Chapter 708 Frozen 3 Feet
As it turned out, Chen Yu's original premonition was correct. His life had been terrible in recent times.
He has his own living habits and some minor cleanliness obsessions, and all of this conflict was fully aggravated when Zhong Xiaoqin became pregnant and her mother-in-law moved in.
He likes to be able to take care of his fish quietly after returning home from a busy day at work.
Like most housewives, Zhong's mother is a bit talkative, so Chen Yu is unable to relieve stress by killing time taking care of the fish, and he inevitably feels a little irritable.
Emotions are contagious. Zhong Xiaoqin is lively and clingy, and she desires communication and companionship more.
In the past, she was like a sticky note at work, being bossed around by her colleagues.
But since she became pregnant, all this has changed dramatically. No one tells her what to do. She was a little uncomfortable at first, but after she got used to it, she suddenly felt that the child was her lucky star, which brought about tremendous changes in her life.
Because the change in identity role triggers the retinal effect.
Simply put, when a person becomes interested in and concerned about an event or a group, he or she will have selective memory. He or she will pay the highest attention to the things he or she is interested in, and will subconsciously ignore some irrelevant news.
Strictly speaking, big data screening has also evolved from this aspect.
To put it simply, if you particularly like fishing, you will find that there are suddenly more people around you who like fishing, and there are more related topics.
Zhong Xiaoqin was a pregnant woman, so she instinctively paid attention to this aspect. Suddenly, she found that there were more pregnant women around her, and as a result, there were more topics in this regard.
Watch how the husband takes care of his wife, how carefully and patiently he does so.
In addition, people around her would talk about related topics from time to time. Listening to other people's pregnancy life made her feel more and more unbalanced about her own life. Especially after she tried to change but to no avail, she fell into a vicious circle.
With the influence of such negative emotions, many trivial matters will be magnified countless times. What's more, when the two got married, Chen Yu did not choose to hold a wedding due to many factors such as the economic situation.
Most girls have a dream of having a wedding, and Zhong Xiaoqin is no exception. Not having a wedding is a kind of loss for her. This loss is hidden in her heart. As her dissatisfaction grows, her thoughts become more and more extreme.
In order to avoid direct conflict with his mother-in-law, Chen Yu tries to go home later.
In Zhong Xiaoqin's view, this means that she doesn't care about herself. She didn't care that there was no wedding when she got married, and she still doesn't care that there was no one to accompany her after she became pregnant. The grievances and dissatisfaction in her heart are accumulating more and more, and all her emotions are like a powder keg that can explode completely with just a spark.
Chen Yu's work today was not going well because of an error in the interview with the newcomer, which resulted in the material being wasted and unusable.
When something like this happened, the boss was furious and scolded the entire department. As the editor-in-chief, even if it was not his fault, he had to find a way to remedy it and borrow interview materials from his colleagues to temporarily take over.
When Chen Yu returned home, Zhong's mother had just prepared dinner. She was actually dissatisfied with Chen Yu's attitude during this period, but under the current circumstances, she naturally would not add fuel to the fire. It happened that she got off work on time today, so she hurriedly invited Chen Yu to dinner.
However, what Chen Yu was most concerned about at the moment was not eating, but whether the program was broadcast smoothly. He stared at the TV intently and did not pay any attention to what his mother-in-law said.
Seeing this, Zhong Xiaoqin exploded instantly. Why? She was pregnant with his child, and he worked overtime every day and didn't know how to take care of herself. When her mother came to take care of her, he would get angry from time to time. Today was even more excessive. He didn't say a word when he came home. When his mother invited him to eat, he didn't even respond. Who owed him...
"Chen Yu, what do you mean? You always have a sullen face when you come home every day, as if someone owes you money..."
Watching the program on TV, Chen Yu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He didn't expect that something would go wrong in the end.
Zhong Xiaoqin saw that she had been talking for a long time, but Chen Yu just looked gloomy and didn't pay any attention to her. She snatched the remote control and turned off the TV and asked, "Chen Yu, are you deaf? My mother talked to you and you ignored her. Are you blind when she was busy?"
Seeing her daughter getting angry and Chen Yu sitting there in silence, Zhong's mother hurried over to smooth things over, "Chen Yu, you've been tired all day. Drink some water and take a rest before eating."
Chen Yu was in a very bad mood at this time, especially the words of his leader, which kept echoing in his mind, "If something goes wrong today, you all can't work." He was about to lose his job, so how could he have the mood to drink water?
Seeing his mother holding the cup of water, Chen Yu ignored her. Zhong Xiaoqin was about to get angry when her mother reached out and pressed her shoulder to stop her.
Seeing that Chen Yu was in a bad mood and might have encountered something, Zhong's mother quickly spoke to comfort him, "You know, other families like to watch the CCTV news broadcast, but we only watch the local news broadcast. Why? It's because of you. You are the editor-in-chief, and we are very proud of you."
While Zhong's mother was comforting her, she nudged her daughter, signaling her to show her concern as well.
Zhong Xiaoqin was not stupid, so she could tell that her mother wanted to ease the atmosphere. However, she was already very angry about Chen Yu's attitude. The more her mother tried to smooth things over, the more aggrieved she felt. Why? What's so great about you, Chen Yu, that you still have to make my mother look down on you?
"Chen Yu, you are our pride. All our neighbors know that you are the editor-in-chief of the TV station..."
Responsibility, responsibility, things that are usually something to be proud of, but at times like this, are so harsh. Especially during this period of time, the tremendous pressure, the unsatisfactory life, and the lack of understanding from family members, made Chen Yu explode directly.
"Can you please leave me alone for a while..."
The sudden shouting stunned Zhong Xiaoqin and her daughter. Chen Yu got up irritably. At this moment, he just wanted to wash his face, wake up, and stay alone in peace for a while.
"Chen Yu, what do you mean? Who are you after?"
"Xiaoqin, stop making noise..." Although Zhong's mother was dissatisfied with Chen Yu's attitude, she still hurried to stop her daughter.
"Mom, you..." Zhong Xiaoqin was so angry that her teeth itched.
Mother Zhong looked very worried. She had discovered that the two had many conflicts during this period. Now that her daughter was pregnant, she didn't want to cause unhappiness over trivial matters. She consoled her daughter softly, "Okay, okay, he's under a lot of work pressure and in a bad mood. Husband and wife should understand each other. Let's eat first..."
