Chapter 6: Daughter-in-Law Comes Knocking
"You, always so impulsive, do you want the neighbors to avoid us from now on?"
Once inside the house, Song Xiaoru scolded Song Xiaodong, but her eyes were still filled with deep relief. Although her brother was mischievous and everyone was afraid of him, she knew very well that Song Xiaodong’s care and love for her were absolutely 120%.
Song Xiaodong still felt a bit displeased and said, "They think they can push you around because you are easygoing. People and horses alike are ridden because they are meek. Now that I’m back, I won’t let anyone bully you."
Song Xiaoru gave Song Xiaodong another look and said, "They are still our neighbors, and you can’t act like this anymore."
"Understood."
Seeing that Song Xiaodong didn’t really take it to heart, Song Xiaoru could only shake her head and asked, "Xiaodong, what are your plans now that you’re back?"
"Plans? I came back just to ensure you have a good life."
Song Xiaoru gave Song Xiaodong a look and said, "What good life? We still need to work. Money doesn’t just fall from the sky."
"Work... I’ll look for one later. I’ve been tired for so many years, I also want to rest and relax a bit," Song Xiaodong stretched lazily and collapsed on the bed.
"That’s true, rest well then. Once you’ve rested enough, find a job. Without a job, it’s hard to find a wife, too."
"Sis, stop bringing up finding me a wife. You’re even older than me by a year. If anyone should get married, it should be you first."
"I’m a woman; it’s just about finding someone to marry, but for you, a man, you need to have a house and a car, and a respectable job. How can I marry off without making sure you’re settled?"
