Chapter 1917: A Family of Scholars

We had lunch at Mrs. Zou's uncle's house. In the family, only Mrs. Zou's father had foresight and resolutely took his wife and children to Hong Kong to seek refuge with his uncle, who was also Mrs. Zou's great uncle.

During the Republic of China, her great uncle went abroad to study and was a famous scholar in the Liangjiang area. At that time, there was war and chaos. Because her great uncle wrote some articles that were not in line with the current situation, his life was threatened, so he left his hometown and went to Hong Kong. After that, he never came back. He has been teaching at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He is a famous scholar in Hong Kong and has a high status.

So when Zou Hanqiu married Mrs. Zou, people in and out of the circle said that he was marrying up. Although some young people in Hong Kong have poor ideas, the atmosphere of valuing literature over entertainment is quite good.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the status of literati and scientists is far higher than that of stars who sing and act. Unlike the later inland areas, the incestuous things of stars are all hot searches, and the ideals of primary school students have changed from scientists, doctors and policemen to becoming stars.

It is really a declining world, and the three views of children are seriously distorted.

Hong Kong has always done a good job in this regard. Celebrities are just ordinary people who have to eat, pee and pee. It's no big deal.

Let's talk about something off topic. Back to the topic~~

Mrs. Zou's father was quite far-sighted. He took his family to Hong Kong. Before leaving, he consulted several brothers and wanted them to leave together, but Mrs. Zou's uncles were reluctant to leave their homeland, and they also felt that the situation should not be too bad, so they stayed.

Therefore, Mrs. Zou's uncles suffered a lot in those years. Many cousins ​​had difficulty finding wives and husbands due to family reasons. Fortunately, the whole family survived and are now living a good life, not as good as the rich but better than the poor.

Moreover, because Mrs. Zou's family is a family of scholars, the family has the gene of being able to read. Several of her nephews and nieces are top students. With the help of Mrs. Zou and her father, most of them went abroad to study. After returning, they were either senior executives of foreign companies or well-known scholars. Mrs. Zou's family is very famous in Kuaiji. The local government also erected a plaque for their family -

Family of Scholars.

It is a great honor.

Mrs. Zou's uncle is relatively old, but he is still healthy, with good eyesight and good hearing. He is very happy to see Mrs. Zou and her husband, because all the other uncles have gone out, and only the oldest uncle is left in the hometown. Lunch is eaten at his house. The cook is the eldest daughter-in-law of the uncle, a very simple working woman.

The Zou family members are all handsome and elegant. Although Mrs. Zou's eldest cousin is over fifty years old, he is still very handsome. It can be seen that he was a handsome man when he was young. In comparison, the eldest cousin's wife is not good-looking, and she is short and fat, looking older than the eldest cousin.

Moreover, the eldest cousin's wife was not good at speaking, she just smiled shyly, and she could not speak Mandarin, but she worked very efficiently. She killed chickens and ducks by herself. Mrs. Zou and Ye Qingqing wanted to help, but they were rejected by her. Her accent was particularly strong. Fortunately, the accent in Shengxian was a bit similar to that in Pingjiang, so Ye Qingqing could still understand her if she spoke slowly.

Mrs. Zou had no problem at all. Even though she had lived in Hong Kong for decades, she still spoke fluent local dialect and had no problem communicating with the eldest cousin's wife.

"The scenery here is so beautiful, the air is pleasant, and there are live chickens and ducks, pigs and cows... Oh my God... It's so interesting, Brother Qiu, I want to stay a few more days, okay?"

Zhang Zhengrong, who had disappeared after getting off the car, finally ran back before lunch, looking excited, dancing like a child.
