Chapter 966 Anatomy(1/2)
"Ke Dong, Shuang Ling? Ke Dong, Shuang Ling?"
Suddenly hearing a voice coming from the living room, the father and daughter tacitly terminated the conversation. After looking at each other, the serious expression on Dudong's face softened a lot.
The daughter on the front foot had just come down from Shangcun, and Xiuqin on the back foot hurriedly followed her, which proved that what the younger daughter said before was true.
Xiuqin has a promise to her daughter, and it was Xiuqin's idea to keep her daughter in Shangcun. From this, we can see how much Xiuqin thinks about her daughter, and how much she treasures her daughter. With this thought, the unhappy look on Dudong's face dissipated a lot.
Although Du Dudong is just a businessman operating in three small places: a small town, a county town and Shao City, his economic awareness of nearly 30 years of crawling around in society has made his vision and mind far greater than that of this small place.
Most people, this made him support his daughter's emotional autonomy from the beginning. Even if his wife Ai Qing strongly opposed it, he still supported it as always.
Therefore, Aiwujiwu and Dudukdong's feelings for Zhang Xuan have a very solid foundation.
As a businessman, especially a businessman in this mixed era, at over fifty years old, he understood Zhang Xuan's character thoroughly, which was affectionate, righteous, and independent. This was also the root of his support for his youngest daughter.
Even though Zhang Xuan was a little poor at that time, he regarded him as a piece of rough jade. But now with Zhang Xuan's success, Du Dudong is not surprised at all that he has a woman outside. Because this kind of thing is not common among his friends.
There are not many in the circle, and it is even common.
It is normal for men, especially successful men, to have fun outside. Dudong still has this level of knowledge and openness.
This is true for my own circle of friends, so can you imagine what will happen if Zhang Xuan becomes more successful?
What's more, Zhang Xuan is a literati, and literati have been popular since ancient times. This is the immunity granted to people like them by the times.
The reason why he is so cautious today is because he has met Mi Jian several times and knows that Mi Jian is an extraordinary girl with her excellent image and temperament. If he wants to rob a man, if he really wants to fight with his daughter, even his younger daughter
We have had an absolute advantage over the years, but we may not always have the last laugh.
Why does Du Dudong have such judgment? Because he is also a man. As a man, you cannot escape greed, anger and ignorance.
There is a vicious circle here. The more successful a man is, the more he cannot escape. Greed, anger, and ignorance will always trap a successful man.
But Mi Jian has all the necessary conditions to trap a successful man, so he has to brace himself for it.
This is also true. From the conversation just now, Dudong saw helplessness, sadness and grievance in his daughter. This was a kind of helplessness that he had no way to deal with his love rival.
There are thousands of thoughts, but they are all within easy reach.
When Ruan Xiuqin's voice came from the living room for the third time, Dudong put some water in the pot, closed the lid, and prepared to go out to welcome the guests.
Unexpectedly, before he moved, his little daughter had already gone outside first and was shouting "Mom, you are here" with a smile.
This situation made Dudong stunned for a moment, and his sharp momentum subsided again, and he walked out of the kitchen.
"Xiu Qin, why are you here?" Dudong came out and received the herbal tea handed to him by his daughter.
Ruan Xiuqin is also a good person. She just shouted three times in a row before the future in-laws showed up in a hurry. This was very different from the previous "timely rain", so it was judged that the other party had resentment in his heart.
Ruan Xiuqin drank half a cup of herbal tea in one breath, then put down the cup and took Shuang Ling's hand and said, "Seeing Shuang Ling coming down in a hurry, I was a little worried, so I dropped everything and followed her down."
Then, without waiting for Du Dudong to speak, she continued: "I received a call from Man Zai. He is rushing to Shanghai to attend a mobile phone launch conference and will be back tomorrow."
Two sentences with two meanings:
The meaning of the first sentence is: In my heart, Ruan Xiuqin, two actors are better than anything else.
The meaning of the second sentence is: My son is a bastard. He does do bad things outside, but he knows the severity and will not let down his wife.
