Chapter 165: Chen Zhengnian has a hidden illness?
Mother Lu frowned. She looked at Su Tang and Wang Xinxin who had gathered around her, especially Wang Xinxin's nervous face, and sighed heavily.
"Your aunt...she found a date for Xinxin in her hometown."
Lu Ma's voice was filled with embarrassment as she carefully watched Wang Xinxin's reaction.
"He's the son of the newly transferred deputy director of their factory. I heard he's quite energetic and comes from a well-off family. Your aunt thinks that's a good, stable marriage, a perfect match."
"He also said that if Xinxin returned, their family would be reunited and they wouldn't have to be apart so often."
Having said that, Su Tang still understood some meaning from Lu Ma's words.
Wang Xinxin's mother probably didn't want Wang Xinxin to marry to the northwest.
Moreover, she had never met Chen Zhengnian, so she would naturally think too much.
It may be similar to Chen Zhengnian’s previous concerns.
The two have very different identities, and Chen Zhengnian's family situation is complicated.
If Wang Xinxin married him, she might even be wronged.
It’s better to choose an old family member who knows you better.
This idea is understandable. After all, parents always plan more for their children.
"What?!"
Wang Xinxin took a step back in shock, her eyes wide open. The sweetness that Chen Zhengnian had just brought her was instantly replaced by grievance.
"My mom...how could she do this?! She didn't even ask me!"
Her voice trembled and her eyes immediately turned red.
Wang Xinxin thought that since she had received the approval of Lu's father and mother, the matter was settled.
I didn't expect that there would be complications with my own mother's side, and that the deputy director's son would be involved.
Su Tang quickly held Wang Xinxin's arm, and his heart sank.
She understood that her aunt, as a mother, wanted to find a better home for her daughter, but this move was indeed too sudden and too inconsiderate of Xinxin's feelings.
"Mom, I've never met Commander Chen. I don't know how good he is to Xinxin, nor do I know how Xinxin feels about him! This..."
Su Tang tried to join in.
Mother Lu waved her hands, and the worry on her face grew even darker.
"Not only that, your aunt also asked about Chen Zhengnian. She heard from somewhere that Chen Zhengnian was seriously injured on the battlefield before and almost died. She was worried..."
When Mrs. Lu said this, her voice lowered even more, with an awkward tone that was hard to express.
"She was worried that if she hurt him, it would be bad for Xinxin in the future. She was afraid that Xinxin would not even be able to have a child if she followed him."
These words were like a thunderclap, striking the silent living room.
Su Tang was stunned. He had never expected this to be the reason.
She knew that Chen Zhengnian was injured, but it didn't affect her at all.
I had a checkup before the surgery.
"How can you listen to and say such things casually?"
"Chen Zhengnian is in good health. He's a soldier and a hero. How can you think of him like this?"
Wang Xinxin was so angry that she was shaking all over, feeling wronged and unfair for Chen Zhengnian.
Mother Lu hugged Wang Xinxin with heartache.
"Auntie doesn't believe it either. Chen Lu is so energetic and strong, it's obvious that he's not her. But you know your mother's personality, she's very stubborn and insists on her own opinions.
She believes everything she hears, and now she's completely obsessed with the deputy director's son and thinks Chen Zhengnian is a potential risk."
Mother Lu patted Wang Xinxin's back, feeling very worried.
"She said that either Xinxin should go back and see the deputy director's son, or she should ask Chen Zhengnian to go back to his hometown and let her see him in person. It would be best if he could go to the hospital to get a certificate or something, so that she could feel at ease."
"Issue a certificate?!"
Wang Xinxin suddenly raised her head, tears still hanging on her eyelashes, and her face was full of absurdity.
"This... this is simply an insult to Brother Zhengnian!"
She imagined a proud and resolute man like Chen Zhengnian having to issue such a certificate for their sake, and her heart felt like it was being torn apart.
"I'm not going back! I don't want him to get any proof! If my mom doesn't believe me, let her come and see for herself!"
Su Tang was also full of worries. This incident had caused a lot of trouble.
Although my aunt's concerns are unreasonable, in this era, especially for a mother who cares about her daughter's future, it seems... a little understandable.
But this starting point actually hurt the two young people.
"So what do we do now?"
Su Tang looked at Lu Ma.
Mother Lu sighed, "What can we do? Your aunt was furious on the phone, saying Xinxin was getting cocky and disobedient, and that we were pushing her into trouble..."
The words went on and on, and it was very unpleasant to listen to. In the end, he said that either Xinxin should go back quickly, or Chen Zhengnian should go to her in person and explain everything clearly, so that she could see what kind of person he was and whether his health was okay.
She paused and added.
"She also said that if Chen Zhengnian didn't dare to go, or if going wouldn't prove anything, then the matter should be dropped as soon as possible!"
"I'll go."
A voice suddenly came from the door.
The three people in the room turned around in astonishment at the same time.
I saw Chen Zhengnian standing at the open door at some point.
The tall figure was facing away from the light, so the expression on his face couldn't be seen clearly.
He obviously heard the most crucial part at the end.
Chen Zhengnian walked in step by step, his eyes fell on Wang Xinxin's face with heartache.
"Uncle, aunt, I heard it."
"I understand Xinxin's mother's concerns. As parents, we all want the best for our children."
He walked up to Wang Xinxin and held her hand.
"I will go to Xinxin's hometown and meet with my uncle and aunt in person. If they have any questions or concerns, I will answer them face to face and resolve them face to face. As for..."
He paused, his eyes sharp as a knife.
"As for those groundless concerns, I will use my own methods to let my aunt see and hear the truth with her own eyes and ears. For Xinxin, this is nothing."
He held Wang Xinxin's hand tightly and looked at her with burning eyes: "Trust me, and trust the person you choose. We will get through this together."
Chen Zhengnian's words were powerful and like a reassurance.
She shook his hand back firmly and nodded vigorously.
Mother Lu looked at the young couple, then at the frankness and fearlessness on Chen Zhengnian's face, and most of the worries in her heart dissipated.
"Good boy, good boy... I'm glad you have this intention. Go ahead, we have nothing to fear! Auntie supports you!"
Dad Lu walked up to Chen Zhengnian and patted him on the shoulder.
"I'm sorry for wronging you, but you did the right thing in this matter. You acted like a man! Go and talk to her properly and explain everything that needs to be explained. We are upright and have nothing to fear from others. Xinxin's mother may have a sharp tongue but a soft heart, so you have to bear with her."
"I understand, uncle."
Chen Zhengnian nodded solemnly: "I will take care of it."
Without further ado, Chen Zhengnian acted decisively.
He immediately submitted a family visit report to his superiors and explained the situation.
The military leaders were also very concerned about the marriage of this combat hero, and since he had performed well recently, his leave was approved smoothly.
He has never bowed his head to anyone in his life, but for Wang Xinxin, he is willing to do so.
