Xue Kai stood there but didn't want to leave. He just whispered, "I'm on vacation now. I have nothing to do if I go back. I might as well stay here."
What are you staying here for?
Xue Haiyang frowned and looked at Xue Kai.
"The girl you like didn't come."
"Dad, do you look down on her background?"
Xue Kai suddenly asked.
But Xue Haiyang shook his head and simply said, "In revolution, there is only division of labor, not hierarchy. I don't despise her poor background, but because you are still young, if you choose each other now, you will probably regret it later. If you are mature and still like her, I have no objection."
Xue Kai looked at Xue Haiyang in disbelief. He never expected that this would be the reason his father objected.
He took a deep breath, then whispered, "I don't know either, but I'll do what I should do."
Children who grow up in this kind of family will deal with things calmly no matter what they encounter.
Seeing Xue Kai like this, Xue Haiyang finally nodded with satisfaction, then smiled and said, "Yes, if you think so, I'm satisfied."
"Dad, I want to stay with you this afternoon and see the production line."
"Yeah, sure, come with me."
The gap between the two people disappeared in an instant, and their eyes were filled with longing and hope for the future.
This afternoon, Wu Xiuying ran through almost all the sales routes that Li Zicheng had run, visited many places, and even squatted at the door of the food factory, and began to ask the workers coming and going about the real situation of the food factory.
During this afternoon, Wu Xiuying felt like her legs were about to break, but she still gained a lot. After returning home, she was so tired that she collapsed on the sofa.
"Mom, it's already past nine o'clock, why are you back just now?"
"I left some food for you."
Li Zicheng smiled and then quickly took out the food he had left for himself.
"Can you cook now?"
Wu Xiuying glanced at Li Zicheng and widened her eyes in disbelief. She really never dreamed that this kid could cook?
"Well, what I cook is not delicious, but it can fill you up."
"Mom, try it."
Li Zicheng rubbed his hands a little embarrassedly, like a child waiting for evaluation.
After hearing this, Wu Xiuying forced herself to take a bite. The taste was indeed ordinary, but Wu Xiuying was still filled with emotion.
In her previous life, she took care of these children in every possible way. She didn't even let them go to the kitchen, and some of them didn't even wash their own underwear.
But unfortunately, she raised children who were nothing. Now that she let go, these children have grown into flesh and blood. It seems that educating children is indeed a very difficult subject to explain.
For some reason, Wu Xiuying now sincerely feels that most of her fate in her previous life was related to herself.
"That's great. My son won't starve to death anymore."
Wu Xiuying ate all the food on the plate.
She was so tired that she didn't even have time to go to bed. She just curled up on the sofa and fell into a deep sleep.
After Li Zicheng came back after packing up his things, he saw Wu Xiuying lying on the sofa. He hurriedly took a blanket and gently covered Wu Xiuying with it.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Li Zicheng opened the door and frowned when he saw Li Jianjun. He did not let Li Jianjun in, but went out himself.
After leaving, he closed the door and frowned at Li Jianjun: "Why are you here? How did you come here?"
"I just came to see you, why are you so nervous?"
"No matter what, I'm still your big brother, right?"
Li Jianjun was also a little unhappy when he saw Li Zicheng's impatient look.
"Do you have time? I'll take you out for some barbecue." Li Jianjun frowned and glanced at Li Zicheng.
Li Zicheng was originally reluctant to go out to dinner with Li Jianjun, but thinking that Wu Xiuying was still sleeping in the room, Li Zicheng could only nod reluctantly and follow him outside.
The two went to a barbecue stall not far from their home. After sitting down, Li Jianjun sighed.
"I know you're all blaming me, and I know my choice at the time was indeed heartbreaking, but believe it or not, I didn't do this just for myself."
Li Jianjun felt that this matter needed to be explained in detail.
However, Li Zicheng no longer cares about this.
He looked at Li Jianjun seriously and said with a smile, "Brother, actually, I couldn't figure it out at the beginning, and I was also very concerned about this matter, but now I have figured it out. I now understand that no matter whether you did it for yourself or for someone else, there is nothing wrong with it."
"Mom said that we've grown up and our own lives should be our own, so I don't think there's any need for us to worry about other things, right?"
"You've made your choice anyway, haven't you?"
If it were in the past, Li Zicheng would definitely not have said such words.
But now Li Zicheng has grown up and looks much more mature, so he can say such words naturally.
After hearing this, Li Jianjun felt even more upset. He took a deep breath and looked at Li Zicheng: "What... do you mean?"
"What I mean is that we all need to learn to live on our own. Li Mohai chose to take the civil service exam and pursue a career in politics, and I also have new goals. Only you, big brother, are still immersed in the past and unwilling to move forward."
"Before, you were the smartest and fastest among us brothers. How come you have become like this now?"
Li Zicheng frowned slightly and looked at Li Jianjun helplessly.
"Second brother, you are really different now than before."
"I just want to go home. I really regret it."
Li Jianjun looked at Li Zicheng pitifully.
The two men are brothers and grew up together, so Li Zicheng knew that what Li Jianjun said now was the truth.
He thought for a moment and said, "If you really know you're wrong, you should go tell Mom directly, apologize, or confess. We are all family, you should talk to her properly instead of trying to attract her attention in this way."
Li Jianjun never dreamed that one day he would be taught a lesson by Li Zicheng.
He took a deep breath, then looked at Li Zicheng: "Seeing you like this now, I am happy, let alone our mother."
"Brother, no matter what happens, we are brothers connected by blood, and you will always be my son." Li Zicheng smiled slightly, then raised his glass and took a sip.
