The holy, beautiful, and brilliant light of the Goddess of Joy illuminates the earth~ There is also a deeper reason. She is not the real Jiang Shuyao. She is afraid that something bad will happen if she stays with the Jiang family at home for too long. The best way is to stay away from the Jiang family with a legitimate reason. As time goes by and they spend less time together, even if her personality changes, the Jiang family will probably think that society has tempered her character.
Therefore, after considering many realities and not wanting to go abroad and leave her homeland, Song Shuyao chose to marry Liang Li and give him another chance to start over with him.
The Jiang family obviously couldn't understand, "But he has four children to raise..."
"That's not a problem." Song Shuyao knew that the biggest reason why Jiang's parents did not agree to this marriage was because of the four children, but it seemed acceptable to her and she had no rejection in her heart. Moreover, she asked Liang Li about the situation of the four children. According to Liang Li's income and current prices, raising four children was no problem at all.
Of course, she knew raising children was no easy task. Besides providing financial support, she also needed spiritual care and even emotional investment. She was well aware of this. While she wasn't sure she could handle the emotional burden of raising children, Liang Li's description and analysis confirmed that these four children were a must. Otherwise, if they were given up for adoption, the four siblings would have to be separated. After all, who could adopt four children at once? At most, families struggling to have children or unable to bear a son could adopt one or two, and there was no guarantee of their affection. Therefore, as the four children's uncle, Liang Li couldn't give the children to anyone else. So all Song Shuyao could do was learn how to raise them.
"Although four children are a lot, the two older ones are already sensible. As the older brother, they usually help their parents a lot. Liang and Hao Yuanchao are not lazy people who don't do housework. If they are really too busy, they can ask relatives from the countryside to help take care of the children. To put it bluntly, it means raising four children under their noses. If Hao Yuanchao doesn't bring them home to raise, he will still have to pay for their care and worry about it. It's better to raise them by yourself and feel more at ease." Song Shuyao explained the reasoning.
The younger Jiang Shuhua thought it made sense, but Jiang's parents refused to be led astray by Song Shuyao. "Is this just a matter of raising a child under our noses? It's not as easy as you say! Can't you just break up with Hao Yuanchao? If you do, you don't even have to worry about the child. With our conditions, why would we need to find such a family?"
Jiang's mother was really angry. She thought Jiang Shuyao was a person who could let go, but who knew that after thinking about it for so long, she was still hanging on the tree of Hao Yuanchao!
"I don't agree to this, I absolutely disagree!"
"Military marriage cannot be abandoned."
"You..." Jiang's mother choked for a moment, then became angry again, "Do you think I'm an ignorant old country lady? A military marriage is difficult to cancel, but it's not impossible to cancel! Don't worry about it, I'll go find Director Zhao and explain it to her. I can't delay you like this." Director Zhao was the matchmaker between Hao Yuanchao and Jiang Shuyao. In that era, free love was not advocated. Hao Yuanchao and Jiang Shuyao fell in love at first sight, but they had to have a matchmaker to be together before they could be together openly. Otherwise, it would be easy for people to gossip about them. In a few years, when the atmosphere is stricter, it might even be regarded as hooliganism.
"Even if you find her, I won't back down." Song Shuyao's words stopped Jiang's mother in her tracks. "Either you marry Hao Yuanchao or become an old maid. If you're happy for me to become an old maid, then I won't marry him."
"You're going to piss me off to death!" Jiang's mother raised her hand and was about to hit Song Shuyao. Seeing this, Jiang's father hurriedly stopped her, "Let's talk it over."
"Does she look like she's going to talk nicely? She's threatening!" Jiang's mother was furious, but she didn't hit him again. "You're usually so smart and insightful, why are you so stubborn about this? Is Hao Yuanchao a good match for you? If you really marry him, life will be difficult. You'll cry, don't you understand?"
"I don't regret it." Song Shuyao spoke firmly and wanted to say something else, but when she saw the red eyes and worry hidden under the anger of Jiang's mother, she softened her heart. She was really doing it for her own good.
Thinking of this, her tone softened. "I know it's not easy to raise four children, but Hao Yuanchao is a good person. He has no problem with his character and future. His salary and allowances are also high. To put it bluntly, he has no parents, brothers or sisters-in-law above him, and no younger brothers or sisters-in-law below him. If I marry him, I won't have to endure any bullying from his mother-in-law or sister-in-law. I can be the master of the household. If I don't marry him now, I don't think I can find a better person in the future. Let alone better, it would be difficult to find someone who is almost as good as him. Even city workers have to live with their whole family and have to hand over their salary to the family. Who knows how bad things are behind the glamorous appearance?
Besides, military marriages are difficult to divorce, and soldiers are more loyal to their marriages. He's a loner, so he values family even more. So, with all these conditions, what's the big deal about raising four children? And if he didn't adopt those four children, I'd be worried about his character. What other man could be as responsible as he is?
These words hit home. Finding another person might not necessarily be better off than Hao Yuanchao. Take the Jiang family, for example. The old couple were quite open-minded and treated their five children well. After their youngest son got married, they separated them to live separately. They didn't have to live together as a family, nor did they have to hand over their wages to the family. They could save their own money and avoid such hassles. However, the old couple also had no problem interfering in their children's affairs. Filial piety could suppress any resentment. Their situation was truly rare. Most families lived together, not to mention handing over their wages, and there were all sorts of issues like mothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, and younger sisters-in-law. There were countless problems. Even if they were lucky enough to separate, they would still have to hand over most of the money to support the family. After all, single families were rare, and families with more than a dozen people were the norm.
