The next day, Zhang Weifang called Xiao Hu and told her that she wanted to introduce a girl to her grandson.
Who would have thought that the world is so small and the most suitable person for Lu Tingting is Xiao Hu's grandson Jia Yi.
After Zhang Weifang retired, he often contacted Xiao Hu. The two had been together for a lifetime and knew each other very well.
Xiao Hu has three daughters and no sons, so her second daughter did not get married. Instead, she found a son-in-law who lived with the family. The child born by her second daughter was Jia Yi.
Xiao Hu is a smart and capable person. Her husband, Jia Laosi, is cunning and a bit sinister. He has made a lot of money by reselling goods throughout his life.
Their second daughter was also smart. She thought that marrying a son-in-law could inherit her family's property, so she did not get married.
Unfortunately, the man she found was an honest man who could only do hard labor and was not liked by her parents, so she placed her hopes on her child.
Jia Yi is the only grandson of the Jia family, so he has always been favored. However, under the influence of his shrewd and strong grandmother and mother, his character is weak. However, he still has a bit of the Jia family's scheming nature in his bones.
Jia Yi is two years older than Lu Tingting. He works in a steel plant in the provincial capital. Most of the workers in the plant are men, so he has never met a suitable partner.
As soon as Zhang Weifang called Xiao Hu, Xiao Hu became excited:
"Weifang, who is the girl you are introducing to my grandson? You must introduce a good one."
"Of course, she's my granddaughter. How about we become relatives?"
Xiao Hu was delighted when he heard this, and his voice became twice as loud as before:
"That's great. We're friends, how can I not trust you?"
Two days later, Jia Yi and Lu Tingting were arranged by the two old ladies to meet. They went to a teahouse and chatted while drinking tea.
After more than half an hour of getting to know each other, the two had a very good impression of each other. Jia Yi liked the independent and individual Lu Tingting very much. When he returned home, he asked his grandmother to propose marriage as soon as possible.
Lu Tingting also had a good impression of Jia Yi. He was good-looking, 183cm tall, had a good job, and was a regular employee. His family had a house and a car, so she wouldn't have to worry about these things if she married him.
But at the same time, Lu Tingting felt that she was sorry for the boy she had met before. They had already reached the stage of discussing marriage, and if she changed her mind now, it would be hurtful to him, so she kept hesitating.
Zhang Weifang knew what she was thinking when she saw her like this:
"Tingting, marriage is not a joke. If you feel sorry for him, you can compensate him in other ways, but you can't use your happiness as compensation."
Lu Shi pointed out the problem directly:
"Actually, your feelings for him aren't that deep, otherwise, you wouldn't have agreed to go on a blind date. Deep down, you know he's not suitable, but you just can't accept it emotionally."
Lu Tingting was not the type to hesitate. Once she had made up her mind, she would not back down. She found her ex-boyfriend, broke up with him directly, and returned all the gifts he had given her.
The boy was also a very good person. He did not insist but chose to bless her. He also knew in his heart that he was not worthy of the girl in front of him. She was so dazzling and shining, and she could not follow him into the quagmire.
There was nothing to do during the virus, so everyone urged Jia Yi and Lu Tingting to get married quickly. The two of them got their marriage certificate directly and saved themselves the trouble of planning a wedding.
Only one month later, Lu Tingting got married. After the wedding, the couple went to the provincial capital together. The house was bought by the Jia family a long time ago. An An and Zhang Hailian gave a dowry of 100,000 yuan, which was all the savings of the two.
Lu Tingting didn't want it at first, but when she saw her parents' red eyes, she finally accepted it.
More than a month after getting married, Lu Tingting found out that she was pregnant. This news made the Jia family overjoyed. They only had one child, so they attached great importance to having children.
At this time, Li Rui's wife was also pregnant with her second child. Hu Zi and Wang Hui both hoped that they could have a son. After all, they already had a daughter, and having both a son and a daughter would be the best.
Ten months later, Lu Tingting gave birth to a son. The Jia family was very satisfied, and Xiao Hu was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
Li Rui's family had another daughter, adding a new member to the family. Hu Zi was happy, but he still felt a little lost because he didn't have a grandson.
In Hu Zi's eyes, for many things, men are still needed at critical moments. Of course, he doesn't think there is anything wrong with girls, but he still feels a little regretful.
Li Rui's wife decided not to have another child after giving birth to her second child, and Li Rui supported her decision.
Hu Zi and his wife didn't say anything, but Hu Zi still boasted to Li Rui:
"Anyway, I have a son. It's none of my business whether you have one or not."
Zhang Weifang didn't care. It was in the next life anyway and it didn't affect her much. However, she felt very sorry that she didn't have a daughter in this life.
Zhang Weifang occasionally thought that if one day she was lying in bed unable to move, it would be inconvenient for her son to take care of her, and she dared not count on her daughter-in-law even more.
Therefore, she always paid special attention to Lu Shi's health, hoping that he could walk behind her. Otherwise, if that situation really happened, she would really suffer.
Zhang Weishuang now understands most clearly the regret of not having a daughter. Last time, she accidentally defecated in her pants, and her legs were not convenient, so she could only throw the pants she had changed into the yard.
I happened to run into Ping Xiao who was visiting his parents. He looked at the dirty clothes and pants and his face immediately darkened:
"Mom, please wash the dirty clothes quickly. How can you just throw them in the yard?"
Ping Xiao looked at the worm-infested millet again and got angry at the old couple:
"Mom and Dad, it's not easy for me to grow some millet. Why can't you just put it in a plastic jug? How can I eat it now? It's all wasted."
Zhang Weishuang felt both sad and aggrieved. She had worked diligently all her life and was not a lazy person. It was just that her legs and feet were not flexible now, so she could not do many things. She did not expect that she would be disliked by her sons when she was old.
She also knew that her son felt sorry for Xiaomi, but she still felt wronged. She was old and useless, and in the end she had to depend on her children's moods.
It is said that there are no filial sons by the bedside of a long-term patient. Now it is not even their turn to take care of him, but he is already so impatient. How can he expect to get better in the future?
If they had a daughter, she could at least help them wash up, sweep the floor and wash the dishes, which would be much better than now.
After Zhang Weishuang fell ill, she often couldn't control her crying and would cry whenever she saw someone she knew. The neighbors were afraid of her crying and didn't dare to go to her house. Every day, only her deaf and blind husband was with her.
