Chapter 194 The Old Man Who Hasn’t Grown Up



Soon the day of Chen Xiangnan’s wedding arrived. Many people from the Chen family came, and Chen Xiangnan was even more delighted.

At first glance, his second marriage was even more grand than his first and Song Xinhe's weddings. Except for Chen Weijun's family, all the other relatives were present, and even the leaders of Old Chen's workplace came to congratulate him.

It wasn't that no one in Chen Weijun's family had thought of inviting him, but they were genuinely afraid of them. The bad things they had done last time were still fresh in their minds, so who would dare to invite them to a wedding now?

Anyway, Old Chen and Old Lady Xia don't like them, and none of the other relatives like him either. So they have to fall out. Chen Xiangnan's good life cannot be ruined by a few bad apples.

Chen Xianghong had only just returned yesterday, and Yu's parents hadn't come to the wedding banquet today. They stayed at the guesthouse, confident in their status and planning to visit after Chen Xiangnan's wedding. Yu Hongzhen, Chen Xianghong's serious partner, had come to help. He was a generous person who got along well with others, and as the future son-in-law of the Chen family, he made a good first impression on everyone.

However, when Old Mrs. Xia thought of his troublesome parents at home, she felt unhappy and wanted to get angry, but Chen Xiangnan persuaded her, so she had to cheer up.

Chen Xiangnan rode a bicycle to marry Tang Jiao. Tang Jiao was wearing a bright red dress, and the sewing machine given as a betrothal gift was taken away in advance and properly placed in their new house.

Chen Lingling followed everyone else in clapping and cheering. She didn't understand what was going on. The people in the compound were still kind to the child and didn't say anything nonsense.

But Chen Weijun's family was not a good person. They knew that the second son of the eldest brother's family was getting married for the second time and would hold a banquet with several tables in the courtyard, so they just waited for them to come and invite them. They waited and waited, and even on the day of Chen Xiangnan's wedding, there was no invitation.

Chen Weijun was unhappy. He wanted to take advantage of the wedding day to talk to his elder brother about his son Li Gang's work. Seeing that he would graduate in half a year after the Chinese New Year, Chen Weijun was really anxious.

After he had a quarrel at Chen Mei's house that day, he went to look for his third brother's family, but he was kicked out before he even entered the door. He was so angry that he cursed at the door, but unfortunately no one paid any attention to him.

So, he compromised and gave in, and then wanted to ask for help from his eldest brother. It was his eldest brother who took the lead in asking the other brothers to ignore him that day. Chen Weijun was still angry, so he wanted to wait for his eldest brother to figure it out and reconcile with him like he did in previous years.

He was the younger brother who had been taken care of by his eldest brother for more than 20 years. His eldest brother was the softest of hearts, so how could he really break up with him? When his eldest brother came to see him, he would cry and complain, accusing his eldest brother of being cruel, and then he could take the opportunity to ask his eldest brother to find a job for his son.

However, no matter how beautiful his thoughts were, the reality was very cruel. Several months had passed, and his elder brother had never visited him once. He even had to find out about such a big event as his child's marriage on his own. No one had informed him at all.

Chen Weijun was so angry. He felt that his elder brother was too cold-hearted. He made a big deal out of a small matter. He had made his elder brother even angrier in the past, but he didn't get angry at all. Why was he angry this time?

Thinking of this, Chen Weijun became even more unwilling. When Chen Xiangnan went to pick up his new wife, he sneaked into their compound and stood next to Chen Lingling.

Chen Lingling knew Chen Weijun. During the Chinese New Year, this annoying second uncle had snatched her biscuits and eggs. She didn't like him, so she ignored him.

Chen Weijun also disliked Chen Lingling. This child was just as bad as Chen Xiangnan. Chen Xiangnan didn't respect him as his uncle by not calling him at their wedding, and this child didn't call him when she saw him, pretending not to see him.

Chen Weijun squatted down and asked, "Lingling, you don't call me Second Grandpa anymore when you see him?"

Chen Lingling pouted and looked unhappy, but out of politeness she still called out in a low voice.

Chen Weijun's smile was filled with malice. "Lingling, your father has married you a new mother. After she gives birth to your little brother, she will no longer want you. Are you afraid?"

Chen Lingling is timid, but she has her own ideas. Even if her father doesn't find a new mother for her, she won't see him on weekdays. She was raised by her grandparents. If her father really dares to abandon her, her grandmother will beat him to death, so these words will cause almost no harm to her.

She didn't want to pay attention to this bad grandfather, but he was too annoying. He kept saying that she wouldn't be able to eat good food in the future, and no one would take her out to play. She would be a child without a father or a mother. Chen Lingling frowned and suddenly replied, "Second Grandpa, do you have a father who loves you and a mother who takes care of you?"

Chen Weijun was stunned for a moment, "I'm an adult now, I don't need my parents to support me anymore."

Chen Lingling: "My grandma used to say that no matter how old a child is, they are still their parents' children. So, if you don't have parents to raise you, you're still an unwanted child."

When she said this, Mrs. Xia was still the same Mrs. Xia, the same Mrs. Xia who loved her son. At that time, their family was a very harmonious family, without so many quarrels. When Mrs. Xia said this, she loved the younger generation in the family sincerely.

Chen Weijun was told by a child that he was an unwanted child, and for some reason he suddenly felt sad. His parents didn't necessarily take care of him when they were alive. He had basically been following his eldest brother's butt since he was a child. If his eldest brother didn't love him, he would really have no one to love him.

He originally wanted to make this little brat cry, but now, a man in his sixties was almost made to cry by a child. No one would believe it if he told others about it.

Chen Weijun had lived under his eldest brother's wing for so many years that his mentality sometimes resembled that of a child who hadn't grown up, and a greedy child at that. He always believed that if he had any problems, his eldest brother would help him solve them. He would tell his eldest brother if he ran out of money, lost his job, or encountered any difficulties.

He has no problem-solving skills, and his only way of solving problems is to ask his elder brother for help. So over the years, he has only grown in age, not in intelligence.

Now, when his eldest son ran into trouble, he only considered asking various relatives for help, never considering letting Chen Ligang stand on his own feet and find a job. Chen Weijun also didn't consider that he himself had been a regular employee for many years and had his own network, so he could find a job for his son on his own, even if it was a temporary one.

Chen Weijun had never considered relying on himself. It was so tiring to work hard on his own. He had lived so comfortably under his eldest brother's care, and he felt his son could live the same comfortably under his eldest brother's care. He had never considered what he would do if his eldest brother stopped caring for him.

Now, he was unexpectedly pushed under the wings of his elder brother, and he didn't know how to face the difficult life in the future.
