Chapter 97 Begonia's Carelessness and the Satisfactory Rain
After Shen Zhishou led Wang Minglan and Wang Mingliang into the back room, the two sides gave brief self-introductions, which were slightly awkward but still harmonious.
Yu Li had met and spoken with Wang Mingliang.
Although it was the first time meeting Wang Minglan, well, you know how women are; after a few words, they can quickly start chatting like sisters.
"Why don't you two go out for a walk?"
Seeing that Wang Minglan and Yu Li were trying to steal the spotlight, Shen Zhishou gave Wang Mingliang a suggestion.
"Thanks, Brother Shen!"
Wang Mingliang promptly thanked Shen Zhishou.
Then, Shen Zhishou suggested that Wang Mingliang and Yu Li go out for a walk alone, talk, and get to know each other.
That's certainly not a problem!
Wang Minglan smiled and agreed, and instructed Wang Mingliang to take care of Yu Haitang.
She enjoyed chatting with Yu Li and seemed to have developed a fondness for her because of her connection to Yu Li.
Yu Haitang is beautiful, the kind of pretty Wang Mingliang likes.
As it stands, both siblings seem to have a good feeling about Haitang.
After Wang Mingliang and Yu Haitang left, Wang Minglan's topic turned to He Yushui.
Neither Yu Li nor Shen Zhishou knew much about He Yushui.
They could only give a general overview of the He family's situation. Shen Zhishou also mentioned the unreliable He Daqing, who abandoned his children for a widow, making him truly unfit to be a father.
In Shen Zhishou's view, it's fine for He Daqing to pursue his own happiness, but he has to take good care of the child.
Don't even mention that you entrusted it to Yi Zhonghai—that's utter nonsense!
If she truly cared about her two children, she wouldn't have gone for so many years without ever coming back to visit.
Not long after the three finished talking about He Yushui, Wang Mingliang and Yu Haitang returned, seemingly because something had gone wrong.
-
"Xiao Wang, what's going on?"
Shen Zhishou approached Wang Mingliang and asked in a low voice.
Wang Mingliang's face darkened, and his tone sharpened as he said, "Brother Shen, your sister-in-law has a boyfriend!"
"What the heck?"
Upon hearing Wang Mingliang's words, Shen Zhishou's face darkened.
Meanwhile, Yu Haitang complained to Yu Li, looking aggrieved.
She simply ran into a male classmate from school, exchanged a few words with him, and Wang Mingliang gave him the cold shoulder.
Shen Zhishou had good hearing and naturally heard Yu Haitang's complaint.
"Let's go outside and talk!"
Shen Zhishou pulled Wang Mingliang outside and asked him in detail what had happened.
Wang Mingliang then recounted the whole story.
After taking Yu Haitang out, they walked side by side on the street, chatting about various topics. When they saw the supply and marketing cooperative, Wang Mingliang thought that since they had been talking for so long, he decided to buy two bottles of Beibingyang soda.
As a result, she met a boy at the supply and marketing cooperative. When he saw Yu Haitang, he excitedly grabbed her.
Then the two started chatting, leaving Wang Mingliang aside.
"Brother Shen, I think I should listen to you!"
"————?!"
Shen Zhishou blinked, unable to understand Wang Mingliang's nonsensical statement.
Wang Mingliang continued, "You said before that your sister-in-law's personality was a bit impulsive and not suitable for me. I should have listened to you then. Sure enough, beauty has led me astray!"
Seeing that Wang Mingliang was still in the mood to make fun of himself, Shen Zhishou knew that he had figured things out.
Of course, Yu Haitang and that boy might not actually be in a romantic relationship. However, Yu Haitang is clearly immature and doesn't realize the importance of keeping a distance from the opposite sex.
She was on a blind date, but then she ran into a classmate and just abandoned her date. Anyone would feel bad about that.
"It's alright. That girl from the Central Court is pretty too. She just suffered a lot when she was young, so she's a bit thin and a little dark-skinned, but she's definitely beautiful!"
Shen Zhishou could only offer Wang Mingliang this consolation.
"Brother Shen, look at this mess! I don't know how to face my wife anymore!"
Wang Mingliang scratched his head in frustration.
Shen Zhishou chuckled and said, "Just get along as you normally would. Don't worry about your sister-in-law having any objections. She thinks the same as me—that things won't work out between you and her sister!"
