Not only is the income low, but there’s also the need to support three elders and a child. What money could such a family have?
When encountering a golden son-in-law like him, one must definitely hold on tight!
In the entire family, only he has a monthly salary over a hundred!
Zuo Ling felt a full sense of superiority in his heart!
Shangguan Xi didn’t have the heart to deflate Zuo Ling’s pride and also wanted to leave a good impression of her family in his heart. She knew some things clearly herself and lightly said, "My parents have a particularly good impression of you, especially my aunt and my younger aunt. After you left, the two of them were still praising you."
"Really?" Zuo Ling asked.
"Really!" Shangguan Xi nodded.
Zuo Ling then said, "So, should we start discussing our wedding date now?"
Shangguan Xi’s face flushed momentarily, "This... this is not urgent..."
"Xiaoxi, I’m already twenty-three this year!"
The eighties were not like later times; back then, people advocated for early marriage and childbirth. Some college students were still studying when they had children! And there were some who attended college while having children.
Someone like Shangguan Xi was already considered an older youth.
The most crucial issue was that Shangguan Xi was somewhat traditional. Normally, Zuo Ling couldn’t even hold her hand, let alone other things!
Twenty-three is an age easily prone to impulsiveness.
Shangguan Xi continued, "You’ve met my parents, but I haven’t met your uncle and aunt yet. I also don’t know if your uncle and aunt are satisfied with me..."
Zuo Ling said with a smile, "You can rest assured about that, Xiaoxi. You’re beautiful and well-educated. My parents will definitely be very satisfied with you. How about this, let’s set a time for you to visit my parents, and then arrange a day for the parents on both sides to meet?"
Shangguan Xi nodded, "That’s possible."
Having resolved the issue of having children, Shangguan Xi felt much more relaxed. On the way to the dormitory, she even hummed the popular song "Sweet Honey."
No sooner had she returned to the dormitory than Shangguan Xi found an additional message on her pager from home.
