The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 528: A Survival Guide for Women in the Old Republic of China (67)

Hearing what Cao Wanning said, Song Chengjing's heart suddenly lit up with hope. He felt that the matter seemed to have taken a turn for the better!

So he immediately revealed some unknown inside stories of the Song family to Cao Wanning.

It turned out that the Song family was now headed by Old Man Song, and this marriage would be a success as long as Old Man Song approved.

In addition, since Song Chengjing gradually took over the family business, his parents' control over him has been greatly reduced.

More importantly, according to a fortune teller, Song Chengjing is destined to be lonely all his life, and his marriage is up to fate and cannot be forced.

Su Yanqing, who has always believed in science, didn't quite believe what Song Chengjing said.

However, these words just hit the sore spot for Cao Wanning, who firmly believed in fate. She, who had originally been resolute and strongly opposed, now began to seriously consider the possibility of this matter.

Su Weichen, who had remained silent, was secretly thinking in his heart: This is the Song family, a huge family that is involved in both politics and business.

When the late Qing government was still in existence, the Song family was the imperial merchant.

The family foundation is much deeper than that of the Su family.

Most businessmen are rich but not noble, but the Song family is different. They are both wealthy and have status. Su Weichen has also heard that the Song family secretly controls the army, otherwise their business would not be so smooth.

In his opinion, this marriage was a complete overreach for the Su family.

But this matter cannot be rushed. Su Weicheng gave his wife Cao Wanning a look, and then slowly said to Song Chengjing: "Chengjing! No matter what, this lifelong event is not something that a little kid like you can decide on your own."

When Song Chengjing heard Su Weicheng's address to him, a smile flashed in his eyes. It seemed that he was attracted by his family background.

"Uncle Su, you are right." Song Chengjing said while the iron was hot, "Regarding this marriage, I can ask my grandfather to come to the Su family to discuss it with the two elders."

"How come it's already a marriage!" Su Yanqing said loudly with an unhappy face, "We haven't agreed to it yet!"

However, before Song Chengjing could explain anything, Su Weicheng interrupted his son and said, "Your sister's marriage is not your turn to make the decision. This is a matter between the parents of both parties.

Besides, what's wrong with being twelve? In the past, people even arranged marriages when they were children! Now it's just a possibility of engagement, but as for marriage, we have to wait until your sister turns eighteen before we can consider it."

"Yes, Brother Yanqing, don't worry." Song Chengjing explained hurriedly, "If we have this relationship, we can take care of each other when we go abroad together in the future, right?"

When Cao Wanning heard this, his attitude changed slightly.

In fact, after careful consideration yesterday, she was no longer as resistant to her daughter going abroad as before.

However, she is still worried about how to deal with her daughter's future marriage.

At this moment, although the marriage mentioned by Song Chengjing made Cao Wanning feel a little sudden, it was also a way to solve the problem.

"Cheng Jing! How about this! Let us think about it." Su Weicheng was very easygoing, "And we always have to ask Xiao Ran."

Then he asked his son Su Yanqing to send Song Chengjing back to his room in the Su family, while he needed to discuss the matter with his wife Cao Wanning.

Su Yanqing nodded and took Song Chengjing away from the meeting hall.

He had just walked a few steps out when he got mad: "Okay! Mr. Song, I treat you as a brother, but you want to be my brother-in-law. My sister is only twelve years old, how dare you think of that?"

"Brother Su, this is just a temporary solution." Song Chengjing pretended to be helpless and said, "This is the best solution I can think of. As long as this problem is solved, Xiaoran can go abroad with you."

At this time, Song Chengjing changed his previous tone and replaced "we" with "you".

Su Yanqing felt that it was much more pleasing to the ear than before, but he was still confused: "So you mean, this marriage is fake?"

"Brother Su really loves to joke." Song Chengjing laughed, "How can a marriage be true or false? This engagement is an engagement. Don't worry, I will take good care of Xiaoran in the future."

"Okay! You are still targeting my sister." This time, Su Yanqing was sure of the other party's purpose.

Almost immediately he started chasing Song Chengjing, and the two of them ran several laps in the yard. Even though Su Yanqing was exhausted and out of breath, he had no intention of giving up.

"Brother, what are you doing?" As the two were chasing each other, Su Xiangran's voice rang out.

"Xiao Ran, you're here!" Song Chengjing immediately "rushed" to her, looked at her changing back into her usual jacket and skirt, frowned slightly and asked, "Are you used to wearing this dress?"

"It's okay. I wear this every year when I go home for the holidays." Su Xiangran turned around in a circle, "Brother Jing, does it look good?"
