The new year is approaching, and the glory is beaming.
Zhang Qian lay half-dead on the sofa, dropped his mobile phone, and laughed on the sofa: "Hahaha, the actor Guan Da was stuffed with a movie, and he went to the desert to shoot a movie. He deserves it! Let him dangle around the company leisurely every day. !"
Zhao Zhi got up and began to pack things: "My mother-in-law will go to city b for the New Year. Today's plane, I will pick her up, and take the family to dinner by the way. The finishing work is on your behalf, I will leave first."
"..."
The office door was closed, Zhang Qian looked at the pile of documents on the desk with trembling lips, wailed, picked up the phone, and made a call.
"Zhou'er... Save—"
beep-
The phone was hung up mercilessly.
He looked at the phone dumbfounded, and then beat the sofa furiously: "Beasts! Bullying single dogs! Not people! A bunch of scumbags!"
"What's the matter?" Yu Shulin looked at Liang Zhou and scanned his cell phone: "Whose phone, I looked for you in a hurry, it has been ringing for a long time."
Liang Zhou calmly hung up the phone, turned off his mobile phone, and said, "It's nothing, you sell insurance. How much do you have for homework?"
"There are still four test papers, two physics, two chemistry, Chinese and an essay... The rest is done." He turned over the pile of winter vacation homework under his hand, settled in his mind, and said, "Maybe tomorrow. You can finish it."
"No hurry, you can write slowly. It's hard work." Liang Zhou touched his head and said: "If you stick to it for another half a year, it will be easier after the college entrance examination is over."
"I know." He squinted and smiled, and continued to work on his homework.
The atmosphere is just right, but it's a pity that uninvited guests come.
Liang Zhou looked at Yan Kaiwen who came in behind He Bo with cold eyes, frowned and said, "What are you doing here?"
"As a partner, I can't come to pay a year in advance?" Yan Kaiwen shrugged and glanced over Yu Shulin who was lying on the coffee table doing his homework. His eyes lit up, he took two steps forward, and shook the bag he was holding: "Shu Lin, I heard that your favorite watch broke some time ago. When I returned to China this time, I specially bought a new one for you. How about it? My new brother is not bad, right?"
"Don't climb relatives indiscriminately." Liang Zhou's face turned dark, and he stepped sideways, blocking his sight of Yu Shulin, and said coldly: "The new year is over, please go back."
Yan Kaiwen had a toothache when he looked at him from thousands of miles away. He was frustrated. He put down the hand holding the gift, straightened his expression, and said seriously: "Liang Zhou, I have already conveyed your previous request to him. agreed."
"What's the requirement?" Liang Zhou frowned. Because of Christmas, Kaiwen Yan returned to China for a while, and the cooperation between the two companies was temporarily suspended. He did not remember what he had asked before the other party left.
Yan Kaiwen put down the gift and solemnly said: "The uncle's request to apologize at your mother's grave. He got off the plane at noon today and is now on his way to your mother's graveyard. If you want to see it, the car that picks you up will stop at the door. outside."
"No need." Liang Zhou was silent, shook his head, and waved to He Bo: "Send off the guest."
Yan Kaiwen frowned: "Why? Isn't this what you want?" He returned to China and talked with his uncle for so long before he got the result now. Why did Liang Zhou react so coldly
… It’s not supposed to rush to the cemetery, and then the father and son will let go of their previous suspicions… Okay, this is unlikely, but rushing to the cemetery to have a fight is okay, quarreling is also a way of communication, isn’t it.
"Mr. Yan, please." He opened the door, stretched out his hand expressionlessly, and saw off the guests directly.
"No, wait a minute." He took two steps forward, grabbed Liang Zhou's arm, looked at his eyes and asked: "Why don't you have to? Go take a look, don't you want to see our sincerity and apology? why do not you go?"
