Mu Qing blinked. She thought that after so many things happened in the family, the old lady would not mention her brother's marriage for the time being. She did not expect that the old lady would mention her brother's marriage to her parents on the pretext of bringing good luck.
After looking at her parents twice, she asked the old lady, "Grandma, what do my parents mean?"
The old lady said angrily, "Your parents think I'm overreaching by meddling in your brother's marriage. Your brother is my eldest grandson, so what's wrong with me worrying about his marriage? Qingqing, tell me, what's wrong with Susu? Is she not worthy of your brother?"
"Your brother is a cold, big guy, like an iceberg. Such a cold and hard man should have a gentle woman like Susu to melt him. Grandma is thinking about his future happiness. Grandma is old, how bad can her vision be?"
"Your father thinks Susu is too weak, and also thinks she's too beautiful. He says beauty brings disaster. But which one of you looks like a pig? Aren't there handsome men and pretty women? You don't seem to be the cause of disaster."
Mu Qing smiled and said, "Grandma, Susu is my good friend. I don't think there's anything wrong with her. But, grandma, you wanting Susu to be your eldest grandson's wife may be wishful thinking. Not to mention that my brother really doesn't like Susu. My dad's views are quite similar to my brother's. My brother also dislikes Susu for being weak and like a bun."
"My sister Xu has already said that she will not let Susu marry far away. Our family is a million miles away from the Xu family. Sister Xu will not agree to this marriage. The girl's family has already excluded our family, so how can we be picky?"
Everyone: “…”
"Actually, my sister Xu also looks down on my brother. She thinks he's as cold as an iceberg. She's also afraid that he's got a strong fist and might commit domestic violence. She's privately reminded Susu to avoid him if she sees him."
Everyone: “…”
Lan Rui looked down on Xu Susu. When he heard that Xu Chu also disliked their family and his son, Lan Rui's face turned ugly and he felt unhappy.
Xu Chu: You are allowed to dislike my sister, but I am not allowed to dislike your son?
"Dad, don't look so gloomy. You dislike Susu, but you don't allow my sister Xu to dislike my brother. You think my brother is the best man in the world, but in the eyes of others, that may not be the case."
"Grandma, marriage is a lifelong event. My brother doesn't have a good impression of Susu. A forced marriage is not sweet. If you force them to be together, they will just be a couple of enemies. Also, this is my brother's marriage. Grandma should talk to him. If he is willing, my parents' objection will be useless. If he is not willing, even if we all agree, it will be useless."
The old lady pursed her lips and said, "Our Lan family is the richest in Wangcheng. Your brother is young and promising. A girl like Susu should find a man like your brother who can protect her for the rest of her life."
"I'll tell your brother when he gets up."
The old lady glared at her son and daughter-in-law and said, "I just like Susu to be my granddaughter-in-law!"
What she meant was that she was determined to bring Lan Zheng and Xu Susu together.
Mu Qing exchanged glances with her mother and added, "Grandma, since you want to bring my brother and Susu together, you need to give them more time to spend together. With more time together, maybe sparks will fly. Then, without Grandma urging you, they'll happily get married."
"Invite Susu to come over and play, and stay at our house for a while."
The old lady felt that her granddaughter was thoughtful, and her words and actions showed that she approved of her arrangements.
Of course, it is also because my granddaughter and Susu are good friends.
"Sister Xu won't agree. Let my brother go over and hang out when he's free. It'll be easier. Dad."
Mu Qing turned to her father and suggested, "Let my brother go to City A to develop the market, so that my brother will have the opportunity to get along with Susu." It will also allow her brother to leave Wangcheng openly and do other things.
Lan Rui's face was filled with black lines. "Qingqing, don't worry about your brother's marriage. Dad knows that you and Susu are good friends, but Susu is really not suitable for your brother."
"Dad isn't my brother, so how does he know it's not suitable? Grandma said that softness overcomes hardness. Only a girl like Susu can melt my brother, just like Dad and my mom. Who dares to say that my mom isn't gentle and generous?"
Lan Rui: “…”
What's wrong with my daughter?
Even if she was a good friend of Xu Susu, she should have known that the old lady had no good intentions in interfering in this marriage, and her daughter actually seemed to approve of it.
Lan Rui felt that he had to have a private talk with his daughter later, and told her not to help her grandmother match her son with Xu Susu just because she was a good friend of Xu Susu.
"That's right, back then you didn't want anyone else but Yi Mo."
The old lady muttered that after more than 20 years, she was still very unhappy that her eldest son insisted on marrying Shen Yimo.
In her eyes, Chen Yimo was also soft and weak, like a bun.
That is to say, now that I want to divorce, I feel a little more confident, but I am still not strong enough.
Of course, for a mother-in-law who wants to control her daughter-in-law, a daughter-in-law like Shen Yimo is still easy to control.
"You've already married a gentle wife, and you won't allow your son to marry someone gentle and generous? Xu Susu is gentle, but she's not bad in other aspects. You and your son have the same temperament."
Lan Rui: “…”
"grandmother."
Lan Min came out of the restaurant.
His father was in the hospital and his two brothers were taking care of him in the hospital. His mother had gone somewhere unknown, so Lan Min was taken care of by the old lady and lived in the main house.
Just now, when the adults were talking about Lan Zheng's marriage, Lan Min was having her breakfast in the restaurant, but she listened to everything the adults said.
"Are you full?"
The old lady asked Lan Min.
Lan Min nodded, greeted everyone present, and then walked over and sat down on the other side of the old lady, forming a challenge to Mu Qing. She also affectionately took one of the old lady's arms and said to her, "Grandma, I heard my eldest brother tell my mother that he likes Sister Xu Susu and wants my mother to help him propose to the Xu family."
Lan Min is already ten years old, and having grown up in a big, volatile family like the Lan family, she is more mature and scheming than her peers.
Although she didn't understand what love was, she knew that her elder brother liked Sister Xu Susu.
That sister is indeed very beautiful.
But my mother didn't like it.
My mother also said that Sister Xu Susu was too gentle, which was not good.
Unexpectedly, grandma wanted to arrange for elder brother Lan Zheng to marry Xu Susu, so Lan Min deliberately said that elder brother liked Xu Susu, so that uncle and others would have some competitive pressure.
If my uncle and his family firmly disagree with Brother Lan Zheng marrying Sister Xu Susu, grandma will definitely be very angry. When her biological brother marries her, grandma might even favor our third branch more.
"Grandma, if big brother doesn't like Sister Susu, why don't you let my real big brother marry her? My big brother really likes Sister Susu."
