Jia Xian is very ambitious. If he were still 20 years old now, he would probably do it right away.
But after so many years of working outside, he has long passed the age of acting on impulse. He has learned to be patient and to bow to reality.
Su Qiao stood up and was about to take the guy who was making a lot of trouble away when Aunt Li came over with her son who was cooking in the kitchen.
She was also roughly aware of what had just happened.
He first persuaded Jia Xianzhi to sit back in his original seat, and then said to Ding Jihan very politely: "Sir, could you please lower your voice when you make the phone call?"
"I have other guests here. Isn't it inappropriate for you to do this?"
"I'm not happy today, so I want to speak louder. What's wrong? Do you want to fight?"
Ding Jihan was very unhappy that the proprietress was looking for trouble and actually introduced a date to Su Qiao.
Aunt Li calmed her son who was about to step forward to argue, and quickly shook her head: "No, no, no, I'm just giving you some small suggestions, please do as you please, please do as you please."
Su Qiao glared at Ding Jihan warningly.
Ding Jihan immediately became timid and replied with a funny expression that said "the baby feels wronged". Then he sat back in his seat obediently and drank his tea in a depressed mood.
After this conversation, Jia Xianzhi was no longer in the mood to beat around the bush.
"You know the situation at home. My mother is in poor health, but she just can't stop. She wants to take care of everything at home and in the fields, and she won't listen to advice. So after we get married, I hope my wife won't be too squeamish and can help share some of the burden."
"This way, I can feel more at ease when I'm out doing business."
Su Qiao frowned slightly.
Does this mean that after she gets married, she has to take care of the house and the fields, and also take care of her mother
If these are not managed well, then it would be considered as being spoiled
Su Qiao finally understood why this man, who was not bad in terms of conditions and had money, couldn't find a wife.
"Don't you have brothers and sisters? Can't they help you share some of the burden?"
His younger brothers and sisters should be in their twenties by now, and should be married and have children.
Because in the countryside, people usually get married early at this time, and many people have children at the age of 18 or 19.
"They are still young and often don't think things through. Sometimes they need my help, so I don't feel comfortable leaving my mom in their care."
Jia Xianzhi has become accustomed to taking care of his mother and his younger brothers and sisters.
Besides, I am indeed living a much better life than them, so I am willing to continue taking care of my married younger brother and sister and their families.
"By the way, I heard that you have your own house and shop outside. If we get married, I hope you can sell the house and shop and go home to help me take care of my mother and raise my children. I don't like women who are too strong."
It is obvious that what this man lacks is not a wife, but a free and obedient nanny.
At the table behind, Ding Jihan tried to hold back, but still couldn't.
He slapped the table and said angrily: "My woman was born to enjoy life, not to work, and certainly not to be treated like a slave."
"Also, my woman can be as strong as she likes and do whatever she likes. If she doesn't want to have children, then she doesn't have to. She doesn't need those short and weak idiots to teach her."
Ding Jihan was filled with anger, not knowing whether it was because Su Qiao agreed to such a boring blind date or because the blind date man repeatedly spoke rudely to Su Qiao.
Of course, he didn't dare to get angry with his wife, but he could get angry at this guy named Jia.
"You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
