1632 Chapter 1632
After eating, Chen Mingkang went to the room to study, the Chen family is not a rich family, the house at home is still a thatched roof can be seen, but the house is not very lacking, there are always three, the Chen family is one for the old two, Chen's father and brother are one room, his brother is also unlucky, because he has been good-looking since he was a child, he was taken away by someone because he was not seen at home.
If the old couple didn't have a father Chen, they would have cried and been blind, but because this thing is always depressed, it also affects the life expectancy, it didn't live long, and it was gone before the original owner entered the door, and it was also because of this, the original owner came in to take over the responsibility of the family, otherwise Chen's father was a man, would he not be able to raise children?
With the foundation of these three houses, the current house distribution in the family is like this, the original owner has a single room, which is convenient for hiding money and not letting Chen Juan get his hands dirty. Chen Juan also has a room, but the half of the old couple is counted as her room, except for when she sleeps at night, there is basically no time to rest in the room.
The other half of the room became Chen Mingkang's study, and in addition, Chen Mingkang's own room was still there.
As the only man and hope in the family, he occupies one and a half rooms in three rooms, and this treatment is not too cheap.
As an oppressed Chen Juan, her room was not closed and locked during the day, Li Qiulan could see through it at a glance, the bedding on the bed looked a little old, and there were many traces of patches, but it was not too dirty and cold, which was reasonable.
If it weren't for the kind of thing in the plot, the original owner's stepmother wouldn't dare to say that it was a very bad kind, at least she didn't make deductions in more places.
Li Qiulan's opinion on the two children is the same, she has not inherited the original owner's idea of taking her son as the sky, but she also doesn't feel how bad Chen Mingkang is now, compared to characters like the bear child Xiaobawang, his younger brother is still doing very well, and will be polite to his sister, although he doesn't care much, but, a normal eight-year-old child, expect him to care more about the food and clothing of the children older than him, I'm afraid it doesn't make people secretly suspect that the old cucumber is painted green.
It's not that it's wrong to care, but it's that the direction of this care is wrong, maybe when you are a teenager, you will really think about whether your classmates and friends have other difficulties, that is, the poor children are in charge of the family early, but they will not know those things that have never been exposed to and have not thought about so early.
And Chen Juan, as the protagonist who was persecuted and died by the original owner in the tragedy, she is indeed pitiful, but she seems to be a little angry in addition to the pity, not to mention, Li Qiulan is not the original owner, not to mention anything else, if you don't marry her to that gangster, you can avoid most of the tragedy, and then according to the tradition here, find her a good family she likes, it's okay.
Of course, because it is modern times, there will inevitably be open-mindedness, ideological unlocking and so on in the later period, and it is inevitable that any woman will hold up half the sky.
It sounds like a very good path, and now Li Qiulan can also develop in those directions after leaving the sight of the Chen family, not to mention anything else, it is not difficult to do business, make money, improve life, and be a conscientious factory director.
Furthermore, she can even secretly invest in some optimistic forces to compete for the right to speak in the country in the future, and lead the country to develop in the direction she likes.
Now that there is a newspaper in the city, she can also go to the newspaper to contribute to it, further emancipate women's minds early, and become a pioneer of the women's movement, or a thinker or something like that.
It all sounds great, but there's a premise in it, which is "I do".
Li Qiulan hasn't thought about what she will do in the future, she can think about it slowly, but look at Chen Juan... I'm afraid she doesn't have any idea of reading to change her fate.
As soon as her gaze swept over, Chen Juan felt it, and hurriedly sped up the action of cleaning up the dishes in her hands, there were almost no leftovers, and the plate that had served the meat dishes was even soaked in hot water, and the soaked water was directly drunk by Chen Juan, which was a benefit belonging to Chen Juan that the original owner had acquiesced to, and Li Qiulan naturally would not stop it.
I won't feel how pitiful she is, as if no one has ever eaten vegetable soup and rice, or steamed buns dipped in vegetable soup, the water on the plate is drunk, and it is used as noodle soup, so there is no need to make a fuss, there is a lot of pity.
The original owner's memory is quite clear, when Chen Mingkang was able to go to a private school, the original owner was still very excited, it was really a good thing that he couldn't have dreamed of, and he was able to fall on his own family, which made the original owner proud for a long time.
Chen Juan was also happy at the time, her idea was that the more powerful her brother was, the more he could support himself, which was a common traditional woman's thinking, as for learning, her eyes did not see the meat and vegetables more coveted when she looked at the books, it was just real curiosity.
