Guo Jia, who answered the phone, blushed. After answering a few words in a low voice, his expression became calm, his voice became slightly higher, and then he gritted his teeth.
"If they dare to say anything disrespectful of my family, we'll break up. You know my temper. I'm not someone who will swallow my anger. I won't let my family suffer for my own sake, not even my Dagang dad.
Just explain my family situation clearly to your parents. If they agree, then agree. If they don't, forget it. Don't affect my search for another partner or delay my marriage and having children. I'm already 22."
After yelling, Guo Jia hung up the phone. When he returned the phone to Zhou Xiang, his eyes were still red.
Zhou Xiang took the phone and said with a smile, "Why are you angry? As long as you maintain this attitude, your future in-laws won't dare to make any trouble. They're afraid of Zhou Kai, and Zhou Kai is afraid of you. Even if he's not afraid of you, don't I still have him? Don't be angry, Zhou Kai is not a talkative person. He also wants to get married smoothly by the end of the year."
Guo Jia sniffed, "Miss Zhou, he said his parents probably look down on me and my family background, and told me not to care what they say, as long as the marriage is settled. I know he means what you said, but I have to be upfront about it. Otherwise, if I accept this grievance, I will definitely suffer grievances in the future, just like my mother when she was young."
"Yes," Zhou Xiang supported, "That's right. You should treat his parents the same way. Don't worry about who they are. They don't have any face in front of me."
"Yes!" Guo Jia nodded, "Thank you, Miss Zhou."
"You're welcome. They'll..." Zhou Xiang was interrupted by a call from her phone. She handed the phone to Guo Jia, "It's Zhou Kai's number. He must be calling you. Pick up the phone."
After answering the call, Guo Jia smiled and handed the phone to Zhou Xiang, "Miss Zhou, Zhou Kai wants to talk to you."
"Cousin," Zhou Xiang had just picked up the phone when Zhou Kai said anxiously, "I just told my parents that they will come to see you tomorrow. I heard their attitude was rather cold. You have to help Jia Jia! After all, you are the matchmaker between us."
"Am I? How could I not know."
"You are it, don't worry, the matchmaker's red envelope is definitely yours."
"I don't want it," Zhou Xiang refused. "You pushed me into the position of matchmaker, but it's just a shield for you."
"Cousin, you are my biological sister, please help me! I have another mission tomorrow."
"Okay!" In order to let Zhou Kai go on the mission without worry, Zhou Xiang reluctantly agreed, "You must remember to be nice to Jia Jia, otherwise, I, the matchmaker and cousin, will not let you go."
"Got it," Zhou Kai responded loudly, "I'll hang up now. Captain, call me again."
Seeing Zhou Kai hanging up the phone with a smirk on his face, Tang Ganwen raised his hand and pointed at him, "How dare you lie to your cousin? I'm not Zhou Paopi."
"Hehehe," Zhou Kai grinned foolishly, "Didn't you say women are the most soft-hearted? I learned that from my brothers."
Many people in the team couldn't handle the women at home, so they used the excuse of going on a mission soon and the women immediately gave in.
After Zhou Xiang hung up the phone, he began to think again. He had called Zhou Kai earlier and thought he'd heard him say he'd just returned. So, he was out on another mission? Was there no one else on the team?
Forget it, forget it. When I was trying to match these two people up, I knew it would be difficult to get past Uncle and Aunt. Jia Jia is working for herself. Regardless of whether she is a matchmaker or not, the couple will not let her stay out of it. She will just deal with it as it comes.
The next morning, Zhou Xiang waited leisurely at home. At eleven o'clock, the couple finally arrived, accompanied by a girl in her twenties.
This girl has pretty features, but she has a petty air. Well, she looks a lot like Xia Cuilan.
"Think about it," Xia Cuilan said with a smile on her face, "I haven't seen you for so many years, and you're still the same as you were ten years ago, not much has changed."
Looking at Zhou Ming, who was still being spoken by his wife while he sat in the background, and then looking at Xia Cuilan, whose smile had become more sincere but her family-oriented demeanor remained unchanged, Zhou Xiang said with a smile, "It's the same for you. Third Uncle and Third Aunt are the same as before, nothing has changed!"
Xia Cuilan pretended not to understand Zhou Xiang's subtext, and took the girl's hand and introduced her, "This is my cousin from my mother's side, Fang Xiuli. Xiuli, just call her cousin like Xiaokai does."
"Cousin." Fang Xiuli called softly.
"I don't deserve it," Zhou Xiang's face turned cold. "I don't even want to acknowledge Zhou Kai as my cousin. If he hadn't been so stubborn and stayed at my house, how could I have wasted so much food and clothes to support someone else's child?
Third Aunt, you should settle Zhou Kai's food and clothing expenses for the past three years for me, right? I have a record of his expenses for the past three years. You have been hiding from me for so many years. Are you trying to shirk your responsibilities?"
Xia Cuilan couldn't hold back her smile. "Think about it, it's been more than ten years, and your mouth hasn't changed."
"You haven't changed, so how can I?" Zhou Xiang said sarcastically, "Okay, tell me what you're doing here today?"
"Didn't Xiaokai tell you?" Xia Cuilan didn't believe it. When Xiaokai called yesterday, he clearly said that he would explain it to his cousin.
"Haha," Zhou Xiang chuckled, "I did! But I didn't think Third Aunt wanted to talk about what Zhou Kai said, so I asked."
"You're joking," Xia Cuilan smiled again, "Where is Guo Jia? Call her out!"
"Lü Ying!"
"exist."
In the blink of an eye, a tall and burly man appeared behind Zhou Xiang.
"Please ask these three people to leave!" Zhou Xiang emphasized the word "please" and Lu Ying immediately understood what her sister-in-law meant.
The figure flashed and appeared in front of Xia Cuilan who was opposite Zhou Xiang. The next second, Xia Cuilan was picked up by Lu Ying.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Xia Cuilan, who was hanging in the air, shouted anxiously, "Think about it, think about it, what are you doing? If you have something to say, talk it over nicely. Don't just resort to violence!"
"Hmph!" Zhou Xiang snorted heavily, "Since you have such high standards and look down on my servants, fine, just say it directly. What qualifications do you have to bully my people with a contemptuous attitude in front of me?
You should know that I am a protective person. That brat Zhou Kai has been with me for three years, and I have always protected him. Who knew you would be so confused? Go away now! Go back and find a good family for your son, or someone who you like.
I immediately told Guo Jia to break up with Zhou Kai. If they did it today, I'd find her a good man tomorrow. What good is a scoundrel who can't save a penny, who only knows how to live off his parents, who refuses to let him live off them, and then turns around and starts living off his cousin? If he weren't so shameless, if it weren't for my face, would they have agreed to him? Zhou Kai's scoundrel nature is known to everyone in the market town. What girl would want to marry him?
You're still complaining about it? Fine, you can comfort your lawless son yourself! Don't expect me to take care of him in the future. I'm just his cousin. I raised him for three years and sent him to the team. I'm completely worthy of the Zhou family's ancestors for eighteen generations."
After the quarrel, Zhou Xiang waved his hand and signaled Lu Ying to take the person away.
