"Oh... Auntie is right."
"Xiaohan, do you have a partner?"
"Yes, Auntie."
"Hey, you look even younger than Momo, what do you think?"
"It's... it's okay. Our two families are well-matched, but my fiancé has one arm that's not very flexible."
Ying Han, your words made Mother Jiang's throat raise. She wanted to follow her saying that they were well-matched, but after hearing the last sentence, she didn't know how to start again. After a long while, she said, "Oh... Oh... Do your parents agree too?"
If my arms aren't very flexible, doesn't that mean I'm disabled?
"Yes, everyone agrees. At first, my mother, like my aunt, disagreed. Later, my fiancé was shameless and moved her heart little by little. I was in a car accident before and was almost disfigured. He was the one who stayed with me the whole time."
"Oh... that's quite good, but Momo can't find this guy. He has nothing he wants, and I heard he's even unemployed. How can a man with a poor family and no job make our Momo happy with just that little bit of love? I can't buy her nice clothes or let her live in a comfortable house. She's now been blinded by love. I've locked her up these past few days to let her sober up. I'm doing this for her own good, but she doesn't appreciate it. She's hiding in the house and refusing to eat for two days. Oh, she's made me so angry that my head hurts. She's so stubborn. Luckily you're here, so you can help me persuade her."
"Okay, I'll try my best, Auntie."
"Wait a minute, I'll go get some food. Please help me bring it in for her. People are made of iron and food is made of steel. If we continue like this, it's really not going to work."
When Ying Han saw Mother Jiang for the first time, he saw that she was a lady with lingering charm. When he got closer, he saw that she was also a down-to-earth mother with a caring heart.
So, I didn’t ask a nanny to cook for me, and I made a simple noodle soup myself.
Ying Han went upstairs and knocked on Jiang Mo's door.
"Stop knocking, I won't eat it."
Mother Jiang on the side shook her head at Ying Han and stood aside silently.
Ying Han nodded at her, then cleared his throat and said, "It's me, Xiao Jiang, I'm Ying Han."
After a moment, the door suddenly opened. Jiang Mo, with a messy mess on her head, saw Ying Han and said, her eyes were full of light. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Ying Han winking at her, and immediately understood. Her face fell in an instant, "What are you doing here?"
"The director asked me to come. You haven't been at work these few days, and the department can't operate properly." Ying Han said as he passed the bowl of noodles to her. "Sweet-smelling noodles, don't you want me to come in?"
Jiang Mo snorted lightly and said reluctantly, "Come in."
"Yeah, yeah." When Ying Han was about to leave, he signaled to Mother Jiang who was hiding nearby.
After entering, the two of them interacted excitedly.
Then they talked loudly about work for a few minutes. After hearing Mother Jiang's footsteps walking away, they patted their chests in relief.
Jiang Mo ignored Ying Han who was listening to her mother's footsteps at the door, and gobbled the bowl of noodles in one gulp.
Ying Han turned his head and looked at her. He had already eaten more than half of the bowl of hot noodles. He said admiringly, "You have been fighting for so many days. You are really serious."
"I'm also thinking about my future. During the Chinese New Year, I brought Xiao Shen with me, but my parents got angry and drove Xiao Shen away. They locked me up in the house and didn't let me go out for the whole year.
She had only been working for two days and had already met Xiao Shen twice when she discovered it.
He refused to agree no matter what, didn't let me go to class, and locked me up at home.
Of course I resisted, but I didn't really not eat. During the Chinese New Year, I hid a lot of snacks in the house.
If you hadn't come today, I could still hold on for two days."
"Maybe I shouldn't have come. I just heard your mother's attitude. If you don't eat, she will give in and soften her heart."
When Jiang Mo heard her words, he was suddenly stunned. He looked down at the soup in the bowl and said angrily, "Oh no, why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I wouldn't have eaten it."
"It's okay, it's okay. Eat. It won't affect anything. I'll find an excuse later. We can say that something happened at work and you have to go. I think Aunt Jiang is easy to talk to. I think she will agree."
"Hmph, she's only being nice to outsiders. Xiaohan, please give me some advice. What should I do?"
Ying Han was also embarrassed. "You and I are different. Deng Chen and I have parents who know each other, so we are a good match. The biggest obstacle between us was the arm. Now Deng Chen's arm is healed, and my parents have seen how good Deng Chen is to me, so there is nothing to object to. Of course, my dad is also a big contributor. My dad is very satisfied with Deng Chen and helps me blow pillow talk all day long. You are different. There is a big gap between you and Xiao Shen, and now your whole family is against it. No one can speak on your behalf."
"Not really. My sister thinks Xiao Shen is pretty good and she supports me."
"Oh, you have a sister."
Jiang Mo relaxed his shoulders and said, "My nephew is already three years old, but my sister rarely comes back, so she can't help me much."
"So this isn't going to be easy. Good things take time. You need a strategy and proceed step by step. You need to go along with your parents a little more and not go against them. That can easily backfire."
"The key is that they won't let me go out."
"Promise them that you won't see Xiao Shen again. They'll keep an eye on you for one day, two days, and they'll be caught one day. So, you should cover up when you meet Xiao Shen."
Jiang Mo listened to Ying Han's advice and jokingly said, "You and Team Leader Deng are not like this, are you?"
Ying Han glanced at her sideways, and after a moment, he said, "Not really. My mom discovered our first date, and that night she rushed to my little building and scolded Deng Chen."
"It's not like: You're a poor boy, what can you give my daughter? Do you know how my daughter grew up? Now she can't even wash clothes or cook. If she marries you, do you expect my daughter to wash clothes, cook for you and serve you? Don't even think about it."
Jiang Mo's tone is so much like Jiang's mother. I guess Xiao Shen was scolded a lot that day.
"That's pretty much it. That's what I mean."
"What was Team Leader Deng's reaction?"
"Him? I was worried at first that he might be upset, but he said he was mentally prepared."
Jiang Mo sighed, "Your team leader Deng was a soldier before, so he has good mental qualities. Xiao Shen couldn't stand it, and he must have cried when he got home. I even secretly went to see him the next day, and his eyes were red."
"Why, he can't stand it anymore and wants to give up?"
"No, he held my hand and said he would make a lot of money so I could live a good life. After we got married, he wouldn't let me do the laundry or cooking. Then, he resigned a week into the new year."
