"Auntie, I don't think a house is the most important factor that can give a wife happiness!"
After a moment of silence, Xia Yudong raised his head and said in a hoarse voice: "My mother's life is not easy. While taking care of my wife, I must also honor her. This is my most basic bottom line as a person. So I
I'm not going to buy a new house and move out as you want, let alone let my mother sell her only house in order to buy a house.
I plan to live in our current home with Tingting first. After I have saved more money in two years and my salary increases, I will consider buying another house. It will still be me, Tingting, my mother, and maybe we
The newborn baby will live in it...If you can afford it, try to buy a bigger one. If not, a smaller one will work."
Xia Yudong had obviously been thinking about this matter for more than a day or two. He spoke slowly but firmly.
Zhou's mother was furious and laughed, "Do you think I will agree to your marriage?"
"Marriage is a matter between the two of us. If you insist on making trouble unreasonably and forcing others to do something difficult, then we can decide whether to get married or not." Xia Yudong said without giving in.
Mother Zhou frowned and turned to her daughter, only to find that the circles under her eyes were red again.
"Mom...please don't force us like this, okay?" Zhou Tingyue's voice was trembling, "Brother Dong has already done it very carefully, please give us some time! Who can afford to buy hundreds of dollars just two years after graduation?
Wan’s house? Auntie’s place is very nice, I like it very much too!”
"Who said others can't afford it?" Zhou's mother said coldly: "Didn't that Xiao Jin I introduced to you last time start a company right after graduation? Doesn't he still drive a BMW? And your Aunt Lu.
That distant nephew of mine is more powerful, and he went directly to the Fairy Company!"
"mom!"
Zhou Tingyue stamped her foot, "Then why didn't you say that Xiao Qi, the world's richest man, is better than them? It would be great if your daughter married Xiao Qi, you would be the mother-in-law of the world's richest man! ... But I really don't like them! I
I only love Brother Dong!”
Xiao Qi wanted to laugh a little, but was embarrassed to laugh out loud.
"Humph, don't think about love now. When you live a comfortable life in the future, you will know the benefits of mom's hard work being a bad person today." Mother Zhou did not give in at all. "Now tell me.
Now, do you want a man or you? Mom...do you want to sever the mother-daughter relationship with me?"
Zhou's mother was so strong that she was speechless for a moment. She definitely didn't want to fall out with Xia Yudong, let alone her mother.
Seeing the quarrel, Zhou's father quickly asked his wife, "What are you talking about? Everyone is discussing things now. Is there anyone like you?"
"What's wrong with me? Isn't it good for your daughter?" Zhou's mother suddenly broke out. She roared: "I want her to live a good life, instead of working hard all day long. Is it wrong? Xia Yudong doesn't even have this responsibility.
If he doesn't take responsibility, do you still expect him to take good care of his daughter in the future?"
"Auntie, you don't need to say anything!" Xia Yudong's face turned ugly, "Mom, Xiao Qi, let's go!"
“Brother Dong~~”
Zhou Tingyue immediately started crying and held his hand. "Brother Dong... don't..."
"It's not that I don't want you, it's you. Mom is too hurtful. I can't be sorry for my mother to please you, Mom!"
"No, no... wuwu..."
Zhou Tingyue knew that after she let go, Xia Yudong would definitely leave. She had a weak temper, but she never wanted to give up.
A group of people were making noise here, which also attracted the attention of people nearby.
Someone happened to be passing by here and saw Xia Yudong. His eyes lit up and he smiled. He stepped forward and called Xia Yudong: "Xiao Xia!"
Xia Yudong turned around and took a look. His expression changed from stiff to relaxed in time, "Director Du!"
"It's really you."
Director Du, a middle-aged man, is not tall and very thin. Even when he smiles, he looks uncomfortable.
He looked around at the people on the table and said with a smile, "Why, are you coming to eat with your family?"
"Yes, director, are you coming to have dinner too?" Xia Yudong nodded.
"Mr. Lu took us to have dinner with Director Zhang of the provincial company. He is the butler of the boss of the provincial company." Director Du lowered his voice, "It just so happens that Director Zhang likes to drink. You have a good drinker. You can go and have a drink later, too.
Let him know that we also have some good drinkers here!"
"Director, I'm here..." Xia Yudong said awkwardly.
"Hey, you little comrade, why don't you know the importance of your work?" Director Du was unhappy, "Director Zhang is an important figure related to the pipeline renovation of our branch in Wucheng District... If you make him happy,
Maybe it will help! If Mr. Lu is so happy, won’t you get a promotion and a salary increase? This is a good thing! If I see that you are hardworking and willing to work, can I give you an advantage? "
Xia Yudong hesitated now.
