"Today, the party organization has decided that I can finally retire. Your mother has also applied to retire. In the future, the two of us will really have time to enjoy life. Although this is between the two of us, I still want to tell you.”Secretary Tang said slowly.
For a moment, the dining table was silent.
Other than Tong Tong, the others all looked surprised and stunned.
Especially Tang Ningzi. She immediately glanced at Lu Jinchong and observed his expression.
Lu Jinchong had been very calm the entire time. His expression was indifferent, and one could not tell whether he was happy or angry.
However, Tang Ning 'an and her wife's expressions changed, and their expressions were a little strange.
"It's good that you're retired. You're all at this age, so you can have a good rest. I can also put my planned trip on the agenda. I can also take a long vacation with the tour group.”Tang Ningwu cleared her throat and broke the silence. She pretended to be relaxed as she smiled.
"That's easy for you to say. If Dad really steps down, what will happen to Ning An?”Tang Ningzi's sister-in-law, Chen Li, couldn't keep up the pretense anymore. She couldn't help but speak angrily.
The expressions of the other members of the Tang family instantly turned ugly, but they did not say anything because Chenli was their daughter-in-law.
Tang Ning 'an, who had always been very filial to her parents, did not stop her this time.
So Chen Li continued,"Dad, when you were in power in the past, you were afraid of arousing suspicion and refused to help Ning An. At that time, I could understand. After all, you also wanted to go to the next level. But you're about to retire. Can't you think for Ning An? Until now, he's only a small section chief. Without you in his position, it's impossible for him to have any great achievements in this life.”
Secretary Tang's expression was a little ugly. He said in a deep voice,"So what if I'm a small section chief? I've also been a small county head step by step until I'm where I am today. He already has a much higher starting point than me. Even if I manage it for him, he must have the ability to do it. If he doesn't have the ability to climb to that position, he will only fall miserably.”
"You didn't even give him a chance. How do you know that he doesn't have the ability?”Chenli shouted.
Secretary Tang and Mr. He's faces turned even uglier, and they couldn't help but put down their chopsticks.
Tang Ningzi wanted to say something, but when she saw her sister shaking her head at her, she could only purse her lips and hold it in.
Perhaps Tang Ning 'an also felt that Chen Li's words were a little overboard, so she scolded with a cold face,"Alright, we're eating.”
"What do you mean I won't say anything?" Tang Ning 'an's words completely infuriated Chen Li.
She put down her chopsticks with a bang and shouted at Tang Ning 'an,""Tang Ning 'an, feel your own conscience. On the surface, I've married into your Tang family and enjoyed boundless glory, but how many benefits have I received from your Tang family all these years? Not to mention the help in my career, even my life isn't much better. It's worse than my friends who married ordinary people. She didn't even dare to buy a slightly more expensive piece of clothing, afraid that people would say that she was taking bribes and perverting the law. Even so, she didn't stop others from talking. Instead, she had suffered. What kind of life had she been living all these years?”
"Wow…" Tong Tong cried out loud. He was probably frightened by his mother.
Secretary Tang was so angry that his face turned even uglier. He suddenly clutched his chest and was on the verge of collapsing.
Tang Ningwu and Tang Ningzi were shocked. They quickly ran over to support him and asked,""Dad, what's wrong?"
Lu Jinchong quickly stood up and dragged Secretary Tang along.""Do you have a heart-saving pill? Hurry up and give him one.”
Teacher He's face was pale, and her whole body was trembling as she went to get a bottle of medicine. With the help of Auntie Feng, she fed it to Secretary Tang.
Secretary Tang's expression was slightly better now. Lu Jinchong helped Secretary Tang to the bedroom to rest.
Tang Ning 'an did not feel good seeing her father like this, so she started arguing with Chenli outside.
Chenli looked at her son crying his heart out and then at her father-in-law. Her husband was still arguing with her. In a fit of anger, she carried her son and left the house without even saying goodbye.
By the time Tang Ningzi and the others came out, Chen Li had already left.
"Mom, I'm sorry. I don't have the face to stay any longer. When Dad wakes up, apologize to him for me.”Tang Ning 'an said to Teacher He guiltily.
Teacher He did not say a word and watched him leave with a dark face. He was probably angry with his son and daughter-in-law.
Tang Ningzi held her mother's shoulder and comforted her,""Mom, Sister and I are still here.”
Teacher He patted the back of her hand and sighed."Your sister will be fine at home. She hasn't eaten well. You and Jinchong go back first! I've made a fool of myself."
"Mom, what are you saying? How can I go back in this situation?”Tang Ningzi immediately said.
Mr. He shook his head and didn't want to explain. He repeated the matter of asking them to go back.
Tang Ningwu walked over and gently said to Tang Ningzi,""Ning Zi, listen to mom. If there's nothing at home, I'll call you if there's anything. You know that Dad and Mom care about their reputation. It's not good for you to stay.”
Tang Ningzi immediately understood. Her parents probably didn't want to embarrass themselves in front of Lu Jinchong anymore. So, he agreed to leave and let Tangning take good care of them.
After getting into the car, Tang Ningzi started to wipe her tears.
Lu Jinchong could not persuade her. After all, he had just become a son-in-law not long ago. He could only take a tissue and wipe her eyes.
"Do you regret it now?" Tang Ningzi murmured as she wiped her tears.
Lu Jinchong was stunned and could not react in time.""What do you mean?"
Tang Ningzi smiled bitterly and removed the tissue,""The main reason why you married me in a flash back then was because of my father's identity, right? However, I didn't expect that my father would retire before I could get any benefits. Moreover, you've seen it for yourself today. Even if you don't retire, you won't get any benefits. Even my brother isn't willing to help you.”
"So you still think that I married you because of your father's identity?”Lu Jinchong's expression darkened as he asked unhappily.
Tang Ningzi lowered her head and smiled bitterly.”
Lu Jinchong's expression turned even uglier. He ordered the chauffeur in front in a deep voice,""Drive."
Tang Ningzi was frightened by his cold voice. She quickly looked up and saw his cold side profile.
Lu Jinchong was quite scary when he was angry. He was imposing without being angry, and his domineering aura could not be blocked.
However, Tang Ningzi couldn't understand why he was angry. Did she say something wrong?
If he said something wrong, he could just explain. Why would he be angry?
When the two of them returned home, Fu Xiaomin had already returned.
When she saw that they had returned, she happily welcomed them and smiled at Lu Jinchong. She did not expect Lu Jinchong to ignore her and go straight upstairs.
"What happened to him?" Fu Xiaomin asked curiously.#
