Parents' Love: My Childhood Sweethearts with Jiang Weidong

"Dad, let's just get rid of this cabinet. Jianhua and I can't lift it together."

Looking at the dilapidated cabinet in the car, which was older than him, Jiang Weidong frowned, looking troubled.

"You spendthrift! This thing is still usable!" Jiang Defu glared at him, then shouted into the house, "Weimin, Xiao Meng, come out and help!"

"Hey, here we come."

Two men with white towels on their heads came out of the house. Jiang Weimin wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked somewhat refined, but his face was covered in patches of black and white, making him look quite comical.

Meng Tianzhu only took off his military jacket; the white shirt underneath was already stained.

Lin Wangshu couldn't help but chuckle, and Xiao Xingxing covered her mouth and giggled as well.

Jiang Weimin covered his face awkwardly upon seeing this. He was so embarrassed. He was a teacher, after all, and his father was treating him like a laborer.

Meng Tianzhu, on the other hand, didn't feel uncomfortable at all. After greeting Jiang Weidong and Lin Wangshu, he smiled and asked Jiang Defu, "Dad, is there anything else you need me to do?"

Jiang Defu nodded in satisfaction, then glanced at Jiang Weidong and said, "Look at Xiao Meng, and then look at you."

Jiang Weidong had nothing to say. Meng Tianzhu was an impeccable son-in-law, and he didn't complain even though his father-in-law was causing trouble.

"How about I come inside and find you a white towel?" Lin Wangshu said to Jiang Weidong with a smile.

Hearing Lin Wangshu's teasing words, Jiang Weidong gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you."

In the end, no matter how unwilling Jiang Weidong was, he obediently let Lin Wangshu put the white towel on him under Jiang Defu's intimidation.

Zheng Jianhua showed no resistance. Seeing that it was Yafei who put it on him, he happily bent down.

Yafei sized up the men and couldn't help but clapp her hands, saying, "Dad, you're something else! Several government officials are here to be your movers. You have quite the influence!"

Jiang Defu snorted smugly, his tail practically wagging in the air, "I don't care what their official rank is, here they all have to work for me."

As he spoke, he seemed to have caught sight of something and immediately shouted, "Wei Dong, you lift this one, and Xiao Meng, you lift this corner, both of you be slow!"

Then Wang Zhenbiao and Teacher Ge strolled over. Hearing the commotion, Wang Zhenbiao couldn't help but say to Jiang Defu, "Old Jiang, not bad, you still have the demeanor of a great general from back then."

Jiang Defu smiled modestly and said, "It's alright."

"Why didn't you hire some helpers? Moving is such tiring work, and you're making the kids do it. You really don't know how to be considerate of people."

Wang Zhenbiao couldn't stand his smug look and deliberately mocked him.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Defu curled his lip in displeasure and said righteously, "As a veteran cadre, I am simply living a frugal life. How can I expect to hire laborers just to move?"

As she spoke, she glanced at Wang Zhenbiao, implying, "He looks like a capitalist!"

"You..." Realizing the meaning behind his words, Wang Zhenbiao was so angry that he pointed at him but couldn't speak.

Jiang Defu wasn't finished yet, and continued shaking his head vigorously: "There's nothing I can do, it's because I have so many sons and sons-in-law, unlike some people whose sons aren't around, but are thousands of miles away."

Wang Zhenbiao knew he was talking about himself, and snorted, "As parents, I don't ask my children to be by my side to fulfill their filial duties, as long as they are successful."

His son graduated from Peking University and is now pursuing a PhD in the United States; he can certainly be considered an outstanding individual.

Jiang Defu chuckled and nodded, saying, "What you said is true, but it would be even better if our children were both successful and could stay by our side, wouldn't it?"

Looking at his handsome sons and sons-in-law, Wang Zhenbiao was so envious he couldn't speak.

Jiang Defu must have had incredible luck; his whole family is in the military, covering the army, navy, and air force, and they're all young and promising.

Even Jiang Weimin, who was the least successful among them, was a teacher, and his wife was a police officer.

Seeing that Wang Zhenbiao was silent, Jiang Defu felt relieved and then smiled as he pulled the twins over, "Quickly, say hello to your Grandpa Wang."

Little Star was quite perceptive; at that moment, she joined her brother in obediently greeting Wang Zhenbiao, "Hello, Grandpa Wang."

"Okay, okay." Wang Zhenbiao's voice softened considerably. Looking at the two dolls that were almost identical, he longed to take them home.

Seeing Jiang Defu's desire to show off, Wang Zhenbiao bent down and touched the two children's faces, "So beautiful, thankfully they don't look like your grandfather."

After saying that, ignoring Jiang Defu's angry glare, he pulled Ge Meixia away, humming a little tune.

Once the two figures were out of sight, Yafei smiled and said to Jiang Defu, "Dad, are you finally satisfied with your vanity now?"

Jiang Defu stood with his hands behind his back, a smirk playing on his lips. "Pretty much."

Then he said to the group of people who were moving things, "Hurry up, your uncle is waiting for you."

Old Ding's son wasn't as filial as him, and he disappeared when they moved. They've known each other for so many years, so it's okay for him to lend his son and son-in-law to him.

Jiang Weidong's breath hitched. And what's more, his dad's never going to stop!

Lin Wangshu looked at Jiang Weidong, who was covered in sweat, with heartache in her eyes. She opened her mouth, wanting to suggest that she hire a few helpers for her uncle.

Yafei retorted bluntly, "No, Dad, you're really treating them like animals."

At this moment, An Jie came out of the house and glared at Jiang Defu. "No need. Dehua just called and said they've already hired some helpers."

Then he said to the four people who were struggling to move the things, "Put them down quickly. Don't listen to your dad. He's getting senile. Let him move them himself. You come in and rest."

The group looked at each other, but in the end decided to listen to An Jie.

Yafei squeezed Zheng Jianhua's arm and said with concern, "Aren't you tired? Don't you know how to use less strength? Anyway, I have my second brother here."

Zheng Jianhua squinted his eyes in enjoyment, and upon hearing this, he smiled and squeezed her hand, "I'm fine, this little bit of work is nothing."

Hearing this from the side, Jiang Weidong's eyes flashed with a fierce light. What kind of sister was she? She was so biased towards outsiders.

But then a pair of soft little hands took his hand. Looking down, he saw Little Star looking up at him. "Daddy, are your arms sore? I'll massage them for you in a bit."

Jiang Weidong smiled and picked her up in his arms. "It is a bit much, thank you for troubling our little star."

Lin Wangshu held Xiao Taiyang's hand and watched with a smile as the family walked happily into the house.

Jiang Defu was left staring at the furniture on the truck, furious but unable to speak out, wondering if it was too late for him to ask Lao Ding for help.
