"You already know this, don't you think the higher-ups in the US understand? Otherwise, why would they cause trouble elsewhere?"

But no matter what it is, we Chinese are not afraid to confront them.

"Should we investigate Junde's girlfriend privately as well? We can't let her end up like the two in my older brother's family."

"Let's talk about it after we meet them! Right now they're just talking, they haven't brought them home yet, so we can't interfere too much."

I also want to see how the other family reacts, especially if they can't accept my father putting his assets in a family trust.

Their relationship naturally fell apart; this was a test in itself.

"That's right. If someone hasn't even met the parents yet, but is already thinking about things they shouldn't be thinking about, then that kind of person shouldn't even be allowed to enter the Shen family."

His parents aren't exactly upright people either; otherwise, how could they have raised such a child?

"What I'm worried about now is Ruohua. She's a girl, and our family is good in every way. I'm just afraid she'll suffer in relationships, since there aren't many families that can match our family's strength."

The person pursuing her isn't after your position in the military, but rather after our family's business.

If the other person loves Ruohua, that's fine, but if they don't love her and keep deceiving her, it's even more terrible.

Don't forget, throughout history, there have been countless men like this who rose from humble beginnings to achieve success.

"Then what should we do?"

"We can only find such sons-in-law from the military, and their families must be well-off."

Even if they are a few years older, it's not a problem.

"But wouldn't that be bad too? I think it would be better to find an honest soldier from the countryside."

"Can you guarantee that someone like that doesn't have a fiancée or the like in the countryside?"

Don't forget, there were quite a few people in our parents' generation who abandoned their wives and children for their careers.

"We can't just condemn everyone like that!"

"Then think about it again. Can someone like our daughter take care of a rural mother-in-law?"

I've lived in the countryside and witnessed firsthand how formidable rural mothers-in-law can be.

Ruohua's personality wouldn't be able to handle a mother-in-law who is uneducated and acts like a scoundrel.

Even if you leave your elderly relatives to be cared for by your siblings in the countryside, don't forget the saying "raising a tiger to cause trouble."

Back when we lived in the countryside, there were quite a few people like that.

"Then what should we do? Tell me!"

"If Ruohua is studying at a military academy, then the other party must also be a college graduate or above, and their family conditions cannot be too poor."

Even disregarding our family's capabilities, the other family must be at least as well-off as my older brother's family.

Both parents are educated people. As long as they are like that, even if there is something wrong, they can listen to the teachings.

We don't care how many siblings there are, or whether they will take care of our parents in their old age.

But at least this man needs to be upright. When something happens, he should at least think of his sister like her husband does; otherwise, no matter how good he is, it won't work.

"Then we can only choose from the military compound, but even so, it doesn't seem quite right."

"I know, that's why we're saying take it slow. We need to let her try dating a few people, otherwise how will we know who's right for her?"

"You can only say that now. If this had happened more than 20 years ago, it would have been considered the behavior of a female hooligan."

"There's nothing we can do about it. That's just how times have changed. Girls need to experience more relationships, otherwise how will they know if the other person is lying to them?"

"If it's just me and you talking here, then our daughter should do exactly what I say!"

"I know one too, so I'm planning to arrange a few blind dates for her to try?"

"No way! Junde hasn't even brought his girlfriend back yet, and Hongyu doesn't even have a boyfriend. You're already thinking about arranging things for your daughter. Aren't you afraid of scaring her?"

Besides, our daughter is only twenty years old this year. Isn't it a bit too hasty?

No, I absolutely disagree with this.

"What can you do if you disagree? It's better than her bringing home a son-in-law that she can't stand in any way."

"But the child is too young!"

"Is she young? She's already an adult. When I was her age, I already had children."

"That won't work either, times have changed."

"You can't disagree, someone's already pursuing her!"

"What? It's that brat? You tell me, I'll go and beat him to a pulp right now."

"Alright, our daughter not only didn't agree, but she's also not interested in him."

Besides, I had someone investigate this kid, and he's really not that great.

But simply bothering my daughter isn't an option either, is it? We need to make her back down.

"Since that's the case, then you should introduce someone to your daughter as you said."

As for whether it's suitable or not, let them discuss it themselves! What do you think?

"Okay, that's what I was planning to do too."

"So whose child do you think would be suitable? It's not impossible to find one in the compound, but nowadays there are too few children who are soldiers like their parents."

And they're either several years older than our daughter, or a bit younger.

"Finding someone a few years older is fine; they're caring and considerate of their daughters."

"That's true, but luckily the family compound is big. I'll ask the political commissar later. He's good at this kind of thing. Do you think we should introduce someone to Hongyu as well?"

"Why don't you introduce them to Xiu Yuan and his brother first? Didn't you see what happened today? They were completely bewildered the whole time."

"But who at the wedding yesterday didn't know they were dating?"

"They've only been gone a few days and they're already asking for introductions, what do you think of that?"

"What's wrong with that? Just say they're not a good match. As for anything else, let's not say anything else. Even if the woman's family has problems, we can't let that get out of our mouths right now."

And you should also say something like, "It was an order from the elders in the family, after all, it's about resolving personal matters."

The two of them were absolutely unwilling, but there was nothing they could do! They had no choice but to obey their elders' arrangements.

"Alright then! I'll talk to the political commissar tomorrow, but whether it works or not won't be up to me."

"I know. I'll talk to Zhang Chunmei about it later. Now, besides taking care of her grandson at home, she spends all her time going around trying to find a match for people."

She knows everything about both the man's and woman's families. I know many people who have children with her; she was the one who acted as matchmaker.

"Wouldn't that make him a professional matchmaker?"

"No, she just wanted to take her grandson out to play. It's all about playing, isn't it? Last year, I heard Brother Wu worrying about his child's marriage at home."

She would often go to her friends' houses to play, and I don't know how they ended up together.

As you know, I have connections with the educated youth who were sent to the countryside in our military compound.
