Chapter 438 Will Goudan’s girlfriend’s parents come?
As soon as Zhou Yong finished speaking, Li Baotian glanced at his son-in-law, then laughed and scolded: "Stop being so weird here..."
Li Caiyun glanced at the father-in-law and son-in-law, and she changed the subject while pulling the grass on the ridge: "Dad, how is my grandfather?"
Yesterday, Li Caiyun wanted to visit the seriously ill Li Baoshan. However, due to receiving clients, she returned home late and therefore did not go to Li Hongjun's house.
When hearing his daughter mention his elder brother, the smile on Li Baotian's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a sad look.
"Your uncle will probably be here soon."
Li Baoshan is over 90 years old and suffers from many diseases. He is now extremely thin and cannot sleep all night. Death is a relief for him now.
But as children, whether it is Li Hongjun, Li Hongliang or Li Caixia, they are all actively giving Li Baoshan medical treatment, just wanting him to live one more day.
However, their filial piety made Li Baoshan live with illness for many years. To be honest, sometimes Li Baotian felt that since his elder brother was in such a condition, it would be better to give up treatment.
Li Caiyun felt very uncomfortable after hearing what her father said, and Zhou Yong echoed his father-in-law's words.
Based on Li Baoshan's current condition, Zhou Yong did not recommend that he continue with treatment, mainly because it was too painful.
The father-in-law and son-in-law started chatting about this topic, and Li Baotian said to Zhou Yong and Li Caiyun: "If Dad's health becomes like your uncle's, you two must not treat him. It is better to let him pass away in a dignified manner..."
Now Li Baoshan can't move at all, and he has to rely on being served for his eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. Sometimes, when Li Hongjun is not at home, only his daughter-in-law can serve him.
Li Baotian thought that if he reached that point, it would be better for him to die so as to avoid suffering.
Li Caiyun's eyes fell on her father: "Dad, what are you talking about?"
Li Baotian smiled and said, "Everyone will die sooner or later. It's just a matter of whether to die sooner or later. Dad has already let it go..."
Even though Li Baotian was telling the truth, his daughter Li Caiyun, who was in her forties, still couldn't bear to hear these words.
Zhou Yong pursed his lips and pulled away the grass on the ridge, his eyes becoming increasingly complex.
Li Caiyun didn't like this topic very much, feeling it was too sad and depressing, so she changed the subject again.
The three of them chatted without delaying their work at all, and they returned home at six o'clock.
Breakfast was already on the dining table, so they went into the house, washed their hands and started eating.
Zhang Guifang paused while eating and said, "Look at my memory. Goudan called home just now and said he would bring his girlfriend back at the end of the month..."
Li Caiyun became nervous when she heard this: "Mom, are Goudan's girlfriend's parents coming?"
Zhang Guifang frowned slightly: "Goudan didn't say anything, and I forgot to ask."
Li Caiyun was not in the mood to eat. She thought for a moment and said, "I'll call Goudan later to ask about the situation. If Goudan's girlfriend's parents are coming, our family must make good preparations..."
Zhou Yong glanced at the overly nervous Li Caiyun, and said with a smile: "It is estimated that the girl will come to our house first to get acquainted with the family, and her parents may not come, so you don't have to make it a grand ceremony..."
Li Caiyun glanced at Zhou Yong and said, "Look at what you said. My daughter-in-law has come to our house, so as a mother-in-law, I naturally have to make it more grand. This shows my respect for Goudan's partner..."
Zhou Yong smiled, with a hint of pampering in his tone: "It's up to you, do whatever you want."
Zhou Kerou pouted: "Mom, as far as I know, my eldest brother's girlfriend is not very good. I heard that she is a troublemaker. Moreover, my eldest brother's girlfriend's parents really dislike my eldest brother's background and always use the fact that he is from the countryside to make trouble..."
Li Caiyun was stunned, and Zhou Yong's eyes fell on his daughter.
"Nan Nan, who told you these things?"
Zhou Yong and Li Caiyun only knew that Li Jingchu was dating a girl, and they knew nothing about the girl's family situation, personality, or appearance.
It’s not their fault as parents, it’s Li Jingchu who didn’t tell them about these things.
Since this was the first person Li Jingchu was dating, whether the relationship could last long was another matter, so Zhou Yong and Li Caiyun did not ask about those things.
Zhou Kerou bit her lip and suddenly realized that she had said something she shouldn't have said. She swallowed and slowly lowered her head.
Li Jingan on the side looked at the situation and the boy took over the conversation.
"Mom, it was my second brother who told us these things, otherwise how would my second sister know these things..."
After graduating from university, the brothers Li Jingchu and Li Jingen both stayed in the capital to work.
The year before last, Li Jingchu met his current partner at his workplace, and they quickly developed into a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
Because the girl has a hukou in the capital and her parents both work in government agencies, they don't want their daughter to marry a rural man.
Although Li Jingchu was a college student and had a good job in the capital, he still did not catch the eyes of the girl's parents.
"What's wrong with the rural people? Without them, the people in the city would starve to death."
Zhang Guifang was unhappy and very dissatisfied with what he said.
Li Baotian frowned and agreed: "That's right. Besides, our family conditions are not bad. The only thing we lack is a city hukou..."
Li Caiyun was no longer in the mood, and her excitement gradually dissipated.
"What a kid Goudan is! If his parents don't like him, why did they bring him home?"
Zhou Yong's eyes dropped. He said, "Gousheng may not know all the inside information. I will call Goudan later to ask about this matter..."
Although Zhou Yong and Li Caiyun do not interfere in their children's love affairs, as parents, they still need to ask about some things to prevent their children from going astray.
Li Caiyun was upset after the meal. After the meal, she went to work at the brick factory. Zhou Yong thought for a while, sat on the sofa, picked up the landline phone, and dialed the number of Li Jingchu's unit.
The story was pretty much as Zhou Kerou had described, but Li Jingchu repeatedly stressed that they had feelings for each other and neither of them wanted to break up.
Therefore, despite her parents' opposition, Li Jingchu's girlfriend decided to come back with him to meet her future in-laws. If possible, they planned to get married in November.
Of course, this marriage is not going to be approved by the girl’s parents. This is something the two of them have discussed.
After ending the call, Zhou Yong raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows. Zhang Guifang looked at her son-in-law, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Li Baotian couldn't hold back: "Zhou Yong, what did Goudan say on the phone?"
Zhou Yong looked at his father-in-law and told him everything.
Zhang Guifang couldn't help but sigh: "Marriage is a major event in life, how can it not be approved by the girl's parents?"
Li Baotian agreed: "That's right, we can't let them do that."
Zhou Yong remained silent. After a moment, he said, "Mom and Dad, let's talk about this matter after we see Goudan's girlfriend in person!"
On the phone, in order to get Zhou Yong to agree to their marriage, Li Jingchu praised his girlfriend like a flower!
As a person who has experienced this, how could Zhou Yong not understand his son's intention?
That's why Zhou Yong agreed that Li Jingchu could bring his partner home, and as for marriage, they would talk about it after they came back.
Zhang Guifang sighed: "If I had said so, we shouldn't have let Goudan bring his girlfriend home. Otherwise, his girlfriend's parents would know about this and blame us..."