If it were normal, he would not leave his relatives behind to accompany him for a drink, but here he just had an unpleasant quarrel with his mother-in-law because of his position and salary.
If after going out for a drink this time, I can really make meritorious deeds, and I can really get a promotion and a salary increase, wouldn't it be easy to solve the problems that bother me Tingting?
Turning his head to look over, Xia Yudong saw Mother Zhou's playful look in her eyes, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, director, I'll go!"
"Son, don't drink so hard all at once!" Xia Pingzhu warned her son quickly.
Director Du looked at her unhappily and said nothing.
Then Xiao Qi also spoke here, "Cousin, we are very happy to have dinner as a family, why should we go drinking with others? They want to please their boss, that is their business, let you use your body to fight, what are you talking about?
?There is a way for them to drink one bottle at a time."
Director Du couldn't bear it anymore, "Hey, young man, be careful what you say! I'm complimenting your cousin, why do you still think I'm harming him?"
"Isn't it?" Xiao Qi shrugged, "Director Du, right? If you drink a bottle of wine here, I think you won't harm my cousin."
"You...you..." Director Du wanted to get angry, but felt that he should maintain his grace. He could only ask Xia Yudong, trembling with anger, "Xiaoxia, can he speak on your behalf?"
"No, director, I..." Xia Yudong's head was trembling, and he smiled bitterly and tried to save himself.
But Xiao Qi didn't give him this opportunity, "Director Du, please invite me! It's normal for company entertainment, but if you drink wine after bottle of wine like this, I don't think my cousin is that lucky!"
"well!"
Director Du was so angry that his nostrils were filled with smoke. When he saw Xia Yudong shrinking and not replying, he pointed at Xiao Qi and Xia Yudong, "You guys have the guts!!"
After saying that, he snorted and walked away.
Xia Yudong moved his mouth, intending to apologize, but he could only sit down with a bitter smile, "Xiao Qi, your kindness has hurt me!"
Xia Pingzhu patted her son on the shoulder, "It's okay, Xiao Qi also means well. Mom doesn't approve of you working so hard... Were you like this in the company before? You drank a bottle of wine at a time?"
"No, just occasionally." Xia Yudong shook his head, obviously not wanting to say more.
Xiao Qi saw that Xia Yudong was not very happy in the company, so he wanted to stand out in this area and gain some impression points. It was still very hard work.
The atmosphere at the table was a little awkward because of this little episode.
"Humph! Children are ignorant, so don't talk nonsense!" Zhou's mother suddenly said: "Why are you meddling in adults' affairs? Without socializing and entertainment, can you succeed just by doing things? Do you know that you have ruined your life?
Cousin’s career?”
"Auntie, it's okay, they don't want to see me anyway." Xia Yudong quickly helped Xiao Qi to speak.
"Yes, I think this kid is very good." Father Zhou said with a smile, "Okay, okay, let's eat food and eat food. We can't reach an agreement today, so we will put aside the dispute and talk about it later... Young man, you
Eat more of these dishes, they are our representative dishes in Lin'an!"
"Thank you, uncle."
Xiao Qi smiled and ate the dishes. His calm look made everyone, including Xia Yudong, think that the young man did not know that he had caused trouble for his cousin.
"Auntie." Xiao Qi asked Zhou's mother while eating, "You said that being rich is a good thing, and being young and promising is a good thing. I think this is not objective. Many things that hurt Zhongyong have happened throughout the ages.
Often the most reliable people are those who are more honest...such as my cousin. If he can listen to my cousin today and sell his house to live in a new house with his wife and let his mother rent a house, then he can do the same in the future.
For you, he will abandon you after spending all your money... He can do the same to his sister-in-law, and wait until she is old enough to find a new wife... Do you think this is really good? "
Mother Zhou's face trembled when she heard this, "That's nonsense! How is that possible?"
"Why is it impossible? If he is not even respectful to his own mother, how do you expect him to be kind to his mother-in-law and his wife in the future?" Xiao Qi said, "So I say, you should feel lucky to have such an honest and down-to-earth son-in-law.
, I will definitely treat you well in the future... Now my cousin just lacks an opportunity. When the opportunity comes, he will be prosperous!"
"I didn't see any chance for him." Mother Zhou said sarcastically, "But he did have a chance just now, but you destroyed it."
"A blessing in disguise?" Xiao Qi said with a smile.
Mother Zhou was about to ridicule this young man who didn't know how high the sky was when she suddenly saw the director Du just now walking over followed by several people.
Originally, they turned to the bathroom, but not knowing what Director Du said, those people looked towards Xia Yudong.
"Huh?"
The leader, a man in his thirties, was obviously shocked.
Then he showed a bright smile and rushed over in a few steps.
"Qi Shao, it's really you!!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better novels and faster updates!
