From this perspective, Li Junzhong is indeed a good family man.
However, Li Junzhong has a 'fiancée,' but they haven't had an engagement ceremony, so she's not officially considered his fiancée yet. But everyone in the area knows she is. She moved into Li Junzhong's house during the first year, helping him take care of the household, look after his parents, and raise his younger siblings, allowing him to focus on his career without any worries…
Because they didn't have an engagement ceremony, she wasn't considered Li Junzhong's real fiancée, and no one could use this to punish Li Junzhong.
Li Junzhong enjoyed her silent support behind the scenes, but he was unwilling to take responsibility for her. He just kept dragging it out, while he was out there looking for someone he liked to settle down with...
How can anyone not be angry?
Just because that woman is from the countryside and uneducated, does she deserve to be taken advantage of like this, and deserve to spend her whole life working like an ox for a man who doesn't care about her?
Jiang Yue lowered her voice and said, "Xiaoxi, it's a good thing I didn't accept him, otherwise I would have become a third party who ruined other people's relationship. If I had gone home with him, I don't know how everyone would have scolded me! If Li Junzhong doesn't like that woman, he should let her get married. Why keep her at home?"
“If we let her get married, who will take care of his parents? Who will take care of his younger siblings?” Wen Xi said helplessly. “Do you think men are all fools? Do you think he would keep a woman who is of no use to him? He keeps her because she is of use to him, and he will discard her when she is no longer useful.”
"It's really disgusting," Jiang Yue said angrily.
Wenxi patted Jiang Yue's hand and reminded her, "When we get married in the future, we should divide the housework like we do now. The man should do some of it, and the woman should do some of it. Don't be foolish and take on everything by yourself. Otherwise, others will never know how hard you work, and they will never understand you or feel sorry for you. A family is a family for two people. If you exploit and oppress one person, how are you any different from a landlord? We are not their maids. Why should we serve others like servants? As long as we don't put ourselves in the position of maids, no one can treat us like maids."
Jiang Yue nodded. "I understand. If he doesn't do anything, then I won't do anything either. Let's see who's lazier."
“Yes, we should learn from them. They’re so carefree and lazy. We’re all human, why should we have to work so hard? We should enjoy ourselves too,” Wen Xi agreed.
Anyway, she doesn't agree with pushing everything onto women. Men aren't missing any limbs, and they're so strong. Wouldn't it be a waste if they didn't use their strength to do housework?
From a young age, her second brother taught her that housework was a man's job, and that girls only needed to take care of themselves. Therefore, the housework in their family was almost entirely shared by her father, her second brother, and her two younger brothers.
Don't let their young age fool you; the two younger brothers are already quite capable at housework. Their older brother taught them to do chores when they were just a few years old.
The eldest sister was the oldest among the children, so she did some work at the beginning because there weren't many people in the family at first. Later, as the number of children increased, the eldest sister no longer needed to do much.
It can be said that their daughter is very happy. It's just that no one knows why the eldest sister turned out this way. They secretly signed her up to go to the countryside, intercepted her letters, and even used her to exchange for the opportunity for her brother-in-law to get a promotion and a raise...
She didn't believe that it was all her brother-in-law's fault.
If a person has a conscience and sound values, no matter how others try to coax her, she won't do anything immoral. But the eldest sister did it, which shows that she isn't such a good person after all.
That evening, Wen Xi sat in her room, hesitated for a moment, and then took out a letter to write to the woman who was Li Junzhong's unofficial 'fiancée' and was helping him serve at his home. She told her about Li Junzhong's actions and urged her to make plans for herself as soon as possible.
She's only wasted four years so far, and she can still cut her losses. But what if she'd wasted forty years?
If a man doesn't like you, he can be really heartless. You can spend your whole life trying to warm his heart, but you'll only suffer for the rest of your life. Why bother?
Why not find a man who truly treats you well and enjoy the taste of happiness?
Why waste your time and ruin your life on a heartless man?
Li Junzhong is indeed a very filial son and patient with women; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to write letters to Jiang Yue every day. However, he doesn't treat his fiancée the same way. He looks down on her and is dissatisfied with her. So, from the perspective of his fiancée, he is a bad man. No matter how good he is in other aspects, he is not a good man worthy of entrusting one's life to.
Unless he meets and marries someone he truly loves, he won't treat any wife he marries just to complete a mission well. In fact, he'll hate her and feel that it's because of her that he doesn't have the chance to be with the person he loves.
Therefore, Wenxi wanted to persuade this poor 'fiancée' to let go and let Li Junzhong go find the woman he loves, while she could also find a man who truly treats her well.
Much suffering stems from our unwillingness to let go. If we can let go rationally and in a timely manner, we can reduce our suffering by 80%.
Just like now, she is trying hard to forget He Chen'an and not let herself think about him or those things from the past, so she doesn't feel so bad.
The next day at noon, when the postman came to deliver the mail to Wenxi, she handed him the letter she had written to Li Junzhong's 'fiancée'. However, she wrote the name Wen Yuanyuan on the envelope and the address was in another brigade, because she was afraid that if Li Junzhong knew that she was the one who reminded his 'fiancée', it would cause his 'fiancée' to stop taking care of his family's mess, and Li Junzhong might come to retaliate against her.
Wen Yuanyuan is a fictional person; she is a person he created. No matter how Li Junzhong investigates, he cannot trace her back to her.
Wen Xi still hadn't read He Chen'an's letter. She had finally started to feel less upset, and she didn't want to let it affect her mood.
As time went by, the temperature gradually cooled down, and everyone changed from summer clothes to autumn clothes and put on jackets. The late rice in the paddy fields gradually turned yellow, and it was almost time for the harvest.
Autumn is also a rainy season. Once the rice gets wet, it can't dry as quickly as it does in summer. It's easy for it to spoil and sprout. So, harvesting the late rice is a race against time.
