Ning Weimin and Han Yingming, the soon-to-be sons-in-law, were chatting in the living room.
At the same time, Changzi and his daughter Qingzi were busy in the kitchen, chatting about home affairs.
As a traditional woman in a standard Japanese family, and able to endure Han Yingming in the late stages of male chauvinism until today, Tsuneko is undoubtedly a typical good wife and mother.
She doesn’t know much about career or how to work, but she does know how to serve her husband and how to make a home sound and comfortable.
So when Changzi chats with his daughter, he also pays attention to the "minor details" of living at home.
"If your father doesn't object and your relationship can be successfully settled today, then hurry up and prepare for your marriage."
"Well, it depends on the specific situation. My movie will be released soon. It’s been released, so I should be busy with a lot of things, especially since it’s a film co-produced with China, and both countries have to do publicity...”
Chang Zi glanced at the man who was concentrating on the sushi, and it seemed like he wasn’t paying attention at all. The distracted daughter couldn't help but sigh.
"It seems that even if you get married, you don't plan to retire immediately. Then you probably won't want to have a child right away, right? What are your plans? How long do you want to be a two-person world?"
After asking these questions, she paused and then said, "Of course, this is your business. I don't want to interfere... I just want to ask if you have a plan for your child. Should I have this right?”
She is truly worthy of being a biological mother. Changzi understands her daughter's temperament of being soft but not tough.
Originally Qingzi was a little unhappy, but this last sentence made her calm down. After thinking about it, she said hesitantly, "Of course you have this right, but... we haven't thought about it. ..."
"Oh, how can this be done?"
Chang Zi glanced at his daughter and sighed again, "Men can not think about this kind of thing, how can women not think about it..."
Qingzi interrupted her in a coquettish way, "Mom, you just love worrying! I see you have more wrinkles. Can't you do this step by step and slowly? Just let me go first. What a happy few days..."
"I know! In short, you have been very creative since you were a child. We can't control you, but you and Amin must have plans for the future. Especially for children. For women, of course, the sooner you give birth, the better. You have delayed yourself and missed the best time. If you don't hurry up, it will increase the risk. I'm not afraid that you won't like it. Please know your own age and don't let us do it for you. Is it okay to worry about the safety of the birth? Also, if you feel that the time is not right, you must take protective measures. Although we would like to see your child as soon as possible, we don't want you to hold the wedding with a pregnant belly and bring shame to the family. We must think about our old faces..."
As he spoke, the good-tempered Changzi couldn't help but feel resentful.
Matsumoto Keiko was speechless and could only nod obediently.
Indeed, this request is not excessive. They are already very enlightened parents. What else can they do besides nodding?
"Don't worry, Amin and I will... well make plans, please don't worry. Thank you for thinking about me, I know everything about the child..."
"Well, don't be confused. I hope so..."
Chang Zi is indeed thinking about his daughter wholeheartedly.
Even if I talk too much, I still feel verbose. I know that I will be disliked if I meddle in other people's business, but I still can't ignore some things.
After all, she is her daughter, and she is afraid that her daughter will suffer a loss because of her childhood.
In her opinion, the quality of marriage is far more important to women than any personal career.
"You are currently living together in an apartment in Nishi-Azabu, right? How are you doing housework? No matter how big the room is, it is not easy to take care of it. You have never fallen in love with home economics classes since you were a child, and you have never attended bridal classes. Are you having trouble practicing? I'm really worried about you..."
"Mom, you're here again, what's the point of worrying about this?"
Qingzi is not that worried? He cared, and smiled gently, "It's not hard at all, mom, most of it is done by hourly workers."
"Hourly workers? Why don't you do it yourself in such a small apartment? You actually do the housework by yourself. Someone else? "
Chang Zi couldn't help but be shocked. His face trembled for a moment, and his originally charming face became a little distorted.
"What's the point? I'm usually very busy. Sometimes I don't go home until midnight to do shows. Then there's nothing I can do about housework. I have to hire hourly workers."
