Zhou Shiwei and her family were sitting around the dining table having lunch. Suddenly, she looked up at her mother Li Yao with curiosity in her eyes and asked casually.

That’s right, the man next door is named Zhou Yanchen, and Zhou Shiwei is the eldest daughter of Zhou Yanchen and his wife Li Yao, and their son is named Zhou Shiyan.

"It's Comrade Song from next door."

Li Yao replied to her daughter, "I now know what it means to be extremely beautiful and stunning. Comrade Song is really good-looking. I have never seen a girl prettier than her. She also has a noble, elegant and intellectual temperament. She looks like a fairy."

"Mom, isn't your description a bit exaggerated? Is Comrade Song really as good-looking as you say?"

Zhou Shiwei was a little disapproving in her heart. From childhood to adulthood, wherever she went, people would praise her for her good looks. After all, she inherited all the good qualities from her parents.

She is nearly 170cm tall, slender and graceful, with delicate facial features and fair skin. Given the status of the Zhou family in the capital, it is no exaggeration to say that she is a rich lady.

She didn't believe that Comrade Song next door could be compared with her.

"I think you just can't accept that someone is prettier than you."

Zhou Shiyan glanced at Zhou Shiwei and said, "You have always loved to be conceited since you were a child. You always think that no one is prettier than you. I feel ashamed to have a sister like you!"

"How do you talk?"

The head of the family, Zhou Yanchen, glared at his son: "Weiwei is your sister, speak to her with respect."

"How else do you want me to respect you?"

Zhou Shiyan was not convinced and said angrily: "Ever since she was little, Zhou Shiwei has been like a proud peacock. She would look down on any of my friends' sisters if they were prettier than her.

This also caused my friends to have a bad face. Every time this happened, I felt so embarrassed in front of my friends, and I didn’t know how to face them afterwards, so that slowly their relationship with me became distant. But has Zhou Shiwei ever considered my feelings?

No, she said I had a bad temper, so my friends stopped playing with me. Dad, can you and my mom tell me if I am wronged? "

"Your sister is just joking with you. You are a man, do you really want to argue with a girl?"

Zhou Yanchen is speaking for his daughter.

Li Yao lowered his head and ate noodles without saying anything.

"She is a girl, I shouldn't be so serious with her. She is still my sister, why don't you feel sorry for your brother?"

Zhou Shiyan's eyes were red, showing how aggrieved he was. He said, "Dad, you have always favored my sister, asking me to give in to her in everything and protect her outside. Are all other brothers like me? As a brother, don't I need my sister's protection?"

"Where do you get all this nonsense from?"

Zhou Shiwei glared: "I just chatted with mom for a few words, and you have endless resentment and dissatisfaction. Zhou Shiyan, can you be more generous? Don't forget, you are a boy!"

"I hate you, Zhou Shiwei!"

Putting down his chopsticks, Zhou Shiyan stood up and left the table and went back to his room.

Li Yao sighed, and she said to Zhou Shiwei, "Weiwei, your brother is right in some of his words. You should not take appearance too seriously, especially when you like a girl who is prettier than you. Even if you don't like her, don't show it in front of others, otherwise, you will be considered uneducated."

"I'm good-looking! All the girls I've met are ugly, but they think they're so good-looking. In front of me, they're like a pair of eyes on their foreheads. Since they treat me like this, why should I be friendly to them?"

Zhou Shiwei obviously didn't listen to what her mother Li Yao said. She glanced at her father Zhou Yanchen, then turned her gaze back to her mother Li Yao: "You and my father are both very good-looking. I have inherited all the advantages of your appearance.

Besides, I have been loved by everyone since I was a child, and all the elders praised me for my beauty, so I am more confident about my appearance. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"That's right, our Weiwei is beautiful for everyone to see. Okay, let's stop being upset and eat quickly. Dad will personally take you and Shi Yan to the town middle school to complete the enrollment procedures this afternoon."

When Zhou Yanchen was coaxing his daughter, what he feared most in his life was the jealousy in his wife and daughter's eyes.

"Can you please stop pampering Weiwei like this?"

Li Yao frowned and said, "What I said before was not an exaggeration at all. Comrade Song next door is indeed a fairy-like beauty, and his words and deeds are elegant and polite, which is simply incomparable to Weiwei.

Besides, Comrade Song doesn’t look very old. If he stood next to Weiwei, no one would doubt that they were of the same age.”

"mom……"

Zhou Shiwei pouted, about to cry, and said, "Am I as bad as you say?"

"I'm done eating, you two can enjoy your meal."

Li Yao stood up, put away the dishes and chopsticks for her and her son Zhou Shiyan, and walked to the kitchen. When she turned around, she didn't even look at the faces of Zhou Yanchen and Zhou Shiwei, father and daughter.

"My mom is too much!"

Zhou Shiwei said rather resentfully, "If it weren't for my mom, you wouldn't be targeted, and my grandpa wouldn't have tried to transfer your job to this kind of place."

"Who told you to say that about your mother?"

Zhou Yanchen's face darkened slightly. He stared at Zhou Shiwei and said, "I applied to be transferred to the Red Star Machinery Factory. It has nothing to do with your grandfather!"

The facts are indeed as Zhou Yanchen said. In order to protect his wife Li Yao, he specifically applied for a job transfer and took his wife and children away from the capital to avoid the limelight.

It’s just that when he made the decision, the old man in the family talked to him, but after listening to his explanation, the old man had no objection and was supportive.

Speaking of which, Li Yao was originally a real rich girl. When she was seventeen or eighteen years old, she met Zhou Yanchen. They fell in love at first sight. Li Yao insisted on being with Zhou Yanchen and did not go abroad with her family.

In other words, apart from Zhou Yanchen and his two children, Li Yao has no relatives left in the country.

Zhou Yanchen can be described as a gentleman who keeps his promise. He promised the Li family that he would treat Li Yao well. Since their marriage, he has loved his wife Li Yao from the bottom of his heart and has never let her suffer any grievances.

For example, in this job transfer, although Zhou Yanchen knew that coming to the Red Star Machinery Factory was not as good as staying in Beijing, he still applied to come here without hesitation, just to protect his other half.

"Dad...you are mean to me!"

Zhou Shiwei's eyes were filled with tears.

Zhou Yanchen's emotions were unclear. He said, "No one is more important to me than your mother. You are our daughter. Don't let me hear a word against your mother from you again."

After the voice fell, Zhou Yanchen finished the noodles in his bowl. He stood up, took his empty bowl and went to the kitchen. Seeing this, Zhou Shiwei's eyes were full of resentment. She was not blaming Zhou Yanchen as a father, but was extremely dissatisfied with her mother Li Yao.
