Chapter 584 Admitted to University, Zhou Family Goes Home for the New Year

Ever since Zhou Chen said that the whole family would go to the capital together, Zheng Juan has been a little restless these days.

Expectation, nervousness, worry, timidity, longing...

As an out-and-out Han Chinese, especially in this era, almost ninety-nine out of ten people are full of yearning for the capital.

Although Zheng Juan has never been out of Jichun City and has no big ambitions, if she has the opportunity to go to the capital, she actually wants to see it.

But when she thought about going with the whole family, even though Zhou Chen said that she had more than 6000 deposits, she was still very worried.

What she was thinking about was that when Zhou Chen was going to college in the capital, he would definitely not have time to make money, and the whole family would not be able to sit back and eat.

And it's the capital, so buying things must be more expensive than here, as well as renting a house and so on.

She has always been diligent and thrifty in managing her family, but when she thinks about these problems, she can't sit still.

Zhou Chen could see Zheng Juan's anxiety, and he had said it many times, but this wife was born to worry, even if he said it was fine, she was still worried.

Before the end of December, the results of the college entrance examination in Jiangliao Province finally came out. Zhou Chen thought he would be the number one in the college entrance examination, but in the end he found out that he only got the second place in the province.

Even though he passed the number one student in the college entrance examination, Zhou Chen didn't feel sad. Although he lived a long time and learned a lot, there is never a shortage of geniuses in the world.

What's more, the difficulty of the college entrance examination this time is relatively low, and it is normal for someone to do better than him.

The second place in the province, as long as it is a domestic university, you can choose it at will, which is enough for Zhou Chen.

After the results of the college entrance examination came out, Zhou Chen applied to Capital Medical College without hesitation.

No way, he also knew that the best medical school in the country was Capital Concord, but the problem was that Concord did not recruit students for the college entrance examination this time, and it would not reopen until the second half of 79.

Zhou Chen couldn't wait that long, so he could only settle for the next best thing and chose Capital Medical College.

The current Capital Medical College has not yet merged with Peking University, it is still an independent medical school, and it is also second to none in the capital.

Fortunately, it is not in the same campus as Peking University, otherwise, Zhou Rong may often see Zhou Rong in the future, which will definitely make him very upset.

With Zhou Chen's second place in the province, he applied to the Capital Medical College and was admitted without a doubt.

When Zhou Chen's admission letter was mailed home, both Li Suhua and Zheng Juan were overwhelmed with excitement.

In their limited knowledge, the best university in the country is the university in the capital. Zheng Juan knew that Zhou Chen was going to study medicine, so she was not surprised that Zhou Chen was admitted to the medical school.

But Li Suhua couldn't understand why the youngest son didn't choose the two best universities in the country, but insisted on choosing this medical school that she had never heard of.

The doubts were all doubts, but she was still very happy. Although the younger son was already very capable before, in the eyes of the older generation, being admitted to university was a matter of honoring the ancestors, which was more important than anything else.

The good news didn't stop there. Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong also sent letters home one after another, saying that they were both admitted to Peking University, a Chinese department and a philosophy department.

Zhou Chen knew that the acceptance rate of this year's college entrance examination was only less than 5.00%, which was far lower than that of later generations. The main reason is that there are not as many universities now, and the universities are not particularly detailed.

Even though this year's college entrance examination is relatively easy, being admitted to one of the best universities in China can also show that Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong have a solid foundation.

When Li Suhua received the letter from Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep, and couldn't sleep from ear to ear for several days in a row.

For an old lady who has no education and doesn't even know a word, it is the most glorious thing in her life to be able to raise three children from prestigious universities. To see the ancestors.

On the contrary, Zheng Juan was a little depressed when she learned that Zhou Chen's brother and sister had been admitted to a prestigious university. She felt that she was too useless, and her husband's ability was not even one-tenth as good as hers.

Looking at the situation of the Zhou family, both the eldest brother and sister were admitted to Peking University, the elder sister-in-law was also admitted to Jichun's medical school, and the brother-in-law is a cultural person and a great poet.

Only she was uneducated and just graduated from elementary school. She felt that she had embarrassed Zhou Chen.

As the person next to him, Zhou Chen could naturally feel his wife's emotions.

"Juan'er, don't feel inferior. In my heart, you are the best wife in the world. To me, nothing is more important than you."

Zhou Chen's consolation made Zheng Juan feel a lot better, yes, no matter how others are, in this family, her husband is the best and the best.

