Although the Duan family knew that Tang Weiwei had liked Duan Xichuan since she was a child, the two families had joked many times before, saying that Tang Weiwei would become Duan Xichuan's wife when she grew up.
However, Duan Xichuan's brothers and sisters all got married after falling in love freely, and Duan Xichuan is a very independent-minded son.
The elders of the Duan family all knew that marriage was a big matter and they couldn't force him.
He had also made it clear to his family that he only treated Tang Weiwei as a younger sister and had no romantic feelings for her.
The Duan family never expected that Tang Weiwei would take the opportunity of having dinner at their house today to ask such a bold and direct question.
Everyone at the table was shocked by her words.
As Duan Xichuan’s secret and legitimate girlfriend, Shen Xiaobei was naturally the first one to calm herself down quickly.
She quickly glanced at the Duan family members present and found that Wang Zhaodi and Duan Xichuan's grandmother seemed to be shocked but also a little happy.
I'm afraid he really hopes that Duan Xichuan can marry Tang Weiwei as his wife.
She immediately stopped hesitating and gently pulled the arm of Duan Beihai, who was sitting next to her. She lowered her head and whispered to him decisively, "Do you want me to be your second sister-in-law?"
Shen Xiaobei emphasized the word "I" particularly.
Duan Beihai saw that the adults were all confused, and he was curiously waiting for their reaction. When he heard Shen Xiaobei's whisper to him, he immediately met her gaze excitedly.
Shen Xiaobei smiled slyly and nodded slightly to him as a gesture of affirmation and request.
Duan Beihai, the clever little guy, immediately understood her intention.
Immediately, he announced loudly to the people at the table: "Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom, big brother, big sister-in-law, I want Sister Shen to be my second sister-in-law!"
"ah?"
Duan Beihai's words caused the Duan family to fall into the next round of shock before they could recover from the first round of shock.
"Beihai, why do you want her to be your second sister-in-law? Don't you like Sister Weiwei? Is Sister Weiwei usually not nice to you? If you say that, Sister Weiwei will be heartbroken!"
Tang Weiwei never expected that Duan Xichuan's younger brother, a seven-year-old brat, would be the first to ruin her in public.
It made her so embarrassed.
She tried hard to hide her anger towards the little brat, and questioned Duan Beihai with a friendly and aggrieved look.
"Oh, our Beihai likes Sister Shen to be your second sister-in-law. Beihai, you really have good taste. The eldest sister-in-law also likes Sister Shen to be your second sister-in-law!"
Gao Hongmian couldn't stand Tang Weiwei acting pitiful, but when she came to her senses, she immediately praised Duan Beihai.
After praising him, he looked at Shen Xiaobei with a happy face.
Shen Xiaobei pursed his lips, lowered his head and smiled slightly at her.
"Beihai, Hongmian, look at what you two said. Who Xichuan will marry is not up to you and us! Weiwei, Xiaobei, don't take their words to heart!"
"Yes, yes, Weiwei, my dear Beihai, this kid is just talking nonsense. Don't take it to heart. Children's words are not reliable."
“Brother, Mom, I’m not talking nonsense, I really like Sister Shen to be my second sister-in-law!”
"Beihai, stop butting in when the adults are talking. Let's continue eating, everyone!"
Seeing such an awkward situation, Duan Jiaxing scolded Duan Beihai and continued to eat.
"Jiaxing, please stop yelling at Beihai so loudly. Don't scare my precious grandson!"
Seeing that someone was backing him up, Duan Beihai became bolder.
He said to his grandmother who supported him with a little coquettishness: "Grandma, I really am not talking nonsense! I really like Sister Shen to be my second sister-in-law! Moreover, I also know that my second brother also likes Sister Shen to be my second sister-in-law!"
“Little grandson, how do you know that your second brother also likes this Shen girl to be your second sister-in-law?”
Hearing grandma's question, Shen Xiaobei immediately pulled Duan Beihai's arm again, shook his head gently at him, and signaled him not to say anything more.
Duan Xichuan has not yet disclosed their relationship to his family, and Shen Xiaobei does not want her to disclose it to his family.
This seemed like she was forcing him, which she found quite boring.
The reason why she asked Duan Beihai this question just now and asked him to cooperate with her was for only one purpose, which was to disrupt Tang Weiwei's plan to force marriage to the Duan family.
As long as the Duan family didn't impulsively make any promises to Tang Weiwei out of weakness or the moral bondage of the relationship between the two families.
Then her goal was achieved.
As for when her relationship with Duan Xichuan will be made public, she is not in a hurry for now.
Didn’t Duan Xichuan go out on a mission? He was serving the country. How could she be so petty as to disturb his backyard at this time?
Seeing Shen Xiaobei shook her head at him, Duan Beihai immediately understood what she meant. He immediately said to his grandmother with an innocent look on his face: "Grandma, I guessed it!"
"Beihai, how can you just guess about something like this?"
"Why can't I guess? My second brother didn't tell us who he likes to be my second sister-in-law, so of course I want to guess!"
"Hahaha, how about I ask your second brother in the letter next time to see if your guess today is right?"
"Okay, big brother, then next time you can ask my second brother in your letter, maybe I'll guess it right!"
It turned out that it was Duan Beihai who made a blind guess. Tang Weiwei immediately breathed a sigh of relief. However, she still glanced at Shen Xiaobei with great hostility.
She felt that this woman might really be interested in Duan Xichuan.
