Chapter 542: Chapter 20 Matchmaking Banquet_2
He had just woken up and was still a bit dazed, not understanding the situation he was in. Seeing Shen Yinian’s excited face, he spoke weakly, “This ti… I am not… a traitor.”
Hearing his words, Lin Xiaoguai, Shen Yinian, and a tearfully overjoyed Zeng Wenxin were all taken aback. It took them a mont to understand his aning.
It turned out he was still dwelling on the past events up to now.
“How can you still rember such trivial things now?” Shen Yinian wanted to scold him, but as he spoke, his eyes began to redden.
Beside him, Zeng Wenxin choked up, “Son, you are your father’s pride.”
Hearing this, Zeng Yi grinned. Although his complexion was pale and he was still wearing a respiratory mask, his smile was exceptionally brilliant.
Lin Xiaoguai left the nourishnt supplents she had made for him and quietly slipped out.
She felt that both between Zeng Yi and his son, and with his father Zeng Wenxin, there needed to be such a private conversation.
After returning, Lin Xiaoguai ntioned the matter at the dinner table, and Shen Chi rarely admired, “This Zeng Yi is not bad.”
Qiao Shan was taking care of Shen Yinian in the hospital and was not at ho, but Little Zhilia was there. Upon hearing their conversation, he imdiately beca curious, “Did Uncle Zeng used to be a traitor?”
He frowned, looking troubled. He quite liked Uncle Zeng, but traitors seed like bad people…
Lin Xiaoguai laughed and softly recounted the past events. She concluded, “Everyone makes mistakes, especially when they are young. As long as it’s not irreparable, adults will tolerate children because they hope that children can correct their mistakes in ti.”
“Little Zhilia, you are the sa. You are still young, so you are allowed to make mistakes because every mistake ans an opportunity to correct it, an opportunity to avoid making a similar but bigger mistake in the future.”
“Your Uncle Zeng is the sa. He made a mistake initially, but this ti he fought a great battle to turn things around.”
Little Zhilia seed to understand, but Lin Xiaoguai didn’t insist on his understanding. As long as he rembered, that was enough.
When the quadruplets all graduated from university in 2012, Little Zhilia was also already a first grader carrying a backpack. Lin Xiaoguai had hoped that among them, soone would bring a girlfriend ho right after graduation like Shen Yinian did, and get married that year, but no one fulfilled her wish.
They dated in school, but ca back single each ti.
“Big brother, it’s all because you didn’t start off well, and now we’re all being disdained by Mom,” Gu Yijing complained.
Holding the remote control and changing channels, Shen Yinian was taken aback by this and said with a wry smile, “How can this be blad on ?”
“If you all made as worry-free as your big brother, that would be great,” Lin Xiaoguai said. She placed the cut fruits on the coffee table and glared at Gu Yijing.
Although the quadruplets didn’t bring any partners ho, the high-society ladies were all stirring with excitent. Lin Xiaoguai received similar salon and afternoon tea invitations daily, always encountering one or more accomplished young talents or elegant ladies by her side. Although she used to receive such invitations before, recently the frequency had increased…
Unfortunately, among those inviting her, so were due to social obligations she couldn’t refuse. After a while, Lin Xiaoguai grew tired of it and decided to host a party at ho to settle everything at once.
“Mom, aren’t you throwing us under the bus?” Shen Yiqiao complained discontentedly.
“I’ve been thrown under the bus by you all for so long, can’t I strike back?” Lin Xiaoguai glared at them and said, “I’m putting this upfront, if any of you are absent, don’t bla if I accidentally agree to so oral marriage arrangents.”
She finally understood why parents in novels and films are so eager to arrange blind dates for their children—if outstanding children don’t attend these etings, the parents themselves get bothered!
Better to take the initiative than to defend passively.
Shen Yiqiao was discontented, glaring back, but then t Shen Chi’s cool gaze.
She shivered and swallowed the words she was about to say. Well, faced with a biased father-in-law in favor of his wife, what could they do but swallow their complaints?
When the Shen family announced the party and emphasized that the four unmarried children would be responsible for the event, all the families summoned their eligible bachelors and bachelorettes back, mandating their attendance at the party.
Lin Xiaoguai felt relieved.
It was then that Zheng Cuicui ca to visit.
“Big sister, are you trying to matchmake for Sisi?” Lin Xiaoguai asked incredulously after hearing her out.
Zheng Cuicui nodded, sowhat awkwardly saying, “Not exactly a matchmaking. My nephew took a fancy to Sisi himself. Hearing that you were hosting a party, he ca to , seeking a close-up opportunity to win her over.”
“Your nephew… I rember Yingying doesn’t have a brother,” Lin Xiaoguai recalled.
“He’s my cousin’s son,” Zheng Cuicui whispered, “My relationship with that cousin is just average, but Wanwan, let be frank, her son is really good. He studied business managent abroad, is very handso, and has a great personality. His family’s situation definitely isn’t as good as yours, but it’s not bad either. Just one thing, his mother, my cousin, is a bit twisted. Although she’s not a bad person, she’s difficult to get along with.”
Lin Xiaoguai shook her head, “Forget it. Big sister, if you said Qiaoqiao, I might consider it. She’s straightforward and definitely won’t suffer in silence. But Sisi… She’s like , she endures until she can’t anymore, and I don’t want her to live a stifled life.”
Although she was planning to hold a matchmaking banquet, it didn’t an she would handle her children’s marriage affairs carelessly. (To be continued.
