At three o'clock in the morning, there was still no movement in the east wing, Aunt Chen gave up the idea of letting the little couple get up to eat, picked up the cloth bag and went out of the yard to lock the door and leave.

Zhang Guoqing was sleeping on the kang in the bedroom, his arms tightly hugged Zhou Jiao under the quilt, his legs circled her legs, and occasionally muttered a few words in a vague voice.

Zhou Jiao slowly opened her eyes, her imprisoned legs couldn't be stretched, and she smiled helplessly - this man was domineering in his bones.

Enduring the soreness and numbness all over her body, she lay motionless in his arms. It was a rare good day, the sun was shining on the curtains, and Zhou Jiao half-squinted, considering whether to wake him up.

"Sweet ...... Hehe...... Flowers......"

Zhou Jiao blushed when she heard this, and no longer had any pity, so she stretched out a hand and hit him on the head.

Zhang Guoqing was awakened, hugged her tightly again, and patted her on the back gently, "Good, you were very tired last night, so go back to sleep." ”

"Your son called you."

Zhang Guoqing lowered his head and kissed her, "Don't make trouble, go to sleep." ”

"I don't have a smooth blood flow all over my body, and my legs are numb. I can't sleep, I'm going to get up. ”

Zhang Guoqing grabbed her leg and rested it on her waist, rubbing it gently, "Why get up, lie down with me, let's chat." You say how nice it would be to do this every day. ”

"Hello, I'm not good."

"A duplicitous woman. You were ...... last night."

Zhou Jiao hurriedly covered his mouth and glared at him, "You say you will sleep in the study tonight." ”

"I'm fat, and I'm doing this trick again. See if you're convinced? Next time, do you dare to let your man stay alone in the empty room? ”

There was a turmoil under the bed......

was succeeded by this man again, Zhou Jiao was so angry that he pinched him, "You did it on purpose!" ”

Zhang Guoqing smug a smile and sealed her mouth.

Well, his daughter-in-law is so smart.

……

Zhou Jiao woke up again, she was the only one in the room, and hammered the quilt fiercely. She'd have to stun him with drugs next time.

Picked up the neatly stacked clothes and pants on one side, and after putting them on, Zhou Jiao took a bun from the space and padded her hungry stomach after washing.

Sticking out her head to listen carefully to the sound in the courtyard, Zhou Jiao hesitated for a while, and Zhou Jiao went out of the door.

"Your dad definitely won't be able to go back, but I don't know how Jiaojiao decides. I am not happy to go to the sacrifice. ”

As soon as Zhou Jiao entered the living room, she heard this sentence and paused, "Grandma Zhou is gone?" ”

Lin Lishan subconsciously observed her expression, and her heart was full of frustration. Why are the two fathers and daughters all the same? What exactly does this mean, to go or not to go?

Zhang Guoqing stood up and pulled her to sit down, "I'm hungry, you talk to your mother, I'll go to the kitchen to serve something." ”

Zhou Jiao nodded, "Less." ”

Zhang Guoqing nodded knowingly.

"In the afternoon, I received an urgent telegram from Lao Zhou's house, saying that the old lady left late at night." Lin Lishan handed her the telegram.

Zhou Jiao unfolded it and looked at it, counting the time, she died the day before yesterday, and it seems that the old Zhou family also hesitated for a long time whether to notify herself. Thinking of the old lady just leaving, she was a little distracted.

"Jiaojiao, do you want to go back?"

Zhou Jiao shook her head, "People die and everything is rested, why do you go back?" In what name? It's okay to go, I hope the old lady will have a good tire as soon as possible. ”

Lin Lishan asked her uncertainly, "Really not going back?" You must know that you can still go in time to send the old man up the mountain. If it's too late, it's too late to enter the ground. ”

Zhou Jiao shook her head again. For her, the last time she went to see the "uncle" Zhou Xiaocun, she didn't visit Mrs. Zhou, which means that her fate is over.

