Chapter 243 Zhou Family Members
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye we bid farewell to 1981 and officially entered 1982. It was bitterly cold in Kyoto in mid-January, and people on the streets were all wearing thick clothes.
Kyoto University of Political Science and Law, in the male dormitory room 206.
"Oh, time flies. It's time for holiday again." Wei Huatian sighed as he packed his things.
"You have to go back, otherwise I'm afraid my sister-in-law will come to kill you!" Gao Yuliang glanced at him and said.
"Yes, Datian, your sister-in-law must miss you all the time!" Yuan Mu also laughed.
"Of course I am. That's my charm!" Wei Huatian pretended.
"Haha!" The three of them laughed.
"By the way, Lao Gao, are you planning to study for a master's degree here?" Yuan Mu looked at Gao Yuliang and said.
"Yes, the teacher wants me to be here." Gao Yuliang nodded.
"What about after you finish graduate school? Stay in Kyoto or go back to the Eastern Province?"
"Maybe I will go back to East Province. After all, that's my hometown. I want to go back there to teach and educate people!" Gao Yuliang smiled faintly.
"What about Huifen? What should she do?"
"Yes, what will happen to Huifen if you leave?" Wei Huatian also said.
"I'm also worried about this now. Huifen wants me to stay in Kyoto. Perhaps I can have greater development in Kyoto, but I still want to go back to East Province. After all, I have lived there for more than 20 years and I can't bear to leave!" Gao Yuliang shook his head with a wry smile.
"Lao Gao, don't be too upset. Discuss it with Huifen when the time comes. Also, talk to the teacher. The teacher is not an unreasonable person and should be able to understand your thoughts." Yuan Mu comforted.
"Well, it's okay. There's still time. I still have to study in Kyoto for at least three or four years. We'll talk about it then." Gao Yuliang waved his hand.
"That's right, don't be so anxious." Yuan Mu nodded with a smile.
"Hey, Lao Gao, when do you and Huifen plan to get married? I see Huifen admires you quite a lot!" Wei Huatian said with a smile.
"Hey, what admiration do you mean? We just admire each other." Gao Yuliang rolled his eyes.
"Yes! We appreciate each other!" Wei Huatian said sarcastically.
"Haha, that's right, Lao Gao, when are you planning to come and propose?" Yuan Mu also joined in.
"It's only been a short time. Let's talk about it after graduation."
"You have to hurry up. As far as I know, Huifen has a lot of suitors in school. One of you is in the School of Political Science and Law, and the other is in the Normal University. Although they are not far away, they are not in the same school after all. You have to be careful!" Yuan Mu reminded.
"That's not possible. I still have some confidence. The love between Huifen and I is sacred!" Gao Yuliang said confidently.
. . . . . . . . . . . . .
Yuan Mu does not plan to go back to Ningyang for the New Year this year. He has been with Zhou Xiaobai for such a long time, and they are about to get married, but he has never spent the New Year at her home. So he has decided to spend the New Year at Zhou's home this year.
After the holiday, Yuan Mu did not return to the police dormitory, but lived directly in Zhou's house, where there was a room specially prepared for him by Zhou's mother.
He had also informed the people at the compound that he would not be going back for the New Year this year, but he still wanted to go back to visit. However, that would be after the New Year, so he planned to drive back. As for whose car to drive, of course he would borrow one from Zhou Zhennan.
He is the commander, so it would be easy for him to take one car. Besides, there are too many people on the train at this time, all of them are going home for the New Year. Yuan Mu really doesn't want to squeeze in.
The Chinese New Year is celebrated early this year, with the 24th being New Year's Eve, so Yuan Mu and Zhou Xiaobai went out early to buy New Year's goods.
They said they were buying New Year's goods, but in fact they were just out for a stroll, because the Zhou family didn't need to buy any New Year's goods at all.
During this period of time, Yuan Mu finally witnessed what it meant to have a busy house. It could be said that the threshold of the Zhou family was almost trampled down. There were so many people, all of them came to visit Zhou Zhennan.
Without exception, these people were all Zhou Zhennan's former subordinates. They gave him all kinds of gifts, but perhaps they also understood his temper, so no one dared to give him anything too expensive.
They were all common items, such as cigarettes, alcohol, tea, and some wild game and mountain products. I heard that someone came all the way from the southernmost part just to visit Zhou Zhennan.
Of course, Yuan Mu also benefited from this period. These people who came might not be important in Zhou Zhennan's eyes, but in Yuan Mu's eyes, these people held high positions.
Although many people came, Zhou Zhennan did not meet everyone. The people he met were those he valued the most. Most of the people came just to keep him company and could not even enter the military compound.
These people include those from the military, all of whom are generals and above, and those from local governments, all of whom are vice-ministerial level and above. Zhou Zhennan also introduced Yuan Mu, his future son-in-law.
These days, his face was stiff from smiling. Of course, these people were also very nice to him, calling him Comrade Xiao Yuan in a friendly manner.
This was also the first time he witnessed the horror of the Zhou family. This force is no joke.
A few days before the Spring Festival, some key members of the Zhou family also returned, such as Zhou Zhenjun, his wife, Wang Fuhua, and son Zhou Quanfeng, whom I met last time.
Zhou Zhenjun is Zhou Zhennan’s biological brother, and he also has Zhou Zhennan’s uncle’s younger brother, Zhou Honghai, his wife Li Ke, and his son Zhou Quanran.
There is also Zhou Zhennan’s other younger brother, Zhou Jiefang, his wife Sun Guifang, and his daughter, Zhou Tian.
There are also some distant cousins and so on, anyway, there are quite a lot of people, but these people basically work in factories, banks, etc. He is also a leader, but not a very high-ranking official, he just has a closer relationship with Zhou Zhennan.
The Zhou family is almost spread across the military, political, and business circles. For example, Zhou Zhennan and Zhou Honghai are both in the military. Zhou Honghai is 45 years old and is the deputy chief of staff of the Northwest Military Region. His son Zhou Quanran is also a soldier. He is 20 years old this year and has been in the army for only two years.
The one in the political circle is naturally Zhou Zhenjun, a deputy ministerial-level cadre with real power. His son Zhou Quanfeng is 23 years old this year and is currently in college. This kid is a good student and studied Chinese at Tsinghua University. He is currently a senior and will graduate next year.
If nothing unexpected happens, Zhou Quanfeng will also go into politics. Of course, if he wants to join the army, Zhou Zhenjun will probably be happier, but that is almost impossible. If he wants to join the army, he will not go to Tsinghua University.
The one in the Zhou family who is engaged in business is Zhou Jiefang. He is also the youngest one, only 33 years old this year. His daughter Zhou Tian is only five years old. He is engaged in real estate business in the south and is said to have made quite a lot of money. This is natural. With such a big tree to lean on, it is hard not to do well.
