1607 Mother Xia Urges Marriage

Xia Mingcheng parted ways with Chai Qing and returned home. He heard Mother Xia in the living room hurriedly call him over. Xia Mingcheng thought that she had something important to discuss with him. When he sat down, he heard her say, Mingcheng, what do you think of Yuan Yuan? Isnt she beautiful, polite, considerate and gentle?

Xia Mingchengs right eyelid twitched violently when he heard Mother Xias tone, which sounded like she wanted to matchmake him with Yuan Yuan. Wait a minute, Xia Mingcheng knew his mother very well. His mother had especially high standards for a daughter-in-law. First of all, their family had to have status, and then a reputation which matched their own. Xia Mingcheng had always been disgusted by this.

Now, his mother was really going to set him up with Yuan Yuan? Yuan Yuans family background didnt meet the standard. Xia Mingcheng was both puzzled and suspicious.

Without waiting for him to speak, Mother Xia continued to promote Yuan Yuan. Mingcheng, I think Yuan Yuan is really good. How about she becomes our Xia familys daughter-in-law?

Xia Mingchengs face changed slightly. For some reason, he suddenly thought of what that Master had said about rotten peach blossoms. At that moment, Xia Mingcheng wondered if Yuan Yuan was his rotten peach blossom, but he felt that it was impossible.

It was mainly because other women might act pretentious, but Yuan Yuan had always been very gentle, considerate, polite and sensible. He had never seen Yuan Yuan lose her temper. To be honest, he sometimes felt that Yuan Yuans character was very suitable for a wealthy family. She was considerate and tactful in all aspects, and she was meticulous and insightful, which was rare.

Xia Mingcheng felt that he couldnt hold on to such a woman, nor did he like women with too many thoughts. Besides, he had known Yuan Yuan for a long time; if he were to feel anything for her, it would have happened long ago. So, when his mother wanted to matchmake him with Yuan Yuan, Xia Mingcheng immediately refused. Mom, Yuan Yuan and I arent compatible. Besides, youre being impulsive right now; she might not be willing!

Mother Xia immediately turned unhappy. Her son was so outstanding; how could Yuan Yuan not like him? Yuan Yuan had taken the initiative recently to visit their place every now and then; it was unlikely that Yuan Yuan didnt have feelings for her son.

But whenever Yuan Yuan came to her house, she didnt have much contact with Mingcheng. Occasionally, they would just say a few words to each other. For a moment, Mother Xia was a little uncertain.

Seeing that his mother was in a daze, Xia Mingcheng was afraid that she would continue to matchmake him with Yuan Yuan. He hurriedly said, Mom, Ill say it again: Its impossible between me and Yuan Yuan. Whoever I marry, it wont be her!

Seeing how determined her son was, Mother Xia rubbed her temples and didnt dare force the issue anymore. Besides, that Yan girl had just died, so she didnt dare press him at this time.

Another thing was that Mother Xia still didnt know if what Yuan Yuan had revealed about Mingchengs birth characters was true or if she had selfish reasons. If she had selfish reasons, Mother Xia naturally couldnt let such a scheming woman be tangled up with her son.

But if it was true, Mother Xia couldnt help but wonder.

In the end, Mother Xia could only say, Okay, okay, okay, I wont rush you to get married. Its fine as long as you and Mingzhen have a plan. The sooner you get a girlfriend, the sooner you can get married.

Hearing the word married, Xia Mingchengs face turned especially unsightly. Mother Xia also seemed to recall that she had strictly forbidden him to marry that woman, Yan Liling, in the past. Feeling a little guilty, she hurriedly changed the subject. Okay, okay, lets not talk about it. Lets eat lunch first. Auntie has already prepared lunch. Mingzhen is still upstairs. Go and tell him to come down to eat!

Xia Mingcheng nodded, but before he could do so, Xia Mingzhen came downstairs first. Xia Mingzhen was the youngest and usually very lively, and was doted on by Mother Xia. As soon as he came downstairs, he wheedled, Mom, is lunch ready? Im so hungry. By the way, did you get Auntie to cook my favorite pickled pork?

Mother Xias face was filled with love, and she immediately replied, Yes, yes, hurry and come eat! After a pause, she suddenly recalled something. By the way, I asked Yuan Yuan to come and have lunch with us. Mingcheng, go check the door. She might already be here!

As soon as Xia Mingzhen heard the name Yuan Yuan, he instinctively felt nauseated. Speaking of which, he didnt know why he had never liked this woman from the moment he saw her. Later, when he saw through her sly intentions, he blamed it all on her poor character.

When Xia Mingzhen heard that his mother had invited such a woman to the Xia residence for lunch, and she spoke like they were very familiar with each other, he couldnt help but ask, Mom, why do you keep inviting a stranger to our place to eat?

What are you saying, child? Putting aside her uncertainty about Yuan Yuans motives, Mother Xia got along quite well with Yuan Yuan. The girl was sweet-tongued and capable, and could also read fortunes for their family; Yuan Yuan had told Father and Mother Xia several times how to avoid minor disasters.

There was one time when it rained and the road was slippery, and Yuan Yuan specially called to tell Mother Xia not to go out in case she hurt herself. Mother Xia didnt listen at that time, and didnt expect to really hurt her foot when she went out. There were also several similar other minor incidents. In short, Mother Xia still trusted Yuan Yuan very much and was very protective of her.

Xia Mingzhen was especially displeased when he heard that. He felt that his mother had been tricked by that woman. As for the abilities that she mentioned, Xia Mingzhen really felt that they were nothing.

For example, he felt that he didnt need her to predict that his mother would fall and get injured in the rain; he could predict that himself. It would be strange if his mother didnt fall and get injured on the wet and slippery road at her age.

In short, to his mother, that woman was so G.o.dly, but he really didnt think that Yuan woman was that awesome. She only talked about trivial matters.

If that woman could suddenly fly in front of him, he might be convinced of her abilities.

Xia Mingcheng knew that his brother was in a bad mood. Thinking of how Yuan Yuan was coming to his house again, Xia Mingcheng couldnt help but frown. However, he was still polite and courteous enough to get up and say, Okay, Ill go and get her.

Brother, why are you getting her? That woman definitely has ill intentions toward you, Xia Mingzhen said unhappily.

Mother Xia was so angry that she immediately interrupted Xia Mingzhen and said, Child, Yuan Yuan hasnt offended you. How can you say that? When she comes later, youre not allowed to say that again. Otherwise, when your father comes home in the evening, Ill get him to lecture you properly. Besides, Yuan Yuan has done our Xia family a lot of favors!
