Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space - Chapter 777

Chapter 777: Chapter 771: Li Zhaodi Comes to Visit
 

After the couple bought some things and returned home, they saw many people standing at their doorstep, which made them very puzzled, not knowing what had happened.

“Make way.” Qin Lei pushed his bike into the crowd.

“Ah, Qin Lei and Shulan are back.” Dazui’s loud voice called out, and a path appeared in the crowd.

“What’s going on?” Nangong Shulan asked, looking at the situation at home.

“I don’t know. She came here and hasn’t left, saying she has something to discuss with you.” Mrs. Qin had come today to feed the chickens and pigs for her younger son. When she finished and was about to lock the door to go home, this woman arrived and had been waiting for several hours. She wouldn’t leave no matter what Mrs. Qin said, and just stood there waiting.

“Excuse me, is there something you need?” Nangong Shulan looked at this woman, feeling that there was something strange about her.

“Are you Qin Jiale’s mother?” Nangong Shulan looked at this woman after hearing her words, not knowing what she meant.

“Yes, let’s go inside and talk.” Nangong Shulan said, and then went into the house first.

“Mom, do we have hot water at home?” Nangong Shulan asked her mother-in-law.

“Yes, go in and rest for a while, I’ll bring it to you.” Mrs. Qin knew that her son and daughter-in-law had been working hard lately, so she was happy to help.

“Thank you, mom.” Nangong Shulan smiled at her mother-in-law.

“Come in and sit down.” Nangong Shulan looked at the woman.

“Doesn’t seem that great.” Li Zhaodi muttered under her breath as she looked at the Qins’ house. Although her words were quiet, Nangong Shulan still heard her as she passed by. Nangong Shulan raised her eyebrows, wondering what that was supposed to mean—there was no need for this woman to judge her family’s home.

“Sit down, what can I help you with?” Nangong Shulan asked straightforwardly.

“I don’t have any particular problem. I just want to talk to you about the matter between our Jiabao and your Qin Jiale.” Li Zhaodi raised her chin slightly.

“Your Jiabao?” Nangong Shulan had never heard this name before.

“Yes, our Jiabao. He has taken a liking to your Qin Jiale and asked me to come and propose marriage.” Li Zhaodi thought to herself, not knowing what was so good about their Qin Jiale that she could seduce male classmates at such a young age. But her son liked her, and if she didn’t come, her son would threaten her by not eating. She was left with no choice.

Yesterday, after her son came home, he asked her to propose marriage to their family. So, she had no choice but to come today because she didn’t know how her son would behave if he came home tonight and she hadn’t yet done so.

“Wait, what? Propose marriage?” Nangong Shulan was startled. Her Lele was still so young and still in high school but someone was already proposing marriage? Was there something wrong with this person’s brain?

“Yes, our Jiabao and your Qin Jiale are classmates. He said he likes your Qin Jiale and insisted that I propose marriage. I think that girl is indeed very pretty, so I came. Don’t worry, our Jiabao is handsome, more than enough to be a match for your daughter.” In Li Zhaodi’s eyes, her son was the most handsome person in the world.

However, she never considered that what she found attractive, others might not, especially when their daughter was still so young.

“No, no, my daughter is still in school. She’s so young, I haven’t planned on having her get married or anything. Please go back, there’s nothing to discuss.” Nangong Shulan wanted to grab a broom and chase the woman away. What kind of nonsense was this? And to speak in such a condescending tone, as if her son was so great and her daughter wasn’t good enough.

“Don’t be like that, we’re from the city. My husband and I both have stable jobs, your daughter won’t lose out by marrying into our family.” Li Zhaodi confidently thought that by saying this, Nangong Shulan would agree to her request.
