Xiang Liwei was flattered and said, "Yes, as the old saying goes, a virtuous wife brings prosperity to three generations. Jinxiu, in my heart, you are as great as my second aunt."
These are not flattery, but come from the heart.
He felt that he was not outstanding, and finding a good girl like Hang Jinxiu was a pie in the sky. He once wondered if he was dreaming?
Now that he had drunk some wine and was a little tipsy, Xiang Liwei secretly pinched his thigh flesh to make sure that happiness had really fallen on him.
Hang Jinxiu was embarrassed by the praise: "No way, don't talk nonsense. Oh, right, four cousins came to my second aunt's house. Didn't they say they have six children? Didn't their family also go to the countryside?"
Since Xiang Liwei had said that he was close to his second uncle's family, she would definitely ask about the situation clearly so as not to offend anyone foolishly.
Everyone in the Hang family is a teacher. When Hang Jinxiu was sixteen years old, she was almost sent to the countryside. If her father had not quickly assigned her to the school logistics department, she would have been in great trouble.
Later, through my own efforts, I passed the exam and became a formal teacher, so I no longer had to worry about going to the countryside.
It's not a good idea to ask Zhang Jidi directly about this matter. It would be bad if it hurts someone's lungs. Of course, it's safer to ask Xiang Liwei in private.
Don't listen to those rumors you heard from others. They are too much artistic processing and cannot be believed.
Xiang Liwei opened his arms and warmed her hands. "Second aunt's six children are all in the county town and didn't go to the countryside. Fourth cousin Xiang Lihua is a doctor, and sixth cousin Xiang Mianmian is a teacher at a technical secondary school. She was the one who helped us buy this house."
He briefly told the story of Xiang Mianmian and his family going to Teacher You Wenyu to buy a house, and looked around the house with emotion in his eyes.
How much effort must he put in to be as good as his cousin, who can do everything with ease?
Hang Jinxiu became even more curious: "Wow, that's amazing, then why didn't she attend our wedding, right?"
Needless to say, it was normal for her fourth cousin, who was a medic, not to come. She frowned slightly, fearing that her sixth cousin might have a problem with her getting pregnant before marriage.
Since the two families live not far from each other, it stands to reason that they would give them face and attend the wedding.
Xiang Liwei retracted his gaze and quickly explained, "No, no, no, it has nothing to do with you. She's on secondment to Shanghai to teach, and I don't know when she'll be back."
Is it that powerful?
Hang Jinxiu widened her beautiful eyes and said in an admiring tone, "I know about secondment, but this is the first time I've heard of secondment to Shanghai? Cousin Mianmian is even better than my dad!"
This was a leap from her younger generation to the older generation, a level of excellence that was beyond her reach.
Seeing her getting excited, Xiang Liwei had to pat her hand: "Don't tell anyone. Second Aunt's family is very low-key and usually doesn't mention this matter."
Generally speaking, if you have such an outstanding daughter, everyone would clamor for her and wish the whole world would know about it.
But Xiang Hongqi's family is very low-key. Even if they are asked about it during a normal conversation, they will just brush it off and won't say much about Xiang Mianmian's affairs.
Xiang Liwei keenly sensed that something was wrong, but he pretended not to know and continued to defend himself.
His second uncle's family treated him well and taught him a lot of common sense, which helped Xiang Liwei avoid many detours when he was setting up a foothold in the county.
If Xiang Hongqi didn't treat him as his own nephew, he wouldn't have spent his time and energy to help.
This time, his cousin helped him find a house with just a few simple questions, which was equivalent to his whole family's efforts for a month, so he stopped talking about Xiang Mianmian.
He only mentioned it briefly to his wife, fearing that it would cause trouble for Xiang Mianmian.
Hang Jinxiu seemed to understand: "Oh, I see. When my cousin comes back, we will go and thank her together."
Although she didn't know why she couldn't talk more about her cousin, she decided to do as Xiang Liwei asked and listened to his advice and had a full meal.
Buying a house is such an important matter, which concerns their marriage, so of course they should take it seriously.
The cousin helped her cousin buy a house. Helping was a favor, but not helping was her duty. As a new daughter-in-law, she had to go and express her gratitude for the sake of the baby in her belly.
If she hadn't bought this house, she might have to say goodbye to her children by now.
Seeing that she agreed, Xiang Liwei felt relieved: "Well, let's bring some gifts when the time comes. By the way, is your sister still waiting for Lin Wu to come back?"
It was a very clever and natural way to change the subject, so we didn't discuss Xiang Mianmian anymore.
Hang Jinxiu was worried about her sister: "Yes, my sister has always had a soft spot for Lin Wu. Now he's missing. I tried to persuade her to let it go, but it was useless. Mom and Dad are very worried."
She didn't know that Hang Zhenzhen had taken advantage of the wedding to run to the Lin family again, and was caught red-handed by Hang's father when she returned home.
The two chatted about family matters and went straight to sleep without bothering to reconcile the gift money book.
This thing can be used at any time. They have been busy preparing for the wedding all day, so it is more important for them to rest.
