Chapter 324 Five Years Later
Ordinary days pass by quickly.
Five years passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, Shen Qingqing pursued a doctorate degree and her career reached a new level.
Jiang Zhixun was also promoted one level.
The couple's careers are both going smoothly. When talking about them, the man envies Jiang Zhixun for marrying a wife who is well-educated and very beautiful, while the woman envies Shen Qingqing for marrying into a good family.
The husband is successful in his career and the elders can help them. Who doesn’t want such a good life?
Xiaoman and Xiaoxi have grown up and can run and jump. They are the two wildest children in the compound.
The door of the house cannot keep them in.
It’s so fun to hang out with friends in the compound every day.
Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun were both very troubled. This little kid, who was only five years old, was so wild. When he reached puberty, he might even go crazy.
The old man thought this was a good thing, "Children need to run and jump to become strong."
Xiaoman and Xiaoxi are indeed very tough.
He has never been to the hospital since he was a child and he is very strong.
Shen Qingqing sighed, "Other families have one naughty kid who can cause a lot of trouble, but we have two. When they start their rebellious period, I can't even imagine how much of a headache it will be."
Jiang Zhixun nodded silently in agreement, "Stop talking, I'm a little scared."
Shen Qingqing glared at him, "What are you afraid of?"
Jiang Zhixun now goes home after work every day, and before he even enters the house, his neighbors come to complain to him.
The two little monkeys in the family play crazy with other children every day, and even climb trees to rob bird nests. Other parents are dissatisfied.
They are just two little kids, so wild. In a few years, more and more people will report them.
Jiang Zhixun: "We're afraid they'll be too troublesome, so you and I have to apologize to them every now and then."
Shen Qingqing felt a headache just thinking about it.
"Starting today, you will practice with them for an extra half an hour to burn off some energy. You should no longer have the energy to chase after chickens and dogs."
Jiang Zhixun thought this was a good idea, "They just deserve to be punished!"
"Dad, who are you going to deal with?" Before the person arrived, a crisp voice came from outside.
Jiang Zhixun whispered, "She might have super hearing."
Shen Qingqing: "Who told you not to talk behind people's backs?"
Jiang Zhixun: “…”
Xiaoxi ran in from outside, holding a birdcage with a beautiful parrot in it.
Jiang Zhixun's eyelids jumped. Isn't this Qin Wenqiang's father's treasure?
How did this girl get it back?
"Where did you get it from? Return it to the owner immediately."
"Grandpa Qin gave it to me!"
Qin Wenqiang's father likes to grow flowers and birds, and there is more than one parrot at home.
No matter who asked him, he would not give it.
I couldn't even bear to let others take a look at it.
Now suddenly giving it to Xiaoxi, Jiang Zhixun looked suspicious, "Why did you trick the old man?"
Xiaoxi said with a smile: "I said I wanted to marry Brother Xiaocheng and be their granddaughter-in-law, so Grandpa Qin gave it to me, saying that it was a childhood marriage for Brother Xiaocheng and me."
Jiang Zhixun: “…”
Shen Qingqing: “…”
The brother Xiaocheng that Xiaoxi mentioned is the eldest son of Qin Wenqiang. The little boy likes to play with his older brothers and sisters and is very popular among the group of children.
The old man slapped his thigh and said, "How can this man still take advantage of others? Zhixun, go call Wen Qiang's father over. I have to criticize him. What era is this? He still has the nerve to do this kind of thing of child marriage!"
Jiang Zhixun said: "Let my dad go, they are of the same generation and easy to talk to."
The old man called out Jiang's father's name a few times, "Call that kid. If he dares to fool our Xiaoxi again, I'll break his legs!"
Father Jiang was helpless, "It was just a joke, you're the only one who took it seriously."
The old man blew his beard and glared, "Why can't I take it seriously? He even used something to please Xiaoxi!"
"It's not that children like it, so I gave it up reluctantly."
"I don't care. Anyway, he wants to arrange a marriage. This is wrong. I have to talk to him."
The old man looked depressed. "He didn't even think about how old Xiao Cheng is. He's so much older than Xiao Xi. Does he have the nerve to arrange a marriage with us?"
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
Jiang Zhixun was hurt. He was several years older than his wife...
He is already forty years old this year, and his wife is still a girl in her early thirties.
She said stubbornly, "I'm old and started working early, so I can save money for Xiaoxi in advance."
The old man almost hit Jiang Zhixun with his cane, "Who cares about their family's money? Our little Xiduo has people to support him!"
The two of them were already getting anxious even though this wasn't even happening yet.
Shen Qingqing comforted him, "Uncle Qin was just saying it casually, don't take it seriously."
"It's not okay to just say it casually!"
The old man walked out with his cane, "I have to go find him and have a good chat!"
The Qin family was not far away, but Jiang's father was afraid that the old man would fall if he went out alone, so he followed him out.
There were only three of them left in the living room.
Jiang Zhixun sternly criticized, "Don't say such things again in the future."
Xiaoxi blinked her eyes and said, "I lied to Grandpa Qin. I don't want to be someone else's daughter-in-law. I want to find a live-in son-in-law who can play with me at home and cook for me."
The two children were raised by Jiang's mother, and people often came to chat at home.
Daughter-in-law, son-in-law...that's how I learned these things.
Jiang Zhixun nodded silently, it would be nice to have a live-in son-in-law.
No one can bully his daughter from now on.
He deliberately said with a straight face: "You can tell Grandpa Qin that you like this parrot very much, but it is his freedom to give it to you or not. It is wrong to lie to others."
Xiaoxi scratched at the bird cage with her hands, "What should I do? Should I send it back to Grandpa Qin now?"
"Well, send it back."
Xiaoxi looked reluctant to leave. This parrot is so cute and can even learn to talk like a human.
She wanted to keep it, play with it every day, and catch insects for it to eat.
Seeing her daughter's sad face, Shen Qingqing said, "Return it to Grandpa Qin and ask your dad to take you to the flower and bird market to buy one."
Xiaoxi: "Buy two! My brother wants one too!"
"Okay, two."
Shen Qingqing was very easy to talk to. "If you want something, tell your parents. As long as it doesn't violate the principles, your parents will satisfy you. Don't lie to others. It's wrong."
Xiaoxi looked timid, "I cheated Grandpa Qin, will it be useful if I apologize to him?"
"Of course it works. As long as you are sincere and can correct your mistakes, you are still a good kid."
Xiaoxi said, "Then mom, please accompany me. I don't dare to go alone."
Shen Qingqing's mouth twitched, "Is there anything you dare not do?"
Xiaoxi hung her head and said, "I'm afraid Grandpa Qin will scold me."
Grandpa Qin was very kind to her and her brother and often gave them food.
If I knew that she had lied, I would definitely be disappointed and scold her.
But with her mother around, she is not afraid of being scolded!
How could Shen Qingqing refuse when the child was staring at her eagerly?
And she knows that lying is wrong and that she needs to apologize, which is something that deserves praise.
Holding Xiaoxi's hand, "Okay, mom will go with you."
Jiang Zhixun is his wife's follower, so if Shen Qingqing goes out, of course he has to follow.
Holding the birdcage in one hand and holding his daughter in the other.
He joked with Shen Qingqing, "Let's adapt in advance."
