Ye Huilan had a weird smile on her face, and Zhou Xing also had a weird smile on his face. Zhou Wenhai's heart went crazy because of their laughter.
"What surprise? Are you hiding something from me?" Zhou Wenhai frowned, looked at them and asked:
"Dad, don't worry! Since it's a surprise, I must tell you later to have the surprise effect!" Zhou Xing chuckled:
Father and son had not communicated for a while, and Zhou Xing found in vain that his father had more gray hair on his head and his face looked haggard.
Noticing the ashtray full of cigarette butts on the table, Zhou Xing frowned and asked with concern: "Dad, are you in a bad mood after smoking so many cigarettes so early in the morning?"
"It's nothing, what surprise can you give me? Don't cause trouble for me, I'll thank God!" Zhou Wenhai's expression darkened slightly, and he said angrily:
After increasing his IQ by 25 points, Zhou Xing's observation skills became very keen. When Zhou Wenhai spoke, he looked sad and insincere, which could not escape his eyes.
Could it be that... something bad happened at the factory
Zhou Xing looked at Ye Huilan and saw that the smile on her face suddenly stiffened. Now he was more sure of his judgment. They must have encountered a difficult problem, otherwise his parents, who have always been smart and capable, would not have such ugly expressions. .
"Dad, is there something wrong with the factory?" Zhou Xing looked at Zhou Wenhai and asked tentatively:
Hearing this, Zhou Wenhai was slightly startled and looked at Zhou Xing with gratified eyes. After all, the child had grown up and knew how to care about others.
Zhou Wenhai waved his hand nonchalantly, not wanting to burden Zhou Xingyou and said, "It's okay! If anything happens, don't worry about it. Eat quickly, the food is already cold!"
Zhou Xing rolled his eyes and expressed his frustration that he was still treated as a child even though he was so old.
"Dad, I'm an adult now. Tell me what happens at home! Maybe I can help!" Zhou Xing said seriously:
"Just you? We can't do anything. What can you do? If you want to help, come to the factory with me tomorrow!" Zhou Wenhai said noncommittally:
Zhou Xing's smile froze. He suddenly wanted to visit the factory. The problem system forced him to study. Where could he go to reason
"What! What's wrong?" Zhou Wenhai looked at Zhou Xing with a joking face and said firmly: "Looking at your mother's face, I will let you play for a few more days. When the college entrance examination results come out, no matter whether you are willing or not, you must follow I’m going to work in the factory, you hear me?”
"I know!" Zhou Xing reluctantly responded:
Zhou Xing didn't mind being forced to work in a factory or anything like that. When the college entrance examination results came out, the previous agreement could be terminated at any time. He was even more worried about what kind of problems his parents had encountered. Their faces were so ugly.
What kind of broken system, what kind of mandatory learning status is set, it makes it impossible for him to take time out to do anything serious now, it's too deceiving.
The forced learning state was about to turn on again in ten minutes. Zhou Xing's face turned pale and he had to continue studying after eating. He didn't have any extra time to find out what was embarrassing his parents, let alone help.
Damn it, what to do
Zhou Xing had a sullen face and frowned, not knowing what to do.
"Don't just talk, the food is cold. Let's eat quickly!" Ye Huilan put a chicken leg on the porcelain bowl in front of Zhou Xing and said:
"Thank you, Mom!" Zhou Xing thanked Ye Huilan, picked up the chicken legs with chopsticks, and ate them with big mouthfuls:
A family of three, each with his or her own thoughts, ate in silence.
Zhou Xing finished two large bowls of rice in a few minutes, and drank a bowl of pork rib soup in one gulp.
"Dad, Mom! I'm full. I'm going back to my room to read!" Zhou Xing put the bowls and chopsticks on the dining table and said goodbye:
"Well, let's go! Don't look too long and take a rest!" Ye Huilan nodded lightly and warned:
"Okay, Mom!" Zhou Xing responded happily, stood up and walked towards the second floor.
Zhou Wenhai was confused when he saw the two of them chatting and talking in a serious manner.
Your son said he wanted to go back to his room to read
His wife also specifically told him not to look at it for too long and to pay more attention to rest
What book to read? Haven't you finished the college entrance examination? What are they doing, mother and son? How did their conversation become so incomprehensible
"Xiao Xing, please wait a moment before you leave!" Zhou Wenhai stopped Zhou Xing who was about to turn around and leave. He looked at Ye Huilan and asked puzzledly: "I said, which song are you two singing today? I don't know. Are you confused?"
"Dad, don't be in a hurry! You will know the answer in a few days, and there will definitely be a surprise!" Zhou Xing said emphatically with a mysterious smile:
"Yes! Yes! Lao Zhou, you will know the answer if you wait for a while, don't worry! It's guaranteed to be good news!" Ye Huilan smiled happily, nodded her head and persuaded:
After saying that, the mother and son looked at each other, smiled at each other, and stood on the same front in a tacit understanding.
"What good news? Who wants to come to our house?" Zhou Wenhai frowned and asked in extreme confusion:
"Dad, just be patient for a few days! I have no evidence now, and you won't believe me if I tell you!" Zhou Xing chuckled and said seriously:
"That's right! You will know when the time is up, so stop guessing!" Ye Huilan persuaded with a bright smile:
"What good news? My birthday hasn't come yet! It's so mysterious..." Zhou Wenhai looked confused and muttered complainingly:
Later, Zhou Wenhai gave up his plan to continue exploring. The mother and son worked together to hide it from him. What else could he do
"Xiao Xing, please go back to your room! What do you want to eat tonight? I'll cook it for you." Ye Huilan smiled and said to Zhou Xing:
"Thank you, mom!" Zhou Xing thanked Ye Huilan. Before leaving, he did not forget to give him a "little flattery" and said sweetly: "Mom, you can cook whatever you want. They are all delicious and I love eating them all.”
After saying that, Zhou Xing turned around and walked straight to the second floor.
"Little flattery!"
Watching Zhou Xing go up to the second floor and listening to what he said before leaving, Zhou Wenhai rolled his eyes and couldn't help but laugh and curse:
"What! Do you have any objections to the dishes I cook?" After hearing Zhou Wenhai's laughter and scolding, Ye Huilan immediately quit her job, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she said in a feminine tone:
Meeting Ye Huilan's gaze, Zhou Wenhai couldn't help but shudder.
"Xiaolan, you misunderstood! I felt that the brat had become a bit louder recently and his mouth had become sweeter, so I couldn't help scolding you. I really don't dislike your cooking, really! I rush home every day, and I also have social activities. If you don’t go, it’s just to take a bite of your cooking!” Zhou Wenhai was not afraid of danger, his face straightened, and he explained sincerely:
"Really?" Ye Huilan's face looked a little better:
"There is absolutely no lie in the conscience of heaven and earth!" Zhou Wen said solemnly with a tight face:
"Okay, I believe you, the brat has changed a lot recently!" Ye Huilan seemed to have remembered something, nodded happily, and said with a bright smile:
Hearing this, Zhou Wenhai immediately breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Ye Huilan with lingering fear.
Fortunately, fortunately, he responded quickly and the crisis was over. Zhou Wenhai happily wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
