He said seriously, "You have to choose what you like to do. I want you to live a good life and not worry about making a living, not for me to arrange it directly."
Chen Yun looked out the window and said, "Do you think there is a difference? Didn't you expect this to happen? If you make great contributions and get promoted, we will follow you to other places."
She looked indifferent, not like the Chen Yun he knew. Liu Qiao suddenly panicked, "Are you still blaming me for not telling you? I've explained to you that I was afraid that if I didn't have that opportunity, wouldn't it be a false joy? I don't want you to be happy for nothing with me either."
"That's not what I'm talking about, husband." Chen Yun also felt that her tone was a bit cold. She looked back at Liu Qiao and spoke in a coquettish tone.
"What does that mean?" Liu Qiao's tone softened a little.
Chen Yun said slowly, "I don't know how to put it, but the job I like is very small. You may think that I am not ambitious, but I just like to run a small shop by myself, read books, listen to music, and do what I like when I have nothing to do."
"Not bad." Liu Qiao replied.
But he thought that was the life of the elderly, and Chen Yun, a young person, should learn more. He did it for her own good. Only by learning more can she go further.
A comfortable mindset will make people stagnate. He doesn't want Chen Yun to live the life of an old person at such an old age. Wouldn't it be great if she could participate in work and devote herself to it wholeheartedly?
He added: "You are still young, you should do some challenging work."
"Well, so I asked you directly what you think I should do?" Chen Yun found it funny, because in the end it was not his decision.
Liu Qiao insisted: "It's up to you to choose."
"I don't know." Chen Yun turned her head away.
Her tears suddenly flowed down. She obviously didn't want to cry or show weakness, but she felt sad when she heard his tone was a little heavier. Liu Qiao felt that he was the one who raised a daughter. He gently put his arm around her shoulders and smiled softly, "Are you feeling wronged?"
Seeing that Chen Yun ignored him again, Liu Qiao was a little surprised. "Okay, I'll find a small shop for Yunyun this time."
Chen Yun hit him, obviously thinking that what he said was too fake. Liu Qiao laughed and said, "Why are you angry with me? Didn't I tell you to tell me if you have any questions? Look, I know that there are administrative positions or library administrators in universities. What do you want to do?"
"Then just do administration." Chen Yun sighed.
Liu Qiao smiled slyly, "Okay, I'll put the child in the daycare center, and you'll just be responsible for going to work."
He must let her face these things. In life and in the mind, there are many other things besides family. This sense of accomplishment is something that Liu Qiao cannot give her. Maybe Chen Yun will blame him now, but she will definitely thank him in the future.
People cannot retreat into a tortoise shell and think that there are not so many things in the outside world. Just like Chen Yun, he can give her the life she wants now, but he can enable Chen Yun to gain a different sense of accomplishment, or even get more different things. This is what she really needs.
Her parents didn't want their daughter to suffer, and neither did Liu Qiao. He had been married to her for several years and actually felt that Chen Yun was a talented and even smart person, and that such a person should not be left to languish in a small place. He didn't want her to take care of the child and do something she didn't like just to make a living. He always hoped that she could realize her potential so that her life would not be in vain.
**
The Beijing Railway Station was built a long time ago and is magnificent. Someone was already waiting outside the station to pick us up.
Liu Qiao asked Chen Yun to get in the car first, and the two went there together. They all said that Beijing was the best place, but housing was very tight here. Chen Yun and others were assigned to live in the bungalow on the left because the bungalow was very spacious.
There are three rooms and one living room. The decoration is good, but it is much simpler than the building. Each room is very large. Chen Yun misses the dolls she made and keeps them in the store. Liu Qiao told her that Captain Yuan and his wife are in trouble and it is a good opportunity to sell them. In the future, she can entrust them to help look after the store and pay the rent or sell the house.
"Do you want to reinstall it?" Chen Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Qiao smiled and said, "I'll take care of all this. I came here early because I wanted to take you around Beijing earlier. It's a good opportunity for you to spend a few days at my classmate's house."
"I'm not going." Chen Yun was a little confused. Why didn't she realize that Liu Qiao was so self-willed before?
Liu Qiao still coaxed: "Don't you want to go to Beijing to take a look?"
Chen Yun shook her head: "No, I think you should discuss with me before you do anything. Since you were promoted to deputy leader, you have changed completely. You think you are right in everything. Yes, that's right, you have more experience than me, you are better at dealing with people, and you are better than me in everything, but I just don't want to follow your way now."
She is not like Chen Dafen, who is always fussy but can't control men. In marriage, either the east wind prevails over the west wind or the west wind prevails over the east wind. For example, when it comes to work, she wants to open a small shop by herself, but at the same time she also envies strong women like Zhang Han, so she was able to go to work under Liu Qiao's persuasion.
But someone like Liu Qiao arranged everything without even saying hello, and just left without even discussing it with her. This was really disrespectful.
Liu Qiao suddenly smiled and said, "Finally you spoke out what was in your heart?"
Seeing him smile like this, Chen Yun was puzzled: "Are you forcing me to speak out my true feelings?"
Liu Qiao sighed, "Isn't it? You always think that I should know and slowly coax you. But I am also a human being, and my energy is limited. I want to coax you, but I am not the worm in your stomach. You should tell me in time. You don't like my promotion or you just like a comfortable life. I always hope that you can live happily."
Chen Yun rolled her eyes: "So you've done so much to get me to be honest with you?"
Liu Qiao took his son from her hands and said to her solemnly: "You should know that everything I did today was for you, not for myself."
If it was for his own benefit, he would be more than capable of retiring to a better unit and raising a child there, and his wife could also live comfortably there. But he always felt that it was extremely sad to confine himself to one place at a young age. He hoped that his son would be proud of his father and his wife would be proud of him as her husband.
If there is room for advancement, move up and work hard to improve your abilities. What's wrong with that?
Chen Yun hugged him and said, "Then let's do the renovation at home. When you have time, we can go out and have a look around. I don't want to live in someone else's house."
