Chapter 271: 087: A Match Made in Heaven_3

Mother Sun nodded.

Lin Guimei squinted her eyes. Grandma Gui’s son, Gui Mingtao, was around 48 years old this year and exceptionally handsome. With a good family background, he married the belle of Qing City University back in the day, which was a highly enviable match.

It was precisely because Sun Dingbang saw Gui Mingtao marrying such a university beauty that he wanted to find himself a pretty wife, and at that time, Lin Guimei was the beauty of their class.

One fancied beautiful women.

The other wanted to marry a local.

One thing led to another and they ended up together, until an unexpected pregnancy occurred.

But what does Gui Mingtao have to do with Lin Guixiang?

Lin Guimei was puzzled and asked, "How has Brother Mingtao been doing in Country M over these years? How many children does he have now?"

"He’s been divorced for over a decade now, where would he get children from?"

Divorced!?

Upon hearing this, Lin Guimei’s eyes widened, and an ominous thought suddenly crossed her mind.

Could it be that Grandma Gui was trying to set up Lin Guixiang with Gui Mingtao?

That’s out of the question!

That’s just absurd.

In Lin Guimei’s view, it was bad enough that Lin Guixiang was a country girl who couldn’t recognize a single character, how could she possibly be worthy of Gui Mingtao?

Even though Gui Mingtao was divorced, he was still a catch.

Firstly, he was a local from Qing City, and secondly, he held a green card from Country M.

In terms of status, education, and background, Lin Guixiang and Gui Mingtao were from two different worlds.

Moreover, the Gui Family was very wealthy, at least wealthier than the Sun Family.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have migrated to Country M ten years ago.

Eighteen years ago, Gui Mingtao was someone she herself couldn’t hope to marry.

What was Lin Guixiang, then?

Lin Guimei looked at Mother Sun and tentatively asked, "So... Mom, are you thinking of setting up my older sister with Brother Mingtao?"

"Mhm." Mother Sun nodded.

With this confirmation, Lin Guimei’s eyes bulged even wider.

This, this isn’t mismatching mandarin ducks, is it?

Grandma Gui had never really liked Lin Guixiang, nor did she think highly of her, so why would she suddenly want to introduce Lin Guixiang to Gui Mingtao?

These two people were simply not suitable for each other.

She would never agree to this marriage.

Lin Guimei squinted her eyes, "Mom, you’re also aware of my older sister’s background. She not only can’t read, but she also has a child. Brother Mingtao, after all, is a talented graduate and has experience studying abroad. Even though he’s divorced, he wouldn’t stoop to..." to settle for a country woman, right?

Especially for someone like Lin Guixiang, who has nothing and comes from the countryside.

Someone as outstanding as Gui Mingtao rightfully deserves better.

At this point, Lin Guimei hesitated, then added, "With my older sister in her current state, even if Brother Mingtao really took a fancy to her, they wouldn’t have anything in common, right? Their relationship wouldn’t last."

She certainly didn’t want Lin Guixiang to marry Gui Mingtao.

Why should she?

She had spent so much time to successfully marry into the Sun Family, settle in Qing City, and obtain everything she had today, while Lin Guixiang could just marry Gui Mingtao without doing anything!

That was too unfair.

Mother Sun glanced at Lin Guimei, seeing through all her little schemes.

Her daughter-in-law seemed to have forgotten her own roots, hadn’t she?

Mother Sun’s face was filled with sarcasm, which she barely bothered to conceal, and presently she continued, "Your Grandma Gui’s family experienced some troubles a few years back."

"What kind of troubles?" Lin Guimei quickly asked.

Even if there had been troubles, they didn’t need to resort to finding someone like Lin Guixiang, did they?

She didn’t understand what Grandma Gui was thinking.

If Lin Guixiang were truly her own sister, that would be one thing; as a younger sister, she should indeed lend a hand.

But as it stood...

Lin Guixiang had no relation to her, so why should she help Lin Guixiang?

Lin Guixiang simply didn’t deserve it.

When mentioning old family matters, Mother Sun couldn’t help but sigh, "Mingtao had a car accident and is now somewhat disabled in both legs. These years, it’s been your Grandma Gui alone caring for him. As she’s getting old, she inevitably feels the strain, so she’s been thinking of finding someone to keep Mingtao company, lest after your Grandma Gui passes, Mingtao is left all alone."

Shocked at this revelation, Lin Guimei exclaimed, "He had a car accident? Is it serious?"

"Quite serious." Mother Sun nodded again.

Lin Guimei was still confused. Given the Gui Family’s wealth, Gui Mingtao having an accident shouldn’t mean they had to settle for an uncouth country woman.

Someone like Lin Guixiang wouldn’t even be hired as a nanny by Qing City folks these days.

After all, even nannies are expected to be literate now.

Lin Guimei continued, "Does Grandma Gui know about my older sister’s situation?"

She hoped Grandma Gui wasn’t acting impulsively.

Grandma Gui was known for her shrewdness; how could she possibly tolerate a country daughter-in-law who knew nothing and also came with a child in tow?
