"Enough of that, we're an old married couple, and you're still speaking so formally to me?"
Zhao Feiyan gave Liu Kai Xuan a sideways glance and went back to her own tasks.
...
On the other side, Zhao Dajun returned home in a very agitated mood.
"Mom, tell me, what am I supposed to do about this situation?"
"Chen Yue nags me every day about being useless, and we argue constantly!"
"My abilities are limited to what they are, what can I do?"
Jiang Aiying said in a deep voice, "Alright Dajun, just say less!"
"If things have developed to this point, you can only blame yourself for not living up to expectations!"
"If Chen Yue wants to nag you, just let her nag for a bit!"
"She's raising several children by herself, and her mood is understandably irritable every day!"
"As for her talk of divorce, it's all just talk!"
"We're an old married couple, what's there to divorce?"
"However, you can't keep going down this one path. Didn't Feiyan buy you a lot of study materials?"
"When you have time, study those materials diligently!"
"Regardless of whether you can pass the technician exam in the future, at least let Chen Yue see you're making an effort!"
"I..." Zhao Dajun still had a face full of bitterness.
Jiang Aiying, at this moment, also comforted him helplessly.
"Alright Dajun, stop complaining!"
"Regarding this matter, I can stand in the middle and say a fair word for you!"
"Actually, this situation is not entirely your fault. It's really that your brother-in-law is too outstanding!"
"But there are differences between people, and perhaps you'll never reach Liu Kai Xuan's level."
Hearing Jiang Aiying say this, Zhao Dajun couldn't help but feel his eyelids twitch.
Although he was very unconvinced in his heart, he didn't say much more.
Why did Chen Yue call Zhao Dajun a good-for-nothing all day long?
It was a phenomenon caused by a strong sense of disparity. The gap was so large between two housewives.
Zhao Feiyan ate delicacies every day and wore fashionable clothes.
Her children were old enough to go buy soy sauce, but Zhao Feiyan's appearance seemed to be forever 18 years old.
Look at Chen Yue, who had to worry about daily necessities and could only buy clothes from street stalls.
She wasn't old, but she lived like a resentful woman.
Was the Zhao family's living condition poor? Absolutely not!
Zhao Tianhai and Jiang Aiying both had stable retirement income, and they only had one son, Zhao Dajun.
Although the Zhao family's life wasn't as extravagant as Liu Kai Xuan's, it could absolutely crush over 80% of families in this generation.
But Chen Yue insisted on comparing Zhao Dajun with Liu Kai Xuan.
This not only made her half-dead with anger but also tormented Zhao Dajun severely.
Zhao Dajun could only take in half of Jiang Aiying's advice at most.
But even half was basically enough for him.
Liu Kai Xuan was now a senior engineer!
How difficult it was to become a senior engineer, you could refer to Liu Kai Xuan's master, Liu Dakui, for that matter.
Liu Dakui was currently only a senior technician, and even he was overjoyed to the point of forgetting his family.
What merit did Zhao Dajun have?
It was not that easy to catch up with Liu Kai Xuan.
He simply put on a thick skin and pretended to be diligently studying, at least to reduce Chen Yue's annoyance a little.
...
"Yi Zhonghai, you old dog, give me back my two sisters!"
"Our Jia family doesn't need your hypocritical benevolence here!"
Deep in the night, Liu Kai Xuan was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly awakened by a frantic roar from outside.
It was Bang Geng!
"How did this kid Bang Geng get out of prison? Wasn't he sentenced to five years?"
Liu Kai Xuan muttered to himself and jumped out of bed in one go.
With such a commotion outside, there was no way he could sleep. He might as well come out to watch the show.
It was known that the hatred between Bang Geng and Yi Zhonghai was as deep as the sea, a hatred that was like a father's murder!
When Bang Geng was imprisoned, he was still young and no match for Yi Zhonghai.
Now, nearly four years had passed, and Bang Geng was definitely not the same child he was back then.
At this time, a clash between Bang Geng and Yi Zhonghai would inevitably be a fierce battle.
"Daddy, hug me..."
As Liu Kai Xuan got up to leave, Little Xue'er toddled up behind him.
Of the two little ones at home, Little Tiger liked to chase after his mother, while Little Xue'er had always liked to follow her father since she was young.
It had basically become a habit that couldn't be shaken off.
"Alright, how could I forget my Little Xue'er? Come with me!"
"Daddy, Daddy, I want to go too!" Little Tiger also jumped off his small bed with a whoosh.
Liu Kai Xuan replied, "If you want to go, go find your good mother!"
Little Tiger replied anxiously, "Mom said she doesn't want to watch the excitement anymore, she's tired and wants to sleep!"
"Fine, then I'll take you two with me!"
When Liu Kai Xuan came out with the two children, the conflict between Yi Zhonghai and Bang Geng outside had already reached a fever pitch.
Bang Geng roared furiously, "Yi Zhonghai, are you tired of living?"
"Even if our Jia family starves to death, we won't eat a single grain of your food! I'm taking my two sisters away now!"
Yi Zhonghai's face was somber as he replied, "Bang Geng, you see now!"
"It's not that I'm stopping Xiao Dang and Xiao Huai Hua from leaving with you, it's that they are unwilling to go with you!"
"Hurry up and come with me, you two shameless girls!"
Bang Geng, in a fit of rage, was about to step forward and forcibly drag the two sisters away.
At this moment, Xiao Huai Hua suddenly shouted, "Bang Geng, you murderous ex-convict, don't touch me!"
"Stay away from me, or I'll call the police!"
Xiao Dang chimed in, "That's right, we don't have a brother like you, an ex-convict. Bang Geng, hurry up and leave, we don't want to see you again!"
"Shameless rotten girls, I'll beat you to death..."
"Stop!"
Bang Geng stepped forward to forcibly take Xiao Dang and Xiao Huai Hua away, but at a critical moment, he was stopped by Wang Dapeng.
Wang Dapeng stepped forward and said, "Bang Geng, this is a society ruled by law. If these two girls are unwilling to go with you, you cannot forcibly take them!"
Bang Geng glared fiercely at Wang Dapeng and hissed, "Wang Dapeng, are you tired of living? How dare you meddle in our Jia family's affairs?"
"Get out of my way, or I'll kill you!"
Wang Dapeng calmly replied, "Bang Geng, you've just come out of prison!"
"No one knows better than you what it's like in there!"
