Chapter 1928: Chapter 983: Enlightenment
Lian Manman couldn’t help but glance at Lian Yeye, thinking, no wonder Lian Yeye came over today, her smile has hardly faded from her face. Given this, Lian Manman was very willing to help them once more.
"Actually, my third uncle has nothing to worry about." Lian Manman raised her voice and said, "My third uncle and third aunt provided for the Old Master, arranged his funeral, mourned for him, and are now still taking care of the Old Lady. By all accounts, no one can stop you two from being buried in the ancestral tomb."
That’s one aspect, and on the other hand, thinking about the current situation of the Lian Family, as for Lian Shouren and Lian Jizu, let’s just say, over these years, those two have been nothing but idle gluttons, yet they don’t cause trouble. As for the troublemaker Lian Shouyi, he’s been dealt with, and it’s unlikely he’ll stir up anything in the future.
Moreover, the most important point is, as long as Lian Shouxin doesn’t speak up, Lian Shouren and Lian Shouyi wouldn’t dare come forward to obstruct, as for the nephews like Lian Jizu, Erlang, Liulang, they are not meddlesome nor are they scoundrels.
Lian Shouli really has nothing to worry about.
"That’s true." Lady Zhang also added, "When you go back, tell your third uncle to open up his heart. Besides, you may not have a son now, but who knows in the future you might have one. Even if you don’t, there’s still Yeye. When she comes of age, bring in a son-in-law, have a son and let him take Yeye’s surname, then he would be your own grandson. There’s no need to fear no one bearing mourning attire for you in the future!"
Upon hearing Lady Zhang talk about bringing in a son-in-law, Lian Yeye immediately lowered her head, her face blushing. Lady Zhao’s eyes, however, lit up.
Lady Zhang and Lian Manman exchanged a glance, the mother and daughter both chuckled. It seems in some matter, Lian Shouli and Lady Zhao have also made up their minds.
"Wu Lang’s matter has been settled, it’s about to happen." Lady Zhao asked Lady Zhang, "Has there been any progress on Manman’s affair? It should be a matter of one or two years, right?"
"Once Wu Lang’s matter is done, we’ll arrange hers." Lady Zhang glanced at Lian Manman, then smiled at Lady Zhao, "You don’t have to wait for her, if there’s someone suitable, then arrange it for Yeye."
"This isn’t like the olden days when we were all together," Lady Zhang told Lady Zhao, "We don’t have to stick to a strict sequence anymore. We are now separate families, moreover, Manman and Yeye are sisters born in the same year. If there’s someone suitable for Yeye, settle it, don’t have to wait for Manman."
Lady Zhang also sensed that Lady Zhao was inclined to bring in a son-in-law for Lian Yeye, which is a good thing. Given that Lian Yeye and Lian Manman are the same age, Lady Zhang feared that Lady Zhao might hesitate due to the order, possibly missing out on a good match, causing a delay for Lian Yeye.
"It’s not that fast, it’ll probably be after Manman." Lady Zhao said with a smile.
"As I said, with your current situation, plus Yeye’s character and appearance, this son-in-law should be carefully chosen." Talking about their children’s marriage, Lady Zhang had more to say. "It’s a matter of a child’s lifetime. Since you are planning to bring in a son-in-law, nothing else matters, the character of the child is the most important."
Now that Lian Shouli’s family has some wealth, and Lian Shouli has a skill that can be passed on to the son-in-law who joins their family. Besides, Lian Yeye has a good appearance, is well-mannered, lively, and capable in both indoor and outdoor tasks. With such conditions, they can definitely bring in a good son-in-law.
Lady Zhang and Lian Manman were both happy for Lady Zhao and Lian Yeye.
"Mom, my third aunt has already figured it out, you might as well put aside that thing about Yan Daopo, and the rituals, lest you run around looking for a shaman again." Lian Manman laughed as she said to Lady Zhang.
"You’ve been worried for nothing." Lady Zhao also said.
Lady Zhang gave Lian Manman a glance of mild reproach, seemingly not quite agreeing with Lian Manman referring to Yan Daopo’s "Immortal Elixir, rituals" as a scam, then turned and waved to Lady Zhao.
"What kind of words are those, what worry or no worry. Over all these years, between the two of us, is there even a need to say these things!" Lady Zhang said, "Since you’ve thought it through, we won’t mention it anymore. This time, when you go to Prefecture City, take the chance to stroll around with ease."
"Have you all discussed with your third uncle whether all three of you are going?" Lady Zhang then asked Lady Zhao.
"We’ve discussed it, Yeye’s father said, let the two of us go, he still won’t. He’ll stay home to watch over the house." Lady Zhao replied, "I reckon you might not have anyone left here, Zhizhi’s family will probably all go. With Yeye’s father at home, he can at least help look after things here as well."
Lady Zhao’s words left Lady Zhang unable to press further.
