Old Master Zhang was almost infuriated to death by his foolish son. How could his own son not believe anything he said as a father? Could it really be that everything he had done was wrong? Why wouldn’t his son think a bit more about why the woman before his eyes chose to be with him? Is it really that hard to see things a little more clearly?
"I really didn’t expect that to this day, you would still fail to understand and pretend in front of us. All of the repentful expressions you show, could they really be just an act? Do you even have a place for , your father, in your heart? What is the reason behind everything you do? Is it really so hard for you to speak the truth from your heart to , your father? Why do you treat this way when you have already chosen to return to this household? Can’t you accommodate , even just a little bit?"
Seeing that her father and husband were about to start arguing, Xia Jing knew that this was surely because of her. She couldn’t let such an incident happen over and over again. If it really ca to that, what place would she have in this family? And what would be the point of her continuing to live here?
"Dad, Zhentian, please stop arguing, both of you. I know that ultimately it’s my fault. No matter how close the two of you may be, this matter cannot be unrelated to ; it’s my fault. I will take responsibility for all the wrongs and face the consequences. I hope you won’t argue with each other over anymore. There really is no need.
After all, we are a family. Isn’t it better to live our lives together happily? We’ve finally co back ho. Why continue to argue? Wouldn’t it be better to create a harmonious family? Must we lose this harmony once more?
Zhentian, can’t you show a little courtesy when speaking to your father? He has waited for us for so many years; we’ve never fulfilled our filial duties by his side. Now that we have co back and talk to him like this, doesn’t it hurt his heart? Shouldn’t we, as children, show filial piety to our parents and love our own children? If we cause distress to our family mbers as soon as we return, then what is the point of coming back? Is it just to tornt our own family, letting them get hurt because of us again?
Dad, we’ve finally co back. I hope we can let go of the past, as we have all said we would, and not dwell on whatever happened. The most important thing is for us to live happily together. If we continue arguing over unnecessary things ti and again, how can we live happily?
Zhang Yichen felt that what his mother said made a lot of sense. The happy family he had longed for was within reach, so why had it turned out this way at this mont? Is wanting a simple family really that simple? Could it be that his parents would do nothing but argue? Why just after coming back, his father was already picking fights with his grandfather, putting him in a difficult position in the middle of their disputes. Is this really okay?
"Grandpa, Mom is right. Isn’t it good for all of us to live together happily? Why do we need to create such an unpleasant and awkward atmosphere? Everyone should have their own lifestyle; it’s just a matter of different choices. People are not exactly the sa; we should get used to the differences in others while preserving our own rits!
Now that Mom and Dad are back, none of you should argue anymore because of anyone. I just want a peaceful family; it may seem too simple for you, but it’s what I have longed for so many years. Could you please pity and let spend a peaceful New Year’s? For many years I haven’t had my parents’ company, now that you’re finally back, do you really have the heart to see the happiness I’ve longed for be destroyed again?"
Now hearing these words, Zhang Zhentian could not bear to argue with his father anymore. Moreover, his wife had already made it clear. Coming back was to honor one’s parents and love one’s children. If it was to upset his own parents and to continue hurting his child, then it would have been better not to choose to co back and cause harm. Then what would have been the point of returning? Does soone who repeatedly harms their family really deserve to continue living in it?
"Dad, I’m sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have argued with you, and I shouldn’t have been so stubbornly unrepentant. I am now truly repentant and apologize to you sincerely, for all the wrong things I have done. No matter how you choose to punish , I am willing to accept it.
A happy and joyful family must be maintained by our own hands. If there is no trust and no foundation for happiness among us, what is the point of living together?
If I have offended you in any way today, please forgive my young ignorance. I sincerely apologize to you!"
Zhang Zhentian bowed to his father as he spoke, feeling really sorry for him. After such difficulty in returning to this ho, he ended up causing harm to his father again. Why did he do such a thing? Was he really that unforgivable? He had never ant to hurt anyone in his life; he just wanted to cherish his beloved one, to protect her from hurt her whole life, but in the end, he chose to make everything so passive with his actions.
"Alright, you’re my son. Whatever you do or say is related to the education you received from as your father. Since you can say these words today, it only shows that my parenting has been insufficient. I won’t hold too much against you. All I hope is that from now on you will consider your own family’s feelings when you act and speak. I am your father, not your enemy. I cannot keep indulging you over and over like others do. All I want is for my son to be happy!
If you think a happy and joyful marriage is what you want, then go ahead boldly and without worry. I won’t stop you anymore. I believe that one day you will understand the painstaking efforts behind my words. Every sentence I said is for your own good, and I certainly wouldn’t harm you!"
