"Why don't I discuss this with you? Why are you just lighting up the firecrackers?" What's wrong? You can't even let grandma see you for the sake of your children's study, right?"
"Why do you always quarrel with me? Did I tell them not to let them see grandma?" Nan Li also said angrily, "But our time is precious now and we can't afford to delay it for a day.
This time I go back to my hometown, come and go, and stay there for at least three or four days. How can we waste so much time? Let's do this. I promise you that after the primary school entrance examination is over, you and I will take Huanhuan and Chaochao back to our hometown during the summer vacation. Can we go to the head office? "
"The winter vacation lasts for more than forty days. Can't you afford to waste three days?" Xia Junshan argued with reason.
"Of course I can't afford to delay it. You know, every time I go back to my hometown, Huanhuan and Chaochao get wild. By then, they can't take it back." Nan Li said stubbornly, "In the past six months or so, it has been very difficult for me to Let Huanhuan's studies go on the right track, and I won't allow you to sabotage it."
"You are not putting her on the right track, you are just forcing the child to study." Xia Junshan argued.
"I'm forcing her to study, so what? Are she as Buddhist as you?" Nan Li said loudly, "Look at your alumni, they are all better off than you now. Zhong Yi's 20 million villa I bought them all. If you buy a house in a school district, my parents’ wallets will be drained.
If you have the ability, just learn from Zhong Yi and earn tens of millions. In the future, Huanhuan and Chaochao will not have to worry about running out of money, and I won’t be as anxious as I am now. "
Xia Junshan's face suddenly swelled to the color of pig liver when she scolded him like that.
"I have no ability, and I can make more than you now. You were so focused on moving upstream, why were you dismissed from your position!" He couldn't help shouting.
Men hate to be compared with other men by their women. What Nan Li said really touched his nerves.
"Xia Junshan, you bastard!" Nan Li couldn't help crying when she heard this.
Being dismissed from her position by the company was her biggest pain. Xia Junshan's words went straight into her lungs.
"Mom and Dad, please stop arguing. Isn't it good for me to learn?" At this time, Xia Huanhuan came in with her younger brother and said with tears in her eyes.
Seeing their daughter and son, Nan Li and Xia Junshan couldn't help but stop quarreling.
…
Afterwards, Zhao Na came home.
Xia Huanhuan told her about the quarrel between her parents.
After Zhao Na heard about it, she went to find her daughter first, "Why do you and Junshan always quarrel these days? Let me tell you, no matter how deep the relationship between husband and wife is, they can't stand up to such quarrels."
"I didn't want to argue with him, but he really went too far. He objected whenever I took care of the children, and he was irresponsible. Do you think he was angry or not?" Nan Li said speechlessly.
"Okay, whether you're angry or bickering, there are some things you can't say. You just can't say them. Men all have self-esteem. If you compare him with others, what will you make him think?" Zhao Na advised.
"I was in a hurry, so I came out smoothly." Nan Li said awkwardly.
She also knew that it was not good to use Xiang Nan as an example, but she really couldn't stand Xia Junshan's Buddhist approach.
After all, everyone is working hard now and hopes to live a better life. Only Xia Junshan is still so Buddhist. As a result, their family's life is getting worse and worse. If Huanhuan and Chaochao fail to go to college in the future, their family's good life will be over.
"Okay, go back and apologize to Junshan, make concessions, and stop being so aggressive." Zhao Na advised, "All men have dignity, you have to save him face."
"Okay, I understand." Nan Li nodded.
…
Zhao Na then persuaded Xia Junshan a few words, "Lili is a sharp mouth but a tofu heart. She didn't mean what she said, and you shouldn't be as knowledgeable as her.
I just scolded her. You should calm down and give in to each other, okay? "
"Mom, I feel like Lili has changed too much in the past six months. We were very in tune before, doing and thinking the same thing.
But now, she has really changed too much, and she almost wants to be a different person. "Xia Junshan couldn't help but said.
"You should be considerate and considerate of her. Lili has been strong since she was a child. The removal of the director this time has really hit her hard." Zhao Na advised, "Besides, it is not completely unreasonable for her to care about her children's studies."
"Well, I understand, Mom." Xia Junshan nodded.
Later, with the help of Zhao Na, the two apologized to each other.
Nan Li also agreed that Xia Junshan would take Ziyou home first. On New Year's Eve, after having the New Year's Eve dinner with her mother, she took the train overnight to Xia Junshan's hometown, and then rushed back on the night of the first day of the new year.
In this way, even if it is delayed for one day, Xia Junshan can barely have a reunion year.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Xia Junshan nodded.
…
On January 19th, after Xia Junshan took the holiday, he took Chaochao back to his hometown.
Xiang Nan had no plans to go home.
Because he knew that after returning home, it would be difficult to come back. Isolate for fourteen days first, that would be a lot of trouble.
So after the winter vacation, he and Zhang Xueer prepared the New Year's goods by themselves.
"Let's spend the first Spring Festival at our own home first. After the new year, we will return to our hometown." He said to Zhang Xueer, "After all, we have our own family now, right?"
Zhang Xueer agreed with him very much, and she was also willing to spend their first Spring Festival together.
And just as they were preparing for the New Year, news of unknown pneumonia appeared in Wuhan.
But at the beginning, no one paid much attention to it.
It wasn't until January 20, when Academician Zhong Nanshan confirmed that there was a risk of human-to-human transmission of this pneumonia, that everyone started to panic.
On January 23, Wuhan was completely locked down.
When one side is in trouble, support comes from all sides. Medical staff from all over the country rushed to Wuhan. A total of more than 330 medical teams and more than 40,000 medical staff rushed to the epidemic area.
Starting from January 24, strict security measures have been implemented across the country, and entry and exit restrictions have been imposed in all cities, villages, communities, and intersections.
"Oh my god, this epidemic looks so serious. It feels like SARS in 2003." Zhang Xueer looked at the news reports on the epidemic and said to Xiang Nan worriedly.
"Fortunately, I took the time to buy some masks, disinfectant, and medical alcohol in the past two days." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "While we can still come in and out of our community, we took the time to send some to my parents.
Otherwise, looking at this epidemic, there will definitely be a shortage of masks and disinfectant. By then, they won’t be able to buy it even if they want to. "
Zhang Xueer was overjoyed when she heard that she immediately drove home with Xiang Nan and gave a box of 3M masks, a box of disinfectant, a box of medical alcohol, and a box of Lianhua Qingwen capsules to her parents.
"Good guy, these gifts are more valuable than any new year's goods." Zhang Xueer's parents couldn't help laughing when they saw the three big boxes.
Now with the epidemic, masks, disinfectant, medical alcohol, and preventive drugs are the most scarce, and all major pharmacies are out of stock.
But now that there are restrictions on entry and exit, no one can leave the community without a mask, which is a dilemma for the old couple. Now it's good, whatever is missing is available.
