Along the way, Sang Liangjie was nagged by the old lady and Gu Nianci for a long time, all urging him to find a partner. Ye Qingqing covered her mouth and kept laughing, while Sang Liangjie kept rolling his eyes at her. This girl was definitely doing it on purpose.
"Alright, alright, why do you all have to get married? You're all rushing him like this. Liangjie's most important thing right now is his career. He's only 25, what's the rush? It's not too late for a man to get married even at forty." Sang Wanhua couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted her impatiently.
What annoys her most are the aunts and uncles who urge her to get married. She was nagged a lot when she was young, so she really dislikes the old lady and Gu Nianci for pressuring Sang Liangjie.
Sang Liangjie breathed a sigh of relief and smiled gratefully at Sang Wanhua. His aunt understood him best.
He has no interest in dating right now; he just wants to focus on his career.
Gu Nianci said quietly, "If I get married at forty, I won't live to see it."
Ye Qingqing quickly said, "Don't worry, even if my cousin gets married at fifty, you'll still be able to hold your grandson."
Gu Nianci rolled her eyes at her, annoyed. "Why get married at fifty? You could be a grandfather by now."
"These things are a matter of fate. If you meet the right person, you'll get married; if not, you won't. It's fine if you never get married in your life. Does that mean you'll die?" Sang Wanhua retorted.
Gu Nianci choked for a moment, then couldn't help but say, "You'll stay single your whole life, don't let Liangjie follow your example."
Sang Wanhua sneered and retorted without mercy, "You're not a bachelor, but what kind of trash have you been dating? Even if I gave that Chen Shimei to you for free, I'd still find him disgusting."
"Chen Shimei is bad, but my son and granddaughter are good. Do you have any?"
"What are you showing off? I have great-grandchildren, and they are all very filial to me."
"Your child isn't my biological child, but mine is."
"It doesn't matter whether they are close or not, as long as they are filial. Take Old Mrs. Wang from your modeling team, for example. She raised four ungrateful children. She might as well have remained a bachelor for life."
In terms of eloquence, ten Gu Niancis couldn't compare to Sang Wanhua. She was a formidable and talented woman back then, who thoroughly criticized the government. Otherwise, she wouldn't have fled abroad.
"I...I won't argue with you. You're right no matter what, you can talk a dead person back to life." Gu Nianci turned her head away angrily.
Sang Wanhua scoffed, "Reason prevails everywhere. I'm just stating the facts. Who wants to argue with you?"
Ye Qingqing twitched her lips. These two old ladies couldn't stand not bickering a few times a day. The old lady said they had been arguing like this since they were little, and had been arguing their whole lives.
"Speaking of which, Grandma Wang is still lucky. Although her own children are not filial, Grandpa Ma's two sons are quite good, and they are also promising. They are both doctoral students at Tsinghua University, and I guess they will stay in the United States in the future."
Ye Qingqing changed the subject and smoothed things over.
The old lady chimed in, "She's certainly made something of herself. And I think Wang Meie has become much more sensible after this whole ordeal. She wasn't very likable before, but she's much more agreeable now."
The atmosphere lightened as the group started talking about Sister Wang. Sang Liangjie, who was driving, heard several times that she was a PhD from Tsinghua University, surnamed Ma, going to study in the US, and from Pingjiang. He couldn't help but ask, "Is her youngest son named Ma Zhibo?"
"Yes, cousin, do you know him?" Ye Qingqing asked curiously.
"He's a friend of mine. We met at a gathering of people from our hometown. Zhibo is really a good guy."
Ye Qingqing sighed, "What a small world! You can connect anyone with anything. Oh, I remember now, Grandma Wang said Ma Zhibo has found a girlfriend, and he's a PhD too. Cousin, you're a PhD too. Look at the difference between you two, tsk..."
Sang Liangjie's smile froze; he wished he could strangle this brat.