Being favored by her husband was the happiest thing in her life, a hundred times happier than going to college.

Zhou Zhigang, who was far away in the mountain city, also received three letters from his family, Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong.

There are many contents in the letter, but there is only one core content, that is, the universities that his three children have been admitted to, and two Peking University and one medical school are all in the capital.

Even though he accepted the excellence of his youngest son, he was still surprised when he learned that his youngest son was admitted to a university, which was a top medical school.

What's more, he didn't quite understand why Zhou Chen chose the medical school instead of the Chinese department?
It was a letter from my family, and I finally wrote it, hoping that he would go home during the Chinese New Year and discuss family matters.

This made Zhou Zhigang frowned unconsciously, because this year's Spring Festival was not his turn to take a vacation, if he wanted to go home, he could only ask for a vacation.

But he is a person who is very concerned about his work. Even if he is not feeling well, he can still go to work. If he asks for leave to go home for the New Year, it will take about ten days at least to go back and forth.

He felt that this would delay work and be sorry for the country, so he wrote a letter to his family and refused.

Zhou Chen not only wrote to Zhou Zhigang, asking him to come back, but also wrote to Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong, telling them to come back before school starts.

Both Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong were immersed in the beautiful vision of going to the capital to go to university. Regarding Zhou Chen's rather tough request, Zhou Bingyi thought about it and agreed.

For Zhou Bingyi, he was going to college soon, so there was no need for the Construction Corps to stay any longer. There was no big difference between leaving a few days earlier and a few days later, and the Corps would not intentionally trap him.

Moreover, Hao Dongmei was also admitted to the local medical school in Jichun, and her parents were also reinstated. This time when I go back, I can meet her parents and spend a new year together.

As for Zhou Rong, she actually didn't want to go back, but Zhou Chen's attitude in the letter was very firm, saying that if she didn't come back, when he went to the capital to go to school, he would take Feng Yue with him and send him directly to her school.

If Zhou Chen used other methods to force him, it would not necessarily make Zhou Rong submit.

But talking about Feng Yue scared Zhou Rong all of a sudden.

Because Zhou Rong wants to go to university, it is definitely impossible to take her children to school, and the studies will be heavy, so she must live in school for a lot of time.

Although Feng Huacheng is a native of the capital, the problem is that he doesn't have a house in the capital. He is poor and white. When he goes to the capital, he will definitely rent a house or live in a flat.

Think about where the capital is. The prices there must be higher than in her hometown. She is going to school, not to enjoy life.

Although Feng Huacheng has made up a lot of salary over the years, she still needs money to go to school, and she goes to a prestigious university, so it doesn't cost money to be with her classmates?

Thinking that if Feng Yue was brought with her, the already difficult life would be even worse, she shivered suddenly.

So she discussed with Feng Huacheng, let's go home for the new year.

At this time, Feng Huacheng was also selfish, thinking that the difficult days were over, and it was his turn to show his ambitions.

With his confidence bursting, how could he let his daughter be restrained at this time.

Therefore, these two people are really not a family, and they don't come into the same family.

Zhou Chen also guessed what the two of them were thinking, so he concluded that they dare not not come back.

If you want to say who is the happiest person in the entire Zhou family, it must be Li Suhua.

The three children have all been admitted to university, and they are coming back for the Chinese New Year. This made her, who had been looking forward to the family reunion for a long time, so excited that she couldn't sleep the whole night.

Then it started the same state as it was in 76, and started to prepare all kinds of delicious food.

Not long after Zhou Zhigang replied, Zhou Chen sent him another telegram, only a few short words.

'Children return, hurry back to the New Year. '

Good guy, Zhou Zhigang, who was still thinking about work when he heard that his eldest son and daughter were going home for the New Year, immediately changed his attitude and replied a telegram saying that he would be home before the end of the year.

All three of the Zhou family's children were admitted to college. This incident caused a huge sensation in the optical film, and once again became the envy of men, women and children in the optical film.

You must know that this time the college entrance examination, there are many young people of the right age who participated in the optical film.

But unfortunately, except for the three children of the Zhou family, none of them was admitted to university, including the women director Qiao Chunyan and Cao Debao.

Because of this matter, Qiao Chunyan and Cao Debao have not shown their faces these days, for fear of being compared with the three of the Zhou family.

For this matter, Sun Chanchao and Xiao Guoqing found Zhou Chen on purpose, had a drink with Zhou Chen, and celebrated.

Time passed quickly, and it was the eve of the Spring Festival in a blink of an eye. The three members of the Zhou family who were away all came back relatively late.

