After severing ties, the biological parents regretted it

Chapter 168

After dinner, Liu Qing took Chen Shuhui to the morning market to buy vegetables.

This is one of her few hobbies.

Cooking has become a habit. Their family still cooks by themselves and has not hired any nanny.

Except for cleaning, which Chen Shaohua hired a housekeeping company to clean every three days, all other housework was done by Liu Qing.

After seeing the mother and daughter leave, Chen Shaohua got up and made himself a cup of tea.

"Why do you suddenly want to go abroad?" he asked.

Chen Pingan shook his head, "I didn't suddenly want to go abroad, I just thought of this possible option and said it casually.

In fact, I didn't think about studying abroad..."

Chen Shaohua nodded to indicate that it was okay, "It's not impossible to go abroad, but your mother's words make sense, so I didn't say anything.

The Chen family is not a real wealthy family, do you know why I said that?"

Chen Pingan shook his head.

He thought that in Beijing, as far as wealthy families are concerned, the Chen family is second only to the Huo family, and should be a place that many people respect.

But when he heard Chen Shaohua say this, he was also confused.

Chen Shaohua sighed and continued, "A true aristocratic family is one that has been passed down for thousands of years, such as the Cui family or the Wang family mentioned in history books.

In the past 100 years, none of the aristocratic families in the country that can be called aristocratic families have been passed down for more than 200 years.

Even the Huo family, the largest family in Beijing, has only been around for more than 140 years.

The Chen family...is not worth mentioning."

Chen Pingan looked at his adoptive father without saying a word. He knew that when it comes to this kind of conversation, he just needs to listen.

Chen Shaohua continued, "The Chen family is only the fifth generation to my generation.

In terms of wealth accumulation, it cannot compare with the Huo family, or even the Ma family in the northeast, or the Yang family or Chen family in Tianjiang.

From the perspective of the relationship between the family tree, the Chen family is even inferior in comparison.

The key lies in the relationship between the main family and the side branches.

In this regard, the Huo family is better than us.

In addition to their family's background in politics and the military, the Chen family is indeed a little worse than them.

What's worse is that the next generation of the head of the family has not found a suitable candidate yet.

I once discussed with your third uncle and your grandfather that we wanted to train Chen Xiaolong to be the head of the family in the future, and you were one of the candidates.

But the last time you two met, the process should not be interesting, right?"

He tilted his head to look at Chen Pingan, sizing up his expression.

Chen Pingan narrowed his eyes slightly, and the guy who looked indifferent to him but liked Huihui suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Is he in Europe?" He raised his voice slightly.

Chen Shaohua nodded.

"I don't know much about him, only the information before he went abroad.

After he went out, there was not much information about him at home.

In addition, he has a younger sister, Chen Yangyang, who is 15 years old this year, a little younger than Huihui, but a genius, and is also in Europe.

You need to ask your third aunt for the details."

Chen Shaohua took out a cigarette and gestured to him, and Chen Pingan quickly shook his head to indicate that he didn't want it.

After lighting a cigarette, Chen Shaohua pointed to the balcony, and the two walked out and stood on the balcony together.

"Before Huihui, we had a son..." Chen Shaohua's voice was a little hoarse, "but he died less than a week after he was born.

We adopted you because Liu Qing couldn't bear the shock at that time and had some mental problems."

He pointed to the head, "After I brought you back, Liu Qing almost immediately treated you as our first son.

She protected you very well.

Everything outside, she thought would hurt you, and even I couldn't get close to you and your son for two years.

Ping An... Do you know what kind of feeling that is?"

Chen Ping An was shocked.

He didn't know what to say.

He had no memory of this at all.

Chen Shaohua continued, "After she slowly recovered, we had Huihui.

You two are everything in her life.

When have I ever lost my temper with you two?

When have I ever hit you?

I haven't even touched you, let alone Huihui.

Liu Qing couldn't bear to see me hit you. Even when you were a kid and were extremely naughty, I never slapped you."

He took a deep breath and said, "I can't bear to see your mother sad..."

Chen

Ping An felt a sour taste in his heart.

My father pierced my eardrum, my mother raised me as a waste, my sister treated me as a thief...

"Dad..." He wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.

Chen Shaohua waved his hand, "It's okay. I just want to tell you that Liu Qing and I have never regarded you as an adopted son.

From the beginning, Liu Qing regarded you as our son.

So I want you to work hard, work hard, and work hard again.

Just like I have been working hard for more than 20 years in Yuncheng.

You have to work hard to be the future head of the Chen family.

You have to make the Chen family capable of becoming a real wealthy family, but not the kind of wealthy family in history.

You have to support this family, but you can't harm the interests of the country.

You have to love your country and your family.

Without the foundation of patriotism, a family will soon Being disintegrated is a very cruel thing, but it is also the reality.

This is what a qualified head of a noble family should do...

I left the capital for your mother. On the one hand, I didn't want to marry into the Huo family, and on the other hand, I looked down on the style of the noble family.

There is no bottom line for the sake of interests.

But now looking back at what happened back then, my father did nothing wrong, and I did nothing wrong.

Your mother did nothing wrong!

So when we returned to the capital, the old man apologized to your mother, and she could only accept it, but she couldn't say that my father was wrong.

Can you understand the truth here? "

Chen Pingan nodded slightly.

The truth is not complicated, it can even be said to be very simple.

Any family cannot do without the soil for survival.

The quality of the soil determines whether the family can grow smoothly.

Chen Shaohua continued, "You should adapt to the identity of the future head of the Chen family as soon as possible. Even if you don't need to be high-profile, all your efforts should be directed in this direction.

Even if you have other ideas, when you become the head of the family, you will have the final say.

Your third uncle looks like a successful entrepreneur, but he has done so many bad things.

Does anyone know?"

Chen Ping'an couldn't help but complain, "Dad, I'm not that bad, and I didn't study family management, I majored in finance.

You don't like dealing with people, you know that."

Chen Shaohua laughed and said, "Then you need to exercise your ability to deal with people.

Otherwise, you may not be able to do a normal job in the future.

I won't talk about the big principles, just hone your skills in Beijing University.

You should also start to accumulate connections.

Even if you don't need to look at anyone's face, but for your own future, you should know what to do."

He turned around and went back.

Chen Ping'an stood on the balcony looking at the scenery and sky outside.
