Shen Changchuan hesitated for a moment, "Is what you know wrong?"
"Stop it! Your daughter is all grown up now, and you, as her father, no longer know what she's thinking."
"Su Rui's mother and your husband have already discussed how much the bride price should be." Su Zhaohai wasn't lying about this; Su Rui's mother really had said it, and even said that the bride price didn't need to be brought back, which made Wen Shujuan very happy.
Shen Changchuan shook his head with a smile, no one could see the anger in his heart, "When a daughter grows up, a father naturally has to worry about her."
The kids who grew up in the courtyard all seemed to be of good character to me. I asked my daughter Ruomei about them. She told me about their strengths and weaknesses, but when it came to your son, Ruomei said, "Dad, I'd rather marry a blind man than a cripple into the Su family."
I was completely baffled. What did your Suri do to upset my daughter like that?!
Su Zhaohai had to suppress his anger. Did they think a blind or lame person was better than his son? "We can't understand young people's affairs; maybe they're just saying one thing and meaning another!"
Shen Changchuan: "Actually, if my daughter agrees, I would really like to become in-laws with you."
However, we definitely can't become in-laws.
I never cared that Ruomei wasn't a boy, but his mother was different.
The mother and daughter were at odds because of this.
Whenever her mother says something about going east, our daughter will definitely say something about going west.
Sigh! Ruomei hasn't been home for several months since she went to university.
Don't laugh at me, but I buy all of my daughter's clothes because her mother never cares.
What could I possibly buy? Turns out, my daughter was dressed like a little boy when she was little.
This is true; everyone can see it.
Everyone knows his family isn't on good terms. So, it turns out Old Shen wouldn't go back, and now even his daughter isn't going back?
"Later, I always asked Lao Fang's wife to help me buy clothes for my daughter."
Su Zhaohai was taken aback; Wen Shujuan had so confidently promised everything. She even said that Lao Shen wouldn't listen to her, and that her daughter was her own. Was she just lying?
Actually, the Su family had elevated Wen Shujuan to such a high level that her words no longer carried weight and she couldn't speak her mind.
Su Zhaohai: "Su Rui and Ruomei get along quite well..."
"Old Su, I have to ask you, who told you that? My son isn't young anymore, and I've been eyeing pretty girls myself."
At the last social gathering, I asked my wife about it. She said Ruomei doesn't have a boyfriend yet! Your son is hanging around Ruomei, but she hasn't even given him a second glance.
This is definitely true, I'm telling you, don't be so naive just because she seems like a nice girl.
"I have a son, I won't do that," Old Fang interjected.
Their long-standing relationship meant they spoke quite casually in private. Normally, how could a secretary speak to a military commander like that?
Shen Changchuan: "You can stay out of here. No one can deny what my Ruomei didn't agree to." (A double entendre.)
Secretary Fang knew that Old Shen wasn't angry about Su Zhaohai's shamelessness.
Su Zhaohai's actions precisely demonstrate that his son's situation has made him panic.
Old Shen was angry with Wen Shujuan. She dared to mention the bride price even though Ruomei hadn't agreed. Su Zhaohai definitely wasn't lying about this; he wouldn't be that stupid. Wen Shujuan must have promised something else, otherwise Su Zhaohai wouldn't have so rashly brought up Ruomei.
Old Shen continued to chat and laugh with everyone, and no one could tell that he was unhappy.
