The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 330 Quarrel
Zhou Zhigang and Hao Gaoguan met once more than 20 years ago.

At that time, Hao Gaoguan came to the factory to express his condolences, and Zhou Zhigang was a worker representative. The first impression they had was very good when they met.

Zhou Zhigang felt that Hao Gaoguan was a man of no airs and was very considerate to the workers, but Hao Gaoguan failed to remember Zhou Zhigang.

The reason is also simple, Zhou Zhigang has changed too much, and he has been taken care of by Wang Gang in recent years.

I haven't seen him for more than [-] years, but Hao Gaoguan has changed a lot. If his eldest son Zhou Bingyi hadn't reminded him, Zhou Zhigang would not have recognized him.

When in-laws meet, some are not happy, only embarrassed.

"Bingyi, your parents are here for the ribbon cutting! Why didn't you tell us earlier?" Jin Yueji pointed out.

"My dad was invited by my younger brother, and I just found out that he will come to the ribbon-cutting ceremony." Zhou Bingyi explained.

Hao Gaoguan asked: "The Zheng Juan Charity Fund also belongs to your brother?"

Zhou Bingyi generously admitted: "Yes! Zheng Juan is the name of my brother-in-law, didn't I tell you?"

Jin Yueji has nowhere to vent her anger.

At this moment, Zhou Zhigang could also see that the atmosphere between his eldest son and his father-in-law was somewhat delicate.

"Mom Dongmei, my name is Zhou Zhigang, and I'm Bingyi's father. Sometimes this kid does things without consideration, please take care of me." Zhou Zhigang said to Jin Yueji.

Jin Yueji immediately put on a smiling face, and said to Zhou Zhigang: "My father-in-law, we have always wanted to meet you, but every time we couldn't get the chance, seeing you here today is also a matter of concern."

Zhou Zhigang said: "Isn't it! This is also a surprise, you two will go to cut the ribbon with me?"

If it was Zhou Zhigang before, he would definitely not talk to Jin Yueji like this.

He had seen so many leaders in the past two days that he no longer had the awe he had before Hao Gaoguan and Jin Yueji, and could treat them as equals.

Seeing that Zhou Zhigang was upright and generous, Jin Yueji looked at him differently.

"Old Hao, shall we go?" Jin Yueji asked Hao Gaoguan.

Hao Gaoguan saw a lot of people gathered in the audience, and some reporters pointed their cameras in this direction, so it is really inappropriate to leave now.

"Okay, let's go with my father-in-law." Hao Gaoguan pondered.

Peng Xinsheng came over and said, "Madam, here is your place."

Jin Yueji saw Peng Xinsheng pointing to a corner.

"Xiao Peng, why did you arrange my father-in-law and mother-in-law in such a biased position?" Zhou Bingyi frowned.

"The positions are determined by Mr. Zhou. In the middle are Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zheng, your parents, and the leaders of Jiang, Liao and Jichun. The place is too small to stand open." Peng Xinsheng apologized.

Zhou Bingyi said dissatisfied: "Can't you make a move? It's really impossible to give up my position."

Zhou Zhigang also said: "I don't need to stand in the middle, I'd better leave it to my in-laws!"

Peng Xinsheng wondered: "Mr. Zhou, there will be your introduction speech soon. It is inappropriate for you to stand on the side, and the position is better. The reporter's camera position is fixed, and I am afraid it will be too late to adjust."

Hao Gaoguan said in a deep voice: "It's okay, it's the same wherever you stand, don't make things difficult for this little comrade."

Peng Xinsheng said gratefully: "Thank you, Senior Officer Hao, for your understanding. There is one more thing to inform you. After the tailoring is over, Mr. Zhou has prepared a dinner at the Shunfeng Hotel. I hope you will take part in it."

Hao Gaoguan nodded, and then felt a little dizzy.

"Old Hao, are you okay! Do you want to go back and have a rest?" Jin Yueji said nervously.

Peng Xinsheng said: "We have arranged for an ambulance team to be on call. They are all experienced doctors from large hospitals. Would you like to show Gaoguan Hao?"

"No need, we brought our own medicine, but the ribbon-cutting ceremony may not be available, can you arrange a car to take us back?" Jin Yueji asked in a low voice.

Peng Xinsheng wondered: "The cars are all sent to pick up the guests. The place here is a bit out of the way. We need cars to pick up and drop off. There are no empty cars for now."

Jin Yueji and Hao Gaoguan looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.

"I can persevere, let's leave after the ribbon-cutting ceremony!" Hao Gaoguan stood firm and said.

Zhou Zhigang hit Zhou Bingyi quietly.

Zhou Bingyi didn't realize it, and said to Zhou Zhigang: "Dad, the ceremony is about to start, let's go there quickly!"

