Furthermore, military marriages are difficult to break off, which is why they wanted to but held off on taking the initiative, fearing the negative repercussions of breaking off the marriage. They had originally decided to break off the marriage for Jiang Shuyao's sake, even at the risk of criticism. But now, not only Hao Yuanchao insisted, but Jiang Shuyao too. They were eager to talk to the matchmaker, and if both young people disagreed, they would be the ones to be embarrassed.
The more Jiang's mother thought about it, the more troubled she became. Seeing Song Shuyao's stubborn look, she became even angrier. Finally, she said, "I don't agree," and went back to her room without mentioning her intention to see Director Zhao. This was a sign of anger, but also a concession.
Song Shuyao breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if Jiang's mother's attitude could be shaken. Otherwise, if she was stubborn and refused to agree, it would be embarrassing. From ancient times to the present, few parents could prevail over their children, especially for someone like her who grew up halfway through her life. She had feelings for Jiang's mother but they were not deep. If she really got angry, she might be so cruel as to break up with her. If she didn't visit him in the future, she would just give him a pension. This was the worst-case scenario. Fortunately, it didn't have to get to that point.
As for Jiang's father and the others' opinions, they didn't need to consider them for now. Jiang's father was a man, more realistic and rational than Jiang's mother. Based on Song Shuyao's analysis, he did think Hao Yuanchao was a good person and might turn out well in the future, but the probability was too low, and he wasn't willing to take the gamble. Furthermore, while raising four children was difficult, raising them well was also highly rewarding. Hao Yuanchao and Jiang Shuyao were both well-regarded in character and knowledge, so the likelihood of them being raised poorly was low.
More importantly, as a man, he knows the bad nature of men. Soldiers in the army are indeed more loyal in marriage, and the possibility of cheating is small. There is no need to worry that Song Shuyao will be ignored by Hao Yuanchao after she has children. Most men value the inheritance of their own bloodline more. So after divergent thinking and out of love for his daughter, he still agreed to this marriage despite Jiang Shuyao's stubborn insistence.
As long as Jiang's parents agree, the opinions of other members of the Jiang family are not very important.
However, it was obvious that Jiang's mother still didn't change her mind so quickly. She was angry for several days and even resorted to cold violence against Song Shuyao.
Song Shuyao didn't have deep feelings for Jiang's mother, but she still had the memories of her original body and was influenced by her to some extent. She didn't want to have a cold war with Jiang's mother in the few days before getting married, nor did she want Jiang's mother to be unwell because of it. After thinking about it, she decided to ask Jiang's mother to give in and went to the department store to buy a pair of high-quality leather shoes.
No woman doesn't love gifts, but as a mother, she still feels sorry for her children's money first. She couldn't help but say to Jiang Shuyao, "Why waste this money? Take it back and return it. You want me to sell my daughter for a pair of shoes? No way!"
"Shall I buy some more?"
"you……"
Song Shuyao smiled. Although she was not used to acting like a spoiled child in front of her elders, she was still able to say soft words. "Don't be angry, okay? I really want to marry Hao Yuanchao, and I don't want you to be angry. There were male classmates who pursued me during my four years in college, but I just thought Hao Yuanchao was good. I also want to let go, but I can't." This was her true words. If she could do it and be willing to let go, she would not have come into this world after drinking too much.
"Mom." Song Shuyao called out the word sincerely. This character had been absent from her life for more than 20 years. Now that she had him, even if their feelings were not deep, she didn't want her to suffer. "Can you believe me? I can live a good life with Hao Yuanchao. Don't worry about me having a hard time. If I really have a hard time, can't I come back and complain to you?"
When Jiang's mother heard her words full of sincerity, her eyes became red again. "Why are you still so stubborn?" Her tone was mostly one of pity and sympathy.
Song Shuyao's smile became more and more sincere, and her heart was shaken for a moment. However, after hearing Jiang's mother nagging about what "she" had done in the past, her wavering heart became firm again.
Still have to leave.
Hao Yuanchao took it naturally and applied it on his face without washing it. His skillful posture made Zhan Hongjun beside him jealous. Is it really that serious? They even want to share a face towel, right? Tsk tsk, the world is going downhill, and the young people nowadays are incredible.
But he was a little envious in his heart. His hometown was also in the countryside. He got married early and married a capable rural wife. How could he be as lucky as Hao Yuanchao, who married a college student who was well-educated, beautiful and young. Compared with his wife... Stop, stop, Zhan Hongjun didn't want to make a mistake. By then, the tigress in his family would know that he dared to have other thoughts. Be careful of him. When the woman beats a man, she doesn't care about your face. A good man doesn't fight with a woman. It's not that he can't beat her, but his wife married him early. During the years when he was in the army, she took care of his parents and gave birth to children for him. He couldn't do anything to let her down. So Zhan Hongjun was envious in words, but he was very honest in his heart.
This time he was also assigned to the same military region. If nothing unexpected happened, he would stay there for more than ten or twenty years. He also planned to bring his wife and children over to live with the family. It happened that the route was the same as Hao Yuanchao's, so they took the same bus.
The transfer order is in mid-July. Although it is a bit rushed, it is still possible for me to go home.
"Do you want to take a rest first or read a book or play cards?" Hao Yuanchao asked someone to buy tickets for the sleeper car. He and Jiang Shuyao happened to be on the same bunk bed, and Zhan Hongjun was on the opposite side. Halfway through the journey, Zhan Hongjun had to get off first.