Through these two sentences, Ruan Xiuqin extended a core point of view: Shuangling is my daughter-in-law. No matter how big the things outside are, they are not as big as Shuangling.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Dudong, who had a lot to say, was instantly speechless.
He knew that Ruan Xiuqin was a man of his word, and he also knew that Zhang Xuan was a filial son. Since the mother and son had expressed their attitude, he, Dudong, could not hold on to his pigtails and would not let him go.
After all, the younger daughter made it clear that she did not want to leave Zhang Xuan or the Zhang family, so as a father, he had to stop in time after fighting for his daughter's rights.
But now that the bow has been opened and the arrow has been set, Dudong still plans to perform this play to the end. For no other reason than for his daughter, what if his old face is put out?
He changed his previous enthusiasm and said in a nonchalant manner: "Xiuqin, please sit down first. I'm cooking food in the kitchen. I'll let the two actors accompany you for a while, and we'll leave after dinner."
After saying that, Dudong turned around and entered the kitchen.
Hearing "Let's go after dinner" and seeing Du Dudong turning around and abandoning himself as a guest, Ruan Xiuqin still doesn't understand?
But she wasn't angry, she looked away, held the actress's hand with hers and said with a warm smile: "Mom is shameless, I have to say a few nice words to my mother later, I can't let your father kick me out of the house."
Although Du Shuangling was smart, she could not withstand the coquettish words of her elders. She immediately said in embarrassment: "Mom, don't be offended. Dad is always like this when cooking. He is meticulous in fear of spoiling the taste of the food."
Ruan Xiuqin took her hand and said, "Mom knows that Kedong is doing it for your own good. If you don't blame him, blame that bastard for wronging you. But don't worry, from now on, mom will make the decision."
I don't know why, but when Du Shuangling heard this, she almost lost her guard. After a while, she said softly: "Well, thank you, Mom."
Ruan Xiuqin lovingly stretched out her hand to touch the hair of the two actors, and said sincerely: "You child, what can my family be grateful for? Mom fell in love with you when she saw you. Don't say such disrespectful words in the future."
Du Shuangling hummed again.
It took a long time from Du Jingling to call Du Dudong and then from Du Jingdong to sit quietly by the river for the whole afternoon.
No, Du Jingling and Wu Ruiguo rushed back from the market just after Du Dudong made Liucai Yitang.
She was really worried about her sister and wanted to take a look in person. "Jingling, you are back." Ruan Xiuqin greeted.
"Hey, I'm back. Auntie, you are getting younger and younger. You look enviable." Du Jinling and Ruan Xiuqin are not strangers, but very familiar with each other. They are not so particular about what they say and do. When they meet, they start talking in the usual way.
In the middle, Dududong called to his eldest daughter and his wife: "Stop being so angry, wash your hands and eat quickly. The food will be cold later."
Du Jingling responded, washed her hands and prepared to eat.
Dudong, who had ignored Ruan Xiuqin all afternoon, finally spoke to Ruan Xiuqin: "Xiuqin, there are so many people today. I know you can drink. How about some drinks today?"
Ruan Xiuqin did not forget the purpose of today and said with a smile: "Then have some drinks." There were five people at the table, eating vegetables and drinking wine.
With her biological father around, Du Jingling was very well-behaved, only responsible for livening up the atmosphere and not mentioning anything about her sister and Zhang Xuan.
His wife is like this, and Wu Ruiguo is even more so when he sees his son. He is responsible for pouring wine for his father-in-law, responsible for pouring wine for Ruan Xiuqin, and talks about what he has seen and heard abroad.
Du Shuangling was a little unusual today, she seemed very quiet, her eyes kept lingering on her biological father and future mother-in-law, for fear that the two of them would not get along, and every second that passed became more painful.
Seeing his little daughter being so cautious, Dudong's heart almost melted. He was not a hard-hearted person to begin with, but he had to be hard-hearted this time.
Ruan Xiuqin saw the performance of everyone at the table. She knew that she had to break this game by herself. Although she had made her attitude clear before, it was obvious from Kedong's appearance that it was not enough.
