"Beiyang, that's not what Mom meant, but dividing the family is really not an option. Can you please persuade Xiao Jiang to stop being so stubborn? She has an older brother, so he should take care of her in her old age. Our family can give her more betrothal gifts, so that you and her can go back to visit her parents more often..."
Yan Beiyang interrupted Dong Dayun, "Mom, why don't you go and persuade your sister-in-law? She's being unreasonable, didn't you see?"
"I want to persuade him, but how can I? Your sister-in-law is completely confused. Did you let your eldest brother divorce her? Do you have the heart to let Wenbin be without a mother? And then let Sun Xin go out and talk nonsense and arrest you?"
"I can't bear it. Sun Xin didn't even care about her son for herself. As his uncle, what should I care about? She can say whatever she wants. What does it have to do with me? Does she mean what she says? Does she have any evidence? Or do you want to be Sun Xin's witness? If Sun Xin dares to go out and sue, I will send her to jail."
"You...you're completely crazy. Are you going to destroy our family just for Jiang Shushu?"
"Okay, if we don't want to split up, then I'll move out. I'll give you ten dollars every month, and I'll be responsible for any headaches you and Dad have. Xiao Jiang and I will live out here."
"How is that any different from splitting up the family? Do you want to be a live-in son-in-law? Where will your father and I put our dignity? Do you want us and your father to die of ridicule? With your conditions, you can find any woman. Why choose someone like Jiang Shushu?"
"What's wrong with Shushu? She's better than anyone else. Her parents are rich and have a house. Shushu brought her parents to live with her in their old age. What's wrong with that? Do you have to be so dissatisfied? Whose money is this? Who is Sun Xin? During the famine, she always liked to secretly take things from home and give them to her parents. After the famine ended, she was starving to death. She was half human, half ghost. If I hadn't risked my life to ask my friends to bring back food, she would have died. How dare she say that to me? I'd rather have a dog than her.
Dong Dayun felt angry and disappointed when he saw Yan Beiyang, who was arguing with everyone for Jiang Shushu.
We must not let Beiyang be with Jiang Shushu. Before they get married, Beiyang dares to ignore his family for that woman. If they really get married, it will be terrible. I guess he won’t even care about us old couple. The son whom I raised with great effort will have to go to someone else’s family to be taken care of in his old age.
"You love Jiang Shushu, but does she love you? I didn't want to cause unrest in our family, so I went to see her this morning. I wanted her to give up the idea of supporting her parents in their old age, but she refused without even a second thought. Jiang Shushu doesn't have you in her heart at all."
"Mom, who asked you to go find her? Have you ever considered my feelings?"
"I went to find Jiang Shushu only after considering your feelings. You are a grown man, and you think you are so proud of it for taking care of her parents in their old age! I proposed to Jiang Shushu to give her double the betrothal gift, which she could keep for her parents, and promised her that as long as she wanted to go home to see her parents, I would let you go with her and support her in giving her parents some help. I only asked her not to take her parents to live with her. But Jiang Shushu refused without even thinking about it. If Jiang Shushu really loved you, how could she not think about you at all? She just wanted to find someone to support her parents and serve them for her. Beiyang, I am your mother. Can I really harm you? I just want you to have an easier life in the future. Jiang Shushu is not suitable for you."
"That's enough, Mom. I know whether Shushu is suitable for me or not..."
"You...you...you make me so angry. Who am I doing this for but you? In the end, it's all my fault as your mother. I want you to marry a wife who is loyal to you. Am I wrong? I don't want your wife to be like your sister-in-law, who only has her parents' home in her eyes and heart. Am I wrong? I don't want your future wife to drag you down. Am I wrong?...You are going crazy now. I tell you, I don't agree with you marrying Jiang Shushu. If you dare to marry her, I will die in front of you." After Dong Dayun finished speaking, he gasped for breath, and then his body swayed, as if he could faint at any time.
Yan Beiyang was very worried when he saw Dong Dayun like this, and quickly ran over to help her up: "Mom, are you okay? Mom."
"I feel dizzy, help me back to the house and lie down for a while."
Yan Beiyang helped Dong Dayun lie back on the bed.
"Mom, I really like books..."
"Enough, I've said so much, don't you understand? Do you want to piss me off to death? If Jiang Shushu doesn't bring her parents to live with her in their old age, I would be happy to accept her as my daughter-in-law. But she insists on bringing her parents to live with her in their old age, so let's not talk about it anymore. I have a headache, you go out, sooner or later, you will understand your mother's painstaking efforts." Dong Dayun turned his head to the other side after saying this.
Yan Beiyang wanted to say something, but when he saw Dong Dayun's distressed expression, he opened his mouth but said nothing.
Later, Yan Beiyang found Yan Beilei and asked him to tell Sun Xin not to interfere in his affairs. But it was useless. Sun Xin insisted on not agreeing to Jiang Shushu's support for her parents in their old age. In short, it was either no support or support for both. If anyone dared to force her, she would fight to the death.
In the end, Yan Weiguo came to persuade Yan Beiyang, but Yan Beiyang was so angry that he ran out of the house.
Yan Beiyang came to the park where Jiang Shushu was jogging and sat in the park all night.
When Jiang Shushu arrived at the park in the morning, he saw Yan Beiyang, who was in a very bad mood.
When Jiang Shushu saw Yan Beiyang like this, he knew what would happen to the Yan family. Jiang Shushu sighed in his heart and walked over.
"Didn't you sleep last night?"
Yan Beiyang shook his head: "I couldn't sleep. I stayed here all night and thought about a lot of things."
Then the two of them didn't speak for a long time, and finally they both spoke at the same time.
"you……"
"you……"
"You go first..."
"You go first..."
Jiang Shushu: "You speak first."
Yan Beiyang's eyes were red: "I'm sorry, I failed your expectations. I'm not as capable as I thought."
"It's okay. Actually, I'm not as good as you think. You will meet someone who loves you more and is more suitable for you in the future."
Yan Beiyang looked at Jiang Shushu with hope in his eyes. "Shushu, if I tell you that I will work hard to make money, give your parents a full pension, and do my best to bring you home often for a day or two, will you agree to marry me?"
Jiang Shushu lowered his eyes, not looking at Yan Beiyang, "I'm sorry, I have to give my parents a stable old age, instead of leaving them alone at home. You can't let go of your parents, and neither can I."
