"Xiaoguang is a handsome man, talented in both literature and martial arts, and his medical skills are so great. Lao Zheng and I like him very much."
Zhang Shuguang was the son-in-law Gao Dongmei fell in love with at first sight. Now that he had come to her house, Gao Dongmei certainly would not act pretentiously.
In the afternoon, her daughter came back and told Gao Dongmei about her conversation with Su Hong in a shy manner. Gao Dongmei knew that it was a sure thing, and Zhang Shuguang was her son-in-law.
"Sister-in-law, this is what I think. Since the two children are interested in each other, and we adults have no objection, let's settle the matter of the children."
Gao Dongmei's reaction was within Su Hong's expectations. After all, Gao Dongmei's love for Xiaoguang during this period was something that even a blind person could see.
"What's settled? Auntie, as far as I know, you guys haven't been here for a few days, right?
Marriage is not a joke, so both parties should get to know each other better.
My sister is only seventeen years old, it’s too early to say that now.”
Zheng Yuhui stood up from the chair as if his butt was scalded.
What is going on? How come my precious sister is already engaged?
He only has this one sister, and he doesn't want her to be abducted by a pretty boy.
"Sit down." Gao Dongmei glared at her son. Her sharp gaze was like a knife, making Zheng Yuhui's neck shrink.
"Sister Su Hong, my son has had a close relationship with you since childhood. He was a little emotional, so I'm sorry to have embarrassed you and Captain Zhang."
Gao Dongmei was afraid that Su Hong and Zhang Xiangnan would feel embarrassed, so she quickly tried to smooth things over with a smile.
"It's okay, Yuhui has a point."
Su Hong indicated that she was not angry.
"Sister-in-law, let alone a family like yours, even ordinary people who want to marry their daughters off would have to understand the man's character and family clearly."
Su Hong's approval made Zheng Yuhui feel much more comfortable. Regardless of what the pretty boy looked like, his mother was indeed a reasonable person.
"Yuhui, Xiaoguang and Shanshan are in love with each other. Xiaoguang once delivered meals to the hospital, and the two of them went to town together to eat and play today.
Since they are in love with each other, we, as their family, should support and send our blessings.
You've been on guard duty at the outpost all this time and haven't had any contact with Xiaoguang. You don't know his character well, so I completely understand your concerns."
Su Hong didn't feel uncomfortable at all despite Zheng Yuhui's questioning.
Even if your son has many good qualities, you will only know them after you have spent time with him.
Zheng Yuhui has never had any contact with his son, so it is normal for him to have concerns.
"Thank you for your understanding, aunt. After all, I only have this one sister. My father was a soldier before, and my mother raised us two in Rongcheng.
During the day she had to go to work to earn money to support us, and I stayed at home to take care of my younger sister. It is no exaggeration to say that I watched my younger sister grow up day by day.
I also know that my sister has grown up now and will get married one day.
I don't have any other requests, I just hope my sister can meet an excellent person, someone who likes each other, and someone who can love her like me and my father do.
Yesterday when I came back from my shift at the outpost, my mother suddenly told me that my sister had a boyfriend. For a while, it was a little hard for me to accept it.
I’m afraid that she won’t meet the right person, that she won’t have a good life in the future, and that she will be wronged in the future.
If my sister's boyfriend was an officer from southern Xinjiang, or a young military doctor in a military hospital, I might not be so worried.
After all, we are close to each other and we can see each other often. If my sister is not doing well, it is convenient for her to go back to her parents' home.
As far as I know, your son has no plans to join the army, and he hasn't quit his job there. He will most likely go back to work in the future.
Southern Xinjiang is more than a thousand miles away from Qi and Lu. What should I do with my sister?
If they stay in southern Xinjiang and continue working, they will inevitably be separated by thousands of miles. To be honest, I am also worried about following your son to Qilu Province."
Su Hong's approval calmed Zheng Yuhui down and he expressed his concerns.
"elder brother……"
Zheng Yuhui's words reminded Zheng Yushan of their childhood.
We played together, went to and from school together, and sat on the doorstep together waiting for mom to get off work.
Last night, Zheng Yuhui's reaction was a bit intense, and Zheng Yushan secretly complained in her heart.
After listening to what my brother said today, I realized that he was just worried about her future life.
Zheng Yushan's eyes were slightly red with a mixture of emotion and guilt in her heart.
"Sister, did I say something wrong again?"
Seeing that his sister was about to cry, Zheng Yuhui hurried to comfort her.
"No, you are right. Thank you for your love and care for me all the time."
Seeing her brother's helpless look, Zheng Yushan couldn't hold back her tears.
"Brother Zheng, I understand your concerns. I also have a younger sister, and I'm also a brother. When my younger sister reaches the age of dating, I might be even more anxious than you.
But I can promise that I will never let Yushan suffer any injustice in the future."
After all, this is a matter between him and Zheng Yushan. He should express his own attitude and cannot rely solely on his mother to take the lead.
"What if my sister is wronged?"
Zheng Yuhui looked into Zhang Shuguang's eyes and asked.
"I will never complain even if I am beaten or scolded."
Zhang Shuguang has a calm look and a sincere attitude.
"What if my sister doesn't get along with your family?"
"They can separate and live their own lives in the future. They can buy a house in the city or build a house in their hometown. We will do whatever Yushan asks us to do."
Su Hong quickly expressed her opinion.
"What if Yushan gets homesick?"
Zheng Yuhui cares deeply about his sister's affairs and considers every detail.
"I can accompany Yushan back for the three festivals and two birthdays. As long as Yushan says she misses home, no matter how busy I am, I can put everything aside and accompany Yushan back to visit her parents."
Transportation will become more and more convenient in the future. The airport in southern Xinjiang is under construction and is expected to be put into use within two years. It will not be difficult to come back.
"A gentleman's word is his bond."
"It's hard to catch up with a horse that has only four horses."
The palms of the two young men collided heavily.
Gao Dongmei and Zheng Zheng looked at each other and put aside their last bit of worry.
Having their son at home also has its advantages. There are some things that the couple are too embarrassed to ask, but their son has answered all their concerns clearly, and the Zhang family has also given satisfactory guarantees.
"Captain Zheng, Sister Dongmei, do you have any requests? As long as we can do it, we will definitely do it."
Su Hong strikes while the iron is hot.
"Sister Su Hong, we don't have any other requests. As long as the two children are well in the future, we as parents will be relieved."
The Zheng family was very satisfied with Zhang Shuguang. The only drawback was that Zhang Shuguang did not want to join the army, so it would be inconvenient for him to see his daughter in the future.
Since Zhang Shuguang promised that he would come back to visit during the three festivals and two birthdays, the couple felt relieved.
As for the bride price, it was not even within the consideration of the two.
Zheng Zheng has been the head of a regiment for several years, and his son also receives an allowance for his military service. The Zheng family is not short of money, so they do not require any betrothal gifts. In order to ensure that their daughter can live comfortably in her husband's family in the future, the couple has already prepared a generous dowry for her.
