Chapter: 1402
"Good for nothing!" Sun Hongwei's mother coldly replied. "She doesn't even bother with what we have to do in our own household. She doesn't care about others, and if she gets past our doorstep, how will we live our lives?"
As she spoke, her expression was disdainful and contemptuous, saying, "I've already told you not to marry someone from a poor family like Xiaoman's. Without money, there's no upbringing. And now you're bringing this woman into our home, do you want to drive me mad?"
Sun Hongwei looked uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to directly disobey his mother. His mother's authority in the household was extremely strong, and even his father wouldn't dare to cross her.
At this moment, Sun Hongwei's mother said again, "Tell you, Hongwei, all our relatives have arrived today, and everyone is waiting to see what kind of poor wife you've found for yourself. If Xiaoman doesn't arrive by 9:20 PM, I'll be laughed at by everyone as the mother-in-law!"
"When that time comes, I won't even want this marriage to take place. Let Xiaoman beat her children, or give her 200,000 yuan to bear a child for our Sun family!"
"Mom!" Sun Hongwei looked very gloomy and said, "Look at Xiaoman about to arrive now. Why are you still trying to stop her?"
Sun Hongwei's mother sneered, "I'm telling you, if she dares to cross the threshold, I'll never forgive her for the rest of my life. Her hard days will start early."
"Moreover, my father also spoke up: 'Hongwei, you should definitely listen to us about this matter. Nowadays, when it comes to marrying someone, what's most important is that they're a good match for our family. Although we aren't saying we're a wealthy family, at least we have several million yuan in assets, and among our relatives and friends, we're actually doing quite well. If you listen to me, I'll help you find another rich family daughter who's on the same level as us or even richer than us. Then, our family's capabilities will be unparalleled within the Sun household.'"
His father let out a sigh filled with regret: "You say you can't listen to advice and just go after any woman? Why did you have to choose someone from such a poor family? Later on, we won't even give those relatives and friends an opportunity to mock us!"
Hongwei was deeply troubled in his heart. He had truly fallen for Zhang Xiaoman, and the two of them had been together since university days, never once having any major disagreements or arguments. They had always been loving and harmonious, with many people envious of their extremely stable emotions.
In his heart, if he could get his family's blessing and live a good life with Zhang Xiaoman, he would definitely become the happiest man in this world.
But he couldn't understand why his parents were so strongly opposed to his marriage.
Although Zhang Xiaoman wasn't from a wealthy family, she was indeed an excellent girl who can't be found easily.
Unfortunately, his parents had narrow-minded eyes and didn't see Zhang Xiaoman's many good qualities.
They simply thought that Zhang Xiaoman came from a poor family with no social standing, so they looked down on her and didn't want her to enter their home.
Regardless of how he pleaded or begged, they still refused to change their initial intention.
Even now, Zhang Xiaoman has already carried her own child, and yet they are still filled with disdain for her. This makes Sun Hongwei's heart deeply painful.
He even thought that if his parents truly didn't approve and wouldn't support his marriage, he might as well wait until after the wedding ceremony is over, take Zhang Xiaoman away to some distant place, and then consider remarrying.
At this moment, only a few minutes were left before the nine o'clock deadline.
Zhang Xiaoman was still nowhere to be seen.
Sun Hongwei's heart couldn't help but worry. He worried that it might be Zhang Xiaoman's parents who had stopped her from marrying him.
Just then, Sun Hongwei's mother, with a smug look on her face, whispered to her husband: "In my opinion, the Zhang family won't let Zhang Xiaoman get married at all. After all, we haven't given them anything, not even a greeting card. We've completely ignored their family. They won't be able to make any money off us, and yet we're humiliating them in front of everyone. So I think today's performance will definitely crush Hongwei's spirit."
Sun Hongwei's father said with some discomfort: "This performance has cost us too much. The Hilton hotel dinner alone costs several tens of tables, not to mention the wedding celebrations. We've spent over four or five hundred thousand yuan."
Sun Hongwei's mother raised her eyebrow and said: "Four or five hundred thousand is nothing! As long as I can get my son away from that poor woman, I'll spend a hundred thousand if necessary!"
As she spoke, she lowered her voice several notches and exclaimed excitedly: "I told you, Lin sister-in-law said that Xue's daughter has returned to the country recently, and she's also broken up with her foreign boyfriend. Xue's wife is now looking for a matchmaker in Jinling for her. If our son can be together with Xue's daughter, it will bring us great help!" JrNovels.com
