"Old Ou, it's only nine o'clock, why are you back?"

In the corridor, a middle-aged man in his fifties met his neighbor.

Because this is an old community, there is no elevator, and residents can only rely on climbing stairs.

The neighbor was carrying a garbage bag in his hand, probably planning to go downstairs to throw the garbage.

"There is no business today, so I closed the door early."

The middle-aged man who used to close the store at 10 o'clock in the evening smiled and said, "I am an ordinary grassroots commoner, wearing sweatshirts and cheap suit pants, and on my feet there were dozens of leather shoes I bought from the stall at night, honest and simple."

"I don't think so, I saw it. It must be because your daughter came back today that you closed so early. The girl Hengbo is getting more and more beautiful now, like a star, so I didn't dare to say hello."

The middle-aged man laughed, greeted his neighbors for a few words, and continued to go upstairs.

He took out the key and opened the rusty iron door, then opened the wooden door inside, and the man entered the room.

"Here I'm back."

Zhou Siping, a woman sitting on the sofa in a daze, quickly got up and squeezed out a smile.

The middle-aged man nodded and closed the door again.

"Where is Hengbo?"

Zhou Siping smiled a little reluctantly.

"It's in the house."

"She bought Xiaoqing a cell phone."

Although she has been a stepmother for more than ten years, she still has to tell her husband about this kind of thing in advance.

This is what you need to pay attention to when reorganizing your family.

"They have always had a good relationship with each other, much better than with us."

The man forced a smile.

His stepdaughter has a barrier against him, so he can't feel it.

It’s not that he has tried hard, but it has achieved little success.

Since my stepdaughter went out to explore, it has been almost impossible to say a few words a year.

"She brought you a gift, too."

Zhou Siping walked into the room and took a belt over.

i, it's no less valuable than that Apple phone.

However, when he brought it back, Gu Hengbo tore off the price tag and threw it away.

"Do you like it?"

The man looked surprised. Although he did not recognize this as a world-famous luxury brand, his stepdaughter's filial piety still made him very happy.

"This girl is intent."

He took the belt, looked at it, and then looked up at his wife.

"What did she buy for you?"

Zhou Siping looked awkward and didn't say a word.

Obviously, I prepared gifts for my stepfather and younger brother, but this mother was missed by Gu Hengbo.

The man's smile slowly disappeared and he sighed.

"This child has been blaming you for so many years."

Zhou Siping shook her head.

"It's not her fault. I, the mother, am sorry for her."

"How can you blame you all?"

Ouyang Zhenhua held his wife's hand.

"No one wants to give their children a broken family, and we have no choice. Don't be too sad. I believe that one day, she will understand it after all."

Zhou Siping nodded silently.

"By the way, did you tell her about that?"

Ouyang Zhenhua asked.

"No, before I could mention it to her, she went back to the room. This child always said that I didn't have to worry about her affairs, but she was a piece of meat that fell from me, so how could I not worry?"

Zhou Siping said worriedly: "You said she is already twenty-five. Which girl of this age we know has not yet gotten married? At the beginning, I opposed her going to a big city. I didn't learn much from other things, but I learned this concept of marriage."

"Don't worry, let me talk to her."

Ouyang Zhenhua looked at the paint-deep door and smiled and said, "She would give me some face to her uncle."

Zhou Siping smiled bitterly.

"That's all."

Ouyang Zhenhua handed her belt to put it back on, and then went around her son's room first.

He opened a small shop and could see it all his life at a glance, but he didn't want his son to live a life like him.

If a poor family wants to turn around, the college entrance examination should be the only springboard.

"dad."

Seeing his father come in, Ouyang Qing immediately shouted.

"I heard that your sister bought you a cell phone?"

Ouyang Zhenhua asked.

Ouyang Qing nodded a little nervously, obviously worried that his father would take away his phone.

"Don't worry, it's your sister's gift to you, dad won't want it."

Ouyang Zhenhua smiled, but then he reminded: "Your sister buys you a mobile phone, not for you to play, but study must be the first priority. You also know that because your family was poor, your sister should have gone to college, but she went out to work early. You can't waste the opportunity that your sister didn't have at the beginning."

Ouyang Qing's expression immediately became solemn and he nodded heavily.

"Dad, I know, I will work hard."

"Um."

Ouyang Zhenhua nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, you can study."

He walked out, came to the next door, raised his hand, and slowly knocked on the door.

"Hengbo, I'm uncle."

His treatment did seem to be a little different from Zhou Siping. Soon, the door opened.

Although Gu Hengbo, who appeared in front of him, his attitude was not cold.

"Uncle, you're back."

She shouted.

Ouyang Zhenhua nodded and smiled.

"Thank you for your gift. I like it very much. But next time I don't have to spend so much money. We are a family and don't have to see you so much. If you come back often, it's the biggest gift for me and your mother."

Gu Hengbo didn't say anything.

Ouyang Zhenhua was silent.

"Can you talk to you?"

Gu Hengbo looked at him and nodded for a moment.

The two walked to the living room.

Zhou Siping, who was standing in the living room, squeezed her hands and sat down on the sofa with the two of them.

After pondering for a while, Ouyang Zhenhua spoke slowly.

"Hengbo, you have been developing in big cities over the years. You must be able to see your uncle and your mother. But no matter what, men are married when they are old and women are married when they are old. This principle is the same everywhere. The hard work you have been through over the years, and you have never thought about finding someone to share the burden together?"

Gu Hengbo glanced at his mother sitting next to him. In fact, she had known for a long time that the other party called herself out and most of the things she wanted to talk about were about this.

"Uncle, just say it just by saying something."

Ouyang Zhenhua was a little embarrassed, coughed lightly, and said truthfully: "That's right, uncle knows a boss who runs a food processing factory. His family is very rich. He has a son, who happens to be about the same age as you, so uncle and your mother were thinking, can you two young people know each other, even if you make friends, it would be good."

Zhou Siping next to her also kept nodding.

Gu Hengbo chuckled softly.

"Did uncle arrange a blind date for me?"

Ouyang Zhenhua said a little unnaturally: "It's not a question, it's just a meeting. It's naturally the best to have this fate. If not, that's not enough."

"I take good care of our family. Your uncle asked him to buy goods, and basically waited for the goods to be sold before collecting the money."

Zhou Siping added.

Gu Hengbo was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Okay, then let's meet."

Ouyang Zhenhua and Zhou Siping met each other and their eyes were full of surprise.
