In fact, Shen Qiusheng just doesn't want to marry into the family. What's the difference between being a son-in-law and a young wife? One depends on the mood of the parents-in-law, and the other depends on the mood of the mother-in-law and father-in-law. Which good man would marry into the family for no reason?
But now it is not a matter of whether he wants to or not. Zhong Hui has already registered for the college entrance examination. When the two were dating, Zhong Hui always boasted about how good her grades were. Shen Qiusheng did not doubt Zhong Hui's cultural level at all.
If he didn't agree to marry into the family, Zhong Hui would definitely divorce him after she got into college. The child already had the surname Zhong, so what would he have left after the divorce? His bedridden father? His lame mother? Or that shabby little house?
But if he really had to leave the house and marry into a new family, he would refuse.
His father-in-law and mother-in-law were unhappy with him, but he still had some self-awareness. Even if he married into the family, he might be kicked out. Then he would have no place to live. Where would he sleep? Under the bridge?
I still need to give money to Chen Xiasheng to support the elderly. Who are we supporting? Supporting Chen Xiasheng? Let him dream for the rest of his life!
Shen Qiusheng also felt that his brain was about to explode. In the past two days, he had been quarreling and fighting with Shen Xiasheng in the yard every day, and then he would go back to the room and hug Zhong Hui and cry. He felt that his life was too miserable.
"He's just wishful thinking." Chen Chunhua rolled her eyes. "You two are overthinking it too much. Do you think you're going to give Chen Xiasheng whatever he wants? Can't you bargain with him a little?"
Zhong Hui was embarrassed. She really felt too tired recently. She was too tired to even bother arguing with others.
She even thought that if this matter really couldn't be resolved in the next few days, she would just give up, pack up her things, move directly back to the educated youth dormitory, and go to review first. After the college entrance examination, if Shen Qiusheng was still wavering, she wouldn't wait any longer. She couldn't always let her compromise.
Coming to see Chen Chunhua today is also a last-ditch effort to save her marriage.
"You can marry Chen Qiusheng, so why can't Chen Qiusheng marry you? You're from the city, marrying into the countryside, but Chen Qiusheng, a peasant, can marry into the city. His household registration is still in the countryside, and he can't be a worker. Your family still has to support him. It's fine if you're not grateful, but you're so picky?"
When Chen Chunhua talked about her brother, it was as if she was chatting with a stranger. Looking at Zhong Hui, she thought about how she had kicked Chen Qiusheng out of her previous life and left without any connection with herself. Why was she so slow now? She didn't say anything to her angrily.
"If he doesn't want to go back to the city with you, then forget it. Your uncle is the director of the commune, and your parents are all well-known. What are you hesitating about? Can you live without Shen Qiusheng? Or will you be unable to find a man if you divorce and go back to the city?"
If she were to say, Zhong Hui might as well go back to the city and remarry, maybe she could find someone better.
Zhong Hui: ...This Third Aunt is too much. She came up and advised her to divorce?
"For matters like this, no matter how much you say, you still have to make the decision yourself. No matter how many people you ask for advice, it all comes down to your own heart." Chen Chunhua said expressionlessly, "And Chen Xiasheng, when you go back, just pull the two brothers over and talk it out together.
Alternatively, Shen Qiusheng can return to the city with you and marry into your family, and the village house and the elderly will all belong to Shen Xiasheng. If the two brothers are required to jointly support the elderly, then you might as well give up everything and go back by yourself, letting the two brothers support them on their own. It depends on their choice."
She just didn't believe that Shen Xiasheng would choose the second option under such circumstances. She was afraid that after Zhong Hui said this, he would have to persuade Shen Qiusheng to get married.
Zhong Hui sat there in a daze. She just couldn't bear to leave Shen Qiusheng, so she came to Sihe Village to find Shen Chunhua, wanting to ask if she, as her sister, had any other options to offer.
In the end, is this the only way left? Even Shen Qiusheng's relatives feel that they should go back?
"It would be best if Qiu Sheng could go to the city. It would also be a good thing for your child to grow up with both biological parents. If not, you don't have to keep dwelling on this point." Seeing her confused look, Chen Chunhua added fuel to the fire.
"Once you get into university, you will be completely different from the rest of us. Intellectuals will receive subsidies and will not have to worry about food, clothing, housing, and shelter. After graduation, you will be assigned a job and housing.
It would be even better if I could live with someone who matches you. In the future, your children can go to the school run by your company. It's free, unlike the village primary schools here. Hey, I heard there are kindergartens in the city, right?"
Zhong Hui suddenly came to her senses and looked at Chen Chunhua, "Yes, I went to kindergarten."
Chen Chunhua smiled, and this time it was genuine. "I'm so envious. It's a pity that my children weren't born into parents in the city, so they were raised in the village. It would be great if they could go to kindergarten too."
Zhong Hui understood the meaning of Chen Chunhua's words. Her parents had provided her with so many excellent conditions, but she was not a person who could be cared for. She endured hardships without any effort, making her parents uneasy.
And now, the future fate of my child depends on my own thoughts...
Chen Chunhua, like her own parents, truly stood on her side and considered things, so she could say such words. Zhong Hui's tone was a little choked with sobs.
"Third sister...thank you, I figured it out."
"Well, it's good that you've figured it out," Chen Chunhua didn't think she had done anything. She was just sitting around doing nothing, so she just said a few words from the heart.
"Since you've registered for the college entrance exam, you should study hard and strive to get into a good university. This will make your future path smoother."
…
When Chen Chunhua sent Zhong Hui out, Liang Shengdi had just returned on a tricycle. The winter bamboo shoots in the trunk of the tricycle had piled up into a small hill. On top of the hill was a small man lying on the bamboo shoots, holding on to the handrail in front with both hands tightly.
"Ouch... Ouch... Ouch Chunhua... You came to the door to pick us up... Ouch..."
Chen Chunhua's eyelids twitched a little, and she quickly went forward to pick up Lin Shuchao and put him down. "...Why are you lying like this?"
Lin Shuchao let his mother pat the mud off his body with a playful smile, "Grandma said there's no place to sit. If I lie down, the bamboo shoots won't fall, and neither will I!"
Chen Chunhua: ...They are so smart. It seems that these clothes cannot be washed clean. They should not have let Lin Shuchao wear white today!
Liang Shengdi rode her bike into the house and got off the bike, already out of breath. She glanced at Zhong Hui and said, "Hello, we have guests..."
Zhong Hui had never seen such a strange way of greeting. Before she could smile and call her "Auntie", Liang Shengdi had already rushed into the room.
"I'm starving, I'm starving..."