"Hire hourly workers. It's not impossible, but you're not married yet, are you so lazy and a bit womanly? Amin, he doesn't have any objections?" "He does," Qingzi. Nodding, "His opinion is that he doesn't like me to invite outsiders. He likes to do it himself."
"What? He wants to do it himself?" His daughter's words simply shocked Changzi.
“Yes, Amin doesn’t like outsiders a bit, maybe because he is worried that there are too many people and the things we are together may be accidentally leaked by some talkative people. Later we discussed it and now we are a permanent employee. I am a part-time worker who comes to the house every morning from Monday to Saturday and is responsible for cleaning, tidying up the kitchen and taking out the trash. I only have to do the laundry on Sundays. His cooking skills are really good, much better than mine, and he cooks breakfast every day. After all, he is the owner of the palace cuisine restaurant, and he is an absolute expert in food. I really hope my mother can be the same. If you have time, come to my place and have a taste..."
"Huh? How can this be done...really...is it really possible?"
Chang Zi's mouth could no longer close.
She was so confused that she never thought that a grown man could cook for his wife.
"Well, so what? Both of us feel good about it. Amin said he doesn't like me busy with trivial matters all day long, and hopes that I can focus more on my personal career. But it's not for money. , I just hope that I can do something that makes me happy."
Hearing this, Chang Zi was touched, "Yeah, it seems that he loves you very much..."
Qingzi smiled happily, "Yes, Amin is very good to me. Really very good. He also helps me a lot in my career. Didn't I tell you? I can make this movie. It’s almost all his fault, he is an omnipotent person.”
Changzi felt a little relieved about his daughter’s happiness, but he still refused to give up.
"I still have to say, you kid is really ignorant. Amin loves you so much because he likes you. Although it is a good thing, you must also pay attention to it and don't let him like you. Take it as a matter of course, there are some things you must pay attention to. Just like doing housework, this is a woman's duty. You must not do it for a long time, otherwise you will be disliked. And he is younger than you, so don't always think of yourself as okay. A child who acts like a spoiled child..."
"I understand, mom."
Chang Zi looked at her daughter with a lazy posture and had a splitting headache for a moment.
Although my daughter agrees so readily, her daughter always agrees on the surface, but she must still follow her own ideas behind the scenes.
Ninety-nine percent of the time, things will still be the same. I’m afraid there won’t be any changes.
She previously agreed with her husband's idea, but she actually hoped to find a son-in-law and adopted son to arrange her daughter's marriage.
But my daughter did not accept this trick and resisted blind dates and love for a long time.
Suddenly, I fell in love with a young guy. Regardless of whether it was appropriate or not, he cut off first and played later without even saying hello.
Now that we are living together with someone else, we are even less likely to listen to her, which is really frustrating.
In addition, Ning Weimin seems to be a gentle person, gentle and kind.
He doesn’t look like a person who can say harsh words or control his daughter at all.
She could imagine that after her daughter married Ning Weimin, she lost all restraints and scruples and became arrogant and willful.
She felt that this was too dangerous, and she was worried that if this went on for a long time, her daughter would be returned.
I can only say sincerely, "Qingzi, if you want to be with Amin, you will be his from now on. You must take up your responsibilities as a wife, focus on his career, and help him ease his life." "Listen to me, it's better to retire as soon as possible and have a child as soon as possible."
"We want children, but my career is also important. Why can't we take care of both?" Do I have to retire? I really like acting..."
"How can that be done? From ancient times to the present, the male is the main one and the female is the internal one. Only by working together can the family prosper and live a good life. Yeah. Especially men need face. If a woman still works after marriage, her husband will be laughed at. Why don’t you think about the other person? "
"Mom, I am not you. , Amin is not like my father, she is different. I have told Amin about this a long time ago. Amin has never made such a request to me. Instead, she has been persuading me not to do it if I like acting. Just give up. He is very generous and doesn't care about other people's gossip. Mom, I also feel that I am happiest if I can still have my own career after marriage. And conversely, I also think that only in this way can I help him more. Min. So, just take care of Dad. How to live with A Min is my own business. I will take care of it myself. We will be happier than you and Dad.”
"You..."
