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

Chen Tao happened to be free, so he took his daughter to Jinzhou in person.

Song Jishan and his wife did not go with them. They wanted to stay at home to take care of Liang Sisen.

Lao Deng had been a factory director after all. Even though he did not do well and even the ordinary grassroots workers did not trust him, the factory had to express its opinion no matter what after his death.

But there were only condolences and no memorial service was held for him.

After Chen Tao and his daughter arrived in Jinzhou, they first booked a hotel, made a funeral couplet, and then went to the Cheng family.

He would not wear mourning clothes, preside over the funeral for the Cheng family, and he would not even prepare to eat at the dinner table tonight.

It is enough to send the elegiac couplets and white envelopes, bow to the deceased for his sake, and offer a few hypocritical words of comfort.

Even the fact that he could spare some time to come here was considered quite a gesture. After all, he was no longer the son-in-law of the Cheng family or half of Lao Deng's son.

At 4:30 on Sunday afternoon, Chen Tao, holding his daughter, walked into the cold and solemn atmosphere of the Cheng family.

Cheng's mother had a problem with him and was not happy with him at all.

Cheng Kaiyan was okay, even a little enthusiastic. It was as if she had not lied to Lao Deng and had improved her relationship with her ungrateful ex-husband; it was as if Lao Deng was not mad at her but because he forgot to bring his heart medicine when he went out.

As for the relatives of the Cheng family, of course they would not have any opinion on Chen Tao, and they would not hesitate to curry favor with him!
quarter past five.

Chen Tao said he was tired and went back to the hotel with his daughter.

Cheng Kaiyan breathed a sigh of relief.

Mother Cheng complained, "Nannan, you are so blind that you actually fell in love with such an ungrateful person."

Cheng Kaiyan retorted: "I am indeed blind, but what about you? Don't you like him? How can I marry him if you don't agree?"

Before, Cheng Kaiyan would never say such things to her mother.

But now, even Lao Deng was pissed off by her. Is it possible that her mentality wouldn't change?

Mother Cheng was choked. In the beginning, Lao Deng had clearly told her why he wanted to find the other party and how to capture him for the sake of this son-in-law.

Didn't she know that the meals she cooked were sent to the other party by Cheng Kaiyan under Lao Deng's order? And they had been sent for a whole year!
Cheng Kaiyan struck while the iron was hot: "If I get involved with him, my family will be in trouble. I won't look for him anymore."

If Lao Deng were still alive, he would definitely not believe such nonsense.

But Cheng's mother was very superstitious. She believed it immediately and agreed:

"I think so too. Don't go to him too much in the future. Don't rush to help before something bad happens at home again."

Cheng Kaiyan felt relaxed.

Finally, she no longer has to be forced to spend the weekends in Donghai and can sleep in or play mahjong comfortably.

As for her brother and sister-in-law’s son, she didn’t even take care of her own daughter before, so how could she help her brother and sister-in-law take care of their son?
Anyway, her mother is in good health and should be able to raise her grandson. There is really no need for her, as his aunt, to worry about her.

Chen Tao's side.

The little girl was very sensible and didn't think her father was too cold. After all, if Gao Xiangrong hadn't blocked the bomb, her father would have been beaten into the hospital by her uncle.

She doesn't want such an uncle.

As for grandpa, he is also a bad person. He is the one who ordered her uncle around. She hates him too!
Although she is still young, she knows how to take care of her own affairs.

She hugged her father and suddenly asked:
"Dad, when Mama Liang's baby is born, will you still like me?"

Chen Tao did not answer but asked: "You actually think that Dad will not like you anymore because he has another child? In your eyes, is Dad this kind of person? Tell me the truth, what kind of nonsense TV series have you watched?"

After saying that, he reached out and pinched the girl's cute little face as a slight punishment.

The little girl dodged quickly: "I won't watch it anymore!"

Chen Tao smiled and said, "Go back and write an English composition with "My Dad" as the main content, emphasizing your respect and love for your father."

The little girl bargained: "English composition is difficult, write it in Chinese!"

Chen Tao disagreed: "It doesn't matter if you can't write. You can ask Liang's mother, she will help you."

The little girl hugged him again and said coquettishly:
"Can I ask you for help? I want you to teach me and let my dad care about me!"

In the book, this girl didn't do well in a test once, and because Song Yunhui was too busy to care about her, she didn't want to study.

Chen Tao agreed immediately, but also put forward a condition:
"I can teach you, but after driving for so long, Daddy's waist and shoulders are sore. Girl, shouldn't you help me?"

