Chapter 882: Conversation at the dinner table (3)
Before Zhou Mingxuan could answer, Zhou Yunting poured cold water on him, "Forget it, stop daydreaming.
Xiaoxue is so capable, don’t you know what Mingxuan’s situation is?
If he wasn't their own child and there wasn't that filter in place, he would be really bad at nothing except eating.
That's how he is worthy of Xiaoxue."
When Wu Yunshang heard this, she was unhappy.
She had always felt extremely guilty towards her youngest son, and was not happy to hear her husband say something belittling about her son, let alone in front of him.
In her opinion, her youngest son is good in every way.
She didn't care that her father-in-law was watching her. She put down the chopsticks in her hand, pinched the soft flesh on Zhou Yunting's waist with her right hand, and made a 360-degree turn.
Zhou Yunting screamed in pain, "Wife, please be gentle, it hurts, it hurts too much.
Let go now."
Not only did Wu Yunshang not let go, she even pushed harder, "Is there a father in the world who belittles his own child like you?"
“I was wrong, I was wrong.
Wife, please let go."
Wu Yunshang secretly looked at Mr. Zhou and saw that he didn't even look at her, pretending not to hear anything. Knowing that her father-in-law had no objection to her teaching her husband a lesson, she became bolder.
But she knew the principle of knowing when to quit, so she tried again and then stopped.
While Zhou Yunshang was rubbing the sore spot, she still didn't let go of Zhou Mingxuan.
“Although I don’t want to admit it, you all know that Mingxuan is indeed a step behind Xiaoxue, so it’s natural that others look down on him.
Otherwise, since Mingxuan and Junhao are both there, why would her uncle and aunt go so far away and ask you to help find a partner for Xiaoxue?
I guess her uncle and aunt don't like Mingxuan and think that Mingxuan is not worthy of their niece. They don't agree, so they asked Dad to write to you, Yunshang, asking you to find another partner for Xiaoxue. "
Zhou Yunting sighed heavily, "Although I also hope that Xiaoxue can become the daughter-in-law of our Zhou family, it is really unfair for Xiaoxue to be paired with Mingxuan.
You guys, don’t hold on to such extravagant hopes.”
After hearing what Zhou Yunting said, Old Zhou, who had been happily fantasizing about Xiaoxue becoming his granddaughter-in-law, and that by then his granddaughter-in-law would be very capable, and his grandson would also have made great progress, and he would have earned a lot of face in front of those old friends, couldn't help but look down.
Although he loved his little grandson very much, he had to admit that compared with Xiaoxue, his grandson was indeed far inferior.
"Dad, is there anyone who hits his son like this?
I want to marry Xiaoxue. Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu haven't said anything. Why are you standing aside and opposing it?
Are you Xiaoxue's biological father or my biological father?" Zhou Mingxuan said dissatisfiedly.
Zhou Yunting was not polite at all, "Although you are my son, we must speak with conscience, you are not worthy of me.
If I had a good daughter like Xiaoxue, and someone like you wanted to marry my daughter, I would break your legs.
That's just like a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, where's your face!"
Wu Yunshang was also a little worried. She thought more about it.
"Son, it's not that your Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu are not satisfied with you as Xiaoxue's partner, so they specifically asked your grandfather to write to me and ask me to find a partner for Xiaoxue.
This is also to let us persuade you to give up, right?"
Zhou Mingxuan felt overwhelmed. What was going on?
I didn't expect that as soon as I mentioned letting Xiaoxue be my partner, the first person to disagree would be my own family.
"What are you thinking about? Xiaoxue and I haven't gotten along yet.
Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu don’t know how I feel about Xiaoxue.
You really think too much."
When Mr. Zhou heard this, he frowned and said, "We haven't even started yet, and you just said that you want Xiaoxue to be my granddaughter-in-law?
Why, you said you were here to amuse us."
"I like Xiaoxue and want to work towards this goal. I'm asking for your opinions.
Haven’t you seen that my mother is now busy finding partners for Xiaoxue and me?
If I don't explain it to you clearly, then you guys will steal my house." Zhou Mingxuan said helplessly.
"Just tell me, I want to find Xiaoxue as my partner and marry her home as the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family. Who among you objects?
Grandpa, you definitely don't object, right?
Dad, you shouldn't object, right?"
Zhou Mingxuan simply called out their names one by one, "Mom, you don't have any objections, do you?
Let me tell you, if I really marry Xiaoxue, she will be my wife, not yours.
She is so capable and such a nice person, don't even think about acting like a mother-in-law in front of her.
She is not like an ordinary young wife who spends her days taking care of her husband and children. She has her own things to do and doesn’t have much time to take care of these trivial matters.”
Zhou Mingxuan was worried that if it really happened, there would be conflicts between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, so he simply gave his mother a shot of prevention first.
After hearing what her youngest son said, Wu Yunshang felt a little unhappy. It was still hard to say whether this matter would succeed, so she protected her son first.
"Then what is she going to do if she marries someone and becomes a daughter-in-law, but doesn't take care of her husband and children?"
"Mom, it's not like you haven't used the medicines Xiaoxue sent you before, aren't those medicines ineffective?
You think it takes no time or effort to develop these drugs.
And the face and body cream I brought back for you this time, do you think it’s useful?”
“It is definitely useful. After using it for only half a month, I can feel that my face has become much whiter and moisturized, as if I am ten years younger.
If you go out like this, people will definitely not think you are my mother, they will mistake you for my elder sister, or even my younger sister."
Zhou Mingxuan praised his mother a lot.
Wu Yunshang touched his face and had to say that the cream his youngest son brought back to him, which was said to be developed by Xiaoxue, was really useful.
These days at work, her colleagues have asked her what they were applying, and their skin has indeed improved a lot, and they look a lot younger.
"Grandpa, Dad, Mom, don't you think it's a waste to keep Xiaoxue, who is so capable, trapped at home and by the stove?
Those chores at home can be handled by a nanny, but it doesn't necessarily require her to do it.
Besides, if we really get together, I'll still be there for you when I'm free.
She should use her talents to do great things and contribute to the country.
Just tell me, isn’t this the truth?”
Elder Zhou nodded first, "Mingxuan is right. If Xiaoxue gets married, she can't be trapped at home like an ordinary young wife.
We need to let her continue to display her talents and shine.”
Zhou Yunting didn't say much, just said, "Dad is right."
Seeing that the three generations had reached a consensus, Wu Yunshang felt a little jealous. She felt that if her son and Xiaoxue really got together, with the attitudes of the three of them, she would not be able to show off her power as a mother-in-law. She would be the one who would have to humble herself.
She curled her lips and whispered, "It hasn't even started yet.
You guys say this, as if Xiaoxue and Mingxuan will definitely be able to succeed.
Is it too early to be happy? "
