Rifts in the Family: Marriage Under Lies

Page 207

However, Zhou Hao was not favored from the very beginning. Otherwise, if the two sides were harmonious, the current Zhou Hao would probably have joined his father's company. When his father retired, Zhou Hao would most likely be the person in charge of his own company.

But at that time, if you talk about it well, your parents might agree, but they were still young at that time.Which young people don't have their own ideas, and which one is willing to do things with their father-in-law?There is always a feeling of eating soft rice.

Ugh…….

Li Man felt very troubled in his mind, and shook off the messy emotions in his mind, and looked at the backward scene outside the car window with his eyes unfocused.

A few hours later, the car finally stopped at the provincial capital station. When Li Man walked out of the station, she didn't expect that her father would send someone to pick her up, so she went straight out of the station and prepared to hail a taxi.

But I didn't expect a man to come face to face, and the man shouted with a smile on his face: "Xiaoman!"

Li Man paused in his steps, turned his head to see, isn't this Song Xiang, his father's right-hand man?He came to pick him up!

Song Xiang is one year older than Li Man, he is the vice president of his father's company, and he is also a subordinate that his father has always been optimistic about.For his arrival, there seemed to be no other possibility except to pick him up.

"Brother Song, my father asked you to pick me up, right?" Li Man asked in surprise.

"Of course President Li asked me to come, otherwise I didn't know you would come back." Song Xiang stroked the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and smiled. Li Man was inexplicably touched. She really didn't expect her father to do this .

"Don't be dazed, let's go, I'll take you back first, I have to go back to the company later!" Song Xiang said with a smile, and opened the car door.

Li Man sat in to calm his emotions, and then started talking with Song Xiang on the way.While chatting, Song Xiang suddenly asked: "Xiaoman, why did you come back suddenly this time? I remember you used to go back to the provincial capital only during the Spring Festival."

"I didn't go to work anyway, and I was bored at home, so I came back to have a look. Brother Song, are your parents okay?"

"It's all good, what about you and Zhou Hao? I heard that your company is doing well. It's actually very good to have this kind of status in just three years. I always think that Mr. Li's requirements are really high. You guys have surpassed many of your peers to be like this!" Song Xiang is the right-hand man of Li Man's father Li Zhonghe, so he naturally knows a thing or two about the Li family, and he is also very clear about the relationship between Li Zhonghe and Li Man. contradiction.

Li Man didn't want to talk about this matter, just smiled as a response.Song Xiang didn't make any further conversations, and arrived at the door of Li's house not long after.

"Brother Song, don't go back in a hurry, go in and have a seat." Li Man got out of the car and said politely, Song Xiang politely refused and drove back to the company without entering.

Li Man was standing at the door of her house. She hadn't come home for more than half a year, and she rarely even called.He rang the doorbell, and soon a woman in her 50s came and answered the door. The woman was Li Man's mother, Wu Yuerong.

"Mom!" Li Man hurriedly greeted his mother when he saw her.It was not as indifferent as imagined, on the contrary, Wu Yuerong also happily took her hand and said: "You damn girl finally knows to come back to see us once, do you think you have called all year round?"

Li Zhonghe and Wu Yuerong have only one daughter, Li Man, so it's no wonder that they don't love each other in their hearts.It was only because of her daughter's "willfulness" that she insisted on marrying Zhou Hao that the conflict arose.

"Mom, I'm sorry!" It seemed that Li Man could only say such things.

The mother and daughter returned to the house together, and it happened that Wu Yuerong was cooking, knowing that her daughter would come back, it was natural to cook two more dishes.

Li Man didn't stay idle to help his mother with the work. After cooking, the mother and daughter waited for Li Zhonghe to come back together.

At six o'clock in the evening, Li Zhonghe finally came back.But in this family, what Li Man fears the most is her father.Although my mother didn't like Zhou Hao very much, she was much better now, and Dudu's father didn't seem to have changed at all from the beginning to the end.Every time Zhou Hao came to pay New Year's greetings during the Spring Festival, Li Zhonghe would not take the initiative to say a word, Zhou Hao had no choice but to toast, and he just took a sip as an answer.