Changzi almost fell down in anger, feeling that her daughter didn't respect her life experience at all.
It sounds easy to live a good life, but how can it be so easy to live a good life?
Both people need to make great efforts and personal sacrifices. How can there be so many things that have the best of both worlds?
Besides, my daughter married this man and he was very profitable. He was also the president or president of the company.
Just let him work while hiring part-time workers and working as a cook?
Is this okay for a day or two? Can it be done for a long time?
Besides, human energy is limited, how can a man make money and take care of his family at the same time?
Even at home, my husband is considered a capable businessman even though he is busy running the company all day long.
But the accounts of the family and the accounts of the company are two different things.
Favorites, pension savings, needs for New Years and holidays, and interactions with relatives and friends were all left to him to take care of, and he wouldn't be able to handle them.
These things still have to be arranged by your own hands.
How could my daughter do this!
If you act like this, can you marry me off?
What should you do if you are rejected one day?
It’s not too much to be driven back to her parents’ home!
What an unlucky person. What kind of evil did she do in her previous life? She gave birth to such an inconspicuous thing. My heart is almost broken for her!
When Qingzi saw her mother glaring at her angrily, her expression seemed really anxious, she immediately held her arm with a smile and tried to comfort her.
"Mom, I know you want me to be happy, but now I'm very good. Don't always judge me by the same old things. Don't forget, Amin is a Chinese, and he has the gentlest temperament. We are completely different from those Japanese men who are not very capable and have a bad temper. We have a good relationship, so don’t worry about it.”
“We have a good relationship...haven’t you ever had any quarrels? ? Have you ever seen him get angry? Does he think there’s anything wrong with you?”
"Never. Oh, how can I make you believe me. Amin, he...he is the best man I have ever seen."
Matsumoto Keiko said with absolute certainty, "In Japan , as long as men are slightly capable, men who are good at it all think that women should be their appendages. They think that they are the center and women should revolve around them. But Amin is not like this. He respects me very much and never orders me anything. He just gives me suggestions. Most of the time, he lets me do whatever I want. Even if I sometimes test him and do something excessive on purpose, he doesn't do anything. Feeling. I don’t know why there is such a big difference between Chinese men and Japanese men... Mom, I have to say that it is my luck to meet Amin. He is a person worthy of my life. I am willing to treat him like this. Pay for him. If one day, objectively, he really needs me to retire, then I will take the initiative to give up my career and take care of my family without him having to say anything. On the contrary, if I marry my father like you. If such an arrogant person insists on ordering me to do this or that, then I won’t be able to survive for a day, and I will have to commit suicide..."
"What nonsense! You kid! That's too much! How can you say that about your father?"
Hearing the last sentence, Chang Zi couldn't help scolding him, but he nodded silently in his heart.
Indeed, this is also true.
If given a choice, who would want to see his daughter endure humiliation and bear the burden of serving others?
Compared with her husband, only someone like Ning Weimin can trust her daughter with her.
Her daughter is too willful, too spoiled, stubborn, and has a bad temper.
But I am afraid that being in the entertainment industry is not in vain. I am really smart and bright-eyed when it comes to important matters such as marriage, and it is unlikely that I will miss people.
Speaking of her worries, it is actually just because she is afraid that her daughter will always follow her own temper and completely ignore the other party.
If Ning Weimin gets bored after being new for a while, and the two of them start arguing every day, problems will arise.
But everything is fine now. Maybe it's a little early to worry about this matter, and maybe it really shouldn't be a bother.
I can’t understand today’s young people!
She gave up completely in desperation, almost thinking about it.
Whether you can rest assured or not, what can you do if your daughter is disobedient?
Fortunately, my daughter's luck is not bad. She made the right choice for this prospective son-in-law.
You are handsome, sincere, and likable at first glance.
He is also very smart, capable, hard-working, and definitely not the kind of person who is unreliable.
It can be regarded as complementary to my daughter who loves to talk about others.
Probably as long as his daughter wins his heart, a lifetime of happiness will not be a problem.
I have to admit that it seems that my daughter's life is better than my own.
A little jealous. (End of this chapter)
