Protagonist:

Chai Mi

Why Chai You De married Che Lianyun is a long story.

But ultimately it comes down to people.

Chai Zhongxiao had a heart that liked to curry favor with the powerful... the old Chai family had been poor for many generations, never producing anyone who made something of themselves. Chai You De and Che Lianyun were originally junior high classmates; coincidentally, after Che Lianyun graduated high school, she failed to get into university, turned to work, and was assigned to San Jia Xiaoxue, becoming a community teacher.

As for Chai You De, he was lazy and gluttonous, unlearned and unskilled, addicted to drink at a young age—a typical case of aiming too high but being good for nothing.

Moreover, the old Chai family's relations were so bad it was bizarre, and before long Chai You De was nearly a lifelong bachelor.

As a result, through twists of fate, Chai You De and "Xiao Doubao" Che Lianyun exchanged glances and became a couple.

Chai Zhongxiao was extremely satisfied, after all Che Lianyun was someone with a proper job... she ate "imperial grain," and if she worked hard, maybe "when one person attains the Dao, even chickens and dogs ascend to heaven"...

Chai You De was also rather spineless; in the family, big or small matters, everything was decided by Che Lianyun—she was a presence whose word carried great weight.

Che Lianyun had always acted tyrannically in the Chai family, often mocking Chai Mi's family with cold sarcasm. Previously, Chai Youqing and Su Wan both avoided Che Lianyun.

Even someone as honest and simple as Chai Youqing said Che Lianyun was not a good person, so one can imagine Che Lianyun's reputation was widespread... it should be said her infamy was widespread.

But Chai Mi didn't care at all.

Chai Mi glanced at Chai Youqing: "The land, I'll get it back for you. The work, you do it."

That piece of land behind Wuhu Mountain was, after all, wasteland, and there were no large machines at this time, so it could only be reclaimed by manual labor. Chai Mi's mother also fell ill from exhaustion, all because that piece of land was indeed difficult to reclaim. If not for that, it would never have been Chai Mi's family's turn to... if there were bargains to be had, someone would have had their eye on it long ago.

"I told you to go home and ask for money, you didn't get the money back, you didn't get the land back, and instead you gave me a calf as a gift!" Chai Mi was very dissatisfied with Chai Youqing's actions, even though Chai Youqing was her father: "My mom is sick and has no time to deal with you. But I can't live this life with you anymore."

Chai Mi paused, then said meaningfully: "You need to work hard and learn a lesson; this family still exists. If you listen to my grandmother about everything, without distinguishing right from wrong, then don't come back to this home in the future—go wherever you want, my mom won't live with you either, and she'll definitely divorce you. Don't expect me to give you a good face... I can't beat or scold you, after all you're still my father. But, rest assured, I have plenty of methods to make your head buzz all day. I won't learn the good, but I learn the bad quickly... if you don't want a broken home and scattered children, you'd better think it over."

Chai Youqing stood stunned in place, unable to say anything for a long time.

When he looked again, Chai Mi had already disappeared.

Chai Youqing, somewhat lost in spirit, went outside to fetch some firewood to cook.

As a result, he forgot to add water, and burned the pot until it exploded...

Chai Youqing had to find leftover rice, wanting to just make do with a bite, but accidentally broke the bowl...

Chai Youqing sighed, sat on the kang head, lifted the thermos—there was still water—and poured a cup of hot water with a teacup... as a result, the water was too hot, and the teacup's bottom shattered...

Chai Youqing:...

Chai Youqing himself was bewildered, thinking in his heart: Could it be that I was wrong?!?!

Afterwards Chai Youqing ran to the west room, before the portrait of the Kitchen God, burned incense and paper, muttering words under his breath...
