Chapter 1441: It Was All for Their Good
âIâve already asked around about that Jiang girl. Do you know what her family is like?
âEven if her family situation was normal, I wouldnât be so against it. But she was born in a family with gamblers, and she has a younger brother who was arrested several times for theft. How can I accept such a family?
âIâve groomed such an outstanding son. Even if he doesnât find someone of equal social status, he canât find someone like this, right? You canât let him find any woman just because Shixiu is willing to have a girlfriend.
âIâd rather Shixiu remain single than date someone like her.
âAnyway, I wonât agree to Shixiu dating that Jiang girl.â
âYou donât agree?â The Old Madam sneered. âShangguan Wenpei, do you think your two sons will listen to you? If you donât agree, theyâll listen to you and find someone youâre satisfied with?
âI advise you that since you canât change some things, you might as well change your mindset and try to accept it slowly.
âOtherwise, you wonât be able to get anything in the end. You and Ah Si are already in this state, havenât you figured it out yet?
âYouâll only be satisfied if your two sons break up with you?
âI donât think youâre stupid. Why are you so stubborn about this? Yes, Iâm not satisfied with the girlâs background. Are the two children satisfied?â
Madam Mo pursed her lips and kept quiet for a while before saying firmly, âNo matter what, I wonât let my son marry such a woman. Mom, donât persuade me. I gave birth to my son. I just canât accept it.
âShixiu is someone whoâs going to do big things in the future. If heâs chosen, do you think that girl Jiangâs family background is suitable to be the woman by his side? Even if Shixiu doesnât find someone of equal social status, it canât be too bad. Mom, donât worry about this anymore. I know what to do.â
Old Madam looked at her stubbornness and sneered. âAlright, I donât care anymore. I canât be bothered to say anything about you in the future. Just donât cry to me when you regret it.â
âI wonât regret it,â Madam Mo said stubbornly. âEverything Iâve done is for their own good. Itâs alright even if they donât understand me now. Theyâll understand one day.â
âAt the end of the day, what you care about is family background. But the world is unpredictable. Back then, you only wanted to matchmake Ah Si and Shen Rou because you felt that the Shen and Mo families were compatible. But whatâs the situation with the Shen family now? Would you still want Ah Si to marry the Shen familyâs daughter?
âYouâre against Mianmian because you think her family background is too ordinary. But now that sheâs the apple of the Bai familyâs eye, sheâs the most compatible with Ah Si. Are you satisfied now? Youâve already hurt the harmony in the family. Family harmony is everything. To me, thereâs nothing more important than family harmony. Think about it yourself. This is the last time Iâm saying this to you.â
With that, Old Madam got someone to help her leave.
Madam Mo stood rooted to the ground with a complicated expression.
She was still thinking about what Old Madam said.
In the past, Shen Rou was her favorite daughter-in-law.
She watched Shen Rou grow up. The two families knew each other well and their families were compatible. There was no woman more suitable for her son than Shen Rou.