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and this one from Li Man's family is very difficult to recite!

"dad!"

"Well, I'm back, let's eat!"

Li Zhonghe sounds stubborn and rigid in a word.Li Man wanted to say something in his heart, but he swallowed his words when he saw his father's face.

It is the most basic rule of the Li family to eat without talking. After a very dull meal, the family sat together and watched TV for a while, and Li Man only communicated with his mother.As for Li Zhonghe, he just said something abruptly, and then went to the study not long after.

Seeing his father walking away, Li Man sighed in his heart: Dad, he can change a little bit. He asked someone to pick me up today, obviously he doesn't care about Zhou Hao and me, but he still can't let go of his arrogance.Zhou Hao said good things to him, but he didn't respond at all. What do we have to do to face our daughters and sons-in-law like other parents?

This seemed to be an unanswered question, and Li Man and his mother went back to their rooms after a while.

Li Man was lying on the bed without feeling sleepy for a moment, and when he was about to have a phone call with Zhou Hao, there was a knock on the door, Li Man thought it was his mother, and quickly put the phone aside.But when he opened the door, he didn't expect his father to come. He asked in surprise, "Dad, are you still awake?"

"Well, I want to talk to you, put on a coat and come to my study, it's a bit cold at night." Li Zhonghe said with a blank expression, and walked away again.

Li Man frowned, although she was a little surprised that her father took the initiative to talk to her, but seeing her father's face, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

3 Chapter [-]: A Marriage That Was Forcibly Intervened in ([-])

Li Man walked into his father's study wearing a thin coat, and Li Zhonghe was looking at documents and other things wearing reading glasses.

Seeing that Li Man had arrived, he said, "Sit on the sofa."

"Dad, you asked me...what's the matter?" Li Man asked a silly question, so it was natural to ask her for something.It's just that besides asking this question, she couldn't think of how to open the topic.

Li Zhonghe took a look, but he didn't remain silent for a long time, and asked, "Did you quarrel with Zhou Hao when you came back this time?"

Li Man opened his eyes slightly, and quickly explained: "Without Dad, I'm fine with him now, I just want to come back and see you!"

How could his daughter Li Zhonghe not know?My daughter, who didn't come back often before, suddenly said that she wanted to come back. It's no wonder that there is no problem!

Fortunately, Li Zhonghe didn't know what happened in Haishi, otherwise he probably wouldn't even let Li Man come in this time.

"You still want to lie to me, don't you? I haven't reached the level of senility. Tell me clearly what's going on with you and Zhou Hao. Why did Zhou Hao call me last time to ask me where you are?" Li Zhonghe asked in a deep voice.

The last time Li Man disappeared suddenly, Zhou Hao had no choice but to call his father-in-law's house, but he didn't expect the two to quarrel.Li Zhonghe was very angry, but after such a long time, his anger has subsided a lot but he also wanted to figure it out.

Li Man also knows about this matter, so it's hard to say anything about Zhou Hao, so I can only say: "I made trouble for no reason last time. I had a few words with him and then went to a friend's house to play for a few days. I thought I was running home."

"Then what did he say on the phone about 40 yuan? What does that 40 yuan mean, and that you got it at home?" Li Zhonghe really didn't know much about his daughter and son-in-law. The last time Zhou Hao talked about it on the phone The 40 has also made him puzzled until now.

Li Man's heart skipped a beat immediately, and he quickly smiled and said, "Dad, the thing is like this. When Zhou Hao founded Manhe, because of lack of funds, I borrowed some money from some friends. But I was afraid that he would If there is pressure, I will say that I took it at home. But now I have made it clear to him, and we are doing well now."

After Li Man finished speaking, a sneer appeared on Li Zhonghe's face, and he said, "Very well? I don't think you are all well at all. If you are well, you will run back to your mother's house? Xiaoman, you are my daughter." , What do you have that I can't see? I won't talk about the 40 for the time being, but you ask yourself if you have done so much for him, has he ever thanked you? He called me and yelled, Does he still have a bit of dignity! Just such a man who has to pay for his wife to borrow money even to start a business, he can't even think about anything in this life!"

