Chapter 224: After the New Year, Zhou Bingkun Visits the Zheng Family

"Haha, really? That's a big deal. This brat didn't tell me earlier, and finally you told me. You see, I won't kick him later. It's great. Bingyi is married, and you are married too, and you're going to be a mother soon. I'm here to celebrate the New Year, and Bingkun is also getting engaged. It's great." Zhou Zhigang said with emotion.

"Yeah, you mentioned these things. I never thought it would happen so quickly, Dad. Otherwise, you shouldn't go out. Our family doesn't need the money you earn anymore. You're old now. Mom and we are worried about you being in such a far place. If you bring it up with the organization, they should agree, right?" Zhou Rong was thinking about what she had talked about with Li Suhua before. Li Suhua said at the time that Zhou Zhigang would not agree. Zhou Rong decided to give it a try.

"I, your father, am old, but I can still contribute to the country. I don't have to do anything there anyway, so you don't have to worry. I plan to work for a few more years and make use of my remaining energy. When I can't work anymore, I will come back to take care of my grandchildren." Zhou Zhigang refused sternly. Zhou Rong also pursed her lips and didn't say anything. It was still Li Suhua who knew Zhou Zhigang well.

Not long after, Cai Xiaoguang and Zhou Bingkun came back, carrying ten kilograms of pork, a few pieces of cloth and some miscellaneous items, which should be the things that Zheng Juan's family was less in need of. After all, these required tickets. Zheng Juan and her family had no formal jobs, and they only occasionally exchanged some tickets on the black market, and most of them were food tickets. So Cai Xiaoguang took Zhou Bingkun to buy some of the things that the Zheng family urgently needed.

"Dad, you're awake now. How was your rest? Are you feeling better?" When Cai Xiaoguang came in carrying some things, he saw Zhou Zhigang sitting on the kang and talking to Zhou Rong, so he asked.

"Ah, I'm awake now. I feel much better. I had a good sleep. The wine you brought is really good. It doesn't give me a headache at all." Zhou Zhigang said with a smile.

When Zhou Bingkun came in, seeing Zhou Zhigang so happy, he was thinking about talking about the marriage proposal and meeting the in-laws. Unexpectedly, he was kicked by Zhou Zhigang as soon as he came in.

"Hey, Dad, what are you doing? I just came back and haven't done anything. Why did you kick me as soon as you come up?" Zhou Bingkun put down his things and said while covering his butt.

"Why should I kick you, you little brat? You are planning to propose marriage and meet the in-laws, why didn't you tell me earlier? If your sister didn't tell me, when would you tell me? A kick from me is even a light one." Zhou Zhigang didn't really kick him, otherwise he wouldn't have taken off his shoes.

Zhou Bingkun looked helplessly at Zhou Rong who was lying on the kang. This sister had indeed changed a lot since she married Cai Xiaoguang. She used to be arrogant and didn't think much of him. Zhou Bingkun knew it all, but now she has changed a lot. Zhou Bingkun still likes this kind of sister very much. It's just that after she got pregnant, she started to act like a child.

"I didn't think about telling you at dinner time. We were all having such a great time at noon, so I didn't tell you." Zhou Bingkun said aggrievedly.

"Okay, your explanation is quite reasonable. I won't kick you. Tell me what your plan is." Zhou Zhigang asked after sitting back on the kang.

Zhou Bingkun briefly explained his plan. Actually, it was nothing. He just wanted to visit her on the second day of the Chinese New Year. After all, they had been dating for such a long time, so he would mention the intention of getting married. After that, he would just set a time for the parents of both parties to meet.

Zhou Zhigang also knew about the Zheng family's situation. He would not look down on other people's family, but there were some things that needed to be said. This was also a father's advice.

"Bingkun, you have been unwilling to study since you were young, and you are also naughty, unlike your brother and sister, so I am a little strict with you, but you are all my children, and I love you. After the proposal, you will be the head of the family. Your mother and I will definitely help you, but when you get married, you will be the head of the family, and you will need to take on the responsibility of the family."

"Your mother and your brother-in-law have told me about Zheng Juan's situation. She should be a good girl, but the Zheng family's conditions are not that good. The burden on you will be heavier. Are you ready for all this?" Zhou Zhigang said to Zhou Bingkun from the bottom of his heart.

"Well, Dad, I know, and I'm ready for all this. Juan'er is a good girl, and I want to be with her. Besides, her mother and brother can work, so there won't be any burden. And I think I can bear these burdens." This was the first time Zhou Bingkun knew Zhou Zhigang's thoughts, and he said to Zhou Zhigang in a serious tone.

"Okay, then I'm relieved. You can propose on the second day of the New Year, and our parents will meet on the third day to set the date." Seeing that Zhou Bingkun had made up his mind, Zhou Zhigang also decided on it.

"Xiaoguang, I was originally planning to meet with your parents and have dinner together, but I didn't expect this brat to do this. So you see, let's have dinner with your parents on the fourth day of the New Year, at home. I will have to be late for the train on the fifth day." Zhou Zhigang said to Cai Xiaoguang.

Originally, he had planned to meet Cai Xiaoguang's parents during the Chinese New Year this year, but with Zhou Bingkun's incident, he had to postpone it. Zhou Zhigang also felt a little embarrassed.

"Hey, it's no big deal, Dad. It's okay. I haven't set a specific date anyway. It's okay." Cai Xiaoguang waved his hand and said.

The matter was settled. After dinner in the evening, Cai Xiaoguang took Zhou Rong back home. Tomorrow was the 30th, and they definitely couldn't stay here.

The next day, which was New Year's Eve, Cai's father and mother came over early in the morning. Normally, Cai Xiaoguang should have brought Zhou Rong to their place, but the old couple was worried that it would be inconvenient for Zhou Rong to go there with her big belly, so they asked the driver to bring them over early.

Cai's father and mother dote on Zhou Rong now. Not to mention that she is pregnant, the old couple are extremely excited about the twins.

Both the Cai and Zhou families had a prosperous year. Although Zhou Bingyi was not there, the Zhou family was very happy because Zhou Zhigang had returned.

It is a custom not to go out on the first day of the New Year, so Cai Xiaoguang brought Zhou Rong to Zhou's house on the second day of the New Year, which meant he was going back to her parents' home.

Zhou Bingkun is not at home now, but appears in Taiping Hutong with some things.

Although the families in Taiping Hutong were in a tight spot, since it was New Year's Eve, they were willing to eat something, and the air was filled with the aroma of meat.

Zhou Bingkun has been to the Zheng family many times, but he was still a little nervous today. He stood outside the door and took deep breaths to adjust his mood.

"Bingkun, you're here and don't come into the house yet. Come in quickly." Zheng's mother came out to pour water and saw Zhou Bingkun standing at the door, so she greeted him quickly.

"Okay, auntie." Zhou Bingkun forgot about the tense situation after being interrupted and came in carrying his things.
