Chapter 217 Not as Different as I Imagined

"You...you you, simply..." Zeng Sufen was so angry that her eyes went dark. She wanted to say something but was pulled out of the door by Aunt Zhou who saw that the situation was not right.

"Silan, we have said a lot today. Let's talk again in two days!"

After saying this, Aunt Zhou pulled Zeng Sufen away, fearing that the two would continue arguing.

Wang Silan was also speechless. Where did this person come from who felt so good about himself?

Zeng Sufen carried her bag and rushed all the way back to her home. She was still angry even after she sat on the sofa.

She thought her son fell in love with an honest and decent man, and she would accept him even if he came from the countryside. However, she didn't expect the Hang family to be so ignorant!

She is a small leader after all. When the textile factory was doing well, everyone outside had to flatter her. How come she is completely useless now that she is in the Hang family?

Moreover, she believes that her family is strong enough, so why does the Hang family look down on her so much?

Zeng Sufen was filled with anger. Her impression of Hang Jingshu kept declining. She started to feel annoyed before she even met him.

The son was the same. Why did he have to choose a country girl like this? The family didn't even have any foundation in the city.

Forget about being of any help in the future, it would be good enough if I don’t get taken advantage of by those relatives!

You can’t blame Zeng Sufen for thinking this way. In the 1980s, city dwellers had a sense of superiority and would start wrinkling their noses when talking about the countryside.

Hangjia is not only a rural village, but also a small mountain village. Although the county town is well built, it is still a rural household registration.

In the future, the retirement of Hang Renshan and Wang Silan became a problem.

Even if Hang Jingshu can assign a job, it would be difficult for someone without any foundation to make any progress in a business unit!

Don't blame Zeng Sufen for looking at people through tinted glasses; this is the reality that is right in front of us.

Zeng Sufen has always been a worrywart. Ever since she heard that her son had someone he liked, she has been waiting to see Hang Jingshu.

As a result, two years passed, not only did the Hang family take the initiative, but not even a hair of Hang Jingshu was seen.

During the National Day holiday, Wang Chongyun returned home. Zeng Sufen blocked him in the room and questioned him for a long time before she finally understood that the girl was not in love with her son at all!!!

Two years have passed, and we have written so many letters, but there has been no additional progress and we are still classmates!

This almost made Zeng Sufen so angry that she vomited blood.

During this period, Zeng Sufen had introduced some people to her son, but Wang Chongyun always fooled her with his vague answers.

She thought that her child had grown up and had his own ideas, so it wouldn't be too late to have a romantic relationship and get married after he graduated from college. But she didn't expect that it would be two years already!

My son hasn’t even caught up with the person yet!

This made Zeng Sufen doubt her life. She thought she had educated her son well. Who on earth could be so stupid that he looked down on her own son?

Zeng Sufen was so worried that she was confused, fearing that her son would get into it and not be able to get out.

As a mother, my heart is always full of ups and downs.

At first, Zeng Sufen was worried that Wang Chongyun would not be enlightened. She had educated her son very well, but when it came to finding a partner, being honest alone was no use.

Now that he has come to his senses, he will like people. Zeng Sufen was worried that her son, who was so honest, would be cheated.

This feeling was very contradictory and complicated. When Zeng Sufen learned that the person her son liked was a rural girl, this subtle feeling in her heart reached its peak.

In her heart, she thought that the Hang family should have known about their family's existence a long time ago, and should have even welcomed her politely. Even after they got married, Hang Jingshu would have to be humble in front of her!

It’s no wonder Zeng Sufen thinks this way. Everyone around her thinks this way. People are influenced by their environment, and this is something that cannot be changed.

There has been a distinction between cities and rural areas since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Zeng Sufen has been to the countryside before, and there are all kinds of shit and stench gathered together there.

People in urban areas already use clean flush toilets, but there are still places in rural areas that don't need toilet paper.

The difference has existed from the beginning and will not change just because a little country girl gets admitted to university.

Zeng Sufen was beautiful when she was young, and her family was wealthy, so she had always been treated like a star and lived a life of luxury. After she married into the Wang family, she lived a life where she had the final say.

With a dutiful and obedient husband and a sensible and well-behaved son since childhood, Zeng Sufen's first half of life can be said to have been smooth sailing.

Later, her husband became more and more successful, which made her presence less noticeable, but that's normal.

After marriage, it is natural that the man is the breadwinner and the woman is the homemaker. She has also sacrificed a lot of time to take care of her son. Her requirements for her daughter-in-law in the future are very simple, that is, she can continue to help her take care of her son.

