together, with the purpose of showing Zhou Chen the land.

Because Zhou Chen wanted to buy land to build a factory and a building, he needed a larger area, but Jichun was not short of vacant land now.

In one afternoon, Zhou Chen looked at seven or eight pieces of land and liked several of them, but he did not show anything on the surface.

Zhou Chen naturally treated the leaders to dinner at the best hotel in Jichun.

Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei rode their bicycles and quickly found the small Western-style house that Zhou Chen had bought.

The two stood in front of the small foreign building, with different expressions, Hao Dongmei said with emotion: "Your brother seems to be really mad."

This small building looks no worse than their villa, especially since it is surrounded by walls on all four sides, making the place look much bigger. Although they haven't gone in yet, they can tell from the outside that the inside must be good.

"This kid always does something unexpected."

Thinking of what Zhou Chen had done over the years, Zhou Bingyi also felt emotional. He used to be able to act like a big brother, but since he came back from the Construction Corps, he no longer had the dignity of a big brother in front of Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen works at Yanjing Hospital and can invest in such a large group in Hong Kong. If it had not become a fact, he would never believe it even if he was beaten to death.

"Let's go in."

Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei arrived at the gate, and before they could ring the doorbell, they saw someone running towards them.

"Uncle."

"Yue Yue?"

Looking at the beautiful young girl in front of them, Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei were stunned for a moment, then they reacted.

Feng Yue happily opened the door: "It's me, uncle, aunt, you are here, grandma is waiting for you in the house."

Hao Dongmei looked at what Feng Yue was holding and asked curiously, "Yueyue, is this a camera?"

"correct."

Feng Yue took out the camera in her hand and said, "This is the latest Canon camera that Uncle Guangming brought me from Hong Kong."

Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei didn't know much about cameras, but seeing that the camera in Feng Yue's hand was relatively small, they could tell at a glance that it was not cheap. However, considering Zheng Guangming's current status, it was not surprising.

"Uncle, aunt, let me take a picture of you later."

"Okay, then auntie will wait for you to take pictures for us later."

"Yueyue, when will your parents come back?"

When Feng Yue heard Zhou Bingyi mention his parents, her smile suddenly faded: "I don't know, come in quickly, grandma is waiting for you."

Seeing Feng Yue jumping and running away, Zhou Bingyi shook his head helplessly: "This girl."

He has not been in Yanjing in these years, but judging from Feng Yue's attitude, he knows that her views on her sister and brother-in-law have not changed much.

Sometimes he couldn't understand how Zhou Rong and her family could bear to abandon such a good daughter. If it was their daughter, they would definitely not be willing to hand her over to someone else to raise.

When they walked into the building, they saw Li Suhua walking towards them happily.

"Bingyi, Dongmei, oh, you're here. Mom missed you so much."

When Zhou Bingyi saw Li Suhua, his eyes turned red and he choked up and said, "Mom."

As he said this, he hugged Li Suhua tightly. He hadn't seen Li Suhua for several years since he left Yanjing. He was naturally very excited to meet her again.

Hao Dongmei stood aside and watched the mother and son, her eyes slightly red, and she felt extremely regretful.

In the past few years, she had some opinions about both her parents-in-law and Zhou Chen, but they were more directed at Zhou Chen, which was why she hadn't met her mother-in-law for several years.

Now seeing her husband and mother-in-law so excited, she felt really regretful in her heart and thought that she was too selfish. It was only a problem between her family and Zhou Chen, and she should not involve her parents-in-law.

"mom."

Li Suhua let go of Zhou Bingyi and happily pulled Hao Dongmei: "Dongmei, Mom misses you very much too. Bingyi wrote to say that you are now a cadre in the hospital. That's great."

Hao Dongmei looked guilty: "Mom, I'm sorry, we should have come to see you earlier."

Li Suhua patted her hands gently: "It's okay, Mom understands."

As they were talking, Zheng Juan came down from upstairs with her two sons, and everyone exchanged greetings again.

After a while, Zhou Bingyi didn't see Zhou Chen, so he asked Li Suhua: "Mom, where is Bingkun? Isn't he home?"

Li Suhua said: "Kun'er went out this morning. Juan'er, what did Kun'er say?"

Zheng Juan said, "Bingkun said he was going to discuss something with the city leaders today, so he probably won't be back until very late."

"Did you go to discuss matters with the city leaders?"

There was a gleam in Zhou Bingyi's eyes. He went to talk about business right after returning. He could probably guess what they could talk about.

…………

"Boss, we're here."

Zhou Chen, who was sitting in the back seat with his eyes closed, opened his eyes when he heard the driver's words, and raised his hand to check the time.

Nine seventeen.

He had dinner with many leaders tonight and drank a lot of wine. Even though he has a good alcohol tolerance and a good physique, he was still a little tipsy.

But the result was good. He got to know a lot of people. These people were all powerful figures in Jichun. They wanted to make friends with him, so Zhou Chen naturally accepted everyone who came.

Build a good relationship first, then talk about things later, it will be much easier.

"Xiao Sun, come pick me up at nine tomorrow morning."

"Okay, boss."

Xiao Sun is Zhou Chen's current driver. In fact, he is only one year younger than Zhou Chen, but due to the difference in their status, Zhou Chen has no problem calling him Xiao Sun.

Originally, Xiao Sun called Zhou Chen "Chairman", but Zhou Chen thought it was too high-profile, so he asked him to call him "Boss". Nowadays, the title of "Boss" is very common and can be seen everywhere.

As soon as Zhou Chen walked into the yard, he found that the house was brightly lit. When he walked into the house, he found that Zhou Bingyi and his wife had arrived.

"Bingkun, my elder brother and his wife are here."

Zheng Juan was afraid that Zhou Chen would be unhappy with her, so when she saw Zhou Chen coming in, she quickly walked up to him, changed his clothes, and winked at him.

Zhou Chen took off his coat, changed his shoes, walked to the sofa, and called out, "Brother, sister-in-law, when did you come here? Why didn't you notify me?"

Zhou Bingyi stood up, walked to Zhou Chen, and silently patted Zhou Chen's arm.

"Mom called me today and I just found out you guys are back. You didn't even bother to inform me when you came back so I could pick you up."

Zhou Chen replied: "It doesn't matter, I'm back anyway. How are you doing recently? I heard that you are now a deputy director. Our Zhou family finally has a talent."

Hearing Zhou Chen's praise, Zhou Bingyi said, "What kind of talent am I? I am just holding a sinecure now. It is you who are the greatest talent in our Zhou family. I have heard that the Chenxing Group in Hong Kong is your company?"

"Not really, I'm just one of the shareholders."

Zhou Chen did not deny it, but he did not tell the truth either. He then congratulated Hao Dongmei: "Sister-in-law, I heard that you are now an associate chief physician. Congratulations."

Hao Dongmei smiled awkwardly: "Compared with you, my achievements are far behind."

She has just become the deputy director of the obstetrics and gynecology department of Jichun City Hospital, but Zhou Chen has long been the deputy director of Yanjing University Hospital. Although they are both deputy directors, the gap between them is still very large.

At this time Feng Yue hurriedly ran down from upstairs.
