Chapter 181 I'm So Stressed

Love is always beautiful at the beginning.

Because both parties will do their best to show their good sides.

But as time goes by, these disguised goodwill will gradually be worn away, revealing each other's true nature.

If the contrast with the time when they were together is too great, both of them will wonder why he (she) is like this, and then conflicts will arise, which will then escalate into quarrels.

In fact, this is just a running-in period, and it will be over once it is over.

Tang Zhihua obviously couldn't accept Luo Qiuyi showing her true nature and chose to break up.

Chen Zui, on the other hand, doesn't know if he and Zhao Wanrou are still in the stage of showing off their beauty to each other, or what. Anyway, they have been wonderful since the beginning.

Especially tonight.

He pretended to be drunk and received unprecedented treatment.

After soaking her feet, Zhao Wanrou felt that she could not let her drunk boyfriend sleep on the sofa, so she took him to her room.

My sister's bed is very soft and smells good.

The thick but light cotton quilt covers the body very warmly.

The most important thing is that Zhao Wanrou did not turn around to sleep on the sofa.

Instead, she got into bed with her clothes on and hugged his body from behind.

So this night was not only quiet and quiet, but also had fragrance and warmth lingering in my heart and nose.

Chen Zui did not hug her back, nor did he do anything that an eighteen-year-old boy should have done in a hurry.

Because if he did that, he would feel sorry for his sister's tenderness.

He was still very innocent, but he actually fell asleep with the corner of his mouth raised like this.

When Chen Zui woke up early the next morning, he found his sister crawling into his arms.

A ray of sunlight fell into the room through the gap in the curtains. He didn't move, just hugged him and smiled like an idiot.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhao Wanrou's long eyelashes blinked.

She raised her eyes and saw Chen Zui who was hugging her.

So when they raised their heads, some little girls pouted in a gesture.

Chen buried his head most deeply and kissed her softly.

A crisp popping sound resounded throughout the room.

Then my sister rubbed her pretty face against his chest and fell asleep again.

Chen Zui also closed his eyes naturally.

He had a blissful sleep with her.



Mother Chen did not go back to sleep.

But when I woke up today, a sense of happiness overflowed in my heart, so much so that I smiled when I got up.

Because he got up a little early, Chen's father had not returned home from the night shift, but the morning market was already out. No matter what, Chen's mother felt that she should have something sumptuous, so she packed up and walked out of the house.

When I met my neighbor when I went downstairs, she was beaming with smiles.

When I was shopping for vegetables, I met a stall owner I knew. She was also generous today and didn't bargain for a cent more.

It is said that people are in high spirits during happy events. An acquaintance asked Mrs. Chen what happened today and why she looked so happy.

Mother Chen would puff out her chest, she couldn't help it, and proudly said: "Yesterday, my son bought me a house."

Don't blame the old lady for showing off

But when they reach middle age, once their children do something that would make their parents proud, it is really hard for them to endure it.

And when people hear this sentence, they will immediately be amazed

"Isn't your son just going to college?"

"When you make money, you buy a house for me. How filial."

"Let me tell you, your face is rosy today, and it looks like something is going to happen."

"Then, why move away?"

"Just say hello to the housewarming and say hello to it."



It didn't take a whole morning to just go to the morning market, and everyone knew that Lao Chen's family had changed their house, or that his son had made money for it.

Except Dad Chen

Something happened in the afternoon yesterday, so he went out early, and then worked the whole night shift for this small family. He had no idea what big thing happened in his family.

As usual, I opened the door and shouted, "Mother," when I realized that there was no one in the little house.

On weekdays, Mother Chen should be making breakfast for him at this time, but today?

The old couple didn't bother to make a phone call. They probably went to the morning market to buy groceries and then came back soon. Father Chen opened the refrigerator first to see if there were any leftovers to prepare for a bite.

The refrigerator also lived up to his expectations.

After all, his wife is someone who is not willing to throw away anything, so she has no problem with a bite of breakfast.

Just when she was putting the leftovers into the microwave oven that Chen Zui bought earlier, which was indeed very convenient for heating rice, Chen's mother, who had come back late this morning because she was showing off outside, opened the door.

As soon as Father Chen took a look, he saw that she was carrying several large bags of ribs, pork belly, and various vegetables.

So his eyes widened: "Why did you buy so many things today?"

No wonder Father Chen was surprised, after all, it was difficult for Mother Chen, who was diligent and thrifty, to buy so many things at once.

On weekdays, when she goes to the morning market, she only has a small bag at most, and she has to buy bargains.

The reason why Mother Chen didn't buy a house with Father Chen yesterday was because he was burning the midnight oil, for fear that he would know some news and lose his concentration, which would be unsafe.

I had been holding it in all night, but now I saw him, I was even less anxious, so I gave it a try: "Is this still too much?"

"Isn't that much?"

"Your son bought a house yesterday."

"ah?"

