Chapter 1773: Get Married Immediately
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“If you really don’t want to get married, we won’t stop you. But you have to go and explain this matter to He Ning yourself. We won’t do it for you! Even then, don’t even think about that young girl! That girl is more of a perfect match for your younger brother. You’ve already been married so many times, why will the girl like you!” You Yu said disdainfully.
“Mother! Why are you so biased! l… I’m still in my prime now! Why am I not worthy! Why are you so biased towards my younger brother!” Huang Quan complained.
“You don’t have a choice! Settle the engagement with the Tan family this month! Get it done!” Huang Zhong said sternly.
“Why should I accept a woman whom Xia Wen doesn’t want! Haven’t you heard the rumors! You still want me to marry such a woman! Won’t that embarrass our Huang family?” Huang Quan said unhappily.
People said that Tan Jing was a jinx and that ever since she married into the Xia family, the family had faced non-stop trouble. They also said that she even tried to poison her sister-in-law’s children and that she was infertile, among other things.
However, these were just rumors. The Xia family had already come forward to clarify that Tan Jing was not what the rumors said, but no one believed what the Xia family said.
“That’s because Xu Lan doesn’t know how to discipline her daughter-in-law! See how I’ll deal with her after she enters our family! I’ll beat her into submission if I have to!” You Yu said proudly.
You Yu was especially satisfied with Tan Jing precisely because Tan Jing could not have children. This way, Tan Jing would have to take good care of Huang Quan t s two sons wholeheartedly. His two sons were like the devils incarnate and most people could not handle them at all. After Huang Quan t s wives died, his two sons stayed with their grandparents, causing the two elders to develop migraines.
However, no matter what, they were still part of the Huang family’s bloodline. The continuity of the Huang family’s bloodline depended on them in the future! They must be well taken care of!
Huang Quan stopped arguing with his parents. It was useless to say anything more about this matter. He would never give up on Qiao Mei. Since he could not check on the license plate number, he would find another way! He must get Qiao Mei. Only a beautiful woman with a good family background like her was worthy of him, not just any normal woman.
Huang Quan continued to do whatever he wanted and secretly carried on investigating Qiao Mei in Lian City. However, all the investigators he sent out did not manage to find any useful information and he was about to run out of patience.
Qiao Mei and Qian’e left Lian City the next day. When Huang Quan did not come to pick Tan Jing up to go back to the capital, she went to the Huang family’s old residence.
“Knock, knock, knock…
“Who is it?” You Yu came to the door and opened it. When she saw Tan Jing, she said in surprise, “Oh my! It’s Xiao Jing! Why didn’t you tell us in advance that you are coming? We haven’t prepared anything!’
“It’s fine, Auntie. We’re going to be a family soon. There’s no need to stand on ceremony,” Tan Jing said with a smile.
After Tan Jing paid more than 500 dollars for the meal at the restaurant, she did not have any spare cash to buy gifts, so she only brought some fruits with her. You Yu accepted the fruits and then placed them on the shoe cabinet at the door. She gave the housekeeper a look to tell her to throw them out quickly. How could this woman have the cheek to bring such cheap things into their house.
At first, Huang Quan was sitting in the living room and watching television. When he saw Tan Jing, he wanted to go back to his bedroom. He felt annoyed whenever he saw Tan Jings face now. Coupled with the fact that his family kept urging him to get married, he felt even more frustrated.
Tan Jing walked quickly to Huang Quan t s side and said, “l have something to tell you.”
Huang Quan brought Tan Jing to the study. He sat on the chair nonchalantly and said, “What a rare guest. I invited you to our house previously, but you never wanted to. Now, you actually take the initiative to come looking for me. Tell me, what exactly do you want to tell me?”
In the past, in order to raise her status, she had always pretended to be prim and proper. However, now that she knew that Huang Quan was no longer interested in her, she would be a fool to continue acting prim and proper.
“l just want to make a trip to the capital with you. My family has asked me when I’m going back,” Tan Jing said with a smile.
“l don’t know. If you’re in such a hurry, you can take the train back first,” Huang Quan said impatiently.
Tan Jing did not look angry to hear that. She looked at Huang Quan tenderly and said, “There’s something I need to go back and handle. I have a cousin who’s going to take the college entrance examination soon and I want to go back and check on her schoolwork. After all, I used to work at Capital
University..”
