Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 779: Chapter 773: Qin Jiale with Gold Inlay

Nangong Shulan treasures their children dearly. There’s no way she would just let this woman confuse them. This woman claimed that Lele and her son liked each other. It just so happened that her husband planned to visit their children tomorrow. They must get to the bottom of this, or they might regret it if this really affects their children.

“I don’t care what your family intends, but we don’t agree with it. Even if my daughter has to stay unmarried for the rest of her life, I’ll still take care of her. In fact, we were thinking of accepting a son-in-law into our home. Maybe it’s not a bad idea for your son to become our son-in-law. Our children can then take care of us when we’re old. It’s better to have them by our side, so they won’t be bullied.” Nangong Shulan didn’t believe that this woman would still try to claim her daughter after hearing this.

“How can my son be a son-in-law at his wife’s home? Your daughter is not made of gold.” Li Zhaodi got furious upon hearing this. She had only this one son, so there was no way she would let him be the son-in-law of someone else’s family. Somehow, she only had this one son and never had another child. Her husband’s family also wanted her to help raise some grandchildren, but she hadn’t even seen a single granddaughter, let alone a grandson. Fortunately, she had a son, or else she would have probably been divorced long ago.

As for the idea of Nangong Shulan getting her son to join their household, not only would Li Zhaodi not agree, her husband’s family would also disapprove. Nangong Shulan’s daughter might be as precious as gold, but Li Zhaodi would not want her anymore. If her husband’s family knew that the Qins wanted their son to join their household, they would probably beat Li Zhaodi to death.

“In my eyes, my daughter is worth her weight in gold.” Nangong Shulan looked at the woman with contempt. How dare this woman come before her and act so arrogant?

“Fine, your family’s threshold is too high for us to reach.” Li Zhaodi stood up angrily, left a remark, and left without looking back. She almost collided with Mrs. Qin who was coming in with water.

...
“Shulan, what happened to her?” Nangong Shulan hurriedly took the tray from her mother-in-law as soon as she saw her.

“She is a toad who wants to eat swan meat,” Nangong Shulan jokingly told her mother-in-law the truth.

“What happened?” Mrs. Qin asked, not understanding.

“She wants Lele to marry into their family.” Nangong Shulan then told her mother-in-law about their conversation.

“This woman really dares to think big. Since when have our Qin family’s children become so cheap?” Mrs. Qin also became angry. Even though Yu Xiu wasn’t her Qin family’s biological child, she never treated her poorly, let alone Lele, who is her own granddaughter.

“Exactly, she thinks her family in the city is so superior. She probably has too high of an opinion of herself, not knowing that there are many families better than hers. Our Lele is such an outstanding child; how can we just let her family take advantage of her? I hope Lele can study well and bring glory to the Qin family.” Nangong Shulan’s older two children had to drop out of school due to a lack of money. She believed her youngest daughter would cherish this opportunity.

So, Nangong Shulan believed that what the woman had just said about Lele and her son being in love was all false. But just to be on the safe side, she would still ask her daughter about it tomorrow. However, the plan had to change. She would let her husband take care of the shop and go see her daughter herself. After all, it was better for her as the mother to discuss such matters with her daughter.

“That’s right. We won’t mention this matter before Lele finishes college.” Mrs. Qin agreed with her daughter-in-law’s words. They wanted their granddaughter to go to college. No one from the entire Qin village had ever become a college student. The highest level of education in the village belonged to the three Qin children.
