Chapter 691: Chapter 691
"Mom, Li Zhibin is quite a good person. I asked him, with such good conditions, why he chose me? He told me he has a son and is worried about finding a stepmother who might not treat his son well, so he’s been afraid to remarry.
After meeting me, he felt I have a kind heart and am a good person, and surely wouldn’t treat his son like other women. He has no other request but hopes I can treat his son as my own.
Also, his younger siblings are not yet married and need his support. He’s made this very clear to me. Even though he earns a high salary, he still needs to support his family, and if he were to marry an average woman, she might not understand.
Because of these matters, couples often fight after marriage. He fears this trouble. That’s why he thinks I’m independent, earn well, and likely wouldn’t mind it.
He told me in advance because he’s afraid I’ll find fault with it in the future. Thinking about it, I agree—I’m not lacking money, and even if he spends all his earnings on his family, there’s no issue.
After all, in a marriage, these small amounts of money don’t matter."
Jiang Xin is indeed a simple person, always loyal in relationships. She never held against Qin Dazhuang’s mother for being eccentric and harsh.
Nor did she mind her husband’s overly filial nature and inability to assert himself.
Now, having considered Li Zhibin, she feels they haven’t married yet, but once they do, these issues can be avoided.
As long as Li Zhibin truly cares for her and the child, spending money doesn’t matter. She earns a lot anyway, and how much can a family really spend?
Jiang Xin still retains the nature of women from a simpler era.
Regarding her husband as heaven.
Fan Xiuying shook her head, "If his family is really , I actually advise you not to marry."
Being a mother naturally means considering more; marriage isn’t just a matter of two people being together, especially if the husband’s family situation is so complicated.
Who knows what kind of people the parents are?
Not just whether they are good people, but having so many siblings depends on the couple to support.
That’s no small matter.
She had seen cases in the village where the eldest takes care of the younger siblings, laboriously raising each one, but when their own children marry, they are broke, and the family is dirt poor.
Asking for help from the siblings, only to be told that it was their own choice as the siblings ate what the parents provided.
The elder siblings only subsidized the parents.
Such ungratefulness, they have seen many times, because with their combined age, they have eaten more salt than Jiang Xin has eaten rice.
They naturally don’t see this as a trivial matter.
No wonder Li Zhibin is willing to find their daughter; anyone would know that Jiang Xin earns so much monthly, marrying her is like bringing home a treasure.
No need to worry about anything.
Because of this, Fan Xiuying looks down on Li Zhibin, clearly he has ulterior motives.
Jiang Xin froze, feeling slightly displeased.
"Mom, don’t say that—Li Zhibin is a good man. He doesn’t gamble, doesn’t visit questionable places, and even rarely smokes or drinks. Where can you find such a person?"
It’s not easy to meet a man who genuinely cares, is cultured, handsome, and has no bad habits. After this time together, it’s clear Li Zhibin indeed has no trace of tobacco smell.
This proves he absolutely doesn’t smoke.
Someone who truly cares for his younger siblings cannot possibly be a bad person.
Moreover, Li Zhibin is quite decisive, unlike Qin Dazhi who is overly filial.
Jiang Xin feels it’s a great fortune to find someone like Li Zhibin given her circumstances.
There’s no point in being picky about so much, after all, they’ll live their married life.
Will she stop her business?
Even if she continues her business, it still earns money for the household to spend.
Who spends more or less is all for the family.
The honest husband sighed.
Jiang Xin’s attitude shows she is determined about him.
"If you’re really fond of Li Zhibin, that’s fine, but don’t rush to marry. Wait for half a year or a year. People need to be observed more. Remember the case with Qin Dazhuang? Even after five or six years of marriage, it was hard to see his true character.
It was only later that it showed, and who’s to say Li Zhibin isn’t another Qin Dazhuang? Looking more won’t harm you, it’s security for you and the children. If Li Zhibin shows his true colors...
Think about it, how hurt would the children be!"
Jiang Xin listened and agreed.
"Dad, Mom, don’t worry, I’ll follow your advice. I’ll wait and see, no rush to marry. You’re right, if it’s another Qin Dazhuang, my life really would be ruined. Better to look more."
Jiang Xin firmed up her decision.
Li Zhibin recoiled suddenly, he originally planned to show himself well in the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves and approached the kitchen door.
But he overheard the family’s conversation from behind the curtain.
Feeling the people are about to come out, he quickly and quietly returned to the living room and sat.
Breathing heavily, he couldn’t help but secretly curse the parents.
Those parents-in-law are really detestable; he was just waiting for Jiang Xin to marry him to save his neck.
Without Jiang Xin marrying quickly, how could he ask her for money?
To think they still suggested delaying for a year or half a year. Further delay would mean he’d end up in jail.
Li Zhibin nearly ground his molars.
It seemed Jiang Xin respected her parents’ wishes; she’d readily listen to them.
This is quite trouble indeed.
Li Zhibin continued to appear gentle and broad-minded. Google seaʀᴄh NoveIFire.net
He chatted and laughed with the Jiang family over the meal, even drank two glasses of alcohol with Jiang Lao.
No one could see any displeasure on his face.
After dinner, he stood up to say goodbye.
Jiang Xin naturally saw him off.
Li Zhibin seemed a bit tipsy, unsteady on his feet.
Jiang Xin felt a bit worried, what if Li Zhibin encounters trouble on the way?
She had to ride the bus with him and accompanied Li Zhibin to his dormitory.
Li Zhibin, due to his divorce, now lives in a single dormitory.
But fortunately, his single dormitory is a suite with two rooms.
Fang Xiaohui had already caught up.
She had been following all afternoon, waiting outside pondering how to expose Li Zhibin’s scheme. Today she was off; originally thought she’d go back,
but felt if today wasn’t done, in the future it’d be hard to reveal. She’s often at work, how would there be time to follow them?
Might as well strike while the iron is hot and reveal it today.