"I'm so entangled in my heart, it's hard to go or not. Your aunt and grandmother are also old, and it is difficult to consult with her. ”

Zhou Jiao patted her hands, "People are gone, who are you going to worship for?" The old lady didn't want us to pay respects to her, otherwise she would have been in a hurry to see my father before leaving. My dad was a substitute for her son who died young, and her dream of "pro-old son" was punctured. This so-called old son will not kiss. ”

"Your dad doesn't know what to think. He said that he couldn't leave, and he would go back to his hometown to worship later. Do you think he will be sad in his heart? ”

"It must be sad, after all, I raised him and played the role of a mother for so many years. Even if this role is not responsible, the feelings are still there. However, my dad thought the same as me, that people were dead in a hundred. What's more, in what capacity did our father and daughter go to the door? Let him wear filial piety with the old son of the old Zhou family? Joke! ”

"That's true."

"So, don't discuss this in front of my dad. When my grandmother died, he didn't wear linen and filial piety, don't stab him with scars. Also, because the old lady hid my father's background, let my grandmother not see her son for decades, and I was not happy. Forget it, I don't want to talk about them. ”

Zhang Guoqing stopped Aunt Chen and personally ordered a bowl of noodles. When they came over, they saw that Zhou Jiao's mother and daughter had already talked about things and moved on to other topics.

"Eat first."

"Little Wu, Jiaojiao is sure not to go back."

Zhang Guoqing was not surprised, and nodded to indicate that he understood. With his daughter-in-law's temperament, it would be strange if he went back. It's just that he knows too well, so he didn't wake up Zhou Jiao as soon as he received a telegram.

Zhou Jiao finished eating the noodles, glanced at the time, and stood up, "I'll pick up my dad from work first." Peace is over to both of you. ”

Zhang Guoqing smiled: "Go, intimate little padded jacket." I went to pick up my son, and my mother was at home waiting for us to come back. ”

"What an intimate padded jacket. She hasn't picked me up from my unit yet. ”

Zhou Jiaole laughed happily and quipped: "Mom, you're jealous." ”

"yes...... Pick up your dad, he's going to be overjoyed. He is most than happy to take you out to show off. ”

Zhang Guoqing took off the coats of the two mothers and daughters, and said with a smile: "Mom, we don't envy their father and daughter, let's go to pick up Ping'an, and show off well." ”

"Yes, let's go too."

The three of them walked to the fork in the road, Zhou Jiao waved goodbye to them, and turned to go to Zhou Xiaozheng's unit.

Zhou Jiao had been here once before, and she had some impressions, standing at the gate and asking the guards on duty to hear that her father was not going out, and she didn't plan to go in.

I looked at the time and refused to be notified. Zhou Jiao stayed away from the gate, stood in an inconspicuous place, and looked at the door from time to time.

After a few minutes, Zhou Xiaozheng and a few people went out after work, only to see the guards pointing to the location where Zhou Jiao was standing.

Zhou Jiao was so happy to see that she jumped up and ran in front of Zhou Xiaozheng.

"Slow down. Why don't you come in on such a cold day? ”

"I just came, and I didn't go in to bother when I got off work." After Zhou Jiao finished speaking, she smiled at several soldiers on the side, "Uncles and uncles, I haven't seen you for a long time, why don't you come to my house to sit." ”

A swarthy man said in a loud voice: "Old Zhou, you see how good your daughter is, and you know how to invite us to be a guest." What do you see? ”

A middle-aged man with glasses on the side asked with a smile, "Did Xiao Wu go hunting with those boys recently?" ”

Zhou Jiao understands in seconds, this is a greedy wild thing. She pretended to whisper to him, "Uncle, we don't need Xiao Wu, someone from my hometown just brought a lot of meat." What do you think? Have a drink? ”

"Really, that's great. We'll go to your house in the evening, and you'll have to cook it yourself, girl. ”

"No problem. Let me tell you, I think of my cousin's cousin and the bottle of good wine given by the chairman's grandfather. Don't say I'm a snitch. He's a baby, look ......," he said, and winked at them.

Everyone was amused by her.

Zhou Xiao was looking at his daughter dotingly beside him. If his daughter has the heart to have a good relationship, her means will not be worse than that of her son-in-law.