Not every child is willing to go to school, and those who are tired of school and drop out early in modern times, aren't they?
The First Cause of All Worlds
The original owner never let Chen Juan study, and now Li Qiulan seems that Chen Juan has no intention of studying, since this is the case, she does not need to take the risk of challenging those old-fashioned people in the Chen family to give Chen Juan Bo a student qualification.
Maybe in the future, when a new trend of thought hits here, Chen Juan will find learning useful, and if she wants to learn, then she will learn well at that time, and it is not too late to learn, there is no need to force people to learn now, which will make the family worse and worse, and further fall apart.
Li Qiulan has never liked to watch the drama of Meng's mother's three moves, she lacks a cultivated love for her children, whether it is her own or others', if you don't want to learn, then don't learn, if I want to teach, I naturally have to find someone who is willing to learn, otherwise what else, kneel and beg you to learn, saying that it is for your good, hehe.
Every time I see a parent coaxing their children to let them study, Li Qiulan will only give a cold look, why bother?
If the child will regret it after not learning, just wait for them to regret it and then study hard, now say so much about it, accumulate so much resentment, let each other's feelings be weak, why bother?
When the children are mature, graduated from college, have excellent jobs, and have high incomes, won't they resent their parents' persecution when they were young?
Wouldn't it be nice to have that time to enrich yourself and achieve higher achievements? Or just enjoy your life and not work hard for your children, isn't it?
Li Qiulan, who has such an idea, agrees more that "man is an independent individual", since anyone in the world can live without anyone, and she doesn't want her two children to support the elderly, then she will not use her own view of "good for you" to force them to take the so-called brighter road.
There is no spiritual sustenance for her children to go further and hope that their sons will become dragons and daughters will become phoenixes, Li Qiulan has no requirements, they grow naturally like weeds is the best, as long as they don't go down the wrong path, they don't have to worry too much about the rest, and they don't have to arrange more.
It's like for Chen Juan, since she doesn't have the heart to learn, Li Qiulan will not deliberately cultivate and teach, natural growth is also growth, and the standard of becoming a talent is not something that determines life and death, so why let everyone live so tired.
If you want to get as much as you want, you have to pay more, and this principle is always good.
These thoughts are just a flash in Li Qiulan's mind, and then look at Chen Juan, she is already very devoted to housework, her delicate face is not very good-looking, but her eyes are bright, and she obviously has her own expectations for the future.
Just follow her own wishes.
She's a cheap mother, but I'm afraid she's even more of a stepmother.
The concept is different, I am afraid it is impossible to expect her to arrange a good marriage, so it depends on whether Chen Juan can take this matter as a tempering and stand on her own, if there is no way, she can raise her at most, and she can still do this.
Li Qiulan thought about Chen Juan's affairs in her heart, so she turned her eyes to the study, Chen Mingkang was seriously holding the book and shaking his head, and whispered in his mouth, the private school is still learning old-fashioned things, and wants to use the set of benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith to teach a gentleman, Chen Mingkang is very involved in learning, he seems to be born to love these things, or knows that learning is not easy to come by, so that those concepts are more and more in-depth.
Later the collision of old and new ideas... In this regard, maybe Li Qiulan will be able to comfort him in the future, so that he will not be too aggressive, and he will not be able to do more about the rest.
With a few words in the plot, the original owner never understood what the old and new ideas were, and now Li Qiulan can only say that this modern world seems to have experienced herself, but it is different, the so-called new ideas, for the people here, they are similar old things that cannot be practiced.
Since you can't use it yourself, how can you use it to teach others?
Not to mention, the original owner won't know this, if she preaches nonsense, Chen Mingkang will probably treat the original owner as crazy, not to mention the other Chen clan people, what will they think?
Unless she is really crazy, Li Qiulan will not interfere more in this matter, Chen Mingkang's respect for her is in her mother's identity, not respect for her talents, in this regard, if what she says is contrary to what is taught in the private school, there is no need to gamble, you will know who Chen Mingkang believes more.
Otherwise, Chen Mingkang would not have died in the plot, and the mother who was really the original owner couldn't see that his son was unhappy, and he didn't know how to persuade him?
It's just useless, those words from the perspective of the original owner, the original owner has said it, and he has said it all, but in the end it still can't change the result, and if it is replaced by Li Qiulan, he obviously doesn't plan to say it again, so let him go.
