Phi-Fic Chapter 617 The Real Heroine
Chapter 617 The Real Heroine
Liu Meilan was sitting next to her parents and was shocked to hear her mother's words. This is the heroine, the real feminist - with a clear mind, outstanding abilities, and no regrets after making a choice, and working hard to manage life.
She can balance family and career, and she doesn't care about a man's guilt.
After listening to this, Chief of Staff Liu looked at his wife with eyes full of admiration and curiosity. He is a tough guy outside, but in front of his wife, he is always the man who will blush and his heart beat fast when his sweetheart asks him, "Do you have a partner?"
"I will always be proud of you." Chief of Staff Liu replied with a smile.
Professor Xie smiled proudly, "Of course!"
A man’s guilt may not necessarily make Professor Xie happy, because behind the guilt is her grievance.
But as long as she wants to do something well and meaningful, Professor Xie does not feel wronged.
She doesn't think that raising children is for the purpose of retaining the chief of staff, nor does she think that doing well in her career is for her husband or her in-laws. Everything is for herself.
In Professor Xie, Liu Meilan saw a very complete female personality with infinite charm.
Tang Xiaoyu, who was standing next to him, quietly gave a thumbs up and said to Liu Meilan, "I learned a lot from hearing your parents' conversation just now! Your parents have been married for so long, but I can still see love in your dad's eyes! That kind of appreciation and admiration for his partner that comes from the bottom of his heart."
Tang Xiaoyu was a very observant person. Her parents had a very good relationship, but it was just mutual support. There was no love and admiration between men and women anymore.
She had read a lot of chicken soup for marriage articles such as how to keep love fresh, which talked about creating little surprises and the like.
But the examples of Chief of Staff Liu and Professor Xie made Tang Xiaoyu realize that those were all irrelevant.
The secret to keeping the relationship fresh between husband and wife is to be praised and admired by your partner, which is more attractive. Women don’t need men to feel guilty, so they won’t complain about themselves, but will be self-reliant and strong, which is the most attractive.
Liu Meilan nodded. "This is the charm of women. It will not fade with age. We are still too superficial!"
"We are more than superficial. I feel like we are not even worthy of carrying Professor Xie's shoes!" Tang Xiaoyu sighed, "Before, I was worried that the girl in my belly would be treated differently. In fact, as long as I am strong enough, I can be my daughter's support. Why should I worry?"
Liu Meilan agreed and nodded quickly, "Yes! Was my previous worry just groundless? Mrs. Chen has two daughters, one of whom was admitted to Northwestern Polytechnical University. Not long after she started school, she was selected to join a confidential project because of her good grades. She is so promising, how can she be worse than a boy?"
Tang Xiaoyu smiled, and there was more spirit in his bright eyes, "Yes! A good role model is right in front of us, we must learn from it."
Liu Meilan agreed, "Yes!"
After thinking all this through, Tang Xiaoyu's appetite improved at noon today. He ate half a bowl more of rice, and his originally haggard face now became full of energy.
After the engagement, according to local customs, they could live together. Wang Miaoxiang and Liu Yiwen returned to Liu's house that day.
As for Doctor Wang, he had already bought a yard nearby, with three main rooms and two side rooms on both sides. The yard was large enough for Doctor Wang to live in. Even if Wang Miaoxiang and Liu Yiwen came back, there were side rooms for them to live in.
As a retired doctor who was rehired by the hospital, Dr. Wang does not work long hours. He sees 30 patients in the morning and afternoon, and leaves work when he is done.
Now he is playing chess with Grandpa Liu. Nowadays there is square dancing, but the two old people don’t dance square dancing, but practice Tai Chi.
After the engagement, Liu Meilan felt that Liu Yiwen was obviously different from before, no wonder he wanted to start a family.
Without a family, life always feels a bit insecure.
With the bond of home, people will become much more stable.
Liu Yiwen asked: "Where's Mom?"
Liu Meilan replied: "Mom and Dad will go back to the military family compound to spend time alone. If you don't have anything important to do, don't disturb them."
Liu Yiwen raised his eyebrows, "I want to get together at home tonight!"
"Didn't we hold an engagement ceremony for you guys at noon?" Liu Meilan asked back, "It's rare for mom and dad to go out on a date, let's not disturb them. You, hang out with sister Miao Xiang and go out for a walk. I'm at home!"
Liu Yiwen smiled and said, "Since there's no family gathering tonight, should I take Miao Xiang to the city?"
"Go ahead and take Sister Miao Xiang out to play." Liu Meilan said with a smile, "Grandpa is here with me! I'll keep him company."
"Okay, let's go then." Liu Yiwen said with a smile, "Miao Xiang, pack your things, let's go to the city, to the house I bought!"
At home, I feel a little embarrassed to think about doing something in the evening.
When they got to the city and the door was closed, it was just the two of them, young people. How great!
Wang Miaoxiang had already changed out of her engagement clothes and put on a light pink dress. "Aren't we going to have dinner with our family tonight?"
Liu Yiwen replied, "No, my parents are on a date, and grandpa doesn't eat much tonight. Meilan and Linghua also have things to do, let's go back to the city, and I'll take you to the movies."
"Okay!" Wang Miaoxiang smiled shyly, turned around and went back to the house to pack her things.
After a while, Wang Miaoxiang packed up, picked up her bag, said goodbye to the two grandfathers, and went to the city together.
Linghua carried a small bucket and said, "Cousin, let's go fishing."
Liu Meilan glanced at him and said, "You can't sit still at all!"
"It's a rare two-day holiday, so of course we should have more fun." Linghua took Liu Meilan's arm, "Cousin, let's go. I see you ate a lot at noon, so move more now, otherwise you will become fat."
Liu Meilan chuckled, "Okay, stop pulling me. I can get up by myself."
On the way, I met Wang Nuannuan, Xu Chongyang, and Wang Liwen who were also going to the beach.
"Sister Liwen, are you going to the beach too?" Liu Meilan asked with a smile, looking at Wang Liwen who was wearing a big sun hat.
Wang Liwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I don't want to go, but these two little ones do. My mom helps me take care of the kids, and I take them to the beach."
"Sister Meilan should go too. We will definitely catch a lot of good things today." Wang Nuannuan said with a smile. If there were really a lot of seafood, she could keep some for cooking and sell the rest, then she would have a lot of pocket money.
Liu Meilan chuckled, "That's not necessarily true."
There were so many people going to the beach that Liu Meilan felt her scalp tingling. "Here, we can probably only pick up some clams. We should go somewhere else."
"Sister Meilan, where do you want to go?" Wang Nuannuan asked eagerly, "To the northeast, there should be good stuff there."
So they walked to the northeast of the island.
They thought there were fewer people here, but when they arrived, they found that there were more people than on the west side of the island.
A parent of a student shouted, "Teacher Wang, what are you guys still standing there for? Come over and dig them up, they are all good stuff."
