Chapter 388: Chapter 384 Seeing that She Can Get Married【900+ Votes】
——————
Yan Jinsu learned about her college entrance examination results and muttered to herself: Finally, her consumption of Spirit Core Water was not in vain, her intelligence has indeed slightly improved!
At this moment, Zhou Zhenghui seemed to have a telepathic understanding, bringing Little Tiantian to their house for a formal visit.
Indeed, what timing!
When Yan Jinsu saw Zhou Zhenghui, this was her disdainful thought, yet her face carried a shallow, appropriate smile—
As soon as Xie Jingzi spotted Zhou Zhenghui with Little Tiantian appearing on her second floor, her face alternated between black and red like a color palette, completely at a loss for words!
Because, before Zhou Zhenghui arrived, Zhou Xiuhua and Xie Tiesheng were in front of their family members, arguing that Wang Lixing was more suitable for their kind of family!
Xie Jingzi was being chided by her parents and was at a loss to argue back, just when she was about to seek help from Third Sister-in-law, she caught a glimpse of Zhou Zhenghui and Little Tiantian standing at the doorway, looking at her with an indescribable expression!
And Sister Jiang stood awkwardly behind Zhou Zhenghui, her arms filled with daily necessities, which Yan Jinsu had just instructed her to buy from the supply cooperative.
Since Sister Jiang had met Zhou Zhenghui before, when she saw him coming with Little Tiantian, she took the initiative to lead him upstairs, unaware that she would overhear Mr. Xie and Aunt Zhou’s underlying messages opposing Zhou Zhenghui as a suitor for Little Zi’er, which was really...
Too coincidental.
Zhou Zhenghui, carrying gifts, stepped boldly through the main door, placing the gifts on a small table at the entrance, before striding into the living room. He signaled Little Tiantian to call for someone and then went to find Xiao Si and Xiaoqi to play downstairs.
Wang Song was downstairs, so he was completely unworried.
Seeing that the children tactfully stayed away, Zhou Zhenghui bowed formally and said sternly to Xie Tiesheng and Zhou Xiuhua:
"Elder, Auntie, I am truly sincere about Little Zi. My Zhou family holds no prejudices towards any household! Please rest assured and entrust Little Zi to my care."
He got straight to the point with his opening statement?!
"Uh..." Zhou Xiuhua, as opposed to Xie Tiesheng—being less worldly-wise, was unsure how to respond. Seeing her spouse silently scrutinizing Zhou Zhenghui, she gently tugged at her husband. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Xie Tiesheng frowned, glancing sideways at Zhou Xiuhua, then withdrew his scrutinizing gaze, turning into a simple and honest old farmer.
But his face remained stiff, completely silent, which was clearly being deliberately difficult.
"You, please, sit down, heh..." Zhou Xiuhua, trying to preempt her spouse, waved her hands and stood up to indicate him to sit, and then under her husband’s disapproving gaze, she forced a smile with a chuckle.
"Hello, Secretary Zhou, please have a seat, don’t be polite."
Yan Jinsu, seeing the situation turning awkward, quickly signaled Sister Jiang to bring up the sleeping baskets for the babies, politely calling out to Zhou Zhenghui, and said to the stiff Xie Jingzi:
"Darling, go make a pot of tea."
Xie Tiesheng, hearing the term ’Secretary Zhou’ from his daughter-in-law, tensed up, clearly aware of their weaker position, glaring at Zhou Xiuhua and slightly turning his body away, ultimately not outright asking the guest to leave—
But Xie Tiesheng’s dark tiger-like eyes still occasionally carried a scrutinizing glance towards Zhou Zhenghui, who sat down upon Yan Jinsu’s invitation.
Zhou Zhenghui immediately took his seat, his posture natural, his nose held high with a resolute expression.
Just by looking at Zhou Zhenghui’s appearance, with his exquisite features, one glance gives the impression: Indeed, he is a playboy that would captivate a woman’s heart!
Yan Jinsu couldn’t help but secretly chuckle at such a rare ’childish’ father-in-law.
"Third Sister-in-law, please don’t be polite, just call me Xiao Zhou," said Zhou Zhenghui, seeing that the elder still didn’t like his appearance, yet he didn’t shy away or leave abruptly, instead sitting upright and naturally.
His voice in conversation with Yan Jinsu was also gentle and courteous.
He’s in politics, always offering a smile before speaking—an instinctive skill.
"Then I’ll be bold and just call you Xiao Zhou," Yan Jinsu didn’t hesitate and agreed directly.
From her perspective, her little aunt seemed to have already developed a fondness for this Zhou surname man, having heard him directly mention the Zhou family’s lack of concern for social status, she agreed with him inwardly by three points.
Moreover, since Little Tiantian is still a child, continuously calling Xie Jingzi ’little aunt’ without Zhou Zhenghui’s approval would be unthinkable for a mere seven or eight-year-old child. What could she know?
Clearly, Zhou Zhenghui was making a move to ’stake a claim’ first, a roundabout strategy that was straightforward and open, didn’t she notice her parents-in-law implicitly approving while listening?
Honestly, what does it look like, quibbling with a child? Besides, even if you wanted to argue, how could you reason with a child? That little girl Tiantian, of course, only listens to her dear little uncle.
This closeness and distance between them is apparent at a glance.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhenghui’s peach blossom eyes suddenly brightened, meeting Yan Jinsu’s smiling eyes, he immediately felt this was the true elegance of a Yan Family’s daughter!
Yan Jinxian really couldn’t hold a candle to the ’Third Sister-in-law’ before him.
This person’s temperament is truly innate, even if stolen, it would only bring temporary joy.
Even without mentioning the current Yan Jinsu, just talking about the original owner, Zhang Shanni—her inherent nature and resilience are not something Yan Jinxian could match.
"Please have some tea." Xie Jingzi brought over Huaiqing tea and handed it to Zhou Zhenghui, her eyes glaring at him fiercely, but in contrast her expression revealed a faint smile.
Upon seeing the young lady’s demeanor, Zhou Zhenghui immediately sensed her annoyance.
"Thank you." Using the corner’s cover, Zhou Zhenghui gently pulled, causing Xie Jingzi to lean back and seemingly naturally collapse beside him.
Xie Tiesheng didn’t see Zhou’s actions, but he did see his youngest daughter ’shyly’ lower her head and silently sit beside that rascal.
This invisibly was her way of expressing her stance, much to Xie Tiesheng’s irritation.
It was only when Zhou Xiuhua once again tugged at her husband’s arm that Mr. Xie, with a stern face, glared across at the young couple sitting opposite him.
Yan Jinsu unexpectedly noticed, despite her little aunt glaring fiercely but subtly, she showed no signs of being actually upset at all of Zhou Zhenghui’s actions.
Is she... used to it?!
Oh my, the little aunt has indeed grown up, soon able to be married off!
Zhou Zhenghui first half-bowed to add some black tea for Xie Tiesheng, Zhou Xiuhua, and Yan Jinsu, then as he sat down, his large hand casually swept up Xie Jingzi’s small hand, enveloping it within his own and placing it sincerely on his knee while he spoke—
During this, his gaze earnestly met with his prospective parents-in-law across from him.
