Hu Qiang's Decision

Chapter 388

"Cough cough cough cough cough cough cough!"

Seeing Hu Qiang coughing suddenly and violently, Hu Qiang's mother immediately threw away the sweater needle in her hand, and hurried over to help Hu Qiang pat his back.

After coughing twice more, Hu Qiang let out his breath and waved his hands with tears in his eyes: "It's okay, Mom, it's okay."

Hu Qiang's mother then stopped, and asked with concern: "Qiangzi, what's the matter? Are you scared?"

"No, no, no." Hu Qiang shook his head hastily.

Immediately afterwards, Hu Qiang took a few pieces of tissue paper from the coffee table, first wiped his nose with a piece of tissue paper, and then took out a piece of tissue paper to wipe away his tears, and then said: "No, mom, who just ate strawberries At that time, I choked on the strawberry flesh."

Hu Qiang's mother was taken aback, and then she shook her head in a funny way: "You, how old are you, can you still choke on a strawberry? Are you ashamed?"

"Accident, accident, pure accident!" Hu Qiang waved his hands tearfully.

Hu Qiang's mother shook her head, stood up quickly and poured a glass of water, and handed it to Hu Qiang who was still wiping his nose and tears: "Come on, drink some water and press it."

Hu Qiang quickly took the water, drank it all in one gulp, and then let out a long breath: "It's cool! It's much better!"

Seeing that Hu Qiang was fine, Hu Qiang's mother simply got up and brought a bottle of mineral water over, unscrewed the cap and handed it to Hu Qiang: "Come on, drink some more, drink it up, drink more water."

"Okay!" Hu Qiang took the bottle of mineral water, took two more sips in a row, and then put down the waterway, "It's much better, thank you mom."

Hu Qiang's mother smiled and shook her head: "Qiangzi, aren't you? You can choke on a strawberry? Do you want to be so excited? Or, you have already had thoughts about Xiao Su? Let me say it, and it will be broken." Are you worried?"

Hu Qiang smiled wryly: "Mom, this joke can't be messed up, I never thought of it like this."

"Then you can think about it now." Hu Qiang's mother smiled and said.

Hu Qiang sighed: "Mom, I think you are thinking too much.

Yes, I admit, Sister Su is very nice, she works hard and has a kind attitude. She can take care of you, chat with you, and help Xiao Hutao with her homework. .

For a good person like her, it's okay if you have a good impression of others, it's all normal.

But to put it bluntly, she is the nanny I invited, no matter how good she is, and no matter how good her attitude is, that is her job, and that's what she does.

But work and life are two different things.

When working, of course, you have to put away your petty problems and temper, and only show your best side. This is called professionalism, highlighting a specialty.

But it would be different if she became her own daughter-in-law and her own person.

Believe it or not, once she becomes my daughter-in-law and a family, she will not only show you the good side like she is now, and she will have all kinds of petty temper problems that you couldn't see before. There are even all kinds of troubles of her own, all of which have come out, maybe it will make you half dead.

So, don't mess with the mandarin ducks, and don't even try to change her from a nanny to a daughter-in-law, it's just asking for trouble.

In addition, people may not be happy to be your son's wife.

After all, although being a babysitter requires serving people, it is a job after all. This is a biphasic choice.

As a nanny, naturally you have to have a good attitude and work well, but as an employer, you have to treat people well, and you can't lose your temper casually, otherwise, people can quit at any time.

But the daughter-in-law is different. Once she becomes someone else's daughter-in-law, the relationship with her mother-in-law will be complicated, and it will be difficult to leave when she is wronged, and the involvement will become bigger.

Anyway, if I were Sister Su, I would only want to be a nanny, and I wouldn't like to be someone's daughter-in-law and suffer that kind of foreign crime.

Not to mention that Sister Su once... Forget it, don't mention it.

In short, Mom, it’s fine for you to like Sister Su, but if you want to let her be your daughter-in-law, you’d better kill this idea quickly and stop thinking about it.

Also, please don't reveal this idea to Sister Su.

If you really tell her this idea, you might scare her away.

Just kidding, mom, you don't know how difficult it is to find a reliable nanny in Shanghai now.

It was also hard for me to find such a good nanny as Sister Su.

Mom, you can save me some snacks, don't scare people away.

At that time, it may not be possible to find such a good helper as her to help you and Xiao Hutao. "

Mother Hu Tao gave Hu Qiang a blank look, and then handed Hu Qiang a glass of water: "You talk a lot, so stop talking, and drink some water to moisten your throat."

"Oh." Hu Qiang curled his lips, picked up the mineral water bottle obediently, and took a sip of water.

In fact, he is not thirsty now, and he has no discomfort in his throat, and he is using this method to move up to the next level.

Anyway, in his opinion, after he said so much, his mother should be able to dispel that unrealistic idea.

Who knows, Hu Qiang's mother picked up the sweater needle again at this time, and said while knitting the sweater again: "Qiangzi, who do you think your mother is, can I not understand these truths?"

Hu Qiang then looked at his mother: "Mom, since you understand, why do you still tell me that?"

Hu Qiang's mother stopped her hands, looked at Hu Qiang and sighed: "Why do you say this? Isn't it for you and Hu Tao."

"For me and Hu Tao?" Hu Qiang was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

Hu Qiang's mother shook her head, smiled slightly and said, "Qiangzi, I know my illness, it is impossible to cure it.

Although the medicine you gave me is very effective, and it seems to be very effective so far, but who can guarantee that it will always be effective and will not worsen?

In addition, even if this medicine is really good, it only has a two-year supply. That is to say, after two years, without this medicine, my disease may continue to deteriorate and relapse.

You also said that this drug came from a wrong path, so can you guarantee that this drug will be on the market within two years, or can you get enough of this drug again? "

Hu Qiang frowned and said: "Although I can't guarantee these things now, don't worry mom, there must be a way to reach the mountain, as long as I work hard to do the task, no, work hard, there will be a way to cure you when the time comes. "

"Stupid boy." Hu Qiang's mother smiled, "Being gifted with special medicine, being treated as an experimental product, and it happens to be the right symptom, that is something that cannot be met, and it cannot be regarded as the norm, so it is better to be a human being. You need to have a long-term plan, not just the immediate future.”

After a short pause, Hu Qiang's mother continued: "Of course, if you can get this medicine again, and it doesn't cost much, then I am naturally willing to continue to be a guinea pig.

But I have heard of this kind of thing that secretly finds people to do drug experiments without formal approval. Usually, this kind of situation can't last long, so let's not expect to make a lifetime of cheap money and take this kind of special medicine for a lifetime.

Therefore, we have to prepare for the worst, which is to act as if I have only two years to live.

During this period, I will try my best not to cause you any trouble, and I will try my best to help you take care of Xiao Hutao so that you can work with peace of mind and make good progress. It is best to become a bigger leader and earn more money.

But after two years, it's hard to say. "

Hu Qiang frowned: "Mom..."

"Stop talking!" Hu Qiang's mother waved her hand, "Listen to me."

After taking a deep breath, Hu Qiang's mother looked at Hu Qiang and said, "Qiangzi, you are honest and responsible, you don't know how to please women, and you have never had much luck since you were a child. You finally got a wife, and...

Forget it, don't mention her.

In short, when mom is still here, she can help you, but if mom is gone, what can you do?

Don't mention anything else, what about the little walnut?Who do you ask to take care of her?
Little Hutao is different from you. She has been lively since she was a child, but because of her mother's early absence, she has always been a little sensitive and rebellious.

Although Hu Tao never said it, I, as a grandma, knew that she really wanted to have a mother.

And you're not good at being a father, you don't know how to take care of children at all, and you can't even kiss Little Hutao.

That is to say, you are her biological father, and Xiao Hutao is actually a bit precocious and very sensible, otherwise, look, it would be no wonder that she would talk to you after you came back! "

Hu Qiang touched his nose in embarrassment, and was speechless for a while.

Well, if you think about it carefully, neither Hu Qiang, your past predecessor, nor yourself in your previous life, seems to have never raised children seriously.

I won't mention the self in the previous life. Before the time travel, I was single, let alone married and had children.

The previous life in this life was not much better.

