Shen Huadong had never been afraid of anyone since he was a child, but at this moment he felt a surge of fear in his heart.
What his wife did before almost completely offended their son.
Fortunately, she realized her mistake and later took the initiative to stick to him. Now she has sent the active and capable Li Xiaoxiu to her future daughter-in-law.
The couple accidentally managed to handle things quite well during this period.
Although Shen Huadong also thought Jiang Li was good, he didn't expect his son to think so highly of her.
His son was calm and self-controlled, and logically shouldn't be in love, but he didn't expect his inner thoughts to be so crazy.
"In that case, why don't you marry her home quickly?"
Shen Huadong followed his son’s words and said, Shen Changan smiled bitterly and waved his hand.
"I also want to, but Jiang Li has always had concerns, so he is not willing to do so."
"What's her concern? Is she afraid we won't agree, or is she afraid we'll regret it?"
Shen Huadong finally got into his son's heart. He softened his tone and tried to guide him.
"Both. She wants to take advantage of these few months to develop her career and make more money to feel more confident."
Shen Changan knew clearly that what Jiang Li feared most was probably getting pregnant and having children after getting married.
After all, they had just gotten married, and there would definitely be times when they couldn't control themselves. If something went wrong, there was a real possibility that they would get pregnant.
When Shen Huadong was young, he got married through a blind date. He had never been in a relationship himself and had no experience to pass on to his son.
He didn't even really like someone, but just because he was old enough and his family urged him to get married, he just settled for it.
After getting married, Shen Huadong was obsessed with his career, and his marriage with Wang Cuimei could not be said to be good or bad.
They both have their own careers, so all the housework is left to their aunt, and the children are raised by their mother.
Although Shen Huadong is already a grandfather, he knows nothing about these matters between men and women.
He has never had much dealings with women in his life and doesn't understand women's minds.
Although I already knew what my son was thinking and what he was troubled by, I couldn't offer any useful advice.
Shen Huadong felt a little embarrassed, and he could only pretend to drink tea, trying to fool the matter.
Shen Changan noticed his father's discomfort and thought of his marriage with his mother.
The two have been married for nearly 30 years. Their relationship is not very good, but it is not bad either. They just live a simple life.
People of our parents’ generation rarely get married for love, and they don’t even understand what love is.
For them, marriage is more of a responsibility. First, they have to fulfill their responsibility to their parents, and then they have to have children to fulfill their responsibility to society.
When they are old, it would be good if their children could stay with them and take care of them in their old age. If that is not possible, they can solve the problem themselves if they have jobs.
"Dad, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."
Shen Changan took the initiative to ask to leave, but Shen Huadong was reluctant to let him go.
"Wait a minute, sit down for a moment, Daddy will get you something."
Shen Changan was pressed into a chair and sat upright. He didn't know what his father would get him, and he didn't have much expectation in his heart.
Shen Huadong searched in the book and finally found a deposit slip.
"You have a wife and children to support now, and the burden on your shoulders is getting heavier and heavier. This is the little money I saved in the early years. You can use it."
The deposit certificate is a bit yellowed and it is obvious that it is quite old.
There is a total of more than 1,000 yuan on it, and it was deposited in several installments. It seems that it is indeed the savings certificate that my father has saved.
"The money on the certificate of deposit isn't much, but it's enough for you to use for a while. When I retire and find a job, all the money I earn will be yours."
This was the first time Shen Huadong showed his affection to his son, and the words he said were a little awkward.
Shen Changan, who had never felt fatherly love since childhood, was instantly overwhelmed by this surging fatherly love.
He didn't even know why his father was so nice to him?
This doesn't seem like something a father would do, and he is already an adult. Even if he has a wife and children to support, he should work harder.
How can it be justified to start spending your parents' retirement money before even getting married?
"Dad, I don't want it. I have money. You should keep it for yourself."
Shen Changan pushed the deposit certificate back. Although his father was in a high position and had great power, he was honest and upright and never engaged in corruption or bribery.
During the years he served as a leader, he never cared about family affairs and gave all the money he earned to his mother.
My father's salary is quite high, but because he has never earned extra money, it can only ensure that our family lives a comfortable life.
He was able to save this money because he must have saved it from the pocket money his mother gave him, and he would also set aside a portion of his bonus at the end of each year.
My father is an honest man who doesn't smoke or drink, and he has hardly spent any money over the years.
I saved all my private money and never thought of using it for enjoyment, but gave it all to him.
Shen Changan had received money from his father once before, and originally thought that he had emptied his small treasury that time, but he didn't expect that he still had money.
This time, Shen Changan couldn't do it no matter what. He already had his own business and earned much more money than his family.
But he is a low-key person and has never told his parents about it.
This caused their misunderstanding. At first, they thought he was not doing his job properly, and now they are worried that he has too much burden and no money.
The more Shen Changan thought about it, the funnier it became. He originally wanted to hide his affairs from his family, but now that he saw his father giving everything for him, he also wanted to have a frank talk with him.
"Dad, do you believe that I've been richer than you for a long time?"
Shen Changan pulled his father to sit on the chair and said half jokingly and half seriously.
Shen Huadong stared at his son for a long time, and finally shook his head seriously and said in a decisive tone.
"I don't believe it!"
Shen Changan understood his father’s thoughts, so he said it immediately.
"Dad, do you think that I've been doing odd jobs all these years and that the money I've earned can't even support myself, let alone my wife and children?"
"In your and Mom's eyes, I only have a proper job if I work in the system? But because I've only just started working, you think I'm broke?"
"But have you ever thought about this: Is the reason I dare to do this really because I like freedom and act recklessly? Isn't it because I have the confidence?"
At this moment, Shen Changan did not regard Shen Huadong as his father, but regarded him as his friend.
Every time they meet, tensions run high and they rarely sit down to have a good talk.
But Shen Changan knew that when he needed help, his parents would always be his strongest support.
