Song Yanzhi said, "It's alright, I won't be staying here for long anyway."
She could sense that the other person was someone who valued fame and fortune and was eager to achieve results.
She was the youngest teacher at their school and a college graduate; the other teachers were not as qualified as her. If she wanted to establish herself, she naturally had to quickly achieve good results and gain a foothold in the school.
They must have thought that if those who are not as good as them can win awards, they certainly won't lose either.
However, Song Yanzhi did not intend to compete with her for this, since she would be taking the college entrance examination next year.
She is actually quite happy to be able to teach students at school, but in order to go further in the future, academic qualifications are also very important.
She also wanted to see what the university she had never been able to visit was like.
...
After agreeing to her son's request, Wang Yanmei immediately went to discuss it with the Li family.
She originally thought that Xiuhe's family would be very moved by their son's ambition, understanding, and consideration for her daughter, and would even immediately agree to let their son work in the textile factory to haul goods.
Unexpectedly, Xiuhe's mother's expression immediately changed, and she angrily pointed at her and cursed, "What does your Pei family mean? We had already agreed that the wedding should be set within the next month. Why are you postponing it for so long? Are you playing with our Li family?"
Wang Yanmei was startled by her, not expecting her to be so agitated. She quickly reassured her, "Father-in-law, that's not what I meant. It's just that my son Xiaohai has a strong sense of pride. Our two families getting married is a good thing, but this sudden rush has left him unprepared and feeling that Xiuhe is being wronged, which is why we're thinking of postponing it for a while."
Upon hearing this, Xiuhe's mother's face turned even colder instead of pleased: "A strong sense of self-respect? What kind of self-respect could a good-for-nothing scoundrel have? My daughter is willing to marry him without asking for a dowry; that's a blessing he's accumulated over eight lifetimes! Does he think he's some kind of older brother? Now he's just backing out like this, as if this marriage is a game. Let me tell you, Wang Yanmei, this is the last chance Xiuhe is giving him. If he can get married, he can; if not, he can find another family. Our Li family doesn't need him!"
After saying that, he chased them away.
Wang Yanmei dared not speak out in anger, because she was really afraid of offending someone and ruining the marriage.
But the other party's tone was contemptuous, as if his son treated him like trash.
She even compared her most beloved youngest son with her eldest son.
What's the difference between this and stabbing her in the heart?
Wang Yanmei left with a dark expression.
Xiuhe came out, her face also looking rather grim. "Mom, has Pei Hai fallen for someone else again?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who would want to be with someone like him?" Mrs. Li said coldly.
Li Xiuhe pursed her lips. Actually, she had seen it. That day, she and Xu Dali went out, but they had a fight halfway there, and Xu Dali left her on the road and left.
Just as Li Xiuhe was feeling wronged and upset, she saw Pei Hai.
At the time, she was a little embarrassed and pretended not to see it.
But the next second, a girl appeared behind him.
He walked into the movie theater with popcorn in his hand, chatting and laughing with the girl.
For some reason, Li Xiuhe felt envious at that moment.
In her opinion, although Pei Hai was chosen by her parents and they said he was a promising older brother, he himself was a good-for-nothing. He was good at eating, drinking and having fun, but he was not ambitious at all.
Fortunately, her face was quite good-looking, which was some consolation.
Her mother also said that after they got married, she could introduce him to a job as a driver at a textile factory, so he would have a stable job. Moreover, although Pei Hai was a playboy, he listened to his mother very much, so she would be able to control him after they got married.
So she thought that if she disciplined him properly, life wouldn't be so bad.
Unexpectedly, things took an unexpected turn quickly. Not long after, his parents called off the engagement because of something that happened to his relatives.
In the blink of an eye, they found her another Xu Dali.
Xu Dali is not good-looking and has a bad temper.
At first, it was fine; he would pretend to be serious in front of adults.
But behind her back, he didn't treat her like a human being at all.
At first, she thought she should just bear with it.
But after discovering that Xu Dali had some kind of terrible fetish, Xiuhe regretted it.
She didn't know what to do, and then, for no apparent reason, the image of Pei Hai and that girl going to the movies popped into her mind.
That's why she contacted him again.
Now she desperately wants to get rid of Xu Dali.
Everything went smoothly and was agreed upon.
Pei Hai suddenly changed his attitude and asked to postpone the wedding.
He also said he wanted to earn his own money.
In the past, she would have been happy, thinking that at least this person knew how to strive for improvement.
But hearing these words from Wang Yanmei today, she felt a chill from the bottom of her heart.
A sense of unfamiliarity washed over Pei Hai, and an uncontrollable fear welled up inside him.
She thought of that girl.
Could it be... could it be because he already has someone he likes, that's why he's acting this way?
Xiuhe dared not think any further.
...
Although Wang Yanmei felt aggrieved, she decided to hold back. Since the other party had already said that, she would have an explanation even if someone laughed at her son.
It's not that the Pei family won't give it to them, but that the Li family doesn't want it!
She just didn't know why, but the Li family's attitude gave her a strange feeling.
This time, Wang Yanmei felt no excitement at having gained an advantage.
Instead, I felt uneasy.
Speaking of which, didn't Xiuhe go on a blind date with President Xu's family? How did the two families' negotiations fall apart?
He turned around and went to find his son, his attitude completely changed.
No, she had to find out what was going on with those two.
