Feng Juan declined politely: "Thank you, Xiao Sun Zhizhi, I appreciate your kindness, but forget about the gift. This is the first time we've met, and I can't accept your gift for no reason."
Sun Zhu turned his head and looked at Sun Lan for help.
Sun Lan smiled and tried to smooth things over. "Auntie, don't refuse. This is Xiao Zhu's gift. Besides, these things aren't expensive. They're just two cans of food produced in her own factory. Just accept them."
Feng Juan waved her hand firmly: "No, no, no, I won't accept the gift without permission. You should take these things back and feed your family."
She would never sell her stepson for two cans of food.
Feng Juan firmly refused, and Sun Lan did not force her to accept it. She could only smile awkwardly and said, "Then Xiao Zhu, please put the canned food on my seat in the car. I will take it back and give it to your nephew."
Sun Zhu nodded.
Sun Zhu turned and walked away. Sun Lan took the opportunity to say, "Aunt, you see, since our two families can become neighbors, this is a great fate. As the saying goes, a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. If this fate can be taken a step further and become closer, wouldn't it be even better? And your Qin Zheng is so outstanding, isn't he? He is a sister-in-law in the family compound. Who wouldn't want to introduce him to their relatives? So I was thinking, can I match him with my sister..."
Sun Lan rubbed her hands and said a little awkwardly, "You met my sister today. Although she's not the most beautiful, she's a pretty girl in a crowd. She's also a high school graduate. After graduation, she has a good job as a cadre in the factory union, and she earns 36 yuan a month. If she gets married, she won't have to rely entirely on a man for support. Marrying her is much better than having an unemployed housewife who has to spend all her money on a man to support her. So, what do you think?"
"You can't say that," Feng Juan said disapprovingly. "It's true that young women with jobs are independent and self-reliant. But that doesn't mean housewives are worthless. Without housewives working tirelessly at home, doing the laundry, cooking, caring for the elderly, raising children, and keeping the household in perfect order, how could men go out and strive for success without any worries? You can't just write off all the contributions these women make."
Before getting married, Feng Juan was a nurse in a hospital. She had a job and was an independent, self-reliant, and modern woman. But after she got married and had to take care of her family, she had to quit her job in the hospital.
At that time, Qin Lin was fully focused on suppressing bandits. She was also pregnant, and there was a 14-year-old stepson at home who was energetic and always getting into trouble. If she hadn't quit her job and focused on taking care of the family, how could Qin Lin balance her family and work?
It's so difficult for him, he can't do it.
Feng Juan frowned, glanced at Sun Lan unhappily, and said, "Xiao Lan, you are a military wife, your awareness should not be so low."
Sun Lan works in the kitchen of the family compound cafeteria. Although it's not just a job cutting vegetables and washing dishes, she already feels very happy. After all, there are many families in the family compound and few jobs. Even if it's just a job as a dishwasher, there are still many people waiting in line.
She can stand up straight because she earns money. She also always thinks she is better than those women who have no jobs and can only ask men for money.
So by saying those words, Cun'e was deliberately trying to elevate his cousin Sun Zhu'e.
But she didn't expect that these words would make her flatter the horse's leg and instead make Feng Juan unhappy.
Oh, it's also her fault. She was so intent on promoting Sun Zhu that she forgot that Feng Juan was just a housewife!
"Auntie, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I know what you mean. I was tongue-tied and said the wrong thing just now."
Sun Lan was also a flexible person, and she quickly explained with a smile, "Housewives do have their own value. I'm not denying it, nor am I erasing it. I just expressed it incorrectly in the heat of the moment. I just think it's very beneficial for women to work and share the burden of the family. Besides, my sister and Qin Zheng are comparable, and both are single. I think they're a good match, and I don't want to miss out."
Feng Juan's heart skipped a beat.
I thought Sun Lan was very persistent and shameless.
Even in this situation, she still managed to move forward.
No, she had to think of a way quickly that would not hurt the relationship and would make Sun Lan give up this idea.
After all, we are neighbors living in the same building, separated only by a wall, so we don't want things to get too awkward.
Feng Juan forced a smile and said embarrassment, "Xiao Lan, you don't have to explain. Your sister is indeed quite good, but this matter depends on Qin Zheng's own wishes. Free love is advocated nowadays, and as a father, you shouldn't interfere too much. I'm his stepmother, and there's already a barrier between us, so I shouldn't say anything more."
Sun Lan said hurriedly, "That's right, it's been difficult to be a stepmother since ancient times. I understand your difficulties, aunt. However, I won't force it, but at least let Qin Zheng meet my sister."
"Ever since I went back to my parents' home last time and told my sister about Qin Zheng, my sister has been completely obsessed with him and refuses to go on blind dates with anyone else, so..." Sun Lan also looked to be in a dilemma: "How about you please be a good person and mediate between them and at least let the two of them meet."
Feng Juan thought to herself that it was not good.
It seems that the Sun Lan sisters are really determined to stick with Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng's rejection was so obvious, and he also acted as if he didn't understand what he was saying.
They haven't even met each other, but they're already clinging to me. If we really meet, won't it be like a dog-skin plaster that won't come off no matter how hard you try?
no.
The two of them cannot meet.
Although she was only Qin Zheng's stepmother, she looked down on such a daughter-in-law. She was too shameless.