The little girl agreed immediately, and asked her father to turn over, banging his fists and pinching his hands, which looked quite real.

The reason why she understood this was naturally because she had been influenced by it. She often saw Liang's mother giving her father massages.

Her belly is so big, but her dad still asks her to massage her. That's so mean.

Liang Sisen's due date is in late December.

Her parents wanted her to go to Shanghai to give birth, but she was not happy about it. She had her husband with her in Donghai, so she didn't want to go anywhere.

Chen Tao does have time to accompany her.

The candidate has been confirmed and the process is going on. It is estimated that he will be able to resign before the Spring Festival and report to the Department of Chemistry of Donghai Normal University.

After the Spring Festival, Tunghai Normal University and Tunghai University officially merged.

At that time, his main identity will be a professor in the Department of Chemistry at Tunghai University and a specially appointed expert at the Tunghai Chemical Plant Research Institute, focusing on education and scientific research.

***
December 24th, 9pm.

Inside the People's Hospital Affiliated to Tunghai University.

Liang Sisen successfully gave birth to a seven-pound son, whose nickname was "Coco", just like in the book.

As for the full name, Chen Tao's unconventional father wanted to call him "Si Ming", but after thinking about it, he changed it to "Si Yu".

Liang Sisen liked it very much, but she was puzzled about her newborn son:

"Hubby, why does Coco look like a red-skinned mouse? Our son can't be so ugly!"

Grandpa Liang couldn't help laughing: "How would you know? Newborn babies, including you, are all like this!"

He then praised: "Keke, this child is well-born, he is from our Wang family."

It should be from the Song family, right?
Song Jishan and his wife secretly complained.

They still have a "we are marrying above our station" mentality towards the Liang family, and feel that it is a blessing for their son to have Liang Sisen marry into their family.

It should belong to the Liang family, right?
Liang Daolin was also complaining in his heart.

Liang's mother didn't have this thought, all her attention was on her grandson. Chen Tao sat on the bed, peeled an apple skillfully, and handed it to Xiao Yin.

The girl also thought that her half-brother was too ugly and very different from what she had imagined him to look like.

end of the month.

Lei Dongbao came to Donghai to visit his little nephew.

Wei Chunhong also came over.

The two seemed to be doing fine on the surface, but in fact they were in a cold war.

But there is still room for recovery.

Feng Xinxin is really stupid. Even if the conflict had not escalated because she was seen by his cousin while riding a tricycle with Liang Sisen, it would still be difficult to trust her because of some of her usual behavior.

She always talks about her mother's family and doesn't care about the man at all. At the same time, she is brainless and relies on the baby in her belly to make trouble.

What kind of personality does Lei Dongbao have? He is particularly strong and overbearing. How can he tolerate others not listening to him? He just bears it for the sake of his children.

In general, not only did she not become a substitute for Song Yunping, but she established an image similar to Cheng Kaiyan.

Song Yunhui could tolerate it for the sake of the family. But Lei Dongbao couldn't, at least he really couldn't do it, so he simply divorced Wei Chunhong for this mistress, and he would not hand over his money to her.

This says it all.

Of course, Wei Chunhong is also a resourceful woman, and her efforts to win back Lei Dongbao cannot be ignored.

study.

Lei Dongbao put down his teacup and asked in confusion:
"Xiaohui, I don't understand. You are doing a good job as the factory director. Why do you want to resign? You are only 36 years old this year, right? If you work hard, you will definitely be able to become a department manager in the future."

The Song Yunhui in the book is actually younger than in the drama.

In the book, Liang Sishen won her Mr. Song in 1994, and was pregnant with her teacher's child before Lei Dongbao met Feng Xinxin. It was not like in the drama where they had to wait until 1997.

Chen Tao said seriously: "Brother, do you think that everything I do is just for the sake of being an official? I don't really like being a factory director, but for the sake of my ideal, I have to do it reluctantly. Now that my ideal has been realized and Donghai is thriving, I will naturally do the scientific research I like. People are the most important. As long as I can cultivate a group of outstanding talents, my career and ideals will not fade, but will become brighter."

After hearing this, Lei Dongbao couldn't help but complain:

"Your accent is becoming more and more like Old Xu's! It's okay if he says so, but you must not imitate him. I really can't stand it."

Chen Tao said with a smile: "To put it nicely, you are being discerning, but to put it bluntly, you are being snobbish! Old Xu is a high-ranking official, so you can accept what he says, but I am a low-ranking official, and you find it annoying when I say something? This is unacceptable!"

