Zhao Qingshan felt that this would not work. Although Zhao Guohui and his wife had made some money in recent years, Zhao Qingshan had always believed that children should be raised in poverty and their food should be nutritious enough, so there was no need for them to be overly refined. It was okay to have a delicious meal or two occasionally, but in the long run, the children might develop bad habits of extravagance and waste.
Yu Xiaohan's philosophy on life was completely different from Zhao Qingshan's. He believed that money earned was meant to be spent, especially on children, and no amount of spending was excessive. If Yu Meiru hadn't refused to take his money, Yu Xiaohan would have immediately written a check for one million yuan to each of his children for pocket money.
The next day, Zhao Qingshan and Yu Xiaohan had a talk. Zhao Qingshan thought that since Yu Xiaohan was a guest at the Zhao family, the cooking should be done by their family. The Yu family's chef took this opportunity to take a break.
Yu Xiaohan did not refute Zhao Qingshan's words. He just nodded and said with a smile: "Okay."
On the third day, the Yu family chef prepared a table full of dishes just like the day before. Zhao Qingshan glared at Yu Xiaohan angrily. Yu Xiaohan laughed and said that he was old and forgot to give instructions. Since the food had already been prepared, there was no reason to waste it.
Although Zhao Qingshan was very depressed, he also thought that what Yu Xiaohan said made sense. Not giving the children the food they had prepared and insisting on making it again was a slap in Yu Xiaohan's face. In front of the children, Zhao Qingshan had no choice but to endure it again.
Once there is a second, then there is a third. Every time Yu Xiaohan could come up with a bunch of excuses, Zhao Qingshan's face became darker day by day. If it weren't for his daughter-in-law's face, Zhao Qingshan would have wanted to take a broom and kick Yu Xiaohan out.
In the end, Zhao Qingshan had to take action himself and asked his aunt to cook the meal before the chef of the Yu family started cooking.
Of course, Zhao Qingshan also made a portion for Yu Xiaohan. As for whether Yu Xiaohan would dislike the food or not, Zhao Qingshan didn't care. His plan was that it would be best if Yu Xiaohan disliked the food and left on his own.
Zhao Qingshan's plan was dashed again. No matter how simple the Zhao family's meals were, Yu Xiaohan ate them with gusto. Yu Xiaohan was like a piece of taffy; once Zhao Qingshan got his hands on it, he couldn't get rid of it.
Zhao Qingshan could only hope that Yu Xiaohan's courtyard house would be renovated soon. He was really annoyed by Yu Xiaohan's familiarity every day. Ever since Yu Xiaohan arrived, Zhao Qingshan had been so busy competing with him for the attention of his grandchildren that he had almost forgotten his morning boxing practice. After all, with a few new people in his family whose backgrounds he didn't know, Zhao Qingshan didn't want others to know about his family's martial arts.
A month later, the courtyard house Yu Xiaohan had bought was roughly renovated, and he moved in with a large group of people, wanting to take Zhao Yu and Zhao Xia with him. Zhao Qingshan certainly didn't want to, but after some wrangling, Zhao Yu and Zhao Xia stayed at the Zhao family's house. Yu Xiaohan fought for the right to come to the Zhao family's house every day to play with the children. As for Zhao Lei and Zhao Ting, the bodyguard who took them to school never stopped. The neighbors were already spreading rumors that Zhao Lei and Zhao Ting had a wealthy grandfather, and their tone was filled with envy and jealousy. Zhao Qingshan was so upset about this that he lost a lot of hair.
When Zhao Yunxiang and Zhou Yuanyuan arrived at Zhao's house, Zhao Qingshan was angry because Zhao Yu and Zhao Xia ate snacks all day and didn't like to eat meals.
Children are like that; their senses are incredibly sharp. With Yu Xiaohan's support, Zhao Yu and Zhao Xia were so naughty they practically blew the roof off their heads.
Yu Xiaohan had a large amount of snacks shipped from Hong Kong Island, including delicious cakes and high-calorie chocolate candies. Zhao Yu and Zhao Xia immediately fell in love with them. The two siblings would wake up early and devour the cookie box. Even when it was time for dinner, they were still full, but an hour or two later, they would start eating again.
Zhao Qingshan tried to stop the children, telling them not to develop the bad habit of only eating snacks and not eating meals. Yu Xiaohan stopped Zhao Qingshan again, telling them to eat as much as they wanted and that he would send more after they were done. Forget cookies, even if the children wanted stars from the sky, Yu Xiaohan would probably have to bring a ladder for them to climb up and pick them.
Children have no self-control and rely on adults to discipline them from the beginning. Zhao Qingshan feels that since Yu Xiaohan came to Kyoto, his children have become much more difficult to discipline. He disciplines the children, and Yu Xiaohan tries every way to compensate them. If this continues for a long time, wouldn't it harm the children?
On this day, Zhao Qingshan finally exploded.
"My dear relative Yu, today is the last day. Please don't come to my house anymore. The children are the flesh and blood of our Zhao family. I will teach them well." Zhao Qingshan was irritated by Yu Xiaohan's blind indulgence of his children, and he didn't care about his face when he spoke.
"Huh? Brother Zhao, I didn't do anything wrong. Why can't you let me see my grandson and granddaughter?" Yu Xiaohan was very dissatisfied. He just wanted to give his best things to the children. How could it be wrong?
"Look, Xiaoxia and Xiaoyu's teeth have two big holes in them, and they even secretly eat candy under the covers before going to bed at night." Zhao Qingshan was annoyed when he thought about this. Before Yu Xiaohan came, Zhao Yu and Zhao Xia would not eat anything after brushing their teeth every night and would go to bed obediently.
To impress the children, Yu Xiaohan, the clueless grandfather, secretly gave each of them a large box of imported chocolate candy. Zhao Lei and Zhao Ting, the older children with more self-control, brushed their teeth and avoided the candy. The younger Zhao Yu and Zhao Xia, however, didn't care, simply popping a candy in their mouths whenever they felt like it. By the time Zhao Qingshan noticed, both children had cavities.
"I didn't let Xiaoyu and the others have candy tonight, did I? Xiaoyu, right?" Yu Xiaohan felt he was right. Children, after all! They needed to be taught from a young age, and controlling their desires was one of those things. Zhao Yu and Zhao Xia hadn't been able to control their cravings for candy, and when they got cavities, the pain would be a lasting impression. Besides, what was a cavity? Wouldn't children have to replace their teeth when they grew up? Even if they couldn't, he could take the children to Hong Kong Island to get porcelain veneers and it would be done in no time. It wasn't a big deal.
Zhao Qingshan's head hurt from Yu Xiaohan's twisted logic. It seemed like he and Yu Xiaohan had completely different approaches to raising children. No! He couldn't let Yu Xiaohan continue to cause trouble. If he continued like this, his grandchildren would surely grow up to be distorted.
Zhao Yu saw that his grandfather and his great-grandfather started arguing again after just a few words, and his grandfather even asked him to be his ally. Little Zhao Yu looked at his furious grandfather, then looked at his great-grandfather who was smiling, and wisely remained silent.
First set a small goal, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju mobile version reading website:
