Zhutian: Since I was a child, I have been happy to be a father

Sunday, November 3, morning.

Small study.

Under Yang Xun's gaze, Chen Tao first fed his daughter the eggs before preparing to talk to him.

"Xiao Yin, Dad and Uncle Yang have something to discuss. Please go to the living room and watch TV with grandma for a while."

The little girl hummed, looked at Yang Xun curiously, and then left the study happily.

Yang Xun smiled and said, "Brother Xiaohui, I heard from Daxun that Xiaoyin likes to sing, so I asked someone to buy her an Aiwa Walkman. I don't know much about it, but it should be OK. If Xiaoyin doesn't like it, I'll change it for her."

Chen Tao shook his head slightly: "Xiao Yin is not even four years old yet, so she doesn't need this. But your funds should be very tight right now, so you shouldn't spend money like this. And we shouldn't play tricks on each other. If you have any difficulties, just tell me. If I can help, I will definitely help you; if I can't, please understand and forgive me."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xun's smile became somewhat awkward.

When he went to see Director Gao and asked him to approve the land, he used the name of Brother Xiaohui in front of him, but did not tell him.

Later, he went to Guorong Company to find Xiao Ran to buy land without telling Brother Xiaohui.

Now he wanted to cancel the land that he had already signed the contract with Director Gao, and finally had to come to Brother Xiaohui to plead for him.

It's lucky that he met Brother Xiaohui, otherwise it would be strange if someone who is not so sentimental would treat him well!

"Brother Xiaohui, I understand you. I know very well that you are not that kind of person. It's just that this time, it was indeed my mistake. I was too impulsive and brought you a lot of trouble."

Even though he was wearing glasses, Yang Xun could still feel the oppression in Brother Xiaohui's gaze, and he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

"Da Xun told me that you want to return the land, right? This is not a difficult matter. Once you complete the formalities, Director Gao will definitely not make it difficult for you."

Chen Tao actually had dinner with Director Gao twice. Although Donghai Chemical Factory was a subordinate enterprise, it also had to deal with local relevant departments.

Especially in terms of land use, we need to coordinate well with local authorities.

"that would be great!"

Yang Xun first breathed a sigh of relief, then he said with gritted teeth: "Brother Xiaohui, this is what I think. Can you please have a meal with Director Gao and explain it to him?"

Chen Tao smiled and refused: "There's no need to go through so much trouble. I'll say hello to him when I meet him next time."

Yang Xun nodded gratefully, and then tentatively said, "All these years, thanks to Brother Daxun's help, when the wholesale market in Donghai is built, I will give Brother Daxun a 10% share as a reward."

To Daxun? Give it to me!

Once I get these shares, I will naturally help you convince Lei Dongbao to agree to let you sell the Jinzhou market.

The reason why he had to agree was because of the times, Yang Xun's market had to be affiliated with Xiao Lei's family's collective enterprise.

After all, the Company Law has not been issued yet!

Chen Tao's voice turned calm and he said, "How to reward Daxun is up to you. If you make a decision in the future that involves me, it's best to let me know first so that I can be prepared."

Yang Xun understood that Brother Xiaohui was angry, so he stopped talking and played the emotional card:
"Brother Xiaohui, I am really too anxious this time! Over the years, I have made some money from the market, and our family is much better off than before, but you also know that I have three younger brothers and sisters, and they still have to go to college! And my mother, I always feel that her health is getting worse, so I really can't stop for a moment. This time I buy land, not only do I have to sell the market, but I also have to take out all my savings over the years, and I may have to go back and ask my mother to borrow some more, which is really not easy. Maybe you don't understand why I came to Donghai when I was doing well in Jinzhou? In fact, it's because a group of similar markets have appeared in Jinzhou in recent years, and it's hard to make money."

After hearing this, Chen Tao did not express anything else, but just gave a few words of advice without any expectation:
"Making money is important, but you can never make enough money. Your mother is more important. You say that your life is not easy, but what about your mother? Is it easy for her?"

When Yang Xun heard this, he thought the matter was over and continued to play the victim:
"Yes, yes, you are teaching me a lesson. My mother has it even harder. She eats coarse grains and refuses to go to the hospital even when she has stomachaches. No matter how my brother, sister and I persuade her, it is useless. I am so heartbroken. When you have time, I have to ask Brother Xiaohui to make a phone call and help us persuade her. My mother is always willing to listen to what you say."

Chen Tao pretended to stand up: "Okay, I'll go fight now!"

Yang Xun laughed dryly and said, "Wait, my house doesn't have a telephone yet. If you want to make a phone call, you can only go to the village office. I usually call my mother every Friday and let you know when the time comes."

'Your mother... you bastard, behave yourself!'

Chen Tao cursed in his heart, thinking that it would be better for Director Yang to pass away earlier. Otherwise, with this filial son around, he would suffer even if he lived one more day, and there would be no good life at all.

Because the guy said it himself, he can't stop.

Even if he had 10 million, he would not pay back the hundreds of thousands that his mother had borrowed, nor would he let his mother be debt-free, escape from the days of fear, and eat fine food with peace of mind to nourish her stomach.

This kind of person doesn't deserve to have a mother.

Chen Tao thought about it and thought that Director Yang might not be in the late stage yet. If he asked her to find out at this time...

forget it!
She didn't even listen to her daughter and gave all the money her daughter had saved to Yang Xun. It would be strange if she could go to the hospital!

Even if Chen Tao personally took her to the hospital for examination and confirmed the diagnosis, she would definitely ask Chen Tao to keep it a secret.

Then he would drink the pesticide himself, and it would never be like in the original plot, where Yang Xun would spend money and do everything he could to feel at ease.

The reason is very simple. Yang Xun doesn’t have that much money now and it is difficult to run his business.

Director Yang won't make things difficult for him.

Ugh!
In the next half hour, seeing that Chen Tao had no intention of caring about Lei Dongbao, Yang Xun took the initiative to find an excuse to start a conversation and expressed his own selfish motives.

He just wanted to ask Chen Tao for help and persuade Lei Dongbao to let him come to Donghai.

Chen Tao disagreed, saying that his involvement would only backfire, and asked him to go talk to Lei Dongbao first.

If you really can't handle it, find another way.

Although Yang Xun was somewhat dissatisfied, he did not insist. After all, he knew that the relationship between the two elder brothers was indeed somewhat delicate.

After that, Chen Tao saw him out the door.

I also did not forget to ask him to take the Walkman back and return it.

After the beginning of winter, the weather gets colder.

At around ten o'clock in the morning, Yang Xun found the factory and reported to Chen Tao about some of the circumstances surrounding the land withdrawal.

Director Gao didn't make things difficult for him.

The young man, Xiao Ran, did not make things difficult for him and was very easy to talk to, saying that he could pay in installments.

As for Lei Dongbao, he hasn't said anything yet and he has to go back for a face-to-face interview.

Chen Tao was not interested in these things and did not express any opinion after listening, but he still asked about his mother's situation.

He said everything was fine and he would go back to visit her when he had time in a few days.

Chen Tao asked him again if he would ask his mother to borrow money after he returned home.

He replied that he was in a difficult situation and really needed his mother's help, but he would pay back the borrowed money on time with interest anyway, so it wasn't a big problem.

Chen Tao didn't want to talk anymore and said he had work to do, so he asked him to go back first.

evening.

If you ignore the cold wind, the sea under the moonlight will make you feel relaxed and happy at first sight.

Pier, duty room.

At the end of November, the factory will organize an inspection trip to Japan.

Engineer Feng invited Chen Tao to help her look at the inspection plan.

After all, it is a team action, and the place she is inspecting is the port, which may conflict in time with the chemical plant inspection plan formulated by Chen Tao, so it naturally needs to be planned in advance.

There is nothing to say.

The only problem is that Cheng Kaiyan did not come to bring food to her husband as in the original plot, so she thought that the unmarried Feng Gong was a mistress, and then she did not allow her husband to inspect with Feng Gong, and made trouble, which damaged Feng Gong's reputation and made him resign in anger. Why didn't she come?

Because Chen Tao clearly didn't want to eat the food she cooked.

What was she doing here? Catching someone having an affair?

I already caught him last night, I can’t do it again tonight!

That's right.

Engineer Feng is good-looking and in his early thirties, so there are indeed some rumors about him in the factory.

Cheng Kaiyan lives in the family quarters. After hearing the news, she naturally became suspicious and took action.

Unfortunately, I always come back empty-handed.

Because Chen Tao and Mr. Feng didn't communicate much at night, and she didn't come to deliver meals often, how could it be such a coincidence that she saw them?

You can't catch someone cheating every day!

For example, tonight, she is going to complain to her parents in Golden State that her husband is becoming increasingly distant from her.

In addition to sharing the same hatred for the enemy, Lao Deng would also tell her about Cheng Qianli's situation and ask her to pay more attention to her brother.

Cheng Qianli’s goods still haven’t been fully converted into cash, especially the cement, which is now expired. Who can buy it?
And there are indeed many people who want those special steels.

But Cheng Qianli had a huge appetite and considered any small profit as a loss. He also took into account the loss of raw materials such as cement, in addition to the considerable storage costs.

