Chapter 27 Between Relatives
According to the rules, there is no reason for the elders to welcome the younger ones, but today Zhou Qunli went to Zhou Yuan for something, so she couldn't care less about being reserved.
Now the industries managed by Zhou Yuan are all operating very well, and the overseas business opened up in the past ten years is even more prosperous.
But Zhou Qunli's side is not going well. She wants to give up the independent accounting of her own property and return to the Zhou Group. She has approached Zhou Yuan countless times, but Zhou Yuan just doesn't accept it.
Seeing that her nephew was booming but she couldn't get a share of the pie, Zhou Qunli was anxious and had nothing to do.
In fact, not to mention looking for Zhou Yuan for something, but to say that it is not so easy to stop him during the holidays. Sometimes Zhou Qunli came to her father in person to propose marriage to Zhou Yuan. It's really annoying that the old man just spoils this grandson blindly.
She thinks this way, if she can't pull Zhou Yuan to her side, then she can only stand on the opposite side, but that is the last resort, after all, this nephew is still very capable, if he can be used by her , of course the best.
Her own two sons and daughters are still young, and no matter whether it is brains, skills or endurance, they are useless, and they will definitely not be able to compete with this nephew.
Seeing Zhou Qunli and Zhao Ping approaching, Zhou Yuan only slightly nodded to Zhao Ping, and just called Zhou Qunli aunt, without any expression on his face.
Zhao Ping felt sour in her heart, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Zhou Qunli frowned: "Xiao Yuan, why don't you call your mother when you're so rude?"
Zhou Yuan glanced at her and said, "I still have something to do, so I'll go ahead." This aunt seemed to have a good relationship with his mother at the time, but she put a lot of effort into Zhao Ping's entry. How could Zhou Yuan He still has a good impression of her, but luckily at that time, his grandfather stopped him repeatedly and never acknowledged the woman his son raised outside. Zhou Yuan only had some affection for his grandfather in his heart. For others, after his mother died, his father took the woman home. The family of four is harmonious and beautiful. It seems that the second uncle and the third aunt both took advantage of their father and agreed. Now that they want to get benefits from him, Zhou Yuan feels that he is not so good.
It was a bit unpleasant for the two women to be left there, but they didn't dare to do anything to him, because they couldn't be provoked.
The living room was very lively at this time. Mr. Zhou was sitting on the sofa and talking to Zhou Yuan’s second uncle, Zhou Qunhai, while leaning on his crutches. Zhou Qunhai’s sons and daughters were all sitting upright beside him. When Zhou Yuan came in, they all stood up and called out. Big brother.
Zhou Yuan nodded, called "Second Uncle" to Zhou Qunhai, walked up to his grandfather and sat down, took out a wooden box wrapped in red cloth, and smiled at the old man, "Grandpa, this is a gift from me."
Zhou Qinyuan put down his crutches, took the box, and untied the red cloth. Inside was a hardwood box of cochinchina rosewood. When he opened the box, he found a set of four treasures of the study. This is the fifth set he has given him as a gift from the Four Treasures of the Study. The difference this time is that this box is especially precious and exquisite.
Zhou Qinyuan rubbed the box and nodded with a smile: "The Four Treasures of the Study are nothing but the box is so delicately made."
Zhou Yuan said with a smile: "I made this box for my grandpa myself. I am clumsy. It took me almost a year to make it. As long as grandpa likes it. You see, although the wood is not expensive, the patterns on it are fairy Flowers for birthday wishes, I hope grandpa will have a longer life than Nanshan."
Zhou Qinyuan couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear with a smile, his beard was up and down, and the wrinkles on his face were stretched out. He looked at the children and grandchildren around him, which meant, look, I always say that I am biased , do you have the heart?He went on to say: "Okay, okay, wood is nothing, it is a waste if it is so precious, it is really rare for you to have this kind of heart. Hehe, but..." As soon as the subject changed, his expression suddenly became serious, "All these Is it a small matter, or your lifelong event? When will you bring me a granddaughter-in-law back?"
Zhou Qunhai, Zhou Qunli, and Zhao Ping saw that they had sent so many things, the old man just let them go to the warehouse without saying anything, Zhou Yuan just got such a broken box, it was only worth a few dollars, it fit him like that Mind?It can be seen that it is eccentric.
But these are eccentric grandchildren, they are Zhou Yuan's elders, so it's not easy to show it face to face.
Zhou Yuan laughed and changed the subject of his grandfather's concern. When he mentioned the incident of being kidnapped a while ago, the old man really cared more about his grandson's health. He hurriedly asked the family doctor to check him in person. Take a look and see if it's really all right.
Zhou Yuan immediately stood up and jumped twice and said, "It's all over, don't disturb Dr. Gu, his two younger brothers celebrate their birthdays today too." Although Gu Chunfeng is a good old man, Zhou Yuan dare not send him away Go round and round.
When Zhou Qinyuan heard this, he had no choice but to stop mentioning it.
