Chapter 132 A Bunch of Fallacies
Both sets of parents are educated people, and they could understand the meaning behind it.
They just have different stances and different ideas.
Ran's parents felt sorry for their daughter, and when they looked at Zhang's parents, their eyes were full of resentment.
Zhang's parents were completely bewildered. They had no idea things would turn out this way. Suddenly being blamed and criticized made them feel very wronged.
Meanwhile, Zhang Liangzhi was silently eating his hotpot with his head down, as if this wasn't a blind date event for him, but just a meal.
Lu Yunxi once again acted as a peacemaker, deliberately changing the subject and asking Ran Wenqi, "Miss Ran, where do you work?"
"Just a small business." Ran Wenqi lowered her head silently, somewhat speechless. "Lu's Real Estate."
puff.
Lu Qianqian almost spat out her water.
At this moment, Zhang Liangzhi also looked up and gave Ran Wenqi a meaningful look.
Long Lin'er seized on Ran Wenqi's weakness again and mocked, "You said Lu's Real Estate was just a small company in front of Miss Lu's face. You're really something. I wonder which company you consider big?"
Ran Wenqi's face paled again. She felt that everyone sitting in front of her was from the four major families, so Lu's Real Estate was indeed a small company.
Little did they know that Lu Qianqian was the eldest daughter of the Lu family.
She suffered in silence, and lowered her head in even greater grievance.
Ran's parents were furious. They had come all this way for a blind date, and now this ex-girlfriend was showing up to ruin things. Zhang Liangzhi didn't say anything. Wasn't this just blatant bullying?
Mother Ran said, "Brother Zhang, thank you for your hospitality today. I think there's no need for us to continue talking. Let's go back now."
The Zhang family parents also felt ashamed. They had come all this way, and now they were being asked to go back. Where could the people go?
"Brother, don't be angry. We were wrong to treat you properly today. If you're tired, I'll have Liangzhi arrange a room for you right away."
"No need, we can't sleep here either." Ran's parents questioned and tried to leave, while Zhang's parents looked displeased.
Peacemaker Lu Yunxi had no choice but to step in again: "How about this, Uncle and Aunt stay at my house tonight, and I'll take them out for a trip tomorrow."
Then he turned to Ran Wenqi and said, "Miss Ran, what do you think?"
Ran Wenqi's face was already red to her ears; she felt like she had come here today just to put on a dramatic performance.
Zhang's parents also thought it was a good idea, and chimed in, "Yes, how about you stay next door? We'll treat you to dinner tomorrow to apologize."
Ran's parents knew that going out now would be troublesome, especially since they were unfamiliar with the area, so they went along with it.
"Alright, brother and sister-in-law, we've known each other for so many years, don't we know what kind of people you are? Get some rest tonight, we can talk about it tomorrow." Father Ran was already angry and had lost his temper, but now he was pretending to be a good person and advising the other party.
Zhang's parents had no choice but to suffer in silence. They saw the group to the door and then Lu Yunxi took them back to rest.
Taking this opportunity, Lu Qianqian said to Long Lin'er, "Aren't you afraid of offending your future in-laws?"
Upon hearing this, Long Lin'er glanced coldly at Zhang Liangzhi, who was washing hot pot with his head down, and felt a surge of anger: "What future in-laws? It's not even close to happening yet, we have nothing to do with each other."
Come on.
Lu Qianqian felt that she was meddling in other people's business.
You two can just keep messing around and causing trouble for each other.
Let's see how long you can keep this up.
After seeing off the Ran family's parents, the Zhang family's parents returned to the dining table, their smiles vanished, and they even looked at Long Lin'er with cold eyes.
Mrs. Zhang spoke first, asking, "Miss Long, I don't know what your relationship with my son is, but now that you've broken up, please don't interfere with my son's happiness anymore."
She interpreted it as the resentment of young men and women, and it was obvious at a glance that Long Lin'er was a spoiled young lady who had been pampered by her parents. How could she know that she could be caring?
Perhaps my earning ability isn't even as good as Ran Wenqi's.
It's not that she hates the rich, but in her eyes, the children of the rich are basically spoiled, have bad tempers, and don't know how to respect their elders.
They even act recklessly and selfishly, destroying other people's happiness!
Long Lin'er is a proud person. When did she allow herself to be slandered like this?
Even if the other party is Zhang Liangzhi's mother, it is not allowed.
"Auntie, what are you saying? I only said two sentences, so please tell me which one I said was wrong?" Her attitude was indifferent, but her tone was particularly firm, and even her arrogant gaze showed her defiance.
"You're wrong from the very first sentence. You young people should understand better that this is no longer the society of the past. Marrying someone of equal social standing is no longer the standard for choosing a spouse!"
The "matching social status" here naturally refers to whether Zhang Liangzhi and Ran Wenqi have equivalent educational backgrounds and abilities.
"Women don't need much education, they just need to be good wives and mothers, have sound values, and manage the household!" Clearly, Long Lin'er did not meet her requirements.
Lu Qianqian looked at the two people who were clearly at odds and didn't know what to say.
If they really become mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future, wouldn't they cause a huge uproar?
"Auntie's words are contradictory. She said we shouldn't have the old-fashioned ideas, but then she said women don't need to be highly educated. But in modern society, everyone is equal, and women also need knowledge to enrich themselves!"
Zhang's mother glared at her, still believing she was right: "Shouldn't a woman be a good wife and mother?"
"Women are not meant to bear children. Women have their own value. Whether or not to have children is a woman's own decision. They should live for themselves, not for others."
"A bunch of fallacies. Luckily, I'm not your mother-in-law."
"Auntie, you and Uncle are both civil servants. You're the same in terms of position, status, and background. You're a perfect match and have common interests. If you're like this, why don't you let your son be like this too?"
"What makes you think that Liangzhi and Wenqi have nothing in common?"
"Auntie, as a lawyer, Zhang Liangzhi deals with all sorts of people. He has lost to thousands, if not tens of thousands. If someone wants to take revenge secretly, what do you think Ran Wenqi can do to help?"
Mother Zhang frowned slightly, completely unaware of this.
Seeing that her words had worked, Long Lin'er smiled smugly, but remained aloof: "Would you rather wait to be taken hostage? Or cry and become a burden? Or simply get a divorce to protect yourself? Which outcome would you prefer, Auntie?"
"..." Zhang's mother was speechless for a moment; she really hadn't thought about this kind of question.
Moreover, Ran Wenqi was someone she had watched grow up; she was a delicate and pampered girl. If something like that really happened, she naturally couldn't rely on her.