There is no thirty in this year, so 29 is New Year's Eve, Zhou Bingyi was the first to come back from the Zhou family, and he came back on 28.

This time, Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan rode to the train station to pick them up, while Li Suhua and Guangming took care of the children at home.

Both Zhou Rui and Feng Yue are four years old, so they don't need to be watched all the time, they can play for half a day by themselves, and it's okay if Zheng Juan is not around.

Zhou Cong is also more than one year old, has learned to walk, and can speak a lot, but compared to Zhou Rui, he is relatively less developed.

Zheng Juan was sitting in the lobby of the train station, and Zhou Chen was guarding beside her.

The train station is not safe these days, and petty theft is the norm. If you are not careful, you may even drag people and belongings away.

"Bingkun, brother and sister-in-law, don't they have the two o'clock train, it's 02:30 now, why haven't they come yet?"

Zheng Juan, who was picking up someone at the train station for the first time, was obviously inexperienced, so she asked Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen said: "Don't worry, it's normal for the train to be late, wait a little longer, it should be soon."

Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei were not far from Jichun City, and it was only a few hours by train, so even if they were late, they would not be too late.

At around [-]:[-], the train Zhou Bingyi and the others took finally arrived at the station.

"Brother, sister-in-law."

Two years later, when I saw Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei again, their looks didn't change much, but their spirits did.

Zhou Bingyi also gave Zhou Chen a big hug.

"Bingkun, congratulations, you have been admitted to the capital's medical school, but I'm curious, why didn't you choose the Chinese Department of Beiqing, and instead studied medicine? With your grades, you can choose from any university in China."

Although the Capital Medical College is not bad, it is not on the same level as the best Peking University in China.

Zhou Chen said: "I prefer medicine, so I chose medical school."

Zhou Bingyi smiled and said: "Your sister-in-law is also enrolled in the medical school. It seems that there will be two colleagues in the family in the future."

Hao Dongmei also said happily: "Bingkun, I didn't expect that you would go to medical school like me. I originally wanted to go to the capital's medical school, but unfortunately, my grades were not enough to pass the exam."

Compared with Zhou Bingyi who can study in the Construction Corps and has time to study, she basically didn't have much time to study during those years in the countryside.

That is, after her parents were rehabilitated, she received better treatment and had time to review and study. It was already very difficult to be admitted to the medical school in her hometown.

Hao Dongmei said something to Zhou Chen, and then took Zheng Juan's hand.

"Juan'er, are Rui Rui and Cong Cong okay?"

When talking about the two children, her eyes were obviously bright. She couldn't have children, so she liked Zhou Rui and Zhou Cong very much.

Zheng Juan said: "They are all very good. Ruirui knows that sister-in-law is back, and she wants to hear you tell him stories."

"Really? Ruirui, he can still remember me?"

Hao Dongmei was very surprised, but also very happy.

Zheng Juan: "Remember, even though Ruirui is still young, he will remember who treats him well. Knowing that you are coming back today, he keeps calling his auntie."

Hao Dongmei smiled and said, "I also miss Rui Rui."

"Then we'll see you later."

"Yes, immediately..."

Before Hao Dongmei could say anything, Zhou Bingyi suddenly interrupted: "Dongmei, didn't we agree with your parents to go and see them first?"

Hao Dongmei came to her senses immediately, and said angrily, "That's right, look at my brain, we need to visit my parents first."

Zhou Chen frowned unconsciously when he heard the conversation between the two.

"Brother, come here, I have something to tell you."

Before Zhou Bingyi answered, he was pulled aside by Zhou Chen, and he said depressedly: "Bingkun, what are you doing, what can't you say in front of your sister-in-law, you have to pull me over?"

Zhou Chen didn't answer, but asked with a serious face: "Brother, I just heard from you that you want to go back with sister-in-law to see her parents first?"

Zhou Bingyi nodded: "Yes, we have already made an agreement with your sister-in-law's parents. Speaking of which, this is the first time I have visited Dongmei's parents since we got married."

"Don't go home, go directly?"

"Well, her parents arranged for a car to pick us up at the train station, and it's probably here now."

Zhou Chen's complexion was not good, and his tone became dissatisfied: "Brother, Mom waited for so long before you came back, but now you are staying home and not coming back. You have to visit sister-in-law's parents first, why can't you go home for a while?" Come on, do you want to discuss it with your mother before going?"

