Chapter 380: 117: Clever Mrs. Zheng, Meeting the Parents One by One (revised)_2

Zheng Suyu is the youngest sister of Old Master Zheng, and she is fifty-six years old this year.

This younger sister was a talented woman in her early years, but she unfortunately met a faithless man and lost all faith in marriage. She openly declared that she would remain unwed for life and had been living in the Zheng’s residence ever since.

Then, three years ago, she went mad overnight while she was perfectly fine.

When she was taken to the hospital, the doctors diagnosed her with a mental illness stemmed from severe depression.

There was almost no chance of recovery.

“Ghost! You are a ghost!” Zheng Suyu stared at Zheng Lingling; she suddenly became frightened, “How terrifying! There’s a ghost!”

“Ghost! You all are ghosts!”

Zheng Suyu suddenly pushed Zheng Lingling onto the ground, laughing crazily, “Ha ha! The ghost is dead! The evil ghost was killed by me! I am so powerful!”

“Suyu!” Madame Zheng shouted angrily, “Butler Liu, take Suyu back to her room.”

“Sister, behave, Suyu will behave…” Zheng Suyu plaintively clung to the sleeve of Madame Zheng.

She looked like a scared child, making people reluctant to scold her.

When was it that Zheng Suyu was also a person proud to the bone.

Fate plays with people.

Madame Zheng’s eyes were filled with sadness and helplessness.

Zheng Lingling, understanding the situation, said: “Mom, please don’t blame Aunt Suyu, I was just not steady on my feet. Aunt Suyu didn’t mean to, if she could control herself, she wouldn’t behave like this.”

“Wah!” Zheng Suyu made a face at Zheng Lingling.

Madame Zheng sighed, looking at Zheng Suyu and said, “Suyu, when can you get better?”

“Sister, hehe, sister, you are so beautiful!” Zheng Suyu suddenly became excited and started hopping around the room.

Madame Zheng sighed again, her eyes full of sorrow.

…

Park.

Shangguan Dehui lost his wife early. His visits to the park this year were not just for leisure walks but also for matchmaking events.

Shangguan Xu and Shangguan Xi were sensible children; they did not object to their father finding a companion.

The woman he met was Lin Fang, who is exactly 40 years old. Her husband passed away five years ago from liver cancer, and she remained unmarried.

Shangguan Dehui is already forty-two and at his age, he didn’t have high demands for women. As long as the woman was gentle, virtuous, and able to live a daily life, that would be enough.

Lin Fang was a kindergarten teacher, had an elegant job, and was decent in character. There was no significant generation gap between her and Shangguan Dehui.

After the meeting, Shangguan Xi asked, “Dad, what is your impression of Aunt Lin?”

Shangguan Dehui said, “You can only know a person’s heart with time.”

Shangguan Xi asked, “So that means your first impression is good?”

Shangguan Dehui turned the question, “Xiaoxi, what do you think of Lin Fang?”

In fact, he didn’t mind much. As long as Shangguan Xu and Shangguan Xi thought it was okay, it was okay.

Shangguan Xi smiled and responded, “I think Aunt Lin is nice. She has a good background, a decent job, and a gentle personality. I think she’s very compatible with you. How about dating Aunt Lin for a while, Dad? If you find you are not compatible, you can break up.”

Shangguan Dehui said, “I will think about it more.”

Shangguan Xi nodded and continued, “Actually, Aunt Lin is really good. I heard from Grandma Zhao that her husband has been gone for five years, but she has been devotedly serving her paralyzed mother-in-law without any complaints.”

Lin Fang was indeed a good person. Shangguan Xi did not want her father to miss her.

…

Lin Fang returned home with a smile on her face.

As soon as she opened the door, her only daughter, Chang Yue, eagerly asked, “Mom, how did it go?”

Lin Fang said, “I think Shangguan Dehui should be quite satisfied with me.”

“Really?” Chang Yue asked in surprise.

“Hmm.” Lin Fang nodded, “At least the first impression is good.”

Chang Yue continued, “Mom, you must seize the opportunity. The Shangguan family is a wealthy family. If you marry into it, then I will be a lady of wealth. Moreover, I heard that Shangguan Xu is the president of a bank, and he is also very handsome…”

Chang Yue got lost in her own fantasies.

If her mother marries into the Shangguan family, although she can also become a rich young lady, she will always be a stepdaughter. But if she could capture Shangguan Xu’s heart, it would be different.

Then, she would become the true mistress of the Shangguan family.

Lin Fang laughed and said, “Do I need you to tell me that?”

Just then, a hoarse voice came from the next room, “Hungry! I am so hungry…”
