Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Wang Zhanggen had finally gotten the grandson he had longed for day and night, so naturally he wanted to throw a big banquet and show off a bit!

That's just his character!

When he was young, he was always looked down on by others!

He himself had no ability!

To the point of being both inferior and stubbornly competitive!

Proud yet vain!

Getting a grandson — such a glorious event for the family — you think you can stop him from showing off? That's absolutely impossible!

Originally, he planned to discuss this matter face-to-face with Wang Dashan and Du Xiaojuan in Guangzhou.

But because he was old and his mind wasn't sharp anymore, plus he had been angered quite a bit by Wang Erhai along the way, he forgot about it for a moment.

It wasn't until Wang Erhai was driving him back on the road that he suddenly remembered!

Wang Erhai was still driving on the expressway, but he insisted Wang Erhai call immediately to ask.

Wang Erhai had no choice but to pull into the nearest service area, stop, and while going to the toilet, make this call to his eldest brother.

Why go to the toilet to call? Because he didn't want to call next to Wang Zhanggen; otherwise, if he heard something he didn't like, he'd probably get angry again!

If Big Brother and Sister-in-law didn't want to hold the full moon banquet, this old thing might even demand he turn back right now and hash it out face-to-face with Big Brother and Sister-in-law!

With his rotten temper, he really could do something like that!

Wang Erhai still had to go back to work!

He couldn't spend the whole day revolving around Wang Zhanggen!

Wang Zhanggen's unreasonable demand reminded Wang Erhai of Liu Mei Qi's mother.

Thinking back, when Wang Erhai had just married Liu Mei Qi and was driving Liu Mei Qi's family back, Liu Mei Qi's mother also made a scene on the expressway, insisting on getting out of the car or something.

Wang Erhai couldn't remember clearly, because that memory was too dark; his subconscious had intentionally or unintentionally blocked out that segment.

Anyway, Liu Mei Qi's mother made a scene on the expressway.

And now Wang Zhanggen was also making a scene on the expressway!

This made Wang Erhai wonder: do people all become like this when they get old — bad-tempered, unreasonable, disrespectful despite their age?

Back then he still disliked Liu Mei Qi's mother, thinking she was a crazy woman!

Now look at his own biological father!

Simply beyond words!

Wang Dashan's voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Second Brother, my wife says we're not holding the full moon banquet."

Wang Erhai let out a deep breath:

"Whether you hold it or not, I have no opinion."

He stated his stance first, then said:

"But Dad, I'm afraid he'll have a big opinion. Anyway, I can't get through to him; you call and tell him yourself."

He knew Big Brother and Sister-in-law might not want to hold the full moon banquet.

Fortunately, he kept a backup plan, making this call while going to the toilet.

Wang Erhai felt his heart was so tired.

He really didn't want to deal with this anymore.

So after hanging up, he got back in the car and said to Wang Zhanggen:

"Big Brother said he hasn't decided yet, needs to discuss with Sister-in-law; once they've decided, he'll call and let you know!"

Wang Zhanggen wore a long face, muttering:

"What's there to discuss! The full moon banquet must be held within one month of the child's birth; it absolutely cannot be dragged out!"

Wang Erhai nodded with a face full of exhaustion:

"Right, right, right, can't drag it out. If Big Brother doesn't call you in a couple days, you call and urge him then! For now, let's head back first."

Wang Zhanggen didn't say anything more.

Wang Erhai glanced at him from the corner of his eye.

Seeing that although he was gloomy and unhappy, he didn't continue making a scene, he breathed a sigh of relief.

And at this time, on the other side.

Wang Dashan, facing Du Xiaojuan, was also in a dilemma.

Because he knew his father would absolutely not back down on the full moon banquet matter.

He finally got a grandson; how could you expect him not to hold a banquet?

"Wife, don't be impulsive, okay? I think holding the full moon banquet isn't a bad thing."

However, Du Xiaojuan had a different idea:

"This isn't about whether to hold the full moon banquet or not; it's that your father really went too far! Yesterday he came to see the kid without our consent and said those excessive things; it's only because I'm more reasonable that I cooperated with you to put on an act and coaxed him back. If it were another woman, encountering this during her postpartum confinement, she'd cut ties for the rest of her life!"

Du Xiaojuan also said:

"This is a matter of bottom lines. Retreat one step today, retreat one step tomorrow; in the future, there'll be no end to the retreating! And your dad will only get more and more excessive, more and more pushy!"

Wang Dashan smiled bitterly all over his face:

"Then what do I do? How do I tell my dad?"

Du Xiaojuan said:

"You just say straight out that you're not going back. If he wants to go back, he can go back himself. Anyway, I won't go back, and the child might have to be taken back by you. He's still so small, he must stay with me!"

Du Xiaojuan's attitude was extremely firm.

The main thing is Wang Zhanggen wouldn't let her stay at the Postpartum Center, and he even said those sarcastic remarks — it was really too much!

She doesn't spend a single penny of the Wang Family's money. Even though you're an Elder, what qualifications do you have to point fingers and meddle?

What should be said and what shouldn't be said — after living so many years, don't you know?

Wang Dashan sighed:

"Wife, don't put me in a difficult position, okay?"

Hearing these words, Du Xiaojuan became even angrier.

She directly confronted him back:

"So you're going to make things difficult for me? Why should I swallow my grievances and compromise! I've already been tolerant enough dealing with your parents' rotten affairs. I've given the Wang Family people enough Face! Look at my parents' side — they treat me badly, and I directly cut off relations with them. Your parents' side, to tell the honest truth, are just the same as my parents. There's essentially no big difference. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even look at them straight in the eye, I wouldn't be called Du Xiaojuan!"

Wang Dashan didn't know what to say.

Du Xiaojuan said again:

"You'd better think clearly. The rest of your life is to be spent with me, not with your unreasonable scumbag of a father!"

Although these words were harsh to the ears, they were the honest truth.

A birth father, though blood is thicker than water, but the rest of one's life is indeed spent with one's wife.

Most importantly, Wang Dashan's father never really fulfilled a father's responsibilities. With such a person, there's actually no need to obey his every word. Just give some living expenses normally, go back and help out when there's something — getting too close instead makes conflicts easy to arise.

However, Du Xiaojuan's harsh words also hurt Wang Dashan's self-esteem.

It made Wang Dashan feel that the reason Du Xiaojuan dared to shout at him like this, not giving him any Face at all, wasn't it because he earns less than Du Xiaojuan?

So this made his attitude towards earning money even more eager.

His current life is actually very good, and he earns more money than the majority of people.

But because Du Xiaojuan is really too capable of earning.

To the extent that whether it's family members or outsiders, they all always think he's the one eating soft rice.

Actually, no one else has ever said this to him directly. It's just that he himself feels this way in his heart.

He even feels that people might discuss him behind his back, mock him.