Zhou Bingyi raised his head in surprise, saw the dissatisfaction on Zhou Chen's face, and said suspiciously: "I just went to see your sister-in-law's parents first, and I didn't say I couldn't go back to celebrate the New Year. I spend a lot of time with our mother, don't be in such a hurry Bar?"

Zhou Chen was speechless. It is a good thing to respect his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but as a son, he is already home, so why not go home first and visit his mother?

From Zhou Bingyi's attitude, he could feel that Zhou Bingyi attached more importance to his parents-in-law than his own mother.

The reason for all this must be the identity of Hao Dongmei's parents, which made Zhou Bingyi feel inferior.

"Mom knows you're coming back, so Juan'er and I have been waiting for you here for a few hours, but you don't come back with us now, how can I explain to Mom?"

Zhou Bingyi showed guilt: "Bingkun, I know you and Juan'er have worked hard, this time it's my fault, when I go back, I will personally apologize to my mother, and you can help me too, say good things to my mother, and let her not angry."

Seeing his attitude, Zhou Chen knew that he couldn't persuade him. This filial son was no longer the filial son of the Zhou family, and half of him had become the filial son of the Hao family.

"You can do whatever you want, but I will give you a piece of advice. Although their family is a high-ranking official and has a high position and weight, our Zhou family is no worse than them. You don't need to lower your posture so low. The more you look at people like them, If you are cautious and lower your posture to cater to them, they may look down on you even more."

Zhou Bingyi had a weird expression on his face. He was just visiting his parents-in-law, but Zhou Chen said such words.

He instinctively wanted to refute. After all, he was the eldest brother. When did he need his younger brother to teach him how to do things?

But after thinking about it carefully, what Zhou Chen said might not be unreasonable. He had always been cautious before going to see Hao's father and mother.

Do you really have to follow Zhou Chen's persuasion?
When Zhou Bingyi was lost in thought, Zhou Chen patted him and joined Hao Dongmei and Zheng Juan.

Watching Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei get into the car, Zhou Chen was puzzled.

Having watched the TV series, he knows what kind of people the Hao family are. Having experienced ups and downs, they cherish the present very much, and they are especially afraid of making mistakes. They are really cautious and cautious.

I don't deny that they are good officials, but Zhou Chen doesn't like their characters. No, it doesn't mean that they don't like them, it can only be said that they don't agree with them.

They are also senior officials, Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen have their ups and downs just like them, but they are not like them.

Hao Dongmei's mother is okay, but her father is definitely a snobby.

The in-laws have not met each other for so many years, until they died. How can this be something normal people can do?

Don't say it's because Zhou Bingyi asked him for help. Anyone who has watched the plot knows that Hao's father is not so impartial.

The in-laws failed to meet, in the final analysis, there was only one reason. He looked down on the Zhou family and his wife, and felt that after the meeting, the Zhou family might cling to them, so he was reluctant to meet.

Zhou Zhigang didn't understand at first, but later he understood, and he never mentioned the meeting again.

"Bingkun, Mom must be very disappointed that brother and sister-in-law didn't go back with us?"

Zheng Juan was pure-hearted and didn't think as much as Zhou Chen did. All she could think of was that her mother-in-law would be disappointed because her elder brother and the others didn't go back.

"Well, after you go back, you have to persuade her well, our eldest brother, he is not easy."

Although Zhou Chen was dissatisfied with Zhou Bingyi's actions, he could also understand Zhou Bingyi's psychology. The gap between the two families was so great that even his arrogant elder brother unconsciously lowered his posture and carefully tried to please him.

The idiom "right to the right household" is sometimes a guiding light. If the door is not right or the household is wrong, it is impossible to live a good life in most cases. If one can live a good life, it must be one of the parties who is constantly paying.

Back home, Li Suhua didn't see her eldest son. After hearing Zheng Juan's explanation, although she understood, she could still see that she was very sad.

As a mother, the first thing her son did when he came home was not to meet her, but to meet his father-in-law and mother-in-law, so how could he be happy.

Zhou Chen originally thought that Zhou Bingyi would come back at night, but it turned out that Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei didn't come back at night, and they didn't come back until the next morning.

Li Suhua was naturally happy to pull Zhou Bingyi to talk to Hao Dongmei, but Zhou Bingyi was very embarrassed to see Zhou Chen.

But Zhou Chen didn't care. How Zhou Bingyi wanted to live his life was his business. Unless he made the old lady too sad, he wouldn't bother to care about it.

The person who went to pick up Zhou Zhigang at noon was led by Zhou Bingyi, and Zhou Chen refused to follow him, riding a bicycle to the train station alone.

