"I've said enough! Look at you, acting so unreasonable and clueless! Let me tell you, if you keep going like this, you'll cause me big trouble sooner or later. Then not only me, but our whole family will be ruined. Will you be happy then?!" Wu Hongbo roared.
In a conversation, he even brought up his own migraine.
If this continues, I'm afraid I'll get so angry that my heart will hurt!
"I don't believe Su Yueya has such great abilities. No matter how powerful her family is, do they think they can control everything?!" Deng Wenfang was very arrogant, and she genuinely believed that she was in the right, while Su Yueya was just using the situation as an excuse.
"Shut up, Deng Wenfang, I'm warning you!"
Wu Hongbo knew that reasoning with her was probably pointless, so he stopped trying to persuade Deng Wenfang. As long as he could keep her quiet, the matter would be "resolved," and at least there wouldn't be any more trouble. That would be fine too.
"If you can't speak properly and can't distinguish right from wrong, then shut your troublemaking mouth! If I find out you're continuing to slander Dr. Su outside, I won't let you off the hook!"
"Keep causing trouble. If it causes me to be bullied in the army, I might not even be able to stay. Then we'll pack up and go back to the countryside to farm. At that time, you won't be able to keep quiet!"
"I—" Deng Wenfang was speechless.
She didn't want to go back to the countryside.
She had finally seen her man succeed and rise to the position of deputy regimental commander, with the possibility of further promotions in the future. How could she possibly want to go back to the hard days of the past?
Now that she lives in the compound, life is a thousand times better than it was in the countryside. She won't go back; she can't let her son suffer with her.
"What do you mean, 'what do you mean?'" Wu Hongbo asked, his eyes wide.
Deng Wenfang: "..."
She was indeed confused, but she was also genuinely frightened by her husband's words.
When Wu Hongbo saw her subdued appearance, he knew that his "threat" had worked.
Sure enough, it's better to just threaten them than to reason with them.
Even if Deng Wenfang was lawless, she was afraid of really implicating Wu Hongbo, since the whole family's livelihood depended on Wu Hongbo's position in the army.
"I understand. Don't worry, I won't mention Su Yueya again." Deng Wenfang admitted defeat.
At least verbally, it sounds like they've "backed down."
But she still felt that the whole thing was Su Yueya's fault. Su Yueya was shameless, and her whole family was shameless. They took advantage of their connections in the army to do evil and even used Wu Hongbo's position to threaten and coerce her.
That's absolutely despicable!
She couldn't deal with Su Yueya, but she believed that someone could eventually take care of her whole family!
She's waiting to see the day they fall apart!
"What kind of look and expression is that? What, are you still not convinced? Are you still resentful?" Wu Hongbo scrutinized his wife, trying to figure out whether she had understood what he was saying.
"No, no! What am I complaining about? It's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go out to eat first, Xiaoyu must be starving," Deng Wenfang said, changing the subject.
She cursed Su Yueya in her heart, but on the surface, she still had to pretend to be convinced.
"Let's go eat." Wu Hongbo felt a little relieved, thinking that at least the matter had been brought under control. But after taking a couple of steps, he frowned again. "By the way, why did Xiaoyu throw stones at someone else's cat? How do you usually discipline him?"
"Let me tell you, you can't throw stones at people, you can't even throw them at a cat. Isn't a cat a life too? You have to have a limit to how much you spoil your child, don't ruin him!"
"It's just a cat, why take it so seriously?" Deng Wenfang said casually.
"What do you mean 'just a cat'? A cat's life isn't a life?!" Wu Hongbo raised his voice, never expecting his wife's thoughts to be so inhumane.
No wonder, with a mother who doesn't value a cat's life, it's not surprising that her son would throw stones at the cat.
"Alright, alright..." Deng Wenfang didn't want to argue with her husband about this anymore, so she gave in on the surface. "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I'll definitely teach Xiaoyu a lesson and tell him he's not allowed to hit the cat with stones anymore, okay?"
Wu Hongbo shook his hand, and then stopped talking.
The Qiao family.
Qiao Hanxue was the most "relaxed" in the family. He only needed to arrange the daily affairs of the medical school, and spent the rest of his time taking care of Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an.
But after all, they are two little ones, and they are too young. It's really impossible to handle everything if you leave everything to them.
Liu Yuying could help occasionally, but after all, she was the division commander, and many affairs had to be handled by her. The troops also needed to report on time, so she couldn't take on too much responsibility.
Qiao Shouyan and Qiao Gaoyang are busy with work and also have to find time to date and pursue their partners, so they really can't be in two places at once.
We can only rely on Su Yueya and Qiao Xinruo.
Fortunately, the work in the medical department is relatively relaxed, except when you are on a mission with the military or on a day when you are on duty. You can also arrange your rest time more freely.
Therefore, Qiao Xinruo and Su Yueya discussed it and decided to try to avoid resting at the same time.
Sunday can be a full day off, but Saturday's rest day will be one of the weekdays, and the two of us will take our days off at different times so that we can share the burden of taking care of the child with Qiao Hanxue.
Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an are so cute, who wouldn't want to take care of them?
That day, it was Qiao Xinruo's turn to rest.
"Auntie, play with An'an!" Lu Si'an pouted and kept shaking Qiao Xinruo's hand.
With her coquettish act, Qiao Xinruo had no choice but to surrender.
She was reading a medical book when the two little ones started playing with toys with Milk. But after a while, Lu Si'an became restless.
"Okay, I'll keep An'an company." Qiao Xinruo put the book aside, sat cross-legged on the carpet with the two children, and asked, "Play? What should we play?"
"Let's start the little train!" Lu Siyuan said.
So, the three of them—one adult and two children—each held a toy train and proceeded along the track in sequence.
"Toot toot toot—" The two children even tried to imitate a train whistle.
“Auntie, you want to do Dudu too!” Lu Si’an made a request, hoping to immerse Qiao Xinruo in the moment.
Qiao Xinruo: "..."
Still Dudu?
Despite her inner disgust, Qiao Xinruo still cooperated perfectly with the two little dumplings' whining and their watchful eyes.
"Beep beep beep." She imitated the two children and honked her horn as well.
They drove around and around, and the two siblings were having a great time, but Qiao Xinruo was really starting to feel the strain.
Isn't this even more tiring than having surgery?
