After transmigrating, I became a mother of three?!
Chapter 62 Blind Date
Zeng Yunchen moved his shoulder slightly toward Tang Min so that Tang Min could lie in a comfortable position.
"Then when my mother reached marriageable age, many people started arranging marriages for her, but she was busy with family matters and had no time to meet anyone."
"So how did your dad and mom meet?"
"Their marriage was entirely arranged by their parents and through a matchmaker."
Tang Min looked at Zeng Yunchen with a puzzled expression, and Zeng Yunchen patted Tang Min's head.
"My mother was being pressured by everyone, so she told my grandfather that as long as they liked it, they didn't need to ask my opinion."
"what"
Tang Min's eyes widened. She had thought it was feudal dogma or her parents pressuring her to get married, but it turned out that the other person simply didn't have time and didn't want to meet her.
"And then your grandparents agreed?"
Zeng Yunchen smiled and said, "How could that be?"
Marriage is ultimately a matter between two people. The important thing is the two people who are getting married. No matter how much advice parents give their children, in the end, it is the two of them who will live together, and they still have to make their own decisions. Therefore, Zeng Yunchen's maternal grandparents did not agree with Zeng's mother's idea and insisted that she go and meet the person in person.
After that, Zeng Yunchen's mother would meet with someone almost every time she participated in an event, which meant going on blind dates.
Tang Min listened with great interest. She couldn't imagine that someone who was busy to death every day would still have time to go on blind dates.
So even though I've met many people, I only get a fleeting glimpse each time and never have the chance to get to know them in depth.
Days and months passed, but nothing progressed. Zeng Yunchen's mother continued to manage the company's business, and nothing changed.
"Oh, I see. Then your dad showed up and won your mom's heart," Tang Min said, shaking her head as she shared her guess.
Zeng Yunchen looked at her with affection, "Their meeting was entirely arranged by their parents."
Zeng Yunchen's maternal grandparents were getting really anxious because things weren't progressing. Later, through an acquaintance, they learned that the eldest son of the Zeng family in Yongcheng was handsome and had excellent manners.
The Zeng family was already a well-known and prominent family in Yongcheng at that time. Everyone had heard of the eldest son of the family. They knew he was a good person, but he was playful and didn't care about the family business.
Zeng Yunchen's maternal grandfather hesitated. His daughter was a very career-oriented person, and if her partner was too focused on enjoying the present, he worried that they would disagree and argue, which would be bad for everyone.
So at first, he didn't agree to meet Zeng Yunchen's father. It was only when Zeng Yunchen's grandfather learned that someone wanted to match his son with the Wang family's daughter that he inquired about the Wang family's situation. Once he found out, he was overjoyed.
He knew his own son's character best; he had no ambition and was always slacking off. But precisely because of this, he lacked someone to keep him in check. So, he tried his best to have someone mediate with the Wang family, which led to Zeng Yunchen's parents' blind date.
"I heard from my dad that when he and my mom went on a blind date, they had no idea that the other person was there for a blind date."
"Huh?" Tang Min's mind raced, but she couldn't figure it out.
“It was my maternal grandfather and paternal grandfather who set up this scheme. They invited both families and other relatives and friends to dinner, pretending it was a normal gathering, but it was actually a blind date arranged for my parents,” Zeng Yunchen said slowly, leaning against Tang Min.
"and after?"
"Later, the two realized something was wrong. At the entire dinner table, they were the only ones dressed differently from everyone else. When attending the party, they were both told that the party was very important and that they must dress formally."
"So, the only ones at the dinner table were the two of them, all dressed in sharp suits and adorned with jewels?"
Haha, um.
This was a blind date scene that Tang Min hadn't expected. She usually only saw such scenes in TV dramas. Who would have thought that someone in real life would actually do something like this because of their child's marriage?
I don't know whether art originates from life, or whether life is a part of art.
"and then?"
"And then, they got together, right?"
"Love at first sight?!" Tang Min sat up abruptly from Zeng Yunchen's arms. It was love at first sight again.
In this world, is falling in love at first sight a skill everyone needs? Are the people here really that emotionally complex?
Zeng Yunchen was puzzled by Tang Min's reaction. "Yeah, what's wrong?"
"N-nothing," Tang Min shook her head, secretly noting down the number of couples she was currently dealing with who had fallen in love at first sight. She wanted to see if she would encounter another couple who had fallen in love at first sight.
"Wasn't the Zeng family managed by your uncle before? How did it end up here with you?"
According to Zeng Yunchen, his father didn't like managing the business, and his grandfather often took Zeng Yunchen's uncle out for social engagements. Zeng Yunchen's mother, meanwhile, was busy managing the Wang family business and probably didn't have much time to deal with the Zeng family's affairs.
Zeng Yunchen sighed. This all started a long time ago.
Tang Min nudged Zeng Yunchen's shoulder. "Then let's get straight to the point!"
"Anyway, Uncle's ambitions have grown. He wants to strip us of our rightful inheritance rights and is trying every means to take back the shares that should rightfully belong to us, which is why Mom took action."
Zeng Yunchen's single sentence clearly explained the entire storyline that followed.
In the end, it was just a competition for family property between brothers; there was no winner or loser, only that some people were dissatisfied.
"So that's why your uncle keeps causing you trouble, because he feels that your mother took away what rightfully belonged to him?"
"Well, actually, if Uncle hadn't been so persistent, Mom wouldn't have gone to such extremes," Zeng Yunchen said, sounding somewhat dejected.
When he was a child, he didn't understand why his uncle, who had been so affectionate towards him before, had suddenly become so cold and distant.
"Sigh," Tang Min patted Zeng Yunchen's arm, silently comforting him.
She had only seen competition between large families on television, but that was just television, and she didn't know what the real situation was like.
However, judging from Zeng Yunchen's appearance, he is probably very heartbroken. After all, one second he was his closest and dearest person, and the next second he regarded him as an enemy. Anyone would need a long time to accept and process this.
After a while, Zeng Yunchen sat up straight and continued talking about the Zeng family.
"You should know a little about what your uncle did afterward from what happened at Li Ping's house last time."
Tang Min nodded, "Mm."
"Although we've been engaged in open and covert struggles for the past few years, neither of us has suffered a loss, nor has anyone benefited from it. My thought is that as long as my uncle doesn't go too far, I'm willing to keep going with him like this."
"Can it be done?"
"How will you know if you don't try?" Zeng Yunchen patted Tang Min's head again. His Minmin was sometimes so innocent that she didn't seem like someone from a prestigious family.
