It took a whole day to buy things to bring home, although it felt a little uncomfortable for two people to bring so many things, but Zhou Zekai was sure that he might never go abroad again in his lifetime, so naturally he bought everything that should be bought Yes, all are gifts for the people in the family.
Early the next morning, he tidied himself up and went to Xu Liming's house. Xu Liming knew that he was coming yesterday, so the family was well prepared. He waited for him in the study alone. Zhou Zekai was brought into the study by his teacher Ji Yunling .
Walking into the study room, he looked at the man sitting behind the desk lazily reading a book. Zhou Zekai was still very familiar with this room. He walked over and sat on the side. After the master finished reading, if Zhou Zekai was only interested in writing poetry before, And if he wrote a few good poems, then after meeting Xu Liming later, he really understood what a romantic poet is, and was deeply fascinated by it.
Xu Liming naturally knew that Zhou Zekai was coming, but he didn't intend to talk to him for a while. Regarding Zhou Zekai's return to the country, he thought differently from his daughter. Zhou Zekai hadn't planned to return to the country before, why did this suddenly change? Hang up? This made Xu Liming a little curious.
After the two of them remained silent for a while, Xu Liming finally spoke.
"Mingzhen, I heard from Lingshan that you are going back to China in a few days?"
This Lingshan is Xu Miaoyun's name, which was chosen by Xu Liming himself. The Xu family only has such a girl, and Xu Liming's wife, Ji Yunling, is not in good health. Naturally, Xu Miaoyun was carefully taught by Xu Liming, and she is comparable to men.
"Yes, Master, a letter from home said that I am very worried about how I am outside too much. I have seen a lot of things abroad. Although I have not finished my studies, it is not what I want to pursue. Now the country is in a period of turmoil. I want to go back to the country to watch, my parents are old, my wife and daughter are young, and there is no one in the family who can take care of me, if I don’t go back to the country, I’m afraid there will be panic at home.”
Zhou Zekai nodded. It was necessary to return to the country this time. He came here just to say hello to Xu Liming.
"So..." Xu Liming could understand the reason, but he raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Zekai, and suddenly frowned and asked in a low voice.
"Since you are leaving, master, I will not hide some things from you. That girl Lingshan probably has some thoughts about you. I saw that you also had these thoughts before, so I separated you. Where is the little girl? I can't say it clearly, since you are leaving, I am relieved, Mingzhen, Master, I only have such a girl in my life, and I want her to take over the Xu family's business, you are not suitable."
This is why Xu Liming thinks that Zhou Zekai and his daughter can't be together. He wants to find a son-in-law for his daughter, and the Zhou family, Zhou Zekai definitely can't let go of the Zhou family. There is no such thing as forcing people to divorce their wives.
"Master, the longings I had for my junior sister before were just because my wife was far away, so I missed them a lot. I can't count them. With such a beautiful and graceful junior sister, I will definitely be able to find a good son-in-law for my master."
Zhou Zekai didn't change his face, as if he didn't have any thoughts on this matter, but he didn't know that when he said this, Xu Miaoyun, who was going to come in with tea outside the door, already had tears in his eyes. Father had said that the senior brother would come over today, and her mother had just informed her that the senior brother had come in, so she came over with tea, but she never thought that hearing this made her feel extremely sad.
"Okay, okay, okay." Saying yes three times in a row, Xu Liming looked at his usual soft apprentice with a smile on his face, but now he saw firm belief in his eyes.
"It's the best if you don't have such an idea. The daughter of my Xu family is precious. I let Lingshan get along with you, but it's just to let her meet more men. Only when she sees more men, So you won't be deceived by those men who speak sweet words. To tell you the truth, Mingzhen, even if you like Lingshan, I won't allow you to be together. If you can't even be responsible for your wife, how can I be sure? Can you be responsible for the rest of Lingshan's life?"
When he was talking, Xu Liming had a half-smile on his face. He is a very smart man. Being able to cultivate such a character for Xu Miaoyun is enough to prove his strength. Using a man to make his daughter see through the relationship is a good thing. have to come.
Zhou Zekai suddenly realized at this moment, why in the previous plot, Zhou Zekai confessed to Xu Miaoyun, but the confession was obtained, and the people of Xu's family went to the sky, probably because Xu Liming's last experiment was completed. After confessing, from the perspective of a father and a man, he told his daughter that Zhou Zekai was irresponsible.
When a man has a wife and wants to pursue another woman, and says he likes it, how long can this kind of love last? Even if it is for this woman to separate from his wife, it would be very shameless, not to mention that even if Xu's family grew up abroad, Xu Miaoyun's education was Western education, Xu Liming also wanted to tell her that if a woman marries, she will be married to her husband's family. status.
