Old Madam Qiao was reborn—seven days before her whole family was sent to the countryside.
Looking at her family, still safe and sound—her son and daughter-in-law alive, her two young grandchi...
I'm so envious, so jealous.
Looking at the familiar and warm manner of the old man, Ling's father, Ling's mother, and the Su family not far away, Ling's second sister-in-law felt extremely bitter.
Today was the first time the two families met, and not only did Grandpa Ling grace us with his presence, but he was also incredibly polite to the Su family—something that hadn't happened when they were discussing her husband's marriage.
At that time, not only did Grandpa Ling not attend, but his attitude towards her and her family was also very indifferent.
Ling's father and mother didn't show much enthusiasm for her parents, unlike now, when her mother-in-law, the mother of her future sister-in-law, chatted and laughed with her, and even her father-in-law and father-in-law got along very well.
Before, Sister-in-law Ling had always known that the Ling family looked down on her family, but today made her feel it even more deeply.
"Sister-in-law, look how happy Mom and Dad are."
She couldn't help herself and turned to Sister-in-law Ling, saying sourly.
"My third brother is finally getting married, so of course Mom and Dad are happy. Not to mention Mom and Dad, we're happy too. It's a joyous occasion to have a new addition to the family."
Sister-in-law Ling knew how her younger brother's wife had gotten married; if the car hadn't been arranged first, her mother-in-law would never have agreed.
Today's match has probably made her envious. However, both families have the resources to back it up; this is the fate of the Ge family, and her envy is useless.
Moreover, they are currently eating at the same table as Sister-in-law Su, and saying such things could easily lead to misunderstandings, so she quickly smiled and made a statement.
"Yes, there's good news in the family."
Ling Ersao realized that what she had just said was somewhat inappropriate, and quickly corrected herself.
If her mother-in-law knew what she was thinking, she probably wouldn't let her go to the compound so often anymore.
Not being able to go to the compound often would mean missing out on so many benefits. Besides, being able to go there frequently is like being a product of the compound, a status symbol, and a connection to the people in the compound. If something happens in the future, you can ask someone for help.
Ling's parents were unaware of their second daughter-in-law's envious and jealous thoughts. At this moment, the couple, Su Huaiyuan and Qiao Jiuru, were chatting more and more congenially, and even felt a sense of regret for not having met sooner.
We never expected that our future in-laws would know so much, be so capable, and be able to handle any situation. Most importantly, they are incredibly sincere.
Even the old master Ling from the border region liked the Su family very much, especially the three children Su Xingchen, Su Xinghai, and Feng Zilu.
She is well-behaved, sensible, lively, polite, and academically excellent. She also has a sweet tongue and speaks like a little adult, making Grandpa Ling very happy.
Ling Da Ge, Ling Er Ge, and Su Ze were chatting with Su Feng and his brother. They hadn't even finished their meal yet, but they were already very close.
"Father-in-law, we like Huazhu very much and are very satisfied with her. She is the daughter-in-law that our Ling family has chosen. Can we discuss this? We can register our marriage after Huazhu graduates from university, and then hold the wedding during the summer vacation!"
Ling's mother's current thought is to quickly arrange for this daughter-in-law to come, because she's afraid that if she doesn't act soon, she'll be snatched away by someone else.
A family like the Su family has no trouble finding a husband for their daughter, and the conditions of the men they marry into will certainly not be worse than those of our family. We should hurry up and seize such good in-laws.
“My husband has no objection; it’s mainly about the wishes and thoughts of the two children.”
Qiao Jiuru also generously stated that this was a matter for the two children, and it was mainly up to them.
Immediately, all eyes fell on Ling Xiaohe and Su Huazhu. As the main characters of the evening, the two of them were also sitting at the main table, and even sitting opposite Old Master Ling.
“I will definitely listen to Huazhu. I will register whenever she says so. As long as she is willing to marry me, I will do whatever she says.”
Despite the many gazes upon him, Ling Xiaohe remained unfazed and declared without hesitation that he was a henpecked husband, leaving everything to Su Huazhu's discretion.
Su Huazhu: "..."
Oh dear, she really didn't expect this man to say that. How was she supposed to respond?!
However, despite the many eager gazes, Su Huazhu nodded and directly stated her position:
"I also plan to register my marriage after graduation. I'll have the wedding during the summer vacation and then visit my relatives in my hometown."
"Okay, this is a good time."
Grandpa Ling exclaimed "Good!" and nodded in satisfaction, also feeling that the timing was perfect.
Summer vacation is a long holiday with plenty of time, making it the perfect time for weddings or visiting relatives.
"Yes, yes, we agree."
“My dear in-law, let’s do it this way.”
...
Ling's parents were overjoyed; their thoughts coincided perfectly, which was wonderful.
Satisfied, satisfied, we are extremely satisfied.
Both parties enjoyed the meal, creating a harmonious atmosphere, and even exchanged home phone numbers.
The next day, Su Feng, Professor Jin and his wife, and Jin Zhu took the train to South Korea together.
Ling Xiaohe didn't travel with them because he couldn't bear to part with Su Huazhu, so he planned to stay for two more days.
In the past two days, he visited the Su family every day. He had lunch at the Su family's house, and in the afternoon he took Su Huazhu to the park to take pictures. Then in the evening he took her back to his home in the compound for dinner, and then sent her back home.
Before she knew it, it was time for her to leave. Su Huazhu personally escorted her to the train station and even gave her a bag of snacks for the journey.
Ling Xiaohe reluctantly boarded the train, standing inside the door watching his beloved girl until the train departed and he could no longer see her.
The time before I felt like it went by so fast, but from now on it feels like it's going by so slowly.
Summer vacation, I wish it would come soon!
