Chapter 318: Chapter 225 Each Fly (Two-in-One Chapter) _2

"Yes, we don’t blame him," Lin Yanqiu also said, walking into the yard to hold onto Liang Xiaohong, letting out a light sigh, "Sister-in-law, don’t be too upset. Everyone is angry now, but once this blows over, it will all be okay."

"Sister-in-law, this is all my fault. I always thought that his studiousness and cold nature wasn’t a bad thing, but who knew it would let him become like this.

But sister-in-law, I am his birth mother. No matter how wrong he is, I still care about him..." Liang Xiaohong couldn’t hold back her sobbing again, "What temperament has he inherited to do such things? How could he even consider becoming a live-in son-in-law? Can you believe it?" she said, looking incredulously towards Zhou Gangping.

Zhou Gangping let out a mournful sigh, "I don’t want to say anything. We’ll just wait and see." Yes, he could confirm that his son was that kind of person, but, saying it once was enough; repeating it, he had neither the courage nor the strength!

Zhou Jingping glanced at the time and patted Zhou Gangping on the shoulder, "Let’s not lose our composure. I need to go now. As for who will win or lose this game, it’s still too early to tell."

Zhou Gangping unconsciously lowered his voice, "Brother, have you received any news?"

"No," Zhou Jingping shook his head, "But, use your brain and you’ll have the answer."

Zhou Gangping was not used to his always upbeat brother acting so inscrutable. It wasn’t until the other man disappeared out the door that he came back to his senses, shaking his head with a smile and grabbing his briefcase to go to work as well.

Liang Xiaohong wiped away her tears and looked towards Lin Yanqiu, "Sister-in-law, do I look presentable to meet people like this?"

Lin Yanqiu looked her over and said, "Stay home and rest for a day. It’s not like your job is like theirs; going or not doesn’t make much difference."

By that time, Zhou Xikang had already taken his briefcase and gone downstairs, bidding the two of them farewell before going to work.

In the blink of an eye, only three women were left in the house.

Lin Yanqiu stared at the wall clock, her mind drifting.

When it was nearly eight-thirty, footsteps could finally be heard from outside. Then, Old Master Zhou, Old Madam Zhou, and Zhou Mikang, along with Chuxia, came in, chatting and laughing.

Looking at everyone’s expressions, Lin Yanqiu felt her heart almost stop beating, "How did it go?"

"What else could happen?" Old Madam Zhou glanced at her, "We’ve already gone to their doorstep to ask. How could they have the heart to refuse? Rest assured, even if the Zhou family encounters any trouble, they will stand with us.

Laosan’s wife is already considered a granddaughter of the Jing Family. The recognition ceremony will be held soon, and we’ve invited a bunch of old men and women from our courtyard to witness it. Xiaomi has already arranged for a car to pick up the relatives, and once they arrive, we’ll go over together."

Chuxia still held a grudge against Lin Yanqiu for her previous actions, so upon entering, she simply smiled and greeted her, not bothering to say anything else.

"That’s good, that’s good..." Liang Xiaohong heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, thinking about her son, her heart clenched again, "Dad, Mom, Zhongkang and his dad just had a big fight..."

While Liang Xiaohong was recounting the story to everyone, Lin Yanqiu quietly approached Chuxia, whispering, "Chuxia, I need to talk to you. Can you come to the bedroom with me?"

"Fine." After all, this woman was her mother-in-law, and even if Chuxia wasn’t willing, she didn’t want to break things off with her just yet. Moreover, she was curious to hear what the other was going to say.

But as soon as she stood up, Zhou Mikang pulled her back, "Where are you going?"

Chuxia was exasperated. Couldn’t you see? Your mother wants to talk to me privately. What else could I be going to do?

"Xiaomi, I have something to talk to Chuxia about," Lin Yanqiu sighed softly, "Could you trust me just this once, please? Later, you can ask Chuxia what I’ve said. If you think what I said isn’t right, from now on you can ignore me, okay?"

Zhou Mikang, still holding onto Chuxia’s hand, didn’t let go, "Chuxia, I’ve said before, no one can force you to do anything. If you want to go, go; if you don’t, then don’t. I’ve got this."

Lin Yanqiu immediately turned to stone—son, can you give your mother some face? Aren’t you blatantly telling your wife that she doesn’t need to listen to her mother, and that she should just do whatever she wants...

Feeling respected was truly wonderful! Chuxia smiled at him, "I’ll come out with Mom in a bit, it won’t delay anything." She then pulled up the still dazed Lin Yanqiu, "Mom, let’s go."

After sitting down in the room, Lin Yanqiu seemed a bit sheepish, "Chuxia, do you dislike me now?"

"A little," Chuxia admitted honestly.
