The breakthrough point must be Xia Ning; otherwise, with Zhong Songbai's cunning and treacherous nature, how much effort would it take to pry him open?
However, asking directly was definitely not an option; she still had to try and trick Xia Ning.
Based on her understanding of Xia Ning, she guessed that Xia Ning was sulking at home, so she went over under the guise of trying to reconcile them.
Zhong Wanwan devised a plan. She went home first and asked Zhong Songbai to make crispy yellow vegetables from the last plate of fried egg slices. Then she took the plate and left.
I'm helping you out, how can I not put in the effort!
When Zhong Wanwan arrived at Grandma Bai's house, she greeted Xiao Pangui, who opened the door, and went straight to Xia Ning's room.
Xia Ning saw Zhong Wanwan arrive with a plate and smirked, saying:
"Why are you here? I haven't been going these past two days because I've been here."
Zhong Wanwan thought to herself, "This is like trying to hide something obvious; this explanation is clearly an admission of guilt!"
Zhong Wanwan rolled her eyes and said:
"Oh dear, Songbai sent me. Don't you know him? He's too shy to say it himself, so he asked me to come and coax you. I even made your favorite crispy yellow vegetable dish!"
"This is our last plate. Little Yang was so persistent, but we couldn't get it. It's all thanks to your influence!"
Xia Ning was surprised that Zhong Songbai would tell her such things. How come he was so open about it?
What do you mean he's not talkative? She thought he talked a lot!
Xia Ning awkwardly shook her arm and said:
"Why should I be coaxed? Besides, it's not a big deal. I didn't take it to heart."
Hehe, I managed to get a little information out of her, Zhong Wanwan thought to herself with secret delight, but she didn't show it on her face.
"Oh my, this is so stubborn. Let me see if you have metal teeth to make it so hard?"
"If I didn't care, why aren't you going? What's wrong? We're preparing food for the New Year, do we need you as a substitute fire-tiller?"
Xia Ning fell silent, glanced at Zhong Wanwan, and said dejectedly:
"I just don't quite understand Songbai anymore. If I say he's bad to me, then I'm going against my conscience. If I say he's good to me, then he has no intention of marrying me."
Zhong Wanwan was shocked. The two of them had argued about marriage? Had things progressed that quickly? When did this happen? She had no idea!
That's not right either. Zhong Songbai will only be 18 after the New Year. He's not old enough to get married!
In this day and age, men get married at 20, and Zhong Songbai is still more than two years away from being old enough!
Xia Ning, on the other hand, is already 18, the legal marriage age for women.
Zhong Wanwan stared in disbelief and exclaimed:
"Songbai will only be 18 after the New Year. He's not old enough to get married. Are you in such a hurry to get married? How about we discuss it and have the wedding banquet first!"
According to Zhong Wanwan's idea, waiting a few more years is perfectly acceptable. After all, it will be 1975 after the New Year, and in two more years, both of them will be able to take the college entrance examination.
Four years of university study is not really suitable for getting married, let alone raising children.
The two are not old; they will be 24 and 25 when they graduate from university, so it's perfectly fine for them to get married then.
Even if you're really in a hurry, it's not impossible to get married after you go to university; it's just not the right time now.
But since she was the eldest sister-in-law, it wasn't appropriate for her to interfere, especially since the future sister-in-law was in a hurry, so they could only go along with it!
