Protagonist:
Li Xiulan
While Wang Dashan was dumbfounded, his inner self-respect was also ruthlessly crushed to pieces by Miss Du.
"So, in your eyes, that's the kind of person I am?"
Wang Dashan's face wore a weary, bitter smile.
He had always listened to Du Xiaojuan on almost everything.
Especially after Du Xiaojuan became pregnant, he obeyed her even more implicitly.
But unexpectedly, his meticulous care did not earn Du Xiaojuan's gratitude; instead, over a trivial matter, she berated him with the most cutting words.
Wang Dashan knew that what Du Xiaojuan said contained an element of anger.
But words spoken without thinking in anger — aren't those even more the true feelings in one's heart?
Du Xiaojuan's condescending attitude truly hurt Wang Dashan.
After she finished shouting those words, she also felt some regret.
But words once spoken, water once spilled — they are hard to take back.
One can only say pregnancy hormones are truly terrifying; whether during pregnancy or after childbirth, they can affect a woman's emotions, making her sensitive, irritable, unable to control herself.
Before, Du Xiaojuan wasn't like this; no matter what she said or did, she would rationally consider the consequences, weigh the pros and cons.
"Don't say anymore. Just have your dad come to the postpartum center. I'm tired, I don't have the energy to keep running back and forth."
Du Xiaojuan felt a bit guilty; she was very remorseful, didn't dare meet Wang Dashan's eyes, her tone softened, yet her stance remained firm.
Since she couldn't make Wang Zhanggen change his attitude, then let the conflict come sooner.
Now, using the opportunity of the child just being born, even if they fall out completely, she can occupy the moral high ground; even if they never speak again in the end, others will only say Wang Zhanggen doesn't know how to behave, not that Du Xiaojuan is heartless and ruthless.
After all, a woman in confinement has always been the one most in need of care.
"Alright then, let's do as you say."
Wang Dashan didn't want to argue anymore either.
He didn't have that energy either.
Let nature take its course.
If his own father really wants to tear face with Du Xiaojuan, then let them tear face; he doesn't care anymore!
Anyway, no matter how hard he tries to mediate, he'll end up pleasing no one; might as well just lie flat and rot.
"Second Brother, you bring our dad to the postpartum center."
Wang Dashan sent a WeChat reply to Wang Erhai.
Seeing this message, Wang Erhai was very surprised.
He hurriedly replied:
"Aren't you afraid that old thing will cause trouble!"
Wang Dashan just replied:
"That's your Eldest Sister-in-law's decision."
Wang Erhai had nothing to say; in the end he only replied with a single "Okay."
Then he drove off, exited the expressway service area, and headed for the postpartum center where Du Xiaojuan was staying.
Sure enough, the moment the car arrived at the postpartum center, Wang Zhanggen's face darkened.
"Didn't Du Xiaojuan go back to do confinement? How come she's at this postpartum center again?"
Li Xiulan also hurriedly asked Wang Erhai:
"Erhai, did you remember wrong? We should go to Dashan and Xiaojuan's villa side."
Wang Erhai smiled bitterly:
"Dad, Mom, Eldest Sister-in-law is right here. I don't know how to explain it to you; when the time comes, you go ask her yourselves."
Wang Zhanggen gave a cold humph:
"I finally understand! So last time she said she moved back to live with you, you were colluding to deceive me!"
Wang Erhai couldn't help speaking up for Du Xiaojuan:
"Dad, Eldest Sister-in-law earned the money for confinement herself, didn't spend your money, so don't have such a big opinion about it, okay!"
Zhang Yueran also hurriedly came to persuade:
"Dad, calm down. The people staying at this postpartum center are all wealthy. If you make a scene here, won't that make those rich people look down on us? Say we're country bumpkins from the rural area!"
Hearing Zhang Yueran's words, Wang Zhanggen didn't say anything more.
Wang Dashan came down to receive everyone and take them upstairs.
He didn't know how to explain to Wang Zhanggen either; he had already prepared himself mentally to be scolded badly by Wang Zhanggen.
Unexpectedly, Wang Zhanggen said nothing at all, just his face black as charcoal.
Simmering in silence, not uttering a word.
The elevator rose; inside the elevator no one spoke; the atmosphere was a bit subtle.
Arriving at the room where Du Xiaojuan was doing confinement.
Wang Erhai already felt the storm was about to break; his heart clenched in a cold sweat.
Unexpectedly, Wang Zhanggen still didn't say a word.
Du Xiaojuan saw everyone, only gave a faint greeting, then didn't say anything more.
She didn't even spare Wang Changgen another glance.
Li Xiulan finally saw her precious grandson, picked him up, and teased him with a beaming smile.
"He looks so much like Dashan! It's exactly as if he were cast from the same mold as Dashan when he was just born!"
Li Xiulan was beaming.
Zhang Yueran also came over to look at the child, then offered auspicious words:
"This child is truly adorable. When he grows up, he'll definitely be like Big Brother — over 1.8 meters tall and very handsome!"
Wang Dashan smiled dryly:
"Hope so."
Wang Erhai, sensing the atmosphere wasn't right, hurriedly changed the subject:
"Speaking of which, how come Third Brother still isn't here?"
Wang Dashan said:
"Third Brother and his wife are already on the road; they'll be here in a bit."
Just then, Wang Dashan's mobile phone rang.
It was Wang Xiaohua calling.
"Big Brother, we've arrived!"
Wang Dashan hurriedly opened the door and went out, heading for the elevator while answering the call:
"Wait for me downstairs, I'll come get you!"
Wang Dashan jogged into the elevator and arrived downstairs.
Upon seeing Wang Xiaohua and Li Jianjia, he immediately sought help:
"Third Brother, Third Sister-in-law, you two hurry up and help me think of a way, otherwise something big is going to happen!"
Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but be stunned:
"Big Brother, what's the matter? Why so flustered?"
Li Jianjia was also puzzled.
Today everyone gathered together to visit the child and take a big group photo — isn't that a joyous, happy occasion?
How could something big be about to happen?
Wang Dashan then told them truthfully:
"Dad doesn't agree to Xiao Juan going to a postpartum center for confinement, saying it wastes money. Last time he came here, we lied and said she went back to the villa area for confinement. But this time he originally said he wasn't coming, yet later he came anyway for some reason, and then Xiao Juan wasn't willing to go back and forth anymore, insisting on staying here. Now Dad has arrived here, his face has been dark the whole time, and Xiao Juan is also full of anger. The whole room is like a powder keg simmering away. I reckon if this goes on, a huge quarrel will explode!"
Wang Xiaohua was extremely surprised upon hearing this.
Then he hurriedly said:
"Since there's such a problem, why didn't you have Wu Banxian mention last time when you went to find him that Sister-in-law absolutely must do confinement at a postpartum center, and that doing confinement at home is bad for the child?"
Wang Dashan slapped his own forehead hard:
"You didn't remind me of this point at the time, and I didn't think of it either; I only focused on the matter of not holding a confinement banquet!"
Wang Xiaohua didn't know whether to cry or laugh:
"Big Brother, your way of thinking about problems is really too straightforward, isn't it?"
To put it nicely it's straightforward; to put it bluntly it's one-track-minded.
Wang Dashan's face was full of bitter smiles:
"Saying these things is useless now. Hurry up and help me think of a way — how to solve the current problem, otherwise this powder keg is really going to blow!"
