Republic of China: Guandong Ginseng King

Chapter 310 Qu Shaoyang Gets Angry

On the way back, Qu Shaoyang was just wondering why his parents came to the Northeast without saying a word, and didn't think about anything else.

In his opinion, it was probably the brothers at home who were not careful enough and made their parents angry again.

Another reason is that they may have heard from people who have returned home how good life is here, and the old couple are too old to work, so they want to come here and enjoy a peaceful life.

Qu Shaoyang could accept all of this, after all, they were his biological parents.
As a son, it is your duty to respect your parents and provide them with support in their old age.

But he forgot one thing. His father had a weird temper and was used to saving money all his life. After coming here, he couldn't adapt to the life in Qu's house at all.

"Dad, Mom, why did you two come all the way from your hometown in Shandong to Maoer Mountain?
Are you here to enjoy a comfortable life, or to be a master and boss me around?"

Qu Shaoyang tried to endure it again and again, but in the end he couldn't help it and got angry.

"If you come here to enjoy a peaceful retirement, I will arrange a small courtyard for you, take care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation, and hire two maids to serve you.

You don't have to do anything, just enjoy your life in peace.

If you come here to be my old master and want to be in charge of my household and control me, then forget it.

I'll pack some money for you and send you back to your hometown right away."

Qu Shaoyang's temper has never been tolerated by anyone, even when his parents come.

Originally, he had no feelings for Qu Laokouer. In fact, his feelings for him were not as deep as those for Liu Dongshan and Chen Langzhong.

This old Qu is still jumping up and down, how can Qu Shaoyang tolerate him?

After these words were spoken, Qu Laokouer, who had been chattering away just now, was suddenly dumbfounded.

"Si Huzi, what did you say? I am your father, this is your mother, you want to send us back?
We gave birth to you for nothing, right? Is this how you are filial to us?"

Qu Laokouer pointed at Qu Shaoyang's nose and was about to curse him.

"You gave birth to me and raised me, and I didn't treat you unfairly. How much money and things have I contributed to your family in the past two years? How do you expect me to be filial to you?"

Qu Shaoyang snorted and shook his head.

"This house, from inside to outside, every brick, every tile, every blade of grass, every tree, I built it with my own hands without any money from you.

I have achieved my current status without any help from my family, I have achieved it through my own efforts.

I just want to ask, what contribution have you made to this family? Why do you come here to make decisions? Why do you have the right to be the master of the family? "

Qu Shaoyang was not born and raised in this era, so he would not be controlled by those foolish filial piety ideas.

If parents are reasonable, both sides can get along well. If parents are unreasonable, then sorry, just go somewhere cooler.

"My wife, I married her myself.

The girl I like will marry me, give birth to children for me, do housework for me, and manage everything in the house.

I can't bear to say a harsh word myself, so why do you scold her?
Not to mention hiring four maids to serve me, I would be happy even if you hired forty or four hundred.

I take care of my own wife and I love her, what does it have to do with you?

My mother married you, gave birth to several children, and had to do laundry, cook, and serve people. It was because you were incompetent that she suffered.

I have the ability, I just want my wife to have everything she wants, eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks, what's wrong with that? Nothing wrong with that?"

"My family members work hard, why can't they have enough food to eat?
Not to mention the servants you raise at home, even if you raise a few animals, you have to feed them before you can work, right?

What? Can humans not catch up with animals?

I dare not say anything else, but these guys at home are so hard to find even with a lantern.

All the big and small things at home are arranged clearly without me having to say anything.

There are so many people outside who are trying to pry these guys away by digging holes in the doors. Why do you say that everything they do is just a problem?
Don't bring up the old ways in your hometown, this is Maoer Mountain, not your hometown." Qu Shaoyang knew very well that if he didn't set up the rules today and destroy Qu Laokou'er's prestige, he would have many more troubles in the future.

In order to live a peaceful and stable life in the future, he had to put an end to it once and for all. When they first met, he subdued Qu Laokouer so that he would not dare to do anything naughty again.

Therefore, Qu Shaoyang did not give Qu Laokouer any chance to interrupt and directly stated his position to let Qu Laokouer understand his attitude.

Sure enough, Qu Laokou was stunned by his son's words. He looked at Qu Shaoyang with his mouth open, and was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

"Dad, Mom, think about it for yourselves. It's up to you how you want to live your life in the future.

If you can make a living in your hometown, you two definitely shouldn't come to the Northeast.

What's the matter? You were bullied by those guys at home and have no place to stand, so you come here to bully me?

Sorry, no way.

Stay still, I have enough food and drink for you, I will definitely provide for you well, if you continue to make trouble, then pack up and leave."

Qu Shaoyang said a few words and turned to walk into the house.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Chen Xiuyun holding the door frame of the west room, looking at him with tears in her eyes.

Qu Shaoyang was immediately heartbroken and hurried forward, hugging his wife in his arms.

"I'm sorry that you've been upset during the days I wasn't home." Qu Shaoyang patted Chen Xiuyun's back and comforted her softly.

“The two elders came unexpectedly, and you were not at home, so I sincerely wanted to treat them well.

But, alas, I really don’t know how to put it.

Shaoyang, I don't have to go back to my parents' home, it's just that staying here is too annoying." Chen Xiuyun hugged her husband's waist and cried in grievance.

"Okay, okay, I'm back now. I'm here so I can't bully you. I'm sorry for making you angry.

Come, let me see. I haven't seen my wife for more than two months. Has she changed at all? Has she gained weight or lost weight?"

Qu Shaoyang reached out to wipe his wife's tears, looked at her face carefully, and found that Chen Xiuyun was much thinner than in the first month of the year.

"Did the child bother you, or did your father get mad at you? I noticed that you've lost a lot of weight."

Qu Shaoyang calculated carefully in his mind. Chen Xiuyun was almost six months pregnant. Logically, she should be much plumper.

But now, apart from a slightly bulging belly, there is no sign of gaining any weight on the face and body, and in fact, she has lost a lot of weight.

This made Qu Shaoyang very heartbroken.

"It's okay, the child doesn't bother me much.

It's just that you've been away for a long time, and I'm always worried about it, and I don't think you're eating well."

Chen Xiuyun wiped her cheeks and forced a smile, trying to get away with it.

The smile on Chen Xiuyun's face was very stiff, how could Qu Shaoyang not see it? But his wife obviously didn't want to say it, and Qu Shaoyang knew that it was useless for him to ask.

So, Qu Shaoyang changed the subject, "By the way, when did my parents come?"

Chen Xiuyun thought about it carefully, "It seems to be after the second day of the second lunar month, quite early, our friends haven't come back yet, but the two elders arrived first."

It is now the beginning of March, which means that Qu Laokouer and his wife have been in Maoer Mountain for a month.

Qu Shaoyang nodded, and probably understood why his wife was so thin and looked so haggard.

With such a noisy father-in-law around and the husband not at home with no one to support him, no one would be able to eat or sleep well.

Maybe I had a cold, sore throat and cough. After breakfast in the morning, my daughter went to English class, so I took a nap and ended up sleeping until now.
