Back to the 70s: My Wife is Both Fierce and Crazy

Chapter 216 Title ran away from home

Nan Lichen didn't stand on ceremony with him. "Okay, when Bai Jing comes back, I'll have Xiao Xue prepare some new ones for her." They were all family.

Jiang Chen didn't refuse; he was happy to have another person help him take care of Xiao Jing anyway.

"Well, thank you for your help."

"We're all brothers, don't be so formal. By the way, have you eaten yet?"

"No, I came here specifically to have dinner."

Upon hearing this, Nan Lichen chuckled, "Alright then, I'll cook two more dishes. Go and call the other two over."

Even without any elders at home, it's still comfortable to gather together.

"it is good."

Jiang Chen and the other three gathered together again, but Song Dongling was not there, nor was Wei Huiyan.

This was a rare moment of indulgence for the four of them.

"Jiang Chen, does Bai Jing know you're going back?" Xiao Wei, being a man of many experiences, had many worries.

"Yes, I told her." He appreciated their kindness, "But you'll have to take extra care of her next time she comes back, since I only come back a few times a year."

Although he had someone to worry about at home, his work required him to be by her side all the time, so he could only try his best to protect her.

"Look at what you're saying. What kind of relationship do we have? Your wife is like our sister. We'll definitely take good care of her for you," Shao Qing immediately said upon hearing Jiang Chen's words.

Although he was the youngest of the four, he wasn't truly ignorant. "With my wife here, she can definitely take good care of Bai Jing." Ever since his wife and Bai Jing became sworn sisters, he had treated Bai Jing like a younger sister.

Nan Lichen smiled and chimed in, "That's right, my wife and your wife are very close. Don't worry, she'll take good care of you." He then raised his glass, "Let's have a drink."

Listening to them talk about their wives, Xiao Wei's face turned somewhat ugly. There was nothing he could do; it was just that his wife didn't get along with everyone else.

He was in a difficult position, but he knew it wasn't his brothers' fault, but his wife's.

“You all know my wife’s personality; she definitely can’t take care of her younger brother and sister-in-law. But don’t worry, she still has me as her older brother. I won’t let her suffer any grievances.”

Xiao Wei is also a straightforward person and knows where his weaknesses lie.

Hearing this, Shao Qing couldn't help but say, "I'm not trying to criticize you, but your father-in-law's family should also be dealt with. Don't think that associating with those people will end well. If things go wrong, they might be reduced to ashes. You're also in the system, so you know that kind of relationship can't last."

He genuinely cared for his brother and didn't want him to ruin his future because of his wife's family.

"You too, you've finally climbed to where you are now, you can't let anything else drag you down. There are countless people watching you, if you don't keep a close eye on yourself, you'll suffer a lot later."

These words may be harsh, but they make sense.

Actually, everyone understands this principle, it's just that Xiao Wei himself can't bring himself to be ruthless.

"Alright, that's enough. Do you think Xiao Wei is less perceptive than you? He must have his reasons for doing this." Nan Lichen immediately cut off Shao Qing's words as he got more and more carried away.

Jiang Chen patted Xiao Wei on the shoulder, saying, "Hesitation will only lead to trouble. Not to mention yourself, you can't just watch your uncles and the others get implicated." He spoke from the bottom of his heart.

The Xiao family is a large family, and all the members are successful. But the more successful a family is, the more it values ​​the relationships between its members.

Wei Huiyan not only didn't get along with the wives of those men, but she also didn't get along with the sisters-in-law of the Xiao family.

She always felt that the Xiao family looked down on her.

But she didn't consider that if he truly looked down on her, why would he have married her? And why would he have agreed to let Xiao Wei take her to move out of his home when she couldn't get along with her family?

She always says that her in-laws are biased, favoring the eldest son's family. But she doesn't see how good the eldest son's husband is at getting along with people. He may not be liked by everyone, but he treats everyone with kindness.

She, on the other hand, showed no compassion whatsoever, yet left others feeling awkward. Those less fortunate than her tried to suppress their feelings, while those more capable accused others of looking down on her.

I really don't know what's going on in her head.

It wasn't like this when we first met, and I don't know how it turned out this way.

Xiao Wei looked miserable.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing and I'll teach you." He was also suffering in silence.

We can't just cut off her ties with her family, sigh.

If he could, he would like to leave this place.

"This time there's a chance to leave City A, I'll give it a try." He knew she couldn't change her mind about staying close to her parents' home; what if they left?
"What?" Upon hearing this, Shao Qing became anxious. "You're currently the foreman of the Political and Secretarial Office. Does this mean the higher-ups want to transfer you to a different position?" They were from the same administrative region, so they knew roughly the same things.

"Where is that? I've never heard of it."

Nan Lichen's development path is different from theirs, so he doesn't know about this. "If the opportunity is good, we can give it a try." It's a good time to tidy up the small house.

Jiang Chen didn't voice his opinion, after all, he knew very little about this area.

"Yes, it's D City. If I go there, I'll probably start as a deputy director." Xiao Wei thought of his conversation with his superior. He was the youngest deputy director, and if he really went there, the work would probably be no easier than it is now.

"Deputy director?" Shao Qing exclaimed in surprise again. "Wow, you've been promoted!" He was envious.

"Unfortunately, I didn't have that opportunity," he said with some regret.

Xiao Wei rolled her eyes at him. "Come on, it's great here. It's close to home, and your wife doesn't cause any trouble. Isn't it nice to live a peaceful life? Do you really think it's so easy to establish yourself in a strange place?"

He knew that Shao Qing was just saying it casually; if he were actually asked to go, Shao Qing would probably be the first to object.

"That's right, it's none of your business. Go play somewhere else and focus on giving your uncle a grandson." Shao Qing only has one son, unlike them, where each family has several sons.

Of course, Jiang Chen is an exception. His family used to be quite large, but now he's the only one left in the Jiang family.

Nan Lichen: "If you think it's good for your development over there, then go for it. I heard D City is more peaceful than here." He was a member of the Red Guards, so he had a wider network of inside information.

Whether things are chaotic or not is up to the Red Guards.

Jiang Chen then spoke up, "That's the national granary, and people there mainly work there. Life is better than here. Of course, it's up to you to choose."

They discussed and explored until late at night before finally leaving.

However, Xiao Wei ultimately decided to leave City A with his wife and children.

Everyone was happy for Xiao Wei, at least his life would be much more peaceful from now on.

When they parted, Xiao Wei apologized to Jiang Chen, and also apologized on behalf of his wife's younger sister.

He knew what Wei Huixin had said to Bai Jing, but he hadn't found an opportunity to apologize to Bai Jing.

Jiang Chen left City A and boarded the train back to City J.

As he watched the scenery recede into the distance, he looked forward to his next return.

In City B, Bai Jing and Team Leader Lin spent several days exploring an area but found nothing concrete. Bai Jing also had to use Xiao Jin; there was no other way, as this matter was of great importance and she had to rely on him.

Bai Jing felt heartbroken watching her money slip away every day.

She felt she needed to make some money.