Lei Dongbao was huge, shaking his head and saying:
"Xiaohui, you know I'm not that kind of person. Besides, your current position is not high enough. How many deputy ministers in their thirties are there in the whole country?"

I'm afraid you're out of your mind. If your sister were still alive, she would definitely not agree with you becoming a professor.

Lei Dongbao did not say the following paragraph.

Chen Tao drank some juice and sighed:
"You should also be able to notice that I am different from before. Before, I would point out some things to you even if I knew you would be unhappy to hear them. But now, I just want to remind you of two points."

Lei Dongbao immediately raised his hand and said as if swearing:
"You tell me, I will definitely listen and I won't be unhappy."

Chen Tao whispered, "First, you must keep all the money in your own hands. Don't give it to other women or Wei Chunhong. Don't take risks and don't test human nature."

Life is long.

Just because someone is reliable today doesn’t mean he or she will be reliable tomorrow.

Chen Tao really didn't think that Lei Dongbao needed to give the money to Wei Chunhong. Would he feel it was too hot to hold it in his hand?
"Second, you have to leave yourself a way out, that is, think about danger, retreat, and change. I also heard that Xiao Lei's family is developing quite well. You should be able to get a lot of dividends this year, right? But I tell you, the economy is cyclical. If you blindly expand the scale and increase leverage, once the situation changes, there will be various risks such as a broken capital chain. At this time, I hope you don't put your own wealth on it, because you don't have many shares, and the money you earn is simply a drop in the bucket. Maybe you think that I look down on you, but in fact I just don't think highly of Xiao Lei's family. None of them are not selfish and only think about themselves, not the collective. This has already denied your collective enterprise at the root."

"Finally, I'm not saying this to teach you a lesson. Of course, I don't want to say this either. This is for your own good. I'm only doing this for Xiaoyin, my parents, and Sishen and her son. You can totally ignore what I said."

Chen Tao's last words made Lei Dongbao's expression more relaxed. He laughed a few times and invited enthusiastically:

"Xiaohui, you still don't understand the actual situation. It just so happens that our copper factory is also in need of experts now. You can come and take a look when you are free!"

His attitude is normal. Xiao Lei's Thunder Cable has just entered the stage of rapid development and is thriving. It has a bright future. Who could have thought that an economic crisis would soon come?
Chen Tao waved his hand: "I will come to see you when I am free. Let's not talk about this today. Let's talk about something else! How is your mother doing recently?"

He has said everything he needs to say, and he will no longer care what happens to Lei Dongbao in the future.

On January 96, 1, the 19th day of the eleventh lunar month, the Donghai Factory held a grand farewell party for Chen Tao.

Three days later, Tuesday, the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month.

Chen Tao reported to Donghai Normal University and started classes in the next semester. Before that, he could relax, at least he didn't have to go to Donghai Research Institute every day.

After Yang Xun knew about this, he couldn't understand it.

But he knew that he could no longer count on Professor Song.

A month later.

The second day of the Lunar New Year, early morning.

When Liang Sisen woke up, she first fed her son, then acted coquettishly and asked her husband to change her clothes.

After putting on her clothes, she slowly went to wash up, not caring at all about her mother's expectations.

Today is the day to go back to my mother's house.

That afternoon, Chen Tao and his family of four arrived at Jinyunli in the Magic City.

This old villa is certainly not the home of Liang Daolin and his wife.

But they both had to go back to her mother's home, so they just gathered at Grandpa Liang's place.

As for the other members of the Liang family, although Liang Fan also called him grandpa, his mother was not Grandpa Liang's daughter, so she naturally would not come today.

After the lively and sumptuous dinner, Grandpa Liang suggested playing chess. Liang Daolin claimed that he had reached the amateur level, so he wanted to compete with his son-in-law and make this guy put away his confident face, so he agreed immediately.

However, Chen Tao was good at everything, including music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He immediately beat his father-in-law, Lao Taishan.

Liang Sisen didn't quite understand, but she knew how to save her father's face:
"Hubby~ My dad is old, and you are in your prime. This is not fair. Can you give him two cents in the next game?"

Chen Tao readily agreed.

Liang Daolin was unsure, but when his son-in-law offered him two cents, he didn't dare to accept the challenge. He thought, don't be a father anymore, just be his grandson!
Liang Sishen said again: “Grandpa, you help my dad too!”

Grandpa Liang quickly refused, "A true gentleman watches chess without saying a word. I can't help you."

He is afraid that he will lose even if he helps.

That night.

In order to give her father a chance to win in the future, Liang Sisen can only try her best to persuade her husband. (End of this chapter)
