Chapter 435: Chapter 434: Then Pretend I Didn’t Say Anything
Lin Xia had never thought about pairing Yu Hongli with Head Nurse Luo before.
But today, by chance, they ended up together, and a spark of inspiration made her think they might be a good match.
However, since Head Nurse Luo was quite a bit older than Yu Hongli, she decided she should ask first.
Beside, it wasn’t even certain if Head Nurse Luo would agree!
As soon as Lin Aijia heard Lin Xia’s question, she hastily replied, "Sure! Your Brother Hongli isn’t getting any younger, and it’s fine if she’s one or two years older! I can even accept three years older!
Don’t they say ’An older woman will bring home the gold bricks’? I’m not that old-fashioned! But it would be best if she’s never been married. To be honest, I really can’t accept someone who has divorced..."
Her son was a decent young man, lacking nothing, and she certainly couldn’t get over the hurdle of him finding a divorced woman.
Lin Xia chuckled awkwardly, and cautiously asked, "What about unmarried women who are two big gold bricks?"
She didn’t know exactly how old Head Nurse Luo was, but she guessed there might be a five or six year age difference between them.
After a few seconds of silence, Lin Aijia finally spoke, "Lin Xia, that’s a bit too old, isn’t it? If a woman in her thirties is still unmarried, doesn’t that mean there might be something wrong?"
"Um... there shouldn’t be anything wrong! Aunt, she’s really beautiful!" Lin Xia didn’t know Head Nurse Luo very well, so she spoke with some uncertainty.
Lin Aijia naturally sensed it and said, "Lin Xia, let’s forget about anyone much older, alright? Even if there’s nothing wrong and she looks good, there’s still the matter of having children... Women age..."
Lin Xia understood her point. "Fine! Let’s pretend I never mentioned it! I’ll keep an eye out for someone for my Brother Hongli!"
"Thanks! I’ll wait for your call!"
"Okay!"
After the call ended, Lin Xia thought that it was normal for her aunt to view the age issue from her perspective, and she could understand.
She skimmed through the single, available ladies she knew. There were plenty, like Liu Caifeng or Ding Ling, who were several years younger than Yu Hongli;
But whether they would hit it off, she wasn’t sure. She thought it best to ask Yu Hongli himself when the opportunity arose, to see what kind of person he was looking to find.
Later that night, when Lin Xia went to close the store, she locked the door and saw Chen’s mother also locking up with the staff; Qian Jie hadn’t been showing up lately and was rumored to have quit.
Lin Xia curved her lips slightly and stepped forward, addressing Chen’s mother in front of everyone and the neighbors boldly and directly, "Auntie! Please pass a message to Lin Yu for me. Since her mom and my dad are already divorced, there’s utterly no relation between us anymore!
So could you urge them to move their household registration out of our house in the next few days? What does it mean to keep their registration with us after a divorce? The apartment division assigned by my dad’s work unit is nearly finished, do they have any ideas about that?"
Lin Xia deliberately spoke this way!
Wasn’t Lin Yu still arrogantly warning Lin Dong to watch her words? And she even took advantage of her mother-in-law to pressure her into moving her household registration!
Chen’s mother’s face really didn’t look good, but in front of others, she had to maintain her composure, "Of course not! How could they think that way! Lin Xia! I’ll talk to her as soon as I get home and tell them to take care of it promptly!"
The anger inside Chen’s mother rose rapidly; the family of this daughter-in-law really had too many issues!
"Okay! Thank you, Auntie!" Lin Xia thanked her with feigned politeness, then hopped on her bicycle, humming a tune as she rode away.
Lin Yu was scolded by her fuming mother-in-law when she got home, telling them to move their household registration immediately, to avoid being talked about to their faces!
Lin Yu secretly resented the situation, but her face still bore a smile, "Mom! Don’t worry! I will definitely urge my mom to get this done quickly!"
"Alright! You guys better hurry up!" Chen’s mother waved her hand impatiently, at this moment, it was only for the sake of Lin Yu’s unborn grandchild that she could barely stand to look at her.
Out of all her relatives and friends, no one else’s daughter-in-law brought as many issues from her family.
Sometimes she regretted not being firm enough back then, and now she was in a difficult position, unable to move forward or back.
"Mom! Can my household registration be moved to our house?" Lin Yu thought, after all, she was now married to Chen Gang. Although they could not get a marriage certificate due to her being underage, their child was about to be born; thus, it seemed only natural for her household registration to be transferred as well.
Chen’s mother’s eyes flickered, and she smiled kindly, "Lin Yu, this matter isn’t for me to decide. Let’s wait for Chen Gang’s dad to come back, and then we can all sit down and discuss it! Right now, the most urgent thing is for you to get your mom to move the household registration quickly, to avoid having people talk about it to our faces!"
She genuinely did not want Lin Yu’s household registration moved in because she had some knowledge of her son’s affairs with other women, and it was still unclear whether her son and Lin Yu could have a long-term future together.
"Okay! Mom! Don’t worry! I will go over and tell my mom after dinner!" Lin Yu agreed on the surface with apparent ease, but inside she was exceedingly frustrated.
She could tell that her mother-in-law did not want her household registration moved in.
Their household registrations were originally transferred out of the village and placed under the Lin Family, becoming a city household registration.
But now, moving it back would mean it becomes a rural household registration again.
She had urged her mom, Qian Chunli, several times to handle this matter, but each time her mom would make all sorts of excuses.
And why wouldn’t she understand the reason! It was nothing but a lack of face to go back!
Moreover, if the household registration was moved back, it would definitely be placed under her grandmother’s name, and just thinking about her uncles and aunts gave her a headache...
Lin Aijia returned home from work, and during the meal began to casually mention the matter of asking Lin Xia to find a match for Yu Hongli.
"...Lin Xia even mentioned a good-looking woman who was older by several years, but as soon as I heard it I knew it wouldn’t work. Our Hongli is in his twenties and to pair him with someone in her thirties, they just wouldn’t match..."
Changbai, sipping his white wine beside her, chuckled in agreement, "That’s really a big age difference! Let Lin Xia put in a bit more effort to find another match! The best would be someone of a similar age!"
Lin Fang chewed her food and joined in, "Exactly! My Brother Hongli could maybe be with someone one or two years older than him! Six years is a bit too much!"
She was thinking that now her relationship with Lin Xia had eased, if Lin Xia really did manage to find a match for Yu Hongli, she must make a point of buttering up Lin Xia to help her find a partner with good conditions as well.
The three people at the table each had their own opinion, while the main subject of the conversation, Yu Hongli, silently kept his head down and ate his meal.
Yu Hongli was wondering at that moment who the older woman mentioned by Lin Xia could be!
Based on the age difference and attractiveness, Yu Hongli began to think maybe it could be Nurse Luo!
If it was her, he wouldn’t mind the six-year difference!
Lin Aijia sensed something off about her son’s reaction and couldn’t help but take a closer look at him as he ate quietly, "Hongli! You’ve been so quiet! Are you also unwilling because she’s six years older than you?"
Yu Hongli suppressed the excitement in his heart and calmly replied, "It depends on what kind of person she is. If she’s a good person, then being six years older doesn’t matter!"
Lin Aijia’s eyes widened, "How can it not matter! Women in their thirties are already old!" She had really not expected her son to think this way, as most young men preferred to find someone younger than themselves.
