Besides, military marriages are difficult to divorce, and soldiers are more loyal to their marriages. He's a loner, so he values ​​family even more. So, with all these conditions, what's the big deal about raising four children? And if he didn't adopt those four children, I'd be worried about his character. What other man could be as responsible as he is?

These words hit home. Finding another person might not necessarily be better off than Hao Yuanchao. Take the Jiang family, for example. The old couple were quite open-minded and treated their five children well. After their youngest son got married, they separated them to live separately. They didn't have to live together as a family, nor did they have to hand over their wages to the family. They could save their own money and avoid such hassles. However, the old couple also had no problem interfering in their children's affairs. Filial piety could suppress any resentment. Their situation was truly rare. Most families lived together, not to mention handing over their wages, and there were all sorts of issues like mothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, and younger sisters-in-law. There were countless problems. Even if they were lucky enough to separate, they would still have to hand over most of the money to support the family. After all, single families were rare, and families with more than a dozen people were the norm.

Furthermore, military marriages are difficult to break off, which is why they wanted to but held off on taking the initiative, fearing the negative repercussions of breaking off the marriage. They had originally decided to break off the marriage for Jiang Shuyao's sake, even at the risk of criticism. But now, not only Hao Yuanchao insisted, but Jiang Shuyao too. They were eager to talk to the matchmaker, and if both young people disagreed, they would be the ones to be embarrassed.

The more Jiang's mother thought about it, the more troubled she became. Seeing Song Shuyao's stubborn look, she became even angrier. Finally, she said, "I don't agree," and went back to her room without mentioning her intention to see Director Zhao. This was a sign of anger, but also a concession.

Song Shuyao breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if Jiang's mother's attitude could be shaken. Otherwise, if she was stubborn and refused to agree, it would be embarrassing. From ancient times to the present, few parents could prevail over their children, especially for someone like her who grew up halfway through her life. She had feelings for Jiang's mother but they were not deep. If she really got angry, she might be so cruel as to break up with her. If she didn't visit him in the future, she would just give him a pension. This was the worst-case scenario. Fortunately, it didn't have to get to that point.

As for Jiang's father and the others' opinions, they didn't need to consider them for now. Jiang's father was a man, more realistic and rational than Jiang's mother. Based on Song Shuyao's analysis, he did believe Hao Yuanchao was a good person and might turn out well in the future, but the probability was so low that he wasn't willing to take the gamble. Furthermore, while raising four children was difficult, raising them well was highly rewarding. Hao Yuanchao and Jiang Shuyao were both well-regarded people with good character and knowledge, so the likelihood of them being raised poorly was low.

More importantly, as a man, he knew the bad nature of men. Soldiers in the army were indeed more loyal in marriage, and the possibility of cheating was smaller. There was no need to worry that Song Shuyao would be ignored by Hao Yuanchao after she had children. Most men valued the inheritance of their own bloodline more. So after some divergent thinking and out of love for his daughter, he agreed to the marriage despite Jiang Shuyao's stubborn insistence.

As long as Jiang's parents agree, the opinions of other members of the Jiang family are not very important.

However, it was obvious that Jiang's mother still didn't change her mind so quickly. She was angry for several days and even resorted to cold violence against Song Shuyao.

Song Shuyao didn't have deep feelings for Jiang's mother, but she still had the memories of her original body and was influenced by her to some extent. She didn't want to have a cold war with Jiang's mother in the few days before getting married, nor did she want Jiang's mother to be unwell because of it. After thinking about it, she decided to ask Jiang's mother to give in and went to the department store to buy a pair of high-quality leather shoes.

No woman doesn't love gifts, but as a mother, she still feels sorry for her children's money first. She couldn't help but say to Jiang Shuyao, "Why waste this money? Take it back and return it. You want me to sell my daughter for a pair of shoes? No way!"

"Shall I buy some more?"

"you……"

Song Shuyao smiled. Although she was not used to acting like a spoiled child in front of her elders, she was still able to say soft words. "Don't be angry, okay? I really want to marry Hao Yuanchao, and I don't want you to be angry. There were male classmates who pursued me during my four years in college, but I just thought Hao Yuanchao was good. I also want to let go, but I can't." This was her true words. If she could do it and be willing to let go, she would not have come into this world after drinking too much.
