Chapter 643 Advantages Become Disadvantages (1)_1
"You old fool, isn’t this causing trouble? Muli has grown up under our watch; don’t you know his temperament? Would he deceive Baby? Even if someone else might deceive Baby, Muli wouldn’t. Muli isn’t stern-faced; he just has fewer expressions. Haven’t you once praised him for that, saying he’s steady and has presence? Moreover, when Muli is with Baby, he’s not like that at all."
"I don’t remember saying any of that. However, based on what you just said, it’s clear that Xiao Family’s kid is two-faced." Old Master Situ was adamant; Xiao Muli wasn’t worthy of his Baby.
Old Madam Situ was so angry at Old Master Situ’s words that she could only point at him, speechless: "You."
"Wife, don’t be angry. I’m serious, Baby is still so young now, I want to keep her at home for a few more years, I really can’t bear to let Baby leave home." Old Master Situ softened his tone.
"I didn’t say to marry Baby off right now either. I also want to keep Baby at home for a few more years, but even if we can’t bear to let her go, Baby will eventually have to marry someone. Rather than scrambling to find candidates later, it’s better to find a good match for Baby now." This woman had her own schemes as a woman.
"It doesn’t necessarily have to be that Xiao kid, though." Having heard what Old Madam Situ said, Old Master Situ felt it made some sense deep down, but whenever he thought about how Xiao Family’s kid dared to secretly covet their Baby, his heart hardened again.
"But Muli is suitable. Think about it, Muli’s home is close to ours, located in the same courtyard. Even after Baby gets married, we could see her every day. Muli’s household is also simple. Just his grandfather, his father, and his mother." Before Old Madam Situ finished speaking, Old Master Situ interrupted.
"Eh, wait a moment. This proximity you mention does make sense. Xiao Family may have a small household, but Muli’s parents are tough nuts to crack, especially his mother. She had arranged a fiancée for Mu Li herself, and though they broke it off later, she definitely won’t look kindly upon our Baby. Wife, just because of this, I will never agree; I don’t want Baby to suffer from her mother-in-law’s harassment in the future. In that case, I’d rather bring in a son-in-law for Baby." Having said this, Old Master Situ suddenly felt pleased, "This is a good idea; this way, there won’t be any mother-in-law troubles."
"What’s good about that? Do you think bringing in a son-in-law will turn out well? I’m not being prejudiced, but what are the chances a man willing to marry into another family will be promising? Even if he is promising, his family members might not be easy to deal with. True, Baby won’t have mother-daughter-in-law issues at her own home, but she’ll have to visit her in-laws eventually. What then? Moreover, think about it. Given our family’s and the Loo Family’s current standing and social status, we must be selective about our in-laws; we can’t pick someone who’ll drag us down. Otherwise, both our families could suffer because of them." Old Madam Situ looked at her husband, who was triggered by anything regarding their precious daughter, and while analyzing the situation for him, she helplessly shook her head.
