Chapter 2583 You Are Just a Slow-Selling Product
"Mom, do you also want Xiaojie to be as tall as his father? Times are different now. Boys who are too short have trouble finding a job." Xiaojie's mother persuaded her earnestly.
There were many reasons why she fell in love with her husband in the first place. Love was only a small part of it. After completing her PhD, the range of men she could choose from became smaller and smaller.
She doesn't like men with too low abilities, so she chooses the taller one among the short ones and chooses Xiaojie's father, who is not very good-looking. Relatively speaking, Xiaojie's father's academic qualifications satisfy her very much, but she misses out on her original family.
If she had known that her future parents-in-law would be in this situation, she would definitely not agree to the marriage, and she might as well live a happy single life.
Unfortunately, the hardest thing in the world is to know in advance.
Grandma Xiaojie's face turned even darker, "You dislike my son now? When you couldn't get married, only my son was willing to marry you. Now you want to burn bridges? Do you think you can marry well without my son?" ? Damn it, my son will still marry a young girl after getting divorced, you can’t even marry an eighty-year-old man!”
Xiaojie's mother was angry and embarrassed. She was not good at quarreling. She had lived in a gentle and polite environment since she was a child. Her parents and relatives were all teachers. It was considered a scholarly family, and her brothers and sisters were also teachers.
The colleagues in the company are all reasonable people and talk in a friendly manner. I have never seen such a troublesome person as the old lady. Xiaojie's mother was so angry that her face turned blue and she couldn't help shaking.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, the others left and did not want to meddle in other people's business, but some elderly people stayed to persuade her. However, the old lady became more and more enthusiastic in persuading her, foaming at the mouth, and kept accusing her daughter-in-law of crimes.
She couldn't hold it back any longer.
"She couldn't get married at her old age. If my son hadn't been kind enough to marry her, she would have been an old lady. Now she dislikes my son for being short?"
"You work a little bit, but you don't do any work at home, you don't help the soy sauce bottle when it falls over, and you go to work when your child is less than three months old, and you still don't give your child food. Is this a mother?" Her heart is even crueler than that of her stepmother!
I feel sorry for you if you don’t feel sorry for your child. I worked so hard to raise my little girl. She hasn’t even washed a diaper. Now she comes to accuse me of raising her grandson to death. You guys can judge me. Am I wronged? ! "
Xiaojie's mother was so angry that her eyes were red. She didn't expect that in this old lady's heart, she was an old maid who couldn't get married. No wonder these old couples had no nose for her and no eyes for her. They dared to love her in this old age. The two of them thought it was just a slow-moving product!
"Since you said that, I have to make it clear. I am a postdoctoral fellow at Cambridge University. The reason why I have not married is not because no one wants me. It is because I want to concentrate on my studies, so I do not consider marriage. I have been pursuing my lover. No one has ever stopped.”
As soon as Xiaojie's mother said these words, everyone's expressions changed, and the way they looked at her also changed, and they didn't dare to look down upon her.
"Your son has a doctorate from an ordinary university in country M. His appearance is just average, and his family is not that good. If I marry him, it will be regarded as a second marriage. Even now, my income is higher than your son. So, why do you think so?" Say these words?”
Xiaojie's mother sneered and said: "I will give you five thousand living expenses every month. This money is enough for me to find a dedicated nanny who will take good care of Xiaojie for me, and there is no need for me to help the soy sauce." Ping, if you find it difficult, please go back to your hometown with your father. I don’t dare to trouble you!”
