Volume 1, Chapter 100 Engagement? ? ?
Sheng Wanze, who was far away in the military area, sneezed several times. When Pan Yue saw it, she thought he had a cold.
"Ah~"
"Wanze, do you have a cold?"
Pan Yue went over and touched his forehead. He didn't have a fever, so why was he sneezing non-stop?
"fine."
"Ahh!!!"
———
When Mr. Sheng found out that Gu Tingxiao had tricked his daughter away, he was extremely angry.
When he thought that it was his son who brought the thief back, he instantly wanted to sever the father-son relationship.
Others raise sons to take care of them in their old age, to carry on the family line, and to serve them.
As for his adopted son, not only did he go off to join the army and stay away from home for a year, but now he has even harmed his own daughter.
How could he give birth to such a thing!
Father Sheng looked at his family members and knew from their expressions that he had already known everything. It turned out that he was the only one who was kept in the dark.
"I don't agree with this!"
Grandpa Sheng glanced at Father Sheng and shut him up with one sentence: "It's not your relationship, it's useless if you don't agree!"
When Mr. Sheng heard this, he felt so bitter that he looked at his family with a reproachful look on his face.
"You...you all conspired to hide this from me, your father. You don't even take me seriously!"
Father Sheng sat down on the stool, and Grandpa Sheng looked at his son with an expression that seemed to indicate he didn't know what to say.
I repeated to myself several times: This is my biological child, my biological child!
"You're just too stupid to see it."
"Stop acting stupid."
Grandpa Sheng attacked Father Sheng mercilessly, his expression showing one of disgust.
The despised father Sheng: "..."
When Mr. Sheng heard this, he was a little confused. How could he know this?
He just watched his daughter go to and from get off work every day, and there was nothing unusual about her!
His daughter was very well-behaved and she would stroll between home and the cotton mill every day.
Either I would go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things, pick up some firewood at the foot of the mountain, or go home to cook some meals to keep the two old people company.
He had never seen a girl more sensible than his daughter.
His every move was watched by others, and he had to explain where he went. Could he have imagined hiding such a big thing?
Ever since his daughter got a job, he didn't want her to get married so soon.
Especially if you marry someone casually, even though your family conditions are not as good as those in high positions, they are not bad either!
A family of workers, with a harmonious family life. No family’s conditions are better than theirs, right?
If we really want to compare with those who have higher status, his son's position as battalion commander is at least an official, right?
What Mr. Sheng didn't want most was for his daughter to become a military wife. His own son was a soldier and couldn't come home once a year. So his daughter would have to wait for her husband to return home as a military wife.
He admitted that the soldiers had good conditions, and he admired and respected them from the bottom of his heart!
But his son has been working hard for the country and has not been home for many years. His family in Chengdu can only miss and worry about him.
He knew too well the pain of being a military dependent, and he didn't want his other child to fall into such a situation.
But now his daughter has chosen the career that he most disapproves of, and she is going to marry so far away.
He wanted to keep his daughter in Chengdu. There were many good families in Chengdu, so there was no need for her to marry to Kyoto!
If something happens to their daughter, or she suffers any injustice at her husband's house, how can they support her since they are so far away in Chengdu?
When a girl gets married, her greatest support is her parents' family. He doesn't want his daughter to face the unknown alone.
"No! I don't agree!"
Mr. Sheng's attitude was very clear. Mother Sheng glanced at him and knew his concerns.
She has also thought about these questions. As a mother, she understands better the situation of a woman after marriage and when she arrives at her husband's family.
"I heard from Yan'er that Xiao Gu's brothers have already started families, and they are just waiting for him to get married before they can separate."
When Mr. Sheng heard this, he raised his eyelids, but still had a sullen face and said nothing.
"Besides, Xiao Gu's position allows him to apply to accompany the army. When Yan'er is in the army, there won't be any problems with the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
Mother Sheng told her family about the situation and she thought Xiao Gu was really a good person.
The main purpose was to get Sheng's father to give in. It wasn't that Sheng's father disagreed, he just felt uncomfortable.
Sure enough, when Mr. Sheng heard these words, he secretly glanced at Mother Sheng, but still did not express his opinion.
But his ears were obviously perked up, waiting for Sheng's mother to continue speaking.
"Xiao Gu and Xiao Ze are in the same military district. When Yan'er goes to join the army, she will have her brother and sister-in-law with her."
"Besides, when we retire and move there, our daughter will be closer to us."
"It's just a few years of separation, and the ending is good."
Mother Sheng had already made plans. Once she gave birth to these two children, she would definitely be inseparable from them for the rest of her life.
She wanted to be around both children, if not to be around at least to be closer.
If the child has any problems, she can help.
She was originally conflicted, but when she thought that Xiao Gu was in the same military region as her son, she agreed very much.
"My daughter-in-law is right."
Grandma Sheng thought so too. The four elders would definitely stay wherever the children were in the future.
She was also worried that her granddaughter would marry in Chengdu. If her family went to the military region in the future, wouldn't her granddaughter be left alone?
A short period of companionship was exchanged for a long period of separation, and she felt heartbroken just thinking about it.
It would be better to let my granddaughter have a short separation in exchange for a long period of companionship.
When Mr. Sheng heard this, he said nothing. He just kept his head down and frowned. But everyone in the family knew that he had acquiesced.
The protagonist Sheng Wanyan was listening to the family's conversation. Why didn't everyone ask her when she would get married?
She hasn't even gotten married yet, so how can you think about the misery she will experience in her life?
"Yan'er, you are 21 this year, and Xiao Gu is 27 this year."
"What are your plans?"
Grandpa Sheng looked at his granddaughter, and he could see clearly that his granddaughter was not yet serious about getting married.
But Xiao Gu is already 27 years old, an old man and a soldier. There is no reason for him to keep waiting like this.
What's more, his granddaughter is already 21 years old. Which 21-year-old girl is not married at this age?
Some things need to be settled earlier, which will be better for everyone.
"Master, we are dating with the purpose of getting married."
"It's just that we don't get along much..."
Sheng Wanyan also expressed her attitude, she was not a scumbag, but she still needed to know more about Gu Tingxiao.
Grandpa Sheng nodded when he heard this. There was nothing wrong with what his granddaughter said. If one rushes into marriage without knowing each other well enough, there will be no regret later.
"You two have been dating for half a year and have been exchanging letters frequently. You know the situation well."
"Xiao Gu only has so much vacation time a year. It would be bad for both of us if we delay any further."
"I think the two families can have a meal together first and arrange the marriage first, what do you think?"
Everyone in the family looked at Sheng Wanyan. Sheng Wanyan thought about it and nodded. She also knew the special nature of Gu Tingxiao's job.
