Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 31.2: The Prodigal Son (60)
Every year during the Chinese New Year, Dr. Lu would think about the misery of waiting for his daughter to get married and spend the New Year alone. Seeing that his daughter was getting older day by day, Dr. Lu not only wanted his daughter to get married as soon as possible, but he was also afraid that he would be alone in the future.
Now that Shao Yu said this, it completely dispelled his inner anxiety.
“Brother, your four requirements are really…really…what kind of virtue and what can I do…” Dr. Lu said incoherently.
The four requirements that are common in modern times are like a great gift from the man in this era.
Shao Yu didn’t mean to put on airs, but said warmly: “Your family doesn’t accept betrothal gifts, so naturally my family has to show sincerity. This is not only a happy event for the two children, but also a happy event for our two families. .”
Dr. Lu only felt that he had taken a huge advantage. After hearing these words, he naturally nodded vigorously, and he felt more and more in his heart that even if Shao Dabao was useless and had been a little salesman all his life, it was very worthwhile to become a member of the Shao family. .
Shao Yu seemed to know what he was thinking in his heart, and said: “I have three children, each has their own arrangements, but Dabao is the one with the worst congenital conditions among the three. Maybe he will have the hardest life in the future. Well, I just hope you don’t hate me.”
“Brother, how can you say that? The fact that you have taken so much trouble has already convinced Dabao. As long as he is dedicated to good things, the future will definitely be good.” Dr. Lu still fully recognized this future son-in-law.
Shao Yu did not mean to protect Dabao, but said: “Brother Lu, call Yun’er in. There are some things that I need to explain clearly to you.”
“I can just listen to this kind of thing. There is no need to ask her to come in.” Dr. Lu took care of everything. He just felt that his daughter was not married after all, so she should be reserved.
“This is also her business. She will also be the one who calls the shots in the future. It’s better for her to make the decision.” Shao Yu said with a smile.
Dr. Lu was slightly startled when he heard the words “take charge of the family” and then said: “Okay, just let her come in.”
When Lu Yun’er entered the room, she was still a little nervous. She didn’t even dare to look directly at Shao Yu, for fear that she was not good enough and her future father-in-law would hate her.
Shao Yu did not talk about other things, but talked about Shao Dabao’s past from an objective perspective. He gambled until he lost all his money, and even almost destroyed his sister. In the end, he broke a finger, escaped from the corvee, and got here all the way.
After all, Lu Yun’er was young and had not experienced too many things. After hearing this, she just felt that Shao Dabao had rich experience, but she had no intention of drawing a clear line with him.
Dr. Lu, who was still full of longing for the future, immediately became furious after hearing this.
“How can such a person, such a person, be worthy of my daughter!” Although Dr. Lu did not directly turn his face, he has already expressed his regret for this marriage.
“Brother Lu, I understand your thoughts very well. I just came to chat with you today, and it does not count as a marriage agreement.” Shao Yu said.
Dr. Lu was a little embarrassed for Shao Yu’s reasonable consideration for him. He was also quite tangled about his daughter’s marriage at this time.
One is Shao Dabao’s evil past, the other is his daughter’s insistence, and the beautiful blueprint proposed by Shao Yu, the future father-in-law.
Even if Dr. Lu was reluctant to accept the conditions proposed by Shao Yu, he ultimately chose to arrange a more secure life for his daughter instead of gambling on Shao Dabao’s uncertainty.
“I have helped him settle the corvée matter. Now he is still a good citizen, but he has broken a finger and can no longer study. He may always do some small business in the future, maybe better than now, maybe worse than now. I don’t know. I can’t guarantee it.” Shao Yu objectively stated Shao Dabao’s situation. Since he was marrying, he felt that he had the responsibility to tell everything clearly.
But Dr. Lu couldn’t listen to these words. At this time, his mind was filled with Shao Dabao’s past. He only had one daughter. Dr. Lu had to protect his daughter even at the risk of his life. The thought of what if Shao Dabao harmed Lu Yun’er like he did Shao Xiaocao, Doctor Lu would like to chop Shao Dabao alive.
“Brother Shao, you are a rare open-minded person, but I’m afraid this marriage won’t work out…”
As soon as Dr. Lu finished speaking, Lu Yuner, who was beside him, said, “Daddy, after hearing these things, I feel more and more that Brother Dabao is a rare good person.”
Doctor Lu glared and said to his daughter, “You have no say in this matter.”
Lu Yuner pouted.
Shao Yu said: “After all, it is her marriage, so it is better to listen to the children’s thoughts.”
With Shao Yu’s support, Lu Yun’er didn’t care about her father’s eyes and said, “Dad, if Uncle Shao didn’t say anything, would you know that Brother Dabao has such a past?”
Shao Dabao was in trouble in the past, but now he seems very calm. He carries cargo boxes and walks through the streets every day. He is even more diligent than many ordinary people. It is impossible to tell that he has such a past.
“Even if you can’t tell, this person is not suitable.” Dr. Lu said in a muffled voice.
“Dad, he has changed so much, which shows that he really wants to change his mind. Besides, he even saved your life.” Lu Yun’er said with a smile.
Dr. Lu stared at her and said, “It’s hard for a gambler to quit gambling. If he relapses again in the future, you will be ruined.”