According to the inherited memory, the predecessor of this life, after his wife gave birth to a child, still devoted himself to work, working overtime all day long, and the child was taken care of by Hu Qiang's mother and Weiwei.

Even when the child was a little older, Hu Qiang didn't take care of the child much, it was Weiwei and Hu Qiang's mother who took care of it together.

Taking care of a newborn child is a big trouble, and even many mothers suffer from postpartum depression. It is no wonder that Weiwei left because of a word from her predecessor and never came back.

Although there may be other reasons, but no matter what, Hu Qiang, the predecessor, was actually quite incompetent.

Anyway, judging from the current Hu Qiang's perspective, the former Hu Qiang seemed to be working hard, but in fact he made many mistakes.

The work and work are not outstanding, and the family is not harmonious. Although the essence is not bad, it is still difficult to conceal the word failure.

Of course, Hu Qiang in his previous life was not much better, but he has one good thing, that is, he is single, and he doesn't rush around others.

But Hu Qiang, the predecessor here, had actually been under the care of his mother and Wei Wei all the time before, but he didn’t know it himself, and he always took it for granted. It wasn’t until Wei Wei left and all kinds of family troubles came together that he understood. Weiwei's suffering made her understand how wrong she did back then.

However, generally speaking, Hu Qiang, the predecessor, did not do it on purpose, but had to.

The Wanshou who let the predecessor work likes to squeeze the employees.

According to memory, Hu Qiang, the predecessor, was extra careful when he was working, for fear of being fired for doing something wrong.

At that time, Weiwei had just given birth and had no job, so the whole family had to rely on Hu Qiang to support her.

To put it bluntly, didn't the former Hu Qiang think of getting off work and spending more time with his wife and children?
No way, he has to work, make money, and support his family, or else he will have no source of income, and the family will have to drink northwest wind.

So the source of all contradictions is one word - poor!

Because of being poor, I didn't dare to give up my job at will, and I didn't dare to slap the table with the leader casually, so I had to listen to the leader and kept working overtime and overtime.

Also because of poverty, Weiwei had to give up her job when she had a baby, and she couldn't afford a nanny or a confinement wife, so she had to let her mother come over to help take care of the children.

Poor and lowly couples are sad about everything, and they don't speak hard when they have no money.

Jing Xiaoshenwei and Wei Nuo Nuo from the previous life, to put it bluntly, were all pressured by money.

Looking back at the current self, if he didn't have a system, would he be able to live so carefree?
In short, he is really not good at taking care of children, and the relationship with Xiao Hutao is really not very close.

In fact, Hu Qiang also thinks this is very good and doesn't want to change too much.

After all, it was really weird for him to be in contact with Little Walnut all day, and he couldn't bear it himself.

That's why he paid a lot of money to hire a nanny, just to make everyone feel at ease.

In this way, his cheap mother and little Walnut can be taken care of, and he can work and live with peace of mind. Everyone is happy.

But this kind of thinking is just thinking about it in private, and now I am a bit ashamed to be told by my mother in this world.

"Hmph, you still feel ashamed, it proves that there is still salvation!" Hu Qiang's mother curled her lips.

"Hehe." Hu Qiang smiled dryly, "I'm sorry mom, I, I..."

"Okay, don't talk about it." Hu Qiang's mother waved her hand, "I don't blame you, after all, you are an old man, and it is not easy to work and earn money to support your family. Let me just say that, listen Enough."

Hearing this, Hu Qiang scratched his head, not knowing what to say.

Hu Qiang's mother suddenly smiled at this time: "So, Qiangzi, it's fine if you are alone, but now that you have Little Walnut, it can no longer be the same as before.

As for me, I don't know how long I can live. In the worst case, it will be more than two years.

What will you do after two years?In other words, if I'm gone two years later, who will take care of Little Walnut and you?
So, after much deliberation, I think you still need to have a daughter-in-law, and let your daughter-in-law take care of you. "

"Mom, I..."

"To shut up!"

Seeing that Hu Qiang was about to interrupt again, Hu Qiang's mother glared: "I haven't finished talking, don't interrupt!"

After Hu Qiang shut up, Hu Qiang's mother looked out of the glass window, looked at Su Damiao who was still pruning flowers and plants, and said, "Qiangzi, I understand what you said, and so does Xiao Su.