"Dad, Zhou Hao is really not what you think. You know that his family's conditions are not very good. If no one helps him, he will take many detours. And I am his wife, so it is only natural for me to help him. Last time That's all my fault, if it wasn't for my temper, he wouldn't be so anxious and angry with you." Li Man explained patiently, but Li Zhonghe didn't listen, but believed that Li Man and Zhou Hao must be has a problem!

"I've already told you that I'm not old-fashioned yet, tell me the truth, are you having a problem with Zhou Hao now?" Li Zhonghe asked, the biggest problem was that his daughter came home suddenly, and there was no conflict. Never so!And this conflict is still very serious. Anyone who has experienced what happens when a couple is together knows that there will be quarrels, but the sudden return of the daughter who has never returned to her natal home halfway is enough to show that the daughter is not doing well.

Li Man felt that she had no ability to hide anything from her father, as if he had seen through himself.But Li Man would not be foolish enough to tell his father everything, so he could only continue to take responsibility for himself and said:

"Dad, he has been under a lot of pressure recently, and his work is not going very well. So sometimes his temper is a little grumpy, and I can't understand him, so I like to play petty temper. This time we did have a quarrel, but really It's not as serious as you think. And I also want to come back to see you. In the past few years, I have come back so infrequently, and now that you are getting older, how can I, as a daughter, live in my heart. "

"Don't talk so nicely, Xiaoman, I know you ran away to your natal family because you were wronged. From the moment you knew each other, I didn't approve of the two of you being together, but you just didn't listen. Be with that trash! It’s fine if you argue with him and go back to your mother’s house this time. I don’t want to hold you accountable for doing so many things to him. I warned him a long time ago that if I dare to do anything bad to you, I will immediately Pull you back. Now that you have been forced into this, I don't think you should go back!"

Children are the darlings of their parents, how can Li Zhonghe allow his daughter to be angry at all.There is a very mysterious relationship between in-laws and in-laws. Only when both parties have similar family backgrounds can real harmony be achieved.Otherwise, one family is good and the other is poor, and the good party will always feel that they have given the other a lot of benefits, and they should be grateful and treat their daughter well.Even his own daughter was bullied and went back to her natal family to hide, which was absolutely intolerable to Li Zhonghe as a father.

What's more, he never felt that this was a correct marriage. If he hadn't seen that Zhou Hao's performance in the past few years was not bad, and his daughter hadn't suffered any grievances, he would have pulled Li Man back long ago.

Now, probably that kid Zhou Hao felt that he was a bit too strong, so he dared not to take his daughter and him seriously!

It's just that things are really not what Li Zhonghe thought, thank you?Zhou Hao was always grateful to Li Man for marrying him, a poor boy with nothing.This time Li Man went back to her mother's house just to give Zhou Hao a slightly more relaxed environment, but Li Zhonghe was so stubborn that he thought Zhou Hao had done something wrong to her.

But at this moment, Li Man couldn't argue with anything, she could never say to her father: "That's not the case. I stole the man myself and made my husband lose face. I want him to run back to his mother's house slowly!"

Li Man suddenly regretted coming back. Why didn't he think of going back to Zhou Hao's parents, but to his own parents?Knowing that her parents have always had a grudge against her!

Tired of explaining, Li Man could only say: "Dad, things are really not what you think. Zhou Hao and I are fine now. If you insist on thinking that way, I'll just go back tomorrow!"

"Bastard, I won't let you continue to live with him based on the phone call he made to me last time! I'm getting older, and sooner or later, the family business will be handed over to you and him. But He doesn't have even the slightest respect for me, and even yelled and even threatened me, hehehe, if he really takes charge of my career in the future, he can't stand on my head and do his best? While you are still young, With our family's conditions, it is not difficult to recruit a door-to-door. Since he has wronged you, you should break up with him!"
