Chapter 360 Mary Sue's Sister-in-law (15)
After talking to Hong Yunyun about love affairs and gaining a lot, the two were about to leave the shopping mall. Suddenly, Hong Yunyun touched Ning Shichu's arm and pursed her lips, "Look, is that your brother?"
Ning Shichu looked in the direction she pointed and saw Ning Zhiyi, who was stuffing a skirt into the arms of the girl next to him with a domineering look on his face.
Isn't that girl the stubborn Chang Jiaer? It seems that the two of them are in the early sweet period of love, otherwise Ning Zhiyi would not bring Chang Jiaer to buy branded clothes.
"Your brother has a girlfriend? That girl is his girlfriend, right? Wow, I didn't expect that he even brought his girlfriend out shopping." Hong Yunyun said with a sigh.
"Do you want to go up and say hello?" She picked up Ning Shichu, who was watching the fun.
Ning Shichu rolled her eyes and said, "When you're shopping sweetly with your boyfriend, would you be happy to have a bright light bulb? We have not just one, but two."
"Hehe! You're right. If anyone dares to disturb me and the young hunk when we're having a love affair, I can twist his head off!" Hong Yunyun realized that what she was doing was inappropriate, so she said with a smile.
Although she couldn't go up to greet Ning Zhiyi's girlfriend and get to know her openly, it didn't mean that Hong Yunyun's curiosity disappeared. She asked Ning Shichu curiously, "Who is your brother's girlfriend? Whose daughter is she? She looks a little unfamiliar."
Hong Yunyun is a socialite in the city. There is no man or woman in the upper class that she doesn't know. Now that she says that Chang Jiaer looks unfamiliar, she has some guesses about Chang Jiaer's background.
"She is not a daughter of some rich family, but a girl from an ordinary family. My brother doesn't care about her background, he only cares about true love." Ning Shichu said lightly.
When Hong Yunyun heard her words, her eyes widened immediately. It was impossible for her not to understand what Ning Shichu meant. Usually, families like theirs would pay attention to marrying off daughters and daughters of equal status, and rarely would they marry someone of lower social status.
Of course, there are also a very small number of young masters and young ladies who claim to have found true love and will fight with their families for their unequal sweethearts, causing big and small troubles. Hong Yunyun immediately put Ning Zhiyi into this story of a rich young man falling in love with Cinderella.
And she was not wrong. The love between Ning Zhiyi and Chang Jiaer was indeed one of these story templates.
"This... does your family agree?" Hong Yunyun asked Ning Shichu hesitantly.
"I don't know about that, but this is the lover he found himself. As long as he insists, his parents probably won't be able to persuade him otherwise. After all, no parents have ever been able to persuade their children otherwise. He just may suffer some setbacks in the beginning." Ning Shichu said.
She was right. Didn't Ning Zhiyi and Chang Jiaer finally get married and gain the approval of Ning's parents? In the process, the sadomasochism caused by family background and various misunderstandings were just some setbacks. They could get through it smoothly no matter what, and there was no need for outsiders to worry.
“That’s true…” Hong Yunyun nodded, but in her heart she was not optimistic about the relationship between Ning Zhiyi and her husband. There were several couples in the circle who were not well-matched. When the men were young, they fought back and made a fuss to force their parents to compromise and marry their true love. But after a few years or even more than ten years, their true love grew old and lost her beauty, and the men “made the mistake that all men in the world would make” and went looking for other young and beautiful “true love”. Illegitimate children jumped out one after another, making the family in chaos.
There are no more than three couples who can truly live together forever and live in harmony. Will Ning Zhiyi and Chang Jiaer become a happy couple or a couple of resentment? Hong Yunyun does not hold out much hope for this. The Cinderella story only has a happy ending in phone calls, but in reality it often ends in tragedy.
"Okay, don't think too much about it. This is not something I should worry about." Ning Shichu shrugged and pulled Hong Yunyun away in another direction. He didn't want to meet Ning Zhiyi.
"Why do you seem to be so indifferent to your brother's love life? Aren't you afraid that his wife will not get along with you?" Hong Yunyun was a little puzzled by Ning Shichu's attitude. Wasn't she acting too indifferent?
Ning Shichu sneered, "If you don't get along, just don't meet each other as much as possible. Isn't this a simple truth? Ning Zhiyi won't look for a wife based on my preferences. Aren't you worrying about nothing?"
"Okay, okay, just think positively about it, and don't be like my mother. Every time she comes back from her mother's house, she always complains about my aunt, saying how my aunt deliberately goes against her, the eldest sister-in-law. My mother has left me with a psychological trauma, ah!" Hong Yunyun sighed.
"Now my brother has to bring his girlfriend to me first, for fear that his future wife and I will become the next mother and aunt!"
Ning Shichu couldn't help but laugh after hearing what she said, and said sympathetically: "It seems that you two siblings have really suffered from psychological trauma."
Hong Yunyun curled her lips and nodded: "It's almost the same as the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. In fact, my uncle is the one who suffers the most. One is his sister and the other is his wife. If the two sides quarrel, who do you think he should help? No matter who he helps, he will end up making both sides look like a nobody."
"So Chuchu, don't think that what kind of wife your brother finds has nothing to do with you. In fact, it is closely related, unless you can choose not to go back to your parents' home." Hong Yunyun concluded.
"I only go back a few times a year. I can bear it." Ning Shichu said confidently.
"How many times a year do you go back? Don't you spend more than half of the month at your parents' home? Don't you have to maintain a good relationship with your brother and sister-in-law?" Hong Yunyun didn't believe it at all. In the past, Ning Shichu really went to the Ning's home from time to time and wanted to move back to her parents' home. Now she said that she went back to her parents' home a few times a year. It would be strange for Hong Yunyun to believe it.
Ning Shichu smiled and said, "I just got married and wasn't used to it, so I went back to my parents' house all the time. Now I've been married for more than a year, and I've gradually gotten used to it. Besides, if I go back to my parents' house all the time, the Xi family will have opinions, so I naturally can't help but consider my in-laws."
Ning Shichu found a perfect excuse. As expected, Hong Yunyun did not doubt her and looked at her with sympathy: "As expected, married women have no freedom. They even have to think about when to go back to their parents' home. Fortunately, I have not yet entered the grave of marriage."
Hong Yunyun didn't know that if Ning Shichu continued to go to the Ning family as often as the original owner, he would be used as a knife by Ning's mother to separate Ning Zhiyi and Chang Jiaer, and end up in tragedy. So she thought that Ning Shichu was torn between his natal family and his in-laws' family.
But in fact, Ning Shichu was not embarrassed at all. She and Xi Ciming moved out as soon as they got married. They didn't have to live with their parents-in-law, nor did they have to go back to the Ning family. They were so free.
