"You... you couldn’t still be thinking about the marriage proposal your sister stole from you, could you?"
Though Zhou Weimin was asking, he already had the answer in his heart. He couldn’t help but feel agitated and said, "I know you’re upset, but the things of the past, and you and I have been married for several years, and we have Longlong now, what can’t you let go of..."
"What’s wrong with not being able to let it go?"
Su Qing interrupted Zhou Weimin. She said, "It was a marriage proposal that my family introduced to . Why did Su Man have to sche against ?
Do I look stupid, deserving of being sched against? Moreover, back then my parents didn’t support , instead they blad for everything, this clearly is unfair to ,
nowadays I need them to help look after the child, it’s just to make them compensate a bit. Besides, I’m considering Longlong’s future, shouldn’t you support my actions?"
Looking at Zhou Weimin thoughtfully, Su Qing said, "Or are you thinking it’s unreasonable to fuss over family matters with your own parents?"
Zhou Weimin was tongue-tied, unable to find words to counter her, because Su Qing was right. Everything she did was for their son, and as the beneficiary, the son was his, with the surna Zhou, so naturally he should stand with Su Qing.
Yet he couldn’t help feeling uncomfortable, so after a mont of silence, Zhou Weimin said, "Compared to before, that man indeed earns more than I do, but he has quite a few shortcomings, like being too busy at work and not having ti for the family,
plus he has three freeloaders; from these points, you can see marrying isn’t much different. Besides, we’re both going to university in North City, and once we graduate, do you think our family of three won’t live as well as your sister’s family?"
Upon hearing this, Su Qing didn’t imdiately respond.
Zhou Weimin watched Su Qing’s expression and couldn’t help but continue, "I say, our lives will only get better. Instead of dwelling on those past matters, why not focus all your efforts on our family of three, avoiding the bitter thoughts about being sched by Longlong’s aunt?"
"Do you think I want to dwell on it? These years I’ve been suffering in the countryside, while Su Man is enjoying life in the city. Whenever I think about it, I get irritated." Su Qing truly resented her sister Su Man.
"Alright, alright, let’s not think about her, just focus on living our own lives. When Longlong goes with us to North City, we need to ask my in-laws for help in looking after him. At least we need to appear respectful for help; otherwise, even if they agree to help, they might not do it wholeheartedly. This would not be good for our son."
After hearing Zhou Weimin’s words, Su Qing’s expression improved slightly: "Understood."
Everyone likes to hear pleasant words. Before going to the countryside, wasn’t Su Man favored by her parents just because she knew how to sweet-talk from a young age?
She’s not stupid; she naturally knows that learning this could be to her advantage.
With her thoughts turning to this, Su Man zipped up the travel bag, casually placed it aside, and then stared at Zhou Weimin for a while, saying, "You advise not to dwell too much on the past and to look forward, but what about you?"
"What’s your point?"
Zhou Weimin was puzzled.
"Are you still hung up on your first love?"
Su Man’s gaze fixed on Zhou Weimin, scrutinizing every tiny change in his expression. Zhou Weimin said, "What right do I have to keep thinking about her?"