"Exactly! I've been praising you to the skies, but your sister-in-law thinks it would be difficult for her and her sister to talk if she introduced you directly to her sister's friends, bypassing her own sister!"
"..——
Although Shen Zhishou's words sounded like a tongue twister, Wang Mingliang understood them.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with what Yu Li did.
Of course, he was even happier that Shen Zhishou's evaluation of him was high and positive.
After talking for a short while, Yu Li and Wang Minglan came out of the house, and Wang Minglan glared at Wang Mingliang.
Wang Mingliang just chuckled sheepishly and offered no explanation.
Next, Shen Zhishou and Yu Li took the siblings to the He family's residence in the Central Court.
Although Sha Zhu is unreliable most of the time, he was quite reliable today. He prepared melon seeds, peanuts, and candy in the house, giving He Yushui a lot of face.
After a brief introduction, Wang Mingliang and He Yushui went out for a walk alone.
This time, the two wandered around until lunchtime before returning, and judging from their expressions, it seemed like things had basically come to fruition!
Yu Haitang sat alone in the back room, sulking.
She felt that Wang Mingliang, a grown man, was too petty and too chauvinistic. Even though she was married to him, she was still an independent individual and had the freedom to make friends!
But when she saw He Yushui walking with Wang Mingliang through the window, their figures looking exceptionally well-matched, she felt a little guilty for forgetting that she was on a blind date!
When Wang Mingliang and He Yushui returned, they were chatting and laughing. In the eyes of Shen Zhishou and the others, this meant that the relationship had been established.
We naturally had lunch at the He family's house.
Fortunately, Sha Zhu had prepared the ingredients beforehand.
News of the successful matchmaking during the rain quickly spread, and Yi Zhonghai and his wife also came to the He family's place.
Wang Mingliang naturally knew Yi Zhonghai, but he didn't particularly like him.
However, knowing that Yi Zhonghai had once been an elderly man in the courtyard house and that the elderly woman had taken good care of He Yushui, Wang Mingliang did not show any negative emotions.
Shen Zhishou and Yu Li did not eat at the He family's house, after all, Yu Haitang was also there!
It's clearly inappropriate to invite Yu Haitang over for a meal.
"We brothers have a long future ahead of us, a little while won't make a difference!"
"By the way, drink less, watch your mouth, and don't say everything, especially to that Master Yi!"
Before leaving, Shen Zhishou didn't forget to give Wang Mingliang some final instructions.
Wang Mingliang nodded vigorously and said, "Brother Shen, my older sister is here, how could I dare to drink!"
Okay, I forgot, the real master who can keep this kid in check is right here!
"Alright, go back and help your brother-in-law out, give him a handyman, and show him what you've got!"
"I understand!"
Wang Mingliang raised his hand and waved it with great flair.
Shen Zhishou then followed Yu Li back to the front yard.
When the two returned home, they were speechless to see Yu Haitang sulking on the kang (a heated brick bed), unsure of what to say.
Was Yu Haitang wrong?
Have!
Is it a big mistake?
Well, that's a matter of opinion!
Was Wang Mingliang wrong?
It's a matter of opinion!
But for Shen Zhishou, Wang Mingliang's decision not to abandon Yu Haitang, who was chatting enthusiastically with a male classmate, was already a great act of magnanimity!
If it were Shen Zhishou, he would have abandoned the person on the spot.
"Sister, brother-in-law!"
Seeing Shen Zhishou and Yu Li return, but no one paid any attention to her, Yu Haitang had no choice but to speak up.
Yu Li glanced at her younger sister. After all, they were sisters, and she couldn't bear to scold her. She just sighed and said, "You've never suffered any hardship growing up; everything has been too easy for you. This time, you've learned your lesson. From now on, be more careful!"
"Anyway, you're still young, no rush, you'll meet the right person eventually!"
"oh!"
Yu Haitang pouted and remained silent.
"Honey, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't hold back!"
Yu Li looked at Shen Zhishou with a very magnanimous expression.
Shen Zhishou rolled his eyes at him, thinking to himself, "If a man believes what a woman says, he must be brainless."
Yu Haitang looked pitifully at Shen Zhishou and whispered her apology, "Brother-in-law, I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
"Alright, your sister's right. You're still young, just consider it a lesson learned!"
Shen Zhishou really didn't know what to say to Haitang.
After all, she's just his sister-in-law!
What if she's my younger sister?
Well, he was even more reluctant to talk about his own sister!
