"Miaomiao, although it's a new society now, there's something I still want to tell you."
After Zhou Taohua returned, Chen Juan still felt a little bitter and pulled Ruan Miaomiao aside, saying, "We women must learn to respect and love ourselves."
You're not married to that person yet, so don't accept his family's kindness so easily.
They're nice to you now to lure you into their home; once you're actually inside, they'll accuse you of lacking self-respect.
Ruan Miaomiao felt a warmth in her heart after hearing Chen Juan's words, and she replied with a gentle smile, "Mom, I understand."
She knew that Chen Juan was worried that she would suffer a loss.
However, Ruan Miaomiao eats everything and never suffers a loss.
Not wanting her mother to worry, Ruan Miaomiao changed the subject: "Hey, Mom, isn't Dad supposed to be restricted from leaving his jurisdiction?"
Why did he come with you this time?
To be honest, Ruan Miaomiao wasn't surprised that Chen Juan came to visit her.
However, Ruan Miaomiao was quite surprised that Ruan Minqiang had come along.
Chen Juan was worried about not having a chance to interject and educate her daughter, so she told them about the letter Shen Qingming wrote to them.
“Shen Qingming said that your boyfriend’s family is poor and has many sisters, and that man is a member of an ethnic minority with a bad temper. Your father and I were worried about you, so we wrote an application to come and see how you were doing.”
Seeing that his wife had already spoken up, Ruan Minqiang chimed in, "Miaomiao, whatever kind of man you choose, Dad has no objection."
You could even support a gigolo father if you wanted.
But Dad can't accept you dating someone with a bad temper. You live so far away from your mom and me. What if that man mistreats you? Your mom and I won't be able to help you..."
Ruan Miaomiao was deeply moved when she heard this.
Of course, he also cursed Shen Qingming a few times: "You bastard, it seems I didn't beat you enough before, you actually dared to write a letter to my family to smear my boyfriend."
"Dad, Mom, Ayun isn't that kind of person. Shen Qingming is just talking nonsense and lying to you."
Chen Juan and Ruan Minqiang felt even more distressed when they saw that even after they had said all that, their daughter was still speaking up for that man.
Ruan Minqiang immediately began to lecture him:
"Miaomiao, you are still young, you don't understand. A man is born to stand tall and support his wife."
"But look at this guy you're dealing with, what's with that Ah Yun? Your mother and I have been here for ages, even his sister came over to say hello, but he hasn't shown up yet, leaving you to deal with your mother and me all by yourself. What is that if not cowardice?"
"dad……"
Hearing Ruan Minqiang's words, Ruan Miaomiao quickly shook her head and explained for Zhou Jingyun, "Dad, it's not that Ayun is deliberately avoiding you, he just went out to run errands a few days ago and really wasn't home..."
"snort!"
Chen Juan felt that her daughter was trying to make amends for that Ah Yun, and said with dissatisfaction, "What a coincidence?"
We rarely come here, and it just so happens that he wasn't home?
I've heard that there's usually not much to do in this village during the twelfth lunar month. Where could he possibly be busy with anything?
Ruan Miaomiao didn't know why her parents harbored such resentment towards Zhou Jingyun. She wanted to explain, but she felt that the more she explained, the less clear things became, and she felt inexplicably powerless.
“Miaomiao…”
Just as Ruan Miaomiao was racking her brains to explain to her parents, Zhou Jingyun's voice came from outside the yard.
Ruan Minqiang and Chen Juan also heard a man calling their daughter, and turned around accordingly. To their surprise, they saw Zhou Jingyun, the ambitious young man they had met with Li Yaohua, the provincial party secretary of Qian Province, the day before.
Clearly, Zhou Jingyun was also shocked to see Ruan Minqiang and his wife.
However, Zhou Jingyun quickly realized what was happening and immediately stepped forward with a smile: "Hello, Uncle and Aunt, so you are Miaomiao's parents!"
"Hello, Comrade Zhou!"
Chen Juan and Ruan Minqiang had a good impression of Zhou Jingyun and stood up to greet him.
Zhou Jingyun grasped Ruan Minqiang's hand and introduced himself sincerely: "Hello, Uncle, my name is Zhou Jingyun, and I am Comrade Ruan Miaomiao's boyfriend."
"Object?"
"Ah Yun?"
"Zhou Jingyun?"
...
Chen Juan and Ruan Minqiang muttered a few words before finally connecting Zhou Jingyun and Ruan Miaomiao's partners.
Ruan Miaomiao keenly sensed something was amiss from the three people's conversation and immediately asked, "Do you know each other?"
“We met briefly in the provincial capital yesterday.”
As a junior, Zhou Jingyun began to explain.
After listening to Zhou Jingyun's words, Ruan Miaomiao finally showed a look of sudden realization.
Chen Juan and Ruan Minqiang felt something was off: their original intention in coming here was to take their daughter back to Haicheng and find her a new partner.
However, now that they know their daughter's boyfriend is Zhou Jingyun, the advanced young man whom they and Li Yaohua praised countless times yesterday, they suddenly feel that their daughter's boyfriend is not bad at all.
This time, my daughter doesn't seem so blind anymore.
Zhou Jingyun didn't know Ruan Minqiang and Chen Juan's identities yesterday, and only greeted them politely. Now that she knows they are her boyfriend's parents, she has to do everything she can to chat with them.
The more Chen Juan talked about it, the more she liked Zhou Jingyun, just like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
Even Ruan Minqiang was extremely satisfied with Zhou Jingyun, feeling that his daughter had finally found the right partner this time.
In particular, when it came time for dinner, Zhao Cuihong, along with Zhou Dujuan and Zhou Taohua, brought a table full of dishes, which made Ruan Minqiang and Chen Juan feel the warmth and thoughtfulness of the Zhou family even more.
After being satisfied with her future son-in-law, Chen Juan no longer felt offended by Zhao Cuihong's help with cooking. Instead, she thought to herself: "My daughter has such a considerate mother-in-law. Her life will be much better after she marries into the family."
Moreover, both of her sisters-in-law seem to like their daughter quite a bit, and they don't seem like the type to cause trouble in the future.
Most importantly, this Zhou Jingyun is not only handsome, tall, and capable, but he is also incredibly considerate of his daughter, to the point that he could be described as a filial son and grandson.
In just one day, Chen Juan and Ruan Minqiang's mindset underwent a complete transformation...
"Uncle Ruan, Uncle Ruan, Aunt Chen, Aunt Chen..."
Just as the family was sitting around the honeycomb briquette stove, eating salt-roasted pumpkin seeds and chatting, a commotion came from outside the yard.
Nguyen Min Quang's guards all stood up warily, staring at the direction of the courtyard gate.
Ruan Miaomiao, on the other hand, immediately recognized who was shouting.
With a cold smile, Ruan Miaomiao got up and walked towards the courtyard gate: This bastard, I haven't even gone to teach him a lesson yet, and he's already delivered himself to my door.
Zhou Jingyun didn't know who was outside the door at first, but after seeing Miaomiao's expression, he instantly understood.
He followed his partner outside: "That bastard dares to slander me, I'll make him pay!"
