Restarting 16 Years Old, the Champion is Tiger and Tea

"What kind of business do you want to do? Our family is all government-funded, and we don't have any business people." Grandma's voice suddenly became louder, her face full of disgust.

"Grandma, you are a housewife, a farmer who works hard to make a living. You don't want to eat government food."

Wen Xin knew that this was going to cause trouble again, so he refuted calmly and clearly, picked up a piece of pork head with chopsticks and put it in his mother's bowl.

"Farmers are better than speculators. Speculators are not decent people."

Grandma pursed her lips with a look of disdain, and Li Yan's face fell.

"What nonsense are you talking about? What do you know? If you don't understand, stop talking nonsense." Grandpa shouted loudly, and grandma rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction.

"Oh, grandma, you are quite capable. You even know how to speculate. But opening a store and speculating are two different things. This is encouraged by our national policy. Grandma, don't go against the country."

Wen Xin spoke slowly, this blatant contempt made grandma even angrier.

"It's embarrassing to open a shop and show up in public. Second brother, your wife doesn't have a job anyway, so why don't you come back and take care of us? It's a good opportunity to take back the land at home and earn more by growing it yourself than by renting it out."

Grandma raised her eyebrows, feeling that she had found the best solution.

"I don't agree." Grandpa put down the cup in his hand heavily, "Xiao Li, don't listen to this nonsense. You can open your shop, we don't need you to serve us, and you don't need to farm."

"No, I have the final say in this matter." Grandma's voice became higher.

"Oh, grandma, aren't men the ones who have the final say in the family? How can you, a woman, say such things?" Wen Xin covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes filled with horror.

Grandma threw down her chopsticks and said, "You little girl..." Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Wen Xin.

"Grandma, why are you still scolding me? Didn't you say that men have the final say in the family and women have no say. What, are you saying that what you said was... that?"

"Puff..." Wen Xichen spat out a mouthful of soda onto the ground, and his grandmother was so angry that she slapped him hard on the back twice.

"Little bastard..."

"Xinxin, speak properly." Wen Chengzhi frowned and scolded in a low voice.

Wen Xin glanced at Wen Chengzhi, then looked at Wen Chenglin and Zhao Qiufang who were comforting grandma and Xi Ni, and his eyes turned cold.

"Okay, I'll talk properly."

She looked at her grandmother coldly and began to ask questions.

"Grandma, you asked my mom to come back and farm, but my mom is from Beijing and she doesn't know how to farm. What should I do?"

"If you don't know, then learn. Who is born knowing how to farm? Besides, she went to the countryside to learn how to farm."

Seeing that his grandfather was frowning, Wen Xin stopped him: "Grandpa, please watch from the side first. I have a lot to say today. If I say something inappropriate, you can speak later."

Grandpa nodded and tried hard to suppress his anger.

Wen Xin turned to look at his grandmother and continued asking questions.

"My mother is weak and can't do farm work. What should I do?"

"That's because you don't do enough work. If you work more, all your problems will be gone. You are spoiled every day and think you are a daughter of a wealthy family."

Wen Xin looked at Wen Chengzhi, who was cowardly lowering his head and pretending to be a coward, and then looked at Wen Chenglin, who was just pulling his grandmother's arm to signal her not to say anything, and he became completely angry.

"But then my mom will have to separate from my dad."

"Just break up, can't you live without a man?"

"But I'm still in school, so no one will supervise me."

"I was 17 years old and I cooked for the whole family and worked in the fields with a hoe on my shoulder. Why do you still need someone to serve you? Why don't you come back with your mother? Girls just need to learn a few words. What's the point of going to school?"

Wen Chenglin and Zhao Qiufang were busy trying to comfort grandma and ask her to stop talking. However, the more she was persuaded, the more embarrassed she became, with a look of smugness on her face.

Grandpa looked at Wen Xin quietly, wanting to see how his granddaughter would respond.

Wen Xin tried hard to suppress her anger. Looking at Wen Chengzhi, whose face fell but who still didn't say much, she felt disappointed.

This father, who is usually wise and brave, becomes extremely cowardly when facing grandma.

She cleared her throat, scanned the room, raised her voice, and spoke calmly and clearly.

"My dear elders, my grandmother just made a suggestion that my mother should go back to her hometown to serve my parents-in-law and farm for the family. I raised objections, and you all heard the answer my grandmother gave."

"There are three male parents here. Grandpa has made his position clear. So I want to ask the remaining two, what are your opinions?"

"Dad, you speak first."

Wen Chengzhi looked at his daughter's eyes, which were calm and yet a little distant and cold, and his heart suddenly felt empty.

"I...I respect your mother's opinion."

Wen Xin curled up the corners of his mouth and revealed a sarcastic smile, which made Wen Chengzhi feel uneasy.

"So, uncle, what do you think?"

Wen Chenglin's eyebrows jumped, and he looked back at Wen Xin: "Like your father, I respect your mother's opinion."

"What do you mean by her opinion? She has no say." Grandma got angry.

Wen Xin ignored her grandmother, turned around, and saw Li Yan looking at Wen Chengzhi with gratitude, and was speechless.

"Mom, look, now Dad and uncle have passed the buck to you." There was obvious sarcasm in Wen Xin's tone.

After hearing this, Li Yan turned to look at Wen Xin in surprise.

"Xinxin, what do you mean? I respect your mother's choice. Isn't that wrong?"

Wen Chengzhi was a little angry. No matter how he thought about it, what he said was good for his daughter-in-law, and he didn't stand on the side of the old mother, so why did his daughter still mock him?

There was still a sneer on Wen Xin's lips.

"Dad, you also know that my mom is gentle and only cares about you. Then answer me again. If my mom couldn't stand the pressure from grandma for you and chose to go back to her hometown to farm, what do you think?"

Wen Chengzhi was a little embarrassed and angry: "How could your mother......"

"Dad, answer me directly. If my mom chooses to go home and farm, what do you think?"

Wen Xin looked at Wen Chengzhi with a persistent and calm gaze, which made him feel flustered.

"I..." Wen Chengzhi looked at Li Yan, then at his aggressive grandmother, and was speechless for a moment.

The mockery in Wen Xin's eyes was even more unscrupulous:

"Look, Dad, you didn't actually express your opinion. You just passed the buck to my mom, leaving her to deal with grandma's troubles alone."

"Think about what Grandpa said just now. That was a real statement, clearly showing his disagreement. And you pushed your wife to the front and let her confront Grandma directly."

"If my mother withstands the pressure, then everything will be normal and you won't lose anything. If my mother doesn't withstand the pressure and goes home to farm, then my mother will suffer, your parents will benefit, and you will also gain a reputation for being filial."

"Look, respecting her opinion is a very important skill. You won't suffer any loss if you keep repeating it. If my mom has a brain attack, you can still take advantage of her."

"No matter how you calculate it, this is a win-win situation, and I also have a good reputation. It's really smart!"
