Reborn in 1970, the chief’s wife wants a divorce

Chapter 253: The Arrogant Zhou Ruonan

A certain compound in Beijing.

At five o'clock in the morning, just as the sky was getting light, Zhou Jin woke up.

However, Zhou Jin did not make any sound.

He lay quietly in bed, watching the morning light outside the window gradually brighten up.

It snowed in Beijing last night.

A thin layer of snow fell on the windowsill, and in the reflection of the morning light, it was coated with a faint golden edge.

How beautiful!

Zhou Jin exclaimed in his heart, and looked greedily at the beautiful scenery outside the window.

Zhou Jin knew that he probably didn't have many days left to live.

Recently, his body has become heavier day by day, and his sleep time has become shorter day by day. At night, Zhou Jin will wake up at the slightest noise, and then he can't fall asleep again.

Many times, Zhou Jin stayed awake until dawn.

Last night was the best night of sleep Zhou Jin had had in recent days.

The school called Zhou Jin to report the good news. Zhou Bingchen had scored excellent marks in all tests during this closed training and ranked first in overall performance.

Zhou Jin was very pleased.

Even if his Bingchen had not grown up with him, he would still have grown into an excellent soldier.

As a grandfather, he failed to protect Bingchen back then, causing Bingchen to suffer a lot outside over the years.

Sadly, he didn't have many days left to live.

If he could live longer, he would teach Bingchen everything he had learned throughout his life, as well as the experiences he had gained on the battlefield. With Bingchen's intelligence and talent, he might be able to surpass his master and become a new generation of generals in China.

Zhou Jin lay on the bed, thinking about this and that, but his body was lazy and he didn't want to move at all.

Time passed little by little.

Around eight o'clock, Zhou Bingchen came to Zhou's house.

Zhou Ruonan opened the door.

Seeing Zhou Bingchen, who was handsome in military uniform, Zhou Ruonan's face was long and she asked, "Zhou Bingchen, why are you here? Don't you have to go to school today?"

"Aunt, I'm on vacation today. I have something to talk to grandpa about." Zhou Bingchen looked calm.

Zhou Bingchen received a notice yesterday that the trainees who had completed the closed training would have their winter vacation early.

The holiday will last until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month next year.

Zhou Bingchen was extremely happy at that time.

If Zhou Bingchen hadn't made an appointment with Zhao Zhenzhu to call yesterday afternoon, he would have wanted to buy a train ticket and rush home.

"Tell me what's going on! My dad is still sleeping, don't go upstairs and disturb him." Zhou Ruonan said coldly.

"Aunt, I'm afraid you can't make the decision." Zhou Bingchen glanced at Zhou Ruonan and said.

"I have the final say on everything in this family. Go ahead!" Zhou Ruonan held her head high and said arrogantly.

Zhou Ruonan felt that Zhou Bingchen looked down on her and felt a little unhappy.

"Aunt, I want to borrow grandpa's car for a day." Zhou Bingchen said.

"Borrow a car? Zhou Bingchen, you can't be too vain! You borrowed grandpa's car to show off, do you want our Zhou family to be laughed at?" Zhou Ruonan said with a long face, lecturing.

"Aunt, I'm not borrowing the car to show off. I'm going to the train station to pick up Zhenzhu and the children." Zhou Bingchen was a little impatient and his face darkened.

It snowed in Beijing last night, and the temperature was minus six degrees Celsius this morning.

Where Zhao Zhenzhu and the children live, the temperature is still around ten degrees Celsius at this time.

Zhou Bingchen was afraid that Zhao Zhenzhu and the children would not be able to adapt to the sudden change from a warm place to a cold place. He was even more worried that Zhao Zhenzhu and the children came to Beijing in a hurry and did not bring thick winter clothes, and would catch a cold after getting off the train.

After much deliberation, Zhou Bingchen decided to go to Zhou's house to borrow a car to pick up Zhao Zhenzhu and the others.

Before coming, Zhou Bingchen thought that Zhou Ruonan might make things difficult for him.