"Because this is Mr. Yan Wei's apology to Ms. Zhou Qingya, and your sincerity to your brother does not need him." Yu Shulin suddenly interjected, walked to Liang Zhou's side, and said calmly to Yan Kaiwen: "Mr. Yan, if your brother today Go, then, in my opinion, Mr. Yan Wei’s apology is nothing more than a hypocritical performance to soften his brother. This apology is what Aunt Zhou deserves. You shouldn’t want to use such an apology, go Let brother do something."
"I didn't..." Yan Kaiwen shook his head intuitively, wanting to deny what he said.
"What if you don't have it?" Yu Shulin raised his eyebrows: "Your uncle has enough."
Uncle... Thinking of the other person's attitude when he persuaded his uncle to come, Yan Kaiwen darkened his eyes, sighed, and said helplessly: "I am too tough, sorry, I will leave now."
Liang Zhou frowned.
"Wait a minute." Yu Shulin called to him, took out a small pendant from his pocket, and threw it to Kaiwen Yan: "Thank you for your birthday gift and New Year's gift. This is a gift for you."
Yan Kaiwen caught the small crystal pendant, stunned, and smiled: "You're welcome, I'm the brother."
"I only have an older brother Liang Zhou." Yu Shulin shook his head and smiled when the other's eyes dimmed again: "But I welcome you to come and play with me as a friend. Of course, my brother will welcome you too."
Yan Kaiwen's eyes lit up, and he looked at Liang Zhou: "Friend? Really?"
Liang Zhou still had a dark face, but did not refute this statement, nodding: "Partners are also a kind of friends."
"Okay." Yan Kaiwen took the pendant back into his pocket and grinned with a smile that was not elite at all: "Then let's make an appointment next time, happy new year, goodbye."
Yan Kaiwen left, and the two went back together again.
Yu Shulin opened the gift from Yan Kaiwen, touched the exquisite and luxurious watch in the box, and looked at Liang Zhou: "Brother, you have a good impression of Yan Kaiwen, right."
"Others are not bad." Liang Zhou nodded, playing with the gift Yan Kaiwen gave him, his brows still frowned: "Unfortunately, his surname is Yan."
"Yes, it's a pity that his surname is Yan..." Yu Shulin sighed, quietly putting wax on Yan Kaiwen in his heart.
The elder brother is not a hard-hearted person, so Yan Kaiwen has been stalking him for so long on the grounds of cooperation, and his elder brother's attitude should have softened. What's more, the people who made mistakes were Yan Wei and Yan Wei's wives, and they had nothing to do with Yan Kaiwen. He shouldn't have to bear Liang Zhou's cold treatment. Blame, blame, he is here on behalf of Yan Wei.
Yan Wei's lobbyist, if his brother behaved a little softer, then Yan Wei would be able to make an inch. So after thinking and thinking about it, I can only sigh with emotion, the last name is different, and they are not conspiring...
Liang Zhou could not go to see Yan Wei's kowtow and apologize, but there were two people who had to go.
After receiving Liang Zhou's notice, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother rushed to the cemetery emotionally.
When she saw the well-maintained and well-dressed middle-aged man standing in front of his daughter’s grave, Zhou’s mother burst into tears and sternly shouted: “Yan Wei, you have been hiding abroad for more than ten years, so many days and nights. Ye, can you sleep peacefully at night? Did you see my daughter entrusting a dream to ask you for her life!"
Yan Wei's back trembled, turned to look at them, his eyes patrolling behind them, and said dumbly: "Where is Zhouzhou?"
"Ha, Zhouzhou?" The mother of Zhou threw away Zhou Qinghe and held her hand, took the first two steps, raised the crutches and smashed towards him, sneered: "Why, don't you want to call my grandson's surname? I'll tell you His surname is Liang! His surname is Liang for the rest of my life! My daughter is looking at you on the tombstone! What face do you have to mention Zhouzhou’s name! Do you still have a heart!"
Several bodyguards stood beside Yan Wei. Seeing her doing something, the one who stood closest stepped forward, holding the crutches waved by Mother Zhou, frowning and saying in a little unskilled Chinese: "You show respect to the boss. "
"Stop it." Yan Wei blocked his movement, turning his head to say a few words in English. After listening, the bodyguards looked at each other for a few seconds, then turned and withdrew ten steps away.
