Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

After playing a few rounds of games, it was dinner time. Li Xiulan came upstairs to call Wang Dashan down to eat.

Wang Dashan said to "The Strong's Strong": "Going to eat, not playing for now. How about we add each other on WeChat? We cooperate really well; we can team up and play together whenever we have time in the future!"

The other party was also having a great time playing, and surprisingly agreed readily:

"Sure!"

Then they added each other as WeChat friends.

Wang Dashan opened the other party's WeChat Moments and discovered they only displayed the last three days, with no content at all.

However, the WeChat ID was zhangzhiqiang123. This was very obvious — this was Zhang Zhiqiang!

Upon learning that Zhang Zhiqiang played Honor of Kings, and was a ten-thousand-match player with a fairly high rank, even possessing a provincial title, Wang Dashan's mood became quite complex.

The idea of sponsoring Zhang Jiajun was no longer that strong.

This person wasn't sickly and unable to do anything; he just didn't dare face reality, hiding in games to fight, putting all his time into games, not caring at all about his elderly mother or his young child!

He was indeed a cripple, but that wasn't a reason for him to wash his hands of everything.

Down on the first floor, while eating dinner.

Wang Dashan lowered his head and suddenly said a sentence to Du Xiaojuan:

"Sorry."

Although this apology was stiff, it made Du Xiaojuan's expression tremble for a moment, leaving her very surprised:

"Yo, the sun rose from the west? You actually know how to say sorry to me?"

Du Xiaojuan couldn't even remember when was the last time Wang Dashan said sorry to her.

Li Xiulan laughed "hehe" on the side:

"Husband and wife — a quarrel at the bedhead is resolved at the foot of the bed. Which family hasn't come through bickering and noise? Xiao Juan, don't blame Dashan too much. He already apologized to you!"

Du Xiaojuan said:

"I didn't say I wouldn't forgive him. That quarrel this afternoon wasn't any big thing."

At this moment she said to Wang Dashan:

"Wang Dashan, I thought of an idea. Aren't we making short videos? Bring Zhang Jiajun's dad along to do it, give him some wages — wouldn't that solve it perfectly?"

But Wang Dashan said:

"His dad just plays games, has played over ten thousand matches, his rank is quite a bit higher than mine. He doesn't even take care of his own kid, so we still shouldn't meddle."

Wang Dashan thought that by saying this, the matter would end there.

But Du Xiaojuan fell into thought. After thinking for a moment, she then said:

"A disabled person playing games, and a game expert at that — hmm, that's a gimmick, can generate traffic! Later we'll bring him to try a livestream! If it works, spend money to boost traffic — maybe it'll go viral!"

Wang Dashan was stunned, his face full of shock:

"Didn't I say we're not meddling with them? How come you're meddling again?"

Wang Dashan was very speechless: "Du Xiaojuan, you just have to sing the opposite tune to me, don't you!"

Du Xiaojuan only gave him a cold sentence:

"I'm just talking business. I can give him the opportunity, but whether he can seize it depends on him. I never keep useless trash under me who don't make money."

Wang Dujin, who was eating a chicken leg, chimed in at this moment:

"Mom, aren't you raising Dad?"

"Pfft..." Du Xiaojuan was amused into laughter by Wang Dujin's childish words.

Wang Dashan's face couldn't hold up. As a father, being viewed like this by his own son really hurt his self-esteem.

After laughing, Du Xiaojuan actually spoke up for Wang Dashan:

"Xiao Jin, your dad isn't trash. He's very capable. He's a veteran, once defended the country. And at home he doesn't do nothing — he takes care of you, takes care of this family. He's this family's solid backing. His contribution to the family can't be measured by how much money he earns!"

Wang Dujin heard this, went "oh" in a voice, and nodded seriously.

Hearing Du Xiaojuan's words, Wang Dashan felt more comfortable inside, and couldn't help revealing a proud expression:

"Xiao Jin, your dad, back in the army, was a War God-level existence!"