However, compared with the health of Zhao Zhenzhu and the children, Zhou Bingchen didn't take Zhou Ruonan's troubles seriously at all.

"Your wife and children arrived in Beijing today? Aren't they supposed to arrive tomorrow? I haven't asked Aunt Zhang to clean up the house yet!" Zhou Ruonan pretended to be surprised.

Aunt Zhang is Zhou Jin's nanny. Cooking and cleaning the house are all Aunt Zhang's responsibilities.

Of course Zhou Ruonan did not forget that Zhao Zhenzhu and the others were coming to Beijing today, but she deliberately concealed it and did not inform Zhang Ma.

Zhou Ruonan didn't want Zhou Bingchen's family to live in her house, for fear that Zhou Jin would spend more time with Zhou Bingchen and his family and his heart would be more inclined towards Zhou Bingchen.

"Aunt, don't worry. Zhenzhu and I can just stay in the guesthouse." Zhou Bingchen said lightly.

"When Dad asks you why you don't live at home, don't put the blame on me. It was you who wanted to live in the guesthouse. I didn't drive you away." Zhou Ruonan said happily.

"Aunt, I won't, don't worry. By the way, what about the car?" Zhou Bingchen knew that Zhou Ruonan was narrow-minded, so he didn't argue with her. However, he must borrow the car today.

"Isn't your wife from the countryside? How come she enjoys more than the daughters of wealthy families who were born and raised in Beijing? It only takes an hour and a half by bus from the train station to our compound. Does she feel that as the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family, she needs to be picked up and dropped off by a special car to be worthy of her status?" Zhou Ruonan said sarcastically.

"Aunt, my wife doesn't like to enjoy herself. She didn't ask me to pick her up. I came back to borrow the car because I felt sorry for her and the kids." Zhou Bingchen frowned and said, "In such cold weather, why do you have to squeeze into the bus when you can take a car? Aunt, don't blame me for being blunt. If you don't like to enjoy yourself, why do you have to ask Xiao Guo to take you to and from get off work every day recently? Don't think that everyone else is black just because you are black."

Zhou Ruonan said that Zhou Bingchen could ignore it.

However, Zhou Bingchen became unhappy when Zhou Ruonan said in a sarcastic tone that Zhao Zhenzhu was greedy for enjoyment.

This time, Zhao Zhenzhu and the others came to Jing City because Zhou Jin called them.

If Zhou Ruonan really regarded herself as the master of the Zhou family, it would be reasonable for her to take the initiative to go to the train station to pick people up, or send a car to the train station to pick up Zhao Zhenzhu and others without Zhou Bingchen asking.

Zhou Ruonan didn't make any arrangements.

Zhou Bingchen came back and borrowed a car to pick him up, but Zhou Ruonan gave him a lecture. It would be strange if Zhou Bingchen could tolerate her.

Zhou Ruonan has been riding in Zhou Jin's car frequently recently, and some people in the compound have been talking about Zhou Ruonan being "arrogant" behind her back.

When Zhou Bingchen just walked in, he was pulled aside by an elder he knew well to talk for a while. The topic was about Zhou Ruonan riding in Zhou Jin's car to and from get off work every day.

The elders asked Zhou Bingchen to persuade Zhou Ruonan not to lose the big picture for the small.

Zhou Bingchen didn't want to tell Zhou Ruonan about this matter directly, but wanted to remind his grandfather to take care of Zhou Ruonan. After all, he was a junior.

Since Zhou Ruonan wanted to cause trouble, Zhou Bingchen didn't care about her face and said it directly.

Zhou Ruonan choked.

This Zhou Bingchen's words are really irritating.

She was the elder, so what was wrong with her saying something to Zhao Zhenzhu? Her nephew scolded her with a gloomy face.

Her father has been ill and has not been out lately. The car is just sitting there. She is her father's biological daughter. What's wrong with using her father's car?

As expected of someone who grew up in the countryside, he has no manners at all.
