Beihai Park is relatively famous in the city, but both of them live in the capital and are familiar with Beihai Park, so appreciating the scenery of the park is secondary. The most important thing is to understand each other.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening. After spending an afternoon together, the two got to know each other a lot.
"Chen Lin, do you have anything to do tonight? I'll treat you to dinner."
Facing Zhou Chen's invitation, Chen Lin looked at Zhou Chen, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally smiled and said, "Okay."
So Zhou Chen took Chen Lin to a relatively famous restaurant at the time, Zaowen Restaurant, and had a simple meal.
After dinner, Zhou Chen took the initiative to send Chen Lin back home, and then went home alone.
After an afternoon and dinner, Zhou Chen already had a general understanding of Chen Lin.
The girl is a few years younger than him, only 22 years old this year. Although she comes from a high-ranking family, she is not arrogant. She has a straightforward personality and a capable style of doing things. Judging from her temperament alone, she is a person who is relatively easy to get along with.
As for her appearance, she is not a great beauty, but she is very comfortable to look at and has a good figure.
Of course, it's not all advantages, there are disadvantages as well. For example, my skin is slightly dark, which may be related to my military service, or it may be due to genetic or environmental reasons, but it's not that dark, it can only be said that it's not white.
As for whether there are any others, I have only been exposed to it for a few hours and can only see a limited amount.
But overall, Zhou Chen felt better than before they met. Before they met, he was always worried that the other party would be difficult to get along with.
On the second night after the blind date, Zhou Chen went to the boss’s house again. To his surprise, he ran into He Yuzhu this time.
He Yuzhu brought the last dish to the table, and the leader asked him to sit down as well.
At the dinner table, there were the big boss and his wife, plus Zhou Chen and He Yuzhu, a total of four people, just one on each side.
The big boss first tasted a few bites of the food, then picked up the wine glass and drank a toast with Zhou Chen and He Yuzhu.
"Zhu Zi, your Sichuan cuisine is still authentic."
He had eaten Sichuan cuisine cooked by many people in the capital, but He Yuzhu's was the only one that suited his taste the best, which was why he often asked He Yuzhu to come over.
He Yuzhu smiled and said, "As long as you like to eat, I will come immediately if you call me, without hesitation."
"Haha."
The big boss laughed a few times and looked at Zhou Chen: "Xiao Zhou, you met my comrade's daughter yesterday. How did you feel about it?"
He had never met Chen Lin, but had only heard his old friend praise her. Although he felt that his old friend would not lie to him, he would only know whether she was good or not after meeting her.
Zhou Chen said: "I personally feel good, but I don't know if they will look down on me. After all, I am just a small factory doctor."
The senior leader said dissatisfiedly: "That's not right. Whether workers or cadres, we are all working hard for the country's development. There is no distinction between high and low."
"Yes, yes, I said the wrong thing. I spoke without thinking." Zhou Chen apologized.
"Okay, you can say this at home, but don't say it outside."
The big boss was not angry, he just reminded Zhou Chen to be careful.
"Since you think it's a good match, I'll tell my comrade. If he has no objection, I think you should have more contact with each other in the future. If you can succeed with her, it will be helpful to you."
Zhou Chen naturally nodded in agreement. He knew that the leader was really thinking about him, and he could still tell good from bad.
The chief's wife said with a smile: "Xiao Zhou, you have to work hard. I am still waiting to drink at your wedding."
"sure."
After dinner, Zhou Chen did not stay long. He Yuzhu packed up the leftovers as usual and left in the car arranged by the boss.
In the back seat of the car, He Yuzhu kept looking at Zhou Chen, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and spoke first.
"I really didn't realize, Zhou Chen, you are so capable that you actually let a big leader introduce you to a date, and the other party seems to be the child of a high-ranking official?"
Zhou Chen replied indifferently: "Why, envious? If you are envious, you can also ask the leader to help you bridge the gap."
"whispering sound."
He Yuzhu said disdainfully: "I am not the kind of person who curries favor with the powerful, and I will never do anything to flatter others. I know myself clearly. I am just a cook and I don't want to climb high branches."
Facing He Yuzhu's ridicule, Zhou Chen was very calm and just replied: "Yes, everyone has their own aspirations. Just like I can't do the kind of thing that takes the initiative to offer myself to be someone's son-in-law, and I won't just recognize random parents just to be with a widow."
This was a deadly statement that instantly angered He Yuzhu.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 913: Another year, a fool who never learns his lesson
He Yuzhu has been called "Shazhu Shazhu" since he was a child and has long been accustomed to being ridiculed. In the past, whenever he encountered someone who irritated him, he would use his fists to deal with it.
This time, too, he was angered by Zhou Chen's words.
His father ran away with a widow many years ago. Later, he took his sister to look for his father, but was driven out. This incident has always been a thorn in his heart.
So when Zhou Chen said that he was going to be a son-in-law and find a widow, he was angry, but not furious.
But when Zhou Chen said that he had the wrong parents, he couldn't tolerate it.
