The world of film and television starts from a young age

Chapter 632 Children's future, on the eve of return
After entering the 21st century, with the development and progress of the society, Jichun City, as the capital of a province, has become very prosperous now, with high-rise buildings everywhere, and cars that were difficult to see in the past are now often seen.

Zhou's villa.

Zhou Chen's family also moved from the original small western-style building to the newly-built luxury villa.

Speaking of this villa area, it is also developed by Chenxing Group. There are more than 40 villas. Those who can live here are either rich or expensive people in Jichun City.

Whether it is the land area, property management, or other aspects, it is far beyond the local level of Jichun City, and it is not much worse than the capital Yanjing.

And Zhou's villa is the best one among the villas.

At this time, a farewell wine was being held in the Zhou family's villa, and Zhou Cong, Zhou Chen's second son, was seeing him off.

Zhou Cong raised his wine glass and shouted to everyone: "Grandpa, grandma, father, mother, I respect you."

Zhou Cong, who is 26 years old this year, graduated with a master's degree and is about to go to another province and city to work as a grassroots cadre.

Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan were naturally reluctant to let their son go so far away. Originally, Zhou Chen wanted to use his relationship to let Zhou Cong stay in Yanjing.

But Zhou Cong didn't want to live under his father's wing, so he insisted on making his own way, so he chose a place far away, and he probably wouldn't be able to return in a few years.

Because of this matter, Zheng Juan was still very angry. She brought up several children with her own hands, and her affection was very deep. Of course, she was reluctant to let her son stay away, let alone see him suffer hardship.

But Zhou Cong's attitude is very firm, and Zheng Juan's words can't change his determination.

On the contrary, Zhou Chen, although he is also very reluctant, but he is more open than Zheng Juan. When the children grow up, they want to go out and venture out by themselves, and their parents should not stop them.

"Cong Cong, just one word from Dad, work hard after you go, don't be timid, if a cadre doesn't have enough courage, it will be difficult to achieve success."

What should be taught has already been handed in since childhood, so Zhou Chen didn't ask too much.

On the contrary, Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua, the grandparents, were quite sad and said a lot of reluctant words.

The eldest grandson Zhou Rui took over the affairs of the Chenxing Group. Although he is not in Jichun, he can come back several times a year.

But after Zhou Cong left, I don't know how many years it will take to come back.

What the old couple is more worried about is that their health is getting worse and worse, and they probably don't have many years to live. If they don't see their grandson for the last time before they die, they will definitely feel unwilling.

The two younger brothers and sisters are not so sentimental, because after they became sensible, Zhou Cong went to Yanjing to attend high school and university, so the three of them did not get along for a long time. There must be some sadness, but it is definitely not like As deep as parents and grandparents.

The saddest person is undoubtedly Zheng Juan. Zhou Cong is a piece of flesh that fell from him. Although she has grown up, she feels uneasy and deeply dissatisfied when she thinks that her son is going to a place she has never been to. Abandon.

But no matter how reluctant she is, she is a great mother after all, willing to let her children go on their own.

Zhou Cong left, half a month after Zhou Cong left, the atmosphere in the Zhou family was not very good, Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua's health became worse and worse, especially Li Suhua, his legs were not flexible enough, and when he went out, he was basically You have to use a wheelchair.

Zheng Juan was even more sentimental for a long time. Zhou Chen persuaded her many times to no avail, so he could only comfort her by his side all the time.

If there were no two younger ones, he would have taken Zheng Juan to play around a long time ago, but now the two younger ones are only in junior high school, and it will take a few years before they can be admitted to college, and their parents are old, so they can leave now if they want no.

In this year, Hao Dongmei's mother, Jin Yueji, passed away. Everyone in the Zhou family, except Zhou Chen, attended the funeral.

Everyone also persuaded Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen didn't want to go there at all, no matter whether he was narrow-minded or other things, anyway, he didn't want to have any relationship with the Hao family.

Once Jin Yueji left, Hao Dongmei stopped coming to Zhou's house. Zhou Chen was unwilling to forgive her parents, and she was also unwilling to forgive Zhou Chen. Even if she was shopping for Zhou's father and Zhou mother, she would leave at the door. go in.

