Zhan Beiqin is the new son-in-law, so the Ren family naturally wants to give him a grand reception and quickly asks the nanny to go to the kitchen to prepare.
"Today was my first visit to your house, and I let him see the quarrel between mother and daughter. I feel really ashamed."
Ren Naiyao still felt ashamed and quickly explained again.
"Everyone knows that my father-in-law is the director of a steel plant, and Rong Zheng is the eldest daughter of the Ren family. Everyone is envious of her background when they talk about it.
I also thought that she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Even though the world was generally poor, she had been able to grow up without worries about food and clothing.
I didn't know that she hadn't officially married yet, and that when she returned to her parents' home, she had to kneel on the ground and be slapped ten times before she could enter. I had never heard of that before, and it was really eye-opening."
Zhan Beiqin's words were full of rebuke, which was beyond Ren Rongzheng's expectations. This man is really good!
Zhan Beiqin's words were undoubtedly a slap in the face to Ren Naiyao, making him completely embarrassed. Then he looked at Liu Lanying, frowned and winked at her, asking her to apologize quickly.
Liu Lanying now felt as disgusted as if she had eaten shit. She didn't expect that Ren Rongzheng, an infertile woman, was not kicked out by Zhan Beiqin, but was protected by him instead.
"My dear son-in-law, you misunderstood." Liu Lanying could only bite the bullet and explain with a smile, "I have also watched Rong Zheng grow up since she was a child. How could I not love her?
It's just that this girl has been stubborn since she was a child, and I was afraid that because of her temper, she would suffer in her husband's family after she got married, so I said that on purpose, hoping that she would change her temper.
Although I am her stepmother, I have never treated her harshly since she was a child. I am really wronged, dear son-in-law, please don't misunderstand me..."
Liu Lanying's trump card is to pretend to be kind after throwing a tantrum. She is like a big white lotus, and Ren Rongxue is the little white lotus born from the big white lotus.
"Yes, brother-in-law, please don't get me wrong. Mom and sister have been getting along very well since they were young. My sister and I have a very good relationship too, right, sister?"
Ren Rongxue immediately went over and held Ren Rongzheng's hand, looking like a loving sister, but Ren Rongzheng didn't buy it and let go of her hand.
"That's absolutely right. After I was found to be infertile and my engagement was broken off, they told me to die quickly. This mother-daughter relationship is truly extraordinary."
“…”
After Ren Rongzheng finished speaking, the three members of the Ren family all looked pale.
"Since this is my son-in-law's first visit, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Let's talk about your marriage." Ren Naiyao quickly changed the subject. "From the tone of my son-in-law, does he agree to your marriage with Rong Zheng?"
"Rong Zheng is gentle and quiet, well-educated and well-mannered. I have no reason to be dissatisfied."
Gentle, quiet, well-educated and polite?
Hearing these eight words, Ren Rongxue felt really unhappy. Maybe she could bear these eight words before, but after her suicide attempt, she became a completely different person. How could she be like what he described?
"Thank you for your praise, son-in-law. However, Rong Zheng was found to be infertile. Is this son-in-law acceptable to you?"
"Now that things are open, people's thinking should be more forward-thinking. The three unfilial acts are not having descendants, and the worst is not having descendants. These are already feudal chaff, and as such they should be discarded."
After hearing Zhan Beiqin's words, everyone present was shocked, including Ren Rongzheng himself.
Is he serious?
Men of this era are all patriarchal and believe that men are superior to women. In their eyes, not only is it a serious sin for a woman to be unable to give birth, but even if she cannot give birth to a son.
After testing him with the word "cell phone", she had already given up the idea that he was from the 21st century, but this sentence made her suspicious again.
Are people living in this era really not as open-minded as before?
"I didn't expect my son-in-law to have such different ideas. It seems my worries were for nothing. Rong Zheng is infertile and her engagement was broken off by Captain Jiang. It's really too high to marry Deputy Political Commissar Zhan. I hope my son-in-law doesn't mind."
"Such a good wife was given to me. I am so happy. How could I dislike her?"
From the moment he came in until now, he has been protecting Ren Rongzheng and speaking for her everywhere, which really made Ren Rongxue jealous.
As a childless woman, after marrying into her husband's family, shouldn't she be treated like a slave and subjected to humiliation?
But Zhan Beiqin's mother had died a long time ago, and he didn't care at all about her infertility.
Afterwards, the food was served on the table, and Ren Rongzheng very virtuously pushed Zhan Beiqin's wheelchair to the dining table.
"Since I think this marriage is fine, when do you plan to marry her?" Ren Naiyao asked.
"Rong Zheng and I's marriage application will be approved soon. After it's approved, I'll get the marriage certificate with her. As for the wedding."
Zhan Beiqin said this and looked at Ren Rongzheng with eyes full of love.
"Rong Zheng said that medicine will become more and more advanced in the future, and my leg will hopefully be cured. Weddings only happen once in a lifetime, and I don't want to have any regrets. After my leg is healed, I will hold my wedding with Rong Zheng in the army."
The more Rong Xue listened, the angrier she felt. Zhan Beiqin was indeed handsome and his conversation was very cultured, unlike those rough guys. Moreover, he was the head of a military region, and his only shortcoming was his disability.
If her leg is healed and she gets promoted in the army, will Ren Rongzheng be able to rise to the top? Will she still have a good life in the future?
"Dad, I'm going to get married to Beiqin soon. Don't forget the dowry we agreed on."
dowry?
She asked for a dowry of three thousand yuan, which was a sky-high price.
"Rong Zheng, you are my eldest daughter, and our family has no experience in marriage. My son-in-law also said that things are more open now, and many rules are different from before.
According to current rules, I'll find out how much the bride price and dowry are. You're my biological daughter, and I'll definitely not treat you unfairly. I'll marry you off with honor."
What he meant was that he was unwilling to give her the three thousand yuan she mentioned.
"Yes, yes, my husband is right. Wang Po is your matchmaker. She knows about this. I will go ask her tomorrow and tell you as soon as I get the number." Liu Lanying also said with a smile.
"Yes, our Ren family's ancestors are grateful for having a son-in-law like Deputy Political Commissar Zhan. We, the Ren family, will definitely not slack off on your marriage." Ren Naiyao also said.
"Because my younger sister is going to take the college entrance examination this year, my father has to accompany her in my hometown. Now Rong Zheng and I have only obtained the marriage certificate and have not yet held the wedding, so my father cannot come. I will trouble my father-in-law to arrange my marriage to Rong Zheng."
Hearing Zhan Beiqin's words, Ren Naiyao and Liu Lanying exchanged glances, their eyes filled with dissatisfaction, but they could only bite the bullet and say, "Yes, it should be."
