As for Li Guoqing’s actions, Zhou Mikang wasn’t surprised. After all the fuss, it would truly be odd if this commune director had no reaction. "When they co at noon, we should still be here, so just explain everything clearly to them."
Zhang Lizhu quickly nodded, "Alright, alright, alright, I’ll listen to you."
After chatting a bit more and leaving the food behind, Zhou Mikang took Chuxia’s family back to the guesthouse to rest.
As Zhang Erniu’s sister-in-law, Luo Xiaoqiong stayed at the hospital. Naturally, Fat Auntie and Luo Gangshun, along with Luo Hongqi, also stayed. Having t for the first ti without any ntal preparation, Zhang Lizhu and Li Xiangfen were both a bit uneasy. In contrast, Zhang Lii beca much more relaxed and candid after her initial surprise.
Once their emotions had more or less settled and they understood the true situation of the Luo family, Zhang Lizhu and Li Xiangfen’s gaze toward the Luo family mbers carried a noticeable hint of awe.
Taking advantage of the mont when Luo Gangshun and Zhang Lizhu were talking, and Fat Auntie and Zhang Lii were speaking in the room, Li Xiangfen pulled her daughter out of the ward. They walked forward to find a secluded corner, then urgently asked, "Erniu, when did all this happen? Why didn’t you ntion anything about it in the letters to the family?"
"Mom, I wanted to tell you, but I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to explain it clearly and make you and dad worry. So I thought I would tell you face to face soti. Who knew dad would end up like this?
Hongqi’s sister and I are comrades, we lived in the sa dorm. So, later, when Hongqi got injured, I took extra care of him, and over ti, we found that we really got along well.
Last year, Hongqi’s parents learned about us and imdiately went to the unit to et . After eting, they were quite satisfied. They indeed asked to inform my parents for a etup, but I wasn’t ntally prepared, so I didn’t agree.
Mom, everything Hongqi’s dad said earlier was true. Moreover, their family treats especially well. Hongqi’s parents treat even better than their own daughter.
Mom, don’t worry about , when I marry into the Luo family, I definitely won’t be mistreated. You should also reassure dad, tell him not to worry either. I’m not foolish, I know what I’m doing."
"Sigh!" Li Xiangfen let out a heavy sigh. "But our family and the Luo family have such a big gap in our situations. Your dad and I are nothing, can those people really look up to us?"
"Mom, what do I have to say for you to believe ? Hongqi’s parents really aren’t the kind of people you’re worried about. The way they treat now is the way they’ll treat in the future.
They really don’t care what our family’s conditions are. Besides, if you really talk about conditions, the Lin Chuxia’s family who went to the guesthouse was pretty much the sa as our family back then.
The Zhou Commander’s family, that was more impressive than the governor’s family here, and they didn’t mind the Lin family’s conditions at all. They happily and respectfully brought Lin Chuxia ho as their bride.
However, later after Lin Chuxia married into the Zhou family, by sheer luck, they discovered her parents’ true identity and found long-lost relatives, making the two families a perfect match.
But even if Lin Chuxia’s parents had never found their biological relatives, the Zhou family wouldn’t have treated Chuxia poorly or looked down on her family.
You have no idea, at the ti when they didn’t know Lin Chuxia’s parents’ background, the Zhou family treated them very well, especially being careful not to make them overthink, doing everything properly in advance.
I’m telling you all this, mom, just to let you know that the Luo family is also kind-hearted, so you can rest assured. Moreover, don’t you think I know a lot more than before now?"
"You do speak differently now, but mom is still worried..." Li Xiangfen couldn’t help but sigh again, "My dear, let’s be frank, that girl nad Lin Chuxia is really beautiful. You can tell just by looking into her eyes that she’s clever.
You’re a part of , how could I not know your temperant—simple, straightforward—and compared to her, you don’t stand a chance. You say the Luo family has such good conditions, and Luo Hongqi looks so good too, will he really be good to you for a lifeti?"
"Yes, he will!" Zhang Erniu nodded vigorously. "Mom, because I’m simple and straightforward, I wouldn’t lie to you. Please believe , will you? They traveled such a long way, and if you and dad keep resisting or rejecting them, it would really hurt their feelings."
"Alright, alright, mom promises you, as long as you’re willing, mom will tell your dad, and we won’t interfere anymore..." As she spoke, Li Xiangfen’s voice suddenly paused, "Why is your brother here too?"
Following Li Xiangfen’s line of sight, Zhang Erniu saw her brother Zhang Dabao striding over, swaying slightly as he walked. When his eyes t hers, he obviously paused for a mont, then broke into a smile, quickening his pace.
"Brother, why are you here?" Zhang Erniu quickly went to et him. "Didn’t mom say you should stay at ho to take care of grandma and co over in the afternoon after aunt has left?"
"I should ask you why you’re here." Zhang Dabao examined his sister with curiosity all over his face, "You shouldn’t have received the telegram, how did you get here so fast?"
"I’ll explain in detail later. Brother, is it possible sothing happened to grandma?" Zhang Erniu was truly anxious. Since childhood, she had admired and loved her grandma the most.
"Grandma’s fine, her health is good..." Zhang Dabao said with a helpless smile, "But grandma’s the one who sent over. Luo Xiaoi went to our house and said she wanted to break off the engagent. Grandma sent to inform dad and mom."
"Guess they wouldn’t be willing anymore, sigh!" Li Xiangfen let out a heavy sigh, bitterly smiling as she comforted her son, "Dabao, for such a snobbish family, it’s just as well we don’t form an in-law relationship. We’ll find soone better later." (To be continued. If you like this work, please co to Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndations, monthly votes, your support is my biggest motivation.
