The world of film and television begins from childhood

Qiao Chunyan emphasized: "Even if you can think of it, you can't find anyone to guarantee it for you. With so much money, who would dare to take the risk?"

"Yes, this is not just a few dollars or tens of dollars, this is hundreds or even thousands of dollars, who dares to guarantee it?"

The others were also very moved. They thought they understood Zhou Chen's method and knew it was impossible to copy it, so they didn't ask any more questions.

Zheng Juan lowered her head and said nothing. She was Zhou Chen's wife, so she naturally knew what the real situation was.

Seeing that Zhou Chen just made up an excuse and actually fooled everyone, they felt surprised and proud.

It’s still her man who is capable. All the people here combined are not as capable as her man.

Under the intentional guidance of Qiao Chunyan and Cao Debao, Wu Qian and the others talked about the house again.

Wu Qian said with great envy: "Chun Yan, I really envy you. Look at your house, it has a kitchen, a toilet, heating, gas, and running water. You don't have to carry water or pour swill. You don't have to worry about freezing when you go to the toilet in winter, and there's no smell in summer. It's really infuriating to compare yourself to others."

Qiao Chunyan said, "What's good about it? Our house is far inferior to my brother's."

"That's different. Bingkun bought his house with money, but your house was allocated by your company. You didn't spend a penny."

"What? My brother's house is still his, with the property certificate. My house is not mine. Who knows if I get fired one day, I'll lose the house too."

"Come on, Chunyan, stop showing off. It's okay for us to be envious. I am envious, but I dare not even hope for such conditions."

Wu Qian sat up straight and complained, "Originally, we had Bingkun's help and could live in his house. I thought our lives would be better, but who would have thought that his brother-in-law would have cancer."

When Xiao Guoqing heard Wu Qian say this, he immediately became angry and glared at her.

But Wu Qian was not afraid of him at all. Instead, she said, "What are you looking at? Am I wrong? Your brother-in-law was treated for a disease, and you lent money to your sister. In the end, the disease was not cured, and the money was spent. What's worse is that his brother-in-law's unit took away the house right after he left. In the end, his sister had to take the children back to her parents' home. But you all know what their family situation is. We like to act big and get his sister to live in our house."

"Originally, our family of three was fine living in Bingkun's house, but then his eldest sister and her family of three came over, and the six of us were squeezed together. The food and drinks..."

Xiao Guoqing couldn't bear it any longer, so he picked up something nearby and threw it directly at Wu Qian.

"Just shut up, aren't you ashamed?"

"You dare to hit me."

"I hit you, what's wrong?"

Instantly, the room was in chaos until Qiao Chunyan slammed the table and shouted, "Guoqing, control your bad temper. It's New Year's Day, what are you doing?"

After some persuasion and coaxing, several people finally managed to persuade Xiao Guoqing and Wu Qian to stop.

Seeing this, Zhou Chen felt annoyed and didn't want to stay any longer, so he stood up.

"Chunyan, Debao, I'm sorry. We have an appointment to take a family photo this afternoon. It's getting late now, so we'll go back first."

"what?"

Qiao Chunyan and the others all stood up: "Brother, what family photo do you want? Why didn't my godmother mention it? Besides, the photo studio isn't open yet."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "My dad decided on this before the New Year. I asked my former colleagues to help me and asked them to take the photo. They are free today. If you don't believe me, you can ask Juan'er."

Although Zheng Juan didn't know what was going on, she naturally wouldn't refute her man.

"Yes, Chunyan, our family has already made an agreement."

Cao Debao asked: "Bingkun, why are you in such a hurry, is it because what we said is not nice?"

"No, no, it's really something."

Zhou Chen's mouth twitched. You do have some self-awareness.

"Guoqing, Ganchao, Wu Qian, Yu Hong, Xiangyang, have fun here. I'll look for you when I have time. We're leaving now."

"Wait, Bingkun, I'll go with you."

Tang Xiangyang stood up quickly, and then said to Cao Debao with an apologetic look on his face: "Debao, I'm so sorry, my parents are not in good health, and they can't be away from others for too long. I have to go back to take care of them."

"Xiangyang, you have to leave anyway, why don't you stay for a while?"

"No, no, next time. I'll treat you next time."

Several people tried their best to keep him, but Zhou Chen still left with Zheng Juan and Tang Xiangyang.

