Zhou Ren was two years older than Zhou Li, got married early, and had much more emotional experience than him.
Zhou Ren also knew that Zhou Li had never been in love before, so it was normal to be at a loss.
"With sincerity, gold and stone are opened. Come on." Zhou Ren patted Zhou Li's shoulder twice to encourage him.
Zhou Li said nothing.
Zhou Ren: "Does the second uncle know about the matter between the second brother and Miss Zheng?"
Zhou Li: "He won't let me talk."
Zhou Ren: "What about the child? The Zheng family refuses to admit him?"
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
Zhou Ren: "With the second son's temper, it's normal for the Zheng family to look down on him."
Although they are brothers, Zhou Ren was not polite when he commented on Zhou Yi, "If Ruoruo finds such a boyfriend, I will not agree to it."
Zhou Ren and Zhou Ruo are brothers and sisters. From the perspective of the elder brother, he understands Zheng Linxu's behavior very well.
——
When Zhou Li and Zhou Ren came back, they saw Jiang Mingzhu eating candied haws and playing guessing games with Xiao Zuo and Xiao You.
Jiang Mingzhu squatted on the ground without any pretense, smiling like a child, perfectly blending in between Xiao Zuo and Xiao You.
When Zhou Li looked over, his facial features softened unconsciously, and this scene also fell in Zhou Ren's eyes.
Zhou Ren understood very well why Zhou Li liked Jiang Mingzhu.
Being smart and beautiful is secondary. Jiang Mingzhu is a very lively and multi-faceted person. Zhou Li has lived a step-by-step life since he was a child. Even love and marriage are arranged. It is difficult to resist when meeting such a woman.
But it’s hard to handle someone as smart as Jiang Mingzhu, and Zhou Li still has a long way to go before he can catch her.
There is still Zhan Yubai who has not been solved yet.
Jiang Mingzhu was playing with Xiao Zuo and Xiao You, and it wasn't until Zhou Li called her name that she realized he was back.
Jiang Mingzhu raised her head to look at Zhou Li.
Zhou Li: "Let's go."
Before Jiang Mingzhu could answer, Xiao Zuo Xiaoyou stopped her: "Uncle Third, I still want to play with Sister Mingzhu."
Zhou Ren: "Sister Mingzhu and my third uncle still have very important things to do. I'll ask her out to play another day."
Xiao Zuo and Xiao You were reluctant, but the two children had always been very sensible, and finally reluctantly said goodbye to Jiang Mingzhu.
Jiang Mingzhu hadn't finished eating the candied haws on her hand. After walking a few steps, she asked Zhou Li, "Do you want to eat it?"
Zhou Li was confused for a moment when asked, and was a little surprised: "It's for me."
Jiang Mingzhu: "I can't eat anymore. If you don't want to eat it, you can only throw it away."
Zhou Li's eyes dimmed a bit.
It turned out that I gave it to him because he couldn't eat anymore.
Zhou Li didn't move for a long time, and Jiang Mingzhu happened to see the trash can: "Then I'll throw it away."
After she finished speaking, she was about to walk towards the trash can, but was stopped by Zhou Li as soon as she took a step.
Zhou Li took the candied haws from her hand and said, "Give it to me."
Jiang Mingzhu handed him the candied haws, and the two continued to stroll in the amusement park.
Zhou Li took the candied haws in his hand and frowned slightly.
He doesn't like sweets very much, and he only encountered candied haws a few times when he was a child.
His childhood habits did not allow him to walk and eat at the same time in places like amusement parks.
"Why don't you eat it?" Jiang Mingzhu promoted to Zhou Li: "This candied haws on a stick is delicious. Both Xiao Zuo and Xiao You like it."
Her tone was very warm and sincere, without any hint of acting. Zhou Li was rarely treated like this by her.
After listening to Jiang Mingzhu's words, Zhou Li picked up the candied haws and bit one into his mouth.
For a moment, the sweet and sour taste jumped on the tip of the tongue, stimulating the taste buds.
Zhou Li chewed slowly.
He was wearing a suit today and was still very noble. He was holding a bunch of candied haws to eat. The contrast was almost the same as riding on My Little Pony just now.
There are many people in the amusement park, and people will look at Zhou Li when they pass by.
Zhou Li was not used to being looked at, Jiang Ming
Zhu noticed his unnatural expression, which was a little funny.
She suddenly remembered that people like Zhou Li would not be able to walk and eat at the same time.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Is it delicious?"
Zhou Li: "It's okay."
Jiang Mingzhu: "I think it's delicious, and it has no core, so it's easy to eat in big bites."
When talking about candied haws, she obviously talked more. She rarely took the initiative to talk so much to him these days.
Zhou Li: "Do you like candied haws very much?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "I like it. I didn't eat it when I was a child."
"There are very few candied haws-alongs sold in Hong Kong City, and they are very expensive. I couldn't eat them in the welfare home. Later, after my brother went to work as a part-time worker, I could eat candied haws-alongs." When talking about Pei Ye, Jiang Mingzhu's tone changed. Same.
When she said "my brother", it was with a natural preference and a little show off, without hiding it.
Zhou Li: "Why didn't he continue studying?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "He didn't like studying, so he went to work early."
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
Jiang Mingzhu: "After I went abroad, he also came to Beicheng. He told me that there are a lot of candied haws in Beicheng, so sweet, and much more authentic than those in Hong Kong City."
She smiled and her eyes began to feel sore. She paused for a few seconds before saying the next words: "I originally promised to buy them for me after the holiday... Unfortunately, they are gone, and there are no candied haws and cheese cakes. .”
Zhou Li held her hand and clearly saw the tears in her eyes.
"Jiang Mingzhu." Zhou Li asked her, "Do you also hate the Zhou family?"
Jiang Mingzhu grabbed the candied haws in his hand and bit into one. She quickly chewed it and swallowed it. She answered him with the sweet and sour taste remaining between her lips and teeth: "Yes."
Zhou Li's hand tightened.
But he wasn't surprised to hear the answer.
Jiang Mingzhu: "My brother has grown taller since he was a child and has good health. He can carry me on his back to climb mountains. Later, he has been doing manual labor while working."
"After his kidney was removed, he had to wear a coat in the summer. He shivered every day and his body temperature was extremely low. I could no longer use him as a heater like I did when I was a child." Jiang Mingzhu raised her head and looked at the sky. The stars tonight There seem to be a lot of them. I wonder which one Pei Ye has, and whether he is also looking at her.
"Later, my parents took him back to the hospital in Hong Kong City. The doctor said that he missed the best time and might be like this in the future... Well, I was comforting myself at the time. As long as he was here, he wouldn't be a heater for me. Very good, he has taken care of me for so many years, and I will always take care of him."
Zhou Li kept taking deep breaths, his chest feeling heavy and heavy: "I'm sorry."
I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me.
The Zhou family has an inescapable responsibility for Pei Ye's death.
Jiang Mingzhu: "If you feel sorry, please find out the matter as soon as possible and send her in."
"It is difficult to find evidence of illegal organ theft, but evidence of in vivo experiments can still put her in jail."
"Okay, I will." This time, Zhou Li answered firmly.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Yeah."
Zhou Li: "I'm sorry."
If they had not been so anxious, and if they had been more rigorous, such an accident might not have happened.
Jiang Mingzhu could hear why Zhou Li was apologizing. She curled her lips and said, "I no longer hate the Zhou family. It's meaningless."
Zhou Li: "What about me? Do you hate me?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Do you want to hear the truth?"
