Chapter 631: Zhou Family Visits
Li Zhenmin didn't know the specific situation of Luo Shibin and Shui Ziliu. He didn't want to know, nor did he need to know. He couldn't feel any sympathy for these dregs of society.
Regardless of whether it was due to life pressures or other reasons, he always advocated that the good should not be oppressed. In short, one should not harm the interests of ordinary people just because one's own life is not good.
At this time, Li Zhenmin and his group had already arrived at Zhou Bingkun's house.
"Professor Li...Professor Li, this...this is my home..."
Zhou Bingkun introduced himself nervously, speaking a little haltingly, as he was somewhat afraid that Li Zhenmin would dislike the messiness of his house.
Li Zhenmin naturally saw through the other party's mind, so he smiled and said, "Some things are forced by conditions, and some things are indeed the insistence of the heart. Some places are dirty and messy even with big doors and walls, and some places are simple but clean and simple. If the house is dirty, it can be cleaned, but if the heart is dirty, that's difficult. I think this place makes me feel very comfortable."
"Ah?" Zhou Bingkun obviously didn't expect Li Zhenmin to say that.
At this moment, a thought came to his mind, that is... he seemed so stupid in front of this man named Professor Li.
It seemed as if all my thoughts were seen through by the other party.
It was the first time he had such a feeling, and the other party was so generous, which made him suddenly feel great respect and goodwill for Li Zhenmins.
At this time, Li Zhenmin added: "Don't call me Professor Li anymore. I'm older than you. Just call me Brother Zhenmin like Chunyan does."
Li Zhenmin's face may look like he is in his thirties or even forties, but his actual age is 48, which is not young. Zhou Bingkun is only 27 years old.
In terms of age, Li Zhenmin can be Zhou Bingkun's father, but Qiao Chunyan already calls him brother, so Li Zhenmin might as well let Zhou Bingkun call him uncle.
"Ah?" Zhuo Bingkun was stunned again.
While he was still a little bit in disbelief, Li Zhenmin was the first to enter the yard.
Zhou Bingkun followed immediately.
Qiao Chunyan and Li Wanying in front had already entered the house and started eating quickly with the people in the house.
It is worth mentioning that Li Wanying is already in her thirties and only looks young. Outsiders would not think she is an old girl. In fact, Li Tieguo is very worried about his daughter's marriage. If she had married at a normal age, Li Wanying's children would be in junior high school now.
Part of the reason why Li Wanying went out with Li Zhenmin this time was because she didn't dare to face Li Tieguo's urging to get married.
"Ah? Bingkun is injured? Where is he? Is it serious?"
"Aunt Suhua, don't get excited, don't get excited, Bingkun is fine, he's just behind..."
A woman's scream was heard from the room, followed by hurried footsteps, and a woman in her forties ran out quickly, her face full of worry.
Following behind him was a beautiful woman with pigtails, who was estimated to be about the same age as Zhou Bingkun.
Li Zhenmin recognized the beautiful woman behind him at a glance. She was Zheng Juan, Zhou Bingkun's wife, the woman who had never had a good life in her life.
That face would be worthy of a superstar even in later generations.
The older and slightly haggard woman who rushed out first should be Zhou Bingkun's mother Li Suhua.
"Bingkun..."
Li Suhua was about to say something when she was stopped by a rough and thick hand.
Zhou Zhigang followed him out. When he saw Li Zhenmin's face, his brain went into a short circuit. He only reacted when he heard his wife speak. Fearing that his wife would say something she shouldn't, he grabbed his wife and nervously said, "Comrade, hurry up, come in."
Then he turned around and said to Zhang Juan, "Juan'er, go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy some meat and wine. We have guests coming to our house, so buy more."
Others were still unable to react.
Li Zhenmin and Zhou Bingkun had already arrived at the door. Li Zhenmin greeted them politely: "Sister-in-law, Brother Zhou, hello, I am Li Zhenmin. Thank you Comrade Zhou Bingkun for your help today. I have come to thank you specially."
He didn't realize that Zhou Bingkun had called him brother before, but now he called him mother and sister-in-law.
Li Suhua glanced at Li Zhenmin, then at his son who was bandaged but not injured elsewhere. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. Seeing how polite he was, he also mechanically and politely replied, "Come in, come in."
Qiao Chunyan's mother was still at Zhou's house at this time. Seeing this scene, she quickly said, "Leader, you guys chat first. I'll go buy you some food. I'll treat you to this meal."
Deng Qiuju has always had a good eye. Although she is a bit materialistic at times, she is generally kind and has always been good to the Zhou family.
Now seeing this situation, she naturally wants to show her performance.
Zhou Zhigang naturally saw what Deng Qiuju was thinking, but he didn't feel disgusted. After all, it was Deng Qiuju who acted as the 'matchmaker' for his family to be in a relationship with Li Zhenmin, so he immediately agreed, "Thank you very much, Juan'er, go shopping with your Aunt Qiuju."
Qiao Chunyan was more tactful and said, "No, no, I'll go. You still have to clean up your house. Juan'er can help more if she stays at home. Leave the shopping and cooking to me and my mom. Just let us have a meal when the time comes."
After saying that, he pulled his mother out without giving her a chance to refuse.
Zheng Juan was still a little confused. Seeing this, Zhou Zhigang had no choice but to invite Li Zhenmin, "Come on, have a seat. Our home is simple, please don't despise us."
As he said this, he quickly winked and gestured to Li Suhua, asking her to serve tea and water.
Zheng Juan reacted faster and said, "Mom, you're not feeling well, take a rest first, I'll do it."
As he said this, he ran to serve tea and water. Li Wanying was also very familiar with him and followed him.
Li Suhua also wanted to go with them, but Li Zhenmin quickly said, "Sister-in-law, you are so frustrated. Just leave it to the children. Come sit with us and take a rest."
Zhou Zhigang also said: "Well, what are you doing standing there? If you are not feeling well, just sit down. Why are you worrying about that?"
Then he looked at his silly son again, turned to Li Zhenmin with an embarrassed look, and said, "My little son is not very smart. If he causes you trouble, just beat him up, don't spoil him."
Zhou Bingkun subconsciously retorted: "Dad, how can you say these things in front of others? My eldest brother and second sister are smarter than me, but I don't see them helping the family."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua both paused.
Zhou Zhigang immediately realized that he had spoken too quickly, and his little son chose to be stubborn at this time. Now he was being laughed at, wasn't he?
Li Zhenmin saw this and tried to smooth things over, "It's okay, it's okay. Bingkun is honest and kind, and his innocent heart is precious. If it weren't for him, the criminals would have succeeded today."
At this time, Li Wanying and Zheng Juan also brought out tea and pastries.
Seeing that the atmosphere had eased somewhat, Zhou Zhigang invited Li Zhenmin to have tea and further eased the atmosphere by saying, "Can you tell me what exactly happened?"
