I am still in shock from the news brought by Ji Jianhua.
Xu Fang was washing dishes absentmindedly. Ji Ke came out of the room with an excited smile on his face. "Mom, my eldest brother is discussing with my dad about going to the Wang family to propose marriage. He said he will go tomorrow. My eldest brother said he has already found a matchmaker."
Xu Fang put down the bowl, wiped her hands on the apron in front of her, walked around her daughter and hurried into the house.
"Who did the matchmaker find? Have you told the Wang family? If you just show up like this, the Wang family will definitely take advantage of you, right?"
"I discussed this with Sanmei, and she didn't agree with me going. She just said that she would come back after the New Year to get married directly, and that we didn't need their consent at home. But after thinking about it, I still have to inform the Wang family. As for their opinions, it's useless even if they object."
"Why do they look down on ours? We don't look down on them, that's good enough." Xu Fang sat down. "You're right to think so. We can't let anyone find fault with us. Just do what you want. It doesn't matter what the Wang family thinks. As long as Sanmei agrees, no one can stop us."
"That's right. When Wang Sanmei left home, their family could be said to have no such daughter." Ji Ke nodded vigorously.
"Okay, what's the point of talking about this now?" Ji Yong stopped talking about this topic and asked his son, "Who did you invite as the matchmaker? What did you prepare?"
"Dad, I was just about to tell you this. I want you to go to Manager Liu's house with me tomorrow and ask Aunt Li Mei to help act as a matchmaker."
After listening to this, Ji Yong did not express his opinion immediately, nor did he nod immediately.
Xu Fang was a little worried. "The Liu family is not getting along with the Wang family now. Everyone in the agricultural machinery family compound knows about it. I'm afraid Li Mei won't agree."
She said these words to her husband.
Ji Yong figured something out and smiled, "I think Jianhua's idea is good."
Then he said to his son, "Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow."
Xu Fang couldn't figure it out.
Because of Wang Ermei’s incident, a call was made to the Liu family, and then the whole compound knew that Wang Ermei was caught for living in a guesthouse with a man. The Wang family hated the Liu family so much that their teeth were itching, but there was no other way.
If Li Mei were to go now, wouldn't the Wang family make it difficult for her?
"If Li Mei doesn't go, the Wang family won't give in so easily. But it will be different if Li Mei goes. If the Wang family doesn't give in, it will only make Li Mei proud. Even if they want to go against Li Mei, they will definitely agree." Ji Yong analyzed to his wife.
Xu Fang was stunned for a moment, "That's true."
After his wife and daughter were no longer present, Ji Yong looked at his son and said, "I just helped you lie to your mother. Now you should tell me why you did that, right?"
"Sanmei has not contacted her family. If that's the case, I don't want to have this relative. Aunt Li Mei's temper will definitely lift me up and Sanmei up, and then bring up Wang Ermei's matter. The Wang family will definitely not agree. If they don't agree to wait until the wedding, there's no need to invite them over, and naturally there's no need to visit after the wedding."
Ji Yong asked, "Have you asked Sanmei before doing this?"
"No need to ask, I know what she's thinking. Dad, don't worry about this, I know my limits."
"That's good."
As for why his son suddenly started dating Wang Sanmei, Ji Yong didn't ask, but he had some guesses.
Half a year ago, my son proposed to marry Luo Li, but Luo Li disagreed and even tricked the Luo family.
My son has always been strong, how could he suffer such humiliation?
"Dad, I know."
Although the Ji family did not show it, they clearly preferred Wang Sanmei over Luo Li.
This is all thanks to what Luo Li did before.
Ji Ke told Xu Fang about Luo Li's attempt to marry a rich man. Xu Fang's impression of Luo Li plummeted. She originally thought that they had broken up, but Luo Li came back again. Her son was not doing well, so there was no point in Xu Fang being anxious.
She was urging her son to get married, but she still felt regretful. Now that she heard that her daughter-in-law was not Luo Li, Xu Fang finally felt relieved.
"Mom, could it be that my eldest brother married Wang Sanmei just because he was angry?"
"Your elder brother is not such an unstable person. Don't make such a hasty guess. You must not let Sanmei hear this. Have you remembered?"
"Remember." Ji Ke laughed, "My sister doesn't know yet, right? I'll go call her."
"How could she not know? Don't worry about it."
After hearing this, Ji Ke walked back.
Back in the capital, Ji Ling had no idea about this. The family had to prepare things for the New Year, but there were so many people coming to give gifts that almost no one wanted to buy.
Nowadays, there are many baby products among the gifts given, including food and daily necessities, which shows how much care is put into it.
Back in their hometown, Ji Yong's family took Li Mei to Wang's house.
Wang Guiqiang and his wife are both at home. Three of their four daughters are married, and now only Zhaodi is still in junior high school.
But it’s winter vacation.
Seeing so many people coming, Wang Guiqiang was a little confused, "Ji Yong, what happened?"
Li Mei smiled and said, "It's a good thing, it's a good thing. Your family is going to become relatives with the Ji family, and I'm here to act as a matchmaker. Sanmei is lucky, and Jianhua is also an excellent child. The two of them are attracted to each other, so I'm here to act as a matchmaker today."
"Isn't Sanmei already married?" Lian Qin immediately realized that something was wrong and stopped talking. "Sanmei and Jianhua? What's going on? Isn't Jianhua dating someone who owns a factory?"
"Oh, who says dating has to work? What's the point of dating then? Dating means observing the other person from many aspects. If it doesn't work out, break up and try dating someone else. Your Sanmei is outstanding. She got into college outside and is now living in the capital. She has made a living on her own. What a promising child. I thought Ermei was more outstanding before, but when you compare these two sisters, Sanmei is the latecomer who has surpassed them."
Wang Family: Li Mei naturally couldn't bear to see the Wang family doing well, and didn't want to facilitate this marriage. "If you want to talk about this person, he has to take the right path. Fortunately, the man that Ermei brought back last time is her current husband, otherwise he would have been drowned in spit."
Wang family members: Ji family members: "This matter is a bit confusing. Let us think about it first, and you guys can go back too." Wang Guiqiang drove them away with a cold face.
Li Mei smiled and said, "Oh, such a good marriage, what else is there to consider? If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again."
"No need to say more. Jianhua is good, but our Sanmei is not worthy of him. Besides, we have found a marriage for her. Her family is in the capital. You all should go back." Lian Qin also drove people away.
Originally, she had discussed with Ermei that if Sanmei's side didn't work out, she would arrange the marriage first at home and then tell Sanmei's side. But now, forced by the current situation, Lian Qin didn't care about so much anymore and told the matter first, thinking that after sending the man away, she would immediately call Ermei to deliver the letter to the man and quickly arrange the marriage.
