It's no wonder that he had caused so much trouble for his family in the early years.
Lin Zhan looked back at Lin Wenhui and signaled with his eyes that Lin Wenhui should not come out.
Then he turned and raised his chin towards Zhang Guifang, signaling Zhang Guifang to speak quickly.
Zhang Guifang nodded repeatedly, not daring to delay for a moment: "It's like this, didn't I meet your grandma? The old lady is in good health. She told me that your father's stepson got married a while ago."
"Your father and stepmother paid a lot for the betrothal gifts alone. When they were welcoming the bride, the first thing they saw were cars. It was such a grand ceremony..."
Lin Zhan was speechless. He finally understood what his mother meant - it was difficult to eat after dealing with Zhang Guifang.
This old lady really doesn't know how to talk. She brings up things that are not related to the topic.
Seeing that Lin Zhan was a little impatient, Zhang Guifang awkwardly got to the point: "This is just some idle chatter, and after talking about all this, you end up talking about your sister."
"Your grandma said your dad is busy looking for a husband for your sister. She said your sister is old and it's a good time for her to get married. She also said that the children in the family are all going to get married one after another..."
Lin Zhan thought he had misheard: "What?"
What is the right time to get married?
His sister is only 17 this year. Is his father crazy to start looking for someone for his sister at this time?
Zhang Guifang was helpless: "To be honest, your Aunt Zhang had the same reaction as you at the time. I thought I had misheard and thought it was your stepmother's daughter who was looking for a husband to marry, or that your grandmother was old and confused and couldn't remember how old your sister was."
"So I asked her twice, back and forth, asking if Wenhui wanted to meet someone?"
"I was saying that Wenhui is only seventeen, there's no need to rush to get married. Children her age are still studying and preparing for college entrance exams. It's not like our family can't afford to support her."
Since the resumption of the college entrance examination, which family with children does not hope that their children can bring honor to the family through studying?
That's a life-changing event.
So when Zhang Guifang heard Lin Zhan's grandmother say that they wanted Wenhui to stop studying and get married soon, even someone as conservative as Zhang Guifang thought that Lin Zhan's father was crazy.
Zhang Guifang: "Alas, if you have a stepmother, you must have a stepfather. Your father...tsk, I don't know how to describe it, anyway, he is quite heartless."
"I know how good Wenhui's academic performance is, but marrying off a promising college student is not clear to me. I don't know if this idea was your father's own or your stepmother's."
After saying that, Zhang Guifang stole a glance at Lin Zhan, but after just one glance, she was so scared that she quickly looked away.
She said stubbornly, "Aunt Zhang didn't lie to you, did she? Is this an important matter?"
"If you had known this earlier, you would have been more prepared. Otherwise, if you had let your father mess around, it would have ruined Wenhui's life."
She took the empty bowl, took a cautious step back, and asked tentatively: "Well... since I have informed you of everything, Aunt Zhang will go home now. Your two nephews haven't eaten yet. If I go back late, they will cry again later."
Lin Zhan glanced at her coldly, and considering that the information she provided was indeed important, he gave her a definite answer to reassure her.
"Aunt Zhang, don't worry. I know the Ye family's affairs have nothing to do with you. I won't be able to find you when I come to settle accounts."
This sentence was like a reassurance. Zhang Guifang's legs and feet were weak just now, but after hearing this reassurance, even her steps back became much more agile.
After closing the door, the first thing Lin Zhan saw was his mother standing there with red eyes.
Sighing, Lin Zhan looked at Lin Wenhui, who lowered her head, and lowered her voice: "Wenhui, judging by your reaction, you should know about this. What did they tell you?"
Lin Wenhui lowered her head, bit her lips and said nothing.
Li Yanhong was heartbroken: "Wenhui, if you have any grievances, tell me. Things are not like before. Before, I didn't have the ability to snatch you back from those black-hearted people, but now it's different."
In her desperation, she even brought up what her second son did for a living: "Wenhui, think about your second brother. He has over a hundred people under him."
"Even a spit from each person can drown those black-hearted people. So, let your second brother take people and transfer your household registration to Mom's side. I want to see if they dare not release you!"
Lin Wenhui quickly looked up at her brother, then at Su Lixuan.
Su Lixuan found her funny as she acted like a little rabbit: "Wenhui, why are you looking at your sister-in-law like that?"
There was no trace of estrangement in his tone, it was full of intimacy, and there was no trace of disgust on his face.
Lin Wenhui looked at her second sister-in-law, who was so beautiful that she seemed unreal, and asked cautiously, "I...I don't really want to get married, but if I don't get married, I'll have nowhere to go."
Her eyes were slightly red: "If I come back...will you dislike me..." Having said this, she didn't know how to continue.
At this time, when she asked her second sister-in-law this question, even if she didn't do it on purpose, it was clearly putting her second sister-in-law on the stage.
Just like her stepmother said, she has a big mouth but can't say a single nice word.
Feeling regretful, Lin Wenhui closed her mouth and looked at Su Lixuan with some guilt.
Su Lixuan shook her head and laughed when she saw this: "Why would I dislike you?"
"This is your home. If I'm going to say I dislike you, my sister-in-law, I'm probably worried that you, the new bride, will dislike me. How could I dislike my sister-in-law the moment I walk into the house?"
Isn't this funny? She must be very cunning to do such a thing.
Even though she was Lin Zhan's wife, to Lin Zhan and Li Yanhong, she was someone they had only been together for one day.
I can’t say she’s an outsider, but the affection she has for me is definitely not as great as that for Lin Wenhui, my biological sister and daughter.
