Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!

Chapter 238: Don’t repay kindness with hatred (6400-6500 plus)

Uncle Tang was drinking tea. When he saw his son come in with a serious expression, he asked, "What's the matter?"

Tang Zheng nodded, "Something's wrong, but you and my mom will hear it, so don't be angry."

Aunt Tang, who was doing housework, was startled, "Second brother, are you in trouble outside?"

Tang Zheng shook his head, "No, it's about life."

"Besides being single, unmarried and childless, what else can you expect in your life?" Aunt Tang said bluntly, "Don't dawdle. Your father and I still have to go fishing!"

Tang Zheng's mouth twitched slightly, "I give you so much living expenses, you don't need to go fishing, it's so hard."

"Bullshit, I've been living by the sea and I can still move, so why can't I support myself?" Uncle Tang retorted, thinking that his son's idea was wrong.

When one has money to raise, he looks down upon labor.

Tang Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Since you are self-reliant, I won't give you living expenses."

Uncle Tang shook his head quickly, "No, that won't work. The money your mother and I earn is our own, and you should honor us. It can only be more, not less. In order to save you from wasting money before you get married and have children, we will save it for you."

Aunt Tang pushed her husband's arm and said, "Come on, stop digressing. Xiaozheng, what do you want to say?"

"Yes, let's get back to the point." Uncle Tang urged, "Your mother and I are listening. If you have something to say, just say it. Don't be hesitant."

Tang Zheng mustered up his courage and said, "I have a partner."

"Ah?" Aunt Tang and Uncle Tang were very happy to hear this. "You have a partner? That's a good thing! Why don't you bring your child home? Let's make an appointment. Your father and I will cook something delicious. You're welcome."

Seeing his parents excited, Tang Zheng felt even more guilty, "You know my partner, you might object."

"Objection?" Aunt Tang and her husband looked at each other with suspicion. "We are so happy that you have a partner, how could we object? You are hesitating, there must be something wrong, tell me quickly, you are driving me crazy!"

Tang Zheng saw that his parents were anxious and kept urging him, and he would be hurt if he showed his head.

Since you like it, then try your best and don’t miss it again.

"I like Sister Liwen, and I want to marry her." Tang Zheng said in a deep voice, "I hope to get my parents' consent."

"Ah?" Aunt Tang was stunned. "Sister Liwen? Is it Teacher Wang's daughter Liwen?"

Tang Zheng nodded, "Yes, it's Sister Liwen. I liked her before and I still like her now, so I want to marry her."

Second Aunt Tang was shaking and felt dizzy. "Tang Zheng, you...you are doing this recklessly! He is our benefactor, we can't do this recklessly! If we are not careful, we will repay kindness with hatred!"

Seeing his wife was upset, Uncle Tang quickly helped her sit down and said, "Calm down, calm down, and talk slowly. If you faint, how can we handle this?"

Tang Zheng also came over and gently patted his mother's back, "Mom, don't be angry, I'm serious, let's discuss this calmly."

"How can I remain calm?" Aunt Tang took several deep breaths. "Are you and Liwen in love?"

Tang Zheng shook his head, "I confessed to her, but Sister Liwen rejected me."

"This..." Aunt Tang was dumbfounded. After thinking about it, it made sense. "Liwen got divorced not long ago, and she was hurt so badly. How could she start a new relationship so easily? There is a big age difference between you two."

"Second brother, you have to be careful! Liwen's father died to save your eldest brother, and our family owes him a life. Over the years, we have been repaying the favor. I told your eldest brother that he will play a part in taking care of Teacher Wang until his death."

"You like Liwen. She has been gentle since she was a child. I like her too! Mom doesn't mind her remarriage, but you are young and a successful person outside. If you marry Liwen, you may get tired of the old and fall in love with the new in the future, or you divorce Liwen again. You will be cheating her! Even if your father and I die, we will not be able to see Liwen's father."

Uncle Tang agreed with him. "Xiao Zheng, your mother is right. You can't do anything reckless about this matter! He is a benefactor, you can't repay kindness with hatred!"

Tang Zheng was relieved when he heard what his parents said. As long as they didn't dislike Wang Liwen, he would be worried that he would not be able to control himself in the future.

Tang Zheng is very self-disciplined. He has known what he wants since he was a child, and now he is even more determined.

"Mom and Dad, you've always said that I have my own ideas, and I don't deny that. I liked her since high school. But I didn't have the ability at that time, and I couldn't give Sister Liwen a future, so I watched her fall in love and get married with someone else."

