Quick Wear: The bad female supporting role, the male protagonist prefers

Chapter 143: Don’t Run Away, the Sucker of the 50s (17)

"Director Wang, you have to pay more attention to this matter!"

Mother Li smiled humbly, "Director Wang, how is my Mingyu?"

"He's a bit older, but he's more caring and steady. Mingyu is in the same military camp as your Shao Yan, so they can look after each other."

Mother Li praised her son to the skies and recommended him without reservation. She didn't notice the ugly looks from Wang Guifen and Gu Shutang opposite her at all and kept talking to herself.

She held up three fingers and said, "This is the amount of betrothal gift our family is giving. It's one hundred more than what we gave to the Zhao girl before."

Li's mother felt that her sincerity was enough and she was sure of victory. She was just waiting for Wang Guifen to agree.

But she ignored the fact that her son is now in his 60s and is considered an old bachelor. Normally, a man's children would help with housework by this age.

"Humph, our Shu Tang is still young and studying. There's no rush to get married. Your Li Mingyu can be our Atang's uncle. It's really not a good match."

It's shameless for an old man to still be thinking about his young daughter.

Wang Guifen picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip slowly. Her meaning was obvious: she was serving tea to the guest.

Gu Shutang also cooperated and lowered his head slightly. "My mother is right. I'm still young and there's no need to rush. Aunt Li, my parents will take care of my marriage for me. You should worry about Brother Li's marriage first."

"Other people at his age are already worrying about their children's education, but Brother Li is still single. Aunt Li, it's impossible for me and Brother Li to be together. You should find someone else for him."

Aunt Li really thinks too highly of her son. Not only does she care about a little girl, she also sets her sights on her in such a cruel way.

Li Mingyu is already in his thirties and she has just reached adulthood. Is this something a human being would do?

At this moment, Gu Shutang was in a subtle mood. He understood why Zhao Yongpan would rather follow the male supporting role and go to the countryside than settle for Li Mingyu.

He is a piece of trash who only knows how to hide behind his mother and silently accept the benefits his mother seeks for him, and he still has the nerve to think about a teenage girl!

"Yes, Sister Li, you should lower your standards and look for someone around Mingyu's age instead of always looking for young girls."

Mother Li's face turned ugly. Wasn't it obvious that she and the old man were responsible for her son's failure to find a wife for many years? Mother Li was so angry that she was shaking.

Hearing the thing she least wanted to hear, she subconsciously looked at her son, afraid that her son would follow the little bitch's thinking and blame them as parents.

Seeing that Li Mingyu kept his head down and didn't say anything, Li's mother felt relieved, thinking that Li Mingyu's attitude was the same as before.

What do they mean by a family of similar age? How can a woman in her thirties not be married? Isn't her statement clearly saying that her son is only worthy of being with a widow?

The more Mother Li thought about it, the angrier she became. If she hadn't had a bit of common sense left in her, knowing that she shouldn't use force, she would have started fighting like a shrew.

She cleared her throat and began to refute Gu Shutang: "Shutang, what you said is not right. It was obviously the Zhao family girl who ran away from marriage and caused Mingyu to become a single person."

"My Mingyu is not bad either. He's already a deputy company commander at a young age. If you marry him in the future, he won't make your life miserable."

"Shu Tang, you are an adult now, and you are studying at university. You should learn to think for yourself and stop relying on your family."

Seeing Gu Shutang's mocking smile, Mother Li looked embarrassed and her tone became heavier: "Shutang, you also know that you are just an adopted daughter of the Shen family. Director Wang and his family have their son to worry about, so it is inevitable that they will neglect you. You have to plan for yourself in advance."

Seeing that Li's mother still shamelessly wanted to continue discussing this ridiculous marriage at home, and was openly trying to sow discord between her and Atang in front of her, Wang Guifen was no longer polite.

"Sister Li, you must be confused. You are talking nonsense in my house."

"Atang is my daughter. She holds the same position in my heart as Shao Yan. I will naturally not treat her marriage unfairly. You don't need to worry about Atang here."

"Wang Guifen is just an adopted daughter. My family is asking for her hand in marriage because we think highly of her. Don't be ungrateful."

"I think I've made it clear. Your Li Mingyu is too old. He doesn't match our Atang. Standing together, they look like two generations apart. Li Suying, you should take your son back."

"Don't come to my house in the future. We don't welcome people with the surname Li."

"Why are you so arrogant? Wang Guifen, you're just relying on Director Shen's influence to show off to us."

"Auntie Li, are you angry because your marriage proposal failed? I advise you to hurry up and find a partner for Brother Li. If you're too late, you might not even have grandchildren."

Li Mingyu was so embarrassed after being scolded that he finally couldn't help it and dragged his mother, who was shaking with anger, away from the Shen family.

Gu Shutang could still hear Li's mother complaining about Li Mingyu taking her away in the house.

"Son, why did you pull me away? This bitch cursed you like that, and you just pulled me away?"

She had no way to vent her anger, and she felt very uncomfortable holding it in her heart.

……

"What kind of person is this? How dare she marry our Atang to her old and ugly son? She's really a toad wanting to eat swan meat."

Wang Guifen complained to Mr. Shen who had just returned. After Mr. Shen understood what had happened, he looked unhappy and found Gu Shutang in the room.

"Atang, don't believe what that crazy woman from the Li family says. You are our daughter. Your mother and I will definitely find a good family for you."

"Of course, if you meet a good classmate at school, you can bring him home to show your parents. As long as he treats you well, your parents won't object."

Father Shen was afraid that his well-behaved adopted daughter would be instigated by the crazy woman of the Li family and stop being close to them, so he quickly explained things to Gu Shutang.

"Dad, I know. Mom and Dad have always loved me very much. I won't become alienated from you just because of a few words from outsiders."

Gu Shutang's eyes were full of trust, which made Shen's father's brows soften. He urged his daughter to go downstairs, and he wanted to take his daughter and wife out to eat.

Although Wang Guifen scolded the Li family away, the Li family also sounded a wake-up call for her. She thought about it over and over again, and felt that none of the young men around her were worthy of her Atang.

She was already feeling a little worried, so she sent a telegram to Shen Shaoyan in the military camp, telling him what happened today and asking him to find some outstanding male comrades in the military camp for Gu Shutang.

When Shen Shaoyan received the telegram, his brows furrowed and he almost crumpled the paper in his hand into a ball.

No matter how dirty and smelly you are, you dare to covet his sister.

He wrote down Li Mingyu's name, anger surging in his heart. As for Wang Guifen's telegram mentioning that Gu Shutang should be on the lookout for gay men, Shen Shaoyan pretended not to notice it.
