In fact, the Chi family understood Liu Demiao's thoughts.
But this seems a bit too deliberate.
However, the Chi family members all had a good impression of Yun Zhao, so no one showed any dissatisfaction towards him.
On the contrary, they were very hospitable, but worried that Yun Zhao would feel uncomfortable.
Yun Zhao is also a smart and perceptive girl.
On the third day after arriving at the Chi family, she openly and generously approached them to confide in them.
"...My father did want to match me up with Wuhu. But I also know what Wuhu means..."
"Yun Zhao, actually, your aunt still likes you very much. It's just that marriage is something that can't be explained logically. It's not that you're not good enough, it's just..."
Aunt Chi quickly comforted Yun Zhao.
Seeing the girl's flushed face, she felt a pang of concern.
Yun Zhao smiled and shook her head: "Auntie, I know. I will never feel sorry for myself because Wu Hu doesn't like my son. His dislike for me doesn't mean I'm bad. I know that."
"Ah! That's more like it, what a good girl."
It's good that you understand.
She was genuinely worried that this matter would cause a rift between the two families.
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "So, aunts, you don't need to think about how to treat me... I will have a good talk with my father after I go back this time."
"Mmm. Yun Zhao, you're such a good girl."
Aunt Chi really liked this girl.
Intelligent, generous, open-minded, and perceptive.
And the work is progressing smoothly.
If Xiao Wu could like Yun Zhao, that would be the best outcome.
But her son didn't like it, and she couldn't possibly force him to do anything...
These things can't be forced.
"Then Auntie, you must continue to pamper me." Yun Zhao smiled and nestled next to Aunt Chi, her smile natural and generous.
Actually, for Yun Zhao...
For several years now, her father has been saying that he hopes she will marry the fifth son of the Chi family.
She never felt there was anything wrong with following her parents' arrangements for marriage.
So after hearing it so much, she developed different expectations for the fifth son of the Chi family.
After meeting him, Yun Zhao thought he was a decent person.
Marrying him as my father said wouldn't be difficult at all.
She just hadn't expected that Chi Jia Xiao Wu wouldn't like her.
Actually, once you understand these things, they're not a big deal.
Once you let go of those lingering emotions, that's it.
There's no need to keep dwelling on it or constantly thinking about it; doing so might actually harm you.
"Of course! Our Yun Zhao is so good, who knows which brat will end up with her!"
Aunt Chi pulled Yun Zhao along, liking her more and more as she looked at her, and couldn't help but say, "When Tangtang grows up, she'll get married too..."
"Nonsense! My daughter won't get married, she'll only take in a son-in-law who will live with her family!" Old Man Chi retorted, his face flushed red.
At the same time, he made a bold and ambitious statement!
My daughter will only marry into my family in the future!
That way, my daughter can stay at home all the time.
Aunt Chi spat and cursed, "Shut up, you old hag! How many good sons-in-law can live with their wives? Our daughter will marry the best!"
"So what if he's a good son-in-law? If he really wanted our daughter, he would have agreed!"
Old Man Chi stubbornly argued back.
The thought of his daughter not being by his side in the future makes Old Man Chi feel like the sky has fallen and he's no longer beautiful.
Besides, my daughter is only five years old, why is she thinking about these things?
Isn't that hitting him where it hurts?
"Get out!"
Aunt Chi cursed once and then ignored the man.
If you keep arguing with this man, it'll never end!
Old Man Chi didn't bother with her and immediately picked up his daughter and left.
"...Yun Zhao, tell me, isn't your Uncle Chi being quite unreasonable?" Aunt Chi complained to Yun Zhao angrily.
This was also to get closer to Yun Zhao, so that the girl wouldn't feel ignored.
Yun Zhao smiled, looking very envious: "My uncle really can't bear to part with Tangtang."
"Who could bear to part with her? Do you think your parents would be willing to marry you off? They wouldn't even know how you'd live after that. It's just that they have no other choice. That's why raising a daughter isn't so good."
Aunt Chi looked lost and dejected.
If you're raising a daughter, you'll inevitably experience this sooner or later.
No one can avoid it.
"Don't worry, Auntie. We'll find Tangtang a place to live nearby in the future, so she can come back every day."
"Oh dear, Yun Zhao, no matter how close your daughter marries, she can't go back to her parents' home every day. Otherwise, her in-laws will complain."
As she laughed, tears welled up in Aunt Chi's eyes.
No matter how close you are to your husband, things will be different.
"...So getting married is really this bad?" Yun Zhao murmured.
I've imagined what it would be like to get married countless times.
In her imagination, she could live a good life, her parents would be at ease, her in-laws would be satisfied, and her husband would respect her...
But seeing Aunt Chi's sad appearance now, she realized that she had been thinking too simply.
"You can't say that. Getting married has its advantages. Let me tell you, after you get married, you need to respect and be filial to your husband's family, but you can't be too lenient. You need to weigh things yourself..."
Looking at Yun Zhao, who was already twelve years old, Aunt Chi couldn't help but talk about some things that happened after they got married.
And provide examples.
"...When the time comes, your parents will certainly give you a generous dowry, so you'll be even more confident! Remember, you're not eating or drinking their food; you're only being filial to them out of respect for your elders."
But if they take advantage of you, you have to stand up for yourself! Because everyone is learning as they go, and if you tolerate it the first time, they'll go even further next time! You should do this…”
This talk has gone on for quite a while.
It wasn't until Aunt Chi finished drinking a pot of tea that she realized she had been lecturing a little girl for a long time.
Aunt Chi said somewhat embarrassedly, "Look at me, I just keep going on and on, and you've had to listen to my nagging..."
These days, which young child wants to listen to their parents nagging?
Even if it's something good for them, it's the same.
"How could that be? Auntie is telling me things I didn't know before. I'd love for Auntie to tell me more about these things."
Yun Zhao blushed shyly and said softly, "I hope that after I get married, I can live in harmony with my husband's family."
Although her mother loved her, she mostly taught her household management skills.
As for how mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law should get along, or even how they should get along with their husbands, my mother never said a word about it.
Moreover, she also understands her mother.
If it's your mother's opinion, it will definitely cause friction in the future. As long as it's not a big deal, you should be tolerant!
For a mother, family reputation and honor are the most important things.
"You like listening to this? Then Auntie will continue telling you..."
Actually, Aunt Chi really likes to talk about those things from the past, especially when she lived in the countryside.
There's a strong sense of daily life there, and the whole family spends all day together.
It's just a pity that no one in her family is willing to listen to her talk about these things.
Now that Yun Zhao was willing to listen, Aunt Chi couldn't stop talking...?