Regarding the business of Hang Jingshu's family.

Zeng Sufen curled her lips indifferently, what future could a self-employed person have? The important thing was to ensure that the Hang family's business did not drag down her son.

I heard that Hang Jingshu was studying at some agricultural university, and he probably wouldn't be assigned to a good job. Zeng Sufen felt a little dissatisfied. She thought that she might have to rely on her family's connections to get a job.

It's troublesome to find something without any foundation.

No matter what Hang Jingshu thought, Zeng Sufen had obviously considered her as her future daughter-in-law and had not considered Hang Jingshu's thoughts at all.

Zeng Sufen has even thought about what will happen after marriage.

It is popular to have only one child now, but Zeng Sufen knows it clearly in her heart. If Hang Jingshu's first child is not a son, she will definitely ask for a second child.

By then it will all depend on whether Hang Jingshu’s belly can keep up. Anyway, the Wang family will definitely have children.

Before her son even started dating someone, Zeng Sufen had already planned their future.

Even though Zeng Sufen was unhappy, she planned to respect her son's preferences. After all, people now emphasize freedom of marriage, and she didn't want to be too arbitrary.

She is now waiting for the Hang family to come to her house, and she will definitely show her full respect!

Let them regret treating her like that today!

Hang Jingshu didn't know that while she and Xiao Ran were still on the train, some people had already started thinking about what would happen after she got married.

Compared to the last time when he sent Hang Jingshu to the car, this time the two of them sat together. Xiao Ran was no longer as calm as before and was obviously much more nervous.

The main reason was that he didn't know the attitude of the Hang family.

He had met Hang Chenggang before, but his elder brother-in-law was still on the road, so he probably couldn't say much.

Xiao Ran was feeling uneasy at the time, so he wanted to ask Xiao Hang for a certain status.

After school started, Xiaohang was no longer by his side. Although Huicheng and Beijing are not far apart, there is still distance between them. Their sweet love did not last long before they had to start a long-distance relationship.

Xiao Ran was reluctant from the bottom of his heart, but he could not delay Xiao Hang's future for his own selfish reasons.

Two people should work together to make progress, instead of pulling the other down just because they themselves are not capable.

From school to the train station, from buying things to carrying things and finding seats on the train, Xiao Ran took care of everything.

Once on the train, Xiao Ran turned into a good boyfriend again. He bought meals, fetched water, and even bought a lot of snacks for Hang Jingshu to take away so that he could eat whenever he was hungry.

Although the two of them couldn't buy a berth, Hang Jingshu still had a very comfortable journey home.

Even when Hang Jingshu went to the restroom, he was waiting at the door.

There was always clean hot water in the kettle.

No matter how many people there are on the train, Xiao Ran is strong enough to protect Hang Jingshu firmly.

After getting off the train, the two didn't delay. Xiao Ran wanted to take a taxi to take Hang Jingshu to the mall to buy things.

Even though Fengcheng is not developing very fast now, it still has the necessary taxis.

It’s just not as fancy as the trains in the capital, it’s just an ordinary van painted yellow.

But for ordinary people, it is a bit of a luxury.

Hang Jingshu stopped him and said, "What are you doing? You just got off the train and you can't wait to spend money?"

Xiao Ran shook his head: "I am indeed a little nervous."

Which kid wouldn't be nervous when meeting his parents for the first time?

Compared to Hang Jingshu's calmness, Xiao Ran is just a young boy with little emotional experience.

In the end, the two of them took the bus.

During the winter vacation, Hang Jingshu didn't bring back much luggage, and Xiao Ran's luggage was directly taken away by Song Zhe.

He won't stay in Fengcheng for many days.

Even though he wanted to live.

The two were shopping in a department store, but what Hang Jingshu had instructed to be a low-key gathering somehow turned into a small family gathering.

Sister Hang thought her younger sister would be back soon, so she brought her husband and son over to join in the fun.

When I passed by the store on Jianguo Road, I happened to bring my sister Hang Jinghua with me.

This time, Hang Jingshu's plan to bring Xiao Ran to visit in a low-key manner turned into a small family dinner.

There were still quite a few good things in Fengcheng Department Store. Xiao Ran took out 1,000 yuan in advance and put it in his pocket, ready to go shopping when he arrived.

It’s my first time visiting my daughter-in-law’s house, so I have to be polite.

Cigarettes, alcohol, tea, sugar and two servings of Daoxiangcun snacks. Xiao Ran bought everything without blinking an eye.

