Chapter 1397: When Are You Getting Married?
Almost everyone who had come to join in on the fun received something. Most of them got melon seeds.
Everyone was filled with praise.
“Oh, Jing Jing! You’ve found such a great boyfriend. He even has a car!”
“I can tell he’s from a wealthy family. Jing Jing, you’re going to have such a good life in the future!”
“Going to university really makes a difference. She found such a generous boyfriend.”
“Your Han family will also have a good life!”
Mother Han’s heart ached unbearably when she saw Li Qinglang and Han Jing distribute so much food. But in the face of everyone’s compliments, she was too embarrassed to ask them to return it.
Fortunately, they quickly finished the distribution, and then Li Qinglang took even more things out of the trunk. Otherwise, Mother Han would surely have rushed over and snatched the things back so that they could not distribute them anymore.
Besides the cigarettes, dried fruits and biscuits that Li Qinglang bought yesterday, he added ten kilograms of pork and two boxes of fruit at the last minute.
In this era, people were not very particular about gifts when visiting relatives. But it was definitely a mark of respect to give meat and fruits.
…
At the time, resources in the villages were still very scarce, and these were very rare.
Most children grew up in large families. Even a single sweet had to be shared among many siblings.
Mother Han beamed when she saw the ten kilograms of meat. She hurriedly led him into the house.
When everyone sat down, Father Han could not help but ask, “What does your family do? Where do you live?”
Li Qinglang smiled and replied, “My name is Li Qinglang. My family runs a small business. We currently live in the city center.”
Li Qinglang smiled and brought out two sets of clothes. “I know there are children in the family, so I specially bought a set of clothes for the two children. Uncle, Aunty, please accept them.”
Mother Han was taken aback. She had not expected him to buy clothes after buying so many other presents. She was delighted. “Oh, you are too polite. You even bought clothes for the children.”
She saw that there was a set of boy’s clothes and a set of girl’s clothes and immediately said, “In the future, you only have to buy for our Chuanzong. Little Yu is just a girl, no need to waste money on her!”
Wang Xiaoqin was completely embarrassed by her words, and Han Yu bowed her head.
Li Qinglang smiled. “Aunty is joking. Girls are humans too. Our family does not favor boys over girls. When Jing Jing marries me in the future, my family won’t blame her even if she has a girl.”
This was irrefutable.
Even Father and Mother Han had no choice but to compliment him. Surely they could not say that the other party could chase their daughter out of the house if she only gave birth to girls in the future?
It was one thing for them to favor boys. But for someone else to favor boys and even blame her daughter for not bearing a son was a completely different matter.
“Oh, oh! That’s true too. Your parents are so open-minded. Ah, ah!”
Mother Han smiled rather awkwardly. But she did not really care about that. In fact, it was a matter of complete indifference to her. She immediately asked, “What kind of business is your family in? How much money do you make a year? How many rooms does your house have?”
Han Shu and Han Jing were terribly embarrassed when they saw their parents staring at Li Qinglang. These two old people were clearly very eager to know about such things.
“Mother! Little Li just arrived, why are you asking such things?” Han Shu was really embarrassed.
“Why can’t I ask about such things? I’ve raised my daughter for so many years, and she’s a university student too. Now that she’s getting married, I…”
“I’m not getting married yet! I’m just bringing him to visit you. I…”
Mother Han interrupted Han Jing before she could finish. “What? You’re not preparing to get married? Why date if you’re not getting married? Are you toying with my daughter?”
Han Jing: “…”
Couldn’t she just speak nicely?