However, Ruan Xiuqin knew what was going on, and she liked the two actors from the bottom of her heart, so she took advantage of a few more drinks and found an opportunity to say to Du Kedong during the chat: "Ke Dong, thank you sincerely for giving birth to a good daughter. From now on, I will have you every year."
I am satisfied with my life with my two lovers by my side."
Listen, what kind of person spends the Chinese New Year with her mother-in-law? She was a daughter-in-law back then.
And I still have to spend every year with the two actors. This
The commitment is heavy.
This means that no matter how many women Zhang Xuan has outside, she, Ruan Xiuqin, will put the two actors at the "center" forever.
I almost said: My daughter-in-law, I only recognize the words of Shuangling.
Of course, Ruan Xiuqin cannot say the words "Only recognize double actors" because she knows her son very well and knows his confidante.
Without Mi Jian, Ruan Xiuqin can still work hard to make this "only" promise. The reason why she still works hard is because there is another Wenhui in Shanghai. Thinking about that girl Ruan Xiuqin makes her head hurt. It's not that she is bad, but that
He was so outstanding that she didn't dare to face him.
So far, when facing the two actors, she can show her sincerity; when facing Mi Jian, she can express her love; but when facing Wen Hui, Ruan Xiuqin is a little guilty. Yes, she is guilty.
She had heard Shuangling and Manzai mention it before: Wenhui's family was not simple, and had a better background than Lilith's family.
Lilith was already too much for her to bear, and Wenhui's personal conditions were so excellent that she was immediately intimidated.
When she was alone, she often thought: Shuang Ling's parents were old acquaintances who had known each other for decades, and they could be resolved with "friendship"; Mi Jian's parents, because they liked their son so much, she was willing to let them go.
Show your face.
As for Wenhui's parents, Ruan Xiuqin didn't dare to think about it. She just hoped that this day would not come, otherwise she was really not sure whether they would collapse?
Although she has not met Wen Hui a few times, a woman's intuition tells Ruan Xiuqin that this girl is not an easy person to deal with, and she cannot be compared with Lilith.
The reason for this inference is simple: if Wen Hui was so easy to get along with, then Shuang Ling wouldn't compromise with that girl Mi Jian.
In front of Lao Du's family, Ruan Xiuqin made his final statement, and the room was quiet for a while.
Du Jingling and Wu Ruiguo looked at Du Jingdong subconsciously. They understood very well that this was almost Aunt Xiuqin's final bottom line, and she would not be able to let her cross the line again.
After all, she is Zhang Xuan's mother, not Zhang Xuan himself. It is very rare for a mother-in-law from such a wealthy family to express such a stance.
The reason why it is said to be rare is because the current direct elder of the old Zhang family is Ruan Xiuqin, and Zhang Xuan is a filial son. The weight of her words is obvious to anyone with a discerning eye.
Du Jinling and his wife could think of it, and Du Jingdong naturally thought of it too.
Looking at his little daughter who was full of hope, Dudong picked up a pot of soju and filled it up for Ruan Xiuqin, and said sincerely:
"Xiu Qin, we have known each other for decades, and you know what I am like. I am doing this for the sake of Shuang Ling and Zhang Xuan today. I hope you can understand."
Ruan Xiuqin held a full glass of wine in both hands and said softly: "We are all parents. Of course I can understand. No matter if you are a diva or a young boy, the palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh. I will treat them the same."
At this point, Du Dudong and Ruan Xiuqin looked at each other and drank the wine in their glasses. Then they changed the topic and the atmosphere at the table slowly returned to its usual liveliness, as if today's deadlock did not exist.
However, on the way back, Ruan Xiuqin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know why, but her vest was soaked through at that time. Although she was certain that she would not lose her two actors, she still couldn't help but worry.
Ruan Xiuqin left, and Du Jingling asked her sister: "Aren't you going up tonight?" Du Shuangling was a little confused: "I don't know."
Du Jingling thought for a while and asked: "Are you feeling a little embarrassed? Or are you afraid that you will lose face with your father by being so good?"
Facing her caring sister, Du Shuangling hesitated for a moment and then told the truth: "I have them all."
