Chapter 259: Chapter 259 True or False First Love 59_1

Zhou Dajiang was actually feeling very uncomfortable in his heart, feeling that Zhang Shifen’s actions were preparations for separation.

"We, we..."

"The big room is for Xiao Yong’s wedding?"

"You and your parents will live in the small room?"

Originally, if Zhou Yong was to get married next year, Zhou Hong’s family might move out, but now, since they hadn’t moved, the old Zhou couple had no way to return.

Zhou Dajiang hummed in acknowledgment, "Well, mom and dad said, next year they..."

"Next year is next year’s matter, and besides, Zhou Yong’s wife is likely to get pregnant soon."

Zhang Shifen looked at Zhou Dajiang with suspicion, "Are you planning to have me take care of the pregnant woman?"

"Forget it, I don’t have the time. I feel that the three of us are living quite well now."

Gu Wei also came over to join the meals and, feeling embarrassed, would often bring things over, which truly enriched the dining table, making everyone eat and drink well.

In terms of eating and drinking, it really was much better than at Zhou Dajiang’s house. Given a choice, Zhang Shifen would prefer the current lifestyle.

"Zhou Dajiang, maintain the current lifestyle."

"I..."

"We’re here, Xiao Na and I occupy a room, and Xiao Xuan has his own world too. He lives in the attic; he can do whatever he wants there,"

"without being scolded by Zhou Yong for making too much noise." Zhang Shifen took a deep breath, "Zhou Dajiang, I truly regret it."

"It’s not like we don’t have a house; so why should we put up with this, why should Xiao Na and Xiao Xuan?"

"We’re doing well now."

"We’re quite adapted to life as a trio."

Although Zhou Dajiang always said he was a man who valued face and wouldn’t live in the woman’s house, as things progressed, Zhou Dajiang’s thoughts could change.

Zhou Dajiang was an honest man, a very quiet person, but the quieter he was, the more sensitive he actually was.

"Rest assured, I won’t live here." Zhou Dajiang’s face was visibly displeased, "Xiao Na will be twenty soon, and when she gets married, what about you two then?"

Zhou Dajiang didn’t continue, but Zhang Shifen understood the implication, "Are you suggesting that once Xiao Na gets married, my son and I won’t be able to stay here anymore?"

"I, I didn’t mean that." Even though that’s what he was thinking, Zhou Dajiang didn’t have the courage to admit it.

Zhou Lina had been listening for a while, "Uncle Zhou, don’t worry."

"No matter what, I won’t end up like Xiao Yong." Humph, Zhou Dajiang wanted to make Zhang Shifen uncomfortable, but that wouldn’t make him comfortable either.

"By the way, Uncle Zhou, when I went out today, I saw Zhou Yong with a girl, and a middle-aged couple, heading to the mall."

"From what they said, it seemed like they were going to buy new clothes for the couple so they could attend the wedding in style. Did Zhou Yong buy anything for you?"

Humph, wasn’t it all about doing everything wholeheartedly for his son Zhou Yong? She wondered how he would feel when he heard this news.

Zhou Dajiang’s first reaction was, of course, "Impossible."

"You, you are sowing discord." Zhou Dajiang felt that Zhou Lina was just that detestable.

Accusing her of sowing discord? Zhou Lina laughed, "No worries, you definitely won’t believe it, no worries."

"Anyway, you’ll find out on the day your son gets married."

"Or maybe you already know, given your son’s nature—he’s not someone who can hide things. Just ask him directly."

Zhou Lina knew that Zhou Dajiang’s heart was in turmoil and offered a suggestion.

"Truth is, whether you ask or not, Zhou Yong has not been sparing in spending on the Luo family."

"These past few years, a large portion of his salary is estimated to have been spent on them."

"How could that be possible..." Zhou Dajiang absolutely had confidence in Zhou Yong, "He said he saved the money."

"Just because he says he saved, it doesn’t mean he did. Forget it, I won’t say anymore."

"Even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe me. Actually, you could ask Zhou Hong’s wife, her parental home isn’t far from the Luo Family."

"If you really don’t believe it, you could go and ask around."

Zhou Lina was all kinds of persuasive towards Zhou Dajiang, Zhang Shifen watching on the side knew this girl was taking revenge for her.

Despite repeatedly comforting himself that it was all Zhou Lina’s instigation, he could not help but feel anxious.

Feeling helpless, Zhou Dajiang left Zhou Lina’s home and decided to inquire about the situation at the Luo Family after some thought.

He originally thought it would be difficult to find out anything, but unexpectedly, he easily learned quite a bit of information.

Especially what Zhou Lina had said, it was not instigation at all, but truth-telling, or rather, it was already an understatement.

It wasn’t just about helping the Luo Family buy clothes, he had also bought clothes for Luo Lili’s younger brothers and sisters.

And he even found out that Zhou Yong would bring meat to the Luo Family every month for dinner.

Zhou Dajiang kept reassuring himself, saying that Zhou Yong was doing this to get a wife, but he still felt uncomfortable in his heart.

To buy clothes at the store, besides money, one also needed Cloth Coupons, and Zhou Yong’s Cloth Coupons were very likely obtained by trading with money.

Zhou Dajiang didn’t even know how he got away from there back home, he was in a daze all the way, and he really thought about a lot.

Zhou Lina would bring up this matter, most likely because of what he had said to her, but he also had to thank her, otherwise, he would have had no idea about all these things.

On the other hand, Zhou Hong’s wife, even though her family lived nearby, didn’t know at the beginning, could it be that she still didn’t know later?

Yet over these days, he hadn’t heard her mention anything, and perhaps they all knew about this within their circle and just didn’t let him know, continuously laughing at him.

When Zhou Yong returned home and saw his father’s figure, he rushed over, "Dad, I looked at the menu for the banquet."

"There’s no fish, Lili’s family likes fish."

"And about the meat, for five tables of people, only two pounds of meat, isn’t that a little too little?"

"Luo Lili’s father suggested, if possible, to have a braised pork dish on each table."

Zhou Dajiang listened to Zhou Yong’s complaints, it was either Luo Lili’s idea, her mom’s idea, or her dad’s idea, or her siblings’ opinions.

There was no consideration for Zhou Dajiang’s opinion, his own father, "I don’t have money, if you have money, then pay for it yourself."

"When your brother got married, this was the standard. If you feel this standard isn’t good enough for you, or the Luo Family keeps complaining..."

"Never mind, whoever has objections can pay." Zhou Dajiang promptly turned and went back to his room to rest.

What’s going on? Zhou Yong was also stunned, what happened, why was it like this?

"Dad, I don’t have money," Zhou Yong still didn’t understand what had happened, but what he did know was that he definitely needed to produce the money no matter what.

No money? Hearing this, Zhou Dajiang thought Zhou Yong’s attitude seemed entitled.

"You don’t have money?"

"What about your savings? Bring them out."

"After all, it’s your big life event, don’t pinch pennies when you want your wedding to look good."

"You remember your in-laws, buying new clothes for your brother-in-law and sister-in-law, and you say you have no money."

Zhou Dajiang said his piece and returned to his room without caring for the expression on Zhou Yong’s face afterward.

Zhou Yong’s expression changed drastically, not understanding how Zhou Dajiang could know about this.

For this reason, he even took a day off on a workday to take them shopping, just to avoid being seen by others.

Was it still discovered? Zhou Yong couldn’t help but start to worry, uncertain of how Zhou Dajiang would reprimand him.
