Chapter 503 You Know Best
"I don't mean anything. I just want to remind you that if you want to pretend, you should do it thoroughly, or don't pretend at all. Otherwise you will get confused in the end," he said and lowered his head to wash up.
Ming Lihua argued in a low voice: "Wen Haichao, I have known you for more than ten years, and we have been married for more than nine years. You have never thought about my well-being, right!
What's wrong with me?
Yes, you are good-looking and capable, and you were able to go to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University in the provincial capital with your own abilities, and then came to Kyoto for further studies.
But I’m not bad either. In City N, how many people can compare to me in appearance?
The guys who chased after me back then could surround an entire department store!
Besides, my family lives in the city, my parents are both working, and I don’t have any burden at all.
Is it worth it that you have disliked me for so long?
In your heart, I am not even as good as Jingqiu!"
Wen Haichao caught a glimpse of her angry face in the mirror.
Ten years can change a lot of things. The once flamboyant and bright girl now has some fine lines on her face. Years of jealousy and harshness have shaved off three points of her beauty and added five points of materialism. Her appearance has long become vulgar.
"Ming Lihua, you know better than anyone how our marriage came about.
I have given you so many chances, but what did you do every time?
You sent Qiuqiu away without a word. Tell me, was it really for her own good, or were you just eyeing the 1,200 yuan in the contract?"
There was no trace of anger in Wen Haichao's tone, he was just calmly stating the facts.
He continued brushing his teeth slowly with his eyelids lowered.
Ming Lihua's face turned pale and blue, "Yes, I did it for the 1,200 yuan!"
After saying this, she felt relieved, and said, "Wen Haichao, it doesn't cost any money to buy all the things in this room?
You are a small leader, but you only make a hundred or eighty yuan a month, not even enough to buy an electric fan.
These 1,200 yuan can not only pay off our loan for buying a house, but also buy some nice new clothes for our family.
Moreover, this program was organized by An Zhixia. Don’t you approve of her?
I sent Jingqiu to participate in this program, which is exactly what you want. Maybe I can even have a chance to meet your white moonlight!"
“Ming Lihua!” Wen Haichao rinsed his mouth, wiped the corners of his lips and stared at her gloomily: “Don’t think that everyone has the same bad intentions as you!
I admire Teacher Xiao An. Not only me, but everyone who knows her abilities cannot resist her, including Mr. De, who often praises her.
But this appreciation is not mixed with any love between men and women, haha, I have to thank you for this.
Because of you, I am afraid I will never be able to love in this life!"
“Wen Haichao!” Ming Lihua couldn’t help but scream, not caring whether this was a live broadcast or not, and she was a little upset: “Don’t you put all the blame on me, don’t you have any problems?
Everything is mutual. If you were nicer to me, I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to win your attention and love.
We have been married for almost ten years, how many times have you touched me?"
Wen Haichao looked at her sarcastically: "How many times, don't you know best?
Why do you need to ask me this?"
Ming Lihua took a deep breath and said, "I won't argue with you!"
She turned around and was about to go to the bedroom, but when she saw Shan Weiyuan sleeping on the bed, she felt annoyed and picked up her clothes and went out.
Shan Weiyuan opened one of his squinting eyes and looked directly at Father Wen’s.
He smiled awkwardly and scratched his head: "Dad, I didn't mean to hear it, you guys were just talking too loudly."
"It has nothing to do with you," Father Wen smiled, "Now that you're awake, get up. Let's go outside and eat some buns. I'll take you to school."
Shan Weiyuan was very efficient and ended the battle in just five minutes.
Wen Jiatong, on the other hand, finished washing up in a hurry with a nervous look on her face. She had two crooked braids and her clothes were not dressed neatly.
Father Wen came forward and tidied it up for her.
"Dad, was I naughty, so you had a fight with Mom?" She asked with tears in her eyes and pursed lips.
Father Wen's expression eased slightly, "This is an adult matter, you just need to eat well, sleep well, and study hard."
"But I'm afraid that my sister and I will become the poor children whose parents are divorced," she couldn't help but cry. "Dad, please don't blame Mom, okay? She talks about you every day. No one in the world loves you as much as she does."
Father Wen said calmly: "Wen Jiatong, I hope you can go to school well and establish the right values. Don't be like your mother who refuses to turn back even if she hits a wall.
Everyone has his or her own life. You can't force me and your mother to be together forever just because of you and Qiuqiu.
Many things are not correct just because you see them.
Be good, take your schoolbag and put on your shoes, we are going to eat."
Wen Jiatong bit her lip tightly and hummed, then went to get her schoolbag. When she passed Shan Weiyuan, she saw him gloating and couldn't help but glared at him and whispered, "You and your sister are both bad guys. You made Dad dislike Mom!"
"Hey, I didn't say anything, and I didn't do anything," Shan Weiyuan raised his hands and said, "It's obviously because the problems between your father and your mother are too serious. If it were you, I would say that it would be better to just break up instead of letting everyone be tied together in pain.
Now it is a new society, and there are still many couples in our village who are divorcing and looking for their own happiness.
Life is so long, why torture each other? "
"You don't understand anything!" Wen Jiatong said angrily, tears falling down her face.
She wiped it off vigorously, went into the house to pick up her schoolbag, and lowered her head to change her shoes.
Shan Weiyuan shrugged his shoulders and walked out with his bag slung over his shoulder.
It is a very happy thing to eat big meat buns with thin skin and rich fillings from the supply and marketing cooperative in the morning. Even if you are in a bad mood, as long as you feel the fat and tender juice sliding down your throat, your whole body will be filled with happiness and satisfaction.
Shan Weiyuan restrained himself and ate six large meat buns in one go. Each one cost 20 cents, and the whole meal cost 1.2 yuan. He couldn't help but look at Wen's father's face.
After all, the father and daughter only ate three.
And just now the waiter asked Father Wen to pay the bill. Including what he ate and took away last night, the total amount was more than fourteen dollars!
However, Father Wen looked indifferent and ordered two more bowls of egg soup, placing one bowl in front of him and pouring out a small half of the other bowl and pushing it to Wen Jiatong.
Shan Weiyuan felt embarrassed and could only whisper, "Dad, I ate a little too much, but don't worry, my family treats Qiu very well, and definitely gives her two eggs a day, milk powder, meat, fish and shrimp in turn.
Before I came, my grandmother was still nagging me to dig out the good fabrics she had saved and the new cotton she planted last year to make cotton clothes for the little guest. "
Father Wen patted his head and said with a smile, "Are you worried that I will be harsh on your stomach?"
