The world of film and television begins from childhood

For several days after that, Zhou Chen and Luo Yuzhu stayed at home in their own world. They only visited Chen Jinshui once.

Zhou Chen has no parents in this world, so his uncle Chen Jinshui is naturally his closest elder. Although now it is not like in ancient times where a new daughter-in-law has to serve tea or water, etc., the necessary etiquette is still there.

So Zhou Chen naturally had to take Luo Yuzhu to serve tea to Chen Jinshui and his wife.

Although Chen Jinshui agreed to let Zhou Chen and Luo Yuzhu get married, he still had no good feelings towards Luo Yuzhu. These things were dealt with in a perfunctory manner, and he did not communicate much with Luo Yuzhu.

On the other hand, Chen Jinshui's wife, Chen Erli, was like a good person. She took Luo Yuzhu aside to ask about her well-being and talked about some things that women should do after marriage. She told Luo Yuzhu to take good care of her husband and children and live a stable life.

Although Luo Yuzhu didn't get along with Chen Jinshui, she didn't have any aversion to Chen Erli, and the two got along well.

But for Zhou Chen, being able to maintain superficial harmony is already good enough.

In this world, there are only a few families without family conflicts. What's more, Zhou Chen and Chen Jinshui don't live together, so it's really good to be able to maintain superficial harmony.

In the evening, after Zhou Chen and Luo Yuzhu finished their meal, Luo Yuzhu did not clean up immediately, but took out an iron box from the cabinet in the room.

"for you."

Luo Yuzhu threw the iron box in front of Zhou Chen, who asked in surprise, "What's that?"

Luo Yuzhu suppressed her smile and pride, twisted her waist and said, "Open it and take a look."

Looking at Luo Yuzhu's expression, Zhou Chen roughly guessed what it was, but still pretended to be very confused.

"What is this? It's so mysterious."

As he said this, he opened the iron box.

I saw a lot of Mao Zedong banknotes in the iron box, some in small and some in whole, even some in the form of Great Unity. When put together, the number was really quite large.

This time, Zhou Chen estimated that he could get two to three thousand yuan.

This figure surprised Zhou Chen very much. You have to know that it was still the 1980s, and people with an annual income of 10,000 yuan were still rare. For a single woman to save two or three thousand yuan in a few years was really scary.

What's more, Zhou Chen knew Luo Yuzhu's actual situation. Not only did she have to earn money to spend on herself, but sometimes she also had to subsidize her gambling father. Otherwise, she would probably save more.

"Yuzhu, where did you get so much money? Did you earn it all from selling socks?"

Zhou Chen's surprise made Luo Yuzhu very satisfied. She had always been inferior in front of Zhou Chen. Now she was able to express herself in front of Zhou Chen, so she was naturally very happy.

"I made some money from selling socks, and some from selling other things. Anyway, I sold whatever made money in the past few years. If your uncle wasn't always watching me, forcing me to buy goods secretly, I would definitely make more than this."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Then you should thank my uncle. If he hadn't been keeping an eye on you, with your strong character, who knows how much trouble you would have caused. I might even have to go inside to see you when I come back."

"Bullshit."

Luo Yuzhu angrily slapped Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen pushed the iron box back in front of Luo Yuzhu, who quickly said, "This is for you, keep it."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Why are you collecting it? You saved this with great difficulty. Keep it for yourself and buy something for yourself."

"No, we are husband and wife now. If you don't accept my money, do you think my money is dirty?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? You really have a mind of your own. What I mean is that I have money, richer than you think, so..."

But Luo Yuzhu didn't wait for Zhou Chen to finish speaking, and pushed the money in front of Zhou Chen in a forceful manner.

"I don't care. How much money you have is your business. This money is earned by me for both of us. If I don't spend it, I will spend it on you."

Zhou Chen smiled casually and then closed the iron box.

"Okay, I'll take it. This money will be our first living expenses as a couple."

Luo Yuzhu then revealed a happy smile: "Didn't you say that we would buy a big house in the future? Although this money is not enough, I can continue to earn more. In the future, we will live in a big house, a building."

"Okay, no problem at all."

For Zhou Chen, buying a house is just a matter of words, but discussing buying a house with Luo Yuzhu is really a pleasant and happy thing.

"Yuzhu, in a while, the commercial city where we built the small commodity market will be completed and put into use. By then, the roadside markets over there will probably have to be moved there."

When Luo Yuzhu heard this topic, she immediately became excited.

"Is it going to move? People over there have heard about this trade city for a long time. It's said to be very big, with many stalls. Is that true?"

