Chapter 606: Chapter 606 You’re Elbowing Outward
Seeing that her daughter had been staring in silence, only staring back at her with wide eyes.
"What’s with that look?"
"Mom, why do I feel like you’re trying to sell my brother?"
Mrs. Wang felt somewhat displeased when her daughter spoke to her like that.
"I said that to make her back off, but lo and behold, she actually wants to buy a house. Another person would have said, ’You wish,’ and might have even broken up, but what is she thinking? She tells me she’s not free and asks me to help look for a house. She’s not even married into the Wang Family yet, and she’s already ordering me around."
Mom, don’t you think there’s something off with you?
"Mom, my brother isn’t getting any younger. Besides, you can’t stop him from marrying whoever he wants. Wouldn’t it be better to be a good mother-in-law, let them get married sooner, and hold grandchildren earlier? Then when you retire, you can help look after the kids while they work hard to earn money for you and the children. Isn’t that good?"
Sister Wang: If it weren’t for the fact that her brother had secretly come to her to ask her to persuade Mom, she would have really wanted to stand by her mom’s side.
"She’s not wrong. She works during the day and goes to night school in the evening, plus she’s busy with designs at the factory. Where would she find the time?"
Mrs. Wang, looking at her daughter, said, "Why do I feel like your loyalty is bending outward?"
Sister Wang immediately chuckled, "Mom, I’m not, I’m just aware of my brother’s stubborn nature. If you really don’t agree with their marriage and even try to break them up, he might just decide not to marry at all, sticking with bachelorhood forever. Then you’ll be the one worrying, regretting it when it’s too late."
Mrs. Wang felt even more uneasy inside, "I’ll go back and think it over."
Watching her mom’s retreating figure, Sister Wang thought to herself: Brother, I really spoke well for you, now it’s up to Mom to decide.
Mrs. Wang went to work, looking listless.
She looked the same when she came back from work.
"What’s the matter?"
Mr. Wang had rarely seen Mrs. Wang like this and immediately asked.
What?
How could she explain?
But the anger inside her demanded an outlet.
Mrs. Wang then explained the reason for her distress to Mr. Wang.
This left Mr. Wang a bit stunned.
The wife usually handled herself well, how could her judgment falter over their son’s issues?
"She even agreed to buy a house, asking me to help her look." Mrs. Wang continued talking incessantly, her tone filled with indignation.
"Why not have a look for her, see if she can afford the house? If she can, then she’s not just talking big. If she can’t, then it’s just empty talk. You can then make her back off," Mr. Wang suggested to his wife.
Secretly, Mr. Wang thought, since Comrade Xiao Zhao mentioned buying a house, it must mean that her Third Brother had money.
If Comrade Xiao Zhao really ended up with his son, even if relatives gossiped, he could use this fact as a rebuttal.
"Right, I want to make her back off. I want to see how much money her Third Brother can lend her. I’ll find her a big house, one that she can’t afford."
Mrs. Wang seemed to regain her energy in an instant.
"You cook, I’ll go see Sister Chen; I remember her mentioning that a house was for sale, I’ll go have a look."
Mr. Wang’s eyes were filled with resignation and indulgence.
Let her go have a look.
Buying a house is not that easy these days, after all.