Zhou Qunli tried her best to put a friendly smile on her face and said to her father: "Dad, when it comes to Xiaoyuan's marriage, I have a suitable partner."
Zhou Qinyuan is now the most sensitive and interested in this, so the conversation was turned back. Zhou Yuan frowned and looked at his aunt, but did not speak. This kind of drama has to be staged several times a year, and will it end?Zhou Yuan admires his aunt and uncle very much, and always wants to push their relatives to his side.
Zhou Qinyuan asked which one it was.
Zhou Qunli turned around and took out a wallet from her small purse, took out a photo from it and handed it to Zhou Qinyuan.
Zhou Qinyuan took out the reading glasses from the mirror box under the coffee table and put them on. He put the photo from a distance and looked at it carefully. After looking at it for a while, he smiled: "Why does this girl look familiar to me?"
Zhou Qunli came to the front to look at it together, and replied with a smile, "Why doesn't it look familiar? This is my niece from my mother-in-law and sister-in-law's family, and the granddaughter of Uncle Shen's family. She just came back from London to visit relatives, and I just went to see me two days ago."
Zhou Qinyuan thought for a long time before nodding his head and said: "Yes, I remembered, she is the granddaughter of the old Shen family. She was only so small at that time, but now she has grown up."
Zhou Qunli nodded: "Yes, Dad, look at how well this girl is doing now. She has graduated from a famous university and worked in London for several years, and she is still working in a bank. Don't mention how practical she is. She is a child from everyone who is stable, not to mention The appearance is also first-class."
Zhou Qinyuan nodded while looking at the photo, and turned around to ask how Zhou Yuan was doing.
Zhou Yuan happened to see two nannies approaching with his second uncle's grandchildren in their arms, and walked towards them a few steps, looking as if they wanted to tease the children.
Two nannies, one younger and the other older, are middle-aged women in their 40s. Each of them holds a child in their arms. The boy is 5 years old and the girl is 3 years old. They are both children of Zhou Yuan's cousin Zhou Hang. Cousin Zhou Lan's son is already in elementary school, but he didn't come with him because school started after the summer vacation.
Zhou Yuan's second uncle has a son and a daughter, and now he has grandchildren and grandsons, so he is considered a lucky person.
It's just that when Zhou Yuan passed by, the two nannies looked at Zhou Yuan in a state of shock, and after a while they found their tongues and said, "Hi, young master."
The reason why the nannies are so frightened is because they have been looking after the children at Zhou Yuan’s second uncle’s house for several years as nannies, and these two children have also been to S City twice, and Zhou Yuan was scared to cry every time. He hasn’t left yet Recently, the child cried out in fright, the cry was heart-piercing, so the nanny was so impressed with Zhou Yuan that she never hugged the child to him.
And Zhou Yuan is not a child-loving person, he usually turns his eyes away after just a few glances, with no expression on his face, let alone holding a child.
Children are the most sensitive beings. They can feel whether someone treats them well or badly without speaking. A child who has just learned to speak has no other way of expressing it except crying.
Now Zhou Yuan walked towards them again, although the expression on his face had softened a lot, it was still scary enough for a child, so the two children tightly grasped the nanny's clothes and pouted their mouths, almost crying.
Just before they cried, Zhou Yuan suddenly turned his head and said to his grandfather, "Grandpa, I'll go out for a while, and I'll be right back."
Zhou Qunli was originally proposing marriage to Zhou Yuan, but seeing that Zhou Yuan ignored him, she felt angry, so she had to temporarily put the photo back.Normally, if she wanted to find Zhou Yuan, she would never be able to find it. Finally, she wanted to mention it again on her father's birthday. This nephew was as shameless as always.
Zhou Qinyuan stroked his white beard and said, "It seems that Xiao Yuan doesn't like this family very much, so let's find another way."
Zhou Qunli sneered slightly and said: "Dad, look, not to mention that my second brother's family has grandchildren, even I have grandchildren who are ten years younger than my eldest brother, but where is Xiaoyuan's child? Aren't you the most Do you want him to give birth to a successor for the Zhou family? He never gets married, so you can wait for him all his life?"
Zhou Qunhai also echoed from the side: "Yes, Dad, no matter how capable Xiaoyuan is, it's always a pity not to have children, isn't it? My elder brother doesn't care about him, you can't always let him go."
The topics of the three people were all about Zhou Yuan, and Zhao Ping next to her was sent to the Antarctic. It was cold, and her two sons were both in their thirties, so no one brought up this issue, as if Those two real young men are not from the Zhou family.
Thinking of her two sons, Zhao Ping was a little anxious. Why didn't they come? It was almost 10 o'clock, and they kept lingering in front of the old man, almost forgotten by him, but these two sons were still afraid of the old man. Don't dare to come often.
Such words seem to be even less filial to Zhou Yuan.
Thinking of Zhou Yuan, Zhao Ping felt a pain in her stomach like an electric shock. She was so angry that her two sons were being suppressed by Zhou Yuan, and it seemed that they would never be able to get ahead.
