Chapter 156: How about it? Are you so happy that you silly?
Some aunts think that Shen Shuyu is the most suitable son-in-law. With her overbearing personality, she wouldn't know how to bully other families if she married into another family.
Maybe she could even harm her parents-in-law. She is a girl from their Shenjiabao Brigade. If she does well, people may not praise her. If she does not do well, people will say that the girls from their Shenjiabao Brigade are no good. If her reputation is bad, then the reputation of all the girls from the Shenjiabao Brigade will also be bad.
Recruiting a son-in-law! What a great idea.
"Gui Fen, why don't you think about it again? Which good young man is willing to be your son-in-law these days?"
As soon as Old Lady Shen said this, some people wholeheartedly agreed with her finding a son-in-law for her granddaughter, while others advised her to think more about it.
What this person said is not wrong. Nowadays, as long as someone has a little self-respect and can earn a living, no one would be willing to be a live-in son-in-law unless it is absolutely necessary.
Why? Because I feel ashamed and can’t hold my head up.
In other families, the man is the head of the family, and the children born by the wife take the man's surname.
Not only does a son-in-law have no say in the family, but his children cannot take his surname. Who can stand this?
Of course, there are also people who think that there is nothing wrong with live-in sons-in-law, but those are shameless, idle, and useless young men at critical moments. The old couple of the Shen family don't like these people.
The old couple of the Shen family want to find a good son-in-law for their eldest granddaughter, but I'm afraid it's harder than climbing to the sky.
Old Lady Shen didn't care what everyone thought. She smiled and said, "Anyway, my sweet baby is going to find a son-in-law. Good food is never too late, and a good son-in-law is never too late.
If you have a good young man around you who is willing to be my son-in-law, you can come and tell me about the young man. I will consider it carefully. If he is a good match for my good boy, let the two children meet each other. "
No one responded to her words.
How to respond to this? Wang Guifen is talking about a good young man. Where can they find a good young man who is willing to be a son-in-law?
Even if there is one, it is not enough for the other party to be willing. He has to tell Wang Guifen about the young man's situation. Only when everything is suitable can he meet with Shu Yu girl.
Tsk, that’s how the emperor in ancient times would look for a prince consort for his princess.
Alas, if she is married off, the man doesn't know Shu Yu very well, and they all go against their conscience and praise Shu Yu in front of the man's family, and they can still marry this girl off.
Now that Wang Guifen is looking for a son-in-law, Shu Yu can just wait to become an old maid.
Who would be willing to sacrifice their dignity and become a son-in-law?
The news that the old couple of the Shen family wanted to find a live-in son-in-law for their granddaughter quickly spread throughout the Shenjiaba Brigade.
The Shenjiaba Brigade was really lively, with everyone from the 99th grade to the babies who could just talk being discussing this topic.
"I never expected that Shen Dazhu and Wang Guifen never planned to let their eldest granddaughter get married."
"You don't know, the old couple has requirements for the son-in-law."
"I don't know when the Shen family will be able to recruit a grandson-in-law."
Everyone was discussing enthusiastically. Uncle Shen and Zhang Cuicui came over to ask Dad and Mom as soon as they got back from work.
"Dad and Mom, are you really planning to find a husband for Shu Yu?"
Old Lady Shen was threading the needle while wearing her reading glasses. She looked up and glanced at her three sons and daughters-in-law. "How could what I said be false? Of course it's true."
"It's true, why didn't you tell us?"
My father and mother (my father-in-law and mother-in-law) kept it a secret so well that their son and daughter-in-law didn't know about it and had to hear it from outsiders.
How can I say this? I feel so depressed. My parents (and my parents-in-law) didn't tell them anything about this big thing.
They thought that the old couple didn't want their niece to get married too early and wanted to keep her at home for a year or two. They didn't think it was strange that they didn't arrange a wedding for their niece.
It turned out that it wasn't that he was reluctant to let his niece get married, but that he had never planned to let her get married.
Old Lady Shen smiled and said, "Isn't this just to give you a surprise? You always say that you treat my sweetheart as your own daughter.
If my sweetheart gets married, you uncles and aunts will definitely be reluctant to let her go.
Your father and I discussed it and decided not to let her get married.
Let her stay at home with you all the time! If she doesn't get married, you don't have to worry about her being bullied by her husband's family all day long. How about that? You're so happy, right? "
Uncle Shen and Zhang Cuicui: "..."
I was really happy!
The three brothers Shen Jiabao, Jiawei and Jiaguo were really happy that their younger sister didn't have to get married.
The three brothers said happily, "Grandpa and grandma, you are so wise. My elder sister lives at home. No matter who comes to our house, no one can bully her as long as we are here."
Old man Shen nodded, "Yes, you can think this way, which shows that you are a brother."
Shen Qiu played with the shoe awl and rolled his eyes, "Grandma and Grandpa, my elder sister can find a son-in-law, so when I reach the age in two years, can I also find a son-in-law?"
After the family was divided, the old couple did not intend to intervene in their son's room affairs. Old Mrs. Shen said, "As long as your parents agree, it's fine."
Shen Qiu looked at her parents expectantly. Li Caixia slapped her in the face and said, "We are talking about your eldest sister. Why are you meddling in this?"
It is not so easy to find a son-in-law. If you make a mistake in choosing the right one, the whole family may be wiped out.
Of course, her daughter has a brother, so her daughter can't be affected by the evil.
But it was hard to say for her eldest niece. Think about it, the second branch had taken advantage of the fourth branch over the years, and they had watched her eldest niece grow up.
Her heart was not made of stone, and she still hoped for the best for her. Li Caixia expressed her worries.
"Mom and Dad, there aren't many people willing to be a live-in son-in-law these days. What if someone comes with bad intentions and wants to take over the whole family?"
The first and third wives also had this concern. Uncle Shen said, "Second sister-in-law is right, Dad and Mom, why don't you consider the matter of recruiting a son-in-law?
Although our little girl Shu Yu has a bad personality and doesn't speak well, if she just stands there quietly and smiles, doesn't say anything, and doesn't do anything, she can still trick the silly boy into falling in love with her."
Old Man Shen and Old Lady Shen: “…” Why does the third brother’s words sound so unpleasant?
Liu Pandi felt relieved for once. Her man was not only harsh to her, but also to that damn girl Shen Shuyu.
Zhang Cuicui said what she was thinking, "Mom, with Shu Yu's personality, she won't suffer any loss if she gets married. If we really want to find a son-in-law, Shu Yu might be delayed..."
The three sons and daughters-in-law all expressed their opinions. In general, they were not very supportive of the old couple's proposal to find a son-in-law for Shen Shuyu.
If I bring back a troublesome thing for my niece, she will never have a happy life.
"Your father and I have considered what you said. These problems are not a big deal. We are not in a hurry to find a son-in-law. We can take our time. There will always be a suitable and reliable one.
Even if he is unreliable, it doesn’t matter. After entering our Shen family, how can he turn the world upside down? You uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters-in-law are not dead..."