"It's true. If you really count, there are thousands of stalls. Even if Yiwu's market develops further in recent years, such a large trade city is enough."

Luo Yuzhu was very shocked when she heard it was so big. You know, the roadside market there is already crowded with people, but there are only a few hundred stalls at most, and they are of different sizes.

"If it's this big, the booth fee must be very expensive, right?"

"This has not stopped yet. The final price still depends on the situation."

Although Zhou Chen is the boss behind the scenes, he will not make the decision on this price positioning alone. This needs to be based on market research.

He built this commercial city naturally to make money, not for charity.

Luo Yuzhu asked a lot more questions about this issue. Although Zhou Chen would not tell Luo Yuzhu everything, he still had to open some back doors.

"When the trade city opens, I will reserve a few places for you to choose from."

Luo Yuzhu was quite surprised when she heard this and asked, "You don't object to me continuing to set up a stall in the future?"

Zhou Chen shrugged and said, "Why would you object? There is no distinction between high and low when it comes to making money. I know your character. You can't stay at home all the time, so if you want to go out and do business, I won't stop you."

Luo Yuzhu was so moved that she didn't know what to say. In fact, during this period of time, people had been gossiping about her behind her back, saying that she was always in the spotlight and bringing shame to Zhou Chen.

Although she could always ignore it, or even argue with others, she actually cared about it very much in her heart.

She was afraid that Zhou Chen would look at her the same way, but now it seemed that her man was much better than those men outside.

"Husband, you are so kind."

"You are my wife. If I don't treat you well, who else can I treat well?"

…………

Time quickly came to March. When Zhou Chen came home from get off work that day, he found that someone had come to his house.

I thought he was a guest, but when he walked into the room, I found out that he was an acquaintance.

As soon as Luo Yuzhu saw Zhou Chen coming back, she immediately went to greet him.

"They have been here since I came back. You were not at home, so I had to let them in. They came to look for you."

Zhou Chen nodded and said, "Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it."

"Xiaochen, you're back. Your sister-in-law and I have been waiting for you for a while."

It turned out that the people who came to visit were none other than Zhou Chen's only blood brother in this world, Zhou Yong, and his wife Zhao Chunhua.

Zhou Chen asked coldly: "Why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Zhou Yong was not annoyed at all, and said with a friendly smile: "Nothing, I just came to see you and your sister-in-law. Your sister-in-law and I haven't been here once since you got married. This time it's just right to come and see you and get to know your family."

"is it?"

Of course Zhou Chen would not believe what Zhou Yong said. Given the nature of this couple, who would not do anything without profit, there was no way they would come to him if they did not need anything.

"If you have nothing else, you can go back first. Yuzhu and I have something to do later."

Hearing Zhou Chen's intention to drive people away, Zhou Yong's smile became somewhat awkward. However, his sister-in-law Zhao Chunhua was much more natural and she stood up on her own initiative.

"Xiaochen, whatever you and Yuzhu want to do, your elder brother and I will help you. We are brothers, so don't be polite."

"Yes, Xiaochen, your sister-in-law is right." Zhou Yong agreed.

After hearing this, Zhou Chen became more certain of his guess that these two people definitely had something to ask for, and it was no ordinary matter.

"Zhou Yong, Zhao Chunhua, I don't have time to argue with you. I don't care what your purpose is today, but I have already made our relationship clear to you. So if you don't want to hear more unpleasant words later, I advise you to leave quickly."

He was in a good mood today, but after coming back and seeing these two people, his mood naturally became bad.

Zhou Chen's impolite words made Zhou Yong and Zhao Chunhua mentally prepared before coming, but at this moment, they still couldn't control the anger rising in their hearts.

Just thinking about the purpose of this trip and the power Zhou Chen has in this matter, even if they are unhappy, they can only suppress it and continue to smile.

"Xiaochen..."

"Stop, don't call me so familiarly, we are not that familiar with each other."

Zhou Yong had finally prepared the words, but before he could say them out loud, he was blocked by Zhou Chen.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 786: Slap the door, the mud can't be supported by the wall

Zhou Chen's cold attitude made Zhou Yong and Zhao Chunhua look unhappy.

Although they had guessed that Zhou Chen would make things difficult for them before they came, things that didn't happen didn't happen after all; and now, Zhou Chen's attitude was right in front of them, which was completely different from something that was imagined but not happened.

