1302 Fall in Love Freely

“What’s the use of us commenting on the children’s affairs? As if they have ever listened to us,” Xu Lan said resignedly.

“Look at how your Xia Zhe has married such a good wife. You don’t know how envious I am! Xia Zhe is clever enough to want to get married immediately when he sees Qiao Mei. Otherwise, you won’t have such a good daughter-in-law!” Liu Fen said enviously.

Xu Lan was usually very humble, but when it came to talking about Qiao Mei, she would become very boastful. Those who did not know better would think that Qiao Mei was her biological daughter!

“That’s true! Our Qiao Mei is one of a kind! Not everyone has our kind of luck!” Xu Lan said smugly.

“Second Aunt-in-law, didn’t you say you want to find a wife for Xia Yuan? Have you found anyone suitable lately?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

At the mention of this matter, Liu Fen looked gloomy. This was not supposed to be a difficult matter. For some reason, their family’s Xia Yuan had suddenly become very popular. Even people who looked down on their family in the past had come to propose marriage. Distant relatives had suddenly popped up to recommend their daughters to marry into the family.

Many influential families wanted to introduce their daughters to Liu Fen. As long as they could marry their daughters to Xia Yuan, it did not matter what the conditions were. They were even willing to accept not getting any betrothal gifts!

Liu Fen was both happy and terrified. She knew that these people were not interested in Xia Yuan per se, but in his identity as the Xia family’s grandson who was born in the family of the second son. Seeing that the Xia family was rising up in the political, military and business worlds, these people were naturally very interested.

There were a few families whose daughters Liu Fen took a liking to, but Xia Yuan did not want to meet any of them and looked down on all of them. Was this not a slap on Liu Fen’s face? However, Liu Fen had no choice but to align with Xia Yuan.

She quickly looked for Xia Yao to discuss countermeasures, but Xia Yao was even more indifferent. He did not view Xia Yuan’s marriage as an important matter at all.

Xia Jun also told Liu Fen to relax as the children and grandchildren all had their own lives to live. There was no need to expect too much, otherwise, plans would only backfire. He told her to just let Xia Yuan make his own choice.

“I heard that there’s a girl from the Liang family called Liang Chun. Have you met her before, Second Aunt-in-law? How do you feel about her?” Qiao Mei asked.

Liu Fen had a troubled expression on her face as she said, “I guess she’s alright... I don’t really like this girl very much.”

“Second Aunt-in-law, please just do what you want. Actually, my grandfather has nothing to do with the Liang family. He really hates those people from the Liang family. I’m just thinking that you may like that girl! It’s even better if you don’t. This way, I won’t be stuck in a dilemma,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Liu Fen had thought that Qiao Mei wanted to grill her on this issue. She did not expect the relationship between the Qiao family and the Liang family to be so bad that it already could not be salvaged. This meant that the Liang family was previously unilaterally spreading all those rumors out there. It appeared that this Liang family was not one that was easy to deal with.

Liu Fen really did not like Liang Chun at all. All her scheming thoughts were so obvious to Liu Fen! She was just short of quickly writing the words “I am doing this because only because it is the Xia family” on her forehead! Moreover, Liang Chun was He Mei’s friend, so this was one more reason why she could not be allowed to enter the Xia family. If she did, there would not be any peaceful days in the future!

It was a good thing for a couple to fall in love freely but not too freely.

When Xia Wen heard about this matter, he agreed with Xia Jun’s point of view, though only half of it. On his day off, he took the chance to spend an afternoon with Xia Yuan so that they could have a good chat. Xia Wen told Xia Yuan everything that the Tan family had done all these years, with the intention of making him more alert.

Their family was supportive of allowing the family members to fall in love freely. Xia Yuan could definitely go ahead and be with a girl whose family background was not very good, but he must take a good and clear look at the characters of her family members first. Otherwise, Xia Wen’s experience was a very good example of the disaster that was waiting to happen! n0VeLUsb.C0m

Xia Yuan realized the severity of this issue and took note of what Xia Wen told him. Only then did Liu Fen stop worrying about this matter.

“Second Aunt-in-law, just let Xia Yuan find his own partner himself. Won’t you be happier if he willingly brings home a daughter-in-law to you one day?” Qiao Mei said.
