What kind of joke was this? How could this world have a reason for an elder to find a place in the Daughter-in-law?
Zhang Cheng was a famed honest man, who had always been cautious and prudent. What was going on today, to say such earth-shattering things?
”Little White, your uncle is a farmer. He hasn't seen the world and doesn't know how to talk.” Zhang Cheng sat back down, his face showing a trace of desolation, and said: ”But uncle has a straightforward personality, he won't lie, and he won't beat around the bush.”
Jiang Xiaobai became even more confused, and said: ”Uncle, speak.”
When your parents were alive, our relationship was the best. Once, your father and I had a drink and joked that if the two families had children, a man and a woman, we would have a family.” Thinking back, a smile appeared on Zhang Cheng's face that he had not seen for a long time. He said, ”It's a pity that this wish of mine was not fulfilled. Our families are both sons.
Was there such a thing?
Jiang Xiaobai felt a burst of pain in his heart.
When Jiang Xiaobai was in high school, his parents both passed away due to a car accident, and he became an orphan. If it wasn't for Zhang Cheng occasionally helping him and thinking of ways to send him into the army, Jiang Xiaobai reckoned that he would probably have become a homeless person right now.
Zhang Cheng sighed, and said: ”You know, I have always treated you as my godson.”
”I know.” Jiang Xiaobai's eyes turned red.
Zhang Cheng continued, ”Little Treasure is like a blood brother to you.”
”We had the best relationship when we were in school. We teamed up and fought invincible battles in the school.” Jiang Xiaobai laughed, but when he thought about the dead Zhang Xiaobao, his heart ached again.
”When the two of you were young, you lived together in mud. When the two of you were young, you lived together in mud. Zhang Cheng paused, and said: ”Xiao Bao's things, are yours. Your things, are also Little Treasure's things. ”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded his head, in a sense, what he said was true. He was truly a good brother who shared good fortune and bad luck with Zhang Xiaobao.
Zhang Cheng continued: ”So, Little Treasure's home is your home!”
”This …” Jiang Xiaobai was confused.
Zhang Cheng said: ”Little Treasure is no longer here, his wife should also be your wife!”
Ah!” Jiang Xiaobai nearly jumped up.
What kind of logic was this? Things could be differentiated from each other, so how could a wife share it?
”Don't be in such a hurry to say your piece, let me ask you a few questions first.” Zhang Cheng was calm like never before, and asked: ”Is Yuzhu pretty?”
With such a question, Jiang Xiaobai could only nod his head in agreement.
Not mentioning Jiang Xiaobai, even the people from the eight villages all admitted that Chen Yuzhu was a beauty out of a hundred.
”Then what about Yuzhu's character?” Zhang Cheng continued to ask: ”What I mean is, is she that kind of coquettish woman?”
”Absolutely not.” If Chen Yuzhu was a coquettish woman, then there wouldn't be many good women in the entire Jiangjiafang.
”A proper woman, a beautiful woman, and a filial woman at that. Where can I find such a good woman?” Zhang Cheng said: ”If this kind of woman marries to you, you won't lose out!”
