Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

After Wang Dashan, Wang Erhai, Du Xiaojuan and the others left, Li Xiulan was overjoyed; whenever she thought of her eldest son getting married soon, she was happier than during the Spring Festival.

But Wang Zhanggen beside her wore a stern face, showing no sign of happiness.

"Why are you wearing such a stern face? Who made you unhappy?"

Seeing his expression, Li Xiulan was puzzled.

Logically speaking, the one who should be happiest at home was him, Wang Zhanggen; after all, Wang Zhanggen was even more eager than Li Xiulan to hold a grandson. Since returning from hospitalization for a cerebral hemorrhage, he had kept muttering that even if he died, he had to hold on until he saw his own grandson born before dying.

It was precisely because of this strong desire that he had become incredibly tenacious. Although he looked in good spirits now, in reality he had a whole host of ailments.

"I don't quite approve of Dashan and Du Xiaojuan getting married."

Wang Zhanggen pulled a long face and suddenly said such a sentence.

These words not only startled Li Xiulan, but even Wang Xiaohua beside her was startled.

"Dashan finally reconciled with Xiao Juan, and now their relationship is so good. On what grounds do you disapprove?"

Li Xiulan asked unhappily.

Wang Zhanggen said with a long face:

"You woman, I say you have long hair and short knowledge, yet you still refuse to accept it! Can't you see this? Du Xiaojuan doesn't sincerely want to be with our Dashan; he just wants Dashan's money!"

Wang Zhanggen's remarks left not only Li Xiulan puzzled, but even Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but add a few words.

"Where did you deduce this conclusion from?"

Wang Xiaohua asked, crying and laughing at the same time.

In his view, this old man's conclusion was simply absurd to the extreme.

Du Xiaojuan is the founder of Xiao Du Technology, with an estimated net worth ten times, even a hundred times that of Wang Dashan. Would she covet that bit of money from Wang Dashan?

However, Wang Zhanggen had his own set of logic to support his theory, and he said decisively:

"Does this even need deduction? I saw it directly! Previously she came back here for a trip and quickly broke up with Dashan. Isn't that disliking our family for being poor? And now she has reconciled with Dashan because Dashan's company is thriving and has made a lot of money! Dashan directly taking three hundred thousand back to his hometown this time can corroborate my deduction!"

Wang Zhanggen's reasoning, you have to admit, actually had some logic to it!

As a result, even Li Xiulan was stunned upon hearing this, and felt it really did make some sense.

"Xiao Juan actually took a fancy to our Dashan's money?"

Li Xiulan was surprised, and her good impression of Du Xiaojuan instantly diminished greatly.

Wang Xiaohua immediately laughed in anger and hurriedly said to Li Xiulan:

"Mom, don't listen to his nonsense; he's just guessing randomly. Do you know how impressive Eldest Sister-in-law's Xiao Du Technology is? Her monthly business turnover is several tens of millions. Would she look down on my big brother's bit of money? I estimate that the three hundred thousand my big brother brought back this time was very likely given to him by Eldest Sister-in-law!"

Wang Zhanggen immediately became unhappy:

"Where did you get your news? Can a little woman earn several tens of millions a month? Do you take me for a fool? If she earned several tens of millions a month, wouldn't she become the richest person in China?"

Wang Xiaohua cried and laughed at the same time, and could only patiently explain:

"I'm talking about her company's monthly business turnover, not saying she earns several tens of millions a month. All of this can be checked online!"

"Everything online is deceitful. Why believe that? Anyway, I just don't believe it. A little woman—how could she possibly earn so much!"

Wang Zhanggen said decisively.

In his cognition, a woman at most earned over ten thousand a month at best. How could she possibly earn so much money?

If there really were a woman who earned that much money, it would be even more unbearable than killing him!

Because this directly shattered his worldview and would cause his cognition to collapse.

"Believe it or not, the facts are right there. Anyway, in one sentence: Eldest Sister-in-law absolutely does not covet Big Brother's money. She truly loves Big Brother, which is why she is with him!"

Wang Xiaohua didn't know how to explain to that old man anymore.

Once a person's cognition solidifies, they cannot accept anything outside of it.

Wang Zhanggen's thinking was exactly like this now.

"You all stop arguing!"

Seeing that if Wang Xiaohua continued like this, he would likely argue with Wang Zhanggen again, Li Xiulan hurriedly stepped in to mediate.

She said:

"I don't care how Xiao Juan thinks. As long as Dashan is willing to marry Xiao Juan, I won't oppose it!"

Wang Zhanggen immediately said coldly:

"That is an irresponsible attitude. Anyway, I don't agree to this marriage!"

Li Xiulan said coldly:

"You don't agree, fine. Then let Dashan not get married. But don't blame me for not reminding you: Dashan's temper is even more stubborn than yours. If you ruin his and Xiao Juan's relationship, he might never marry for the rest of his life. By the time you die, you might not even get to hold a grandson. You decide for yourself. I don't care; my health is very good. I can wait another ten or twenty years. Ask yourself—can you live that long?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhanggen's throat was immediately choked, and he couldn't say a word.

Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but chuckle beside them.

To deal with this old man, it still took his own mother, who was most familiar with him.

Some people are just like this—dead set in their ways!

If it doesn't involve their own interests, you can never persuade them!

But as soon as it involves their own interests, they immediately change their attitude.

Wang Zhanggen's reaction now was very typical.

Wang Zhanggen thought in his heart: Yes, if Wang Dashan and Du Xiaojuan broke up and no longer found a partner to marry, could he still hold a grandson before he died?

You have to know, his health is poor now, and how long he can live is uncertain; he feels that if he can last ten years, that's already burning the highest incense!

And now among the three sons at home, except for Wang Dashan who has found a partner, Wang Erhai and Wang Xiaohua still haven't found partners; expecting the Second Brother and Youngest Brother to give him grandchildren is even more unrealistic!

In the end Wang Zhanggen could only compromise:

"Fine, fine, then I won't interfere anymore, you all do as you please! I only have one wish, and that is to urge you to give me grandchildren as soon as possible!"

Seeing his change in attitude, Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but laugh:

"That's more like it. You can't even manage your own life properly, so don't meddle in Eldest Brother's life."

Wang Zhanggen pulled a long face and stopped speaking.

Li Xiulan then said:

"Rest assured, as long as Dashan and Xiao Juan get married, they will definitely have children as soon as possible!"

Li Xiulan did not want to interfere in Wang Dashan's choice of marriage partner; her own marriage was a choice made under her parents' interference, but judging by the current result, she was not happy either.

It was not to say that if she had married He Dazhu back then things would have been any particular way, but at least it could be confirmed that Wang Zhanggen, an honest man in outsiders' eyes, was not as good as imagined.

Her own marriage was a mess, so she should stop blindly directing her son's marriage.

She still had this bit of self-awareness.

This was the greatest difference between her and Wang Zhanggen.