Hang Jingshu also told Xiao Ran about his parents' hobbies. Hang Renshan usually liked to smoke, but now his family bought a motorcycle and he seldom drinks.

Their whole family came from the countryside, and Wang Silan didn't have any special hobbies other than making money.

In the end, Xiao Ran pulled Hang Jingshu to pick out a silk scarf for Wang Silan and bought two rolls of wool yarn.

These are things that people of Wang Silan’s age now like.

Hang Jingshu looked at the things in Xiao Ran's hand and his brows twitched: "Did you buy too much?"

Xiao Ran had seven or eight things scattered in his hands. He bought a pack of cigarettes and some Jiannanchun wine. Fortunately, these things did not require tickets, otherwise he would not be able to buy them all.

When they arrived at the fruit shop, Xiao Ran picked out a plate of bananas and a box of red Futu apples.

Seeing Xiao Ran still looking around the fruit shop, Hang Jingshu quickly stopped him: "That's enough, that's enough. If you buy more, you really won't be able to take it all."

Xiao Ran looked at Hang Jingshu seriously with his dark eyes: "I just want to express my sincerity."

Hang Jingshu said helplessly: "If you do this, you will scare my parents when you get home."

It was like a good guy going to a department store for the first time to buy things, just like sweeping the floor. Hang Jingshu was worried about how to carry all these things.

It turned out that Xiao Ran was quick and decisive. He asked the fruit shop owner for some ropes, mixed it with other things that would not strangle him, and picked it up directly.

This time the two of them really had to take a taxi back.

After getting off the car and walking in the alley, Xiao Ran became a little nervous, even a little clumsy.

Hang Jingshu joked: "Are you nervous?"

Xiao Ran's ears turned red, and his eyes couldn't help blinking back and forth, but his mouth was very hard: "No, how could it be."

In fact, he was just unsure in his heart. He was afraid that Mr. and Mrs. Hang would think he was too frivolous. Xiao Ran, who was usually not afraid of anything, suddenly felt a little nervous.

He is now a lonely man, and there is no warmth at home during the New Year.

Although Song Zhe's family would invite him to celebrate the New Year every year, Xiao Ran still felt sad and upset when he sat at the dinner table.

He has no relatives except himself.

The alley was very quiet. The two walked to the door one after the other. Before they could knock, the door opened from the inside.

It was Sister Hang who opened the door, which surprised Hang Jingshu.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Hang Jingmei spotted the person behind her sister and replied in a slightly unpleasant tone, "What are you talking about? You didn't even tell me and Huahua about such a big thing?

If we hadn't happened to come here today, how long would you have kept it a secret?"

Hang Jingshu felt guilty for a moment: "I, I haven't had enough time yet, haha."

Oh no, I originally just wanted to meet up, but now something seems to be going wrong.

Xiao Ran is tall, but at this moment he just stood behind Hang Jingshu, waiting woodenly for her arrangements. He is tall and strong, but for some reason he looks a bit silly.

Hang Jingmei was very angry at first, thinking it was a bit too early for her sister to start dating in her sophomore year.

But when she saw Xiao Ran, Hang Jingmei was also stunned. Apart from anything else, just looking at the appearance of this guy, there was really nothing wrong with him.

Xiao Ran held all the things in his hands, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

He just said he would send Xiaohang back for a quick meal, but the situation now seemed more formal than he thought.

Thinking of a certain possibility, Xiao Ran's eyes lit up and he looked at Hang Jingshu expectantly: "Did you tell your family about this?"

He was right!

Xiaohang also wants to be with him for a long time!

The little thoughts in his heart slowly climbed up to his face. Xiao Ran's cheekbones rose to the sky, and the way he looked at Hang Jingshu seemed to be filled with pink bubbles, and he was almost spinning in circles.

If Xiaohang just wanted to have a casual chat with him, he definitely wouldn't have called all the family members in the house.

Xiao Ran was instantly struck by a huge sense of happiness, and he felt dizzy with happiness.

Hang Jingshu was also dazed. Seeing Xiao Ran's expression, he knew that he had misunderstood. Hang Jingshu quickly explained: "I made it very clear on the phone. This might be an accident."

The development of the matter was somewhat beyond Hang Jingshu's own expectations. She had not thought that it was such a coincidence that her eldest and second sisters were both there.

Xiao Ran had already prepared a lot of things, but facing the current situation, it was obviously not enough.

Especially there are two children in the orphanage.

Almost subconsciously, Xiao Ran wanted to buy some more things, but it was not convenient for him to go out directly now. He also believed that this was the accident that Xiao Hang mentioned, not a surprise.
