Chapter 97 Never Came Back

Yuan Dabao felt that Yuan Gaoyi and Wang Qinghua both had old-fashioned ideas.

The most basic requirement they have for their daughter-in-law is that she has a stable job.

The so-called stable jobs include teachers, doctors, government clerks, factory workers, etc.

This kind of job is the first choice for a daughter-in-law.

Snow White didn't.

Secondly, they require academic qualifications.

Yuan Dabao graduated from a technical secondary school, so his daughter-in-law naturally needs to have the same academic qualifications. If not a technical secondary school, then a high school diploma, and higher is even better.

Snow White didn't.

Finally, it depends on the family.

A harmonious family is the only way to raise a kind and gentle daughter. It is best if she is not an only child, and has older brothers and sisters.

This snow is half.

She has an older sister and is not an only child.

But the family was not harmonious.

So from one to three, Wang Qinghua and Yuan Gaoyi required the three most basic elements of a daughter-in-law, and Bai Xue did not have any of them.

Wang Qinghua made trouble several times. He first went to Bai Xue's store to make trouble. After being warned by Yuan Dabao, he started to avoid him.

As long as Yuan Dabao returns home, Wang Qinghua will hide away.

I'm taking the approach of "If I don't see you, what can you do to me?"

After angrily hanging up the phone, Yuan Dabao sat on the sofa in a daze. Even when Wei Ran came home to look for him and the door was open, Yuan Dabao didn't hear a single sound.

"You're really home." Wei Ran held onto the door and looked at Yuan Dabao. "I called out to you twice outside, but you didn't even come back."

"Huh?" Yuan Dabao turned and saw Wei Ran, smiling. "How did you know I was back?"

"My mother said so." Wei Ran walked in, and the two brothers looked at each other.

Yuan Dabao sighed, "Your mother knows I'm coming back? Oh."

"What? Did you intend to launch a surprise attack? Auntie knew you were coming back, so she hid away?" Wei Ran guessed it immediately.

Yuan Dabao gave a thumbs-up. "You guessed right."

"It's the same routine as my mom." Wei Ran smiled bitterly. "They must have discussed this. My mom is the same. As soon as I say I want to bring Tianlan back, she immediately hides away and doesn't come back. If we don't meet, there will be no conflict, but nothing can be solved."

"That's right." Yuan Dabao said, "What should we do?"

Wei Ran's suffering was no less than Yuan Dabao's, as there were only three of them in Yuan Dabao's family. According to Yuan Dabao, Wang Qinghua was the most opposed to the change, and Yuan Gaoyi was also persuaded by Wang Qinghua; he wasn't actually opposed to it himself. But things were different in Wei Ran's family. Aside from Du Lurui, none of Wei Ran's father, eldest sister, or second sister agreed. Even though the two sisters were married, they were still invited back to teach Wei Ran a lesson.

Cheng Tianlan has a good job and a high level of education, but her family, especially her eldest brother's job, is the main reason why Du Lurui opposes it.

Because of this, Wei Ran had discussed it with Du Lurui many times, repeatedly stating that Cheng Tianye was Cheng Tianye, Cheng Tianlan was Cheng Tianlan, and they were just siblings. Furthermore, Cheng Tianye wasn't the thug his mother had imagined; he simply shouldered the burden of supporting his family at a young age, and running the dance hall business was a necessity.

This reason didn't work for Du Lurui. She knew that the dance hall had opened branches and fights were happening all the time. Du Lurui firmly disagreed with such a family.

When Wei Ran heard Yuan Dabao ask him, he smiled, "What can I do? If there was a way, Tianlan wouldn't have to break up with me."

It was the first time Yuan Dabao heard Wei Ran talk about this. He asked in surprise, "Cheng Tianlan wants to break up with you?"

*

Cheng Tianlan is not a fool.

When she went to Wei Ran's house for the first time and talked about her work and so on, Wei Ran's mother always greeted her with a smile, and even held her hand and talked to her while looking at her smiling face.

Everything went very smoothly. Cheng Tianlan and Wei Ran thought they had passed the test of the elders, but before they had time to be happy, they mentioned their eldest brother Cheng Tianye.

The hand holding Cheng Tianlan slowly loosened.

Du Lurui's face became more and more ugly, and she confirmed with Cheng Tianlan twice whether it was that nightclub.

Cheng Tianlan said yes.

After leaving Wei Ran's house, Cheng Tianlan understood.

She is popular, but her family is not.

Cheng Tianlan was very straightforward. The moment he came out of Wei Ran's house, he told Wei Ran.

"Your mother likes me very much."

"yes."

"But she doesn't like my family."

Wei Ran's expression changed immediately.

As sensitive as Cheng Tianlan was, she immediately guessed what Du Lurui was thinking.

"It's okay." Cheng Tianlan tilted his head and smiled, "I can understand. After all, my eldest brother is too famous in our little place. Whenever something happens, good things can't be found by him, but bad things will definitely make him the first person to think of. Since I started school, many of my classmates' parents won't let their children play with me."

Cheng Tianlan spread his hands and said, "I'm used to it."

"I'll convince my mom," Wei Ran said immediately. "I've met my eldest brother. He's a very good person and would treat you even better. We shouldn't have professional prejudices. I'll talk to my mom about it, don't worry."

At that time, Cheng Tianlan just looked at Wei Ran and smiled, under the street light, with a look that Wei Ran couldn't explain.

What kind of look is that?

Wei Ran later recalled it many times and finally understood that it was a look of distrust.

Cheng Tianlan had known for a long time that Wei Ran could not convince his family to accept her.

Just like when we were kids, those parents rolled their eyes and pulled their children away.

The children who were taken away never came back.

Wei Ran would do the same.

He will also be pulled away by his mother.

Cheng Tianlan knew.