Zhou Bingyi received Zhou Zhigang smoothly, but he didn't take Zhou Zhigang home immediately, but came to a secluded place.

"Dad, I have something to tell you before I go home."

Zhou Zhigang was immersed in the joy of being able to reunite with his family. Hearing what the eldest son said, he felt a little strange, thinking that the eldest son had encountered some difficulties.

"Bingyi, if you have anything to say, just say it. I am your father. As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you."

Zhou Bingyi had already made up his mind, so he said it without hesitation.

"Dad, didn't you and Mom ask me why I don't want children? I can tell you now that what I told you before was not the truth. "

Zhou Zhigang's body trembled suddenly, with a bad premonition in his heart, he unconsciously took out his bags under the eyes, and rolled a cigarette with paper.

"Is it because Dongmei doesn't want to give birth?"

"No, Dad, you misunderstood. Dongmei likes children very much. You should understand that she likes Ruirui so much."

"It's not Dongmei. Could it be that you don't want to have children? Although you are going to college soon and it is inconvenient to have children, why didn't you want to in the past few years?"

Zhou Chen showed a bitter face, and sighed faintly: "It's not that we don't want it, but we can't. Dad, it's my problem. I'm sick and can't have children."

"what?"

After taking two puffs of the cigarette, it fell to the ground. Zhou Zhigang looked at Zhou Bingyi in disbelief.

"You said you couldn't give birth, what the hell is going on?"

Zhou Bingyi said: "After Dongmei and I got married, we didn't get pregnant for a long time. Both of us thought it was strange, so we went to the hospital for an examination, and it turned out that my problem was my problem. I didn't say it before, it was Dongmei who didn't want me to embarrass me. In addition, my self-esteem caused trouble, so I kept it from you and Mom, I'm sorry, Dad, I was wrong."

Zhou Zhigang's hands were trembling. He was happily returning home for the New Year. He never expected that he would be hit so hard before he even entered the house.

"Bingyi, Bingyi, you, let me tell you what's good about you, Bingyi..."

At this moment, Zhou Zhigang seemed to be several years older. For the older generation, carrying on the family line is the most important thing, but now he knows that the eldest son is infertile, which means that the eldest son will never be born again. The blow was too heavy.

"Dad, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, Dad."

Zhou Bingyi shed tears, on the one hand because he could not have his own child, and on the other hand because he lied and cheated his father again, and felt extremely guilty in his heart.

What else could Zhou Zhigang do, he patted Zhou Bingyi's shoulder heavily, and sighed: "You didn't feel sorry for me, so what's the point of being sorry, this is fate, fate."

He felt that the elder son was born infertile, and that made him feel guilty as a father.

Zhou Bingyi choked with sobs and said, "It's my fault that I couldn't give birth to grandchildren for you and mom, but fortunately, Bingkun worked hard and gave birth to two grandchildren for you, which made me feel a lot better."

Zhou Zhigang, who was sad in his heart, suddenly felt moved when he heard Zhou Bingyi mention his two grandsons.

"Let's go, go home, don't tell your mother about this, let your mother have a good Spring Festival, after the new year, I will tell your mother in person."

"I see, Dad, thank you."

"Thank you, I am your old man."

As soon as Zhou Zhi came home, Li Suhua was very excited, and the old couple happily hugged each other in front of the children.

Such a picture moved Zhou Chen and the adults very much. Only those who have experienced separation can understand how happy reunion is.

"Old man, you are old."

"Suhua, you are still the same as last year, you haven't changed at all."

Li Suhua really hasn't changed much, because Zhou Chen is an excellent doctor, and he will give Li Suhua supplements and take care of his body on a regular basis.

So compared to Zhou Zhigang who has been doing physical labor all year round, Li Suhua looks much younger, with a rosy face.

"Ruirui, Congcong, come on, call me grandpa."

Seeing Zhou Rui and Zhou Cong, Zhou Zhigang was so happy from ear to ear, especially staring at Zhou Rui: "Rui Rui, do you still remember Grandpa?"

Zhou Rui nodded his head: "Remember, you are my grandfather, and I even plucked your beard. Your beard hurts people."

"Ha ha……"

Zhou Zhigang laughed happily, very happy that his grandson still remembered him.

Then he looked at Zhou Cong again. Compared to Zhou Rui, Zhou Cong was much more shy, and looked at him timidly. Under Zheng Juan's urging, he just called out "Grandpa" in a low voice, and then there was no more .
