In the vegetable garden, Zhao Huaishan walked over to a stone table not far away.
This stone table was where Li Xiaoran and the others usually rested in the vegetable garden.
After Xu Xiufang followed them in, the three of them sat down.
“Sisi! Have you thought it through?” Xu Xiufang asked.
After Zhao Sisi thought for a moment, she revealed her thoughts, “Although I’ve always thought that Mao Dao was a good person, I knew that my parents definitely wouldn’t agree to this marriage! Therefore, I’ve been thinking of a way to persuade my parents to agree to this marriage!”
In the Zhao family, only Grandpa and Grandma could help her.
She couldn’t drag Xiaoran and her aunt down anymore. This time, she should fight for her own happiness bravely.
“Today, when I heard Mao Dao’s words, I was suddenly very touched. Mao Dao knows what his shortcomings are and is also trying his best to think of a way to make up for them. Why can’t we? Father and Mother want me to climb up the social ladder and marry a rich and powerful man, but why can’t Father and Mother recognize reality? What’s so outstanding about me that they’re certain I’ll be chosen by a rich and powerful man? I don’t have anything that those people will fancy!” Zhao Sisi said calmly.
“Even if they do, it’s because of Xiaoran and my brother-in-law’s status! How can I dare to marry into such a family? Once they have requests for my cousin and my brother-in-law but my brother-in-law doesn’t agree to them, I’ll be the one in the most difficult position! Being sandwiched between my in-laws and my family is definitely not a good feeling! I don’t want to live such a life. I just want to have a husband who dotes on me. I’m not afraid no matter how bitter or tiring life is, as long as the two of us are diligent! We have hands and feet, so why would we be afraid of not having a good life in the future?”
When Zhao Sisi said these words, her tone became more and more firm.
Zhao Huaishan and Xu Xiufang could tell that their granddaughter had thought it through very clearly and didn’t agree to Mao Dao’s marriage proposal out of impulse!
“Grandpa, Grandma! Out of consideration for Father and Mother’s pride, you guys haven’t exposed the truth, causing my parents to be immersed in their fantasies and become more and more delusional! You’re doing this because you hope that my parents can come to their senses one day, but there are some things that my parents will never realize unless they see the harsh reality. This time, perhaps it should be me, their daughter, who should personally let them see what the reality is!” Zhao Sisi said.
Zhao Sisi said what she had wanted to say a long time ago. “Being filial isn’t about indulging one’s parents. If there’s anything wrong with one’s parents, as their child, one should help them correct their mistake!”
When Zhao Huaishan heard Zhao Sisi’s words, he revealed a gratified smile.
“I didn’t expect you to be the first person in your generation to see things so thoroughly! Sisi, you’re very impressive! You surprised me! If your siblings can be like you, the Zhao family won’t have to worry in the future!”
Zhao Sisi didn’t expect her grandfather to say this and she immediately looked at the two elders in surprise.
“Sisi, you don’t have to be shocked. Actually, I’ve seen through the shortcomings of your generation long ago! You guys lacked courage and boldness. The reason I wanted to bring you guys out of Eagle Village was because I hoped that you guys would gain experience when facing these things and hone your tenacity!” Xu Xiufang said.
“Originally, Grandpa thought that your brother would be the first to achieve this! After all, he had the best opportunity. Not long after he came out, he encountered the Hu family. Even when your brother was dispirited, we still didn’t do anything because we wanted to see when he would completely come to his senses! Unfortunately, your brother didn’t have your courage and boldness!” Zhao Huaishan sighed. “Fortunately, he went out to adventure later on, which gave him another chance!”
Zhao Sisi couldn’t process their words.
It turned out that Grandpa and Grandma had never interfered in anything because they wanted to use these experiences to toughen them?
“Alright, since you’ve already thought it through, I’ll help you! I’ll make your parents agree to this marriage! However, Sisi, have you really decided that he’s the one?” Zhao Huaishan said when he saw his granddaughter’s shocked expression.
After Zhao Sisi came back to her senses, she nodded solemnly and firmly. “Grandpa, I’m very sure he’s the one!”
“Since you’re sure, let’s go out together and let that kid propose marriage at the end of tomorrow morning! At that time, your grandma and I will make the decision for you!” Zhao Huaishan said, “Don’t tell your parents about this after you go back today. When the person proposing marriage comes tomorrow, your grandma and I will handle it! Don’t cause unnecessary trouble!” When Zhao Sisi heard her grandfather’s words, her face lit up. “Thank you, Grandpa. Thank you, Grandma!”
When Xu Xiufang saw Zhao Sisi’s happy expression, she smiled.
After that, the three of them walked out together.
Wanting to know the outcome of the three of them’s discussion, everyone looked over at this moment.
Zhao Huaishan looked at the nervous Mao Dao and said, “Mao Dao, invite the matchmaker to come and propose marriage tomorrow! Come to me at around
Mao Dao was actually prepared to be rejected. When he heard Zhao Huaishan’s words, he was immediately struck with joy.
“You look so overjoyed!” He Hui teased, “Mao Dao, hurry up and express your stance. Don’t you want to marry Zhao Sisi?”
Mao Dao immediately came back to his senses and he couldn’t suppress the joy on his face as he quickly nodded.
“Grandpa, no, sir, thank you! Don’t worry, I’ll definitely treat Miss Sisi well! If I don’t do it, you can teach me a lesson! I, I, I’ll be at your mercy!” Zhao Huaishan smiled when he saw how excited Mao Dao was.
“Of course. Your village is not far from Hele Village. If you bully my granddaughter, I’ll call my grandson over to beat you up!”
“I can build a house in Hele Village! I’ve saved up some money, which is enough to build a house! This way, you can watch over me every day in the future!” Mao Dao said..