"Since then, I have been concentrating on studying and I dare not pay attention to Sister Liwen, for fear that if I pay attention, I will lose control of myself. I went to college in another city, studied abroad, and came back to start a business. I thought I could meet someone I like when I was abroad. There are many women who are prettier and more talented than Sister Liwen, but I can't like them, let alone marry them."

"I originally thought I might be alone for the rest of my life, but something happened to Sister Liwen, and I came back to life. I want to marry her and spend my life with her. Even though she is five years older than me, so what? I can guarantee that she will be the only woman in my life, and I only love her."

When Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang heard this, they felt mixed emotions. "You like her, but Liwen doesn't like you. Isn't it a waste?"

Tang Zheng was not convinced. "I am so handsome, so rich, and so innocent. How could Sister Liwen not like me? I was only hindered by my age back then, but that doesn't count now. Sister Liwen, you must like me."

Aunt Tang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Silly son, if Liwen liked you, how could she reject you?"

Tang Zheng argued with reason and explained to his parents exactly what Tang Xiaoyu had said to him.

"That's because she feels insecure. What she needs now is not love, but a sense of security and responsibility. Even Teacher Wang thinks the same way, so I decided to be honest with you first. I hope you can agree and then find a matchmaker for me and arrange a marriage for me. I want to marry her in a formal way and tell everyone openly that I am serious and this is not a joke."

Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang were so shocked that they couldn't recover for a long time.

At this time, Tang Xiaoyu came in with cakes in her hand. "Uncle and aunt, this is the Mala cake my mother made. I brought some to you. It's hot and fragrant."

As soon as Aunt Tang saw Tang Xiaoyu, she grabbed Tang Xiaoyu and asked, "Xiaoyu, did you know that your second brother wants to marry Liwen?"

"I know!" Tang Xiaoyu nodded and his expression became serious.

"Ah?" Aunt Tang was surprised and twisted Tang Xiaoyu's ear. "Girl, have I loved you so much in vain? You didn't tell me such an important thing?"

Tang Xiaoyu quickly begged for mercy, "Second Aunt and Second Uncle, don't be angry. Don't you understand your son? Since he has decided on something, what did he give up?"

"Besides, second brother himself is not sure about his relationship. If I meddle in it, wouldn't that be a random matchmaking? I won't do such a thing."

"And the most important thing is that my second brother can take responsibility for what he said, so there is no need for you to object. You all know that my second brother has a stubborn temper. If he can't marry Sister Liwen in this life, he might end up being a bachelor and lonely for the rest of his life."

"I've heard that there's a study abroad that shows that if a successful man doesn't like women for a long time, by chance, he's very likely to like men. If I bring you a male wife, what will you and your second uncle do?"

"This..." Aunt Tang shuddered when she thought of that scene. "When you think about it this way, it makes sense!"

Tang Xiaoyu winked at his second brother and raised his eyebrows slightly.

When Tang Xiaoyu comes out, she is worth two people at a time.

Tang Zheng smiled and breathed a sigh of relief. He could already feel his parents' relaxation.

"Mom and Dad, just promise me that if I let Sister Liwen down in the future, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death. Even Mazu will not protect me."

When Aunt Tang Er heard her son swear such a vicious oath, she patted Tang Zheng on the shoulder in fear and said, "If you have something to say, just speak slowly. If you swear all the time, good things won't work, but bad things will definitely work."

Uncle Tang swallowed the tea in his mouth and said in a deep voice: "Since you like Liwen and can promise to treat her well, your mother and I will shamelessly find a matchmaker for you."

"But I have something to remind you. If you really get married in the future, you can't just like Liwen, you have to like Liwen's daughter too. Don't be rude and spend money and energy raising a child, only to end up raising an enemy."

Tang Zheng was overjoyed when he heard this. "Mom and Dad, don't worry. I will get along well with Nuannuan. Sister Liwen and I are married, and Nuannuan is my daughter."

Tang Xiaoyu smiled, "Uncle and aunt, you don't have to worry too much. Nuannuan is a very sensible and smart child. She will be a caring little cotton-padded jacket in the future."

"It's different now than before, with family planning. My second brother will probably only have one child in the future, and since we have Nuan Nuan, we have two children, so we can help each other."

Tang Zheng nodded repeatedly in agreement, "Yes, yes, that's it."

Seeing that their son had made up his mind, Aunt Tang and Uncle Tang thought about it again and again and finally agreed.

Since you have agreed, then treat it as the most important thing at home.

Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang stopped going to the sea and went to the eldest brother's house with some good wine to ask for his advice.

