Chapter 1820: A Good Man Doesn't Need to Worry About Not Having a Wife

~4 min read 624 words

Several people stood up together and went out of the shed. They saw a man in his fifties at the door of a shed next door, pointing his finger outside and glaring at a young man in his twenties.

The young man didn't show weakness and wanted to leave.

Standing beside them was Li Shuqin, the nanny of Su Xinghui's family. She was anxious and pulled the young man's arm, not letting him go.

Zhu Tie's father-in-law walked over and said to the man, "Dajun, what are you doing? Why are you so angry at the child?"

This man was Hong Dajun, Li Shuqin's husband. He pointed at his son and said, "This little brat brought his girlfriend back today. His mother bought a lot of good food to entertain his girlfriend, but after his girlfriend came and finished eating, she left. Now he's making a scene with me and his mother, saying that the family is too poor to keep his girlfriend. Brother Feng, tell me, is this little brat a jerk!"

Zhu Tie's father-in-law's surname was Feng. He said to Hong Dajun, "Dajun, he's just a child, he must be a bit ignorant. Just talk to him nicely, why are you so angry?"

Hong Dajun said, "I talked to him nicely, but this little brat said the family is too poor and made him lose face, causing him not to find a girlfriend. He said he wouldn't come back again and wanted to break off relations with our whole family. Is this something a person should say? If he wants to go, let him go. Shuqin, why are you holding him?"

The young man shouted loudly, "It's true, didn't I say it right? You are useless. The family is so poor that I can't find a girlfriend. I want to leave here and never come back. Mom, let me go!"

Hong Dajun was so angry that he raised his hand and was about to slap him, but Li Shuqin blocked in front of her son, making him unable to slap.

Grandpa Feng said with a straight face to Hong Dajun's son, "Xiaoshan, how are you talking? This is your father and mother. They raised you for twenty years and paid for your schooling. Now you say you don't recognize them? You won't come back? Is this what you should say?"

Grandpa Feng had great prestige in this compound. Hong Xiaoshan had been afraid of him since he was a child. Once Grandpa Feng spoke, Hong Xiaoshan didn't dare to show his teeth. He hung his head and said, "Grandpa Feng, I finally found a girlfriend. I was going to bring her back today for my dad and mom to see, but as soon as she came and saw our family's situation, she left after eating. It was agreed before coming that she would stay here tonight, but she said she had something to do at home. This must be because she saw our family is poor and didn't like it, right? What can I do?"

Grandpa Feng said, "Xiaoshan, Xiaoshan, how do you want me to talk about you? You only have this much ambition? There is a good saying, a good man doesn't need to worry about not having a wife? You are in college now, can't you find a good wife in the future?"

Hong Xiaoshan lowered his head. At this time, Li Shuqin saw Su Xinghui and hurriedly called out, "County Magistrate Su, why are you here?"

The neighbors all came out and surrounded the Hong family. They heard Li Shuqin call County Magistrate Su, so they all looked at Su Xinghui, An Dachang, and Zhu Tie. Some recognized that these three were deputy county magistrates of the county.