Zhou Bingyi's official career is developing well, but his health is not getting better day by day. Because he has been separated from Hao Dongmei for a long time, and without Jin Yueji to reconcile, the relationship between the two is getting weaker and weaker. Sometimes when they come back, they will quarrel .

Not long after Jin Yueji's death, Qu Xiuzhen, who lived in Shanghai, also died of illness. Zhou Chen took his family to Shanghai to attend Qu Xiuzhen's funeral.

To Zhou Chen, Qu Xiuzhen was really an elder worthy of admiration. Zhou Chen was deeply saddened by her death, because Qu Xiuzhen left so fast that he didn't even see her for the last time.

Another year passed. During this year, a major event happened in the Zhou family, that is, the eldest son Zhou Rui got married to his college classmate. The two talked for nine years and finally entered the palace of marriage.

On this point, Zhou Chen had to say that unlike him, the eldest son could only get married for nine years after falling in love, which is really slow enough.

The eldest son got married, and the second son also talked with a partner in the place where he worked, a girl from the leader's family.

After learning about this, Zheng Juan was both happy and sad, because she felt that if her son had a local girlfriend, he would probably settle down there, and it would be difficult to come back to accompany them.

On the other hand, Feng Yue, nearly [-] years old, is still not married, and he hasn't even talked about a boyfriend.

According to her words, she wanted to find a boyfriend who was as powerful as her uncle, but after so many years, she hadn't met any. Those boys who pursued him were too naive, and she really didn't want to fall in love with them.

The whole family of the Zhou family tried to persuade her, but she didn't take it seriously at all. She even said that she would not get married if it was a big deal. She would rather not get married than live like her parents.

For this reason, Zhou Rong cried many times in a hurry, and once she was out of breath, she quarreled with Zhou Chen, saying that it was because of Zhou Chen's education that Feng Yue was taught like this, and Zhou Chen gave her to her on the spot. chased away.

Zhou Chen also persuaded Feng Yue not to be too picky, she didn't have to find a man she loved, but she had to find someone who loved her very much.

It's a pity that Feng Yue is used to being free and doesn't listen at all. Although he works in Chenxing Group now, he has always been fishing for three days and posting on the net for two days. Instead, he is most interested in traveling around the world.

It was useless to persuade her, so Zhou Chen didn't care about her anymore. There are too many people who hate marriage in this world. Feng Yue can live as he wants. Anyway, their family is not short of money and can afford it.

In the blink of an eye, it came to 2004. In this year, Zhou Zhigang suffered a sudden cerebral infarction and was hospitalized. Even though Zhou Chen tried his best to rescue him, it only made Zhou Zhigang live a few more days in the end.

Because Zhou Chen and Zhou Rong were both in Jichun, Zhou Bingyi was alone in the field, so Zhou Chen called Zhou Bingyi and asked Zhou Bingyi to come back as soon as possible to see his father for the last time.

After meeting Zhou Bingyi, Zhou Zhigang couldn't hold on any longer. Before leaving, he held Zhou Chen and Zhou Bingyi's hands tightly.

"Bingkun, Bingyi, I, I can't do it anymore. After I leave, you must be well. Bing, Bingkun, don't blame it. Blame your elder brother. It's not easy for him."

Zhou Chen held Zhou Zhigang's hand tightly, his eyes were red, and he said in a deep voice, "Dad, don't worry, I'll listen to you."

Zhou Bingyi, on the other hand, was crying, and agreed to his father crying.

In the end, Zhou Zhigang's eyes swept over the three children, grandchildren, and great-grandson, and finally fell on Li Suhua's face, showing an affectionate smile, and died suddenly.

"dad……"

"grandfather……"

"Grandpa..."

…………

Zhou Zhigang's death filled Zhou's family with grief, but no matter how sad they were, they still had to prepare for the funeral.

Because the optical film is already being remodeled, the original old house is gone, so the funeral was held in the small western-style building that Zhou Chen bought before.

