After being reborn, I decisively broke off my engagement and married a cold-faced military young mas

Chapter 257 Fu Huaiyi: Come, see my sincerity

Fu Huaiyi thought about it carefully and felt that it made a lot of sense.

That's why he said he came to ask Lin Ping for help.

Children understand their parents best.

After discussing gift-giving, he talked to Lin Ping about many customs from their hometown, and even took out a small notebook to take notes.

He had to carefully write down everything he said in a notebook.

They didn't stop until Lin Ping's rest time was over.

Lin Ping watched the whole thing and couldn't help but compare him to Lu Jiangting.

Lu Jiangting keeps saying he truly loves his sister, but what has he ever done for her?

His affection was all talk; I've never actually shown it in action.

The difference is like night and day.

Seeing how sincere he was, Lin Ping took out his pocket money and splurged on himself by calling home during his rest time the next day.

"Father, Mother, my brother-in-law is coming to our house to propose marriage. Please get ready."

Brother-in-law?

Where did this brother-in-law come from?

"Your sister is getting married to her boyfriend?"

Lin Ping: "They've already bought the wedding house, and he's going to propose next month. They've even taken the wedding leave. My goodness, such a big deal, and my sister hasn't told you guys yet?"

Two people: "..."

"This child didn't say anything. We know nothing about her except that she has a boyfriend."

Lin Ping's lips twitched, and he chuckled, saying, "My sister is a woman of principle."

"She has no ideas whatsoever. She has no taste; her previous boyfriend, Lu Jiangting, was unreliable. Now, we don't even know the guy she's dating. I thought they were in different places and it might not work out, so I didn't say anything. Oh dear, now they're getting married, and I don't even know if it'll work out."

Lin Ping was speechless for a while, then said, "You still have the nerve to criticize her? She's young and doesn't know any better, but don't you know any better either? Did she choose Lu Jiangting herself? If you thought Lu Jiangting was unreliable, why didn't we say so sooner?"

Ye Lian: "..."

"Hey, you unlucky kid, are you trying to lecture your old lady?"

"I'm just saying something fair. Before Lu Jiangting did those beastly things, you didn't say he was incompetent."

That's...that's...that's really a fair statement.

They didn't think much about it back then.

The main reason is that Lu Jiangting was just a child back then.

Adults' standards for judging whether a child is good or bad are quite simple: how naughty they are, and how diligent they are in their studies.

Lu Jiangting was the "other people's child" in the eyes of parents in the nearby villages since he was a child. He was also good-looking, so they really had no complaints about him.

At most, I just think his family isn't doing too well.

But thinking that as long as he himself is okay, and the two families live close by, I'll help him out if I can.

His parents are old; the couple is only in their forties.

When two families work together, they can overcome any difficulties.

Who knew he was this kind of person?

Ye Lian pouted and said, "Why bring him up again? Tell me about your brother-in-law... oops, tell me what your sister's boyfriend is like?"

“I think it’s great. They bought a house for their wedding, a big house of over 100 square meters, and it’s even in my sister’s name.”

"Huh? Over 100 square meters? And it's registered under your sister's name? How much did that cost?"

"More than 30,000."

More than 30,000?

The person on the other end of the phone was so shocked that they couldn't speak for a long time.

It's said that if someone in the surrounding villages becomes a millionaire, people will be incredibly envious. A house in the city costs more than 30,000 yuan, which is something they wouldn't even dare to dream of.

"Hello, hello? Dad, Mom, can't you hear me?"

The two came to their senses.

"Did the boy's family pay for it?"

“My sister and brother-in-law are capable; they bought it themselves. My sister contributed over ten thousand yuan, and my brother-in-law contributed over twenty thousand yuan.”

The two were stunned again.

Are today's young people really that amazing, or are they just getting old?

Wait a minute.

"Your sister has over ten thousand?"

"Yes, she makes a lot of money writing that stuff."

Good heavens, they know how to make money, but they don't know how to make money this way.

"Lin Ping, you've read so many books, I should have known better than to go to military school and write books like your sister."

Lin Ping's lips twitched. "There are plenty of people in the world who can read, why don't they write? Do you think they don't want to?"

Ye Lian: "..."

"You unlucky kid, why do you always tease me? I just don't understand."

"So I'm explaining this to you."

What was she talking about?

Sons are just not as considerate as daughters.

"Okay, then tell me what your sister's boyfriend is like."

"Didn't I say that?"

Ye Lian: "..." What did he say?

"Think about it yourself, what would Lu Jiangting do if he had this money?"

"Buy...buy a house for Widow Fang?"

She had heard that Lu Jiangting had funded Widow Fang's shop and the old tenement building, and quite a lot of it.

"That settles it. Now tell me, how does my brother-in-law compare to Lu Jiangting?"

This is truly a case of "no comparison, no harm."

Just now they thought, "We've never even seen this person before, how can we know if he's good or bad?"

But when they compared Lu Jiangting to him, they immediately felt that this son-in-law was much better.

Any normal person would be better than Lu Jiangting.

"That's not bad. Is that person ugly?"

Lin Ping: "..."

"Mom, why are you asking that?"

“Your sister has been beautiful since she was little. If she were to find someone really ugly, people would definitely say she’s after his money. It’s okay if he’s not good-looking, but he can’t be too ugly.”

It's not that she thinks that way, it's just that the other person is so generous.

Moreover, she had heard from her daughter that the man's family was very well-off.

With all these factors combined, she had no choice but to think this way.

“Not ugly at all, more handsome than Lu Jiangting,” Lin Ping said.

Ye Lian asked, "Really?"

Lin Ping: "Mom, look at the question you're asking. Why would I lie to you?"

"That's hard to say. Since your brother-in-law is so generous, he might very well be trying to bribe you."

Then Lin Dawei added, "Your mother is right. You've been speaking well of him the whole time; you've probably been bribed."

Lin Ping was speechless. "Hey, Dad, can you stop making things worse? That's my own sister. Do you think I'd betray her for a pittance?"

"That won't work, but... what if it's more than just a few dollars?"

Lin Ping: "I can't betray my own sister, can I? Don't worry, I'm telling the truth. Besides, it's one thing if I lied to you about other things, but do you think I could fool you about my looks? She's already taken leave, and she's going to propose next month. You'll understand when you meet her."

"That's true, I doubt you'd dare lie to your mother."

Lin Ping: "..."

Did they say when they would be coming?

"Didn't I say next month?"

"Next month, on the 30th, which day exactly?"

"How would I know? They probably don't know either. They'll definitely let you know once the time is set and the tickets are bought."