However, at this time and at that time, sometimes, you should not underestimate yourself, let alone think about others casually.

Let's just talk about Xiao Su. It's good for her to be a babysitter, but after all, it's a job of serving people.

In addition, although Xiao Su earns a lot of money as a nanny, considering her age and income, it is even more difficult to buy a house and settle in Shanghai.

If she can find a reliable local man to marry, then she can settle here, which is still very attractive.

Qiangzi, although you are not from the local area at all, you already have a Shanghai household registration, and you still have a house here. This is a serious Shanghainese.

You have a Shanghai hukou, a local house, and a high-tech job. In addition, you have a good personality, are not stingy, generous enough, and the key people are handsome. These are all good conditions.

I have already figured out Xiaosu's situation. She also has a daughter, but she has already gone to college, and she will start working as soon as she graduates from college, which is not a drag.

Coupled with Xiao Su's age, even if she marries you, she probably won't have any more children.

If she doesn't have a child with you, then Little Walnut will naturally be regarded as her own.

And after these days of contact, I can also see that Xiao Su is a really kind person, not pretending.

Not to mention, she and Xiao Hutao get along very well, and Xiao Hutao is willing to listen to her.

If she becomes Xiao Hutao's stepmother from now on, she will definitely not treat Xiao Hutao badly.

Of course, this is all secondary. The most important thing is that I made indirect comments before and found that Xiao Su is actually quite satisfied with you.

So, Qiangzi, I think it's not that Xiao Su doesn't want to start a family again, it's just that she has some concerns, and it's not that she is determined to be single.

The key is you, as long as you are willing to treat others well, you can bring them together on your own terms. I don't think there is any big problem.

Fortunately, thanks to your medicine, I will be fine for at least two years.

Taking advantage of my good spirits and my lack of confusion, I wanted to settle your marriage as soon as possible. I can see with my own eyes that there is a reliable person to take care of you and Xiao Hutao, so I can feel at ease.

At that time, even if there is an emergency and I really have to leave, I can leave with peace of mind. "

Hu Qiang said speechlessly: "Mom, don't worry about it, I really don't mean it.

Besides, it's not appropriate for me to talk to Sister Su. "

"Why is it inappropriate?" Hu Qiang's mother asked.

Hu Qiang blinked: "Nowhere is suitable.

And don't forget, I'm legally married, not really single.

You asked me, a married man, to fall in love with Sister Su. This, isn't this cheating in marriage? "

Hearing what Hu Qiang said, Hu Qiang's mother frowned: "What are you talking about? What kind of cheating in marriage? Although you are still married in name, Weiwei has been gone for more than four years. What is the difference between you and a single? If you Going to get a divorce now will definitely happen immediately.

Speaking of this, I have mentioned it to you several times before, why don't you go for a divorce? "

Hearing what his mother said, Hu Qiang blinked, lowered his head on purpose, rolled his eyes, and said with a look of lament and loneliness: "Mom, don't talk about it, Weiwei just walked away in anger, wait for her to disappear Qi, I will come back sooner or later. So, before Weiwei comes back, I can't get a divorce, it's inappropriate, really inappropriate. "

Seeing Hu Qiang like this, Hu Qiang's mother couldn't help but raise her hand subconsciously, as if she wanted to give her son a big ear.

But in the end, I still felt sorry for him, and instead of beating him down, I put down my hand and said angrily: "Stupid boy, what a silly boy! You're not very capable, why are you as stubborn as your father!"

Speaking of this, seeing that Hu Qiang still bowed his head and remained silent, Hu Qiang's mother sighed and said softly again:
"Qiangzi, I know that you haven't let go of Wei Wei in your heart, and always feel that you owe her, but she has been gone for so many years, and you have waited for her for so many years, it is enough.

Even if it's for mother, for Xiao Hutao, and for this family, just let Weiwei go, don't lie to yourself.

Then, you can try to get in touch with Xiaosu, and have a good talk, maybe your real fate is here.

As a human being, you still have to be realistic and objective, don't cling to the past, it will only harm others and yourself!
Letting go of obsessions is the only way to be liberated.

Qiangzi, don't make mistakes! "
