Chapter 1902 Women Seek Trust, Men Seek Power
She sighed and continued, “Your business is my business. We have known each other for more than 40 years. You have no brothers or sisters, and you have also disconnected from your hometown. I feel distressed when I see you alone. How can I not help you?”
“Old Xia is a terrible donkey, Old Du and I have told you before. This matter, we have to talk about it together. You can’t do it on your own. Old Xia is not a small leader anymore now. He is now the Commander-in-Chief. If he wants to, Shu Man, you can’t fight him.”
It was the same old words that she had heard before. She might have been affected by it when she was younger but it only felt like endless nag now that she was older.
Ms. Xiao, who was listening quietly, did not interrupt her. She just sat there gracefully, with a quiet smile on her face, like a portrait of a beautiful woman.
After her friend finished speaking, she smiled and said, “Old Xia has never been a villain. You still have a prejudice against him. Okay, let’s not talk about them anymore. Is Jia Yi here? I miss her so much.”
Facing the change of topic, Mrs. Li’s eyes dimmed but she smiled and said: “Yes, yes, she’s here. You’re already jumping around just because you didn’t see her. I was pushed out by her to come meet you.”
“Then what are we doing sitting here? Let’s go. We can’t let her wait for a long time.” Ms. Xiao stood up with joy and said with deep emotion, “Having a daughter is still better than having a son. Daughter is a mother’s intimate little princess, Cheng Lan, you are blessed.”
No one didn’t like their children being praised. Madam Li indeed felt the most fulfilled to have two sons and two daughters. The corners of her smile became deeper, “I’m no better than you. You are an adaptable person.”
The two of them walked out talking and laughing, and then Ms. Xiao smiled, sighed and said vaguely, “I was still thinking about whether to match Jia Yi and Ah Yuan together, it’s a pity…”
What was a pity? Ms. Xiao didn’t say it, Li Chenglan also didn’t say anything. It was a pity that the Xia Family and Du Family were different, and they were destined not to be in-laws.
After each of them returned home, Madam Li told everything one by one to Staff Du, and his face became solemn. He was in deep thoughts for a long time before he spoke, “She suddenly doesn’t want us to interfere… could it be that Xiao Shuman wants to understand something?”
“What does she want to understand? Old Du, Shu Man is not stupid, she knows her life best.” Madam Li, who was relaxing in a massage chair, said indifferently, “I have known her for 40 years. I understand her, she understands me, she sees what I do, and doesn’t interfere because she knows that those things have nothing to do with her.”
“Things that are not related to her, Shu Man will never worry about it.”
Staff Du didn’t understand what his wife had said. In his eyes, Xiao Shuman was a person who didn’t know anything about everything. She always had people to do things for her, she didn’t know what was happening around her.
“You said she is a clever person but I think she is just a fool. I don’t understand you women, and I don’t bother to understand. As long as Xia Xinhui has no chance of being promoted these two years, then I am rest assured.”
What women seek at home was trust, what men seek at work was power. Staff Du wanted power.
“I do my business, you do yours. We are already grandpa and grandma, it’s okay to be a little confused occasionally.” Madam Li didn’t say what she would do next. She closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
She was old, little things made her feel tired. But it was impossible not to worry about it.
