"Dongmei, have your parents tasted the tea?"
"This is my hidden treasure, hahahaha, good things must be shared with my in-laws."
Zhou Zhigang laughed heartily and looked very proud.
Lu Ze keenly noticed that the eldest brother and sister-in-law looked a little strange after hearing the word tea.
The happy Zhou Zhigang did not notice this.
Lu Ze understood that the Hao family obviously still kept the tea sent by the in-laws in a small room specially designed to store door-to-door gifts.
The meaning of Hao's parents is already quite obvious.
Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei naturally knew this.
For this reason, Hao Dongmei even had a big quarrel with her mother at home, treating the gifts from her in-laws as if they were being sent by others. This attitude of her parents made Hao Dongmei very chilling.
Fortunately, they later agreed to meet with the Zhou family, but they still came to the door in person.
A house visit?
Lu Ze shook his head slightly, knowing that this was impossible.
Even the gifts of tea were handled in a business-like manner. How could the Hao family's parents come to visit?
The so-called temporary things in the original book of the human world are just so-called rhetoric.
When someone sends your gift back in front of you, it is self-evident that it is sending an invisible signal to the Zhou family.
Don't get involved!
Zhou Zhigang was happily pulling Zhou Bingyi into the back room: "Will Dongmei's parents have dinner at our house tomorrow afternoon? Will they be at Photon's house or Bingkun's house? Do we need to prepare anything else? ?」
[The problem of slow update of new chapters can be solved by
Yu realized what it meant to go from the peak to the bottom of the valley. He looked eagerly at the roads on both sides of the door. Every car that came and went was stared at by him.
Zhou Rong had already started to yawn.
"Dad, how long do we have to wait for this?"
"Hua Cheng and I are going to watch a movie tonight. Is this sister-in-law's parents not going to come?"
Zhou Rong's crow's mouth finally got it right for once.
——Didi!
The sound of a car horn outside the door made Zhou Zhigang, who wanted to turn around and scold his daughter, quickly turn around.
The old man looked at the doorway with deep joy and excitement in his eyes.
"Why are you still standing there?"
"Let's go quickly!"
When they arrived at the door, they saw Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei, who had been waiting for a long time, already approaching them.
Lu Ze took one look and knew that the script still followed the plot in the original work.
If nothing else, Leader Hao still committed filial piety.
"Sorry, I'm so sorry."
"Today, when the chief was inspecting the factory below, he suddenly suffered from asthma and was sent to the hospital. Director Jin has already rushed over and specifically asked me to come and tell everyone so that everyone won't have to wait here."
Listening to the secretary's words, Hao Dongmei always felt that something was not right.
"Of course, Director Jin takes this matter very seriously."
"He also specially asked me to prepare a car full of gifts. I will move them in for my family right away."
Zhou Zhigang originally thought that something had really happened to his in-laws.
But even under this situation, he had not forgotten the Zhou family waiting at home, but his heart was still full of gratitude.
It was just when he saw two jars of familiar tea placed on top of those luxurious gifts.
The expression on Zhou Zhigang's face seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and looking like crying but not crying.
At this moment, he received the biggest blow in his life.
It was even more serious than the time when I found out my daughter was sleeping with a prisoner in a labor camp.
Because at this moment, he felt that the dignity he regarded as life had been seriously trampled on.
Li Suhua next to her noticed something strange about her husband, and the old lady quickly stepped forward to support him.
Following Zhou Zhigang's gaze, Li Suhua covered her mouth and exclaimed: "Zhigang, isn't this the tea you sent?"
The old lady's exclamation attracted people's attention.
Hao Dongmei and Zhou Bingyi noticed the two cans of tea and looked extremely ugly.
"Bingyi..."
"This must be a misunderstanding. Secretary Huang must have picked up the wrong gift when moving it."
Hao Dongmei looked nervously at her husband beside her.
Zhou Bingyi looked at his parents in front of him. He didn't react at all. He just stayed there without moving.
Seeing her husband next to her like this, Hao Dongmei was completely panicked.
"Dad, Mom."
"sorry."
After a long time, Zhou Bingyi said these two sentences and then walked out the door.
...
Lu Ze appeared next to Zhou Bingyi and looked at the eldest brother.
"Brother."
"Do you think my sister-in-law's father is really guilty of filial piety?"
I saw Zhou Bingyi laughing and shaking his head. His eyes were very bright at this moment: "It doesn't matter whether it is yes or no. We all know what they mean by returning these two jars of tea."
"Secretary Huang has been with the Hao family for some years, and he is usually known for his carefulness."
"There's no way to make a mistake."
Lu Ze stared at Zhou Bingyi and spoke directly.
"Then what do you mean?"
"It's normal for people to look down on our family, because our family's conditions are like this."
"But one cannot look down on oneself."
"So, I'm wondering...what do you mean?"
The final key to this matter will naturally fall on Zhou Bingyi.
Instead of hesitating between the two sides, it is better to make a decision sooner.
Are you willing to sacrifice your own dignity and even the dignity of your whole family to hug the Hao family's thickest thigh?
Or should you insist on standing with your family and say no to this behavior that completely disrespects your own dignity?
Zhou Bingyi has been working hard in the Corps for many years.
He is an adult.
He didn't answer the question.
Lu Ze already knew the answer.
"Bingkun, you will understand me, right?"
"I really have no choice. I just can't hold my head high in front of the Hao parents."
"I don't dare to go back and face the disappointed eyes of my parents now."
"I want to pursue an official career. I know better than anyone how difficult this road is. If there is no one behind me to protect me from wind and rain, no matter how talented I am, I will have to take decades of detours."
"sorry..."
Lu Ze understood Zhou Bingyi's choice.
But he didn't respect this choice.
"It's nothing."
"From now on, just think of yourself as the son of the Hao family. This is the last time you will hurt my mother."
"From now on, it's best for you and the Hao family to stay away from each other."
"Thank you."
Sorry for the answer.
Not that it doesn't matter.
This matter is naturally very relevant.
