Accidentally entered a high gate

"Who comes back so soon after going to the countryside?" "Dad, calm down. Isn't bringing him back now a reward for him?"

Ma Jingshan also knew that he couldn't bring it back now.

Ma Jingshan was just indulging in empty talk.

"snort!"

Ma Jingshan circled around twice more before finally looking at Su Jingyu. "The mistress gave birth in the hospital. Tell me, did someone switch our son with her because you're a female cadre?"

"Pfft!" Su Jingyu laughed as soon as she heard that. "Even if you and your mistress are separated, you can still reunite."

Ma Lixing also wanted to laugh. "Dad, you and Xiao San are like two peas in a pod. My eldest brother, my eldest sister, my second sister, and I are somewhat like my mother, but Xiao San is exactly like you. Even if you wanted to say that Xiao San isn't your biological daughter, no one would believe you."

Su Jingyu: "Exactly. If anyone should be changing, it should be you."

"Stop slandering me. What do you suggest we do now?"

What else can I do? "I'll finish what I'm doing and go there. First, to meet my in-laws. Second, to get my third wife to study harder and take over my job."

"You're retiring? Weren't you planning to work until you couldn't work anymore before retiring?"

She wanted to contribute more to the country. However, "the mistress and his wife have no emotional connection, and the mistress is young. What if things go wrong later... we have to give that girl an explanation, right?"

Ma Jingshan: "..." Given his youngest son's character, it's quite possible. "You're thinking ahead. Once your mistress takes over your job, you should teach her well. Try to raise her to be as independent and confident as you are. Then, even if your mistress falls for someone else, she won't feel like the sky is falling, and she won't be unable to go on living."

"Hmm. After Xiao San got into the steel mill's publicity department, didn't you tell the steel mill's leaders that you'd have Lao Wen, who's retired from the newspaper, take her place at the steel mill first, and that Xiao San would go to the countryside to train for two or three years before coming back?"

"Hmm." He sent his youngest son to the countryside, partly because he felt his son was too spoiled, and partly because he felt the current situation was a bit chaotic. Unexpectedly, his youngest son snagged a wife as soon as he arrived. He knew without even thinking that his son was clinging to her to cook and do his laundry. He'd better bring his youngest son back to keep an eye on him. His youngest son was too much of a troublemaker.

"Then we'll let the mistress come back in two years."

"Fine. I'm going to give him a good beating when he gets back."

Su Jingyu also felt that her youngest son deserved a good scolding. "Fine. Let him treat marriage like a game."

Ma Lixing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his parents had accepted his younger brother's marriage. "Father, Mother, I'm going back now. You should get some rest."

Su Jingyu: "Mm."

Ma Jingshan: "Tell your eldest brother and your two younger sisters that if any of the children in your four families need to go to the countryside, try to send the boys. It's not a big deal if a boy gets divorced, but it's much harder for a girl to find a husband after she gets divorced."

"Okay. I'm going back now?"

"Um."

Ma Lixing had just taken a step when Ma Jingshan remembered something else. "Wait. You haven't told us the girl's name, how old she is, or who her family is?"

Su Jingyu: "Yes, yes, yes. Your dad and I were just too surprised to react."

Ma Jingshan: "I'm not surprised, I'm angry."

Su Jingyu: "Fine, fine. You're not surprised, you're angry."

Ma Lixing talked about Zheng Chunfang and the Zheng family's situation.

Ma Jingshan and Su Jingyu were a little disappointed to hear that Zheng Chunfang had only completed primary school. But they had no choice but to accept it.

Ma Jingshan: "When that brat comes back, I'm going to give him a good beating."

Su Jingyu: "Yes. It would be best to beat him so badly he can't get out of bed."

Ma Lixing: "..." Although reluctant, he really deserved to be beaten. "I'm going back now, you guys get some rest."

"Um."

The elderly couple discussed what to bring when visiting their in-laws before going to sleep.

On the other side, Ma Lifeng took out the things he had bought after seeing that Zheng Chunfang had finished washing up.

Zheng Chunfang was furious when she found out what it was. "You don't want a child? Then...then...then aren't you being a scoundrel? I...I'm going back to my parents' house."
