Chapter 119 The Wicked Relative Comes Knocking
but……

Song Zhi Ning hesitated for a moment and asked, "Dad, what if I never intend to get married?"

Song Heming paused for a moment, then thought carefully before answering seriously, "That's nothing."

"Huh?" Song Zhi Ning was surprised; she thought her father would frown and object.

Song Heming patted her head. "In the past, I might have disagreed. Dad hopes that Ningning can find someone who truly cares for her, someone to accompany her through life, someone to rely on when difficulties arise, someone to depend on each other."

"But now... my Ningning is rich. Even if she doesn't work in the future, she won't have to worry about food and drink, and she won't need anyone else to rely on or help her. If you feel free and happy on your own, then Dad won't force you to get married."

"If marriage lowers your current standard of living or even plunges you into a mess, then Dad would rather you be happy on your own."

“Ningning, you must remember that neither marriage nor children are necessary. Your happiness and joy are the most important things. This is what your father hopes for. As for love, your grandparents, your father, and your brothers can also provide it for you. My Ningning is not short of money or love. You don’t necessarily need to get married and find a man to have love and support. We are also your support.”

“Yes, sister, we are also your support.” Two resounding voices came from the doorway.

When Song Zhi Ning looked, she saw that it was her twin brother. She didn't know how long they had been secretly listening, but now they both made a promise.

Seeing that Song Zhi Ning had noticed them, they stopped hiding and stepped forward, each taking a arm around Song Zhi Ning's arm, and said firmly again, "Sister, don't worry, even if you don't get married, Xiao Zhou and I will take care of you in your old age."

"Correct."

Actually, matchmakers have been coming to the door one after another these past few days to arrange marriages for the older sister, which has made the twins a little flustered.

That was the first time they realized that their sister might get married and leave the family in the future.

At that time, they were somewhat panicked and at a loss.

The older sister is almost 10 years older than them. She grew up without a mother and was raised by her. She has a very deep relationship with Song Zhi Ning.

They never imagined that their sister would one day get married and leave home.

But they couldn't bring themselves to tell their sister not to get married. If, if their sister met someone she liked who treated her well and got married, then no matter how reluctant or sad they were, they couldn't stop it.

Although they wouldn't stop them, they still felt uneasy.

No one knew that the two little ones had secretly cried several times in the middle of the night these past few days.

And it was only when they saw that their father seemed to be talking to their sister about marriage that they couldn't help but eavesdrop. Otherwise, given their upbringing, they would never have done something like eavesdropping.

Upon hearing her sister say that she might not get married, they had to admit that they were somewhat pleased.

Sure enough, he immediately came forward and promised to take care of Song Zhining in her old age.

Song Yunting even said that if Song Zhining wanted to have children in the future, he could give the children to Song Zhining.

Song Zhining was both amused and exasperated.

She knew how much her two younger brothers cared for her, and hearing their words now, she was both amused and exasperated.

However, Song Zhining felt warm inside, and she was also very grateful to have such an open-minded family who cared about her wholeheartedly.

Song Zhining has always been very lucky.

So Song Heming spread the word that Song Zhining was still young and not in a hurry to get married, and planned to wait a few years.

This means that the matchmakers should stop coming to their door.

The matchmakers and interested families wisely stopped visiting. However, while villagers stopped visiting, other tactless people did.

At this moment, whether it was Grandpa Song, Grandma Song, Song Hemian, or the twins, their expressions were not very good as they looked at the old woman in front of them and the short, fat, and greasy man beside her.

The twins subtly stepped forward, shielding Song Zhining behind them and blocking the old woman and the man's view of her.

"Oh my, it's been years since I've seen Ning. She's grown more and more beautiful. Ningning is 24 this year, right? It's time for her to get married, or she'll become an old maid. In-laws, please don't neglect her just because she's a girl."

The old lady had a shrill voice and slanted eyes, which made her unpleasant to look at.

The things he says now are even more displeasing.

Especially when the two in-laws appeared, the Song family all frowned.

Grandpa Song snorted coldly and said, "We are not worthy of being in-laws with your Jiang family."

Grandma Jiang hurriedly said, "Alas, although my Arou and He boy are not destined to be together, they still have three children, and the blood of our Jiang family flows in the blood of those three children."

"Besides, they are my grandchildren, so of course I love them too."

Grandma Song laughed immediately, her voice full of sarcasm: "Having lived this long, I've finally seen a lot. I've never seen a grandmother who loves her granddaughter so much that she only comes to visit after several years. What, were you too sick to get up for those first few years, so you didn't come?"

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Jiang's face turned ashen. What kind of words were these! Wasn't this a curse upon them?

Grandma Jiang was about to lose her temper, but the man next to her tugged at her sleeve and winked at her, which calmed her down.

He forced a smile and said, "What are you saying? Even though I didn't come, I was still thinking about you, otherwise I wouldn't be here now."

Grandma Song gave a soft snort, "Alright, save your words for fools. Just tell me straight, what brings you here today?"

Grandma Song opened the door directly to meet her. She didn't believe that this wicked old woman would come to her door for no reason, or come to chat idly.

You should know that when Jiang Rou wanted a divorce, it was this wicked old woman who came to her door with her three sons and made a scene, refusing to accept any of the three children.

Although the Song family definitely wanted three children, the Jiang family and Jiang Rou didn't even fight for them, treating the three children as if they were getting rid of a burden or a hindrance.

What did that wicked old woman say back then?

They called Ningning a money-loser and said Xiaozhou was a sickly, short-lived ghost.

Over the years, the Jiang family, especially Jiang Rou's side, haven't even bothered to visit the three children, let alone provide child support.

Both the three children and the Song family became indifferent and cold towards that side.

In recent years, not only when Grandma Song was hospitalized, but even when Song Hemian was seriously ill, they never came to visit.

Therefore, the Song family doesn't believe a single word of the nice things they say now.

Their sudden visit today is more like a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken—it's clearly up to no good.

Grandma Jiang cursed the Song family inwardly for being troublesome, but she no longer concealed her intentions and directly stated her purpose.

"I was thinking that Ning is getting old and still unmarried, and given the current state of the Song family, it's impossible for them to find her a good match. So I thought it wouldn't be bad for Ning to marry Ah Cai."

"After all, Ah Cai is her cousin, so he will definitely treat her well."
