I Reached the Pinnacle of Life in the 60s by Raising Children

Li Qingyun transmigrated into a book she had read, becoming the male supporting character's early-deceased, vicious biological mother. She took on the responsibility of caring for and educating...

Chapter 171 The Tough Chen Jianpeng

Although the sound was very low, everyone at the table heard it. Some were silent, while others felt embarrassed.

Li Qingyun has such a bad temper that I can’t help it anymore. What should I do if I want to lose my temper?

Gu Tingzhou's face turned visibly darker, and his fists were clenched on his legs.

"If you don't want to eat, get out. Do you think this is your home? Are you okay?" Bai Yu started to retort directly.

Only now did the woman notice Bai Yu sitting with Li Qingyun in the corner.

I thought to myself, why is she here today?

"Bai Yu, you—" Why are you helping an outsider? The woman pointed at Bai Yu unhappily.

"What do you mean by 'you'? You're late, and yet you say such shameless things. I'm ashamed for you."

Bai Yu and she were from the same compound, so they had known each other for many years. However, Bai Yu never liked her and was too lazy to even be perfunctory when they met.

The woman stood up angrily and said, "Just go, who wants to eat leftovers!" After that, she walked out the door.

Seeing her like this, Li Qingyun was stunned. She really came and went as she pleased, without any concealment. This woman was so willful. How did she live before?

Others probably understood her personality better, so they were not surprised at all and even felt relieved.

Without this troublemaker around, eating is more comfortable.

Her husband didn't try to keep her. Instead, he apologized to everyone with an embarrassed look on his face: "I'm sorry. Tingzhou treated us all to dinner today, and she ruined the fun. I'll drink three cups as a punishment to apologize to everyone."

Then he was in a depressed state the whole night, drinking one glass after another, and even the delicious food couldn't make him happy.

This is not the first time such a situation has occurred. Others can't say anything and just have to swallow the bitter fruit of their own making.

But later on, Li Qingyun learned a lot about this woman.

Of course, they all come from white jade.

When they had almost finished eating, they sat on the sofa to the side to watch the children and chat.

The men rarely get together, and they continue to eat, drink and chat.

Li Qingyun then realized that the arrogant and fashionable woman today was called Qiu Shuxia, and she was from the art troupe. Because of her profession, she always felt superior among her family members.

She is also Lao Chen, Chen Jianpeng's daughter-in-law.

Qiu Shuxia originally had her eyes on Gu Tingzhou, and she had tried to test him many times, both overtly and covertly, but Gu Tingzhou remained unmoved.

She felt that she was in a superior position, so she hesitated and waited for Gu Tingzhou to show his favor to her, so she did not take action.

But who would have thought that after Gu Tingzhou returned to his hometown to visit his relatives, he became a married man.

It is illegal to disrupt a military marriage.

Qiu Shuxia felt betrayed and was furious. She finally found Chen Jianpeng, who was in the same grade as Gu Tingzhou, and married him quickly.

It seems a bit like a temper.

The couple can be said to be a couple who are willing to fight and be beaten.

Chen Jianpeng had known for a long time that Qiu Shuxia had liked Gu Tingzhou, but there was nothing he could do. He was attracted by Qiu Shuxia's family conditions, which was a height he might never be able to reach in his entire life.

So over the years they have been married, he has always tolerated Qiu Shuxia's willfulness and spoiled temper.

However, he also gained some real benefits, that is, he was promoted to deputy battalion commander earlier than Gu Tingzhou.

Of course, it was the Qiu family who put in the effort. He could be promoted to deputy battalion commander with a little effort, but it was not so easy to be promoted to regular battalion commander. He had no chance of promotion for so many years, and now even Gu Tingzhou has surpassed him.

Chen Jianpeng was also very depressed. He regretted that he should not have chosen such a fussy wife for the sake of a little profit in front of him.

He has never had a happy moment in all these years. He pretends to be a grandson in front of his father-in-law and Qiu Shuxia, and cannot hold his head up in front of his comrades.

Other comrades all had several children, but he didn't even have one. His parents back home wrote to him countless times to urge him to get married, but he could only make excuses.

It was just to accommodate Qiu Shuxia. She was afraid of the pain of childbirth, and she was also afraid that her body would be deformed after giving birth and she would not be able to do the work in the art troupe.

However, he and Gu Tingzhou have always had a good relationship. After all, they have been comrades-in-arms for so many years, and it is impossible for them to fall out over some trivial old matter.

Moreover, Chen Jianpeng knew clearly that it was all Qiu Shuxia's wishful thinking back then, and Gu Tingzhou didn't even know what she was thinking.

Chen Jianpeng was in a bad mood and inevitably drank a few more glasses. Under the influence of alcohol, he said uncomfortably: "I really regret it."

Everyone sighed. Old Chen was not a wicked person. He just chose the wrong path and ended up in this situation. It was all fate.

The meal ended in such a strange atmosphere.

Only the two women who were eating melon seeds and chatting on the side were not affected. They chatted happily and made an appointment to get together again when they had time.

When we sent them away, Taotao was still reluctant to go home.

There are not many children in the compound who can play with him. He likes Dabao and Dabao's family.

His parents had to persuade him to take him away.

Chen Jianpeng was drunk and staggered as he walked, so they all helped him back.

When they arrived at Chen Jianpeng's house, Qiu Shuxia refused to open the door no matter how much she knocked.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Chen Jianpeng didn't know whether he was drunk or really didn't want to go on anymore.

He actually kicked the door of their house open.

Qiu Shuxia inside was shocked, and the three comrades who sent him back were also stunned.

Old Chen, today is a rare day for him to show his strength.

"Chen Jianpeng, are you crazy? I'm not done with you!" Qiu Shuxia was so angry that she hit Chen Jianpeng hard.

Bai Yu bullied her, and Chen Jianpeng not only didn't help, but also dared to kick the door when he came back. He really gave him face!

"If it's not over, it's not over!" He couldn't get through this day anyway.

"Chen Jianpeng, I want to divorce you!" Seeing his reckless look, Qiu Shuxia took out her trump card.

Many times before, when they had quarreled, she had always used this trick to win.

The man with red eyes pushed away his comrade who was pulling him, and looked fiercely at the proud peacock-like woman. His eyes seemed to be filled with poison, which made Qiu Shuxia a little flustered.

"Divorce? Fine! Divorce then! Anyone who doesn't divorce is a coward!

Even if you don't mention it today, I will still divorce you. Listen carefully, it is me, Chen Jianpeng, who wants to divorce you, Qiu Shuxia!"

Although he drank a lot of alcohol, Chen Jianpeng felt that his mind was clearer than ever before.

The wasted time and endless indulgence and tolerance towards Qiu Shuxia and her family have made this man spineless and live without confidence.

Today, when he saw that Gu Tingzhou, who had the same starting point as him, had such a simple and happy life, he felt indescribable envy in his heart.

Gu Tingzhou's lover also came from the countryside, but she was more sensible and knew how to deal with people than his wife from the art troupe.

He was envious, this was the life he had always wanted! When did he lose his original intention?
