Chapter 424 424 The Son-in-Law From a Distance
Chapter 424 424. The distant son-in-law
This statement originally made sense, and even carried a concept of "delaying yourself for two years for your brother" that was particularly in line with the tone of the elderly's preference for boys over girls...
Song Tan gave himself a thumbs up.
But who knew that grandma would not take the ordinary path!
"You kid! What are you talking about? Did your parents teach you this way? Did I teach this Wulan this way?"
Grandma looked solemn and said earnestly:
"Tan Tan, you can't think like this. Qiao Qiao is Qiao Qiao, and you are you. When Qiao Qiao is in trouble, you help him. If no one takes care of him, you help him and don't let him starve... This is the relationship between you brothers, and it is your responsibility as a sister."
"But you can't delay yourself for Qiao Qiao! You have to have your own eyes first, so that you can live a good life!"
Girls' youth is so precious!
Grandma said with extra force: "Besides, what's the difference between good conditions and a good match... When you look at a person, you can't just look at the conditions, you have to look at his character! As long as the people are united, it doesn't matter if the family is poor."
"Even if you have a million or eight hundred thousand in your hand, if you find someone who has no house or car in the city, won't they look down on you and think you are a farmer?"
"So, money is secondary. As long as you are upright and take care of yourself, those are all external things, and you can always live a good life!"
Song Tan was shocked.
Just...her grandma's philosophy makes sense, but she really understands too little and too one-sidedly.
It's just...it would be better if she didn't urge me to get married.
She could only use the powerless method of procrastination: "No hurry, no hurry, wait two years, wait two years..."
Grandma didn't rush to urge:
"It's okay, let's not rush. I'll stay in the village for a while and see who has a good young man. I'll ask around and keep him for you first..."
Song Tan:...
She thought to herself, I've grown a talent show while farming? And I'm keeping him for myself? How can I keep him?
How is her grandma more difficult to communicate with than her grandmother? It's obvious that she has a lot of ideas, and the stubbornness of the old Wu family is the same!
Moreover, she was really afraid that her grandma would go there and ask around in a serious manner-
Song Tan is not bragging, her current conditions are indeed excellent in the surrounding area. The mother-in-law wants a daughter-in-law who can make money, and the man wants a beautiful girlfriend...this is all human nature.
If grandma leaks the news, and then the other party really goes to the field to harvest rice, even if she doesn't agree, won't she have to pay for a meal and family favors?
It's all troublesome!
At this moment, I could only pretend to sigh:
"Grandma, you don't know, there is actually a very good person pursuing me. A while ago, he came all the way to send me a bouquet of flowers... But he is a little far away, and he has not made up his mind to settle down with me in our hometown."
"I didn't agree."
"This is not... Let's wait and see, don't ask around. If it gets out, people will think I'm two-timing and looking for a backup!"
Grandma frowned:
"You didn't agree, and it doesn't sound like a love relationship, so why can't I find a backup?"
She pondered and said something very insightful: "I don't think yours will work. No matter how people talk about gender equality now, the man has been educated like that since he was a child, just like your grandpa, who loves face."
The grandpa who didn't dare to say a word in the back seat widened his eyes:... What did I do?
I only heard the grandmother analyze again: "A grown man, without his own career, comes to the woman's family to work or do something, unless the woman's assets are so large that the villagers dare not believe it, otherwise people will still say behind his back that he is a live-in son-in-law."
"You said that a live-in son-in-law, put in a group of men, is thin-skinned, and can't stand people talking about him. Even if he is open-minded, after a long time, even the best relationship is prone to problems... It's not safe."
Song Tan: ... Mistake.
Her grandmother took it seriously, and it actually made sense.
So she had to act more entangled:
"Grandma, what you said makes sense... But that man is very good-looking, and he is a good match for me."
Grandma straightened her back instantly and became energetic: "What does he look like? Do you have a photo? Show me!"
Song Tan: ... I don't even know who this person is, how can I show you?
It was difficult to get off the tiger, so she could only smile dryly: "No, this matter has not been settled yet. I will show it to grandma when I am sure."
At the same time, she breathed a long sigh of relief, thinking that she would have to tell her family about this matter as soon as she got home.
If it really doesn't work... I can only sacrifice Brother Yan Ping first!
He is old and has no partner, so he is a good candidate!
If it doesn't work, there is still Xin Jun and Wu Lei...
Thinking of this, Song Tan felt stable again.
...
At the same time, Lu Chuan, the "son-in-law" who refused to go back to his hometown with Song Tan, was lying on the mat at this moment, struggling to maintain his plank.
There was a striking alarm clock in front of him, and beads of sweat fell from his forehead and chin one by one, and he looked at the 49 minutes and 32 seconds on it and kept jumping forward, and the shock in his heart became greater and greater--
something is not right.
Anyone who has ever exercised knows that core strength is not achieved overnight, but accumulated bit by bit over time.
Before the accident, he could only hold the plank for a dozen minutes at most.
But after the accident, even...
Lu Chuan's eyes could not help but move to his bare arms.
It was not an illusion. The marks on his body were really fading. Even now and then, large pieces of dead skin would fall off the scars.
It was as if the whole body was repairing rapidly...
He was a storyteller. At this moment, he could not help but imagine some adventures after a car accident.
But in the end, Lu Chuan just laughed for a moment - it was okay to make up a story, but he couldn't mess up his brain.
Thinking of this, the air in his chest was released, and then the whole person could no longer hold on, and stopped the plank support at 52 minutes.
After doing a few stretching exercises casually, today's exercise was over.
...
After a simple wash, Lu Chuan pushed the door and came to the terrace.
The terrace, which was about to usher in July, was particularly hot, and the awning was pulled up early. The rich fragrance of flowers was blown by the wind, gently echoing between breaths, not only did it not make people dizzy, but it made people feel more comfortable.
Because the weather was too hot, many roses had grown out of standard, and the petals were scattered.
He walked to the pink Longsha rose nearby and carefully observed the leaves -
Nothing.
Nothing.
The red spider mites, powdery mildew, and even black spots that were the most troublesome in previous years are now nowhere to be seen.
And this year, he didn't even have time to spray pesticides. The only thing he used was the golden tobacco leaves soaked in the bucket in the corner.
Thinking about the smell of tea and honey at home, Lu Chuan couldn't help but have some very unscientific fantasies in his heart again...
There are more to come.
