Li Chu knew his son very well.
He's just like his father; he's a bit of a chauvinist.
At home, you can pamper your woman, do her laundry and cook for her.
But to say that I'm supported by a woman is something I would never accept, even if you beat me to death.
Sure enough, Li Wenxuan shook his head decisively.
"I definitely want to earn my own money."
"Hmm, that's a good idea, but please tell me, how are you going to make money?"
"I……"
Li Wenxuan was speechless when his father asked him that question.
Wang Yueyue, who was sitting in the back row and was getting a little anxious, wanted to say something, but Ding Qiunan stopped her again and gave her a wink.
Yueyue looked at her future mother-in-law with a somewhat bewildered expression.
"You'll find out when we get back!" Ding Qiunan whispered in her future daughter-in-law's ear.
Her words finally put Wang Yueyue's anxious heart at ease.
Meanwhile, Li Wenxuan, in the passenger seat, was staring blankly out the window, completely unaware of the subtle interactions between the two women behind him.
Li Chu turned his head to look at his son, and then said, "Wenxuan, it's good that you want to marry Yueyue and take responsibility for her. It shows that you are a responsible man."
But I hope that in the future, before you do anything, you will think carefully about the consequences of what I have done, whether I can bear those consequences, and what I can use to bear them.
Instead of acting impulsively and recklessly, people, especially men, must first learn to take responsibility for their own lives before they can shoulder the burdens of family life in the future.
"I understand, Dad!"
"Oh, I forgot to tell you two, your grandma is living with us now."
"Oh? Mr. Chu, my grandma has moved in with us?"
"Well, I felt that she was a bit lonely living there, and your grandfather is often away from home, so I applied to bring her here. If your grandfather isn't away on business, he'll come back to stay, but he's not here these past two days."
"That's great! This makes things much more convenient. Otherwise, it's such a hassle to visit Grandma every time I go home!" Wang Yueyue clapped her hands happily from behind.
Li Wenxuan looked rather worried. It wasn't that he didn't welcome his grandmother coming to live with him; in fact, he was overjoyed that she was moving in, since she had raised him single-handedly.
He felt a deep affection for this grandmother who was not related to him by blood.
The problem is that he just took advantage of someone's granddaughter, and now he has to face the parents immediately, so he's bound to feel uneasy.
She looked at her father, who was driving, for help. He no longer had the high spirits he had that night, nor the fearlessness he had shown just moments before.
His father's series of questions made him realize how ridiculous his previous ideas had been.
Feeling Wenxuan's gaze, Li Chu smiled slightly, thinking to himself: It's good that he knows fear and has a sense of awe.
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
"Dad, I know my previous thoughts were very naive. I hope you and Mom can help me."
Li Wenxuan's words made Li Chu look at him with surprise, and even Ding Qiunan, who was sitting in the back, brightened her beautiful eyes.
When you feel most helpless, knowing to actively seek help from your parents instead of simply shirking responsibility or stubbornly refusing to learn from your mistakes is a kind of progress.
"I understand. You are my child, and your mother and I will definitely try our best to help you. Let's talk about it when we get home, okay?"
"Thank you, Dad!"
At home, seeing her two granddaughters whom she hadn't seen for many days and her future grandson-in-law, Aunt Wang was overjoyed.
Since moving here a few days ago, Aunt Wang's mood has been getting better and better, and even her appetite has improved.
Every day after Li Chu and Ding Qiunan went to work, Li Qin and Ding's mother from next door would come over to chat with Aunt Wang.
When the three of them had nothing to do, they would get together and play the cards that Li Chu had taught them, often forgetting to eat while playing.
After chatting with his grandmother, maternal grandmother, and aunt for a while, Li Wenxuan didn't even bother to go into his own room and followed his father to the study.
Sitting in the pavilion, Aunt Wang glanced at the direction leading to the central courtyard with some confusion, then turned to Ding Qiunan and asked, "Qiunan, what's wrong? I feel like Wenxuan is preoccupied."
"Auntie, your future grandson-in-law has done something wrong this time, and I don't know how to clean up the mess."
"Did he do something wrong? What did he do wrong? Did he beat someone up over in Dongshan?"
Aunt Wang's words made Ding's mother and Li Qin stop talking and look over.
Realizing what she was about to say, Wang Yueyue blushed deeply and couldn't sit still any longer. She quickly ran back to her house in the front yard.
“Auntie, if someone is beaten, that’s a crime, not a mistake.”
"What happened? Oh, you silly girl, hurry up and tell me, don't keep this old lady in suspense."
Seeing the anxious look on Aunt Wang's face, Ding Qiunan dared not linger any longer.
"Auntie, your wish to become a great-grandmother is not far off!"
While these words weren't exactly earth-shattering, they were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.
"What did you say?" Aunt Wang, Aunt Ding, and Li Qin asked in unison.
"You heard me right!"
Sitting next to Ding Qiunan, Li Qin grabbed her arm: "Qiunan, are you saying Yueyue is already pregnant?"
It's no wonder Li Qin was so excited; this is a major issue concerning the continuation of their family line.
"Sis, it's not that exaggerated. It's only been a few days. Even if they were pregnant, it would be impossible to know by now. But it's true that they've been living together since this trip."
"That brat, how dare he act recklessly!"
Looking at Li Qin's pretentious act, Aunt Wang curled her lip and said, "Alright, Qin, stop putting on an act in front of this old lady. If you want to have fun, then have fun."
Li Qin smiled awkwardly: "Auntie, I'm not happy at all. I'm just angry that this brat doesn't know his place."
"Alright," Aunt Wang waved her hand, "I'll make the decision, let the two children get married as soon as possible."
“Yes, yes, Wenxuan’s file has been transferred to the military, right? He should be able to get married now.” Ding’s mother, who hadn’t spoken until now, also chimed in.
"Mom, Aunt, don't worry about this for now. Getting the two children married is a certainty."
But we can't just let this brat off so easily. We have to make him realize his mistake and understand the seriousness of the problem, otherwise who knows what kind of trouble he'll cause in the future.
Li Qin nodded thoughtfully: "You're right to think that way. This child's future path is not an ordinary one, so he can't be so impulsive anymore."
