Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Seeing Each Other Every Day

But give it a few years, once the Chen Family has a few more grandsons, the old couple definitely won’t care about her anymore.

The old Mrs. Li was fanning the flames, "That’s right mother-in-law, look at my granddaughters. Each one obedient as a quail, they’d never dare to go west if told to go east! In my opinion, you’re too soft. She’s just a girl, simply discipline her, give her a good beating and she’ll behave."

The naughty girl had better be stripped of a layer of skin by Ma Xiulian!

Her last words woke up Chen Jianye, "Mother-in-law is right, spare the rod and spoil the child! You used to say that a hundred or thousand warnings are not as effective as one solid beating."

Which kid these days doesn’t get a beating when they do something wrong? He and his brothers also grew up under their father’s rod.

Upon hearing this, Sanni immediately cried out in panic, "Granny, don’t hit Guibao! If you have to hit someone, hit me instead!"

If she hadn’t stubbornly held onto Jin cancan, she wouldn’t have broken it and Guibao wouldn’t have hit Grandma.

Also, Guibao’s skin is so delicate, even a light pinch will turn it red and painful.

But she has thick skin and is not afraid of pain.

Ma Xiulian glanced at her, then sternly said to Chen Jianye, "Third son, answer me honestly, do you really treat Guibao as your own daughter?"

Chen Jianye hesitated, then nodded, "Of course I treat her as my own daughter."

Although his feelings for his younger daughter are not as deep as those for his older daughter and son, blood is thicker than water.

Ma Xiulian asked again, "Does your wife Li Chunhua treat Guibao as her own daughter? Daughter-in-law, don’t interrupt, I didn’t ask you."

Chen Jianye’s gaze flickered, unsure whether he should tell the truth.

Seeing this, Li Chunhua was so anxious, franticly giving him signals with her eyes.

Just say it!

After some hesitation, Chen Jianye finally nodded, "Guibao came from Chunhua’s womb, of course Chunhua treats her as her own daughter."

Yet he knew very well in his heart that his wife didn’t like their younger daughter. She even once said she wished she had never given birth to her.

But if he shook his head and answered "No", his mother, who already didn’t approve of his wife’s harsh treatment towards their daughter, would become even more discontented with his wife.

Ma Xiulian, seemingly ignoring his moment of guilt, asked again, "Do you think you’re a qualified father to Guibao? Don’t give me any nonsense about not raising her by your side! You all live under the same roof and see each other every day."

Chen Jianye was about to nod and answer.

After all, in this day and age, merely being able to bring up a child was challenging enough for parents, let alone a girl who was destined to marry off into another family.

In many households, it was considered good enough if a girl had enough to eat.

He felt that although he had not exactly raised his younger daughter with him and did not have the same close relationship that he shared with his son, he had still been working hard in the fields to support his family.

But Ma Xiulian knew him too well, interrupting him before he could speak, "First think about your father and your two elder brothers, how they treat their daughters. Then think about how you treat your daughter. Only answer me once you get it clear."

A look of confusion crossed Chen Jianye’s face. Weren’t all the men in the Chen Family treating their daughters the same way?

They provided for them, none of the girls were starving or freezing.

But seeing his mother’s fierce expression as if to say, "Think, fail to figure it out and I’ll beat you," he had no choice but to rack his brain.
