Chapter 1274: Winning Step by Step
Looking at the gloomy faces of her father and aunt, and then at Zhou Shun who was standing there somewhat stiffly, Zhou Anan instantly understood what was going on.
This cousin is too impatient. Zhou Anan had already agreed to arrange his marriage with that out-of-town girl, but he was the one who revealed the news.
What good can come from having his aunt and his father, two people with hot tempers?
It's like the battle between Pesticide Squad, the team should have waited for the opponent to split up and then defeated them one by one, but now it's like directly attacking a crystal guarded by five people, or one person fighting against the entire opponent team.
My cousin is still too young and stubborn.
"An An, Xiao Xiao are back, come and sit down."
Seeing his future daughter-in-law coming back, Wang Jingyu quickly stood up and greeted her, breaking the somewhat dull atmosphere in the living room.
To be honest, she didn't want to get involved in her brother-in-law's family affairs. It was because her husband and sister-in-law were both nosy people and they hadn't changed at all over the years.
The uncle and aunt who were sitting on the sofa quickly stood up and prepared to give up their seats.
"Uncle and aunt, it's okay, you guys sit down. What's going on? What's going on?"
After refusing his uncle and aunt's offer to give him a seat, Zhou Anan pulled his girlfriend to sit on two stools his mother brought out and asked out of curiosity.
Wang Xiaoxiao, who was visiting her future mother-in-law for the first time, sat elegantly on the stool, took the watermelon handed to her and thanked her sweetly.
She didn't ask any more questions.
"It's not your brother's business. An An, you're a college student and you know how to talk. Try to persuade Zhou Shun not to be so stubborn about marrying that girl from another province."
When her eldest nephew asked, aunt Li Aili quickly said something.
The elders said a lot of things, but their son was stubborn and refused to give in, which was really worrying.
Actually, she felt that it was not a bad thing for her son to suddenly have a girlfriend.
Didn’t you see that my eldest nephew has brought his girlfriend home? They can’t be too late.
Just by listening to what her elder sister-in-law said, Li Aili also felt that it was not a good idea for her son to marry a girl from another place, as her parents' family would not be of much help to her son's career.
Another point is that after all, their family conditions are pretty good now, and they are well-known in the village. If they tell others about it, people might gossip about them behind their backs.
"I said I couldn't agree to it. Our family is so poor, and we still want to marry a country girl from another province who has nothing."
Zhou Yuping, the sister-in-law who was sitting nearby, heard this and immediately repeated her opinion loudly.
On weekdays, Zhou Yuping has a hot temper and is always enthusiastic about family matters, especially towards her two nephews who grew up in her eyes.
In addition, her husband's career has been successful in recent years and he is now the executive deputy director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. She feels that she has more say at home and her voice is louder.
If there is any disobedience, I will serve you loudly.
"Ahem, aunt, my Xiaoxiao is from another place, too."
After hearing what his aunt said, Zhou Anan coughed twice and smiled and told her the identity of his girlfriend.
As native people of Lizhou, my aunt and her father both have a strong sense of local attachment and are deeply obsessed with marrying a wife from another place.
It was because Miss Wang had such an outstanding temperament that they didn't react immediately.
Well, even after I reacted, I didn’t have any other thoughts.
In addition, thanks to my uncle's family who are still busy at home, my cousin's wife, who is also from another place, is not here.
Otherwise, with my cousin's wife's hot temper, there would definitely be a quarrel.
"How can this be compared to your Xiaoxiao, who is like a fairy in heaven? How many girls can there be?"
At this time, Zhou Yuping remembered that his nephew's girlfriend was not from Lizhou either, so he changed his words and praised her a few words to prevent the girl from having any ideas.
She was so generous that she gave her daughter a bag worth tens of thousands of dollars, a piece of valuable jade, and most importantly, the cigarettes and tea for her husband.
Especially that cigarette. According to my husband, it is not something that ordinary people can get. This girl must be from a wealthy or noble family.
This proud girl from the big city is no match for those girls from remote areas of other provinces.
Even when her eldest sister's second nephew married a girl from another place, Zhou Yuping didn't think much of him.
At the beginning, she introduced a rich girl who owned several houses in the city to her second nephew who had just returned from the army. The other party was very interested in her, but was delayed by the second nephew himself.
If it weren't for his good luck and help from Zhou Xiaoke, the second nephew might still be an ordinary worker in the factory. How could he open a car 4S shop with his brother now?
What's more, their Zhou family is rich now, and they are not worthy of an ordinary girl from another place.
The marriages of her two nephews are fine, but as an aunt, she still has to check the marriages of her two nieces.
In short, girls from remote mountain villages in other provinces are not suitable to enter the Zhou family.
"Aunt, you are generalizing too much. I heard that Zhou Shun's girlfriend opened several health clubs and has an annual income of over a million. She is definitely worthy of our Zhou family."
Seeing that her aunt made such a clear distinction, even to the point of being snobbish, Zhou Anan first talked about the efforts of the girl from another place.
Actually, there is some truth in what my aunt said.
For ordinary people, no matter how beautiful love is, it will have to bow to reality.
Indeed, if it were the original Zhou Shun, marrying a girl from another province would really increase the burden of his future life, but Miss Qian still worked very hard.
After the success of the first head office, Qian Yuqin couldn't stop and opened two branches in Lizhou and also a branch in Wuzhou. Her net worth must be several million.
"Health care center? Didn't Zhou Shun just say he wanted to open a foot massage parlor?"
Upon hearing what her nephew said, Li Aili, as a mother, quickly asked a question.
Just now, my son said that his girlfriend runs a foot massage shop. Everyone in the family thinks it is not a good idea and strongly opposes it. Even Li Aili thinks those small street shops are not reliable.
This health club sounds much more serious.
Especially the one with an annual income of one million. Why does it feel a little too exaggerated? How could a girl like that fall in love with her son who didn't even graduate from high school?
You know, although their family conditions have improved now, the family savings are only about 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, which is not as much as other girls' income for two or three months.
"Yeah, An An, don't talk nonsense."
Zhou Yuping felt something was strange and looked at his nephew with suspicion.
Earning a million a year, is that true?
Even if her husband got a promotion and a raise, his annual salary is only about 100,000 yuan. How can that girl from another province earn millions a year?
When I think about it, it seems a little unbelievable.
However, her eldest nephew has been performing very well recently and has achieved remarkable results, so she doesn't think he would lie about this.
"Aunt, little aunt, you are all behind the times. In the past, those small shops facing the street were foot massage parlors, but now they are all new-style health spas, and one shop is an entire building. The name of that health spa is Bird of Paradise, and the main store is right across from the Mobile Company on the pedestrian street. You should have seen it when you passed by."
Faced with the outdated ideas of her aunt and others, Zhou Anan began to explain.
Compared to his cousin who has a bad temper and is not very sociable, Zhou Anan, who has been in society for many years, is quite eloquent.
With just a few words, Zhou Anan calmed down her aunt and others who had strongly opposed the incident.
First, he covered himself up by pretending to be his girlfriend, then he changed their misunderstanding about the foot massage parlor, and then he pointed out the worth of his cousin's girlfriend, winning step by step.
