After hearing her daughter's words, the cow mother felt quite helpless.
She felt that having a college graduate as a son-in-law, especially one from a well-off family, was a good thing, but she also felt that the chances of her daughter marrying him were slim because of the age difference.
However, Niu Xiangyun remained confident.
Knowing that Aunt Qi had come several times, Niu's daughter-in-law pretended to casually inquire about her sister-in-law's marriage progress with her mother-in-law.
The cow's mother sighed deeply in front of her daughter-in-law.
Unexpectedly, her daughter-in-law sided with her daughter and advised her.
"Mom, I think Xiangyun is right. It would be a pity to miss out on such a good opportunity, especially since Xiangyun is willing this time. It's rare to see someone like that. Age is not a problem."
After being persuaded by her daughter-in-law, the mother's mind was tipped a little more in sync.
The night Sun Guangming came to stay at her house, Zhao Qinglan had already told her uncle that she would also visit his house as a way of visiting relatives. She also told her sister about it when she went to her sister's house.
Sure enough, the day after visiting Zhao Qingju, Zhao Qinglan's family had breakfast and then set off for their uncle's house.
This time, Sun Guangming didn't send a car to pick them up. Zhao Qinglan and the children went by car because she felt that her younger sister's nephew was too young. Even if her uncle sent a car to pick them up, she would have them go to pick up her sister's family instead.
When they arrived at their uncle's house, they saw Zhao Qingju and her family already sitting there.
"You've arrived early," Zhao Qinglan said with a smile.
"Little Bao wakes up early to nurse, so we have to get up early too. As soon as Uncle's car arrived, we set off."
Sun Guangming rarely has relatives visiting his home, but now that his two nieces have brought their children to visit, he is very happy and offers them many delicious foods.
In the kitchen, their housekeeper was busy preparing things.
Xiao Bao was awake at the moment. Wei Yaohui took the child, Xiao Duo went to play with the child, while Da Wa and his younger brother were studying some models at their great-uncle's house.
Seeing this, Zhao Qingju mentioned her mother-in-law's "kindness" to her uncle.
"Find me a companion?" Sun Guangming chuckled.
"If I really had this idea, I wouldn't need anyone else to worry about it for me. I would have found someone myself. I think I'm fine being alone now."
He's already this age, and he's quite busy with work every day, so why would he want to find a partner? He doesn't even have that thought.
Zhao Qinglan gave her sister a "see?" emoji.
When her uncle directly refused, Zhao Qingju felt relieved.
"Okay, I'll go back and explain it to my mother-in-law, so she won't have to worry about it."
"Qingju, talk to her nicely. If your mother-in-law still insists, tell her to come to me. I'll talk to her, and you shouldn't get involved." That way, it won't affect your niece's relationship with her mother-in-law.
"Okay, Uncle."
Sun Guangming smiled. He had now found two younger sisters, as well as a niece and a nephew. He had no regrets at all.
It was a rare occasion for the three—uncle, nephew, and uncle—to sit together, and Sun Guangming also inquired about the business development of his two nieces.
Because he lived nearby, he knew a fair bit about his younger niece's situation. It was only after Zhao Qinglan told him that he realized his older niece's business had grown to such a scale.
Upon hearing about the benefits and salaries his niece provided for her employees, he praised them repeatedly.
"The future of the country depends on young people like you," he said with emotion.
Zhao Qinglan laughed. "Uncle, I'm over thirty, what kind of young man am I? If anyone's going to watch, it's Da Wa and Er Wa."
"You are all great."
When the little guy got tired of playing, they put him directly on the sofa, and the adults watched over him while Wei Yaohui joined in the conversation.
Sun Guangming also inquired about the studies of the eldest child and the others.
The eldest child came to visit relatives, a rare opportunity to relax without studying, but it's common for every household to ask about his grades during the visit.
Fortunately, all of them, including the siblings, had excellent grades. Sun Guangming nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, saying that the third generation of their family were also very outstanding.
They only stopped chatting when their aunt came out and told everyone it was time to eat.
Niu Xiangyun, unwilling to give up, took some more things and knocked on Zhao Qinglan's door.
This time, it was Liu Dandan who opened the door.
Remembering what Aunt Qi said about the woman who opened the door being Zhao Qinglan's subordinate, Niu Xiangyun became somewhat arrogant upon seeing Liu Dandan.
Are your bosses home?
"No, what's up?" Liu Dandan asked.
"Is the whole family not here?" Niu Xiangyun frowned.
"Only the old man is here."
Upon hearing this, Niu Xiangyun became disappointed. She hadn't come to see the old man; it would be best if she could see Da Wa, or at least his mother.
Unfortunately, no one was home, and she suddenly didn't want to give away the things she was holding, saying stiffly, "If they're not there, then forget it."
After saying that, she turned and left.
"That's strange," Liu Dandan muttered before closing the door.
Why have so many people been coming to our door these past two days? Old Master Dou couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
Because Niu Xiangyun had visited once before, the old man immediately thought of her after Liu Dandan gave him a brief description.
This girl doesn't seem like a kind-hearted person; why does she keep coming here?
When Zhao Qinglan's family returned, Grandpa Dou expressed his doubts.
They've come knocking again? And why do they insist on seeing me and the children?
Thinking of Aunt Qi, who had come to propose marriage, Zhao Qinglan immediately understood.
Could it be that he just wants to play matchmaker for his eldest child and this girl?
Otherwise, how could someone have taken a liking to the eldest child when they've only been here for a short time?
Since the old man was not an outsider, Zhao Qinglan shared her speculation.
The old man frowned upon hearing this. "She's several years older than Da Wa, how dare she have designs on him?"