After seeing Zhou Chen and the other two off, Cao Debao and Qiao Chunyan both looked unhappy.

"I told you, they are college students now and they don't think highly of us, but you still rushed to invite them. Now you see, they don't even bother to listen to us. They are no longer the same as us."

Qiao Chunyan scolded impatiently: "You are just an afterthought, but why is my brother like this? He left after sitting for such a short time."

Cao Debao snorted, "I think taking a family photo is just an excuse. He doesn't think highly of us. It was the same before and it is the same now. He is just..."

"Squeak."

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Zhou Chen said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I forgot to take Zheng Juan's gloves."

As he spoke, he picked up the gloves from the sofa next to Cao Debao, waved his hand and left under the astonished gazes of several people.

This confused everyone in the room. After a long while, Qiao Chunyan asked weakly, "My brother probably didn't hear what I said just now, right?"

Cao Debao blushed and shouted, "So what if they heard me? Since I dare to say it, I am not afraid of being heard. Besides, I didn't say anything wrong. Did I say anything wrong?"

Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao both sneered at his timid appearance.

Xiao Guoqing stood up quickly: "Chunyan, Debao, I'm leaving first, Wu Qian, are you going or not?"

Qiao Chunyan got anxious when she heard this: "Guoqing, what are you doing? Why are you in such a hurry to leave? You don't have anything to do, and there are only a few of us left. If you leave, this party will really be over."

Cao Debao also advised: "Yes, Guoqing, we are the only ones left in Jichun now, we can't be divided anymore."

After being persuaded by several people and Wu Qian's temper, Xiao Guoqing finally failed to leave.

Zhou Chen said goodbye to Tang Xiangyang. They agreed to meet again after arriving in Yanjing, and then they parted ways.

While riding his bicycle, he recalled what he had just heard and felt like laughing.

To be honest, if it were in the past, he would definitely not let it go if he heard Cao Debao talking about him behind his back.

But he was really not angry just now, or he could be said to be too disdainful to be angry. He no longer took Cao Debao seriously, so he completely ignored what he said and didn't even bother to be angry.

Ignore, completely ignore.

"Juan'er, now you understand why I don't want to attend their party, right?"

"Seeing that our family is getting better and better, they will inevitably have some thoughts in their hearts. What can we say in that kind of occasion? Just a few words may make them feel uncomfortable, but I can't make myself feel uncomfortable, so not attending is the best choice."

This time, Zheng Juan did not try to persuade or refute. She saw what had just happened clearly. Although she did not point fingers at them, she implicated them in everything she said.

Not to mention that Zhou Chen felt uncomfortable, even she felt uncomfortable.

"Okay, I won't advise you anymore. I'll just listen to whatever you say."

"I'm just talking about this matter. You still have to talk about other things. I'm not a god. It's impossible for me to be right about everything."

"In my eyes, you are more powerful than gods."

"Haha, Juan'er, you are getting better and better at making me happy now."

…………

On the fourth day of the New Year, Zhou Chen took Zheng Juan, Zhou Rui and Zhou Cong to the provincial compound to visit Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen.

"Oh, I've been looking forward to it for so long, and finally my grandson is here."

As soon as Zhou Chen and the others entered the room, Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen each took Zhou Rui and Zhou Cong in their arms, and they were in great pain.

Over the years, the two of them have been basically lonely during the holidays. Although there are people who come to visit them, they are basically just exchanges of gifts, and there are also a few younger generations.

Zhou Chen's family is different. The two younger ones are their adopted grandchildren. Although they are not their biological grandchildren, they have seen them more times than their biological grandchildren.

Only when Zhou Chen's family of four came could they feel reunited and not feel lonely.

"Bingkun, I'm telling you, it's already the fourth day of the New Year and you just came. You've been keeping us waiting for so long."

Ma Shouchang touched Zhou Rui's head and complained to Zhou Chen with dissatisfaction, accusing him of coming too late.

Qu Xiuzhen hugged Zhou Cong and followed suit: "Old Ma is right, it's too late, and I've told you so many times, come if you want to, and bring so many things, next time you bring things, I'll make you stand outside."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Uncle Ma, Aunt Qu, you can't blame me. Nowadays, people have to bring things even if they go to their parents' house."

"You boy."

Ma Shouchang smiled and pointed at Zhou Chen.

