Chapter 1340 Looking for my son? What's matter?

One night, Zhao Aimin returned home and found that the atmosphere at home was extremely dull. His wife, Liu Lin, looked melancholy, and his children were silent. Zhao Aimin's heart tightened, feeling that something bad had happened.

"What happened?" Zhao Aimin asked with concern.

Liu Lin looked at him and sighed, "Aimin, the teacher from school called today."

"Call?" Zhao Aimin's heart skipped a beat, "Is there something wrong with the child?"

"Yes." Liu Lin said softly, "It's about Xiaowen."

Xiaowen, Zhao Aimin's eldest son, is a lively and active child, but his grades have begun to decline recently. Teachers at the school frequently approached Zhao Aimin and Liu Lin to express concerns about Xiaowen's learning attitude.

Zhao Aimin frowned, "We have to talk." He said and walked to Xiaowen's room.

Xiaowen looked a little nervous when he saw his father coming in. He knew that his grades worried his parents.

"Dad, I..." Xiaowen hesitated to speak.

Zhao Aimin sat next to Xiaowen, "Son, daddy is not blaming you, I just want to have a chat with you, why are your grades declining?"

Xiaowen lowered his head, "Dad, I...I don't know, maybe I didn't work hard enough."

Zhao Aimin patted his son's shoulder gently, "Son, dad knows that you work very hard. But sometimes, learning is more than just hard work. Both mom and dad hope that you can be happy, but you must also understand responsibilities and obligations."

Xiaowen raised his head and looked into his father's eyes, full of gratitude and understanding, "Dad, I will work hard."

Zhao Aimin took his son's hand and said, "Dad, I believe in you and will always support you. No matter what difficulties you encounter, you must face them bravely."

At this late night moment, the father and son seemed to have a profound communication in their hearts, and Xiaowen also realized his parents' love and expectations.

The next day, the family sat together and talked about Xiaowen's study problems. Zhao Aimin and Liu Lin expressed their concern and support for Xiaowen, and also put forward some learning suggestions. Xiaowen also solemnly stated that he would work harder and live up to his parents' expectations.

In this courtyard house in Beijing, there lives an ordinary family named Zhao Aimin. He is an ordinary worker, hardworking and simple, full of endless love for his family. However, there are some misunderstandings and gaps hidden between him and his children.

One evening, Zhao Aimin stepped into the courtyard tiredly, with a trace of sweat on his forehead and a frown on his face. His wife, Liu Lin, saw her husband's expression and couldn't help but ask: "Aimin, why did you come back so late today? What happened?"

Zhao Aimin shook his head and said in a deep voice: "It's Zhao Bugui. He...he said he wanted to become Xu Damao's disciple."

Liu Lin looked startled after hearing this, "Xu Damao? That person who has been making irresponsible remarks behind our backs? How could he be a good master?"

Zhao Aimin smiled bitterly, "It was precisely because he talked a lot that Zhao Bugui felt that Xu Damao was a great master. I just told him not to go, but he didn't seem to listen."

Liu Lin frowned, "Why is this kid so intolerant of words? Don't you know Xu Damao's bad reputation?"

Zhao Aimin sighed, "Maybe it's because he heard it too much and thought it was true."

While they were talking, Zhao Bugui walked in carrying a big pot with a touch of excitement on his face, "Mom, Dad, I have decided, I am going to become Xu Damao's disciple!"

Liu Lin and Zhao Aimin looked at each other, both stunned. Zhao Aimin frowned and tried to speak out, but when he saw his son's firm gaze, he hesitated.

"Son, listen to dad, Xu Damao is not a good person. He is usually unreliable in his words and deeds." Zhao Aimin persuaded.

Zhao Bugui did not take it seriously, "Dad, you have misunderstood Xu Damao. He is well-known in the town. Everyone says that he is great in martial arts. I will become my teacher and what I have learned must be very powerful!" "

Zhao Aimin and Liu Lin exchanged glances, and both could see the helplessness and worry in the other's heart. They know that sons at this age sometimes have their own ideas and are difficult to convince.

"Son, you have to think clearly. This is no joke." Liu Lin said in a serious tone.

Zhao Bugui insisted on going his own way, "Mom, I really want to go. I believe I can learn a lot and become a powerful person!"

Seeing their son's determination, Zhao Aimin and Liu Lin could not say anything else. They know that this is a growing process and a decision that the son has to make.

So, Zhao Aimin could only sigh, "Okay, now that you have decided, dad can't say anything more. But you must be careful and don't trust others easily."

When Zhao Bugui heard his parents' permission, a bright smile appeared on his face, "Thank you, Mom and Dad! I will definitely be careful!"

Liu Lin took Zhao Bugui's hand and said, "Son, you must remember that no matter what difficulties you encounter, your family will always be your backing."

Zhao Bugui nodded, "I know, mom."

At this time, Zhao Aimin suddenly stood up and showed a bright smile, "Okay, don't be stunned, let's have dinner together!"

The next day, the early morning sunlight poured in through the windows of the courtyard, filling the quiet courtyard with a hint of life. Zhao Aimin got up early and prepared breakfast for the family. He was still a little worried in his heart, wondering whether Zhao Bugui had realized Xu Damao's true face.

Just as he was about to start eating, he heard a knock on the door. Zhao Aimin stepped forward and opened the door, only to see Xu Damao standing outside the door, armed and solemn.

"Are you Zhao Aimin?" Xu Damao asked coldly.

Zhao Aimin nodded, "Yes, do you have anything to do with me?"

Xu Damao's eyes fell on Zhao Bugui, "I'm here to find your son."

Zhao Aimin was slightly surprised, "Looking for my son? What's the matter?"

A cold glint flashed in Xu Damao's eyes, "I'm here to tell you that from today on, I will no longer accept your son as my disciple."

When Zhao Aimin heard this, he was shocked and didn't know why, "Why? Is it because of what happened yesterday?"

Xu Damao sneered, "Your son told me yesterday that you didn't support him becoming my disciple. I've known for a long time that you are a hopeless family! I will not accept such a disciple."

When Zhao Aimin heard these words, he felt angry. He wanted to refute something, but considering the temper of the man in front of him, he finally held back.

"Since you have made a decision, we will not force it." Zhao Aimin said calmly, "However, please let our child go and don't cause any more trouble for him."
