The latest chapter of Rebirth in the Barracks: Ace Military Marriage is updated the fastest!
Old Madam Xiao Li was not so impulsive. She told her daughter to calm down and said to Father Li, "Tianhao, when I came into this family, I never thought of leaving again."
"You don't have the ability to drive me away. I have been here all my life, and I have taken care of everything in this house. Even though you have become successful now, you want to drive me away. If you really want to do this, I will not let you go easily."
Father Li smiled lightly and motioned to his wife to pour him a glass of water, as he needed to have a good chat with his stepmother.
Meanwhile, Ye received news that Li Jinnian had returned, and her father, whom she had never met, would not spend the New Year in Dangui Garden.
When the old man learned about this, he did not feel sorry at all, because he knew that his son-in-law was a cold-hearted person. He did not agree to his daughter's marriage because he saw through that son-in-law was not a good man.
Her daughter insisted on falling headfirst into the arms of such a cold-hearted man. In the end, she was covered in bruises and only then did she slowly realize that she had trusted the wrong person.
What she thought was love was nothing but her wishful thinking.
Well, then don't come.
"If you don't want to come, then don't come. We'll just wait for your brother to come back, and then the family will be complete." The old man was not affected by this. His son-in-law was no longer his son-in-law, so he just did it for the sake of his grandson Jinnian.
He thought that when Mr. Li was still alive, his son-in-law naturally had to return to the Li family's old house to celebrate the New Year. Once Mr. Li, the backbone of the Li family, left, the only person left in the Li family was Old Madam Li, who had never gotten along with the original wife's son. Now that Mr. Li was gone and this balance point was gone, it was not surprising that something happened at the dinner table on New Year's Eve.
The old man asked his son-in-law to come home to celebrate the New Year because it was a big holiday and he didn't want Li Jinnian to worry about the things that happened in the Li family.
Since my son-in-law doesn't appreciate it, so be it.
After Dad Fu washed up and changed his clothes, Ye Jian chattered around him like a lark. Dad Fu was very patient. Facing his only daughter, he would answer with a smile whatever Ye Jian asked.
"There are only a few days for the New Year. There is traffic jam on the way to the airport and there is traffic jam on the way back from the airport in Beijing. We are all rushing to go home for the New Year."
The old man smiled and said, "The Spring Festival is the biggest festival in our country. People who work away from home will rush home, so the roads will naturally be jammed."
"Nowadays, our country has developed transportation, with highways, railways, and airplanes. It is many times better than our time. One year, I rushed back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year. I first rode a bicycle to a village and stayed at a villager's home for one night. The next morning, I took a villager's donkey cart to the town, then took a tractor from the town to the city, and then took a bus from the city to the provincial capital railway station. This was the real train ride home."
"It only took a week on the road. After that, your grandmother and I never returned to Beijing for the New Year. Your father and your aunt stayed with their fellow villagers. It wasn't until they were ten years old that your grandfather sent them back to Beijing. They lived in the school dormitory all the time."
Life was a bit hard back then, but there was hope. No matter how hard or difficult it was, we could get through it as long as we gritted our teeth.
Dad Fu still has a deep memory of the childhood. "At that time, other children looked forward to the Chinese New Year, but your aunt and I didn't. Other families were very happy during the Chinese New Year, but in our house, it was so cold that ice formed on the walls every day."
Only by recalling the bitter past can one appreciate the sweetness of the past. Father Fu did not hide the hard times in the past. He wanted Ye Jian to know that today's days are all good days compared to the past.
