Chapter 1450: Chapter 1450: Preventing Problems Before They Arise 6

After lunch at the old leader’s house, the old leader asked Xibao to stay.

Secretary Zhang was very happy, as Xibao could persuade the old leader well. Today, the old leader didn’t smoke and opted for a lighter meal.

When Tianjun’s father and Wang Cuilan learned that Xibao had not returned, the latter sighed, "The old leader really likes Xibao and takes care of everything thoroughly. Over the past year, indeed, many people have hinted at wanting to arrange child marriages."

"We cannot agree to any of them, absolutely not," Feng Qingxue said firmly.

Wang Cuilan nodded, "Of course, our children must grow up before they can consider marriage." How would children understand what love is? How would they understand the responsibilities of marriage? Adult decisions cannot ensure a child’s future happiness.

"Absolutely!" Jiang Xiaoyue agreed, "A child might seem fine when they’re young, but who knows what they’ll turn into when they grow up? Just like Li Jun, I grew up with him, didn’t I? It’s said ’Know the face but not the heart.’ Even after marrying Su Lanfang, he flirted with a woman from the cultural troupe, angering Su Lanfang so much that she had stomach pains and was rushed to the hospital. She had a premature baby who didn’t survive, supposedly a boy, weighing only about four pounds. It almost broke Su Lanfang’s heart. She cried her eyes out and her postpartum recovery was terrible."

Feng Qingxue raised an eyebrow, "Is that so?"

Unexpectedly, after Li Jun married Su Lanfang, similar incidents to the past happened again, showing that old habits die hard.

"Yeah, although this matter hasn’t spread publicly, many in the compound know about it. They even encouraged Su Lanfang to be forgiving towards Li Jun, saying that a husband and wife are one, and if anything happens to Li Jun, it would reflect poorly on Su Lanfang too. They claimed that Li Jun was momentarily bewitched and would soon return to his senses and treat Su Lanfang wholeheartedly. My father and brother-in-law are very grateful that my father didn’t arrange a child marriage for me, and I met Tianjun." Jiang Xiaoyue still shudders at the thought of child marriages.

Wang Cuilan frowned, "Ye Qing speaks and acts quite well, how come his family is like this?"

Jiang Xiaoyue waved her hand nonchalantly, "Grandma Cuilan, Ye Qing behaves properly in front of you because my aunt once saved his grandson’s life. Of course, he would be polite to our family. In the matter of Li Jun and Su Lanfang, which parents do not support their own son and instead support their daughter-in-law? Even if their son is utterly vicious, they still side with him. In their eyes, a daughter-in-law is an outsider. Only Su Lanfang, such a foolish woman, endured such grievances and still harbored illusions about Li Jun, hiding the real reasons for the early labor from her family. Of course, the Su Family being in disarray is also one of the reasons no one stood up for Su Lanfang."

Jiang Xiaoyue felt a bit disappointed in Su Lanfang, and everyone sighed.

"Xiaoyue, when you and Tianjun are in the compound and the military, keep an eye on Xiaoyun’s situation and don’t let her be bullied. If anyone covets her, tell me and your uncle," Feng Qingxue said as she pushed some sweet and sour preserves towards Jiang Xiaoyue, "She’s my only sister, who is like a daughter to me."

Jiang Xiaoyue said, "I actually have something to tell uncle and aunt. My aunt has grown more beautiful, surpassing the former Bai Xue in looks, sweet in voice and song. Some daredevil is pursuing her."