The crutches were loosened, and the mother of the boat staggered two steps before she stood still. After she stood firm, she rushed up again, grabbing Yan Wei's arm, pulling him to the tombstone, pointing to the picture of Zhou Qingya, and said fiercely: "Look at her, take a good look at her, remember what she looked like back then? Do you remember what she looked like when she was lying in the coffin! You show me a good look!"
Zhou Qingya is very beautiful, and she looks like a literary show unique to the Zhou family. After so many years of wind and sun, the photo has faded and blurred a lot, but the gentle smile in her eyes can still make people feel at ease even across the tombstone.
She was obviously such a jumpy woman, but when she laughed, her eyes were full of reassuring power. Yan Wei stared blankly, and couldn't help but remember the scene when the two met for the first time.
Qingya also smiled like that back then, saying hello to him.
After all these years, the beautiful lady has gone, and in his heart, he has never forgotten this smile.
Those deliberately forgotten memories flooded again, and the pictures once together were so beautiful that he didn't dare to think about it, because he didn't want to wake up again. Suddenly, after the car accident, Zhou Qingya was covered with blood, her heart trembled, and she returned to reality.
He tilted his head slightly, unwilling to face the beauty and cruelty that was once.
The sun gradually set, clouds piled up, and the sky filled with red clouds.
Mother Zhou looked at the photo of her daughter, with tears in her eyes: "Yan Wei, for so many years, I have always missed the grievances of my daughter in my heart. Now that vicious woman is dead, you can taste all the sins back then. Bar."
She raised her crutches tremblingly, and struck Yan Wei's knees hard in the dimming sky, her voice stretched long and heavy: "Yesterday's sins, today's retribution, kneel—"
Yan Wei was staring at the picture of Zhou Qingya in a daze. Unsuspectingly, he was knocked straight on a crutches, his knees bent, and he knelt down against the tombstone.
With a muffled sound, he landed on his knees, and in the sudden pain, he held his palms on the ground, and looked up at the smiling woman on the tombstone.
This is sin.
After evading for so many years, it is finally time to pay back.
The old lady Zhou stretched out her hand and touched the picture of her daughter on the tombstone. Her lips trembled. She wanted to say something, but in the end she squeezed out a choked call, "Qingya...Qingya..."
Looking at his wife who was already in tears, Father Zhou quietly tilted his head, wiped the corner of his eyes, looked at the tombstone, and repeatedly traced his daughter's name with his eyes.
Daughter, my father is useless, he couldn't help you get justice, but fortunately, your son has the ability to help you out...
Zhou Qinghe and Zhou Qingren stood behind their father, watching all this, their eyes were reddish.
After calling the wind and calling the rain for so many years, Yan Wei finally let go of his self-esteem that is higher than the sky in the cries of Zhou's mother, and gave Zhou Qingya three firm knocks.
The bodyguards who were not far away had terrible expressions, and they looked at Zhou Mother as if they were about to eat people.
Yan Wei glanced at the mother of Zhou who was crying sad and relieved holding the tombstone, stood up on the ground, straightened her back, and said that she was sorry for being too late, "Auntie, back then... I'm sorry."
"Will you go to the police station to plead guilty?" Father Zhou looked at him blankly.
Yan Wei tidyed up his clothes and shook his head, "Sorry, no."
Will not plead guilty. The car accident that year was too long. What they could win for their daughter was only this "sorry", unwilling, dissatisfied, but helpless.
"You go." Father Zhou stepped forward, helped his wife, and stopped looking at him: "I know what you came back for. It's impossible. Give up."
"Uncle." Yan Wei wanted to take two steps forward. With a pain in his knee, he frowned, stopped where he was, and continued: "Zhou Zhou is my son after all. I am coming back this time, just want to see him."
"Zhou Zhou doesn't want to see you." Zhou Qingren said, emphasizing Liang Zhou's surname: "For the last time, his surname is Liang."