"What's a War God?"

"Let me put it this way — even stronger than Ultraman!"

"For real? Fake? Mom, is what Dad said true?"

"It's true. He is this family's Ultraman!"

Wang Dujin's gaze toward Wang Dashan became incomparably worshipful.

Wang Dashan laughed smugly.

Du Xiaojuan finished a bowl of rice, then handed the bowl to Wang Dashan:

"Ultraman, go help this human ladle a bowl of soup!"

"Roger!" Wang Dashan didn't feel it was losing face anymore, and hurriedly stood up to go ladle soup for Du Xiaojuan.

Du Xiaojuan sighed.

She thought, day after day, coaxing two kids — one little kid, one big kid — was truly tiring enough.

But if coaxing them makes the days go well, she still knew how to choose.

This is where Du Xiaojuan differs from other strong women.

Other domineering women only know how to belittle their own husbands as utterly worthless, even cursing their husbands as trash in front of their children, instilling in their children the notion that their father is a useless good-for-nothing.

Du Xiaojuan is different; with Wang Dashan, she scolds when scolding is called for, controls when control is called for, absolutely never letting Wang Dashan act recklessly, especially in economic decision-making!

But in front of the children, when it comes to giving Wang Dashan face and dignity, that must be given in full, because she knows children need a father with a positive image to grow up healthy, and the image in the children's hearts is also Wang Dashan's last line of defense for his self-respect.

Time turned in a blink to the next day.

Preparing to set off for travel.

Wang Dashan and Li Xiulan were packing things.

Du Xiaojuan held the child and specially made a phone call to Wang Erhai:

"Erhai, your eldest brother and I plan to go on a self-driving tour for a while, you really don't need your mother to help raise the child? If not needed, then I'll bring her along."

Wang Erhai hurriedly said:

"Eldest Sister-in-law, really no need, you bring my mother along, my mother has suffered a lifetime, it's also time for her to go see the country's magnificent rivers and mountains!"

Du Xiaojuan however said:

"But your mother is still hesitating, why don't you give her a call and talk to her?"

Why did Du Xiaojuan still want Wang Erhai to call Li Xiulan?

It was because she didn't want Wang Erhai to feel that everything seemed to be orchestrated by her, this eldest sister-in-law.

Wang Erhai then said:

"Alright, in a moment I'll call and talk to her!"

Before long, Wang Erhai called Li Xiulan:

"Mother, no need to worry about things here, you just go travel with Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law with peace of mind, a person lives a lifetime, it's very brief, at your age you should also enjoy yourself!"

Li Xiulan's face showed a smile:

"Erhai, isn't it because I'm afraid you need me over there?"

Wang Erhai hurriedly said:

"Not needed for the moment, isn't there Yueran's mother helping? You just go travel with peace of mind, remember to take lots of photos! Right, about spending money, don't you mind it anymore, going out to play the main thing is to play happily, Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law don't lack this bit of money!"

"Alright alright, I know! Then I'll go!"

Morning past ten o'clock, luggage packed.

All moved onto the car.

Li Xiulan carefully inspected the house's doors and windows once, confirmed all were already closed tight, only then got in the car.

Du Xiaojuan had long since opened her mobile phone's shooting function, facing the boarding Li Xiulan said:

"Mother, life's first self-driving tour is about to depart, what are your thoughts on this?"

Li Xiulan's simple face revealed a simple smile:

"No other thoughts, just want to see the country's magnificent mountains and rivers..."

Du Xiaojuan wants to make this self-driving tour into a short video special feature, and the protagonist of this short video special feature is not her, nor Wang Dashan, but Li Xiulan.

A rural woman who hasn't walked out of the mountain gully for most of her life, going to traverse the country's magnificent rivers and mountains in a video, will absolutely attract eyeballs, attract attention, gain traffic!
