A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 1235 It's your turn to be filial! (Please subscribe!)

"Director Zhou, are you waiting for Dean Zheng?"

A nurse was coming out of the clinic after get off work and saw Hua Shier smoking next to a car. She walked up to him and greeted him enthusiastically.

Regarding the title of factory director, although the Red Star Group was established, Hua Twelve still allowed others to call him that. What era is this? Titles like chairman are not popular.

Although Hua Twelve is not afraid of trouble, it is always better to have less trouble.

Facing the enthusiastic young nurse, he smiled and nodded as a response.

It’s not that he is arrogant, it’s mainly because the young nurse is young and pretty, and without Zheng Juan around, it would have a bad impact if he said too much.

Seeing that Hua Twelve had no intention of talking, the young nurse left tactfully.

After a while, Zheng Juan, wearing a down jacket, came out. When she saw Hua Twelve, she immediately smiled happily and walked up to him and asked:

"Why don't you go in? It's so cold standing outside."

Hua Twelve smiled and said, "I can't get used to the smell of disinfectant in there. Besides, you don't know me yet. I can stand the cold very well!"

He said as he glanced at the down jacket on Zheng Juan;
"How does this dress look like?"

Down jackets are now available in China. In 1975, the national mountaineering team climbed Mount Everest for the first time using domestically produced down equipment.

But the one Zheng Juan was wearing was sent by Qiao Chunyan from Hong Kong Island. Now those four have stepped down. This year, a mailing channel has been opened between Hong Kong Island and the mainland. This down jacket is a foreign brand sent by Chunyan. Of course, the brand name was cut off before Chunyan sent it to avoid causing trouble here.

Zheng Juan wore it for the first time today and said happily:

"It's really good, much warmer than a cotton-padded jacket, and the style is also beautiful. The female colleagues in our hospital all asked me where I bought it!"

Hua Twelve nodded:
"That's fine. Tell them not to buy it. Our Red Star Group's clothing factory is planning to start producing down jackets according to the standards of this foreign brand. Next winter, all employees of the group will be given one as work clothes!"

Zheng Juan knew that her husband was setting up a clothing factory this year and smiled faintly:
"Really? Then let me thank you on their behalf!"

Hua Twelve opened the car door and made a gesture of invitation:

"Let's go, I have good news to tell you today!"

Zheng Juan's eyes lit up, but she didn't ask any further questions and got into the car happily.

After both of them got in the car, the driver started the car and drove towards Guangzi Pian. Hua Twelve then handed the two envelopes to Zheng Juan:

"Here are our acceptance letters!"

Zheng Juan was extremely surprised and quickly opened the letter. Although she already knew her college entrance examination score, she couldn't feel at ease until she saw the admission letter for a day.

When she saw the names of the couple clearly written on the two admission letters, Zheng Juan finally put her heart at ease and the smile on her face gradually grew. But suddenly she thought of something, her smile faded, and she asked with some concern:

"But what about our jobs?"

Hua Twelve waved his hand: "Don't worry, I have arranged everything, there will be no problem!"

Zheng Juan nodded. She believed in her man because he had never let her down.

After returning home, Zheng Juan shared the good news with Li Suhua. When the old lady heard that her son and daughter-in-law were admitted to universities in Beijing, she was so excited that tears came to her eyes and she kept praising Hua Twelve for his promising future.

But at dinner time in the evening, Li Suhua looked at her son, opened her mouth, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Hua Twelve looked at him with amusement and asked, "Mom, just tell me what's going on. There's nothing wrong with talking to us!"

Li Suhua smiled awkwardly:
"Okay, Mom just wanted to discuss something with you. Your dad will be back tomorrow, and I want you to go to the station to pick him up. For the past year, you asked Zheng Juan to write the letter. We can't let the relationship between you and your dad become alienated because of that little thing!"

The old lady was never shy when talking to Hua Twelve. She would hit him when necessary and laugh when necessary. But as soon as she talked about other people in the family, her tone became weak because she knew that she had let her youngest son down because of all the bad things that happened last year.

Hua Twelve had a calm expression:
"I was too busy before the New Year. I had meetings every day and couldn't leave!"

"But don't worry, Mom. I'll ask Xiao Chen to pick up Dad at the station tomorrow. The house over there has been cleaned up and can be moved in right away. If he wants to live here, he can live here. If he wants to live over there, he can live over there. It's all up to him!"

Li Suhua couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when Hua Twelve said that he would ask the driver to pick her up, but she still forced a smile, nodded, and then said:
"Your brother and sister are also taking the train tomorrow."

Hua Twelve laughed: "Mom, using a company car for personal purposes is against the rules. My dad is old, so it's okay for me to ask the factory car to pick him up, but my brother and sister are both young and strong."

Li Suhua quickly waved her hands: "That's not what I meant. What I meant was, after your brother and sister come back, you should control your temper a little bit, and let our family celebrate the New Year in harmony, okay?"

Hua Twelve said helplessly: "Mom, you make it sound like I'm looking for trouble!"

