Chen Feng had already decided to work in the capital and to set up a family in the capital with Jiajia.
Qiao Zijin knew only about the former situation, not about the latter. Knowing that her son had already made a decision and that she had no way of changing his mind, Qiao Zijin came up with a plan.
She would go to the capital. It didn’t mean much to her. Hadn’t she yearned to settle down in the capital while she was younger?
At that time, she didn’t have the capabilities or the money to do so and could only return to Ping Cheng in shame.
But now, things were different. Even if she didn’t have the ability to do so, she had a son who did.
Her son had already graduated, and it was a society for the young now. It was better to leave the hard work to the young people.
As Chen Feng’s mother, she would stay at home and take good care of herself. When Chen Feng returned home, he would also have a meal ready for him. In that way, she would be helping Chen Feng.
With that thought, Qiao Zijin could no longer hold it in and told Chen Feng that she was going to move to the capital to take care of him.
The moment he heard that Qiao Zijin wanted to go to the capital to take care of him, Chen Feng didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. Who was the one taking care of the other?
To be honest, even when he was with Jiajia, Chen Feng was the one taking care of Jiajia. Since he could take care of an ‘outsider’ like Jiajia, it was only right for him to take care of his own mother.
Unfortunately, Qiao Zijin was not an average person, and it didn’t make sense to use average logic in her situation.
Chen Feng was utterly annoyed with how Qiao Zijin always stirred up trouble, and he was actually afraid when he heard that Qiao Zijin wanted to live with him.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Chen Feng rejected it. Qiao Zijin had better remain in Ping Cheng. After all, he already had a house in Ping Cheng.
If Qiao Zijin were to go to the capital, she would have to stay with him in a small and cramped rented apartment. There was no way it would be as comfortable as living in the large apartment in Ping Cheng.
The moment Qiao Zijin heard that she would have to suffer, she hesitated. “Feng Feng, you’re an overseas returnee. You’re so brilliant. Your job must pay you well. I think that you’ll definitely be able to buy a house in another few years. Besides, no young lady will agree to marry you if you don’t have a house. Once you buy a house, will I be able to live there with you?”
Qiao Zijin was willing to wait it out since she would have to suffer if she were to head over now. She was in no hurry.
She would simply wait for her son to settle down in the capital and purchase a house of his own before she moved over.
Chen Feng was speechless at how shameless Qiao Zijin was.
His mom knew that it would be terribly hard on him, even financially, when he first moved to the capital. So, his mom had simply chosen not to share that burden with him and was not moving over now.
But his mom was no fool either. She knew that he wouldn’t remain in such dire circumstances forever. Once his situation improved and stabilized, she would definitely move over to enjoy the benefits and comfort that her son would be able to provide.
Enjoying the fruits of others’ labor. How had his mom thought of that?
Didn’t his mom feel the least bit embarrassed to show such a shameless side to her son?
Did she?
Of course not.
Most importantly, Qiao Zijin had seen Ding Jiayi use such tactics against Qiao Nan too many times, and every time, Qiao Nan had always satisfied Ding Jiayi.
In Qiao Zijin’s view, this was allowed and was also a common situation in their family.
Once again confirming that his mother wasn’t an ‘ordinary’ mother, Chen Feng no longer wished to say anything. “Mom, the environment in the capital is bad, and the traffic is congested. It’s quite troublesome. It’ll be better for you to remain in Ping Cheng. I’ll continue giving you a living allowance every month. If you need any more money for other expenses, you can just let me know. I’ll transfer more money to you.”
Chen Feng had never wanted Qiao Zijin to move over, and besides, Qiao Zijin’s performance wasn’t just ordinarily poor. It would be strange if Chen Feng agreed to allow his mother to stay by his side.
“Feng Feng, are you abandoning your mother?”
Qiao Zijin couldn’t help but ask sourly, “Do you think I’m going to the capital for myself? It’s all for you. Your dad’s gone and you only have me left. If I’m not by your side, who will help you once you get married?”
Besides, wouldn’t Chen Feng have to rely on his mother to raise his child once his wife gave birth?
Qiao Zijin hadn’t explicitly said all these, but Chen Feng already understood her thoughts.
Chen Feng felt a shiver run down his spine. If he were to have a child with Jiajia, he would much rather hire a nanny than let his mother raise the child.
What if his child turned out just like his mom? In that case, he would rather not have any children with Jiajia at all. “Mom, you don’t have to worry about that. I’ll resolve those problems myself.”
Qiao Zijin had better forget about going to the capital. There was no room for discussion in this matter.
After all, Chen Feng was still settling down in the capital and didn’t have much himself.
A ‘smart’ person like Qiao Zijin understood that it was still too early for her to move over. Why would she fall out with her son over something that would happen in the future?
It was better for her to simply agree now. Once her son’s career took off, she would have a house there once she moved over.
She didn’t believe that Chen Feng would chase her out if she were to move over.
Chen Feng could tell that Qiao Zijin had not truly agreed to stay in Ping Chen instead of moving to the capital.
In the future, he wouldn’t be alone. There would still be Jiajia. As such, Chen Feng hid nothing from Jiajia and told her everything about what had happened in Ping Cheng. He was whipped for Jiajia.
Upon hearing Qiao Zijin’s plans and attitude, Jiajia flared up.
Not only did Jiajia feel bad for Qiao Nan but also her boyfriend.
How could Qiao Zijin be so selfish? She had never even done anything for her son, and yet, she was waiting to enjoy the fruits of his labor. It was infuriating!
“Chen Feng, I’ll make myself clear. You know very well about the relationship between me and my auntie. There’s no way I’ll ever stay in the same house as her. And your mom had better not think of even touching my child in the future. I’ll hate you if our child turns out like your mom.”
As she said that, Jiajia nearly brought up the topic of a breakup.
Zhai Hua had never agreed to this relationship to begin with. No matter how outstanding or considerate Chen Feng was, he wasn’t a good choice as a husband.
A good husband didn’t stop a mother-in-law from stirring up trouble.
Often, couples split up not because of differences between them but irreconcilable differences between daughter-in-law and mother-in-law.
Qiao Zijin wasn’t a good daughter-in-law, and she definitely wouldn’t be a good mother-in-law.
