Chapter 93: Enlightenment

On the second day of the Chinese New Year, it is normal to go back to my parents' home. But now the old couple is celebrating the Spring Festival together with their daughter and son-in-law, so this custom has been omitted.

On the third day of the New Year, Wang Xiuren carried some things and ran to wish his landlord and Yang Guiman a happy new year.

As a courtesy, Ah Xing and Yang Guiman also came to Wang Xiuren's house to wish him a happy new year. After all, with the presence of two elders, Lin Ting and Zhou Qing, they had to be much more cautious than last year.

Because there are few relatives and friends in Pengcheng, there is no need to visit relatives every day to wish them a happy new year, so throughout the Spring Festival, the whole family, young and old, goes out every day to watch the fun.

This "watching the fun" does not mean standing by and watching in a derogatory sense, but rather there are really lively shows to watch.

During the Spring Festival, the most lively place in Shenzhen is the "Da Jia Le" stage.

In order to let the migrant workers who stayed in Shenzhen have a lively New Year, "Da Jia Coral" arranged a series of wonderful programs. Many local residents and active artists took to the "Da Jia Coral" stage to perform and find festive fun.

In Zhou Qing's words, "There is a good show to watch every day."

The whole family watched the performance on the stage with great interest. Wang Shan was even twisting her body to the music, dancing "disco" and humming "Dear, little sister...", making people around her laugh.

In addition to the "Da Jia Le" stage, there were various lion dances, unicorn dances, dragon dances, fish lantern dances, etc., which made the old couple's homesickness disappear like smoke.

It was not until the morning of the sixth day of the first lunar month that Wang Xiuren, who went to the newsstand to check in, received a call from Yang Zhefeng.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Xiuren closed the shop door and rode his bicycle to Jinxiu Garden.

"What? Brother-in-law, you said that Yang Zhefeng's parents want to meet with Daddy and Mommy on the eighth day of the first lunar month?"

Lin Ping looked at Wang Xiuren in shock.

Wang Xiuren nodded heavily, "Yes, he asked me to tell you not to be nervous, his parents are very easy to talk to!"

"How can I not be nervous? Isn't the eighth day of the first lunar month the day after tomorrow? Ah!" Lin Ping grabbed his hair and paced back and forth in the living room.

This short phone call caught Lin Ping off guard.

"Pingping, calm down. It's just a meeting between his parents and his father and mother. There's no need to be so nervous!" Lin Qiu grabbed his sister's hand and pulled her to sit on the sofa.

"That's right! Why are you so nervous? It's not like you have to get married right away."

Zhou Qing was actually a little nervous, but after all, he had experienced it once, so he remained calm.

When Lin Ping heard the word "marriage", he became restless again and wanted to stand up.

"You're so grown up, why are you still so impatient!" Lin Ting glared at his little daughter, scaring her so much that she sat back down.

"It's just a meeting between the parents of both sides, there's no need to be like this!"

Lin Ting's words did not ease Lin Ping's tension.

Lin Qiu held his sister's hand, stroking it gently, and comforted her: "Don't worry, Yang Zhefeng must have talked to his parents."

"What if his parents don't like me?" Lin Ping looked at his sister worriedly.

"If you don't like it, then don't like it! You're not marrying them. It's enough that Yang Zhefeng likes you!"

Lin Qiu felt that his sister's worries in this regard were unnecessary. "So what if your brother-in-law's parents don't like me? I'm still doing well with your brother-in-law!"

"Besides, since his parents are willing to travel thousands of miles to Pengcheng to meet Daddy and Mommy, it means they are satisfied with you! So you don't have to worry."

Lin Qiu's words calmed Lin Ping's heart to some extent. She took a few deep breaths and said, "Sister, you are right. It doesn't matter to me whether his parents are satisfied or not. What matters is Yang Zhefeng's attitude!"

"That's the right way to think!" Lin Ting nodded to his little daughter in appreciation, "Just be yourself, it doesn't matter what others think!"

Zhou Qing also added: "This situation mainly depends on Yang Zhefeng's attitude. If he really wants to marry you, he will naturally settle his parents. If he wrongs you for his parents, then there is no need for you to marry him!"

"Your mother is right! I didn't raise you to be wronged after you get married!" Lin Ting said loudly.

“Daddy!”

"Mom!"

Lin Ping looked at his parents with tears in his eyes.

"Collect the cat urine!" Lin Ting pushed the tissue on the coffee table in front of Lin Ping, and then spoke slowly.

"Marriage is a union of two families, which means the purpose of marriage is to make both families feel at ease and better. If his parents don't like you from the beginning, how can we expect the two families to be harmonious and at ease? If that's the case, then what's the point of this marriage?"

Lin Ting paused, then continued, "My daughter is beautiful and skilled, and it has always been someone who has been approached to marry her. How can anyone else be picky? Regardless of whether you are married or not, you will always have a room and a bowl of rice at home!"

Lin Ting's words were not only meant for Lin Ping, but also to remind Wang Xiuren.

Judging from the attitude of Wang Xiuren's parents, if Wang Xiuren was not sincere to Qiuqiu, he would have gone to their house long ago! Today I just want to take this opportunity to say out what I have been holding in my heart.

Wang Xiuren was not stupid. He immediately understood the hidden meaning of his father-in-law's words and sweat broke out on his forehead.

He expressed his position to his father-in-law sincerely: "Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will definitely treat Qiuqiu and Shanshan well! I will never let them suffer any injustice."

Lin Ting looked at him for a long time before nodding, "Xiu Ren has done well over the years, but you need to keep up the good work."

"In a family, the man plays a decisive role because he takes on the roles of husband, son and father. The woman came into the family for him, and his parents did their best for him, so he has to play a role in good communication."

"As a father, your character and behavior will affect your child's life. If you look down on your child, don't expect others to look up to him! Let your child feel that he has a backer behind him, so that he won't be easily wronged!"

Wang Xiuren listened to his father-in-law's teachings more and more seriously, and his face became serious.

He also has a daughter, and he has always thought about his daughter getting married one day. He certainly hopes that his daughter will live a worry-free, safe and happy life.

So his father-in-law's words were like an epiphany for him, and he decided to work harder to be a safe haven and amulet for his wife and daughter.

Lin Ting was very satisfied with Wang Xiuren's reaction. Perhaps Wang Xiuren did not realize that his greatest strength was that he could listen to other people's advice, of course, on the premise that he trusted that person.

Of course, it was not only Wang Xiuren who benefited. Sisters Lin Qiu and Lin Ping also gained a lot from their father's words.

Lin Qiu decided to ask his father more often about how to manage his career and family.

Lin Ping has his own thoughts and understanding about marriage.

It is said that if parents are virtuous, their children will be filial. If children cultivate filial piety in themselves, the results will be positive, and only then will the family be harmonious and loving, and life will prosper.
