Chapter 92 Urging Marriage
"Wangshu, you are finally here."
As soon as she saw Ye Wangshu, Ye Wanwan immediately rushed over.
Ye Wangshu breathed a sigh of relief as Ye Wanwan hugged him.
It seems the leader's wife is fine, it's Ye Wanwan who is in trouble.
"Why did you come to the compound all of a sudden? And you used the excuse that your wife was sick and asked me to come quickly?"
Ye Wanwan released her arms from around Ye Wangshu, her face flushing. "Actually... it's my grandmother. She's urging me to find a partner and get married!"
Ye Wanwan pursed her lips, looking very annoyed.
"Grandmother of the Ye family?"
Ye Wangshu frowned slightly. She had never met Ye Wanwan's grandmother, but she had heard her mention her before.
He was a kind-looking old man who had worked hard for most of his life, and in the second half of his life, his daughters competed to support him.
The few times she went to Mayor Ye's house, it was not Ye's grandmother's turn to visit them.
Ye Wanwan nodded hurriedly, then said helplessly, "My cousin got married not long ago! My grandmother focused all her attention on me, so I came here."
"I'm sorry to have worried you! But I don't want anyone to know I'm here."
Looking at Ye Wanwan's apologetic face, Ye Wangshu chuckled softly, "It's okay, as long as Madam is alright. But... Lawyer Ye probably isn't married yet, right? Why isn't your grandmother urging him to get married?"
"Speaking of this, I'm furious! My brother actually said he already has someone he likes, and he wants to pursue her after he's made a name for himself! He spoke so ambitiously, and my grandmother nodded repeatedly. Then... she set her sights on me."
Ye Wanwan pouted, her features furrowed. "I wanted to use my brother's words to fight back, but then my grandmother said girls don't need to be too capable... Anyway, she said a lot of similar things."
"But she was obviously very powerful back then. The older generation in the city knew her name!"
"Maybe grandma knows how hard it is, and since she's old, she wants to see her grandchildren happy!"
Ye Wangshu raised his hand and patted Ye Wanwan's shoulder. "So you plan to keep hiding like this?"
Ye Wanwan shook her head. "No, Grandma's old. If I don't come home for a long time, she'll get worried. But I really don't want to go on a blind date, but I can't just conjure someone out of thin air!"
After hearing what Ye Wanwan said, Ye Wangshu couldn't help but think of Qin Cheng.
I don’t know what the relationship between these two people is like, and whether Wanwan knows that Qin Cheng likes him.
After thinking it over, Ye Wangshu decided to speak in a roundabout way.
"Wanwan, do you have someone you like?"
"The one I like?" Ye Wanwan frowned slightly, as if lost in memories.
Ye Wanwan then gave a wry smile and shook her head. "My parents helped me secure university admission in Beijing, and I want to complete my studies. As for romance... I don't have the time or energy."
"You can have both study and love, but it depends on your willpower and the person you are with."
Ye Wangshu never thought that love could make people regress. On the contrary, good love could become a stepping stone on the road of life.
For each other, work harder, strive harder, and move forward.
"I can't do it! I'm just an ordinary person, and it's hard to separate a heart." Ye Wanwan curled her lips, then looked at Ye Wangshu with admiration.
"I wish I could be like Wangshu, who not only has a successful career but also has such a good relationship with Zhou Jincong."
"You're exaggerating a bit." Ye Wangshu couldn't help but laugh a few times, covering his face. "My life isn't that glamorous, but... as long as you've made up your mind."
Ye Wangshu couldn't tell whether Ye Wanwan was interested in Qin Cheng, but from what she had just said.
I'm afraid Qin Cheng still has a long way to go in his unrequited love, and the road ahead is so long that there's no end in sight.
"So why did you call me over here?"
"I'm just talking to you! My parents and my aunts and uncles all say the same thing as my grandma. It's not like a woman can't live without a man, right?"
Ye Wangshu nodded. "That's true, and women can hold up the world, too. They don't necessarily need men. But... if you find someone you like in the future, you must be brave enough to pursue them."
After Ye Wangshu finished speaking, he suddenly thought of Ye Wanwan's ex-fiancé and his brows instantly furrowed.
Her good friend seems to be a little love-sick.
"However, you have to understand that you are yourself first, and you have to think about yourself first. You can't be like before and let yourself be fooled by others, okay?"
"Wangshu, don't worry. I'm not interested in love right now. I just want to study and improve myself."
Seeing Ye Wanwan raise three fingers seriously, Ye Wangshu clapped his hands with a smile, "Yes, that's right."
The two chatted for a long time before Ye Wangshu returned to Zhou's house.
"Brother, I want to go back to school."
Zhou Xiaohong's voice was very low, but Zhou Jincong heard it clearly.
"After your second sister-in-law came out of the police station, didn't someone from the barber shop come to apologize? They even said that if you go there again, they can arrange a separate room for you."
"That's right, but I..." Zhou Xiaohong's face was conflicted. She looked up at Zhou Jincong, then quickly lowered her head.
"What's going on?"
As soon as Ye Wangshu returned to the house, he saw the brother and sister in a stalemate.
"Second sister-in-law, I told my second brother that I wanted to go back to school. But...but..."
"You want to go to school? No problem. I'll go into town and ask for you sometime."
When Ye Wangshu heard Zhou Xiaohong say that she wanted to go to school, there was no anger on his face, and he was even a little surprised.
When Zhou Xiaohong looked at Ye Wangshu like this, her eyes lit up and a sense of bitterness rose in her heart.
"Second sister-in-law, don't you blame me?"
"Why do you blame me? You mean the apprenticeship at the Xiuse Barber Shop?"
Ye Wangshu looked at Zhou Xiaohong with some amusement, then moved closer to Zhou Jincong and patted his hand to comfort him.
"Yes, doesn't my second sister-in-law blame me?" Zhou Xiaohong nodded vigorously, and then looked at her second brother and sister-in-law cautiously.
Ye Wangshu shook his head. "You made the choice yourself. You're still young, and as family, we should help you with your plans. It's not a matter of being angry or not, it's just..."
Ye Wangshu lowered his eyes and looked at Zhou Xiaohong, and Zhou Xiaohong's heart skipped a beat.
For some reason, she felt that her second sister-in-law was even more terrifying than her second brother.
"We can only help you once or twice, but not all the time. You have to learn to grow on your own. After all, it's safer to take your own path step by step."
"So, little sister, are you really determined to go to school, instead of just giving up when you encounter difficulties like an apprentice?"
"Sister-in-law, I've made up my mind. I will study hard."
Seeing Zhou Xiaohong's firm tone, Ye Wangshu nodded and said, "Just make up your mind. I'll help you keep an eye on the school. You can go out first. I have something to say to your second brother."
"Well," Zhou Xiaohong looked at Ye Wangshu with gratitude in her eyes, "Second brother and sister-in-law, I'll be out first."
