Chapter 17: Father quarrels with son-in-law, daughter quarrels with father
Maybe Huanhuan really has a talent for singing. Even with only one musical instrument to accompany her, she can sing very well.
But Zhou Chen was very surprised by Nan Li's accompaniment. He had been with Nan Li for so long, and he had never seen Nan Li use an instrument before. He didn't expect that she could play so well.
The song had just finished, and before everyone's applause had stopped, Tian Yulan directed his son to perform a performance of reciting pi for everyone.
Although Yan Ziyou was very reluctant, she did not dare to disobey her mother. She could only stand aside and memorize pi in front of everyone.
"3.1415926…………"
In just a short while, they had already carried more than a hundred people. Zhou Chen and Nan Li looked at each other and looked at each other. Except for Tian Yulan who was smiling, even Yan Peng lowered his head, not knowing what to say.
Listening to Ziyou's continuous recitation, Zhou Chen was actually very surprised. Although he didn't think memorizing this thing was of any use, Ziyou was able to recite it so smoothly, which showed how much effort he put into it.
If Huanhuan could work as hard as Ziyou, not to mention getting admitted to Hanlin Junior High School, at least at Fengfan Elementary School, he wouldn't be ranked in the middle, or even at the bottom.
Although Huanhuan was still young, her little self-esteem was a little frustrated when she thought that she could only recite a few digits, but Ziyou could recite so many.
At the whole dinner table, there were only mother and daughter Tian Yulan and Cai Juying. They were very happy to see Ziyou reciting non-stop. The others were just helpless and embarrassed.
Seeing Ziyou carrying more and more things, Yan Peng finally couldn't bear it anymore. His son didn't even have time to take a few bites of food, and was asked to recite pi. Of course, his father felt distressed.
"Okay, that's almost enough. There are more than a thousand people. How long will it take to carry them?"
Nan Jianlong, who didn't want to hear it at first, quickly said: "Yes, Ziyou is already very powerful. Come here, let's eat first."
Seeing that her son's opportunity to grow a good face was interrupted, Tian Yulan was very unhappy and kicked Yan Peng under the table.
"Uncle Nan, our Ziyou can carry more than a thousand people without stopping in the middle."
At this point, the conversation changed to Huanhuan: "Huanhuan, how much can you carry?"
Huanhuan simply said: "3.1415926, no more, that's all."
Nan Li couldn't bear her daughter's frustration, so she said, "It's okay, Huanhuan, I won't take this in the exam. It's enough to memorize so much."
Tian Yulan finally caught the opportunity, so she said with a fake smile: "You guys are really big-hearted about your children, but that's right. You little girls don't have to work so hard. It will be great to fly to Fengfan Junior High School by then, but
It's different for us boys. We must take the Hanlin exam in the future, and that is the top spot among the junior high schools in our district. Even if it were placed in the city, it would still be in the first echelon."
Nan Li, who had endured it for a long time, finally couldn't bear it anymore. He put the spoon into the bowl, touched Chaochao's head, and said in a calm tone: "This has nothing to do with boys and girls. Our Chaochao will not force him in the future."
, as a child, he always fights for this and that, which makes people upset when he hears it.”
Tian Yulan was not to be outdone: "I often tell Ziyou that only by enduring hardship can one become a master."
Nan Li counterattacked disdainfully: "In modern society, everyone is equal, who is the superior? This in itself is full of feudal overtones."
"How can there be equality? You are all deceiving yourself. People go to higher places and water flows to lower places. Therefore, this child must not relax in her studies. If you feel sorry for her now, it will be harmful to her in the future.
she."
"…………"
Seeing his two daughters chatting, Nan Jianlong couldn't bear it any longer.
With a 'ding-dong' sound, Nan Jianlong threw the chopsticks directly onto the bowl, and the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly reached freezing point.
Zhou Chen had anticipated this situation, but he did not get along like in the drama, but sat quietly.
But something he never expected happened. Knowing that he couldn't control his two daughters, the father-in-law turned the conflict onto him.
"Junshan, I wanted to talk about you just now."
"ah?"
Zhou Chen looked confused.
Are you talking about me? What are you talking about me? Aren’t you trying to mediate the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two sisters? Why are you talking about me? What can I say to you?
Nan Jianlong ignored Zhou Chen's expression and continued: "You said that you, an architect, can't do your job well and have to write some novel. Isn't this a waste of time? Also, what kind of novel are you writing?
ah?"
Zhou Chen was really speechless. What do you call this? Writing a novel is called abandoning the original and chasing the last?
"I write an online novel. I just write it when I have free time. It doesn't delay my work, and it's not a waste of time."
"Internet novel?"
When Nan Jianlong heard this, his tone became even more severe: "Are they those messy novels on the Internet? Tell me, you are an architect, if you don't specialize in design, you have to write vulgar novels that can't be put on the table. That's not to say that you are abandoning the original and chasing the last.
?Wouldn’t it be better for you to spend more time with your children when you have time?"
Zhou Chen finally understood that this father-in-law was using the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth to forcefully transfer the conflict to him.
Perhaps in his opinion, as his son-in-law and student, no matter what he said, he would not undermine him, and he would definitely let him say that he would not resist, so he did this.
I felt a little unhappy in my heart, but since the other party was Nan Li's father, and coupled with my past personality, it was really not the right time to refute.
Just when Zhou Chen was thinking about changing the topic, another accident happened.
He never thought of tearing down his father-in-law, but the key is that Nan Li is not happy.
Why?
I was arguing with Tian Yulan. It’s just that you didn’t help me, my biological daughter. You also reprimanded my husband in front of so many people. This made her even more angry than reprimanding her.
So Nan Li also put down her chopsticks, looked at her father, and said, "Dad, I don't agree with what you said. Why is the novel written by Xia Junshan vulgar? Isn't it too much for you to say it is vulgar even if you haven't read it?"
Are you disrespectful?"
"I?"
Nan Jianlong looked stunned. He didn't really want to reprimand his son-in-law, he just wanted to use this topic to stop the dispute between his two daughters. However, he didn't expect that his daughter would jump up when his son-in-law didn't respond yet.
But the angry Nan Li did not stop, but continued talking.
"I know about Xia Junshan's writing of novels. He did not waste time with his children. On the contrary, he has already earned more than 10,000 yuan in just one month of writing novels, and this is just the beginning, so writing novels
It’s not a waste of time, it’s also a job, a job that can make money.”
Nan Jianlong's face was ugly when his daughter criticized him, and he retorted: "This is not a question of making money or not. As an architectural designer, you should focus on your job. If he spends all his time writing novels, he will definitely lose his professional skills."
There will be a decline, which is very detrimental to his future. You should not only see the immediate benefits, but also think about the future."
"My job is also to make money. As long as I can make money without violating laws and disciplines, why can't I do it?"
"Human energy is limited. If you have to learn one subject and concentrate on it, you will not be able to do well if you are half-hearted."
"What's wrong with writing novels in your spare time at work? It's better than going out to drink and dance, right? I'm very relieved of Xia Junshan's self-control. Even if he writes novels, it won't delay his job, let alone go around.
He flirts with flowers and abandons his wife and children."
Nan Li was obviously so angry that she burst out her long-suppressed emotions and said the last sentence smoothly.
In an instant, the entire restaurant fell into silence.
