Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

"Your big brother is just a dead stubborn donkey! Beyond saving!"

Du Xiaojuan was still cursing Wang Dashan with her mouth, but her attitude was clearly not as sharp as before.

"Eldest Sister-in-law, Big Brother's attitude, you didn't just find out about it now; it's easy to change the landscape but hard to change one's nature."

Wang Xiaohua said thus.

Du Xiaojuan then said:

"Then am I supposed to just watch him jump off a cliff and not care? To put it harshly, if he wants to jump let him jump, but don't drag me and my son into the abyss with him! It's only because I can earn money relatively well now; switch to another family, how many years would it take to earn over 5 million? Might not earn it in a whole lifetime!"

Wang Xiaohua chimed in:

"Never mind a lifetime, how many people can't earn 5 million in several lifetimes!"

Du Xiaojuan then said:

"Then you go persuade your big brother, turning back is salvation!"

Wang Xiaohua then said:

"Persuade is definitely what should be done, but one must pay attention to method. Eldest Sister-in-law, not that I'm saying anything about you, but that communication method of yours just now, do you think it was appropriate?"

Du Xiaojuan fell silent.

In her heart she actually knew it was inappropriate.

It's just that after giving birth her hormone levels changed too much, causing her emotions to become very unstable.

She wasn't like this before.

Still remember before when she communicated with Wang Dashan, she was very respectful of Wang Dashan, one could say she practically coaxed Wang Dashan like a child, and then many conflicts would just resolve silently and imperceptibly.

The two could be said to have overcome all kinds of shortcomings from both families, as well as their own various shortcomings, before finally achieving a happy result.

Originally everything was developing in a good direction.

After all, career-wise, both of them counted as quite successful.

But who would have thought, after giving birth, it would actually bring so many side effects.

Du Xiaojuan also knew her personality had changed.

But personality this thing, once changed, it's not like she can control it just by wanting to control it, especially when emotions flare up.

Can only say, when a person is fragile, emotions are prone to instability.

Wang Zhanggen was like this after getting cancer, and she was like this after giving birth.

"Then you say, what to do now?"

Du Xiaojuan was silent for a long while, then asked Wang Xiaohua this one sentence.

The biggest difference between her and Wang Dashan is that she can correct her mistakes, possessing a kind of super strong ability to stop losses in time.

So now she humbly asks Wang Xiaohua for advice, what to do.

Wang Xiaohua then said:

"Eldest Sister-in-law, dwelling on Big Brother's mistakes now is already meaningless. We have to make it so that in the future when he encounters similar situations, he won't make the same mistakes again. You say right or not?"

"The principles I all understand, but he's just a stubborn donkey, whatever I say he doesn't listen."

Du Xiaojuan said thus.

Wang Xiaohua thought for a bit, then said:

"How about this, you just don't treat him as your husband, you treat him as a client. You need to reach some cooperation agreement, then you go talk to him."

"But, he is my husband." Du Xiaojuan was stunned.

"It's precisely because you treat him as your husband that you argue. Have you ever torn faces and argued with a client? Unless you don't want to cooperate anymore, then you'd tear faces and argue."

Wang Xiaohua said thus.

Du Xiaojuan savored it carefully, and also felt it made sense.

Marriage, in essence, is also a kind of cooperation.

Tearing faces and arguing, that brings absolutely no benefit to this cooperation.

Instead it would lead to both sides tearing up the agreement, parting ways — that is, divorce.

"Eldest Sister-in-law, I'm also not saying let you indulge Big Brother in everything, more not asking you to indulge him. To put it unpleasantly, Big Brother this person has no scheming; with Eldest Sister-in-law your ability, if you mastered the technique, leading him around wouldn't be as easy as a dog? Why get to the point of swords drawn and bows bent?"

Du Xiaojuan didn't speak anymore, but Wang Xiaohua's words she loved to hear.

Exactly, with her ability, able to build Xiao Du Technology from nothing to an IPO, could it be she can't even handle Wang Dashan this one man with four developed limbs and a simple brain?

If she can't handle him, that would be too much of a failure.

Wang Xiaohua saw Du Xiaojuan's complexion had changed, then said:

"Eldest Sister-in-law, you consider it well, whether what I said is right or not. If you feel it's not right, then treat it as me never having said it."

Du Xiaojuan then said:

"What you said is very right, it's me who didn't do well enough. Wang Dashan this dead stubborn donkey, I shouldn't have used a whip to lash him. From now on when I communicate with him, I'll pay a bit more attention."

Speaking to here, she yet again shifted her tone, involuntarily mocking herself:

"Just, me a female CEO worth over a hundred million, having to coax your big brother this man like this, honestly feels quite pathetic. Sigh, had I known I wouldn't have given birth to this child."

Wang Xiaohua hearing this, couldn't help but be stunned.

Du Xiaojuan this kind of mindset is also one of the important reasons causing the imbalance in her and Wang Dashan's relationship.

One person progresses too fast, the other can't keep up; this kind of marriage relationship is very prone to crisis.

Especially when the woman is strong and the man is weak.

If it's the man who's strong and the woman weak, as long as the man has even a shred of sense of responsibility, or for the sake of the children, he will choose to marry down.

Whereas a woman's mindset naturally admires strength, and is worlds apart from a man's mindset.

Those housewives without income, after being with their husbands for a long time, will still find fault with them left and right, casually belittling their men as useless good-for-nothings with no earning ability, feeling they've suffered and lost out.

Let alone a woman like Du Xiaojuan who is successful in her career; after they've grown sick of each other, she probably looks down on her man even more.

Fortunately, the relationship between her and Wang Dashan hasn't deteriorated to that extent yet.

There's still a chance to salvage it.

And this salvation mainly lies in a change of mindset.

Not only does Wang Dashan's mindset need to change, Du Xiaojuan's mindset also needs to change.

Otherwise their marriage definitely won't last long.

"Eldest Sister-in-law, don't you think this child is born for Big Brother; this child is a part of your life's continuation. I know raising a child is exhausting. Handing it over entirely to a confinement nanny worries you, so why not let my mom come down to help look after the baby?"

"Your mom, can she handle it?"

Du Xiaojuan frowned.

To tell the truth, she didn't quite trust Li Xiulan.

It's not that Li Xiulan is a bad person, but her way of raising children in the rural area before was the equivalent of free-range like cats and dogs; what does she know?

Wang Xiaohua said:

"My mom raising the kid might not work too well, but having her keep an eye on the confinement nanny for you — isn't that easy as pie?"

Hearing this, Du Xiaojuan also felt it was reasonable.

She'd been wanting to go back to the company, but could never get away, precisely because there was no one to watch Kang Yi; she wasn't reassured leaving the child with Kang Yi alone.

It's not that she distrusted Kang Yi, but the human heart is unfathomable; not fearing ten thousand, just fearing the one-in-ten-thousand chance.

So Du Xiaojuan said:

"Alright then, I'll have Wang Dashan go talk to your mom later... only..."

Du Xiaojuan suddenly hesitated again:

"Your dad's health isn't good either; doesn't he need looking after too? If your mom comes down, what about your dad?"

This is indeed a big problem.

Because Wang Zhanggen definitely wouldn't be willing to come down and stay long-term.