"Xiaochen, I know you're still angry about what happened back then, but you have to know that we had no choice at the time. We had just come from the countryside and were under a lot of pressure. Your sister-in-law didn't have a job, and even eating was a problem, not to mention that we had a child. We..."

"stop."

Zhou Chen interrupted Zhou Yong's complaint again, his face still grim.

"If you came here just to tell me this, then I'm sorry, you are willing to say it, but I am not willing to listen. Now, immediately, take your things and leave my house."

Zhou Yong was furious: "Xiaochen, are you really that heartless? I am your elder brother, your real elder brother, blood is thicker than water."

Zhou Chen smiled: "It really makes me feel extremely disgusted when you say this, but you should also be grateful for this identity. If you didn't have this identity, you might have been lying down and walked out now."

Luo Yuzhu stood behind Zhou Chen and didn't say anything. She didn't know what had happened between Zhou Chen and Zhou Yong, but from Zhou Chen's attitude, she roughly guessed something. It must be that this elder brother had done something wrong to Zhou Chen, which was why Zhou Chen refused to forgive him.

She was not the kind of woman who would persuade others to make peace and everything would be fine. On the contrary, even though she didn't know what had happened, when she thought about how her husband had been bullied, her attitude towards Zhou Yong and his wife changed drastically and she glared at them.

Zhao Chunhua quickly tried to smooth things over: "Xiaochen, don't be angry, don't be angry. Your elder brother and I both realized our mistakes. In fact, we apologized to you a few years ago, but you were angry at the time and didn't forgive us."

Zhou Chen sneered, "Not everything will be forgiven after you apologize. I'm putting my words here. I didn't agree before, and I won't agree now, and I won't agree in the future. There is no love between us. Do you understand?"

These rude and cold words made Zhao Chunhua feel awkward and she didn't know what to say. She could only look to her husband Zhou Yong for help.

When had Zhou Yong ever suffered such humiliation? Even though Zhou Chen rejected them at the beginning, they still used Zhou Chen's name to gain benefits.

It was precisely because he thought of these things that he was able to suppress his anger and not break up with Zhou Chen on the spot.

He is a rational man. Compared with the consequences of breaking up with Zhou Chen, it is obvious that the benefits of having a good relationship with Zhou Chen will be greater.

"Xiaochen, I really know I was wrong. Have you forgotten what our parents said before they left? They asked us to take care of each other and support each other. We are brothers. Even if I have done something wrong, I can't really hurt you, right?"

"Brother is really in trouble now, only you can help us."

Zhou Chen's face was full of mockery and sneer. He went around in circles and said things so harshly, but Zhou Yong still had to speak.

As if he saw that Zhou Chen wanted to refuse, Zhou Yong did not give Zhou Chen a chance and spoke first.

"Our factory's profitability is getting worse and worse, and your sister-in-law is unemployed. We heard that you are now the person in charge of the newly built trade city, so we would like to ask you to help us and get a stall for your sister-in-law after the opening."

When Zhao Chunhua saw Zhou Yong start talking, she immediately looked at Luo Yuzhu.

"Sister-in-law, I've heard from others that you are the sock king of Yiwu. If I set up a stall, you will definitely help me, right?"

Now it was Luo Yuzhu's turn to be confused. What was going on? How did this come to her head?

And what’s going on in this sister-in-law’s head? She wants to set up a stall herself, but she actually wants her help?

Zhou Chen also found it funny, but when he thought about the character of the couple, he didn't find it strange anymore.

In order to monopolize the house and inheritance, they would drive their own younger brother out of the house while their parents' bodies were still warm; later, when their own younger brother became rich, he would come back to the house to acknowledge them as their parents.

Now, for the sake of stalls and making money, it doesn’t seem surprising if they embarrass themselves a little. No, perhaps they have long since stopped caring about their own face.

"Get out of my sight now, immediately."

"Xiaochen..."

"roll!"

Zhou Chen shouted loudly, pointed at the door, and shouted at the frightened Zhou Yong and his wife, "Get lost."

Zhou Yong felt his blood boiling. He took a sudden step to Zhou Chen and started to curse: "You..."

"Snapped!"

There was a slap sound, and Zhou Chen raised his knife and struck. At the same time, he felt unsatisfied, so he kicked Zhou Yong in the chest.

Zhou Yong was caught off guard and was kicked by the force, rolling out of the door and falling into the yard outside.

"Yeah, the boss."

After a brief shock, Zhao Chunhua reacted instantly, rushed to Zhou Yong excitedly, and helped him up.

"Boss, how are you? Are you hurt anywhere?"
