Hu Yongbing's mouth was like a machine gun, looking at Chen Dafen and her son as if they were enemies. Liu Qiao and Xiao Shunping hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him: "Old Hu, don't be angry, talk nicely, don't hurt the harmony."
Chen Yun and Zhang Han also pulled Chen Dafen aside and said, "This house isn't soundproof, so everyone knows what we say."
Both the husband and wife were very angry, so it was impossible for anyone to persuade them to stop, especially with Hu Qiang getting involved.
Chen Dafen said angrily: "I didn't teach him well. Does he think the child is mine? My Qiangqiang loves me so much. He would say I worked so hard when he saw me doing housework. And you, you said you wouldn't give money to your family, but you lent 4,000 yuan to your brother to buy a house behind my back. If it wasn't for the child, I would have divorced you a long time ago..."
Her face turned red when she talked about the emergency. Hu Yongbing gave her a cold look and said, "Wouldn't he be in trouble? He is my only brother. If he gets sick, can I not send money back?"
He is different from Chen Dafen. He doesn't feel well just because he himself is well. He only feels well when his family members are well.
Chen Dafen sneered: "He is not sick at all. He always gets sick when he asks for money. What kind of illness can a young man get?" She knew these routines too well, but her husband didn't know why he always believed his brother. Other people's husbands were devoted to their own families, but her husband was the only one who wanted to help them no matter what.
Everyone had different thoughts after hearing this. Liu Qiao felt that it was not the fault of either Hu Yongbing or Chen Dafen that they were quarreling.
Does Hu Qiang need education for his premature love? Of course he does. Although he didn't like studying when he was young, and even had premature love because he was too good-looking and couldn't concentrate on his studies, if he hadn't joined the army, he certainly wouldn't have achieved what he has now. Besides, he has a different background after all, his parents are both officials, so he has more confidence.
Hu Qiang's father was born in a humble family, but he worked hard step by step to reach his current position and is Xiao Shunping's right-hand man. He should be more considerate of his father instead of wasting his parents' money on premature love.
The times nowadays are different from the previous times. In the past, people with good family backgrounds could be recommended to study or even become officials. But now, if you don't study, how can you get ahead?
In their time, anyone with a junior high school degree could join the army, but now if you have a low level of education, you won't get any good promotion in the army. The new era also has different requirements for new people, and Liu Qiao felt that he would definitely let his son study without distraction.
Zhang Han had no experience in this matter. She had always been a strong woman. When Chen Dafen's husband took her money to give to his family, they also advised her to divorce. But she always felt that for the sake of the children, she didn't want the children to become a single-parent family, so she didn't divorce. She just wanted to quarrel and make her husband give in. However, Hu Yongbing was very good to everyone, including Chen Dafen, but he could not compromise on this matter. Zhang Han felt that she could not persuade this couple.
Chen Yun didn't know what to say. When she was in Longcheng, Chen Dafen told everyone that she was instigating her to get a divorce because of this incident. How could she dare to say anything more about other people's family affairs?
It was Xiao Shunping, the oldest person present, who stood in the middle and said to Hu Yongbing first: "Yongbing, you and Dafen are husband and wife, so it is wrong for you to borrow money behind her back."
He also said to Chen Dafen: "As a father, Yongbing can still discipline Qiangqiang for his premature love problem, but the method and approach need to be improved."
Both sides slapped each other. After all, Liu Qiao was younger than them, so he couldn't say these words out loud, otherwise people would think he was lecturing others.
He could only laugh it off: "You two should resolve Qiangqiang's issue calmly. If you keep quarreling, it will only make others laugh at you. You should sit down and talk."
There is no solution to this problem. Even Chen Dafen, who was reborn, felt very tired. She only now realized that a person's character is really difficult to change and cannot be changed at all.
Seeing that the couple sat down, Xiao Shunping stayed to do some ideological work, while Chen Yun and Liu Qiao went back first.
When Feng Yu got home, she immediately asked what happened, and Liu Qiao told her. Feng Yu shook her head and said, "Chen Dafen seems to have a loud voice and is more powerful than anyone else, but she is actually the most timid. If I really divorced a man like her, I might be able to live a good life."
Chen Yun used to think so, and now she feels powerless. Although Chen Dafen gets a salary every month, it is just a drop in the bucket. The main source of income for her family still depends on the man. It is really difficult for her to raise the child alone without the man, especially since learning painting is very expensive, and there are also host classes. Chen Dafen cannot afford to raise the child alone.
Moreover, Hu Yongbing was really frugal for the sake of this child. Chen Yun heard that he not only did not become richer after becoming the section chief, but became even poorer. He basically spent all his money on his son. Sometimes Liu Qiao would take the initiative to give him cigarettes when he met him, because he was frugal even when buying a pack of cigarettes.
He never ate out unless he was treated to a meal by others. Even if he did, he would save the delicious food and bring it back for his wife and children. However, Hu Qiang not only did not study hard, but instead did all kinds of messy things. As a man, Liu Qiao certainly understood Hu Yongbing's feelings.
"Actually, it was difficult for Lao Hu. Although he borrowed 4,000 yuan to send home, the rest of the money was used for Qiangqiang. When people treated him to soda outside, he took it home to give to his son. He also planned to pay back the 4,000 yuan himself and did not use the money for his child's tutoring. I think Qiangqiang is wrong. He is so young but he doesn't study hard and has other thoughts."
Liu Qiao did express his own opinion. After he finished speaking, he looked at his son quietly doing his homework in the house and couldn't help but sigh: "Our son is so handsome, I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse?"
Good-looking people have too many temptations. Unless you have strong self-control, it is easy for people with insufficient self-control to go astray. He is busy with official duties. Although his wife disciplines him strictly, she also has to go to work and has limited energy. His parents are old and love to spoil their grandchildren. If Zi Rui does not discipline himself, his parents will have to watch him become bad in the future.
This is not an empty talk. Liu Qiao was a smart man before he joined the army. He thought that even if his grades were not good, he could still go abroad, so it didn't matter. Later, after joining the army, although his grades were not good, he was good at fighting, had a good physical condition, and knew how to socialize and build relationships since he was a child. He was also very courageous and often took risky actions, so he was able to stand out.
As for his son Zirui, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous after seeing Hu Qiang's previous experience.
Chen Yun, on the other hand, is very confident in her son: "With you and I teaching him, are you still worried that he will learn bad things? That won't happen."
