Ji Xingguo's brows were furrowed so deeply that they could trap a mosquito between them.
He glared at Ji Wanmei: "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Ji Wanmei crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow: "I'd like to ask you to put yourself in my shoes. Since you're so concerned about your daughter's life, you need to take a longer-term view. When choosing a partner for me, you shouldn't just consider their character, appearance, job, education, family background, and social status. You should also consider their parents' upbringing, their grandparents' background, what their ancestors did for eighteen generations, whether their industry has a future, whether they have siblings, and what if they fight over the inheritance later? What if their parents are as old-fashioned and traditional as you, and they prefer sons to daughters? What if they have a daughter but insist on having a son? We live in an era of one-child families!"
"Enough, enough, stop talking, it's giving me a headache." Ji Xingguo said with a dark face, "Aren't you still blaming your father for driving Lei Tingjun away?"
Ji Wanmei remained noncommittal, only saying, "Although his family background is not good, he has been independent and self-reliant since he was a child. He can do all kinds of housework and physical labor. He is also a good cook, very diligent, and can do all kinds of housework. When we go out, he never lets me carry heavy things, and he never lets me touch any dirty or tiring work."
"Moreover, he is exceptionally intelligent. I encouraged him to take the college entrance exam, and he passed it in just ten months. Moreover, he ranked first in his major."
"He started from scratch, without stealing, robbing, or cheating. He relied on his own abilities, taking one step at a time, to achieve what he has today. It only took him a little over a year. Doesn't that prove his excellence?"
"Moreover, whatever I want to do, he will prioritize my wishes and absolutely support me, both spiritually and practically, as well as financially."
"As long as I need him, no matter what urgent things he has to do, he will drop everything and come to my side immediately."
"Besides, his parents passed away early, and he doesn't keep in touch with his only uncle much. If I get together with him in the future, I can make all the decisions about things at home."
“I never asked him for anything, but he took the initiative to hand over his monthly salary to me for safekeeping. The audio-visual store I opened in East China cost me about 10,000 yuan in capital, and he paid for the majority of it.”
“Last time you were there, you said so many hurtful things to him, but he didn’t say a single word of complaint about you in front of me. He said he wouldn’t see me, and he really didn’t.”
"These days, have you ever seen someone who keeps their promises so much?"
Ji Wanmei didn't care whether her father wanted to listen or not; she just kept lecturing him, determined to make him understand.
Ji Xingguo had originally lit a wok to cook vegetables, and he was still holding a spatula in his hand.
After listening to Ji Wanmei's words, he frowned and scrutinized her for a long time: "In your heart, is Lei Tingjun really that good?"
"Anyway, in this world, besides you, he's the one who treats me the best." Ji Wanmei raised her chin and smiled.
