Zhou's house has a relatively Chinese architectural style, and the backyard is almost in the garden style of five steps, one floor, ten steps and one pavilion.
Although Mr. Zhou came from a mixed military background, he was also from a scholarly family, so he still pays attention to some elegance in his bones. This Zhou residence was originally designed by Zhou Zimo's grandma, according to the style that the old couple liked.
After the old man left, Mr. Zhou had been silently guarding such a house. Fortunately, Zhou Zhenjun and Liang Jing lived directly at home, which made the house more popular.
It has been Mr. Zhou's wish for many years to have more children's laughter in this house. However, Zhou Zimo is not in a hurry at all, but he makes them anxious.
"Originally there was a large field of cosmos. Grandma liked this flower very much. After grandma passed away, grandpa said that the cosmos multiplied too fast and was not very good for other flowers in the yard, so he asked people to dispose of them directly. It’s changed to this large lawn, in fact, everyone also understands that grandpa is probably just afraid of seeing things and thinking about others, so he just followed him.”
Under the balcony in the backyard, Zhou Zimo took Qin Su to stroll around the big backyard of Zhou's house.
The two walked through the winding corridors, and walked to the depths of the yard, while Zhou Zimo explained to Qin Su the flowers and plants in the yard.
"The old chief has a deep affection for the old lady, which is very good."
Qin Su replied lightly.
"It's not about deep affection. If you really say something about deep affection, only Grandpa Mu and Grandma Mu are more appropriate. Grandpa's relationship with grandma is just plain and respectful. Their relationship is very traditional."
Zhou Zimo explained, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, "The feelings in those days were not as complicated as ours now. I heard that grandparents and grandparents also went on blind dates. gone."
"At that time, the environment was more traditional. I was looking forward to that kind of relationship, but I have to sigh, in case..."
"You are a bit pessimistic. Many things actually seem to be quite satisfactory. Don't think too much about it. It's better than anything else. You never dare to take the first step, so how can you reap joy? And happiness? Do you really think that happiness will knock on the door by itself?"
As Zhou Zimo said, he also looked at Qin Su meaningfully.
Qin Su paused for a moment, but didn't reply after all. He turned his head and looked out of the corridor, only to realize that it was quite late, and the sky had already darkened. After thinking for a moment, he said, "It's getting dark very quickly at the moment."
"It's almost time for dinner in a moment, come with me, and I'll take you to my room."
As soon as Zhou Zimo finished speaking, before Qin Su could react, he reached out and grabbed Qin Su, turned around and walked towards the house behind him.
…
The dinner was ready soon, and the family's attitude was naturally very enthusiastic, which made Qin Su feel a little embarrassed.
Qin Su also prepared a gift for Mr. Zhou, which was a collection of calligraphy. The old man was naturally very happy and praised Qin Su for being sensible. Of course, he also brought some health care products to Zhou Zhenjun and Liang Jing. Extremely satisfied.
After dinner, Mr. Zhou also asked Qin Su to play a few games of military chess with him. The two of them were not even close to each other, but they seemed to be having a good time playing chess.
When Zhou Zimo was packing some things upstairs, he could hear the cheerful laughter of the old man downstairs.
The old man hasn't been this happy for a long time. It seems that bringing Qin Su back today is a very correct choice. The whole family likes her very much, so Zhou Zimo is even more motivated at the moment.
I didn't expect that the old man, who is usually long-winded, would like a granddaughter-in-law like Qin Su. Maybe it's because Qin Su has a soldier's temperament in his bones, which makes the old man feel kind.
When it was time to leave, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and the old man got up himself to send the two of them out.
"Grandpa, Mom and Dad, you all go back, it's cold outside."
When walking down the steps in front of the door, Zhou Zimo suddenly turned around, looked at the few people who got up and saw them off, and said in a low voice.
"It's okay, it's just a little wind, how cold can it be? I have seen many cold weather, and now my body is strong, and I can still bear it."
It was Mr. Zhou who answered.
At this moment, while Mr. Zhou was talking, his old eyes also fell on Qin Su who was beside him—
"Qin Su, today is the happiest day grandpa has had these days. If you have time, come home and play chess with grandpa. Grandpa will tell you the story of our revolution back then. You must be very interested Right? Also, you take this bracelet. It was Zimo’s grandmother who told me to leave it to my granddaughter-in-law. After so many years, I can finally give it away with confidence. Don’t be disgusted, come, Zimo, bring it to Qin Su .”
The old man did not know where he got a bracelet. When everyone looked at it, they saw that the bracelet was very crystal clear, and it seemed to be a valuable item.
Mr. Zhou handed the bracelet to Zhou Zimo, and kept gesturing to Zhou Zimo to bring it to Qin Su who was beside him with his eyes.
Qin Su couldn't react at all, Zhou Zimo had already taken it, quickly took Qin Su's hand, and quickly put the bracelet on her white wrist.
It wasn't until a faint warmth hit that Qin Su realized it, and quickly lowered his eyes to look at his wrist, only to see that there was already an exquisite and beautiful bracelet on the wrist, with simple and elegant patterns, she looked at it, but it was quite Appreciate, but—
"Old chief, this gift is too expensive, I can't accept it, Zimo and I just..."
"Since it is given to you, you will take it."
Before she finished speaking, Zhou Zimo interrupted her, holding her wrist while talking, and replied, "We're going back first, grandpa, parents, you should go back and rest early. If you have time We'll be back."
"Okay, be careful on the road. By the way, you are also busy on weekdays, and you probably don't have time to cook. I just prepared a lot of ingredients and good dishes, semi-finished products. Let Sister Wei pack them for you and put them in the car. You go back Cook it and eat it."
Liang Jing said very kindly.
"Qin Su, remember to come home when you have time. Auntie will cook delicious food for you. If Zimo bullies you, just tell me. You and Uncle Zhou will definitely discipline him well."
"Thank you, Aunt Liang. I see. He treats me very well and won't bully me. We're going back first, so you should go back too. It's cold outside. Goodbye!"
