Chapter 488 The Zheng Family’s Purpose
The Spring Festival in 1980 was the first Spring Festival after Li Wan and Su Qing returned to the Li family. It was also the first Spring Festival for the Li family to truly reunite.
In addition, Li Wan and Gu Xinsheng's wedding date was set for the eighth day of the first lunar month, so the Li family was even more lively this year. Many people came to pay New Year's greetings. Su Qing felt that her face was about to freeze from smiling.
There was no choice. Su Qing and Li Huan were admitted to Peking University, which made many people in the compound envious. It happened to be the Spring Festival, and many old friends and sisters of Mr. and Mrs. Li brought their grandchildren to visit them, as if to let their children and grandchildren get a taste of their scholarly atmosphere and be able to get into a good university the following year.
Therefore, Su Qing and Li Wan could only stay with the old couple and entertain the guests.
What the Li family didn't expect was that the Zheng family also came to pay New Year's greetings.
Mr. Li and Mrs. Li had no objection to their former in-laws, the Zheng family. Mr. Zheng was a straightforward person, not one who would play tricks. Mr. Zheng's two sons, Zheng Jianguo and Zheng Jianjun, were both upright. Otherwise, Mr. Li and Mrs. Li would not have married Li Yuan to the Zheng family. They were attracted by the upright family tradition of the Zheng family.
But who knew that it was Li Yuan who was not upright. Not only did she rob their biological daughter of her life, but she also secretly hurt Li Wan and Su Qing.
After the incident with Li Yuan, the Zheng family's actions did not disappoint the Li family. However, there were Li Yuan's two sons between them, so the relationship between the two families naturally became distant. They had hardly had any contact in the past six months. Unexpectedly, on the first day of the Lunar New Year this year, Old Mrs. Zheng actually brought her eldest daughter-in-law, Lu Wenya, to visit.
Since anyone who comes to your house is a guest, Mr. Li and Mrs. Li treated them as ordinary guests. However, the Li family did not expect that on the third day of the New Year, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Zheng family came to visit again.
After two consecutive visits, Mr. Li and Mrs. Li knew that there was something to be said.
Sure enough, Mrs. Zheng spoke up: "I came here today because I have something to discuss with you. It's about the children at home."
Mrs. Li said, "Are they Jianjun's two children? These two children have nothing to do with our Li family anymore."
No matter what, Zheng Jiang and Zheng Hai are Li Yuan's sons after all. Just for this reason, the Li family can no longer be close to these two children. When seeing them, Mrs. Li will think of how her own daughter has been persecuted by Li Yuan and his sister over the years.
"No, they are not the second oldest's two children." Old Mrs. Zheng said quickly, "They are my eldest son's children, my second grandson, Zheng Lin."
Speaking of the main character, Mrs. Zheng was not vague and said, "Speaking of which, we were in-laws before. No one expected something like that to happen, but we got along well before. I was thinking, if possible, can we continue to be in-laws? My second grandson Zheng Lin is 20 years old this year and is also in college. He will graduate next year and has a good future. We think that Zheng Lin is about the same age as your Su Qing, and both children are college students. If possible, why not let the two children get along with each other."
Lu Wenya also smiled and said, "Yes, my second son is pretty good-looking, his studies are also good, and he is popular in school."
The Li family was very surprised after hearing what the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said.
Old Madam Li opened her mouth and said after a while: "You want your Zheng Lin to date our Qingqing?"
"Yes." Old Mrs. Zheng nodded.
Old Mrs. Zheng was actually unsure in her heart. After all, what Li Yuan had done before was so outrageous. Although their Zheng family was not an accomplice, the Zheng family had Li Yuan's two sons. In the final analysis, there was a gap between the Zheng family and the Li family. They had not gotten along well before.
Originally, Mrs. Zheng thought that her relationship with the Li family would fade away in the future, but she didn't expect that her second grandson actually had feelings for Su Qing and told her eldest daughter-in-law about it, hoping that his family could help him to get together.
At first, the family wanted to dissuade them. It was obvious that this matter was not going to work. The Li family was definitely unwilling to marry their granddaughter to the Zheng family. And it was Su Qing. You have to know that Zheng Jiang and Zheng Hai's mother had done something untoward to Su Qing and her daughter.
However, unable to resist Zheng Lin's request, Mrs. Zheng and Lu Wenya finally had to shamelessly go to his house to give it a try. If it worked, everyone would be happy. If not, Zheng Lin would give up the idea.
Mrs. Li thought for a moment and said, "It's not our place to make the decision on this matter. You know, this is a new society, and we all value free love. Qingqing will have to make the decision on her own when she finds a partner in the future. As adults, we just need to check and we don't plan to get involved in other matters, not only Qingqing, but also the other children in our family. We don't plan to get involved too much."
After hearing what Old Lady Li said, Old Lady Zheng knew that this matter was probably not going to work, so she smiled and said, "That's indeed the case. In fact, it's because my second grandson has feelings for Qingqing, so we shamelessly came to talk about this matter today. In this case, just pretend that I didn't say anything about it today. If the two children are destined to be together in the future, we adults will just support them."
"Yes." Old Madam Li nodded with a smile. She didn't dislike the Zheng family. She was straightforward and honest, and didn't play tricks. At first, she and Old Madam Zheng had a good conversation. It was a pity...
Although she felt sorry, Mrs. Li also knew that everything depends on fate, and it was just that the Li family and the Zheng family did not have this fate.
Since the matter was not settled, Mrs. Zheng and her daughter-in-law sat for a while and then left. After they left, Mrs. Li said to Su Qing, "Qingqing, this is the first family that wants to meet you. I haven't encountered this before, but now that I have encountered it, grandma will tell you that your family will not interfere too much in your search for a partner. As long as you like the one, it's fine. But one thing, you have to let your family take a look. After all, we adults are older than you and can judge people more accurately. It will always help you avoid some detours."
Su Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, grandma, I understand."
Li Huan at the side said with a smile: "Qingqing, when grandma met Bei Ze, she said that Bei Ze has a straight eye and he must be a good person, so trust grandma's judgment."
Su Qing smiled and said, "Yes, yes, your Cheng Beize is the best."
Li Huan blushed immediately: "Of course... Of course, he is really good."
Seeing the two sisters teasing each other, the Li family members all smiled, but they didn't take the Zheng family's marriage proposal to heart.
