Chapter 505 It's settled
From the moment Xu Ying made the call until the matter was resolved, it took only two days.
"Comrade Xu, we've taken care of the person. Don't worry, Cui Yuxia has already taken the money from her family and run away. Given how her parents treated her, she probably won't be back anytime soon."
After giving her report with trepidation, Mrs. Fang glanced at her equally anxious parents, licked her lips, and asked, "...Should we have someone keep an eye on Cui Yuxia?"
"No need, let's leave it at that," Xu Ying said calmly.
Mrs. Fang repeatedly said, "Okay, okay, then my parents and my two children..."
"What do I have to do with your family?" Xu Ying asked back.
Mrs. Fang immediately understood her meaning and her face lit up with joy. "Thank you, thank you, Comrade Xu."
After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Fang wiped the sweat from her forehead and shook her head at her parents.
"It's alright now, the Xu family won't target us anymore."
The two elders breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. Fang Jiachang is a real menace. After a while, we'll find a pretext to fire his clerk as well. It's not like we can't afford to support an idle person."
Mrs. Fang nodded.
“It’s safer to keep an eye on him. If it weren’t for the fact that his mistakes would affect our two children, I would have divorced him as soon as possible and sent him as far away as possible.”
“If you don’t want to face him, I’ll throw him into the mountains and have someone watch over him,” Mrs. Fang’s father said, frowning.
Mrs. Fang's eyes lit up slightly. "Can the person we found be reliable?"
“Yes, I did. When I was young, I went to the countryside. His mother had a difficult childbirth, and I was the one who took her to the clinic. I saved both his and his mother’s lives. So I left her with him and let him take care of her,” Mrs. Fang’s father said.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Fang immediately nodded, "Okay, Dad, you can arrange for him to go there. I really don't want to see him even once. Seeing him reminds me of his affairs with several women. It's disgusting."
"Okay, I'll make the call in a bit. I'll send the person over in three months at the latest."
The family of three hit it off immediately.
Fang Jiachang was still fantasizing that once the storm had passed, his father-in-law would transfer him back. But after waiting and waiting, at the beginning of the third month, he was sent to a more remote mountain village to serve as the village secretary because of a small mistake.
Although he was called the village secretary, the villagers didn't listen to him at all and lived in misery, a life worse than death.
Having witnessed her parents' favoritism, Cui Yuxia ran away in a fit of rage. She originally intended to stay wherever the train stopped, but upon hearing people on the train discussing how the South was teeming with money, she decided to take the train to the South.
On the other side, Xu Ying hung up the phone and took the initiative to explain her relationship with Su Min'an. She didn't need her parents to investigate his background; she told them in detail what she had previously investigated.
Xu's father and mother exchanged a glance.
Mr. Xu frowned first and said, "Li Banxia is a reliable person, and she'd be fine as your mother-in-law. But this Su Min'an only earned a first-class merit. After being discharged from the military, he can only start from scratch. He has a low starting point and no education. To be honest, he's not as qualified as that university professor your mother told you about before..."
Xu's mother nodded in agreement.
“…Young lady, why don’t you try dating both of them?” Mr. Xu tentatively suggested.
Xu Ying smiled at her parents and asked them, "Mom and Dad, Zheng Huaixin is well-off, but what good are his advantages? That university professor comes from a poor family, don't you know perfectly well what he's up to? Who can guarantee he won't be the next Zheng Huaixin?"
"this……"
Mentioning Zheng Huaixin upset Xu's father, who didn't know how to comfort her, so he turned to look at Xu's mother.
Xu's mother sighed and said, "If you think it's not suitable, your father and I will help you find someone else, but this Su Min'an is really not suitable..."
What does "suitable" mean?
Xu Ying smiled and said, "To be honest, Su Min'an is the second person who has made me think about marriage. If it were someone else, I don't know when I would want to get married. Are you sure you want me to keep putting it off? I'm already thirty-two. Even if I get married and have a baby next year, I'll be considered an older mother."
Mr. and Mrs. Xu looked at each other and sighed in unison.
Xu's father asked, "You're so much older than Su Min'an, would Li Banxia be willing?"
“This is a private matter between me and Su Min’an. Li Banxia said that as long as I’ve thought it through and you have no objections, she won’t interfere.”
Xu's mother frowned even more.
“You’re marrying into their family, and they’re the beneficiaries, so of course she won’t object. Yingzi, are you sure it’s not Su Min’an?”
She felt a little guilty thinking about what happened to Li Banxia's eldest daughter-in-law, fearing that the two sisters-in-law would become estranged. If the two sisters-in-law were not on good terms, her daughter would not have a good life.
She had heard from the women in the compound who had sisters-in-law that some of them would exaggerate and add fuel to the fire, and then they would put a bad word to Yingzi's mouth, making her daughter's life...
Xu's mother became increasingly worried.
Xu Ying laughed, "Mom, what are you saying? Who's the beneficiary? Isn't our family just looking at how young they are and wanting to have a child through artificial insemination?"
Xu's father and mother were both very embarrassed.
Mr. Xu glared at his daughter, "You, you... how could a girl like you say such a thing?"
Xu Ying lowered her head and coughed lightly twice.
Seeing that her daughter had made up her mind, Xu's mother sighed deeply.
She glanced at Xu's father, "...How about we give Yingzi a bigger dowry later? They say a woman three years older than her husband is like holding a gold brick, and Yingzi is six years older, so let's let her hold two bricks?"
Xu Ying's eyes lit up. "Mom and Dad, you don't object anymore?"
When Xu's mother saw a smile instantly appear on her daughter's face, she glared at her playfully.
He said, "Your father and I trust Li Banxia's character. Although we don't know much about Su Min'an, judging from his selfless act of saving his comrades and the fact that he saved you and Le Bao'er before, his character should be fine. As for anything else, our family has it all!"
Mr. Xu nodded, "That's right! Your mother and I, these two old bones, can still support you for another ten or twenty years. By then, your children will be grown up..."
When she talked about her children, Xu Ying's smile deepened.
“Su Min’an said that no matter how many children I have, they will all take our family name.”
Mr. Xu's eyes lit up immediately, and he smiled and said, "We don't need many, just one is fine, boy or girl, we're not picky."
Xu's mother glanced at her husband's eyes, which were full of longing for his grandchildren, smiled, and nodded.
Xu Ying laughed, "Then I'll try my best to have two, one for each of us, regardless of gender?"
Xu's father nodded repeatedly.
Xu's mother said, "I remember that Su Min'an and his older brother Su Guotai are twins. His older brother has a pair of fraternal twins. Yingzi, you have to be careful. Their family has a twin gene. You might get pregnant with twins too."
Xu Ying was taken aback. "Really?"
Thinking of Le Bao'er's face, which was exactly the same as Mingwa's, Xu Ying smiled and said, "It's not impossible to have two children together."
How adorable are two children with the same little face!
Mr. Xu was delighted and repeatedly said yes.
"How about we find some time to meet with Li Banxia and finalize this matter?"