How can I propose marriage in a more respectable way? How can I let Teacher Wang see the Tang family's attention and determination?

Mayor Tang was slightly stunned when he heard what his second brother and his wife said. He remembered what his daughter said at home last night. He was confused by the indirect words she said.

So this is the root cause!

This brat Tang Zheng actually had this idea in his mind. No wonder he hasn't gotten married for so many years. He must have someone in his heart!

"Since you have all considered it carefully, I will accept it. Liwen is not young anymore, so let's not waste time and cut the Gordian knot and accomplish good things as soon as possible."

Uncle Tang asked: "Brother, who should we find to be the matchmaker?"

Mayor Tang thought for a moment, and then said, "Look for the retired Principal Li. He was a good friend of Mr. and Mrs. Wang, and he is also our respected old principal."

"The old principal is so old, and except when it's raining, he still tutors the children in the small square for free. He is highly respected on our island. We persuaded him to be a matchmaker, which is enough to prove that we value him."

Uncle Tang nodded, "Brother, I'll listen to you."

The Tang family invited the most senior person here, Mayor Tang’s uncle, who is 93 years old this year. He brought Mayor Tang’s parents, as well as Mayor Tang and his second uncle, Tang Zheng, and brought generous gifts to the door and asked Principal Li to be the matchmaker.

All the influential people in the Tang family came out. After careful questioning, Principal Li spent the longest time talking to Tang Zheng in particular.

Finally, seeing that both the Tang family and Tang Zheng attached great importance to it, and thinking of the family tradition of the Tang family, Principal Li agreed.

At this time, Wang Liwen was taking her daughter, Xu Chongyang, and Liu Meilan to the sea!

When Xu Chongyang saw the sea for the first time, he was inspired to write a poem: "Oh sea, how big it is! Oh blue sky, how blue it is!"

Liu Meilan was worried that it would be dangerous if she walked too far, so she looked for a big pit nearby where there were many good things.

"You two go dig for clams nearby. Find the small hole, pour some salt, and the clams will come out by themselves." Liu Meilan instructed, "Nuannuan, how do you teach Chongyang to recognize it?"

Xu Chongyang swallowed his saliva, thinking of the delicious taste of stir-fried clams, which he liked very much. "There are so many holes here, I should be able to dig a lot, right?"

"Of course!" Wang Nuannuan said with a smile, "Don't waste time, learn from me, don't put too much salt, a small pinch is enough!"

Wang Nuannuan taught Xu Chongyang. Although they were not big, they were very skillful and soon filled all the small holes with salt.

After a while, the clams couldn't stand it anymore and popped out of the small holes like little gophers. (Picture)

Wang Nuannuan picked them up one by one like plucking green onions and put them in a small bucket.

Xu Chongyang followed Wang Nuannuan's example and pulled out a long clam. "I pulled it out. This one is very big and long."

Liu Meilan praised, "Great, make more, and when it spits out all the sand, I'll stir-fry it for you to eat."

Wang Liwen took the bucket and silently poured out the water in the puddle.

Although the movements are continuous, they are very mechanical and stiff.

Liu Meilan knew at a glance that she was distracted!

From Tang Xiaoyu, Liu Meilan learned that Tang Zheng was pursuing Wang Liwen vigorously.

Since returning to Sifang Island, Teacher Wang has been finding ways to make delicious food for his daughter and granddaughter to nourish their bodies.

In addition to the large amount of property she received after the divorce, Wang Liwen was in high spirits and looked radiant.

Not only did her complexion improve, she also got her hair permed again, put on nice clothes, and regained her former gentleness and beauty.

No wonder Tang Zheng has always been obsessed with her. Now that he has the opportunity to pursue her, he will go all out.

But for Wang Liwen now, she enjoys a peaceful and comfortable life.

Being pursued by such a handsome, young and capable man like Tang Zheng, Wang Liwen, who is in her prime years, cannot remain calm and ripples have already appeared in her heart.

During the divorce process, it was Tang Zheng's gentleness and care that gradually soothed his sensitive and fragile heart.

And through his superb abilities, he helped her regain so much property.

Wang Liwen is a very emotional and sensitive person. How could she not feel Tang Zheng's special treatment?

But all along, she pretended not to know.

I always feel that Tang Zheng might just be infatuated with her when he was young, and it’s not love.

She originally thought that everything would be fine like this, but Tang Zheng confessed his feelings to her.

This incident left Wang Liwen at a loss as to what to do.

The only saying that comes to my mind is, "Old cows eat young grass."

It would be so embarrassing if other people knew about this!
