Since the moment they entered the house, these two ladies have been praising Pan Mingyue for how great she is, but they never mentioned a word about the fact that Pan Mingyue had lost her husband and had three children!
Lan Guoer felt uncomfortable when she thought that if her father married Pan Mingyue, he would have to raise children for someone else at such an old age!
"Are you talking about Pan Mingyue, the woman whose husband has died and who has three children under ten? If that's her, my second brother and I have seen her on the train."
Su Yan realized who they were talking about later, and cooperated with Lan Guoer tacitly.
"Yes, we came back on the same train yesterday! That lesbian's mother is really difficult to get along with!"
Although the Pan family and the Su family both lived in the same compound, one lived in the east courtyard and the other in the west courtyard, and they entered and exited through different gates. In addition, there was a big age difference between them, so it was normal that Su Yan did not recognize the old lady of the Pan family.
Hearing Lan Guoer and Su Yan interrupting, a hint of unnaturalness flashed in the eyes of the two sisters-in-law. How could they know the details of the Pan family's youngest daughter better than them!
It wasn't like they were hiding anything on purpose, but that's how matchmaking works. They always have to whet the appetite by showing off enough positive qualities before slowly introducing the negatives. They just hadn't had time to talk about it yet.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
Old Master Su and Su Guosheng looked at each other, and saw confusion in each other's eyes - what kind of evil is the Pan family trying to do again?
"Thank you for your concern, sisters-in-law! I really have no plans to remarry, and besides, I am not suitable for this woman from the Pan family!" Su Guosheng stood up and said,
"Sisters-in-law, please sit for a while. I have some official business to attend to, so I won't accompany you."
Sister Hua and Sister Liu watched Su Guosheng close the door of the study, and like eggplants hit by frost, they instantly lost the energy they had when they first arrived.
"Then we won't bother you."
The two of them stood up in disappointment. They still had to go back and report to Pan Minghui...
Hearing the sound of two people leaving the study, Su Guosheng walked out of the study.
"Dad, what do you think the Pan family is up to this time?" Su Guosheng asked, pacing back and forth in the living room with his hands behind his back.
"Who cares what medicine it is! We just won't take the challenge." Old Master Su calmly flipped through the newspaper in his hand without even looking at him.
Lan Guoer didn't know the origins of the Su and Pan families, but she could still hear some clues from the conversation between Old Man Su and Su Guosheng, "Does the Pan family have any grudges against our family?"
Hearing his granddaughter's question, Grandpa Su's expression changed slightly. The Pan family was thoughtful and cunning, so he felt that it was better to tell them some things in advance so that they could be prepared.
He put down the newspaper and said, "I have some grudges with that old man from the Pan family..."
Mr. Su eloquently recounted the past disputes between him and Mr. Su without hiding anything, and finally reminded him,
"Old Man Pan's eldest son is a man of deep thoughts and calculations! We rejected the marriage proposal this time, but who knows what conspiracy he might come up with next? You should all be more cautious in your actions recently and don't fall into his trap."
"I know, Grandpa!"
Lan Guoer responded, and the others nodded secretly. Even Xiaojie frowned and nodded his head lightly.
Grandpa Su looked at his sensible children and grandchildren, raised the corners of his lips in satisfaction, and was secretly happy in his heart:
Thank goodness Alan chose me back then! Marrying a virtuous wife truly benefits three generations! Look, how well-behaved are his children, brought up by Alan? And look at the ones that old man Pan married... Tsk! Tsk! No wonder that old man wasn't convinced!
Soon, Pan Minghui learned the news of the Su family's rejection from the two matchmakers. The two matchmakers spoke very vaguely, only saying that Su Guosheng had no plans to remarry.
Pan Minghui had a lot of thoughts in his mind. He stared at a place not far away with a gloomy look, and his eyes flashed with unwillingness and resentment.
Su Guosheng was a man after all, so how could he possibly resist the temptation of a beautiful woman? He firmly believed that as long as he found the right method, he would be able to make Su Guosheng fall at Pan Mingyue's feet.
After all, he placed the future of the Pan family on Su Guosheng. He wanted to do everything he could to make Su Guosheng a chess piece in his hands, bringing endless glory and benefits to him and the Pan family.
This time, he knocked on Pan Mingyue's door without hesitation.
"Brother, is there something wrong?" Seeing that Pan Minghui looked unhappy, Pan Mingyue invited him into the house.
"Xiaoyue, it's not easy for you to raise three children by yourself!"
Pan Minghui sat down at the desk and said straight to the point, "I've found a good family for you. I guarantee you'll be rich and prosperous after you marry into them, and your children will have a good future."
Pan Mingyue was stunned. She hadn't expected her elder brother to find her a new partner so quickly! He must have gotten her parents' approval to come to her so directly. Could it be that her family couldn't tolerate her?
She was in a state of confusion. "I won't marry! If the Pan family can't accommodate me, they can just let me take the children and leave. Why bother?"
"Don't get excited yet!"
Pan Minghui was already in a bad mood, and seeing Pan Mingyue was so opposed to remarriage, he took a deep breath and suppressed the irritability in his heart.
"How can my brother harm you? Look at you now. You are a woman with three children. How can you give them a good life?
It’s okay for you to go out and beg for food, but do you want your children to live a hard life with you?
I'm a man, and I'm going to tell you something from the bottom of my heart: a woman's best years are just a few years, and they'll pass in the blink of an eye!
Why don't you find a good family to marry now? Do you want to wait until you are middle-aged, with wrinkles all over your face, and abandoned by everyone? By then, even if you want to marry, I'm afraid no one will want you! Not to mention a good family!"
After Pan Minghui finished speaking earnestly, he turned his head away in anger, watching Pan Mingyue's reaction out of the corner of his eye.
Pan Mingyue stood there in a daze, and Pan Minghui's words stimulated her brain nerves.
Yes! Her life was already ruined, so was she going to ruin her children's lives too?
Now, she's been reduced to living as a parasite back home. What is she still clinging to? Dignity? Face? Chastity? ...or that worthless stubbornness deep in her bones?
At that moment, she seemed to hear the sound of something breaking in her head, and she suddenly didn't want to live like this anymore.
Just get married! Isn't that what a woman's life is all about? Marry, have children, and then live under the man's wings for the rest of her life! It seems like there's nothing wrong with that...
She compromised, the light in her eyes dissipated at this moment, "Okay, I'll marry you!"
Seeing that she had figured it out, Pan Minghui smiled knowingly, "Just tell me, how could I harm you! What I want you to marry is..."
