Chapter 513 (Page 1/2)
Song Jingjing hadn't expected her younger brother-in-law to have such a good relationship with her older brother and sister-in-law, and to get along well with their children. How could there be no generation gap between them, given the significant age gap? This puzzled her.
"Qinghuan, how old are you this year?" Song Jingjing asked curiously.
"Twenty years old." Huo Qinghuan replied.
"That's nineteen years old. Next year you will be old enough to register for marriage. Now that you're back to be a teacher, do you want me to introduce you to someone? I'll introduce Xiaoxue to you." Song Jingjing said with a smile.
Huo Qinghuan looked at Song Jingjing and asked, "Second sister-in-law, who is Xiaoxue?"
"My mother's cousin's little daughter is the girl who is helping to take care of the children in my house now. Yining asked us to come over for dinner, but Xiaoxue was shy and refused to come." Song Jingjing explained.
When Lin Man heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little disturbed. She didn't expect that as soon as Huo Qinghuan came back, her second sister-in-law would actually introduce her nanny to her brother-in-law.
Moreover, she remembered that Tang Xiaomi before and Tang Xue now were both relatives of Song Jingjing's mother.
Not long after her brother-in-law came back, Song Jingjing wanted to introduce a distant relative of their family to her as a wife. This is really a good thing!
Thinking of this, Lin Man's face changed slightly, but she still tried to remain calm. After all, this was the Huo family's family affair. Her parents-in-law didn't say anything, so as the eldest sister-in-law, she naturally couldn't say much.
Seeing that no one objected, Huo Qinghuan put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to Song Jingjing, "Second sister-in-law, I don't know that relative of yours, and I don't plan to get married and have children in the next few years."
Song Jingjing exclaimed, "Qinghuan, you'll be twenty next year. Don't you plan to get married and have children? Now that you're back and have a job, why don't you get married when you're old enough?"
Xiaoxue is sixteen years old this year, exactly two years younger than you. Next year she will be eighteen and old enough to get a marriage certificate..."
"Okay, sister-in-law, I'm penniless now, what do you want me to get married with?"
"Didn't your parents-in-law help you with the betrothal gifts when you got married? Didn't that also happen with your eldest brother and Qingyan's wedding?"
Huo Qinghuan had never expected that her second sister-in-law would be so sharp in her words. In the past, she had always been indifferent to the affairs of the Huo family, but today, for some reason, she suddenly started interfering in her marriage like crazy.
When Huo Qinghuan thought about his second sister-in-law trying to interfere in his marriage, he suddenly felt a strong sense of dissatisfaction in his heart.
He stared at Song Jingjing with displeasure on his face, and said firmly, "Second sister-in-law, I had already made my stance clear before I went to the countryside. I firmly support the policy of late marriage and late childbirth.
I will build a career first and then start a family. In short, if I haven't saved enough money for marriage, I won't get married yet. It's not too late to get married even when I'm 30."
Song Jingjing was unhappy to see Huo Qinghuan kept refusing. She had previously agreed with Tang Xue to help take care of the child patiently, and she would help introduce her to a gay man with a good family background in the future.
After all, Tang Xue is also a relative from her mother's side of the family. Her brother-in-law has no marriage partner now, so she naturally wants to match Tang Xue and Huo Qinghuan.
Before, many colleagues at work asked her to help find partners for their children, but she ignored them.
How could this guy be so ignorant? This was the first time she took the initiative to act as a matchmaker, so why did she fail?
Huo Qingyan also understood his wife's thoughts. He joked to Huo Qinghuan, "Little brother, your sister-in-law also said that you and Xiaoxue will get married soon. You are almost twenty years old. Why don't you talk about it and get married if it's suitable. If not, you can look for someone else later."

Huo Qinghuan looked at Huo Qingyan seriously, and replied in a firm and serious tone, "Second brother, the reason why I refused to be with my second sister-in-law and that girl named Xiaoxue really has nothing to do with them.
Actually, I have my own ideas and goals. In recent years, I have been diligently reviewing my high school courses. I will take the college entrance examination when the college entrance examination resumes in two years.
With my academic performance, I want to get into not only ordinary universities, but also key universities..."
Upon hearing this news, Huo Qingyan couldn't help but laugh. He knew his younger brother was a good student, but he still shook his head and said, "Boy, do you really think that once the situation becomes clear, the college entrance examination will be resumed immediately?"
Facing his second brother's questioning, Huo Qinghuan did not flinch and asked, "Why not? Now the situation is clear, and the problems that once troubled us are now a thing of the past.
Moreover, education is of vital importance to the country, and resuming the college entrance examination is an inevitable trend.
When I went to the countryside, my elder brother and sister-in-law kept asking me to review, just to wait for the day when the college entrance examination would be resumed so that I could take the college entrance examination.
He asked who gave his younger brother the courage and illusion, and it turned out that it was his elder brother and sister-in-law who instigated him!
Huo Qingyan looked at Huo Qingci and Lin Man with a playful smile on his face, and chuckled as he said, "Brother, sister-in-law, you two are really interesting. You're actually teasing Qinghuan here.
Look at him, he's become stupid from studying, and he still fantasizes about the day when the college entrance examination will be reinstated..."
However, before Huo Qingyan could finish his words, Lin Man interrupted him and asked, "Why not?"
Huo Qingci, who was standing by, also echoed, "Isn't everyone saying that the situation is now clear? If so, then resuming the college entrance examination will be put on the agenda sooner or later.
Just wait and see! As long as Qing Huan persists in studying, he will definitely be able to get into an ideal university when the college entrance examination is resumed."
At this time, Huo Li, who had been silent the entire time, finally put down his wine glass and said, "Alright, let's stop arguing about this. No one can say for sure whether the college entrance examination will be reinstated, but no matter what, it's always a good idea to be prepared in advance."
After saying that, Huo Li turned to look at Huo Qinghuan and said earnestly, "Qinghuan, since you have been reviewing for a few years, then keep reviewing and don't give up. Maybe one day the college entrance examination will be suddenly announced to be resumed, so you can prepare in time.
No matter what the future holds, you must study hard and don't waste time. As long as you work hard, there will definitely be a way out in the future."
Huo Qinghuan nodded, "Grandpa, I know. I will continue to review and will not let everyone down. I will work hard to get into an ideal university when the college entrance examination is resumed."
Huo Qingyan knew that his younger brother would not change his mind and would not look for a date this way. He turned to look at Song Jingjing and asked softly, "Jingjing, what is Tang Xue's degree?"
"I dropped out of junior high school after one semester and spent two years feeding pigs at home. Later, my mother arranged for her to come and help."
Huo Qingyan didn't want to give Song Jingjing hope, so he simply pointed out that Tang Xue and his brother were not a good match.
"Jingjing, my brother only has a high school diploma. How can they have anything in common if you introduce him to someone who hasn't even graduated from junior high?"
Song Jingjing was embarrassed by what she said and didn't know what to say, so she just lowered her head and remained silent.
