Before leaving the yard, Zhao Meiya glanced in the direction of the former Sun family.
Not a single brick or tile of the house has changed, but the people living in it have changed.
Now there are only two married daughters left in the Sun family. Everyone says that it is indeed because of the bad feng shui in his family that unclean things have been attracted to him, and they usually avoid him.
Even the Tan and Chen families who lived there were often brought up, not to mention the Chen family. The story of the two brothers was enough to be discussed for three years.
Tan Wei has always lived a quiet life, but she has often been talked about behind her back because she is single and has two daughters.
Seeing that she can make money, many people rush to introduce her to potential partners. Not only does she refuse, she also drives them away. Isn't this going to create a grudge between them?
For a time, the Tan family's reputation was worse than that of the Chen family, because everyone sympathized with Chen Laishun, an honest man.
After Chen Wanli married into the family, he completely cut off ties with his family, and Chen Pengxiao no longer cared about the family.
Usually, whenever Chen Laishun wanted to eat meat, his daughter-in-law would point fingers at him and make him feel awkward, and there were many fights at home.
Everyone says that he is being controlled by his wife, but a man doesn't have that mindset. What can a woman alone accomplish? It's just that he doesn't want to stand out and doesn't care about his own father.
In terms of children, the two daughters of the Tan family are much better than the two sons of the Chen family.
Zhao Meiya watched coldly. In a few years, the situations of the Chen and Tan families would be very different.
The people in the yard excluded Tan Wei because they couldn't take advantage of her, and they were afraid that they would not even have the chance to be her neighbor in the future.
…
The day before the exam, people in the yard unconsciously walked with lighter steps and spoke in lowered voices, for fear of disturbing the students at home.
He Ruixue felt that it was not good to be nervous all the time. She felt that she had reviewed most of what she needed to review, and the rest, such as some big math and physics questions, she just didn't know how to do, and she couldn't do them even if she was pushed hard.
Why not go out and relax your mind?
Jiang Yanxu accompanied her.
As the two of them strolled down the street, they could clearly feel that there were more bright colors than a few years ago.
Young people used to wear the same gray-blue clothes, but now they wear red and orange shirts, and their shoes have changed from cloth shoes to trendy thick-soled leather shoes, adding a touch of fresh and bright colors to the street scenes that look like old photos.
The park was some distance away from the street, and the two of them walked slowly hand in hand. People on the street were not surprised by this.
Qingyang City is a prefecture-level city and the center of the province. It is closely connected with the Shanghai Stock Exchange and was the first to be impacted by the open trend.
In the past, if a couple walked too close, they would be criticized by the red armbands. Now, young couples can be seen every few steps.
Although they won't openly hold each other's arms, they can often be seen holding hands or walking side by side.
Turning the corner, a loud shout came from the front. Huo Tingxun raised his crutch and hit the boy in front of him with force, "Huo Fuxing, get out of here! How could my Huo family produce such an unworthy person like you!"
Unfortunately, the crutch didn't hit him hard, and the boy dodged it nimbly.
He took advantage of his father's disabled legs and ran around, making faces at him in a nonchalant manner.
"It's not that I want to have the last name Huo. It's you who won't let me live with Mom. If you have the ability, just make Grandpa and Grandma redress their wrongdoings. Then I can do whatever I want. In the end, it's you who's useless. You've made me a laughing stock among my classmates."
"you!"
Huo Tingxun was so angry that he was speechless and his face turned red.
The male protagonist's appearance naturally shows that he can fight, but he has been unsuccessful for a long time and has been suppressed by the Tan family. He looks more haggard than before.
Time has carved fine lines at the corners of his eyes. In the past, he could rely on his looks to deceive the young girls in the art troupe, but now he is just an elder with a little good looks. It is only his overall decency and upright figure that make people take a second look.
Ever since he couldn't make it in the army, he looked for another way out and decisively applied for demobilization. Through his previous connections, he was transferred to the security department of the steel plant in Qingyang City, with the rank of section chief.
The steel plant is a key national unit and its status is actually not low.
But how could the hero be content with his mediocre status quo? He seized the opportunity to contact his old connections to help his parents redress their wrongdoings, while at the same time planning how to move up.
Leaving the army also means leaving the Tan family's sight, and he feels that he can make a more ambitious career.
Unfortunately, life is not as simple as he thought. Just taking care of two children is enough to exhaust him.
It was not possible to hire a nanny these days, and his level was not high enough to have a security guard, so he could only ask his neighbor to do the laundry and cleaning, and give her money privately, so that he could get rid of the tedious housework.
While he was busy fighting for power and profit, the two children were left undisciplined and their ideas had already become distorted.
They were able to indirectly cause their stepmother to have a miscarriage and did not repent afterwards, which shows that they were not kind-hearted children.
In addition, their biological mother often instilled in them the idea that their father would not allow them to meet and would leave all the family property to future children. The children who seemed well-behaved and sensible in the original book have now become bullies.
They poured their bitterness into the teacher's water cup, bullied classmates on the way home, smashed the windows of lonely elderly people's homes, and hit stray cats and dogs on the roadside with stones...
Pure malice has no limits and accumulates in their hearts.
He didn't even care about the law and morality, and naturally had no respect for this incompetent father, only seeing him as a tool to make money.
Huo Tingxun had no doubt that if he died one day, these two people would not be sad for a moment, but would instead focus on fighting for the family property he left behind.
While he was disappointed with the way his children had turned out, he also felt that they were no match for his ex-wife's children, as selfishness was ingrained in their bones and he was afraid that they would never be able to change.
