Zhou Shuren felt sorry for her and, at the same time, admired Zhulan from the bottom of his heart. When eating with relatives, she didn’t show any sign of dislike. She endured the meal without showing any disgust and even engaged in post-meal conversations. He couldn’t even come close to Zhulan’s level. He got nauseated from eating the same dishes for over ten days. But at the men’s table, they could drink, and as long as the food had some meaning, nobody would serve the food to others. He reached out and held Zhulan’s hand, saying, “I shouldn’t laugh. It’s all because of me. Are you taking it out on me?”
Zhulan withdrew her hands and said, “Don’t take advantage of this opportunity. Besides, it’s all for you. Don’t you also do it for this family? I can’t help you with other things. Small things are nothing.”
She was used to it in modern times, and it was never possible to get what she wanted in socializing!
Zhou Shuren gradually became more courageous and changed his hands to hug Zhulan’s waist, “But I feel bad.”
Zhulan let her gaze wander to Zhou Shuren’s hands. This guy sure knows how to take the opportunity to flirt with her. However, having someone care about her made her feel happy. In the modern world, whatever she did was expected, and her parents wouldn’t feel sorry for her because she had enjoyed the privileges her family provided. She had an obligation to work hard to give back to the company.
In ancient times, she and Zhou Shuren worked together to understand each other better. They cared for and supported each other. Zhulan’s hand, which was currently resting on Zhou Shuren’s waist, didn’t give his soft flesh a pinch and twist. She’d let him off easy for today!
Zhou Shuren was distracted and felt that Zhulan was not moving. His two paws became stronger and brought Zhulan into his arms!
Zhulan rolled her eyes in her heart but didn’t break away!
After breakfast the next day, she waited for more than an hour before going to her eldest daughter Xuemei’s house. Zhulan took the children at home to play with her wàisūnzi and wàisūnnǚ1 and did not come out of the bedroom until dinner was served.
Zhulan saw that besides the eight dishes on the table, there were two more dishes than yesterday. Moreover, it looked like they were bought from the restaurant, and they were all her favorites. “Why are there two more dishes?”
The two new dishes that were added were mutton dishes. Two mutton dishes were quite expensive!
Xuemei glanced at her father who was very satisfied with the food. Who would have thought that her father came over to order food so late at night? Seeing the joy on her mother’s face, she knew it was for her. Her father really hurt her to the core. She couldn’t help but touch her purse. There was a tael of silver given by her father in it. “Dad came here especially at night to add more. Do you like these two dishes?”
She had initially been delighted by her dad’s thoughtfulness in giving her the silver, but reality hit her too quickly. Her dad was doing all this for her mom, and she should have known that a long time ago. Her mom occupied every corner of her dad’s heart, and they, the children, were just on the periphery. These two pieces of silver were not given in vain. She looked at her dad, who turned to look at her as soon as he heard her voice. She understood that her dad wanted her to say some kind words about him!
It could be a lie to say that Zhulan was not moved. She had very few opportunities to eat mutton. Zhou Shuren actually knew that she liked mutton, “I like it with all my heart.”
Xuemei, knowing her mom was touched, said, “Mom, in our family, you’re the first in Dad’s heart. He may not say it aloud, but he always keeps you in his thoughts.”
Zhulan, “…….”
She finally understood that the eldest daughter had accepted Zhou Shuren’s bribe, and the eldest daughter didn’t know enough about her fake father. Zhou Shuren really didn’t pay in silence. He was someone who definitely will let you know what he has done. Even if Zhou Shuren didn’t say it himself, he would let others do it for him. He was very clever!
Zhou Shuren frowned. The eldest daughter couldn’t speak, so he wished he could express his feelings every day. He lost two taels of silver, but he had known it would be two hundred coins!
The whole family was satisfied with the food on the table because the famous dishes of the six-course restaurant were no different from going to the restaurant. Boss Zhou and Second Zhou were also happy that their mèifū and mèimèi2 took them seriously. Although they borrowed their mother’s favor, their mèimèi and mèifū also have their heart!
On the way back, Zhou Shuren found his grandchildren annoying. They had clung to Zhulan when they arrived, but he couldn’t have them around when he wanted to express his feelings. He promptly sent them away.
Zhulan looked up at the sky, glancing at her family members who had been trained by Zhou Shuren. With just a single glance, Zhou Shuren sent them all away!
Zhou Shuren and Zhulan walked back. Zhou Shuren pressed his paws to hold hands and regretted that it was ancient times. “Shall we go for a walk near the village?”
Zhulan thought the suggestion was a good one, “Okay.”
The two walked along the road to the entrance of the village, Zhulan saw a carriage at a glance. The curtain was open and Zhulan saw Wang Ru. Wang Ru also saw Zhulan and stopped. Zhulan didn’t expect Wang Ru to stop!