Li Suhua slapped Hua Twelve in annoyance:
"Child, when your brother and sister come back, I will have to tell them the same thing. Besides, it's not you who is looking for trouble, but they can't beat you even if they put themselves together!"

This made Hua Twelve laugh:
"They can't argue with me because I am right. They are wrong, so naturally they can't argue with me!"

"Okay, okay, you're the only one who can do this! Hurry and eat!"

Li Suhua picked up a piece of scrambled eggs for Hua Twelve with chopsticks and said, "Mom can't argue with you, shut your mouth quickly!"

Zheng Juan burst out laughing at the side.

The next day, after Hua Twelve finished his meeting and chatted with Qu Xiuzhen, the driver Xiao Chen came back to hand in his task:
"Director, your old man is so stubborn. He refused to get on the bus and took the bus back home. I had no choice but to drive behind him!"

Qu Xiuzhen laughed out loud when she heard this and asked Hua Twelve:

"What? Are you still not talking to your dad?"

"Hey, don't mention it!"

Hua Twelve waved his hands helplessly.

Old Madam Qu stood up and said, "Well, even an honest judge cannot judge family affairs. I will not interrupt you and will go back to my room to drink tea!"

After seeing off Old Lady Qu, Hua Twelve asked Xiao Chen, "Where did my dad go?"

"The old man went back to Guangzi Pian and picked up your mother to go to the building area. Your mother asked me to tell you that she would wait for you to get off work and let you and Dean Zheng go directly to the building!"

Hua Shier didn't want to go at first, but since the old lady had spoken, he pondered for a moment and felt that he had to go. Being admitted to university was a good thing, and he had to let the Zhou family know. Besides, he and Zheng Juan were going to Beijing to study, so someone had to take care of Li Suhua. He immediately asked Xiao Chen to help prepare some gifts and bring them over when he went to the building after get off work.

When it was time to get off work in the evening, Hua Shier picked up Zheng Juan and went to the building area together.

Taking Li Suhua's leg problems into consideration, Hua Shier prepared a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment on the first floor for them.

After knocking on the door, I saw the house was in a commotion. Feng Yue and her two half brothers were running around the house. Zhou Rong, who I hadn't seen for more than a year, was obviously much more haggard. With dark circles under her eyes, she scolded the three younger ones to be quiet.

Apparently, even in this age of free-range children, there is still a lot to worry about with three children.

Zhou Zhigang was sitting in the living room talking to Zhou Bingyi and Feng Huacheng. It was Hao Dongmei who opened the door. When she saw Hua Shier and Zheng Juan, she greeted them warmly.

Zhou Bingyi and Feng Huacheng also stood up: "Bingkuner, Zheng Juan, it's time to get off work!"

Hua Shier and Zheng Juan also responded one by one, and Zheng Juan called out to Zhou Zhigang again:
"Dad, you're back!"

Zhou Zhigang smiled at Zheng Juan: "Oh, you're back!" But everyone could see that Zhou Zhigang and Hua Shier had no intention of paying attention to each other.

Li Suhua walked up to Zhou Zhigang and gave him a punch:

"Say something!"

Zhou Zhigang glanced at Hua Twelve, then said unhappily to Li Suhua:

"Didn't I tell you? Why are you arguing with me?"

Li Suhua was so angry that he scolded his old man again: "You damn old man!"

Although the atmosphere in the room was a bit awkward, no one took the initiative to find fault, so it was barely maintained. However, Hua Shier and Zhou Zhigang ignored each other, which continued until dinner started.

A year later, the Zhou family sat at the same table again. Feng Huacheng picked up the wine glass:

"Dad, big brother, Bingkun, I'm going to toast you a glass of wine, and then I have good news to tell you!"

Zhou Zhigang clinked glasses with him, took a sip, then laughed and asked:

"Am I going to be a grandfather again?"

Zhou Rong on the side immediately said, "Dad, what are you talking about? I'm always worried about these three. I want to die every day. I don't want any more!"

After Feng Huacheng finished drinking, his eyes turned red with excitement, and he choked up and said:
"Dad, big brother, Bingkun, the good news I want to tell you is that the organization has proven my innocence and cleared my name. After the New Year, I will return to Beijing to work again!"

Zhou Zhigang smiled and nodded: "Yes, this is good news!"

Li Suhua also shed tears of joy, happy for her daughter.

Zhou Bingyi also took a sip and raised his glass to Feng Huacheng: "Huacheng, congratulations. Zhou Rong, congratulations on your continued success!"

Hua Shier also said something polite.

Zhou Bingyi said to Zhou Zhigang: "Dad, Mom, I have good news to tell you this year too!"

He took out an envelope and took out an admission letter from it:

"Dad, I took the college entrance examination this year and was admitted to the History Department of Yanjing University in Beijing!"

Zhou Zhigang clapped his hands and said, "Great! Our Zhou family has a college student. The first one is Guang Zi, right? What about Dongmei? Did Dongmei take the college entrance examination?"

Hao Dongmei felt a little embarrassed and a little disappointed:
"Dad, my grades aren't as good as Bingyi's, so I was admitted to Jichun Medical College!"

