When Mr. Zhou heard what Principal Wan said, he finally felt relieved.

He was really afraid that Weekend would be determined to remain single for the rest of his life, and he would die with regrets.

"Does our family know about Lin Xi and Xiao Fu's plan?"

"I know, otherwise why would your Lele give all his monthly allowance to Xixi to help him keep and manage it for no reason?"

Hearing this, Mr. Zhou smiled and said, "I have Xiao Fu's wife to help me take care of it, and I feel at ease."

"What you said makes me wonder whether I should sympathize with Xiao Fu or feel sorry for Lin Xi."

Mr. Zhou rolled his eyes at Principal Wan and said, "Now I just hope that Xiao Fu and Le Le can get promoted before the college entrance examination is resumed, otherwise they will probably have to live apart by then."

"Why don't you give your precious grandson some gentle advice?"

"Whether they can be promoted depends on their real ability and strength. The most I can do is to ensure that they are not pushed down by other people with connections. The rest depends on their own efforts. Otherwise, no one will obey them even if they are promoted. We soldiers all rely on our strength and hard skills, which is different from yours."

"But with you there to show them the way, they are different from others after all."

Old Master Zhou shook his head and said, "You are really wrong. Whether it is Xiao Fu or my family, I have never interfered with their work. They are where they are now because of themselves. I have nothing to do with it. If I really interfered, those people in my family would be the first to be dissatisfied."

Thinking of the Zhou family's situation, Principal Wan stopped talking.

Mr. Zhou married three wives when he was young. Although the first two wives passed away early, their children are still there.

There have always been open and secret struggles in the family, but Mr. Zhou doesn't care about these things.

Even though Weekend was his most beloved grandson, the most he could do was prepare some food for Weekend.

There was no other help.

Not to mention Fu Huaichuan.

He had never even met Mr. Zhou, and Mr. Zhou had never met him, let alone reminded outsiders of him.

Everything he had in the army was earned through hard work.

"When you sent Lele to the army, did you ever worry that he might lose his life on the battlefield one day?"

"Of course I was worried, but is worrying useful? Aren't there many sons and grandsons of the old guys around us who died on the battlefield in recent years? Since we have inherited the glory brought by the family, we must accept the pressure and danger brought by the family. Besides, haven't we all survived the hail of bullets?"

Principal Wan is a man of letters after all.

Hearing Mr. Zhou's "heartless" words, he couldn't help but shook his head and said, "But Lele is your most beloved grandson after all. What if something unexpected happens..."

"That's his life too!"

Precisely because he is the most beloved grandson, I cannot be the only one to be spoiled.

"Old Wan, if you don't carve jade, it won't become a useful object!"

"I have a friend who is just the opposite of you. He kept his most beloved grandson by his side."

"Why keep him around? To waste your time and life? Or to stay around and become a useless second-generation rich kid? My family doesn't support second-generation rich kids."

"He intends to have that grandson of his go into politics."

"Being in politics also depends on whether the other party has the brains. If the other party does not have the brains, being in politics will only make his precious grandson die more miserably."

Principal Wan: “…”

"Don't curse people to death as soon as you open your mouth."

"But what I said is also the truth. Haven't we seen enough in these years?"

"You're talking as if you don't need brains to do your job. People without brains will die quickly if they do your job."

"That's not necessarily the case. No one with a brain can be the executor."

Mr. Zhou sent Principal Wan to his residence and had dinner with him before going home.

Before going home, he went back to the office and left most of the food that was sent to him at the weekend at the company, then took home the money he had gotten from Grandpa Qin and Grandpa Sang, as well as some snacks.

The current Mrs. Zhou saw what Mr. Zhou's guard was holding and said, "Are these the things that Lao Le Tuo Wan brought to you?"

Mr. Zhou nodded and said, "This is only a small part of it. I left some of it at work."

"What's everything?" asked Old Mrs. Zhou.

"That's quite a lot of food, but don't give it to the children down below."

"Is it true that you won't let me?"

"No, I can't bear to give it away. I want to keep it all for myself. You'll know the details after you taste the food that was sent to me." As Grandpa Zhou spoke, he took out a bag of spicy beef jerky from the food he brought back and gave it to Grandma Zhou.

When Mrs. Zhou saw the oil about to overflow from the bag, she exclaimed, "Wow, that's quite a lot of oil!"

"That's secondary. The most important thing is that it tastes good. This is what I got from Lao Qin and the others." Old Mrs. Zhou is from western Sichuan and loves spicy food.

Mr. Zhou poured some spicy beef on the plate brought by the nanny. "I tried some in the airport lounge earlier. The taste is really amazing. If you don't believe me, why don't you try it?"

"I'll try it."

Old Mrs. Zhou picked up a small piece of meat and put it in her mouth. The numbing and spicy taste immediately spread between her lips and teeth, making her open her eyes unconsciously.

Seeing this, Mr. Zhou smiled and said, "Isn't it delicious?"

"This taste... is actually the same as the spicy beef my mom used to make. I haven't had such delicious spicy beef in many years."

"How about I say that Lele is someone who knows how to enjoy life? Not only this spicy beef, but this beef jerky made in an earthen kiln is also very delicious. And this pork jerky, meat floss and spicy strips should also be your favorites. But what I'm most curious about is the braised pork offal made by Xiao Fu's wife. Lele said that this was specially made for me to go with wine..."

At this time, the nanny of the family had already put the food that Mr. Zhou brought back into plates and brought them to the dining table according to his request, especially the braised pork offal, peanuts for drinking, and pickles. Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou sat at the dining table and started eating while drinking a little wine.

"LeLe told me that they made several flavors of mooncakes and rice dumplings. How about we open them and try some?"

"You won't even give these foods to Lele's parents, right?"

"Well, no."

"you……"

"Do you know?"

"I don't know, but he should have guessed it, so he never mentioned his parents to me the whole time."

"He didn't send anything extra to his parents?"

"He does want to send it, but he has to have something to send. Do you think Xiao Fu's wife is his nanny? He can do whatever he wants."

Without waiting for Mrs. Zhou to speak, Mr. Zhou continued, "I heard from Lao Wan that Xiao Fu loves his wife very much. Xiao Fu's wife spends almost all of her rest time making these things. It would be fine if she only made them for me, but Lao Qin and Lao Sang's grandchildren also joined in the fun and made a portion for the two old guys as well..."
