After Ling Xiaotian forcibly took control of her body, He Jingjing's soul was slightly damaged, so that after she woke up from her coma, she could not remember what had happened in the past half day.
After Ling Xiaotian and Xie Hanmei reached an agreement, he hid back in He Jingjing's sea of consciousness and "played dead". Anyway, Ling Xiaotian had planned to give up He Jingjing a long time ago. Now Ling Xiaotian placed his hopes on Xie Hanmei, hoping that Xie Hanmei could find a better body for him. He was really fed up with He Jingjing. Every time he saw her doing something stupid, Ling Xiaotian wanted to die first.
"Alright, alright! Stop talking and go pack up." Wu Xiuyun waved her hand unhappily and sent He Jingjing away. If it weren't for her brother-in-law's job, Wu Xiuyun wouldn't have "picked up" such a fool as He Jingjing.
However, being stupid has its advantages. People who are too smart are also difficult to control. Wu Xiuyun could only comfort herself in this way.
At the same time, two uninvited guests came to Zhao Qingshan's home in Kyoto City early this morning.
The visitors were Feng Xueying and Wu Xiuli, a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. After Feng Xueying got better, she liked to visit people everywhere. However, this was the first time Feng Xueying had come to visit the Zhao family since they moved to Kyoto City.
Zhao Qingshan and his family had just finished breakfast. Zhao Guohui and his wife had gone to work, and the grandchildren were all playing in the backyard, making snowmen. Zhao Qingshan had been playing with the children, but when he heard Aunt Wu say that there were guests, he brushed off the snow and went to the living room.
In the living room, Feng Xueying and Wu Xiuli sat drinking tea, but their eyes glanced at the surrounding furnishings.
The furniture in the Zhao family's living room was all rosewood, a simple yet elegant touch. For the first time, Feng Xueying blushed at the canned fruit gifts she brought her.
In Feng Xueying's mind, the Zhao family had always been rustic, down-home folks. Even though Zhao Qingshan was a doctor at Renhe Hospital and Zhao Guohui and his wife had started a company, in Feng Xueying's mind, the Zhao family had simply been elevated from rustic folks to nouveau riche. Unlike the Wen family, they had always been at the top of the heap, considered a family of officials.
Feng Xueying had been in poor health for the past few years, and Wen Yiran never told her about what was happening outside, so as not to upset her. Therefore, Feng Xueying only had a general idea of the Zhao family's changes, and had no idea that the current Zhao family was very different from what it was six years ago.
Feng Xueying originally thought that with Wen Yiran's status, their Wen family should be looking down on Zhao Qingshan from a high position, but now it seems that this is not the case. The courtyard house of Zhao Qingshan's family, both in terms of area and value, is several levels higher than the small Western-style building of their Wen family.
Although Zhao Qingshan had a smile on his face, he was puzzled in his heart. In all these years, this was the first time Zhao Qingshan had seen Feng Xueying smiling at him. If Feng Xueying hadn't been sitting next to Wu Xiuli, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Wen family, Zhao Qingshan would have thought he had recognized the wrong person.
"My dearest, I came here today to discuss something with you." Feng Xueying drank another glass of water and felt that the water in her stomach was almost coming up her throat. However, she had been sitting there for half an hour, and Zhao Qingshan had not said a word. Apart from drinking water, Feng Xueying really didn't know how to start a conversation.
"Sister-in-law, just tell me if you have something to say! As long as it is something I, Old Zhao, can do, I will never be vague about it." Zhao Qingshan picked up the teacup in his hand, slowly took a sip of strong tea, and slowly swallowed it before he opened his mouth to respond.
As the saying goes: No one comes to visit someone for no reason. Feng Xueying has always been a snob. It was a first for Feng Xueying to come to the Zhao family, a family of such low status, on her own initiative.
However, Zhao Qingshan, a man of great experience, didn't make his promises too confidently, but rather spoke vaguely. What did he mean by "something he could do"? It was something he said he could do, and something he said he couldn't do.
"My in-laws~! Look, my eldest grandson has been missing for so long, and I don't even know if he's still alive. The marriage between our two families..." Feng Xueying's eyes were shining. If Wu Xiuli hadn't been reminding her in her ears these days, Feng Xueying almost forgot that there was such a good way for the marriage between the Wen and Zhao families to go. Wen Ziqing has always been dull and unpopular, unlike Ziyun, who is sweet-mouthed and capable. Not only does he have good academic performance, but he is also very good at writing. He has published articles in newspapers at a young age! The Wen and Zhao families are getting engaged, and Zhao Qingshan is considering the face of her husband Wen. It's rare that Ziyun likes him, so Zhao Qingshan should have no objection to changing the engagement partner, right?
"Ziqing has been doing fine! Didn't Brother Wen tell sister-in-law? Or did sister-in-law come here this time to cancel the engagement?" Zhao Qingshan interrupted Feng Xueying before she finished speaking. To be honest, after Zhao Qingshan talked with Zhou Yuanyuan a few days ago, he was not so eager for this marriage with the Wen family. If it weren't for Wen Yiran's thoughts, Zhao Qingshan actually wanted to cancel the engagement. It was the lack of consideration of them, the elders, that put the children in such an embarrassing situation. Yuanyuan was right, Ziqing treated her well before, probably out of the love of a brother for his sister. After all, six years ago, Ziqing was only twelve or thirteen years old!
"No, I want..." Feng Xueying waved her hand. She wanted to change the engagement to Zhou Yuanyuan and her Wen Ziyun! How could Zhao Qingshan be so stupid? He interrupted her before she could finish her words?
"That's good. Sister-in-law, I know this marriage was not a good match back then, but Brother Wen has always insisted, and I can't go against Brother Wen's wishes too much, right?" Zhao Qingshan said a few more words before Feng Xueying finished speaking.
Zhao Qingshan only agreed to Zhou Yuanyuan and Wen Ziqing's marriage because of Wen Yiran's insistence. Otherwise, based on the personalities of the women in the Wen family, Zhao Qingshan wouldn't have considered the marriage at all. Seeing Feng Xueying and Wu Xiuli both looking like they had something to say but couldn't, Zhao Qingshan guessed that the two women were up to something.
Feng Xueying rolled her eyes at Zhao Qingshan's words. This Zhao Qingshan was really cunning. He was reminding her that Wen Yiran had arranged the marriage and told her not to say anything!
That's right, I should go back and discuss this matter with Lao Wen first! Let Lao Wen speak to Zhao Qingshan first, so that I won't lose face.
When Feng Xueying thought of this, she couldn't help but look at her daughter-in-law Wu Xiuli who was sitting next to her.
Wu Xiuli was getting anxious when she saw Feng Xueying was beating around the bush and not getting to the point. When her mother-in-law winked at her, she thought she was asking her to take action. She quickly sat up straight, cleared her throat, and said, "Uncle Zhao, my Ziyun really likes Yuanyuan, and they're a good match in age. How about changing the engagement to our Ziyun? What do you think?"