It is precisely because of this that, being as smart as Xu Miaoyun, she naturally made the choice immediately to leave with her father instead of choosing such an illusory love.
"Master, I am afraid that I will never come to the United States again when I return to China. This farewell means that I will not be able to see each other for the rest of my life. This is a parting gift for Master. I hope that Master and his mother will be in good health, and that my sister will find Master's love." men spend their lives together."
Listening to Xu Liming talking about his calculations, Zhou Zekai didn't care. As a father, he always has to think about his daughter, but after this veil is lifted, their master-student relationship may no longer exist. Yes, put the prepared gift on the table, then looked at Xu Liming with a smile.
Both of them are old foxes, so they naturally understood what this meant, and Xu Liming didn't want to keep Zhou Zekai, so he replied.
"You go back, since you are going back to the country, then pack up and go."
No more words, not even those fake farewell words. As a father, the first time Xu Liming found out that Zhou Zekai had such thoughts about his daughter, he was already a little disgusted. Now that Zhou Zekai was able to leave, Xu Liming naturally be happy.
"Yes, farewell, Master."
Bowing to the other party, Zhou Zekai turned and left. He knew that if this master really loved Zhou Zekai, how could he return home without leaving a single word, and let Zhou Zekai go missing in the sea
After leaving the door, Zhou Zekai saw his wife with a stiff smile on her face, smiled and nodded at her, and then left.
The snow in the United States has stopped today, but the snow on the road is very thick. This place is no different from China, and there are people everywhere. Walking on the snow thicker than ankles, the creaking sound makes Zhou Zekai feel a little happy. Now he can't wait to go back to China, to see his relatives, to see Ai Yuan, and also, his daughter who went abroad less than half a year after she was born.
I don't know if my daughter looks cute or not, if she looks like him.
Just as Zhou Zekai was walking on the way home, he heard shouts behind him and the sound of running fast.
"Senior Brother! Senior Brother!!!"
He stopped, turned around, and looked at Xu Miaoyun who wasn't even wearing a coat. Zhou Zekai said with a smile on his face.
"Junior Sister, are you here to see Senior Brother off for the last time?"
When he returned to the country, the Xu family might not come back to see him off, but Zhou Zekai felt relatively indifferent at the moment.
"... Brother."
Looking at the tall and handsome man in front of him, and thinking about what his father said before, Xu Miaoyun suddenly had tears in his eyes, and said unwillingly.
"Brother, father said that you wanted to return to China because you received a letter from your wife's family, right?"
Could it be that in senior brother's heart, she is not as good as the wife at home
"Well, that's true. Ai Yuan said that the end of the new year is approaching, and the family is very busy. I haven't seen me for three years. My parents miss me very much. Besides, I have almost finished my studies here. Junior sister, I'm going back to China , you should be happy for Senior Brother."
Zhou Zekai was calm about the girl in front of him, and knew that Xu Miaoyun had long been educated by Xu Liming, but in this period, even if the times are gradually opening up, it is not good for a girl like her to chase after a big man of.
Or maybe, what is not available is the best.
In the previous plot, Zhou Zekai confessed his love to this girl, and ended up with such a fate. Now looking at Xu Miaoyun who was in tears, Zhou Zekai didn't feel any fluctuations in his heart.
"Then, senior brother, are you not coming back?"
Looking at the person in front of her expectantly, Xu Miaoyun didn't know what kind of answer she wanted to come up with. Obviously, her father had already said that it was absolutely impossible for the two of them.
"Yes, when I return to China, I want to return to the place where I was born and raised. How good is it outside? After all, it is not my home. I still want to go home and take root."
Nodding his head, Zhou Zekai actually didn't want to say anything to the person in front of him, because no matter how much he said, it would be useless.
"Junior Sister, the weather is so gloomy and cold, and you're wearing such thin clothes, you'd better go home, I'm going home too."
Hearing Zhou Zekai say such words, Xu Miaoyun really could tell that Zhou Zekai was cruel, but even so, after seeing Zhou Zekai turn around, he still couldn't help asking, choked up.
"Brother, have you never loved me a little bit?"
Such a question made Zhou Zekai pause for a moment, then turned his head to look at the crying little girl, and said with a smile.
"Junior Sister, I definitely like you, but that's the love for Junior Sister. Just like what Master said, I already have a wife in my family and gave birth to a daughter for me. I love her and respect her. She is also my future love." You need someone to spend your whole life with, junior sister, you will meet such a person one day, and spend your whole life with you."
After he finished speaking, he turned his head and left, even when he heard the uncontrollable choking and sobbing behind him, Zhou Zekai didn't look back, because these had nothing to do with him anymore.
Ai Yuan is still waiting for him in the country, his heart is very small, as long as he can let Ai Yuan go.
