He really couldn't open his eyes. Just as he was about to go back to sleep, someone knocked on the door. He went to open the door and saw his mother standing at the door with a straight face. Behind her was Qiu Li, who was making faces at him.
Zhao Di reprimanded, "How old are you to bully your little brother?"
He Zhou said, "I didn't."
Zhao Di said, "Get up quickly. Don't sleep anymore. Your second aunt and third aunt are here."
"Got it." He Zhou had no choice but to get dressed and go downstairs.
After going downstairs, he greeted his second aunt, Lai Di, and third aunt, Pan Di, before entering the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face.
He went to the door to smoke a cigarette and found that the car lights were on. He opened the door and Qiu Li was listening to music while studying the buttons on the center console.
He Zhou pulled out the car key.
Qiu Li said unhappily, "Brother, can you lend it to me for two days?"
He Zhou said, "Let's wait until you get your driver's license."
Qiu Li said, "I know how to drive a long time ago. It's just that I don't have the time to get a driver's license. I'll take the test during the summer."
He Zhou ignored him, took the car keys to his bedroom upstairs, and locked the door.
He was really afraid that this brat would drive his car and cause trouble for him.
At noon, Pan Guangcai's family invited him to lunch. He went and chatted with Liu Jiawei and the others at the fish pond while drunk.
He couldn't help but ridicule his cousin.
Chu Dongpo said, "I'm going to beat him up. This has nothing to do with you."
He Zhou rolled his eyes at him. What a stupid idea. Who didn't know that they were in the same boat?
Besides, instructing outsiders to beat up their own relatives was something that only villains would do.
Liu Jiawei laughed. "It's easy to teach him a lesson. My cousin is in County No.1 Middle School. If he had a conflict with your cousin, he would have beaten him up long ago."
He Zhou grinned. "Then you don't have to worry about me, and you don't have to care about my face."
When he got home, Second Aunt and Third Aunt had already left. Only Qiu Li was still there. He was lying on the sofa playing with his phone.
Qiu Li said, "Aunt asked me to squeeze into your bed at night."
He Zhou said, "Dream on. There are plenty of empty beds. If there's one for you, stay away from me."
After drinking a glass of water, his mouth was still dry, so he refilled another glass.
Qiu Li said, "Why don't you lend me your computer for a while?"
He Zhou said, "There's a computer in the study. Go play by yourself. Don't use my computer."
Qiu Li said, "The configuration of the study room is not good. It's stuck."
He Zhou ignored him and went to Second Grandma's side.
A group of old ladies had gathered together to play mahjong. When they saw He Zhou, they greeted him with a smile and went back to their games.
He Zhou was so bored that he fell asleep on the sofa in the living room.
On the third day of Chinese New Year, she went to the provincial capital. Some of the logistics outlets were already open for business. She needed to take charge of the overall situation.
He Zhou was bored of staying at home, so he drove to the county alone.
Fatty Qu Yang was very happy to see him.
He Zhou asked, "Are you guys resting?"
Fatty nodded and shook his head.
He Zhou asked, "Are we resting or not?"
Qufu answered on his behalf, "I didn't rest from the 28th to the second day of the New Year. I only took a break today, so I still have to go to work on the seventh day of the New Year."
He Zhou said, "I'll take you out to play."
Fatty asked excitedly, "Where are we going?"
He Zhou smiled and said, "We'll go wherever you want to go."
Fatty said, "Let's go to the arcade."
He Zhou looked at Qufu.
Qufu smiled and said, "You guys go ahead. I'm starting school in a few days. I have a lot of homework to do, so I don't have time to play with you guys."
He Zhou smiled and said, "You're such a busy person. How do you feel? Do you have any hope?"
Qufu said, "I don't even want to answer your question."
He Zhou asked, "Then are you choosing Fudan University or Tsinghua University?"
Qufu raised his head and said, "It depends on my mood."
Qu Yang wanted to go out with He Zhou, but his father stopped him.
Qu Yang's father had set up a fruit stall by the side of the road, selling stir-fried chestnuts. People came and went during the Spring Festival, so business was good. Naturally, he did not want to let Qu Yang go.
Qu Yang used a big iron spatula to flip around in the big pot. He Zhou moved a stool and helped sell the fruits, occasionally putting a chestnut into his mouth.
Actually, the work was very simple. It was nothing more than weighing on the scale and collecting the money. However, he was most afraid of peeling the sugar cane and pineapple skins. It was too troublesome.
Occasionally, Qu Fu would come out to help, but after a while, he would be scolded by Qu Yang's father into the house. The reason was naturally that he did not want to delay his studies.
After working at the Qu Family for two consecutive days for free, he had a better understanding of these small businesses. Such a shabby stall actually made more than three thousand a day. After deducting the capital, there was still a profit of five to six hundred.
However, good business only lasted for a few days during the Spring Festival.
According to Qu Yang's father, they usually made a profit of a few dozen yuan.
Every day, after eating at the Qu Family's house, he would bring Fatty to the arcade. They could spend two yuan and play for a night.
When they were almost done, the two would find a barbecue stall, drink some wine, and go home to sleep.
When He Zhou heard the news that Fatty was going on a blind date, he was very curious about what the girl looked like.
The sun appeared, and the snow on the road melted.
He Zhou saw Fatty's girlfriend at the Qu Family's house. She was petite, wore a bright red coat, and looked fair and clean. From afar, she looked like a normal girl.
She looked a little out of place when she stood next to the tall Fatty.
He saw that Fatty was so excited that the flesh on his face squeezed together. Even after the girl left, he was still reluctant. He didn't have to ask if Fatty was satisfied.
At dinner, after Qu Yang's father clinked glasses with He Zhou, he said with a smile, "So what if she can't speak? Everyone says she's smart and good at everything. As long as she can get by."
His son wasn't good with words, so there was nothing wrong with finding a mute as a girlfriend!
In his opinion, they were a perfect match.
He Zhou smiled and said, "As long as Qu Yang is happy."
"What's good about it?" Qu Fu didn't want her brother to find a mute. "If she blindly makes up, she won't have a good future."
Although her brother wasn't completely normal, there was no problem with his IQ!
She felt that her brother was wronged.
"Okay." It was rare for Qu Yang to refute his sister's opinion.
Qu Yang's father said, "What do you know? When I came this morning, I saw that she could understand everything we said. She's not deaf, but she can't speak. I heard that she became mute because of a high fever. She wasn't born like this."
He Zhou smiled and said, "It's better to let Qu Yang and her go everywhere. It's good that they can get along."
He kept an eye on Fatty and the girl's progress.
What surprised him was that the girl could read and could even send WeChat messages. Fatty sent a message. When he realized that He Zhou was peeking at him, he immediately covered his phone and didn't let him see.
He Zhou smiled and said, "I saw it all."
Fatty said angrily, "You can't see it."
He Zhou sighed and said, "This is a typical case of forgetting his brother after having a wife."
Fatty said, "No."
He Zhou said, "Touch your conscience first."
