Passerby's Guide to Eating Watermelons

Chapter 282: World of Ages 34: Wrong Idea

Zuo Zhizhi thought the same thing. Of Uncle Zhao's three sons who were away from home, the eldest and second oldest had disappeared without a trace and were most likely dead in this era.

But after Zuo Zhizhi checked, she found that only the second brother was actually dead. His death in the war was a fact that had been clearly notified.

As for the eldest brother, it is almost the same as if he had passed away, as he is now working somewhere else under an assumed name.

I'm afraid he won't be able to come back for a while.

As for the youngest, the third child, after learning about his father's situation, he also made up his mind to transfer his job back.

Changing jobs is not just talk, so there has been no progress so far.

However, Zuo Zhizhi, who was familiar with the plot, knew that it wouldn't be long before the third brother would come back.

On the one hand, my father is old, and I am naturally worried about him being alone outside.

On the other hand, there are many strange things happening in the yard, and he can't stay here any longer.

What we are mainly talking about here are some people in the yard who want to wipe out the whole family.

Although Uncle Zhao has a daughter who is married locally, for some people, a daughter who is married off is like spilled water, which is no different from not having any children at all.

This gave some people an opportunity to take advantage of the situation. They believed that Uncle Zhao had no relatives and only had a daughter with whom he had an average relationship. If they allowed Uncle Zhao to recognize their own child as his grandson, then after Uncle Zhao's death, the child would be able to inherit all of his inheritance.

Although this matter is not 100%, it is still worth trying as long as it is possible. After all, they don't need to pay anything at all, they just need to give Uncle Zhao some care.

For example, what Zuo Zhizhi saw before.

They often brought their children to Uncle Zhao's house. Although they asked Uncle Zhao to help look after the children, they actually did not express any feelings. Instead, they wanted to cultivate a relationship between the two.

It's just that a family that can come up with such an ideology is simply incapable of educating their children properly. Although they are young, they hear their family members coveting Uncle Zhao's property every day, and they can't help but show it when they get along with each other.

Adults may hide it, but for children, it is impossible for them to care so much.

Mr. Zhao, who was originally an elderly widower, thought he had met kind neighbors, but when he realized what they were thinking, he couldn't help but urge his son, hoping that they could come as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Uncle Zhao's communication was effective. Although the third son was busy with work outside, for his father's sake, he still tried his best and got the opportunity to be transferred back, which prevented their family from succeeding.

But this family became increasingly displeased with Uncle Zhao's family.

After this family moved back, they made trouble every now and then, but they were the protagonists after all, so they were not afraid.

After checking the details, Zuo Zhizhi finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least there would be no problems with Uncle Zhao's family.

It won't be long before they come back. Now the family is just talking about it. Although they have taken the initiative to mention the matter of recognition several times, Uncle Zhao is reluctant to agree, so there is naturally nothing they can do.

No matter how you look at it, this matter is someone else's family's business. Without other people's permission, I naturally cannot get involved.

However, when encountering such a situation, I have to sigh that Uncle Zhao's family is indeed pitiful.

Just looking at this family's resume, Zuo Zhizhi seemed to see the golden merits.

The retired veteran raised four children. The eldest son went to do scientific research under a false name, the second son died on the battlefield, and the third son worked in another place.

Such a good person should not be let down or be plotted against by others.

Fortunately, Uncle Zhao’s third son is the protagonist of the period novel, so he is not plotted against.

We can only hope that they will get better and better in the future.

After that, Zuo Zhizhi worked normally and she was now completely familiar with the job.

Although there is no chance of promotion, it is already pretty good to have such an easy, stable job without worries.

In this day and age, anyone with a job is the object of everyone's envy. Even her humble position has many people envying her.

But at this moment, Zuo Zhizhi suddenly remembered, why hasn't Brother Gu Jiqing and Sister-in-law come back yet?

You have to know that they had already discussed getting married last year, and they were kicked out of the house for this reason. Although it cannot be said that they were kicked out of the house with nothing, it is definitely not as good as their previous treatment.

Even the salesperson job that was previously agreed to be given to Zuo Zhizhi would rather leave it vacant than give it to herself.

Waiting for such a long time for a job, I wonder how much favors the Gu family has to pay!

But this person really can't stand being talked about. Naturally, no one cares when no one mentions him. But after Zuo Zhizhi and Gu Jiqing mentioned him once in a conversation, they heard that the two of them would come back.

There was no way. Although the two of them had already moved out and lived separately, it was impossible for them to stay away from their parents while they were still alive.

Therefore, Zuo Zhizhi would buy some things and send them to both sets of parents' homes every now and then. The things were not that valuable, at least they were very ordinary to her, but in the eyes of others, they took a lot of effort.

Because of this, Gu's mother treats Zuo Zhizhi better.

Although he had no major dissatisfaction with Zuo Zhizhi before, but now seeing Zuo Zhizhi come in and looking at what he was holding in his hand, he welcomed her into the house with a smile on his face.

"Look at you guys buying things here every day. Your dad and I will take care of ourselves. If you have money, buy some food for yourselves. Don't be stingy!"

Zuo Zhizhi just nodded in agreement, but she would continue to do it next time.

They are just some not very valuable things. Both parties are happy to get them back, and it is also face-saving to talk about them to others.

In this era, reputation is more important than anything else, so it is naturally impossible to fall behind at this time.

Zuo Zhizhi didn't treat this place as her home, but came here once every few weeks as if completing a task.

Although my parents are not yet old enough to need support, it is still beneficial to visit them often.

At least now, for example, my parents can't help but talk about my eldest brother and sister-in-law.

"This boss and his family are really outrageous. They promised to come back immediately, but after all this time during the New Year, they still haven't come!"

"As soon as I call them, they say they're using connections, but who would take months to get connections? It's obvious there's something else going on!"

The tone of Gu's mother's words was not very good, but it was understandable.

At that time, the eldest brother Gu Jiqing wanted to transfer the work relationship back, and the second elder brother of the Gu family immediately agreed to use his connections without saying a word.

In other words, the eldest brother of the Gu family wants to come back immediately.

In addition, they have already left the relationship, which means there is no reason for them to delay returning.

But the eldest brother of the Gu family has not come back yet. Considering all the circumstances, there is only one possibility: the eldest brother of the Gu family’s girlfriend was delayed there for something, and that’s why it has been delayed until now!