Father Chen, who had just sat down and picked up his chopsticks, froze his hands as if he was making sure his ears heard correctly.

Mother Chen put several bags of vegetables on the table and took out a brand new key from her trouser pocket: "Has the day shift taxi downstairs left? It hasn't left. I want to take a look again."

Father Chen frowned. He hadn't eaten yet and was trying hard to digest the news.

But he didn't seem to digest it well, so he could only frown: "What, my son bought a house?"

"Yeah, LaCrosse, do you know?"

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, let me ask you, has your son bought a house?"

"Why don't you ask?"

"no"

"Is the taxi downstairs? What time will it take over?"

"It has to be seven o'clock anyway, and it's still an hour."

"Then go, quickly, quickly."

"No, it's my meal."

"I'll treat you to Lao Liu's noodles. Don't eat these leftovers."

"ah?"

Without saying a word, Mother Chen pulled the old man to stand up, regardless of whether his stomach had finished digesting the food or not.

But she did feel itchy if she didn't take another look. In fact, after paying the money yesterday, she wanted to take a look at her future home. If Chen Zui's friend hadn't come, she would have dragged Chen Zui there no matter what.

There happened to be a car this morning

Is there any reason not to go?



With a confused face and still trying to accept the reality while driving, Chen's father pulled Chen's mother to the LaCrosse property.

Seeing the neatly planned entrance of the community in front of him, which was completely different from the shabby appearance of his own rental house, he hesitated to speak.

The community has not yet been officially completed, and several buildings built later are still under construction, but security guards have already appeared at the gate. The owners do not have access cards, but everyone knows the keys.

Showing his keys, the taxi drove into the community.

Following Mother Chen's instructions, they came to a stop under Building C.

Seeing his mother-in-law showing a silly smile and actually not getting out of the car in a hurry, Father Chen had to say: "Is this it?"

"Yes, this is this"

"Then get off the car"

"I'll watch for a while"

Father Chen: "..."



Neither Chen Zui nor Chen's father could understand how important one-third of an acre of land was to Chen's mother.

A woman in her forties, because of her illness, caused her family to fall into ruin, leaving her and her family to live in a rented house. Faced with the helpless reality of having no house or land, she often felt self-conscious.

How sad is it?

And when she has a home again, her impatience and elation will naturally double.

So, I came downstairs to my new home.

Mother Chen not only wanted to look inside the house, but even outside the building, she looked at it with bright eyes for five minutes.

nice

So lovely

It's 10,000 times more beautiful than the red brick building.

Finally, after being reminded by Father Chen, "Have you seen enough? Is there anything interesting to see outside this building?", Mother Chen finally got out of the car.

Then she went upstairs with a quick pace that she had never seen in the past two years.

Father Chen followed closely behind. When he saw a door being opened, revealing a spacious space with cement gray walls, he was also touched.

It seemed like a few years, since Chen's mother was discharged from the hospital, the two people who had never held hands looked into each other's eyes.

Mother Chen smiled, picked up her husband, who had worked hard day and night for the past two years, and walked in.

Then, like a little girl, she pointed to the floor-to-ceiling windows that were particularly bright today and asked, "Is it bright or not?"

"light and spacious"

Father Chen answered, looking at the spacious two bedrooms and one living room in front of him, it felt like a dream had come into reality.

Mother Chen longs for her own piece of land, so why doesn’t Father Chen long for a home for his own family?

He just knows how to drive, and he has the helplessness of many middle-aged people. In addition to working hard within his ability, he can't be asked to do more.

"Here, I will get you a small tea table from now on. Don't you love drinking tea? You can drink it here from now on and watch the scenery while drinking tea, okay?"

"good."

"Didn't you always want to get a dog? When you move in, you can make a nest for your future dog here."

"Um."

"Is this good?"

"good."

"What’s wrong with you?"

Mother Chen saw that Father Chen didn't seem as happy as she was, so she asked.

Seeing his mother being so happy, Father Chen certainly would not be disappointed, so he agreed: "It's okay, this house is really nice."

Looking at him, Chen Ma knew that she was overjoyed, and immediately realized that the house in front of her would somehow touch the old man in front of her.

So she no longer held Dad Chen with one hand, but held his hands that were much rougher than when she was young: "What, you think your son is too capable?"

Father Chen immediately shook his head: "My son is a good son."

"Just what?"

"It's just that he is so old, which puts me under a lot of pressure."

Chen Ma burst out laughing, facing the rising sun through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and said brightly: "No matter how talented he is, he is not your son, you will always be his father."

Father Chen smiled when he heard this, stopped talking about this topic, and turned around: "Which house should we live in?"

"Jiewu."

"I can't let my son take the decoration money anymore. I'll do it."

Chen Ma was so happy that she mumbled something about "an old man's self-esteem".

"What did you say?"

Mother Chen shook her head and held Father Chen's arm: "It's okay, it's okay."