After a while, Qu Xiuzhen asked the nanny to cook, and then asked Zhou Chen: "Bingkun, when does your school start? When do you plan to return to Yanjing?"

"We plan to leave on the tenth."

"Oh, it's still early."

"........."

After having lunch at the home of Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen, Zhou Chen did not leave in a hurry, but played chess with Ma Shouchang, while Qu Xiuzhen and Zheng Juan took their children to the yard to play.

Hao family villa.

The Hao family was unusually quiet today. After dinner, the couple took a walk outside the door to digest their food. Suddenly, Hao Gaoguan pricked up his ears.

"Hey, where does that child's voice come from?"

There were quite a few children in the provincial compound, but it was not long after lunch, so they should be resting.

Jin Yueji pushed her glasses, looked around, and then pointed to the west: "That's the entrance to Old Ma's house."

Senior official Hao was surprised and asked, "Where did the voice of the child in the old Ma family come from? It seems that there is more than one."

Jin Yueji thought for a moment and said, "It should be someone who came to visit them."

Just then, they suddenly saw two children running towards them, followed by Qu Xiuzhen and a young woman.

"Hey, that kid, why does he look familiar?"

"Yes, if I remember correctly, it seems to be the child that Dongmei brought back before. He is the son of Bingyi's younger brother."

Jin Yueji understood immediately: "I understand, these two children should be Bingyi's brother's two sons. I said that the one who can make Old Qu so happy must be her godchildren."

"My grandson."

Looking at Qu Xiuzhen chasing and playing with the two children, Hao Gaoguan suddenly sighed.

It was not until today that he realized that the reason why his daughter and son-in-law had been married for so many years but still had no children was actually because of his daughter.

At his age, besides achieving his goals, what he wants most is to have offspring, so when he learned that his daughter was infertile, he was actually very sad.

Jin Yueji understood why her husband sighed. When she first learned about this, she felt the same as her husband, or even more sad.

"Come on, let's go inside. You haven't fully recovered yet. It's rare that you have some free time. Take a good rest."

"Ah."

Zhou Chen played two games of chess with Ma Shouchang, and then sat together to watch TV and chat, with Ma Shouchang mainly talking about his stories during the Anti-Japanese War.

Zhou Chen listened very carefully, and from time to time he expressed a few opinions and compliments, which greatly satisfied Ma Shouchang's vanity.

…………

Qu Xiuzhen and Zheng Juan brought Zhou Rui and Zhou Cong, who were sweating profusely, into the house, and fetched water for them to wash their faces and hands, and poured them water to drink.

After finishing her work, Qu Xiuzhen sat down on the sofa, panting.

"I'm old, really old. I can't deny it. It's only been a short time since I started working, and I'm already so tired."

Ma Shouchang joked: "You still think you are the same as before, when you could run dozens of kilometers without complaining of being tired."

Qu Xiuzhen sighed, "Yes, I was really young back then, but now I am really no better, even worse than a child."

"So, I still need to exercise a little in the future."

"I even quit smoking, all for the sake of my health."

Although Qu Xiuzhen is a woman, she has smoked for decades and is an old smoker. However, she has had a severe cough in recent years and has seen a doctor, who advised her to quit smoking.

Of course she didn't want to quit, but for the sake of her health, she endured the discomfort and started to quit smoking.

"Aunt Qu, quitting smoking is good for your health. I have to admire you for that. Also, you should take the medicine I brought you last time on time. I carefully selected those medicines. They are free of toxins. Long-term use is good for your health."

The last time Zhou Chen came, he brought a lot of medicine and nutritional supplements for the old couple.

Ma Shouchang laughed and said, "Old Qu and I have lived for so many years, and we have never seen so many medicines. You brought us so many at once. People who don't know would think we are seriously ill. We said we would give you money, but you didn't want it. How uncomfortable it makes us."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Uncle Ma, you are too polite. You bought so many things for Ruirui and Congcong, and helped me so much in the past. This is nothing. Just take them with peace of mind. I will deliver them to you regularly every few months. Don't save money for me."

"You're going to buy it for us too?" Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen were both shocked.

"Of course. According to you, this is called a long-term battle. You don't have to worry about me. I'm studying in a medical school and working in a hospital. This little medicine is not a problem for me."

"This is my gift to you. If you don't accept it, I won't be able to accept it when you buy things for Ruirui and the others in the future."
