After the divorce, Mingyue moved back to the Wang family and lived there for more than a month. Then, despite the unhappy expressions of the old couple, she moved out with her luggage.
The reason was that Mingyue became single again, and the old couple started to busy themselves with finding a partner for her.
In the minds of the older couple's generation, women must get married and have children, so that they will have a companion and someone to take care of them in the future. Only then can their life be complete.
Since Xu Feng is not good enough, then find another man. There will always be a better one.
In short, not getting married is definitely not an option.
How will they live when they get old without getting married? And it is so shameful not to get married, people will think that their daughter is unwanted.
So even though Mingyue had only been divorced for a month, the old couple in the Wang family had already started to get anxious and asked many relatives and friends to introduce a partner to their daughter.
They felt that their daughter's taste was poor, so this time they planned to choose a son-in-law themselves.
As for whether Mingyue would like the one they picked, Wang's father had already said at the dinner table: "Look at the one you picked, Xu Feng. What kind of person is that? If you can't judge a person, let your mother and I show you one. Marriage is for living together. As long as the person has a good personality and a good family financial situation, it's fine. Love or not is all bullshit."
This time, even Wang's mother agreed with what Wang's father said, and she advised Mingyue privately: "You still have to find someone to marry again, so that your father and I can rest assured. Even if you die in the future, you won't be afraid that no one will take care of you."
Mingyue did ask them: "What are the benefits of getting married? How can I be sure that I won't meet another Xu Feng? How can I be sure that it is that man who takes care of me instead of me being a free babysitter to serve him?"
However, these questions did not get answers from the old couple, but instead made them very angry.
They just think that their daughter doesn't want to get married and is rebellious. This mentality is wrong.
Then, the old couple went out more frequently. Yesterday, they even brought a young man back for dinner, and they kept winking at each other at the table. This is also the reason why Mingyue decided to move out.
The house under Mingyue's name was sold a few days ago.
She hadn't wanted to live with the old couple all the time. After all, things far away smell better than things close by. Plus, the two generations have many different ideas, so living together would always lead to conflicts. It would be better to live separately and get together occasionally to have some fun, which would make everyone happy.
Originally Mingyue wanted to buy an apartment in the neighborhood where the old couple lived so that she could take care of them in the future. However, she never saw a suitable house, so the plan was shelved.
Later, seeing how the old couple was so good at urging their children to get married, Mingyue considered it seriously and decided to buy the house in the neighborhood next door. It was close, and the owner was in a hurry to go abroad, so the price was quite suitable.
However, even if she bought a house, Mingyue was not going to tell the old couple right away, so she said that she had rented a house outside and was going to move to the rental house now.
When Mingyue entered the elevator, she heard Wang's father yelling at the door: "Can I still harm her? Ah? Everything we do is for her own good. If she doesn't get married and have children, her life will not be complete. She will regret it in the future. I wonder if she will..."
Wang's mother said, "You, don't get too excited. Nannan is disappointed in marriage because of someone like Xu Feng. It will be fine after some time..."
The elevator door slowly closed and Mingyue sighed softly.
She was afraid of disappointing the old couple, so she had no plans to get married again in her life.
The people who were concerned about Mingyue's marriage were far more than just the old couple of the Wang family. Many people who knew her, including relatives, colleagues, and even friends who had not been in touch for a long time, began to introduce her to potential partners intentionally or unintentionally after learning that she was divorced.
Also, because Mingyue is now a divorced woman, many people introduce men to her who they consider to be "well-matched".
These include but are not limited to divorced men with children, older unemployed vagrant men, men whose only virtue is being honest, etc.
Those men were very different from Mingyue in terms of family background, education, and appearance.
When Mingyue heard the introducer talk about their conditions, she was even a little bit puzzled.
Why is it that after a woman gets divorced, everyone subconsciously thinks she has lost value
Why does she have to marry those ugly guys after the divorce
Obviously, she still has a wealthy family background, a young face, a car, a house and savings. She never thinks that she is inferior to others because of her divorce.
Mingyue firmly believes that divorce is just a farewell to an inappropriate lifestyle.
So she rejected the "good intentions" of those friends. Even though they said privately that she was arrogant, she had no intention of putting herself in a difficult position.
Of course, most of the people who introduced these men to Mingyue had a very ordinary relationship with her. Moreover, these people's own lives were a mess, so don't expect them to think well of her.
People who truly want to do good for Mingyue and who have good character will not try to "match" someone up without thinking or caring about it. What they care more about is Mingyue's own thoughts.
For example, Mufen, after learning that Mingyue did not plan to get married, Mufen asked her: "Is it because you are hurt in the marriage and can't get over it for a while that you choose not to get married? Or are you really ready to live alone and can handle anything by yourself?"
"Actually, it's all of them," Mingyue smiled slyly, "but it's not something that can be solved by one person alone."
In the face of Mufen's puzzled gaze, Mingyue blinked and said, "I hired a nanny."
Mingyue invited the nanny Chen Qiufen back. It had been agreed upon before. It happened that Chen Qiufen's mother-in-law passed away in her hometown. She was busy in her hometown for half a month. It was not entirely Mingyue's fault that she wasted her time.
But after inviting Sister Chen back, Mingyue rarely slacked off at work. After all, she had to earn money to support herself!
Mufen also smiled. Money is a good thing and can indeed solve 99% of the problems in life.
However, Mu Fen asked again: "What does Vice President Wang say? He probably won't agree to this, right? I recently heard him ask Mr. Liu if his overseas returnee nephew has a girlfriend."
"It gives me a headache to talk about this. Lao Wang still has old ideas. He thinks women won't be happy if they don't get married. He thinks it will bring shame to him and he will have no one to rely on in the future."
Mingyue sighed and continued:
"Actually, there's no need to be like this. I'm not a three-year-old child. I know to put on more clothes when it's cold, to get treatment when I'm sick, to eat and drink when I'm supposed to, and to live my life the way I want. When I get older, I'll hire a caregiver, or I'll live in a nursing home. Aren't I more reliable than a man?"
Mufen nodded rapidly, this coincided with her idea.