Although Zhou's old couple lived with Zhou Chen, Zhou Bingyi was the eldest son after all. According to domestic tradition, Zhou Zhigang's funeral should be organized by him.

It's just that he didn't grab this face, but delegated power to Zhou Chen, who assisted him from the side.

At night, Zhou Chen asked everyone else to rest, while he came to Li Suhua's room.

Ever since Zhou Zhigang passed away, Li Suhua had been silent all the time. With her hair all over her head, she looked even older and grayer.

Seeing his parents like this, Zhou Chen also felt very sad. He knew that if Li Suhua kept acting like this, he probably would not have many days left.

"Mom, don't be like this. Before our father leaves, he is most reluctant to let you go. Please cheer up and don't think about it."

Thinking of the TV drama where Li Suhua left with Zhou Zhigang after his death, he felt even more nervous.

Li Suhua looked at Zhou Chen, suddenly showed a smile, reached out and stroked Zhou Chen's face gently.

"Kun'er, Mom knows you are filial. Your father and I can live to this day because of your credit. Without you, we would have left long ago."

"Mom, don't say such things, you still have to stay with me and the children."

Instead, Li Suhua persuaded Zhou Chen: "Kun'er, don't be afraid, mom is fine, mom will always be with you..."

While talking, Li Suhua leaned on the bed and fell asleep.

Zhou Chen looked at Li Suhua who was asleep, but he didn't dare to leave. He just sat by the bed and waited quietly.

I don't know how long it has passed, Zhou Chen suddenly heard the movement, opened his eyes immediately, and then saw Li Suhua walking down from the bed.

"mom."

"Kun'er, take me to see your father."

"Mom, it's so late, you'd better have a good rest."

Li Suhua shook her head with a pale face, and said firmly, "Kun'er, promise mom."

Zhou Chen was silent for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."

Zhou Chen brought Li Suhua downstairs and stayed by Zhou Zhigang's side.

Zhou Chen didn't approach, but stood in the distance, quietly watching Li Suhua talking to Zhou Zhigang, but his face was full of sadness, he knew that Li Suhua might not be able to hold on anymore.

About an hour later, Zhou Chen saw Li Suhua bowed his head, and there was no movement anymore, tears gushed out all at once.

"mom……"

What was supposed to be a one-person funeral suddenly turned into a two-person funeral.

…………

Time flies like an arrow, and the time flies by, and four years have passed in a blink of an eye.

2008 is a major festival for everyone in China, especially during the opening of the Olympic Games, which is the focus of the whole world.

During the Olympics, Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan were in Yanjing and watched most of the games.

The two youngest children are now in college, and there are no elderly people on them, so this year, Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan basically didn't go home very much, and took her to travel and play everywhere.

However, because they wanted to watch the Olympics, they did not go abroad before, but only visited domestic tourist attractions.

Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan were sitting in the stands at this time, watching the national team's basketball game.

Although he knew the result a long time ago, the feeling of watching it live is different from watching it on TV before, so Zhou Chen watched it with gusto.

Zheng Juan was not very interested in basketball games, so she sat next to Zhou Chen and talked with Zhou Chen.

"After the game, we went to Jiajia. He said he had a girlfriend and wanted us to meet."

The two youngest children have also been admitted to college, but because they grew up in the favor of everyone, they are quite naughty and willful, a little worse than the previous two brothers.

Zhou Jia was admitted to Yanjing Union Medical College. After learning that his father was a very good doctor, he also aspired to be a doctor, so the university applied for the undergraduate, master, and doctoral studies in Peking Union Medical College.

As for Little Bell, she was admitted to the Fuda University of Shanghai, and went to Shanghai alone.

"Oh, is that right? This kid actually has a girlfriend, and he wants us to see it. It seems that he is very confident in his girlfriend."

Zhou Chen was really surprised, because Zhou Jiashu was only a sophomore after college, and he had never been in a relationship before college, which meant that he must have been in a relationship only during college.

It's not Zhou Jia's style to want them to meet just after talking for a short time, that's why he said that.

