Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 1418 Waiting for Marriage

As night fell, Xue Ling drove home from the investment company.

She was thoughtful along the way, thinking about how to distribute the property to her children. It wasn't until she arrived at the door of her home that she realized that she had forgotten that today was her mother-in-law's birthday!
When she went out in the morning, Cheng Tianyuan reminded her that her children were all at home and that they were going to have a lot of fun today. The big kitchen had already prepared a big meal for dinner.

Not only that, he invited Xue Zhilan's family, Xiao Huzi's family of three, and Sister Achun's mother and son in advance, and invited them to come to Xinyuan for a birthday banquet.

As the old man gets older, what he fears most is loneliness, and he wishes his home could be lively every day.

They never liked to mention birthdays before, let alone have a banquet.

But things have changed in the past two years. Every time the old man has his birthday, there will be a lot of excitement at home, and the old man is very happy and no longer refuses.

Xue Ling originally planned to stay at home all day, but Xiao Liao called her and said that the general asset summary had been liquidated and asked her to come over quickly.

She hurried over after taking a nap and forgot the time when she got busy. She didn't say goodbye to Xiao Liao until the company's employees got off work and went home.

When she arrived at the door of her house, she realized that she had forgotten to buy a gift for the old man!

Wrapping a red envelope means that the elderly person has no shortage of money and does not need to go out to spend money. To her, it is just a number and has no real meaning.

She thought for a moment, turned the car around and drove off the road.

A while ago, several elderly people discussed buying a fully automatic massage machine, but then they stopped buying it.

Thinking that there should be a store selling it in Ronghua Mall, she planned to buy one.

In addition, my mother-in-law likes gold, so why not buy another gold bracelet...

While she was thinking to herself, she suddenly saw a familiar figure waving to her on the side of the road!
Xue Ling was stunned, and quickly drove the car to the sidewalk and parked on the inside of the road.

"Afang? Why are you here?"

Cheng Tianfang was dressed dignifiedly and elegantly, with short hair and light makeup. He was holding a small box in his hand and hurried towards her.

"Sister-in-law, I waved to you just now, but you didn't see it! I was about to walk forward, but I didn't expect you to drive back! Did you forget something?"

Xue Ling kept in touch with Cheng Tianfang. Not only that, she also asked Ranran and Yangyang to add her aunt's WeChat account so that they could send her aunt a message when they had time during the holidays.

Cheng Tianfang has been living alone these years. He originally lived in the dormitory of the TV station. Later, he saved a lot of money and simply bought a house in the same community as Xue Heng and his daughter.

Xue Han has grown up and knows that his parents have long been separated and divorced.

She lives with her father from Monday to Friday and with her mother on weekends.

Perhaps children who grew up in single families are mentally more mature than their peers.Fortunately, Xue Zhilan's grandpa and grandma live with them, so the child will not be lonely and his temper is quite cheerful.

Cheng Tianfang has devoted himself to developing his career over the years. He is now the deputy director of the logistics department of the TV station. His salary is getting higher year by year, and his status in the TV station is also quite high.

The income is stable, and the rent of the two shops that Xue Ling gave her has been stable and high, so Cheng Tianfang's life is very comfortable.

Xue Ling explained with a smile: "I forgot to buy a gift for my mother. I was planning to go to the mall to buy it. I was so busy this afternoon that I accidentally forgot it!"

"So that's it." Cheng Tianfang said warmly: "You and my brother are dedicated to being filial to the elderly. My mother must not be lacking anything."

Xue Ling looked at the gift box in her hand and asked, "For the old lady?"

"Yes." Cheng Tianfang smiled: "Sister-in-law, I still have to ask you." Xue Ling took it and asked, "Do you want to come with me?"

"No." Cheng Tianfang shook his head sadly: "I won't go in...so as not to make mom unhappy. Today is her birthday, let her celebrate her birthday happily, and don't let me disturb her mood."

A few years ago, she gave gifts to the elderly. Whether it was her daughter or her brothers who helped, the elderly people would not accept them and even threw them in the trash can.

In the past two years, Cheng Tianfang has asked Xue Ling for help and asked her to hand it over on her behalf.

Maybe it was because time had passed and the old man no longer hated his daughter so much, or maybe he accepted it to give his daughter-in-law face.

Xue Ling did not force her and asked with a smile: "How are you doing lately?"

"Very good." Cheng Tianfang said warmly: "Sister-in-law, do you know? Director Xue Cong has retired."

"Retired?!" Xue Ling asked funnyly: "Why so fast? Why didn't Sister Cong say anything? We didn't know at all!"

Cheng Tianfang smiled and explained: "She retired when her retirement age was reached. Her position was quietly taken over by a junior half a year ago, and it was successfully handed over a few days ago. She may be too busy, so I will tell you later."

Xue Ling nodded: "I am also semi-retired and I am finally free. I will invite her to my house for tea tomorrow and have a good chat."

Cheng Tianfang pursed her lips and smiled lowly: "She may not have much time yet. Her daughter has always refused to get married, which makes her so anxious that she can't help it. She said that after she retires, she will go to the matchmaking center every day to quickly find a marriage partner for her daughter."

After hearing this, Xue Ling shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.

"She has been working on this thing for several years. She can't finish it every year, but she perseveres every year. I am really touched by her unremitting efforts~"

Xue Cong's daughter was already quite old when she returned to China after completing her studies. However, she was very much like her father and mother. She was completely focused on developing her career and disdained and had no time to fall in love.

The couple had only one daughter, and they wished she could get married soon, but she kept pushing her and refused to find a partner to get married to.

Xue Cong found many promising young people to introduce to her, but unfortunately she looked down on them.

Not only her mother helped to find them, but her father also helped to find them, but she didn't like any of them and refused them all.

After searching too much, my daughter got tired of it. She always had an independent personality and advocated freedom, so she decided to move out.

She has a very high income, a very strong working ability, an excellent appearance, and a first-rate family background.

Maybe it's just because it's so good that many men stay away and don't dare to pursue her.

In addition, the daughter is more proud and arrogant. Most men do not like women who are too strong and arrogant, so there are very few people pursuing her.

She was also happy to be free and devoted herself to her career. She even threatened her parents that she would be single for the rest of her life.

Cousin Xue Cong has outstanding abilities and has a successful career and family, but she has nothing to do with her daughter. These old couples are very worried.

Cheng Tianfang smiled and said warmly: "We have already advised her, maybe her daughter's marriage still needs to wait."

"What about you?" Xue Ling frowned and asked, "Afang, do you still have to wait for your marriage? When you find the right one, just find a companion."

Cheng Tianfang's eyes dimmed and he gave an awkward smile.

"I...I haven't thought about that much for the moment."