Zhou Zhigang was anxious, but he couldn't reprimand his son for not being considerate in front of Hao Gaoguan.

Zhou Bingyi dragged his father to the middle of the rostrum, and then the music started, and the cutting ceremony officially started, Zhou Zhigang was speechless.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony was very grand. Not only the person in charge of the charity foundation, namely Zheng Juan, took the stage to speak, but even the leaders of Jiangliao also took the stage to express their gratitude and support to the foundation.

Then a beautiful host, holding an ordinary shovel, asked Zhou Zhigang to move the first shovel, expressing the hope that the elementary school would officially start construction.

Jin Yueji and her husband stood by the side the whole time, watching the Zhou family become the focus of the audience in high spirits, and felt a lot of emotions for a moment.

After the ceremony, Hao Gaoguan and Jin Yueji wanted to leave immediately, but Peng Xinsheng came to invite them to dinner again.

The foundation prepared a banquet and invited representatives from the surrounding areas and villages to have a meal together.

There are more than [-] tables for the banquet, and it is arranged at the Shunfeng Hotel. The scene is very grand.

After Hao Gaoguan and Jin Yueji arrived at the hotel, they found that Peng Xinsheng had arranged them at the outermost table, which was closest to the entrance of the banquet hall.

The Zhou family was naturally at the main table, accompanied by the leaders of Jiangliao, and of course Ma Shouchang and his wife.

Because they were too far away, Zhou Zhigang and Ma Shouchang did not see Hao Gaoguan and Jin Yueji.

"Let's go." Hao Gaoguan and his wife finished their meal and left the hotel.

Now that we arrived in Jichun, Peng Xinsheng naturally didn't need to arrange a car, and it was convenient for the two of them to go home.

Hao Dongmei was a little surprised to see her parents running back.

"Mom and Dad, didn't you go to the ribbon-cutting ceremony? You came back so early?"

Jin Yueji asked: "Did you already know about this?"

Hao Dongmei asked with a puzzled look, "Know what?"

Jin Yueji said: "The charity foundation is owned by brother Bingyi. Is he inviting us this time to prove the strength of the Zhou family?"

Hao Dongmei said in surprise, "Mom, I can't understand what are you talking about."

Hao Gaoguan ran back to the room directly, while Jin Yueji stayed in the living room to talk to Hao Dongmei.

Hao Dongmei figured out the ins and outs from her mother's words one after another.

"Brother Bingyi is really capable now, he is a great entrepreneur and a great philanthropist." Jin Yueji said.

After Hao Dongmei learned the whole story, she was also shocked. She didn't expect her husband and younger brother to develop so well!

"Mom, is this all true? Bingyi's younger brother is so rich now?!" Hao Dongmei was surprised.

"Why, you and Bingyi are husband and wife, and he didn't even tell you such an important matter." Jin Yueji said strangely.

"Before I lived apart from him for a long time, I rarely paid attention to his family affairs. I only knew that his younger brother was a successful writer and made some money!" Hao Dongmei explained.

Jin Yueji looked at her daughter with a complicated face, and asked: "Dongmei, when you come back, you need to talk to him about Bingyi. Their family keeps such important things from you. Does he still take you as his wife?"

Hao Dongmei was also a little annoyed by what Jin Yueji said.

Zhou Bingyi didn't come back until nearly twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. As soon as he got home, he found that the atmosphere was not right.

Hao Gaoguan and Jin Yueji were already asleep, and Hao Dongmei was sitting alone in the living room with only a small light on, which shocked Zhou Bingyi.

"Why don't you turn on the light, it's so scary?" Zhou Bingyi said to Hao Dongmei.

"What did you do to scare me?" Hao Dongmei said in a deep voice.

Zhou Bingyi had long expected that Hao Dongmei would be angry, and said with a smile, "What can I do to my conscience."

Hao Dongmei said angrily, "Are you deliberately humiliating my parents today?"

Zhou Bingyi said calmly: "How is it possible! What you said is too serious."

Hao Dongmei said angrily: "You still said it wasn't a humiliation, but you dragged my parents all the way to tailoring, but left it aside, and arranged the most marginal position for the dinner at night, how could they have received such treatment."

Zhou Bingyi said: "Do you think what happened today is a humiliation to them?"

"Isn't it?" Hao Dongmei said confidently.

"Have you ever thought that if my parents were changed today, would you still be so angry?"

Hearing this, Hao Dongmei suddenly remembered the time when her parents invited Zhou's family to have dinner, but they missed the appointment.

"Are you doing it on purpose, wanting to take revenge for what happened back then?" Hao Dongmei asked in surprise.

"It's not as dark as you think!" Zhou Bingyi said.