Yan Wei’s habit of being a high-ranking person began to move up again, frowning, “You can’t fool me. Zhouzhou looks like me. How could it not be my son? I’ve checked and his date of birth is also the same. Back then... the time was right. What surname is Liang, he should be surnamed Yan!"
"Unreasonable!" Zhou Qinghe frowned, waved to interrupt his brother's next words, and said in a deep voice: "If you want to grab Liang Zhou, you must first step on the corpse of my Zhou family! If you can't step on it... Humph, then I advise you to get out as soon as possible! Are you still bullying like I was in the Zhou family?" He finished speaking, took out his cell phone and made a call. After a while, a group of bodyguards appeared from all over the cemetery. , Gathered around a few people.
Yan Wei twitched his forehead, and said sternly, "What are you going to do?"
"What not to do?" Zhou Qinghe sneered, and the superiors were more stylish than him: "In order to welcome guests like you who love to show up, I, Zhou family, naturally have to prepare."
After the group of bodyguards approached, they directly protected in front of the Zhou family and looked at Yan Wei with enthusiasm.
Yan Wei looked at this posture, caring about his own image and face, gritted his teeth, and waved his hand calmly: "Let's go!"
Zhou’s mother was relieved from the grief. Seeing her family surrounded by a group of big men, she was frightened. She hurriedly pulled Zhou Qinghe’s sleeves and said, “Boss, I know you hate Yan Wei. But, let’s No matter how you hate him and want to kill him, you can't be involved in the underworld. Qingren is still an official now, this has a bad influence..."
"Mom, don't worry." Zhou Qinghe coughed awkwardly, waved his hand to disperse the group of fierce "bodyguards", supported Zhou's mother and said: "That is the security of our company, I just want them to change It’s just acting out of clothes, it’s not a triad, don’t worry."
"Ah..." Mother Zhou was silly, looking at the honest "bodyguards" who gathered together to remove the vicious masks, and then at her long-awaited son, shook her head and smiled: "Boss, you are really... such an adult. , And naughty."
"Brother, you are too foolish." Zhou Qingren looked at the group of tall people dumbfounded, and said: "I thought you really went to hire a bodyguard. So... I was thinking about fighting. How to deal with the aftermath."
"Okay, it's late, let's go home." Father Zhou glanced back at his daughter's tombstone and took the lead to walk out: "Don't disturb Qingya's rest."
After hanging up the phone, Liang Zhou leaned on the sofa and did not speak for a long time.
Yu Shulin touched it lightly, pressed his shoulder from behind, rubbed his face with his head, and asked, "How's it going?"
"Yan Wei is gone." Liang Zhou raised his hand and touched his face with complicated eyes. "Grandma was a little excited today. She just took the medicine and fell asleep... Shulin, do you hate your father?"
"I hate him." Yu Shulin turned to look directly into his eyes, "Brother, do you hate Yan Wei?"
"No." Liang Zhou shook his head, pulled him and hugged him, preventing him from seeing his expression, "I hate him."
Yu Shulin hugged him back and patted his back comfortably, "I understand."
The time shifts to the end of January, and the new year comes.
On New Year’s Eve, the Zhou family’s old mansion.
Zhou Shi was five months pregnant at this time, and his whole body was fatter. Li Zhong followed and looked after him, very diligent and caring. After the two got engaged, they didn't have a wedding. They went on a trip to get married. They went crazy all over the world for a few months. They didn't return to China until Zhou Shi got big belly, which scared the two parents.
Zhou Qi finally caught up with Wen Qi, the youngest daughter of the Wen family, and successfully abducted the person back to see the parents. At this time, Wen Qi was pointing at Zhou Shi and Li Zhong and laughing. There was no ladylike image at all. "Look at Li Ge's cautious look. I don't know that Xiao Shi is nine months pregnant."
"Ah, pay attention to the image." Zhou Qi bumped her, gestured the direction of his parents with his eyes, and showed a pleased expression at her.
