Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Watching the angry back of Su Junshu, which clearly showed the stoop and shuffle of old age, Jiang Yun shook her head.

"Lu Jiang, you don’t need to worry." Sitting in the car on the way home, Jiang Yun, seeing Lu Jiang’s furrowed brow, offered some comfort, "This situation, no matter where you tell it, it’s Lao Su who is being unreasonable. You were right to refuse."

Lu Jiang sighed, "Why did he fixate on Xibao?"

Jiang Yun was not surprised and said, "It’s completely normal, given Lao Su’s character."

"Normal? Does a normal person insist on a betrothal when the child is just ten years old? Back then, when the veteran in Luo Cheng wanted to arrange a childhood betrothal between Luo Peng and Fubao under the guise of a life-saving favor, it was half-serious and half-joking. We refused, and they weren’t upset." Nothing like now, where rejecting Su Junshu feels like not understanding social courtesy.

Jiang Yun leaned back and said, "One, you hold a high position as a military commander at a young age, and in another two years will surely advance further, which no one doubts; two, Xibao is smart and pretty, having a father like you, along with close ties with old leaders, and our connected friends and relatives. In time, he will surely surpass you; three, those better than Xibao aren’t advantaged like Xibao, and those with better backgrounds than Xibao aren’t as talented. Families that are good in both respects would not consider Su Jiaojiao. Lao Su simply can’t contend with stronger families, so naturally, he set his sights on Xibao."

Lu Jiang sneered, "Our foundation is shallow, and yet it seems like it’s our fault."

"Selfish people often push all responsibility onto others and feel completely innocent themselves; if others don’t agree with them, they see it as someone else’s fault, and never look for reasons within themselves." After saying this, Jiang Yun frowned and sighed, "Lao Su really has aged. To use a trick like a childhood betrothal to tie your family to the Su Family — only he could think of this."
