But it's not without benefits. Cui Shunrong is not an easy person to get along with. People like Dai Yuping can protect Yingying from being bullied, or even keep Cui Shunrong away.
Yingying is not suitable to be in charge. She only needs to be a good wife in the inner house. She has no shortage of money or status. Even if this person can go one step further and become a small official below the high school, Yingying can be said to have reaped the rewards of her hard work.
Dai Chunhua rubbed his forehead, then took out the jade pendant his son had given him yesterday and looked at his friend, wanting to see what this person was planning to do.
"We're not unreasonable people. After you turn forty, if Yingying hasn't given birth to a child, you can take a concubine to continue your family line. But if my daughter has been wronged because of you, I hope you can divorce her directly and let her return home. Don't make things difficult for the child. She's suffered a lot of injustice in her life because of her biological mother, and she might be obsessed with it. If you have any questions, you can come directly to me, your father."
No matter how good his intentions are, Liu Ying was raised by him after all, so he still has a lot of feelings for her. Some things should be said in advance. He doesn't have any idea of male superiority and female inferiority, and male superiority and female inferiority are not what we understand now, that men are noble and women must be humble.
Everyone has their own opinion. In his mind, this sentence means that men should not be too humble and should have some dignity, and women should not be too noble and should be more humble. You can't suppress men's backbone.
When Dai Yuping heard that there was a chance, he thought, who could refuse his wife who was a good family man, and also had a learned father-in-law who was the kind who could teach him carefully? He would never dare to think of such a thing in his dreams.
"Don't worry, sir. I'm not a playboy. Even at my age, I don't even have a concubine. I'm not one who likes that kind of thing. So I can guarantee that as long as Miss Liu is like we just met today, I will always protect her innocence and will never let her fall into that kind of situation.
Taking a concubine is even more absurd. What I envy most is a lifelong partner. If possible, I don't like having a third person in between."
After Mr. Liu figured it out and heard his words, he took out the jade lock piece. When he looked up and saw the jade pendant in Dai Chunhua's hand, the two smiled at each other and exchanged tokens.
As for Dai Yuping, no one paid any attention to him. However, after he saw the two families exchanging tokens, he stood up from the ground swiftly, and then stood obediently behind Mr. Liu, occasionally saying a few words. Dai Chunhua couldn't bear to look at this kid. It was really a bit of an eyesore.
When Liu Ying returned home in the evening, Mr. Liu told her about the engagement and that the Dai family would hold a winter banquet in three days. He asked her to pack up and go there directly. At the banquet, he would create an opportunity for her to say a few words to Dai Yuping.
"Dai Yuping will show up in three days. I'll have someone take you to see him then. But Yingying, tell Dad the truth. Are you willing to be ordinary?"
He has always been in a state of hesitation regarding his daughter, and the child also has her own ideas. He is also worried that the child will be rebellious. Engagement is a matter of a lifetime, and one person cannot pretend for so long.
If Liu Ying had any rebellious mentality, the boy from the Dai family was probably not herself. If she really fell into his hands, even death would be a luxury for her. He might also give her a quick death for the sake of the elders. This was not what he, as a father, wanted to see.
Liu Ying was stunned for a moment, then she smiled. These days were the happiest days for her. After all, there was no mother around her to nag her about what she should or should not do, or to suppress her by saying she could do nothing. When she was learning in the shop, the shopkeeper was also very good. He did not care about her stupidity at all, and was even willing to teach her from the beginning. This made her feel Sister Wang's care again, and she no longer thought of her mother.
The second son of the Dai family, although he will not inherit the family business, he will not be kicked out of the house directly. He also has some property, but he is not that rich. However, he lives better than ordinary people. It is different from the past. Even if his mother gave him money, his DNA is that he has to ask his mother before spending money even if he wants to buy a thread. Otherwise, he will suddenly be scolded and told that he is not good at managing the family. The inexplicable suppression made him more and more inferior.
"Dad, I'm not unwilling to give up. Even if the shop you gave me doesn't make money, or if neither of us has any talent for business, I'm willing to sell it. That way, the monthly rent will be enough for us to live on, and we can even live better than under Mom's management.
How could there be any reluctance? My daughter even feels that such a life is a luxury she can only dream of."
Ever since Liu Ying saw through the Shao family, she has become very clear-headed. She would not even ask her mother to match her up with someone randomly. She would think that a man who is favored by her father, even if he is not the best of the best, is someone who is ambitious and cannot be a hopeless man who has to rely on his wife.
So she understood her father's painstaking efforts, and even more so, she understood that her mother might not really care about her. People grow up, and as long as they are desperate enough, they won't dwell on such things.
Mr. Liu looked at his daughter's increasingly quiet temperament, and seemed to have found the same feeling as when Liu Ying was just born. This child can be said to have let go.
"I've already made it clear to the Dai family. After Dai Yuping turns 40, if he doesn't have any children, he will take a concubine, but it will never affect your status.
My marriage with your mother was a joke in itself, so I have taken you to see how ordinary couples get along. The way your sister Wang and Zichuan get along is how a couple should support each other. A man will not bring the complexity of the outside world home even if he is tired after a day outside.
Your sister Wang would not bother Zichuan with the troubles at home, but they would talk to each other about some things. They would even have countless conversations when they were together, even if it was just a simple statement like "the tea is delicious" or "the snacks are tasty."
Their knowledge is not on the same level. Your sister Wang's knowledge is actually quite average, but her way of dealing with people is something you don't have. She is very rare, but everyone around her will feel her presence and will not ignore her. This is her ability.
Zichuan does business outside and basically meets all kinds of people, so he has a very accurate grasp of people's hearts, but he still likes you, Sister Wang, because there has never been any interest or other things mixed between them.
