Chapter 211: Disrespect for the Elderly
"It's up to you. You can spend your money as you like. We don't care. But we hope you can manage your finances properly and learn how to integrate into this society during your four years in college. Remember, when it comes to the two girls you met yesterday, you can't judge people by their appearance. Do you understand?" Lin Qin advised earnestly, full of worry.
No matter what she said, Chen Xinyue nodded obediently.
After dinner, the family rushed to Xu Kang's school.
Fortunately, they are all in the university town, not too far away, and only take 40 minutes to get there by car.
With previous experience, this time everyone bought daily necessities outside the school before reporting in, which saved a lot of time.
It was only a little after four in the afternoon when Xu Kang's bed was made, so he could still rush to Chen Ruiyu's school.
After completing the enrollment procedures for the three children and getting to know each other, Chen Wenjun decisively left Chen Ruiyu behind and took Lin Qin, Chen Xinyue and Xu Kang away.
The four of them happened to be in one car. After sending Xu Kang back to the dormitory, Chen Xinyue came last.
The couple traveled all day and it was already ten o'clock in the evening when they arrived at the guesthouse.
There was no movement outside the school at this time, and it was quiet all around.
Lin Qin was not sleepy, so she lay on the bed and said to Chen Wenjun, "What are our plans for tomorrow?"
Chen Wenjun spoke without thinking, "Let's go see Yaya first, accompany her to the cafeteria for breakfast, and see if she wants to go shopping with us. Anyway, you have ten days off, and I have told Weimin and Shaojun about my affairs. Dad is watching over us, so nothing will go wrong. We can have fun in the capital and look at houses."
Having experienced his previous life, he knew how outrageous the housing prices in the capital would rise later.
What is even more outrageous is the household registration issue. The three children were admitted to a university in the capital, and their household registration was also moved here. Now that they are here, they are not going to leave.
If he doesn't leave, he will have to consider the housing issue. While the housing prices are low now, he must make careful plans for his children.
Lin Qin nodded. Feeling relieved, she fell asleep peacefully.
The next morning, the couple went to find Chen Xinyue and had breakfast with her in the school cafeteria. They then took a taxi to pick up Chen Ruiyu and Xu Kang. The five of them visited several attractions, wandered around the streets and alleys within the Third Ring Road, and chatted with the locals.
After playing for three days in a row, the children's roommates arrived one after another.
In order to let the children develop relationships with their roommates, Lin Qin and Chen Wenjun stopped taking them out to play. Instead, they targeted their targets and bought three houses in one day.
Houses are not expensive nowadays. Three houses together cost about one million yuan, and they are all within the Third Ring Road.
While Chen Wenjun was handling the formalities, Lin Qin called Lin Ying and asked her if she wanted to buy a house for Xu Kang in the capital.
Lin Ying refused without a second thought, "I'm hoping my child will come back to work here after graduating from college! If he stays in the capital, where can I find him? It's impossible."
Since Lin Ying was unwilling, Lin Qin did not continue to persuade her.
Anyway, she had already been informed in advance.
After the couple completed the transfer procedures, they went to find their two children, told them the situation, and then set off back to Anshi.
Without the laughter of the three children, Nanyu suddenly became a lot quieter.
Fortunately, there are two little kids, Chen Ruiming and Xu Xinyi, so Lin Yi doesn't feel too lonely. He just gets distracted when he thinks of those kids occasionally.
Lin Qin saw this and thought, "Dad, why don't I take you to the capital."
Lin Yi came back to his senses and rolled his eyes in annoyance, "Come on! You don't have to spend money on a trip! You have to be able to earn and save! Don't squander all your family's wealth."
After being scolded, Lin Qin decided to keep quiet. Lin Yi started to nag again, "Why didn't you persuade them to stay in our province to go to college? There are good universities in our province, why did they apply to such a faraway place!"
The more he thought about it, the more he regretted it. He had completely lost the joy he felt when his grandchildren were admitted to university.
At times like this, it is better for the couple to choose silence.
Because she was worried about the children and also to comfort Lin Yi, Lin Qin began to write a letter to the children every month, mainly asking about how they were doing in school, whether they had enough money, etc.
The children are also sensible. They always reply immediately after receiving a letter, which makes the adults at home feel a lot more at ease.
Half a semester passed in the blink of an eye.
Lin Yi had just put the matter of the children aside when Lin Zhi started to cause trouble again.
The father and daughter rushed back to the village and went to Lin Qingxiang's house first.
Huang Yuzhen saw Lin Qin and pulled her to start recounting the bad things in Lin Zhi's family. "He is so old and still shameless. He even had an affair with a widow in the village and had a child. His grandson is so grown up, and he is not afraid of being laughed at by others!"
Lin Qin glanced at Lin Yi, whose face was half black, and turned back to ask, "Aunt, what did my cheap second aunt say?"
Huang Yuzhen's mouth twitched, she was a little speechless, "What else can I say? Divorce! She even used you as an example, saying that you were able to turn things around with a little girl, and she can find an old man with better conditions after the divorce, which pissed Lin Zhi off to death.
Lin Zhi was also a scoundrel. He said that after the divorce he could marry the widow and register the illegitimate child. They were having a great time, but Jianqiang was not happy. The boy told Lin Zhi directly that if he dared to marry the widow and register the illegitimate child, he would not acknowledge him as his father, sever all ties with the family, and also demand a share of the family property.
Think about it, Lin Zhi is already fifty years old, and he is not a hardworking person. Is it realistic to let him work alone to support a widow and a child? If he does not divorce and does not acknowledge the child, he does not have to do anything now and can rely on Jianqiang to take care of him in his old age. What do you think he will choose?"
Lin Qin sat down on the stool, "So he broke up with the widow?"
Huang Yuzhen shook her head wildly, "Everyone thinks so, but this guy is not an ordinary person, he doesn't want it! He insisted on registering the illegitimate child, and said that this was God's compensation for him losing a son, which made Li Lian and Jianqiang very angry.
Now the couple is at loggerheads, like enemies, fighting each other whenever they meet. The widow has also been beaten by Li Lian several times, and now she is hiding in her parents' home with her child, waiting for Lin Zhi to marry her!"
Lin Yiqi laughed, "Why would he look for me if he is so capable?"
Lin Qingxiang rubbed his nose, feeling somewhat depressed, "They said they wanted you, the eldest brother, to help plan the wedding."
"Puff!" Lin Qin sprayed the tea in her mouth. "How funny! We haven't been in touch for so many years. Oh, now he finds us when he needs my dad? That's a nice thought! Is he still thinking about my dad preparing a betrothal gift for him?"
Lin Qingxiang didn't say anything, which clearly showed his agreement.
Lin Qin almost couldn't breathe, and pulled Lin Yi and said, "Dad, this kind of shit has nothing to do with us, let's go back."
Lin Yi nodded, frowning, "Don't ask me for help with his family's problems in the future. I don't want to get involved except for funerals."
