Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

Chapter 12: The Bad Man in the Period Literature (12)

If Chen Liang knew what they were thinking, he would probably not be able to help but ridicule them.

The main reason they decided to leave this time was because they had received housing from their company. He and his wife had been working at the candy factory since they were seventeen, and had been diligently doing so for twenty years. Besides their jobs, they also had good relationships with their colleagues. After waiting in line for so many years, it was finally their turn.

The house is neither too big nor too small, with two bedrooms and a living room, which is just right for their family. They save most of their earnings, apart from the expenses of their two children and some money they give to their parents. When the children grow up, they can look for a bigger house, but they can't live with this family anymore.

Minor bumps and bruises were nothing to worry about, but as time went by, coupled with the lack of attitude from Chen's parents, the resentment between the couple grew. He finally understood Chen Xuyan's feelings, and was afraid that when he left, he would be no different from himself now.

The crying child always gets milk, and the more he doesn't want it, the less he will get.

The two children are already in elementary school and helped move things with some trepidation.

"Do you remember the house that mom and dad took you to see last week? We will live there from now on." Song Chunmei touched her two sons' heads.

"Will that be our home from now on, Mom?" asked the older Chen Nan.

"Yes, we will live there from now on." Chen Liang smiled.

"Really? We don't have to live with our cousin anymore?" Chen Bei was a little happy.

The couple looked at each other and felt that the child was really wronged by following them. Song Chunmei said, "Yes, we don't have to see them anymore."

Chen Nan and Chen Bei seemed to have cleared the haze in their hearts. They moved their things and left with their parents without looking back.

The neighbors watched them move in and out, and didn't ask much, but their eyes of curiosity kept lingering over them. Everyone had lived here for years, and those who were familiar with it knew what was going on. I'm afraid that this time, the Chen family boss is heartbroken and won't look back.

The old couple are already old, and I'm afraid they won't be able to live a peaceful life without the eldest brother to keep them in check. The other two are also troublesome, one is restless and the other is arrogant.

Everyone saw what Chen Wen did. Every time she came home from vacation with her youngest son, she treated the two children like grandchildren. Furthermore, she wasn't serious about her job, never considering a proper career. Instead, she slept until noon, waiting for the eldest daughter-in-law or her mother to cook for her. She went out shopping and dining every weekday, always returning with bags galore. Lately, a bearded man had been picking her up every day, and he didn't look like a reliable person.

Chen Yu was no better than Chen Wen.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family was able to endure for so many years because Chen Liang was an honest man after all. Her father was also an old acquaintance of theirs. He used to live in the same compound, but later moved out and moved to a new house. Every time she was wronged and couldn't bear it anymore, she would take her two children back to her parents' home. The family was all down-to-earth people, but she didn't expect Chen Liang to have such parents.

There is also a third son who went to the countryside early and his life or death is still unknown. I heard from the Zhou family in the yard that Chen Xuyan has married a country woman and has a child. It is estimated that he will never come back.

It is common to see people treated unfairly, but it is a different story to see it with your own eyes or hear about it.

Chen Liang made one trip and was ready to make another trip to take away all the bedding. In the future, there would be no need to have any contact unless necessary. Thinking that his family would finally be able to live a peaceful and quarrel-free life in the future, even though he was busy, Chen Liang's steps couldn't help but become lighter.

My wife and sons were cleaning the house. They had done a thorough cleaning the previous time, so it was already pretty clean. Now they were just tidying it up and looking for anything else they needed. They hadn't taken anything extra, as some of the things were shared at home, and now that they had a new home, they definitely had to buy some.

This time when he went back to get his things, Chen Liang also planned to take another look at the family's situation to avoid any disputes in the future. Even if there were, he didn't want to get involved.

Chen Xuyan arrived in Shanghai that morning and bought a lot of things, all of which he had already put on his social media account. He then went to Teacher Liu's home to tell him about his college admission. Teacher Liu had always been concerned about him. When the college entrance exam was reinstated, she had even written him a letter and sent him some hard-to-find materials. Although he didn't need them, he was still filled with gratitude. Teacher Liu was overjoyed, saying he was the best student this year and even asked him how he solved the final math problem.

Before leaving, he was reluctant to leave and was about to invite him to dinner, but Chen Xuyan said he had to go home for something. Teacher Liu didn't try to stop him and told him about the situation of the female student he had asked about. She was married and still working. I heard that her exam results this year were not very ideal, and I wondered if she would take the exam again next year.

Chen Xuyan promised Teacher Liu that he would visit again tomorrow. Teacher Liu then waved him off, saying that she would treat him well tomorrow and that he shouldn't bring so many things with him like he did today. She said that he would need to go to school and spend a lot of money. If he needed more money, she could write to him immediately. Her child also did well in the exams this year, but not as well as he did.

But Chen Xuyan still felt that Teacher Liu was being modest. Her son had been admitted to the best university in Shanghai, and most importantly, he was only sixteen years old. He was truly a little genius. He looked at Chen Xuyan with admiration, much like Chen Jianyan did. He was delighted when Chen Xuyan invited him to visit Beijing.

Chen Xuyan is on his way to Chen's house at this moment.

His memory was a bit hazy. He walked into the yard and stopped, still trying to figure out which house it was. The exterior walls had been painted, so naturally there were no previous markings. He had also planted some trees, and they were quite tall. He began to wonder if he should ask someone.

But Chen Liang recognized at a glance that this was his third brother, Chen Xuyan.

Although several years had passed, his appearance had barely changed. His face no longer looked frail, and with his hair cut short, revealing his full features, he looked even more like a child. He was the one who interacted most with Chen Xuyan in the Chen family. Before they got married, they slept in the same room, but after they got married, Chen Xuyan slept in the living room. His hair used to be so long that only two-thirds of his face was visible. Coupled with his personality, most people, even family members, only saw him with his head down.

"Chen Xuyan?" Chen Liang called him.

Chen Xuyan was stunned, and after a moment he called out, "Brother?"

"What's the matter with you coming back?"

"I came back to take a look and get my things." There was no nonsense between Chen Xuyan and Chen Liang.

"Where is the thing?"

Chen Xuyan mentioned a location.

"Wait, I'll bring it down to you later." Chen Liang patted his shoulder.

"Okay." Chen Xuyan heard that he had no intention of going upstairs.

Of course he knew what was happening in the Chen family at this moment. It would be best if he could avoid getting involved. Chen Liang would tell him what happened.