The furious He Yuzhu lost his mind for a moment. He didn't care that he was no match for Zhou Chen, nor did he care that he was still in the car. He swung his fist at Zhou Chen.
"You're looking for death."
The outbreak was sudden, but the suppression was also sudden.
In the narrow space inside the car, He Yuzhu's fist attacked instantly, but Zhou Chen reacted faster. He grabbed He Yuzhu's fist and twisted it hard, causing He Yuzhu to cry out in pain.
The next moment, He Yuzhu's arm was twisted by Zhou Chen, and Zhou Chen's other hand pressed directly on the back of his head, pushing his body forward. He Yuzhu was controlled instantly, and his head was pressed into the gap between the driver's and co-driver's seats in the car.
He Yuzhu screamed in pain, shocking the driver in front so much that he trembled and almost lost his grip on the steering wheel.
"Brother Chen, don't worry, just drive your car."
Zhou Chen said something to comfort the driver Brother Chen, then looked down at He Yuzhu who was being held down by him and struggling while crying out in pain.
"He Yuzhu, is this all you have? If you can't win an argument with me, then you're ready to fight me. Do you have what it takes?"
"Let me go, Zhou Chen, if you have the guts, let me go, and let's fight with real swords and guns."
He Yuzhu roared loudly, but just looking at his powerless struggle, he looked helpless and furious.
Zhou Chen said contemptuously: "How many times have you fought with me? Which time did you get the upper hand? I really don't know how you have the nerve to say that."
He Yuzhu was still struggling, but the gap between his strength and Zhou Chen's was too big. No matter how he struggled, he could not break free from Zhou Chen's control.
Fortunately, the driver had already driven the car to the gate of the courtyard at this time.
"Doctor Zhou, we're here."
The car stopped, but Zhou Chen did not let go immediately. Instead, he warned He Yuzhu: "If you want to do it again, I will not be so gentle later."
After saying this, he let go of the hand that was holding He Yuzhu.
If it were He Yuzhu's previous personality, he would definitely roar and rush over again as soon as Zhou Chen let go of his hand.
But this time, he learned his lesson and just rubbed the arm and the back of his head that Zhou Chen was holding down. Although Zhou Chen did not use any force, he still felt a strong pain when he exerted force.
He Yuzhu glanced at Zhou Chen coldly, without saying a word, opened the car door, and got out of the car carrying his lunch box.
Zhou Chen said to the driver: "Brother Chen, please give me a trip."
Brother Chen said with a smile: "It's my boss's order, so I should do it."
This was not the first time that it had sent Zhou Chen and He Yuzhu, but it was the first time that he had seen Zhou Chen's tough side. In his previous understanding, although Zhou Chen was tall and strong, he was a gentle and elegant doctor.
When Zhou Chen took action today, he realized that Doctor Zhou actually had such a powerful side. Seeing how he easily suppressed He Yuzhu just now, his strength should definitely not be underestimated.
"Don't worry, Doctor Zhou. I won't tell the commander about what happened just now."
Zhou Chen was stunned for a moment, then smiled at Brother Chen: "Thank you very much, Brother Chen."
Although he was not afraid of being found out by his superiors, since the other person was kind-hearted, he naturally would not refuse the other person's kindness.
After being scolded by Zhou Chen, He Yuzhu returned home angrily and found Qin Huairu helping him clean up the room.
Qin Huairu saw He Yuzhu coming back with a smile on her face. Just as she was about to speak, she noticed that He Yuzhu's face turned black and looked angry.
"Silly Zhu, what's wrong with you? Who provoked you?"
He Yuzhu snorted coldly, "Who else could it be? It could be Zhou Paopi from the front yard. This guy's words are too rude. Damn it, sooner or later, I will kill him."
When Qin Huairu heard He Yuzhu's tone, she knew that he must have suffered a loss at the hands of Zhou Chen again. She also felt helpless. She had told him many times not to provoke Zhou Chen, but He Yuzhu never learned his lesson.
"Silly Zhu, Zhou Chen is not our enemy. You really don't need to fight him."
He Yuzhu glared at her in dissatisfaction: "Do you also think that I can't beat him?"
"I didn't mean that. I just thought that since we all live in the same courtyard, why should we make things so awkward? What's more, Zhou Chen is a doctor. If we get sick or feel unwell in the future, we will have to rely on him."
Qin Huairu was trying to persuade him with good intentions. Her idea now was very simple, which was to tie He Yuzhu up and raise her three children well. So she didn't want to cause trouble, especially someone as difficult to deal with as Zhou Chen. She didn't want He Yuzhu to mess with him.
"We won't be alive without him? You can go to the hospital when you are sick, but you are not allowed to go to him for treatment in the future. Do you hear me?"
"Okay, okay, okay, if you say you don't want to go, then I won't go. I'll listen to you."
Qin Huairu didn't argue with He Yuzhu, but followed He Yuzhu's lead, as for whether to go or not, it was her own decision.
