Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1456: Chapter 1457: Old Qi Lays Down the Law

Seeing that Cheng Su had made arrangements, Qi Taiguo asked a few more questions about the kitchen. When Deng Weixia returned, he took him outside and talked for a long time, naturally conveying what Cheng Su had said.

Deng Weixia was immensely grateful after hearing it and repeatedly said, "I will definitely not fear hardship or fatigue, and will work hard."

Qi Taiguo looked at him and said, "Your Deng family, the burden now falls on your shoulders. What’s done is done, now you even have kids, so there’s no other choice. Let me tell you, Weixia, if you don’t stand up, there’s no future for the Deng family. Even if you don’t think of yourself, think about the two little ones. You’ve let your elder brother down already, you can’t let his son down too."

Deng Weixia’s expression changed.

"You must educate the kids well and carefully nurture them, only then is there hope for the future. If you let them run wild, their lives will be ruined." Qi Taiguo continued, "As both a father and uncle, don’t play favorites, don’t let the children resent you in the future."

"I know, cousin," Deng Weixia bowed his head in shame.

"And as for Liu Wenjing..." Qi Taiguo pursed his lips and said, "The big mistake has been made, and now there’s nothing you can do. A woman going this far is really something. You know how your aunt is; she will certainly not be kind to her. You’re the intermediary, you must set your position right and protect her more, and not let down someone who followed you and even gave you a son."

Deng Weixia tensed up again.

"Your nature is weak, you must change that in the future. When you need to be strong, you must be strong. Remember, you’re the only support for the Deng family. If you don’t stand up, the Deng family will be destroyed!" Qi Taiguo said.

"Moreover, your cousin-in-law is kind-hearted. Her willingness to help you is your blessing, don’t take it for granted or squander your fortune, like your former cousin-in-law..." Qi Taiguo mentioned Zhang Jisheng, a shadow passed over his eyes, and said, "You’ve surely heard about his situation. We helped him a lot back then. If you imitate him, always wanting more and complaining about hardship, tell me now, go find a living elsewhere, don’t feel wronged in a kitchen."

Deng Weixia knew of Qi Fenglian’s former husband’s actions and blushed instantly and said, "Cousin, I assure you I won’t be like him."

"Don’t speak too soon now. I’m just reminding you, when you’re riding high, don’t forget your dire straits, don’t forget who gave you a hot meal and a job. Fortunes are in your own hands, whether to cherish it is up to you. If you really end up like Zhang Jisheng, don’t wait for your cousin-in-law to say anything, leave Qing City immediately and consider me, Qi Taiguo, not your cousin anymore," Qi Taiguo warned.

Deng Weixia’s expression changed.

Qi Taiguo looked at him indifferently and said, "Don’t blame me for being harsh. My wife is my everything, I don’t like to see her upset, especially over family troubles. I’ve let the others go before, but if you are like this, don’t blame me for being unkind! If you become another Zhang Jisheng and embarrass my wife, we will no longer be family."

Deng Weixia looked at his cousin’s imposing face and shivered, "Cousin, I know what’s right."

Seeing he had said enough, Qi Taiguo patted his shoulder and said, "Do well, your cousin-in-law said, if you make a name for yourself and learn good culinary skills, whether you work for others or open your own restaurant in the future, you will have the skills, and you will never worry about meals!"

Deng Weixia nodded heavily.
