Chapter 25

Chen Family

“Dabing, you’re back. Why are you here so late today? Is anything wrong?” As soon as Chen Bing entered the house, his mother came up to him with a worried look on her face.

She gave birth to two daughters before she gave birth to this son, and he is her only son. Chen Bing is her life.

“He’s such a grown man, what could possibly happen to him?” The middle-aged man sitting on the sofa put down the newspaper in his hand and said disapprovingly.

The person who spoke was Chen Bing’s father, Chen Zhihua, the logistics director of the machinery factory. Chen Bing looked very much like his father, which showed how strong the Chen family’s genes were.

Mother Chen opened her mouth but did not dare to refute. She was not the one who had the final say in this family.

“I asked you to find out about the Du family. How did you do?” Chen Zhihua asked Chen’s mother.

“The Du family is just a working-class family. Du Weihai is a fourth-level worker, and there are four unmarried sons in the family. Even if his daughter is pretty, she is not worthy of our soldier.” Chen’s mother spoke with contempt in her eyes.

She totally looked down upon such a family. If her husband had not asked her to inquire, she would not have even given the Du family a consoling look.

Her husband is the logistics director of the machinery factory and a section-level cadre, and her son is an officer in the Propaganda Department. Given their family conditions, it is more than enough for him to marry the daughter of a cadre.

“You are confused. You have no ability. How long can your family support you no matter how good it is? Today, Director Yu allocated a courtyard to Du Yimeng, and no one can stop him. Based on this momentum, Du Yimeng will have a good future.” Chen Zhihua rebuked in a low voice with disapproval.

Short-sighted, womanly perspective.

Not everyone can get a house. Some people have worked in a machinery factory with their families for many years but still have no chance to get a house.

Who is like Du Yimeng, who was assigned a yard just one month after starting work? This shows that she is capable, so Director Yu ignored the rules and made special arrangements.

Moreover, Director Yu also instructed that the matter should not be made public for the time being, simply because he was worried that something unexpected might happen.

Just for this reason, he deserves to look up to her.

“Then I’ll ask someone to talk to the Du family. Based on our family’s conditions, the Du family will definitely agree to this marriage immediately.” When Chen’s mother heard the word “yard”, her eyes lit up. Although they also lived in a yard, who would complain about having too many houses?

Moreover, her eldest daughter’s family is still living together. Once the two of them get married, she will give the yard to her eldest daughter.

Once someone enters the Chen family, he or she is a member of the Chen family, and she has the final say.

“What Du Yimeng? What marriage?” Chen Bing had just recovered from ‘my mother said’, but he heard the name that left a psychological trauma on him again.

“Dabing, I heard that you and Du Yimeng from the technical department are classmates. What do you think of her?” Chen Zhihua’s tone softened a lot when facing his only son.

Chen Bing: Not very good…

Even without what happened just now, he would have thought that Du Yimeng was a good marriage partner. But now, he would never think so again.

He was afraid that if he stayed with her for too long, his brain would become abnormal, and he didn’t want to be like a fool, being led by the nose.

That wasn’t him, and he would never be that kind of person.

“Dad, Du Yimeng’s four younger brothers are a burden.” Chen Bing didn’t say much, but his refusal was obvious.

“It’s okay. After getting married, a woman will focus on her husband’s family.” Chen Zhihua said indifferently. Isn’t that the case with his wife?

Before getting married, I listened especially to my family members, but after getting married, I only listened to him.

Chen Bing looked at Chen Zhihua with a speechless look. His father thought too well of people and didn’t know how treacherous human hearts are!

Anyway, he has seen the true face of the Du family…

“What’s wrong?” Chen Zhihua didn’t understand why his son looked at him with that expression?

“Dad, do you believe that everyone in the Du family will live in the house allocated to Du Yimeng?” Chen Bing said in a faint voice.

“Why?” Before Chen Zhihua could say anything, his mother was already unhappy. In her opinion, since she had agreed to the marriage, Du Yimeng’s house belonged to their Chen family.

“Shut up. Don’t say such things outside.” Chen Zhihua glared at Chen’s mother fiercely. This brainless person said whatever she wanted.

The house belongs to Du Yimeng. He can give it to whoever he wants to live in it, and no one can interfere.

Mother Chen was like a duck with its neck pinched, and she dared not say a word.

She is a typical brainless person who likes to make a lot of noise, while Chen Zhihua is a very cunning person, otherwise he would not have been able to climb from a small logistics team leader to the position of logistics director.

“Soldier, come with me to the study.” Chen Zhihua said to Chen Bing, and stood up first and walked towards the study.

It is good to find an obedient wife, but it has its pros and cons. That bad mouth can also bring trouble to the family, so he never says anything in front of his wife.

When Chen’s mother saw the father and son entering the study, she secretly curled her lips. There were only three people in the family, and the father and son had to run into the study to talk. Aren’t they just guarding against her?

Half an hour later, the father and son came out of the study. However, from today on, the Chen family will no longer mention the marriage with the Du family.

Chen Zhihua sighed silently in his heart. What a pity…

He was very optimistic about Du Yimeng and felt that her future achievements would go beyond the immediate benefits.

How could he not know how capable the son he raised was? At most, he had some small thoughts. If the Chen family wanted to continue to prosper, they had to rely on external forces, so he wanted to find a capable daughter-in-law.

Their family conditions are good, but they don’t want to be the wronged.

This is a huge injustice. Only those who did it know it. He is always depressed.

At the same time, he despised Du Weihai in his heart. If he had such ambitions, he should go out and work hard to climb up!

But it is used on one’s own family. What kind of ability is that?

No wonder he is still a Level 4 worker after all these years…

He also admitted that he was extremely cunning, but he never used such tactics on his own family.

When it comes to shamelessness, he is ashamed!

Because he is not as good as Du Weihai!

He originally thought that the fact that the Du family was able to train Du Yimeng into a technical secondary school student showed that they were not a family that favored boys over girls.

Good fellow, it turns out that they wanted to train their daughter to be a talent, but this family lied on their daughter and sucked her blood, how shameless…

Du Weihai has four sons, while he only has one son, and he doesn’t favor sons over daughters. But Du Weihai, on the other hand, is so bad that he cheats on his daughter.

The key point is that this daughter is so outstanding. It turns out that only her own father can betray her daughter!

He directly classified Du Weihai as one of the most annoying people, and there was no other one like him.

From beginning to end, he never doubted what Chen Bing said, mainly because he believed his son, and if it was not true, why did Du Yimeng say so?

After all, both his family conditions and his son himself are better than those of ordinary families.

He never dreamed that the reason Du Yimeng said all this was purely because Chen Bing delayed her meal.