"But didn't you go to that big boss's house to have dinner today? Why did you have a conflict with Zhou Chen again?"
He Yuzhu showed disdain on his face: "I always thought that Zhou Chen's grandson was so noble, but it turns out that he didn't look for a partner before in order to let the big boss introduce him to someone."
Qin Huairu looked surprised: "The big boss introduced a date to Zhou Chen?"
"Yes, and she is the daughter of a senior leader. So I say, he is really shameless. Everyone in the hospital is deceived by his appearance. In fact, he is the same as Xu Damao, a sycophant who loves to curry favor with others."
"That's impossible. Zhou Chen isn't that kind of person, right?"
Qin Huairu didn't quite believe it. She was familiar with Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen was definitely the most promising one in their courtyard, but it was impossible that he was the same kind of person as Xu Damao as Sha Zhu said.
He Yuzhu sneered, "That's because you haven't seen his true face. I tell you, I'm smarter than you when it comes to judging people. Zhou Chen's grandson has always been arrogant. He doesn't like ordinary women. He just wants to find the children of high-ranking officials. He is that kind of person."
Qin Huairu didn't want to talk more about this topic, so she changed the subject and said, "No matter what kind of person he is, we live our lives and he lives his life. It has nothing to do with us. By the way, is what you said to Banggeng's grandmother yesterday true? Are you really willing to give her five dollars a month?"
He Yuzhu muttered, "What else can I do if I don't agree? You should know your mother-in-law better than me. Last time, even the deaf old lady pointed at her nose and scolded her, but it didn't work. I don't have to bribe her with money, what else can I do?"
Speaking of this, he recalled the conflict he had just had with Zhou Chen in the car. Zhou Chen mocked him for being someone else's son-in-law and for recognizing random parents. His mood instantly became bad again.
Qin Huairu didn't say anything, and she couldn't say anything. After all, He Yuzhu did this just to be with her, and in the end, her family was the beneficiary.
However, she felt that the best solution to this problem was that the money He Yuzhu gave to her mother-in-law would eventually be used in their family. Her mother-in-law was so old, even if she saved money, it would eventually be saved for her grandson Banggeng.
"Shazhu, what do you say, after we get married, I will come live with you, let my mother-in-law live at home, and let Banggeng live in the rainwater house alone, what do you think?"
When He Yuzhu heard this, he immediately laughed: "Of course there is no problem. Banggeng is that big now. When I was his age, I had already lived alone."
He has been single for 31 years and has never lived with a woman. If Qin Huairu had not been unwilling to let him have her way before they got married, he would have certainly been unable to resist making a move on her.
Xu Damao, who had stayed in the hospital for a few days, was finally discharged. Coincidentally, when he was discharged, it was afternoon and many people who worked in the hospital had returned.
Therefore, Xu Damao's return attracted the attention of many people in the hospital.
Xu Damao was furious when he saw the way everyone was looking at him, especially He Yuzhu. As Xu Damao's old rival, He Yuzhu's wanton mocking and laughter made him grit his teeth in hatred, but he had just been discharged from the hospital and his body had not recovered yet, so he did not fight with He Yuzhu on the spot.
After returning home in a mess, Xu Damao no longer needed to pretend in his own home.
He yelled angrily: "Damn you, Sha Zhu, you made fun of me in front of so many people, I will never let him off easily."
He and He Yuzhu were irreconcilable from the beginning, and he had always wanted to kill He Yuzhu, but he just hadn't found a good opportunity.
Qin Jingru advised: "Da Mao, you just got out of the hospital, and the doctor told you to rest for a while. Sha Zhu is just a fool, why are you arguing with him?"
Xu Damao was about to get angry, but when he thought that he still needed Qin Jingru's care, he suppressed his anger.
"Why don't you bother with him? Remember this, I will kill Sha Zhu sooner or later. I won't let Zhou Chen in the front yard go either."
Qin Jingru could only go along with him: "Okay, I understand, you take a rest first, I'll cook for you."
"Give me some more meat. I need to have a good rest."
"I haven't been home for a few days, where can I get the meat?"
"Then go to the market and buy it. The market is still open at this time."
"Okay, got it. Wait a minute, I'll go buy it for you now."
Qin Jingru had no choice but to put on her clothes and go out again. However, she still felt very happy to be in charge of the finances these days. She had never had so much money in her life.
Xu Damao was indeed a vengeful person. Not long after he came back, he heard that Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu were about to get married. He immediately came up with a plan and thought of how to deal with He Yuzhu.
So one day, Zhou Chen was riding his bike back from get off work and happened to see an interesting scene.
I saw Liu Guangdang from the second uncle's family, along with a few young men, blocking Banggeng at the entrance of the alley. They hung a pair of worn-out shoes on Banggeng, pointed at Banggeng and mocked his mother for being a worn-out shoe.
Banggeng was a very stubborn person with a strong sense of self-esteem. When he was bullied, he got so angry that he started fighting with Liu Guangdang and a few others.
