Jiang Yan immediately fulfilled the child's request, while an elderly woman nearby shook her head.
"Daughter, you can't spoil your child like this."
Jiang Yan just smiled and didn't say anything. She was willing to spoil her own child like this.
They bought sleeper tickets, two beds. They already brought a lot of stuff, which almost filled the small space.
At first, Liu Yuxuan found it quite novel, but after a while, the scenery became monotonous, and he couldn't sit still. He insisted on going outside.
Liu Jianguo patiently carried him out. However, the train was quite crowded, and there was nowhere else to go, so they eventually chose the dining car.
An hour later, the father and son returned, while the passengers on the other two beds were resting. But Liu Yuxuan just wouldn't listen and kept crying.
A young woman named Ding Yun objected, "Comrade, this space is only so big. Can't you keep the child from crying? This is a public place, not your home. Your actions are seriously affecting my rest."
Jiang Yan felt a little awkward. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this child has never ridden a train before. He'll get used to it in a bit."
Seeing that Jiang Yan's attitude was quite good, the girl continued to lie down.
Listening to the couple comforting their child, I really felt incredibly unlucky to be living with someone like that. I must have been dreaming.
Half an hour passed, and Liu Yuxuan stopped crying, but he kept making a fuss, insisting on going home.
By the time they finally calmed her down, it was noon. Jiang Yan had prepared steamed buns and meat sauce.
This girl must come from a well-off family. She took her lunchbox to get food, but because the dining car was too crowded at this time, she ate her food after getting it.
Liu Yuxuan smelled the stir-fried vegetables and meat, and immediately refused to eat, insisting on having some. Helpless, Liu Jianguo took his lunchbox and went to get his own food.
But they were out of braised pork, so I only bought a serving of rice and a serving of stir-fried cabbage with pork.
Liu Yuxuan was furious. He started crying and demanding meat.
If the child were well-behaved, Ding Yun would have fed him, but this whole morning had been filled with their arguing. She had absolutely no patience for them.
So they ate their own food and completely ignored them.
Liu Yuxuan remained relentless, which angered Liu Jianguo. "Eat it or don't, it's up to you to spoil him."
Seeing Liu Jianguo lose his temper, Jiang Yan also got angry. "So what if the child wants to eat it? You didn't buy it, and you're blaming the child?"
Ding Yun happened to return from washing up the lunchboxes at that moment and overheard their conversation. Standing below, she stared at the three of them. "If you continue to make such a racket, I'm going to find the flight attendant right now. Where is your manners?"
Liu Jianguo was quite embarrassed by the scolding. "Comrade, I'm sorry, we will definitely pay attention."
Liu Yuxuan is a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong. He heard what Ding Yun said. He's over four years old and understands everything.
So he didn't cause any trouble in the afternoon. A man on the bus shook his head, saying, "This family is such a bad influence; this child is ruined."
For dinner, Liu Jianguo took him directly to the dining car. Once outside, Liu Yuxuan became quiet and well-behaved. He ordered all the dishes, and the two of them ate in the dining car.
That night, Jiang Yan cuddled Liu Yuxuan and slept downstairs. She had to help the child drink water and urinate several times during the night.
The next day, Liu Yuxuan leaned listlessly against Jiang Yan's chest. "Mom, how much longer until the vegetables arrive in the capital?"
"One more day, we'll arrive tomorrow afternoon."
"Grandma's house is so far away. I'm never coming here again."
“Yuxuan, you can’t say that. We’re going to visit Grandpa and Grandma, Aunt and the others. My older brother is also at home.”
"I'm not coming."
Hearing her son's words, Jiang Yan felt worried. What if her in-laws wanted to keep Yu Xuan? The child had always lived with her. Her current job was only available sporadically; if it weren't for connections, she would have lost her job long ago.
Because of what happened yesterday, Liu Jianguo still harbored some resentment towards Jiang Yan. Now, watching his son, he was extremely shocked; if the child continued like this, he would truly be ruined.
The child fell asleep at noon. "Jiang Yan, don't you think you're spoiling Yuxuan rotten?"
Jiang Yan glanced at Liu Jianguo with a complicated expression, but did not answer.
“In the past, I always thought he was just a child who didn’t understand, but when I watched him, he clearly understood everything. If this continues, what do you want your child to do in the future?”
Jiang Yan kept her head down and remained silent.
Liu Jianguo finally realized that this child absolutely could not be spoiled like this.
"Children will grow up eventually. Can you accompany him for a lifetime? Can you? If things continue like this, what will he amount to in the future? How will he live when he grows up? How will he support his wife and children?"
Liu Jianguo's questioning made Jiang Yan very sad and angry.
“This is my son, I will raise him.”
"Fine, fine, you can support him. You're unemployed, and I only have this much salary. How are you going to support him in the future? Tell me! Do you think you can just take money from Hongmei for free and feel at ease?"
"If we can't do it, don't we still have his brothers? They're all capable, so how could Yuxuan not have a good life in the future?"
"Jiang Yan, you have really disappointed me. I thought you were a smart person, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid."
Okay, think what you want. I won't say another word for a while. Figure it out yourself.
After Liu Jianguo finished speaking, he went upstairs as well. He was truly disappointed. He only interacted with his child after work, and Yuxuan had never acted like this in front of him before.
This time, he finally witnessed it for himself. He could understand why Jiang Yan doted on her child; after all, she divorced because she didn't have children, which was why they were able to be together.
But what Jiang Yan didn't expect was that she would think this way: she would never favor one of her two sons. Even if Pengfei became successful in the future and Yuxuan was not, she would never ask Pengfei to support Yuxuan.
In the evening, Liu Jianguo made a whole teacup of malted milk powder. He heated the steamed buns in the hot water room.
Liu Yuxuan immediately protested and started crying and making a scene.
Liu Jianguo slapped him on the bottom, which stirred up a hornet's nest. Liu Yuxuan had never been hit before. He started crying and screaming even louder.
"If you cry again, we'll throw you out."
Liu Yuxuan didn't stop at all; he thought his father was just trying to scare him.
Jiang Yan stood right next to the father and son without saying a word.
Liu Jianguo grabbed Liu Yuxuan, opened the car window, and shoved him out.
Liu Yuxuan was now scared. "Dad, Dad, I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't cry anymore."