"See you then, I'll let someone arrange a hotel."

Zhou Chen took out his mobile phone and sent a message to his assistant, asking him to make arrangements immediately.

"Wow..."

At this moment, there was an uproar at the scene, and countless people stood up and shouted excitedly. It turned out that Dayao made a dunk in the game.

Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan have long been used to such cheers, because they have experienced too much these days.

For his wife Zheng Juan, Zhou Chen put all his thoughts on her and protected her from the inside out, so even though Zheng Juan's real age is nearly sixty, she looks like forty next year.

Zhou Chen's words are similar, his body is very strong and his hair is full of black hair. If they don't tell their real age, outsiders will definitely not be able to tell.

"Bingkun, is basketball really so interesting? I saw the cheers at the scene were more intense than the games we saw before."

"Of course. Although football is the number one sport in the world, in our country, basketball is more popular than football. This is because the national team has not achieved many results. If there are results, the popularity will be even higher. .”

Zhou Chen answered Zheng Juan's question with a smile.

As for basketball, he liked it better before crossing, but his level is limited, he basically doesn't play very much, he just watches others play or watch games.

For example, he has watched many NBA games, and he could recognize most of the players in the NBA in those ten years.

Thinking of the NBA, Zhou Chen suddenly came up with an idea. Anyway, he has nothing to do now. He travels with his wife every day and enjoys delicious food. Do you want to buy an NBA team for fun?
After watching the game, Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan went to the hotel by car.

On the way, Zheng Juan suddenly said: "Yesterday Yu Hong called me and said that Catch-up's health is getting worse and worse, chemotherapy has not had much effect, the doctor advised them to go back for conservative treatment."

Speaking of this, Zhou Chen's complexion became heavy. Although Sun Chanchao's life has been much better in the past ten years with his help, he still has cancer inevitably, and he has been treated for several years.

"His health is too bad now, otherwise I can help him with surgery to support him, alas, this is life."

Although he has superb medical skills, he is not a god, and it is not that he can save anyone he wants to save.

Sun Chanchao's symptoms, even he, can't do anything about it.

Zheng Juan sighed: "No one thought that the catch-up has not yet reached sixty, and it is already like this. Fortunately, their family Sun Sheng is very competitive, married a wife and had children, and lived a good life, so even if the catch-up really left , and leave with a smile.”

Zhou Chen also sighed, "In a few days, let's go back to Jichun as well, to see how to catch up, and by the way, to see big brother and the others."

Hearing Zhou Chen's words, Zheng Juan couldn't believe her ears. In the past 30 to [-] years, it was the first time she heard Zhou Chen take the initiative to go and see her elder brother and sister-in-law.

"Bingkun, are you serious?"

"real."

Zhou Chen looked through the car window at the passing vehicles outside, with a melancholy expression.

When Zhou Zhigang passed away a few years ago, he was told to reconcile with Zhou Bingyi, but after the funeral, they didn't really reconcile, and they hadn't contacted a few times in the past few years.

But although there is no contact, Zhou Chen still knows Zhou Bingyi's current situation.

Zhou Bingyi chose to retire early after working as a high-ranking official in Jichun City for several years, and now lives in Jichun City with Hao Dongmei. After retiring, the two of them also started traveling.

Because of the irregular working hours and reversed day and night, Zhou Bingyi still suffered from stomach problems and eventually developed into cancer. However, he did not hide it from Hao Dongmei, so he started treatment at the beginning, and his health is not bad now.

After so many years, Zhou Chen no longer felt the past, but after all, they had been strangers for so many years, and he was unwilling from the bottom of his heart to ask him to take the initiative to meet.

The reason why I am willing to go back to meet each other this time is because Zhou Bingyi's [-]th birthday is coming soon.

They had been at odds with each other all their lives, and for the sake of the deceased Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua, there was no need for Zhou Bingyi to leave with so much regret in the last few years of his life.

Of course, this is limited to Zhou Bingyi, Hao Dongmei said, ever since he fell out with the Hao family, he never thought about reconciling with her or anything like that.