So you can imagine the price.

Who will be the scapegoat?

No one is buying into Lao Deng’s business, so how can he sell his cold products?
I can only hold it in my hands and find another way.

To be more specific, it means letting someone figure it out.

At 8:15 in the evening, Chen Tao arrived home.

Cheng Kaiyan hasn't gone to bed yet and is watching TV in the bedroom.

After Chen Tao washed up, returned to the study and continued writing, she finally couldn't help it, put on a coat, and went to talk to her husband.

"Xiaohui!"

Cheng Kaiyan looked resentful: "Do you hate me so much? You come home so early and don't even talk to me? Calculate it yourself, we only say a few words a week now, are we still husband and wife like this?"

Chen Tao put down his teacup and sighed:
"Alas, I have been busy with work and have indeed neglected you. I happen to be free today, so if you have anything to say, please tell me. I am all ears."

Cheng Kaiyan took a stool, sat down next to him, and asked:

"I heard that you are close to Engineer Feng who is in charge of the dock? She is not married yet and is quite pretty."

Chen Tao said unhappily, "Heard? Who told you that? You believe everything others say, but you don't believe me. Why are you asking me?"

Cheng Kaiyan said angrily: "I just asked this question, why are you angry? Aren't you feeling guilty?"

"Is this because you feel guilty? This is because you are angry after being slandered by the person next to you! Go back, I still have to finish my manuscript, I don't have time to waste on you."

"Bedside by your side? I only sleep with you once or twice a month. How can I be called your bedside by your side? You don't love me anymore! You are so busy with your work, but you would rather spend so much time and effort telling so many stories to your daughter than spend more time with me!"

"Then you should reflect on why I prefer to accompany Xiao Yin! Because she only has her father in her heart and eyes, and doesn't have the uncles, aunts, grandparents who call her father an ungrateful wolf. She won't ask her father to do things that are impossible and cannot be done..."

"Woo woo~ You can do it, but you just don't like our family, don't love me, and don't want to help."

"Haha, loving you means unconditionally agreeing to all reasonable or unreasonable requests from your family? I can't afford that. I'm not a live-in son-in-law, and I have no obligation to give everything for your Cheng family. Your family will still have to rely on your two useless brothers and sisters-in-law in the future, and it has nothing to do with me."

"You are so heartless..."

"Why don't you continue? You are so heartless. I really regret marrying you. Is that right? My dad has had a heart attack because of your daughter. If you don't help, you'd be an ungrateful person. Is that right?"

"..."

"Why don't you say anything? Isn't that what you think? You are wrong. Taking care of children won't make you feel sick, but if you think too much, you will feel sick."

"I cannot accept your opinion of my family."

"I stand by my opinion because it is the truth."

Cheng Kaiyan was so angry that she was shaking: "Then let's get a divorce!"

Chen Tao said coldly: "Okay. If you still want a divorce tomorrow morning, I'll take a leave and accompany you to go through the formalities."

Cheng Kaiyan covered her face and cried: "Can't you comfort me for once? How long has it been since you called me kitten?"

Why does she want a divorce when her husband hasn’t cheated on her? Divorce is just a means, not an end.

"If I just want to coax you verbally, then I can try. But if coaxing you means violating principles and laws and gaining benefits for your brother, then I absolutely cannot do that."

"unreasonable!"

"I think this kind of conversation is meaningless. I won't talk to you about similar topics again."

"..."

Cheng Kaiyan returned to the bedroom angrily.

Two and a half hours later, Chen Tao finished writing the situation analysis for Liang Sisen and returned to his bedroom to rest.

Cheng Kaiyan hadn't slept yet. After he lay down, she deliberately turned her back to him to express her dissatisfaction.

Chen Tao patted her, and she twisted and turned like a loach.

To be honest, it would be cute if a young girl did this, but it would be funny if a middle-aged woman in her thirties did this.

Chen Tao took out another quilt and slept alone at the end of the bed.

Cheng Kaiyan became even more annoyed.

After waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour, she couldn't bear it any longer and put one foot into her husband's quilt and pinched his arm with her toes.

Chen Tao lifted her quilt and slapped her face several times, which made her calm down and go to sleep.

Song Yunhui spoiled her too much.

Chen Tao won't be polite.

Of course, we must also be careful about the degree and just teach them a lesson, not treat it as a hobby.

Otherwise, if she develops some weird hobbies and refuses to divorce, it will be very troublesome.

The next morning, it was cloudy.

Cheng Kaiyan was in a bad mood. Although she was not sick, she didn't want to go to work and just watched TV at home.

Chen Tao was too lazy to care about her. He didn't even make breakfast and went straight to the factory cafeteria.
