Li Xiaoxiu didn't expect this to happen, and immediately nodded in agreement with joy.
"Don't agree too soon. There are much more things to do over there than here, and the work will be much more tiring. You may not be able to handle it."
When Wang Cuimei saw that Li Xiaoxiu agreed, she quickly poured a basin of cold water on her.
Only then did Shen Changan realize that his mother had just said that, not because she was deliberately making things difficult for Li Xiaoxiu, but because she wanted to help him in this way.
The mother knew that Yuying was very tired every day taking care of her grandmother and two children, so she thought of sending Li Xiaoxiu over.
Li Xiaoxiu didn't know, but Shen Changan knew it very well.
During the time that Li Xiaoxiu returned to her hometown, her parents often had poor meals and had to find time to do housework.
The mother clearly needed Li Xiaoxiu, but because she wanted to help him, she reluctantly pushed Li Xiaoxiu out.
"Madam, you know I'm a hardworking person. I used to feel a little uncomfortable because I was too idle here. If I go to Chang'an and get busy every day, my life will be more fulfilling!"
After hearing what Wang Cuimei said, Li Xiaoxiu was not afraid, but her eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Okay then, since you're not afraid of hardship or fatigue, then let's just settle this matter."
"Okay! As long as my wife doesn't kick me out, I'll do anything!"
Li Xiaoxiu had a gloomy face just now, but now she is smiling brightly.
Shen Changan is also a promising man, and the future life with him will not be too bad.
Instead of going out to look for a job like a headless fly, it is better to stay at Shen Changan's house and earn more money so that you can have a secure life when you are old.
"You are so smart and capable, how can I bear to let you go? But Chang'an has grown up and has his own family, and I hope you can help him."
"The reason I spoke to you like that just now was to force him to speak up. I didn't expect him to be so patient. Instead, you've been wronged. I'm really sorry."
Wang Cuimei apologized sincerely, and Li Xiaoxiu was immediately flattered.
"Madam, I was wrong this time, and even if I'm punished, it's all I deserve. I'm really happy that you understand me and are willing to continue using me!"
Wang Cuimei pulled Li Xiaoxiu to talk about some intimate things, and Shen Huadong took this opportunity to call Shen Changan to the study.
Shen Changan saw his father's hint and followed him quietly.
When Shen Changan came in, he deliberately left the study door open. Shen Huadong glared at him and took the initiative to get up and close the door.
Ever since he knew his son had a girlfriend and two lovely sons, he felt much more comfortable looking at him.
Shen Huadong used to lecture his son all the time, thinking that he was unworthy of his years of cultivation and education for not getting married and having children at such an old age.
Now seeing his son achieve his goal in one step, Shen Huadong is happy from the bottom of his heart.
He used to always say that his son was a good-for-nothing, but now he has nothing to say.
No matter how useless his son is, at least he has one more son than him.
Look at his age, and he only has this one son. Compared with other families who have many children and grandchildren, he is really a failure.
Because he lost a son, Shen Huadong was no longer as confident as before when speaking in front of his son.
He asked Shen Changan to sit down and personally made him a cup of tea.
Shen Changan looked at his father with a little surprise. This was the first time in his life that he was treated so seriously by his father. He was immediately flattered.
Shen Huadong took a sip of tea, and then took the initiative to invite Shen Changan to drink tea.
Shen Changan took a sip of the teacup, a little confused about what his father was up to.
"Ahem, Dad, just say whatever you want to say. We are all family, there is no need to be so polite."
Shen Changan put down the teacup and said uncomfortably.
"We were in such a hurry just now that we didn't have time to ask many questions. Dad just wants to know, do you really like that girl?"
"Dad, didn't I tell you before? I really like Jiang Li, and I will marry her in this life!"
His father asked the same question again, and although Shen Changan was impatient, he still answered it solemnly.
"I just want to make sure, did you marry her because you liked her, or were you forced to marry her because you had a child?"
"Of course it's because I like it. I've been an independent person since I was a child. You and mother rarely control me in life, and I also like to make my own decisions."
"We've been together for over 20 years, and you should understand my personality. I've always been stubborn, and once I make a decision, even eight oxen can't change it."
"If I don't like Jiang Li, even if you force me, it will be useless. I still won't marry her. This is my own choice. I hope you can believe me."
Shen Changan finished speaking in one breath. Because he was too nervous, his mouth was dry after he finished speaking.
He drank the remaining tea in one breath, and Shen Huadong quickly poured him another cup.
"That's good, that's good. As your father, I have always stood by you and hope you can make the right choice."
"Jiang Li's family conditions aren't great, but she's very hardworking, and her brother is also very promising. As long as you truly love her, I believe your lives will get better and better."
Shen Huadong confirmed his son’s intention and immediately gave him a sincere blessing.
"Dad, I have a wife and children now. I will work harder and support my wife and children with my own abilities."
"As for Jiang Li, if she wants to work hard after marrying me, I will support her unconditionally. If she doesn't want to work hard, she can just stay at home and take care of the children and cook some delicious meals."
"She is my wife and the mother of my children. I will treat her sincerely and let her live a good life with me."
Shen Changan confessed his feelings to his father, and Shen Huadong also knew his son's true thoughts.
He nodded with satisfaction, and when he saw his son had finished his tea, he quickly stood up and poured him another cup.
"You two have such a good relationship, isn't getting married at the end of the year a bit too late?"
Shen Huadong asked jokingly, but he didn’t expect that Shen Changan, who was usually quick-witted, took this sentence seriously.
He nodded vigorously and spoke to his father seriously.
"Dad, if possible, I hope to marry Jiang Li tomorrow!"
"Haha, are you that impatient?"
It was the first time that Shen Huadong saw his calm son so impatient, and he couldn’t help laughing.
"Dad, you don't know how good Xiao Li is. If I don't marry her quickly, I won't be able to sleep well every night."
Shen Huadong didn't expect that a joke of his had tricked his son into telling the truth.
He never expected that his son's feelings for Jiang Li had reached such a deep level.
Fortunately, he was supportive of this matter from beginning to end, otherwise the relationship between father and son would have been broken down because of these differences.
