In the end, they didn't finish the meal. Lu Shi took Zhang Weifang back home with a tactful look.
Zhang Weiren called his son into the bedroom and asked for his opinion:
"Son, are you sure you want to marry this girl?"
Zhang Shijie nodded seriously:
"Dad, she's very nice. Even though she speaks directly, she listens to me very much."
Zhang Weiren felt like he was about to have a heart attack. His son was so old, and he couldn't get angry. He could only say earnestly:
"Shijie, since ancient times, the rich marry daughters-in-law, and the poor marry daughters. You and Wang Xia are not suitable in any way. Marriage is not a joke. It is the union of two families and the reorganization of three views."
"This girl may be as simple and straightforward as you said, but on the other hand, she doesn't understand the ways of the world. It will be difficult for her to balance her career and family in the future."
Zhang Shijie had never experienced marriage, so his thinking was very simple:
"Dad, don't worry, I will control her. No one is perfect, but at least she is true to her nature."
Parents are always unable to go against their children. Zhang Shijie returned to Taipei and got married with Wang Xia not long after.
Zhang Weiren was unhappy, but he did not stop them. He just told them to hold the wedding in Taipei and not return to their hometown.
During the Chinese New Year, Zhang Shijie brought his wife back. They all went back to the village to visit the old lady and had a meal together. Wang Xia felt like she had found a new way forward and she completely became a daughter-in-law of the Zhang family.
Zhang Weishuang has always been straightforward. While she said she wanted to live a good life, she was secretly wondering, "Why are the sons-in-law and daughters-in-law of the Weiren family both of this kind... a bit of a mismatch?"
When Wang Xia returned to her hometown during the Spring Festival, she was still bare-faced, with dry and chapped lips and dark yellow skin. The contrast between her and her mother-in-law Liang Qing was too stark.
Even though Liang Qing has wrinkles, her temperament and image are still outstanding, and Wang Xia standing next to her looks like a little nanny.
She doesn't like to dress up, or doesn't know how to dress up. She's wearing a long red down jacket, which makes her look even darker.
However, the smile on her face proved that she was living a good life and Zhang Shijie was very good to her.
Wang Xia works as a counselor at a third-tier college. Looking at her younger children at school, she started to talk at the side:
"Don't apply to my school. The tuition alone is tens of thousands of yuan, and your education level is not high. It's almost useless for finding a job. If you want to apply, try to get into a second-tier university or above."
Some children who wanted to go to school in Taipei City also asked:
"Is it easy to get into a second-tier university in Taipei?"
"What are you thinking? That's the capital. Unless you have exceptional grades, you'd better not choose Taipei."
Not long after the Chinese New Year, Wang Xia discovered that she was pregnant. She was the same age as Zhang Shijie, also 30 years old, so she was very much looking forward to this child.
Because this year is the Olympic year, there will be restrictions on the number of people and vehicles entering the North City during the Games.
In order to make it easier for her in-laws to take care of her during the confinement period, Wang Xia returned to Weiyu City in August and moved directly into her in-laws' home.
Liang Qing is a good person. She treats her daughter-in-law as her own and takes care of her wholeheartedly.
But Wang Xia didn't think so. Every day, with her big belly, she would go to the gate to chat with others. She knew all the gossip about the neighbors and always complained that her mother-in-law didn't serve her well enough.
At the end of September, Wang Xia gave birth to a son. After the birth of the child, she became more confident. She was picky about food and people every day, and even provoked Zhang Weiren.
Liang Qing initially thought that Wang Xia was in confinement after giving birth and that she just needed to be patient. However, Wang Xia was really too much. She found fault with the two old people every day and was dissatisfied with everything.
A month later, Zhang Weiren called his son to take his wife and children away:
"From now on, except for the Chinese New Year, you don't have to come back. We can't take care of the child. I will give you 30,000 yuan a year until the child starts elementary school. The rest is up to you."
As soon as Wang Xia left, Zhang Weiren's neighbors all breathed a sigh of relief. It was really because her voice was too loud and the noise she made every day made everyone uneasy.
Liang Qing and Zhang Weiren also breathed a sigh of relief because this daughter-in-law was really difficult to serve.
After returning to Taipei, Zhang Shijie hired a nanny to take care of Wang Xia and her child, while he himself had to go to work.
Wang Xia stopped making a fuss at home because she really didn't have the energy to do so. Her son was very difficult to coax and would cry non-stop every night, making her exhausted.
The nanny does not live at home. She is only responsible for daytime housework and three meals a day. At night, the children have to be looked after by both parents.
Zhang Shijie felt sorry for his wife and helped take care of the children. However, he had to work during the day and couldn't sleep well at night. He lacked energy every day, and his work also made mistakes. In the end, he had to resign and go home.
The couple raised the child together, and life became much better. But after a hundred days, Wang Xia urged Zhang Shijie to go out to work. The family needed money all the time, so how could both of them stay at home?
After Zhang Shijie went to work, Wang Xia was left alone at home to take care of the child. Although there was a nanny, the nanny only did housework and was not responsible for taking care of the child.
Wang Xia's children are very naughty, which gives her a lot of headaches.
One day, the nanny was cooking and Wang Xia was coaxing her child. She wasn't paying attention and her son grabbed the mobile phone next to her pillow. The child was weak and didn't hold it firmly, so he hit the phone on his forehead.
With a "bang", a swelling appeared on the child's forehead. The child cried in pain, and Wang Xia was wiping her tears beside him. The mother and child cried loudly together, which scared the nanny.
In the end, it was the nanny who helped apply some medicine on the child and coaxed him for a long time before the child stopped crying.
There were countless similar things happening. In this way, the child soon turned six months old. After six months, the child was able to eat complementary foods, and he became much more well-behaved.
The baby sits in the baby chair every day waiting to eat complementary food. He is so cute and he no longer cries at night.
In the past six months, the couple has spent more than 100,000 yuan, and all their savings have been used up. They can no longer afford a nanny.
After the nanny left, Wang Xia had to take care of the child alone. At first, it was fine, but gradually, her temper became worse and worse, and she also complained to Zhang Shijie:
"I'm almost dying of exhaustion. You said that after all, I gave birth to a grandson for the Zhang family, your father really doesn't care about me anymore?"
"Didn't my dad give you the money? Besides, your personality doesn't get along with them."
"I don't care. I'm too tired anyway. Think of other ways!"
Seeing that the house was as messy as a pigsty, Zhang Shijie had to clean it up while regretting it. He really regretted marrying his wife. He didn't expect her to be so difficult to deal with and, most importantly, she didn't like cleanliness.
