Chapter 597 - 595 I Disagree!
Wang Yongan’s face stiffened, and he forced a smile, "Father, Mother, Little Sister! Last night, I thought it over carefully and still feel that this split of the family assets was not done properly, it’s unfair to Father, Mother, and Little Sister! I’ve considered it, it was I who wronged the family in the past, and since I was not there for the division, the least I can do is to make amends."
"Mother also said yesterday that after I left, it was all thanks to Little Sister that our family was held together. Little Sister is the family’s greatest contributor. But when it came to division, how could we burden an unmarried girl with the care of our elderly Mother?"
"Now that I have a better life, and have settled down in the county town, it’s definitely better than here in these remote hills. It would be best if I atone for my faults; without further ado, let Father, Mother, and Little Sister be taken care of by me! The support for Father and Mother in their old age, as well as Little Sister’s marriage affairs, I will take it all upon myself."
"Let’s put aside the rest, as for Little Sister’s marriage, what good family can there be in these remote hills? After the New Year, come with us to the county town, and I, your Second Brother, guarantee to find you a good marriage match, which is surely better than marrying some country bumpkin?"
"Father, you agree, right?" He finished and looked at Wang Laozhu.
Initially, Wang Laozhu was quite pleased as he listened, his second son knew his mistakes and had come back, even taking the initiative to propose to support both his old man and old woman, as well as their young daughter – this is proper talk!
Such a family division suited his wishes; there was no need to separate from his wife, and there was the matter of his daughter’s marriage.
Wang Laozhu looked up to see his daughter standing behind him with Song Chongjin’s scowling face, and his mouth turned bitter. In a rush, he said, "That’s a good sentiment you have there, but there’s no need for you to worry about your sister’s marriage! She’s already betrothed, and we’re just waiting for a good day for the wedding ceremony!"
Wang Yongan’s eyes narrowed instantly, "When did this happen? Why don’t I know about it? Who is she betrothed to?" He fired off a series of questions one after the other.
Song Chongjin stepped forward with a dark face, "The man Yongzhu is betrothed to is me, what, do you have a problem with that?"
Wang Yongan was flabbergasted, "Why is it you again?"