Zhou Zhigang was even happier: "That's also a college student. He became a doctor right after graduating from medical school. That's great. He has a promising future!"

Feng Huacheng and Zhou Rong both congratulated Zhou Bingyi with mysterious smiles. After congratulating him, Zhou Rong also took out an envelope:
"Dad, I also have good news to tell you. I was admitted to the Chinese Department of Yanjing University in Beijing!"

Zhou Zhigang was so excited that he shed tears:
"Really? That's great. I was wondering when you were little, you and the eldest brother never made me and your mom worry about you. You were always among the top three in the class in academics. Now you've really made it!"

I don't know if it's because the old man is not on good terms with Hua Twelve, but when he said this, he glanced over here intentionally or unintentionally.

Li Suhua couldn't close her mouth with laughter:
"Old man, do you think this is over? Let me tell you a good news. Our old man, Bingkun, has also been admitted to a university in Beijing."

The old lady couldn't remember the name of the school, so she asked Hua Twelve:

"Bingkun, tell your dad what school you got into!"

Hua Shier also took out his admission letter: "It's also from Yenching University, Department of Economics!"

Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong were both surprised. Although they knew that their younger brother was far inferior to his previous one, they did not expect that Zhou Bingkun could be admitted to Yenching University.

Li Suhua said with a smile: "You don't know from outside, our Bingkun is the top scorer in the college entrance examination in Ji S"

When he said this, everyone at the dinner table gasped. Being the top scorer in the college entrance examination was extremely impressive in the past. To put it superstitiously, it was like the god of literature coming down to earth. Zhou Bingkun actually was the top scorer. Neither Zhou Rong nor Zhou Bingyi had expected this.

Zhou Zhigang was pleasantly surprised to hear that all three of his children were admitted to Yenching University. However, seeing Hua Twelve's indifferent expression, he put away his smile and nodded:
"It's OK, remember not to be proud!"

Hua Shier was too lazy to respond and simply pretended not to hear it.

Zhou Rong also poured a glass of wine and clinked glasses with Zhou Zhigang.

But then, Zhou Rong said a little embarrassedly:

"Huacheng has been transferred back to work at the Beijing Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and I'm going to Yanjing to study, but there's a problem here."

Zhou Zhigang immediately became concerned about his daughter's situation: "What's going on? Tell Dad!"

Zhou Bingyi also nodded; "Yes, Zhou Rong, we are all family. Tell me if you have any difficulties and I will see if I can help you!"

Zhou Rong glanced at Zheng Juan and then said:
"It's about the three children. I'm studying in Beijing, so I can't take care of them. I thought before that I could just leave them at home with mom and Bingkun helping to take care of them, so I can rest assured. Now Bingkun has been admitted to Yanda, so you, Zheng Juan, will have to work harder."

Zheng Juan didn't say anything and didn't respond.

Zhou Zhigang looked at his daughter-in-law, then at Zhou Rong, and was about to speak, but at this time Hua Twelve smiled and said:
"This is not okay."

Zhou Zhigang's daughter-serving temper came up again, with a stern face and glaring eyes:
"Why not? You two don't have any children. What's wrong with Zheng Juan helping to take care of them?"

Hua Twelve was too lazy to argue with him and took out another admission letter:

"Before I finished speaking, Zheng Juan was admitted to Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine!"

As he said that, he slammed the admission letter on the table and wanted Zheng Juan to take care of Zhou Rong's child. What a pipe dream!

Zhou Rong looked unconvinced: "Impossible, how could Zheng Juan be admitted to university? Didn't she not even go to elementary school?"

As she spoke, she reached out and took the admission letter and began to read it carefully.

Seeing Zheng Juan's face was not looking good, Hua Twelve said calmly:
"Education doesn't prove anything. Although Zheng Juan didn't go to primary school, she has studied hard in recent years. I dare say her grades are no worse than any of you!"

Hua Twelve continued:
"It just so happens that I have something to discuss with you today. Zheng Juan and I are both going to Beijing to go to school. Mom is in poor health and needs someone to take care of her. Zheng Juan and I have taken care of her for so many years. Now it's time for you, Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong, to fulfill your filial duties. You two should discuss who will stay to take care of Mom!"

The dinner table suddenly became quiet.

You have to know that this era is not like the later times, where if you have money you can rent a house in the capital and place your elderly nearby.

Nowadays, you need a letter of introduction to take a bus. Without a Beijing hukou, it is impossible to take Li Suhua to Beijing and take care of her nearby.

The only option is for someone to stay and take care of Mom.

Hua Twelve looked at the people with different expressions and laughed:
"Zhou Rong, I think you should stay. You have three children to take care of. If you stay, you can take care of the children and our mother as well!"

Zhou Rong was immediately furious: "No, this is my chance to change my fate, I must go to this university"

Seeing his daughter like this, Zhou Zhigang opened his mouth, and a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes.
Thanks to: 08a, Brother Xiao Xiaohu in the Demon World for the reward, and thanks to the brothers who voted for monthly votes and recommendation votes, thank you very much.
