Chapter 108 Better Conditions Than Gu Huai
"Why is she here again?" Qin Shulan frowned. Zhao Changying, this old country woman, was indeed powerful and difficult to deal with.
When Zhao Changying brought Yu Hui to force Gu Huai to marry her after the New Year, she went to Gu's house on the pretext of visiting her grandson.
He also tried to persuade her not to force Gu Huai, but was scolded by the old woman.
Even she couldn't withstand Zhao Changying's sharp tongue.
She didn't like Siyu in the first place, and it was Siyu who wanted to divorce Gu Huai. If Siyu went to the military family compound to see the children while she was around, she would definitely be beaten out by Zhao Changying.
"How did you know she was coming?" Qin Shulan asked her daughter curiously.
Lin Siyu took a sip of noodle soup and said, "I met him at the train station today."
When Qin Shulan heard that they met at the train station, she suddenly remembered what Wei Jingfen had said earlier. She hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone else with you?"
Lin Siyu stared at her for a while and said, "There's my boyfriend."
Hearing this, Qin Shulan slapped her thigh hard.
Seeing her reaction, Lin Siyu was very unhappy, "Are you clawing at me? I'm already divorced, can't I have a boyfriend?"
"If Zhao Changying saw it, she would have to go back and tell Gu Huai and the child." If Gu Huai knew that she was with another man, would he still be able to remarry her in the future?
Can that man accept that his wife, the mother of his children, has been with another man?
And what about those children? If they knew that their mother was with another man not long after the divorce, what would they think of her?
"Gu Huai also saw it. They all know that I have a boyfriend."
Qin Shulan raised her head slightly, her eyelids slightly closed, and she felt dizzy.
Lin Siyu couldn't bear to see her mother's expression of despair. "Mom, I'm divorced. My current boyfriend and I were college classmates and we were in a free relationship. There's nothing I can't let Gu Huai know."
College classmates?
Qin Shulan caught the key word. Her daughter's boyfriend was also a college student. He would definitely be assigned a good job after graduation.
Gu Huai and Zhao Changying both knew that Siyu had a boyfriend and that he had even met him. Her wish for her daughter to remarry Gu Huai was definitely hopeless.
"What does his family do?" Qin Shulan was very curious about her daughter's boyfriend's family.
Lin Siyu naturally knew why her mother asked these questions. She rolled her eyes and put down her finished bowl. "His grandfather used to be the principal of the city high school. He was overthrown during the turmoil and sent to a farm for reform..."
When Qin Shulan heard this, she immediately felt that this was not acceptable. How could she accept someone who was a rightist in the family?
"But he was rehabilitated and returned to the city two years ago. He was able to get the quota to return to the city early because his grandfather was rehabilitated and returned to the city. His grandfather is now retired and lives in a courtyard in Siping Lane. His monthly pension is over 100 yuan."
When Qin Shulan heard that she had been rehabilitated and returned to the city, that her family still had a yard in Siping Lane, and that her pension was over 100 yuan, her eyes lit up.
This condition is better than Gu Huai's.
My grandfather is the principal, so my parents’ jobs must be good too.
"His father is a doctor at the city hospital, his mother is a nurse, and he has a younger sister. The whole family lives in the city hospital's staff quarters."
He only has one younger sister, and in the future, all his grandfather's property and his parents' property will be his. Thinking of this, Qin Shulan's eyes brightened.
"He's about my age, also studying Chinese. He's handsome, gentle and easygoing."
After Lin Siyu finished speaking, Qin Shulan also finished her analysis. She previously thought that Gu Huai had better conditions, but now after comparing, it is obvious that her daughter's current boyfriend has better conditions.
My grandfather is a school principal, so he must have many students and connections all over the world.
He is a college student himself, and with the connections left by his grandfather, he will definitely be able to enter a government agency in the future and get promoted quickly.
My parents also have jobs, unlike Gu Huai's hometown where he has a bunch of poor relatives and his parents are farmers.
There is no one at home who can help him, so he has to rely on him for help.
Even though my daughter's current boyfriend is still a college student and doesn't make money, he will definitely be more successful than Gu Huai in the future.
"When will you bring her home to meet me?" Qin Shulan asked her daughter with a smile.
Lin Siyu glared at her, thinking she was really snobbish. "Didn't you just look like the sky was falling? Now you have to meet someone again?"
Qin Shulan: "Oh, Mom knows about their family situation. But, you and Gu Huai have been divorced for too long. You can wait until the New Year to see each other. Then there won't be anyone to gossip about."
A year after the divorce, Gu Huai remarried, and when his daughter brought her new partner home, no one would gossip about her.
Lin Siyu rolled her eyes. She was not afraid of being gossiped about.
However, she had no plans to take Lu Tianyou to meet her family now, and planned to wait for a while. No matter what, she would have Lu Tianyou take her to meet his family first, and then she would take him home.
"But..." Qin Shulan started to worry again, "You've been married and have children. Will his family disagree?"
How could a family with such good conditions agree to let their son marry a divorced woman with children?
Lin Siyu rolled her eyes at her mother. She didn't think that being divorced and having children made her any lesser. She said with disdain, "Do you think that educated and cultured people are just as pedantic and feudal as you?"
"His parents are very open-minded. Tianyou has already mentioned me to his parents, and they agree with our relationship."
Before she confirmed her relationship with Lu Tianyou, she asked him if his family would mind. She was divorced and had children, and if his family would mind, they should just not start.
Tianyou said his family didn't mind, and even if they did, he would be with her for the rest of his life.
For her, he can abandon his family and make enemies with the whole world.
"I'm glad you don't mind, I'm glad you don't mind." Qin Shulan smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth.
Then he looked at Lin Siyu's face and praised, "My Siyu is good-looking, and the partners she finds are really better than the last."
Lin Siyu: "Didn't you blame me for divorcing your rich husband?"
"Oh, Mom didn't know you could find such a good one."
"But..." Qin Shulan changed the subject, "You still have to see the child. You can't let the neighbors say that you are a cruel mother who even disappeared after the divorce."
Even if my daughter has found a better partner, I still have to keep these kids around and I can't just cut off contact with them.
They don't need to raise the child. They just need to see him occasionally and say a few words of concern. Then they will miss him and think about him. When he grows up and becomes successful, he will come to show his filial piety to him. Why should they break off the relationship?
"Anyway, I won't go to the military family compound." Lin Siyu made her attitude clear.
Qin Shulan thought for a moment and said, "If you don't go, I'll go and bring the children home to see them in two days. You should be nicer to them then. If you treat them a little better, say a few caring words, and give them a few more smiles, they will remember it for the rest of their lives."
