Chapter 101 How good-looking others are
Wen Xin and Wen Yu's words chilled Deng Xiuzhen, but she didn't want to say anything.
Wenxin is sixteen years old, and Wenyu is twelve. Children of this age are more inclined to stick to what they believe in.
In my past life, I was a grandchild. With the internet so readily available, I could search for anything on my phone.
In order to take good care of her grandson, she carefully searched and learned about the rebellious period of children.
Children's rebellious phase generally has three stages:
The first period is when children are 2-3 years old. During this stage, children gradually develop a sense of independence, have their own ideas, exhibit behaviors of refusal, and have an urge to explore the outside world.
Many people don't pay attention to this kind of rebellion, thinking that the child is too young and doesn't understand, and then they just give in to it.
The second rebellious phase is between 7 and 9 years old. During this period, 99.9% of children are in school. Due to changes in lifestyle and education, they may experience maladjustment, which can lead to rebellious behavior.
During this period, parents are busy with life's pressures and have less communication with their children. When children come home, they just do homework. If you try to tutor them, it can cause chaos and tension in the relationship.
Sometimes parents don't even notice when their children do something unusual. Other times they do notice, but don't pay much attention because children at this age usually don't cause much of a problem.
Little did they know that the ancients said, "You can tell what a child will be like at three, and what he will be like at seven," referring to children in these two age groups who might do some unreasonable and disruptive things due to their rebellious nature.
Parents should not assume that their children are too young to understand and let them run wild, nor should they give in to them out of fear of trouble. Instead, they should help their children develop some basic values, learn to follow some rules, and learn self-discipline and independence.
Children in these two periods are highly malleable. As long as parents show more care and guidance and set good rules for them, they are unlikely to go astray.
The third period is from 13 to 18 years old. Children in this period have basically formed their own outlook on life and values and will not be easily swayed.
Forcibly intervening will backfire: they will think you are suppressing them and will oppose you.
Wenjing and Wenxin are in the third stage, while Wenyu has already shown signs of things. At this time, I should talk about Qin Yanlin and that Tian Yutong, and so on.
Wenjing's protectiveness will force Qin Yanlin to drive Tian Yutong away.
Wen Xin and Wen Yu, who are biased towards Qin Yanlin and Tian Yutong, might think that they are petty and making wild guesses.
Even if they try their best to defend themselves or prove their point, they will think that they are not a good match for their father and that the other two are more suitable!
It's not that the two children are bad, nor that they don't love themselves.
They are simply more inclined to uphold their own views and more willing to trust their own judgment.
She now leans towards Wenjing, but she won't easily give up her other two children. Even if she's heartbroken, she still cares about the children she carried for ten months and gave birth to, let alone the fact that they're just blind now.
We all crave swift retribution and look forward to a dramatic turn of events.
But everything in the world is actually entangled and difficult to let go of.
Especially when it comes to one's own child, who can simply abandon them? Let alone feel disgust or hatred.
“Mom, you should learn from Aunt Tian. She looks so good! Look at you, you're clearly rich, but you still wear cheap clothes from street stalls, so unfashionable.” Wenxin desperately wanted to convince Deng Xiuzhen so she could feel more confident when she was with her mother. Maybe then she could dress more stylishly and elegantly.
“I have no money left. Your father owes Uncle Qi money for materials, and his company is having cash flow problems, so he asked me to take these two million to pay it off,” Deng Xiuzhen explained with a smile, but her tone was indifferent.
"Huh?" Wenxin was stunned. First, her father owed money for materials, and he owed so much. Second, how could Deng Xiuzhen have given away all the money so easily? Didn't she know how to save her own life?
"Mom, why didn't you tell Dad? Why did you pay for it yourself?" Wen Yu had heard Qin Yanlin tell someone that Qi Guomin was going to delay paying for the materials.
"Your dad made me pay, and your dad owes more than two million; I even used the foundation of the alley to pay off the debt!" Qin Wenyu's words angered Deng Xiuzhen, and her anger was evident in her words.
The two children sensed it and stopped talking; they still had an instinctive fear of their mother.
Early the next morning, Deng Xiuzhen went to the ancient street. Old Zhao had asked her to give the card to Qingming, and she needed to take care of it.
When Deng Xiuzhen found Qingming's house, he was sitting in the yard eating breakfast: two steamed buns and a bottle of water.
After Deng Xiuzhen explained her purpose, Qingming didn't move, and asked softly, "Where are they? Are they coming back?"
Deng Xiuzhen hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "Xiaobao and his mother are dead, and Uncle Zhao is in jail. He probably won't be out..."
After half a day of silence, Deng Xiuzhen, not wanting to stay there too long, took out her card and stuffed it into his hand.
He clenched his fist, refusing to take the card, and stepped back a little, saying, "Take the money. I get a monthly allowance, enough to live on. If Uncle Zhao gets into trouble in the future, someone will need to handle things."
"This is from Uncle Zhao!" Deng Xiuzhen didn't know how much money was in the card, but she really didn't need it.
"Uncle Zhao gave it to me, I'll give it back to you now, don't try to force it on me, I don't need it!" Qingming's voice was soft, but firm.
“Qingming, you…” Li Huzi walked in, saw Deng Xiuzhen and was taken aback, then asked, “What are you doing here?”
Just as Deng Xiuzhen was about to answer, Qingming spoke up first: "She came to see Xiaobao and asked if I wanted some old clothes."
"Oh," Li Huzi replied and sat down next to Qingming. Looking at Deng Xiuzhen, he said, "Xiao Bao was taken to the capital by Uncle Zhao. It's been a long time."
Deng Xiuzhen nodded, saying that Qingming had already told her. Hu Zi told Deng Xiuzhen about the land and house, saying he would help her take care of them. Deng Xiuzhen quickly expressed her gratitude.
Qingming said, "Huzi and I have things to do, so you can go ahead and take care of them."
In the afternoon, Tian Guoqiang found Deng Xiuzhen and asked with a smile, "You went to see Qingming today? What did you want to do with her?"
Deng Xiuzhen told him about Uncle Zhao, including how Uncle Zhao and his accomplices kidnapped her and wanted her money.
After hearing this, Tian Guoqiang sighed with emotion: "I've known Uncle Zhao for several years. He's not a money-loving person, and he would never do bad things for money. I never expected that he would make such a big mistake because of his children in his old age. It's such a pity!"
"Why did you come to me? Are you here to ask me for help again?" Deng Xiuzhen joked.
Tian Guoqiang laughed: "Hmph, do you think I'm incompetent and have to rely on you?"
Deng Xiuzhen laughed and asked, "Old Zhao said he would give me his house, and he has all the signatures and stuff. Do you think I should give this house to Qingming, or should I keep it myself?"
