Chen Dongsheng didn't think there was anything wrong with doing some work. His daughter was too pampered.
She can’t even cook at this age, and her mother has to help her wash her clothes.
In the past two years, the factory did not allocate housing, so they lived with their son and daughter-in-law. Honghong and her two sisters-in-law had many conflicts over housework.
This is also the reason why he agreed to let his daughter date a country boy.
Since my family is better off than the man's family, marrying into their family is considered marrying down.
Even if she has some minor problems, the son-in-law should not dare to make his daughter angry.
Yu Huimin felt so distressed when she saw that her daughter was tired and hungry. She quickly started cooking noodles and specially made two poached eggs for her.
After she finished the big bowl of noodles, she smiled and said, "Honghong, I passed by the transport team today and saw the truck that was delivering goods to the south was back."
Chen Hong raised her head in surprise, "Mom, really?"
Seeing her daughter like this, Yu Huimin felt a little suspicious. She asked, "Honghong, don't you know? Didn't Han Zhenyu come to find you?"
After she said that, she remembered that her daughter was helping out in the warehouse today, so even if Han Zhenyu went to the union to look for her, he probably wouldn't be able to meet her.
Chen Hong lowered her head shyly, pouted and said, "Mom, what are you talking about? We haven't reached that stage yet."
"Ah, aren't you two dating?" Yu Huimin asked in surprise, and even Chen Dongsheng put down the newspaper in his hand.
Chen Hong knew her parents had misunderstood, so she blushed and said, "I do have feelings for him, but I haven't made it clear yet."
When she said this, she never thought that Han Zhenyu would look down on her despite her good conditions.
Afraid that her parents would object to their relationship, Chen Hong immediately stated, "Dad, Mom, I just like him, and I won't marry anyone else."
Only then did the couple realize what a big mistake they had made.
When the girl said this last time, they thought the two were dating, but they didn't expect they were still in the ambiguous stage.
Yu Huimin asked her: "Honghong, how long have you and Han Zhenyu known each other? Does he have the same feelings towards you?"
Chen Hong recalled the several times they had met. Han Zhenyu smiled every time he saw her, and she felt that he must have a good impression of her.
She blushed and nodded, "Dad, Mom, we have known each other for several months."
"Since you have known each other for such a long time and like each other, he has never told you about dating?"
Yu Huimin felt something was wrong. Given their family's financial situation, it was hard to justify hiring a temporary worker from the countryside.
Even a young man from the city would seize such a good opportunity to win the girl's heart. How could he remain ambiguous for so long without confessing his feelings?
"Mom, you know that their transport team is often on business trips, and I have to go to work, so we rarely run into each other."
Chen Hong glanced at her parents' faces, blushed, and mustered up the courage to say, "Dad, aren't you familiar with the leader of the transport team? Can you ask him to help pass on a message?"
Chen Dongsheng, Yu Huimin, "…"
Their own daughter actually asked them to find a matchmaker. She must like that boy so much.
Seeing that her parents remained silent, Chen Hong's face turned even redder.
She was afraid that her parents would think she was shameless, so she quickly explained, "Dad, Mom, Han Zhenyu must be afraid that our family would despise him because he is from the countryside, so he is too embarrassed to speak up."
If Chen Dongsheng had not gone to the Ministry of Transport to inquire about Han Zhenyu, he would have known that people there had a good opinion of him.
He now suspected that Han Zhenyu was deliberately keeping his daughter hanging in order to let Honghong take the initiative to ask him to date her.
Yu Huimin also thought that what her daughter said made sense. She met Han Zhenyu today.
The young man was very polite. Although he was from the countryside, he spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly and did not seem like the kind of person who would curry favor with the powerful.
Just like what my daughter said just now, she was probably afraid that her family would not agree, so she didn't make it clear.
But if their daughter was so eager to take the initiative, she might be controlled by that boy in the future, which was not what they wanted to see.
We have to find a way to get the men to take the initiative so that they can make their demands.
Seeing that her parents still didn't say anything, Chen Hong was so anxious that she was about to cry.
Just as I was thinking about how to convince them, there was a knock on the door.
Chen Hong was closest to the door. She stood up and opened the door. It was her aunt Chen Sujuan.
"Aunt." Chen Hong called out and lowered her head.
"What's the matter? What's going on?" Chen Sujuan touched her niece's face and asked with a smile, "Tell me, did your parents scold you? I'll help you vent your anger."
Chen Hong bit her lip and whispered, "No."
Chen Sujuan handed the snack in her hand to her and said, "Take it back to your room and eat it. I have something to discuss with your parents."
"Oh." Chen Hong glanced at her parents and went into her room obediently.
After she closed the door, Chen Sujuan whispered, "What's wrong with Honghong?"
Yu Huimin knew that her sister-in-law really loved her daughter, so she did not hide anything and told her the whole story.
Chen Sujuan frowned and said, "No, how can a country boy be worthy of our Honghong? Given our conditions, the worst we can do is to find a dual-income family."
"Your brother and I have tried to persuade her, but the girl is stubborn and has set her eyes on that boy. She says she won't marry anyone else but him." Yu Huimin sighed helplessly.
"But we can't just let her do everything."
Chen Sujuan glanced at her elder brother and sister-in-law and said, "I came here today just for Honghong's matter.
The eldest son of Director Shi of our street supply and marketing cooperative is 23 years old this year. He is very handsome and currently works in the personnel department of our factory.
It seems like he saw our Honghong a few days ago and fell in love with her at first sight. Yesterday, he asked someone to come to my place to talk to me, saying that he wanted to date our Honghong.
I went to the personnel department today to take a look. The young man is well-mannered and has a good family background. He is a perfect match for our Honghong."
