Chapter 448 What's it to you?
Da Bao, while eating, said nonchalantly, "What's marriage? Is it some kind of fun thing?"
Rao Qingsong said, "If you marry my son, he will listen to you from now on. He will give you all the food and pocket money..."
When she heard that she would be given food, Da Bao's eyes lit up. She loves to eat lots of delicious food, and if someone gave her something delicious, then the marriage proposal would feel pretty good.
Huo Chenzhou couldn't stand it anymore: "Alright, stop trying to fool my daughter. She's only ten years old, what could she possibly know? She doesn't understand anything."
She didn't understand, but Rao Che did. Rao Che was very embarrassed, and he lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought.
Rao Qingsong said, "Our two families have a good relationship and will continue to have contact in the future. I think we should make our relationship even stronger through marriage."
These days, many people get engaged, so it's not a big deal. Rao Qingsong actually had his eye on not only their daughter but also their son. Unfortunately, he only had one son, otherwise he would have wanted to get engaged to both of them.
Shen Zhixia actually thought it was a good idea. Rao Che was a soft and gentle kid, while Da Bao had a strong personality. Who knows, the two of them might actually make a good couple.
But Huo Chenzhou's face was full of opposition. He said defensively, "No, no, my child is too young to talk about this. Besides, who knows what will happen in the future?"
“I just think they’re a good match. We’re friends, we know each other well, we know each other inside and out. Their circumstances are similar. Wouldn’t it be great if they were together? As parents, we’re thinking about our children. I just think it would be a good thing if they could be together,” Rao Qingsong advised.
There are so many cases of people getting engaged in advance over the years; it happens a lot in their area.
He felt that his son was a good child, and Huo Chenzhou's child was also a good child. Their family backgrounds were also quite similar, so arranging an engagement for the children would be the best thing to do.
Seeing that Shen Zhixia also liked his son so much, he thought there was hope for the future.
In fact, he had this idea the moment he first saw Huo Chenzhou's child, which is why he kept praising his son and even brought him here today. His idea was actually very simple: he wanted his son to get engaged to them.
Huo Chenzhou's tone was firm: "No, I don't agree."
In any case, he just wouldn't agree. He couldn't have his daughter. His daughter was so delicate, how could she get married so early?
Huo Chenzhou hadn't even thought about who she would marry in the future.
Rao Qingsong said, "Old Huo, this is no fun."
Huo Chenzhou not only refused, but he also didn't give a single reason.
Shen Zhixia then said, "I also think it's a bit inappropriate. Although we are the children's parents, we can't make all the decisions for them. They are too young now and don't know what kind of partner they want in the future or what kind of partner they like. Let's wait until they grow up and let them find their own partners. If they can find someone they like in the future, that would be even better."
“Otherwise, if we arrange a marriage for them at such a young age, they will likely dislike each other when they grow up and become an ill-fated couple.”
They all meant the same thing, but Shen Zhixia's way of speaking made it acceptable to people.
Rao Qingsong was still reluctant to give up: "Actually, we can get engaged first, and if they don't like each other after they grow up, we can just cancel it. It's not a big deal anyway."
This means that he wants to arrange a marriage for his daughter ahead of time.
This is outrageous!
Huo Chenzhou's eyes widened, and his face already showed some authority: "Old Rao, let me tell you, this won't do. This is a bad idea. Getting engaged in advance will be a constraint on my daughter. I want her to grow up freely and not feel constrained."
Faced with Huo Chenzhou's refusal, Rao Qingsong had no choice but to touch his nose and say helplessly, "Alright then."
However, he still told his son to get along well with Da Bao. If the two of them could spark a romance and get married, that would be the best outcome.
After Rao Qingsong left, Huo Chenzhou was still cursing: "I treated Rao Qingsong as a good brother, but he's really something, he actually coveted my daughter."
That was actually a bit ambiguous. Shen Zhixia smiled and said, "Alright, you don't need to be angry anymore. I think his son is quite nice too."
Huo Chenzhou said, "You can already tell something from a 12-year-old kid? Who knows, he might grow up to be a blond-haired bastard."
Shen Zhixia shook her head: "Probably not."
Actually, you can tell what a child will be like from a young age. Rao Che looks very well-behaved, and with Rao Qingsong keeping an eye on him, he probably won't go astray.
She would think it would be great if her daughter could find a son-in-law like that in the future, but she wouldn't interfere with her daughter's marriage. She would let her daughter date freely when she grew up.
She still supports free love, and she thinks the arranged marriages in her family are very bad and disrespectful to the children. So when Huo Chenzhou was so opposed, she didn't offer any opinions, but she still supported Huo Chenzhou in her heart.
We live in a different era now, so we don't do those old-fashioned arranged weddings anymore.
Huo Chenzhou stared at his daughter and suddenly felt a sense of crisis: "Dabao is indeed beautiful. We must be careful and not let those brats bully her."
He was a man himself, and he knew how dangerous those men were. He couldn't let his daughter be targeted.
Shen Zhixia said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, no one will dare to bully Da Bao."
Da Bao and Xiao Bao are together every day. They look soft and cuddly, but they have been training with Huo Chenzhou since they were young, so they are very strong and know some martial arts. Da Bao also has a very tough personality, so there is no need to worry about him being bullied.
Anyway, Shen Zhixia wasn't worried, but Huo Chenzhou was probably anxious about something.
Huo Chenzhou intends to eliminate all the brats.
The next day, Shen Zhixia went to play with Zhang Weihong and told her about it: "I really didn't expect that someone would want to arrange a marriage between my daughter and my child. She is still so young. I have no such idea."
Zhang Weihong said enviously, "That's because your daughter is outstanding, that's why she's being targeted."
"No, it was probably just a sudden idea of his," Shen Zhixia said.
Just then, Wang Xiaojian suddenly appeared and asked nervously, "What arranged marriage?"
Zhang Weihong glared at him and said, "What are you doing?"
Shen Zhixia said, "Wang Xiaojian is really tall, he must be 1.8 meters tall."
Wang Xiaojian is sixteen years old this year, not yet an adult, but he is really tall.
He wasn't particularly handsome, but his features were regular, and he was a spirited young man.
Zhang Weihong rolled her eyes and said, "What's the use of being tall? It's just because you eat a lot that you grow tall, but your brain doesn't grow."
Wang Xiaojian asked somewhat nervously, "Is Da Bao getting engaged?"
Zhang Weihong asked curiously, "Why are you so nervous about whether they're engaged or not? What business is it of yours?"
Wang Xiaojian said, "What? How is this none of my business?"
Zhang Weihong looked at him.
Wang Xiaojian said, "We grew up together and are very good friends. I can't let her go astray. Besides, she's so young, how could she be engaged?"
Mingming, Mingming is still waiting for Dabao to grow up, and Dabao has promised that they will get married when they grow up.
How could Da Bao get engaged to someone else?