Wen Qi hurriedly sat down with her hands and feet, smiled shyly at the elders, secretly stretched out her hands, pinched the boat and started, lowered her voice and said, "Why, don't you think I'm not quiet enough?"
"No, no, dare not, you know I didn't mean that." Zhou Qi quickly whispered for mercy.
Zhou Qinghe and his wife had already seen through Wen Qi's lively temperament. Seeing the two juniors glaring at each other, they looked very affectionate, they felt like they didn't see Wen Qi's gaffe just now, and they continued to chat with the old lady and old man.
After more than ten years of stress, the two elders of the Zhou family felt much more relaxed. Seeing that their grandchildren had a happy husband and wife family, and their sons were very filial and promising, they would talk more than usual when they were in a good mood.
The Zhou Qinghe brothers deliberately made their parents happy. They just said what it sounds good. With only a few words, the atmosphere in the main hall was noisy.
Zhou and bitterly squatted in the yard, rubbing and rubbing the window grilles in their hands, with an angry expression on their expressions.
Everyone just wanted to make grandparents happy. After the couplets were posted, they ran in and chatted together, leaving them alone outside to put the window grilles. This is not fair! Doesn’t it mean that the youngest child is the most favored? Why does no one hurt him! What about New Year's gifts and red envelopes? This is not the same as the stated plot!
"Why are you alone in the yard, everyone?"
A familiar voice rang at the entrance of the courtyard. Zhou He swiped his head up and saw Liang Zhou standing at the door frowning, his mouth slumped, and the window grilles were thrown away. Abandoned me, so boring..."
Liang Zhou ducked sideways, took out the red envelope and patted him on the face, and said mercilessly: "Hold the red envelope while playing, how about grandma and them?"
"Zhouhe, happy new year." Yu Shulin probed from behind Liang Zhou, took out a box and handed it over: "Here you are, a New Year gift. Why are you outside, everyone?"
"No brotherly love, cold-blooded!" Zhouhe was very angry when he didn't receive the care and love he deserved.
Liang Zhou decisively withdrew his hand: "The red envelope is gone."
"Don't, don't—" Zhou He wailed, quickly snatched the red envelope back into his pocket, and then stretched out his claws toward the gift in Yu Shulin's hand, and said with a doggy smile: "Everyone is inside, cousin. I was pregnant, my cousin brought his girlfriend back, and everyone was talking in the main hall."
"Pregnant?" Yu Shulin was stunned, then his eyes were filled with surprises, and he hurriedly pulled Liang Zhou toward the inside: "Brother, let's go in and have a look. You can be promoted in a few months, and you will be unhappy. ?"
Liang Zhou allowed him to pull, with some smiles in his eyes: "I think you are the happier."
"I was very happy at first, when have I been unhappy."
The brothers went in affectionately, then the main hall was lively for a while, and the conversation became louder.
Zhouhe stood in the yard holding red envelopes and gifts, feeling sad.
"I really fell out of favor! God is unfair—"
"Roar what, are the grilles finished? Come in when you are done!" Zhou Qingren's preaching sound came through the door panel, and the boat and neck shrank, and he looked aggrieved at the window grilles that he had crumpled into a ball, shriveled. mouth.
—This is what you asked me to post. Don’t want me to post it if it doesn’t look good.
"I'll go out to help the boat and put up window grilles. He is busy working in the yard alone. It's boring." Yu Shulin put the gifts he brought to everyone on the coffee table and got up to go out.
"Let him post it alone, Xiaoyu, you sit down." Zhou Qingren stopped with a smile, and said helplessly: "The kid is getting more and more skinny recently, and he had to put the English answer card in the wrong place during the final exam. After failing the exam and returning, your little aunt is so angry. Just leave him alone, just let him howl."
"What are you talking about in front of the child? Who is angry? Nonsense." The little aunt pushed Zhou Qingren a little bit, and said grotesquely: "It's obviously that you usually spoil him too much."
"Well, I'm spoiled." Zhou Qingren said helplessly.
