The ugly daughter-in-law will have to meet her in-laws sooner or later. It's good that she's here. It's better to talk things out. Gao Shengnan is very open-minded. She and Junjie are already married and have a child. It doesn't matter if her in-laws disagree.
"Um... oh well, I don't care about this anymore, let Junjie talk to you."
Fang Yanming didn't know how to explain, so he handed the phone to Shi Junjie. Since they had already come to his door, what was the point of keeping it a secret?
Shi Junjie took the phone and said in a deep voice, "I'll come pick you up."
"Jun Jie, what's going on? The security guard said you got married. When did you get married? Why didn't you tell me...?"
My niece kept asking questions, full of doubts and some worries. She was afraid that her son had done something shameful, which was why he hadn't told his family.
"I'm coming to pick you up now. I'll explain in a bit. Just wait for me at the company."
After hanging up the phone, Shi Junjie lost his appetite for drinking. He smiled at Gao Shengnan and said, "Don't worry, I'll explain everything to my mom."
"Tell her nicely, don't argue with her," Gao Shengnan advised.
"Yes, I know."
Shi Junjie didn't drive. He had been drinking, so he took a taxi straight to the company. He kept thinking about what to say the whole way, until his head was about to explode, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
Anyway, that's how it is. Let his mother do whatever she wants. If she's unhappy, he can stay in Pingjiang with his wife and kids. His parents can't interfere that far.
My niece was pacing back and forth at the company gate, unable to calm down at all. Her son had actually gotten married! Such a big thing, and she, as his own mother, had no idea. That brat must have done something shameful, that must be it! Oh dear... she was so worried!
Shi Junjie arrived quickly. When his niece saw him, she was speechless, and after a long pause, she finally managed to stammer, "You didn't do anything illegal, did you?"
She was afraid that her son would get involved with a married woman; she couldn't do such a despicable thing, or people would gossip about him.
Shi Junjie was both amused and exasperated. "How could that be? Get in the car, I'll explain it to you slowly."
My niece breathed a sigh of relief; at least it wasn't about breaking up someone else's family. But she was also getting increasingly itchy and anxious, really wanting to know who her daughter-in-law was.
"Is your wife not pretty? That's okay. When choosing a wife, you should choose a virtuous one. Character is the most important thing. Looks don't matter. You're not exactly handsome either, so you can't look down on other girls because they're ugly."
My cousin's daughter-in-law has a peculiar way of thinking. She thought that Shi Junjie didn't want to bring his daughter-in-law home because he thought she was ugly.
“What are you thinking? My wife is very beautiful, she can earn money, and she gave you a big, healthy grandson who is four years old. His name is Xiaobao.” Shi Junjie confessed everything.
A huge surprise fell from the sky, leaving my niece completely dazed.
Yesterday she was still worried about her son's marriage, fearing he would become a bachelor, but now her son tells her that she has a four-year-old chubby grandson.
"Really? You're not kidding me?"
My niece was hard to believe, and she suppressed her excitement, thinking she must be dreaming.
“How could this be false? Today is Xiaobao’s birthday. I’ll take you home to see your grandson.”
"I have to see my daughter-in-law too, oh dear... I'll make sure I get ready properly, and I'll buy a red envelope from a roadside shop later as a gift..."
Upon receiving a positive reply, my niece was so happy she could hardly speak. She was going to be a grandmother, and her grandson was already four years old. Oh my... she was so incredibly happy.
“You’ve already seen my daughter-in-law and even given her a gift, so there’s no need for that.”
Shi Junjie glanced cautiously at his mother; his cousin's smile froze, and the air fell silent.
