Chapter 298 Self-degradation?
In the ward, the family that should have been close to each other was now separated by the hospital bed, clearly separated and facing each other silently.
The old man was very dissatisfied with the will left by his daughter.
It’s not that he wanted to covet his daughter’s inheritance, but he felt that he shouldn’t give so much to Jiang Tian, a daughter-in-law who hadn’t even married yet.
What's more, Jiang Tian is not an ideal granddaughter-in-law.
When his wife insisted on giving the child, Asong, away, he acquiesced. After all, his daughter was so outstanding, how could she ruin her life for such an illegitimate child?
But now, since the daughter has recognized her grandson, he is the real grandson of their Han family. Although the Han family is not a famous family, it is at least a scholarly family, and the daughter has studied abroad!
The old man's original intention was to bring Han Jisong back to the Han family and have him carefully trained by the Han family.
Although he refused to acknowledge Lawrence, the foreigner, as his son-in-law, Han Jisong had the aristocratic blood of the Lawrence family after all. How could a young man from a noble family open a seafood market and sell fish?
It's simply self-degradation!
Old Man Han wanted Han Jisong to accept his family's arrangement and go back to the provincial capital to go to school first. When he was admitted to the capital, he could write a letter of recommendation for him to go abroad to a prestigious university for further studies. After he came back, Han Jisong had the background of the Lawrence family, and with a little help, he would be very suitable to go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the Ministry of Commerce.
By then, with a young talent like Han Jisong and an outside family like the Han family, what noble lady could not be found?
Do we have to find a rural guy who runs a fast food restaurant and sells boxed lunches on the provincial road?
The old man became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, thinking that his daughter must be sick and confused. Even if he felt sorry for Asong who grew up in the countryside and suffered a lot, he couldn't indulge him in getting engaged so casually!
Especially for families like theirs, the marriage of not only girls but also boys is a second reincarnation that changes their destiny.
Is it true that finding a good father-in-law can help a man work 30 years less?
"Grandpa, I don't want to study abroad, and I don't like Western food."
"Besides, what's wrong with opening a seafood market to sell fish? Don't you like to eat fish too, Grandpa?"
You actually look down on the fishmonger?
If it weren't for these fishmongers, would you, an old man, still want to eat fresh fish and shrimp at home?
Go fish it yourself!
When Mr. Han heard Han Jisong's country bumpkin words, the veins on his forehead almost jumped.
"Anyway, I don't agree with you letting Song marry that lunch box seller!"
Han Youyi, relying on the fact that she was dying, lay on her sickbed and said to her father in a very shameless manner:
"I have already exchanged engagement tokens with my mother-in-law, and I have also asked Lawyer Liu to notarize my will. It cannot be changed."
Old Man Han's head buzzed and his body was about to fall. Two younger generations immediately supported him.
The Han family had strict rules. If it was normal, anyone who dared to disobey the elders would have been punished. But now was a special case. Han Youyi was terminally ill, and even the doctor said she didn't have much time left. Who dared to provoke her?
To put it bluntly, if I rush up to teach Han Youyi a lesson at this time, and Han Youyi gets upset and dies on the spot, the old man will definitely vent his anger on me.
The old man was also very angry with this rebellious girl, but thinking that Han Youyi only had Han Jisong's bloodline, he really didn't want to see his own grandson "degenerate" into a commoner selling fish.
As a last resort, the old man had to make concessions.
"If you insist on letting Asong marry the lunch box seller, that's not impossible."
"But we can't give her the yard and shop in the provincial capital, lest they become too greedy and plot more, which would harm Ah Song instead."
"Also, our Han family cannot marry a grandson's wife who sells lunch boxes. If that girl really wants to marry Asong, let her transfer to the provincial capital to study with Asong."
"When they both get into college, they can go abroad for further studies for two years, and then they can come back and get married in time."
Old Master Han was also afraid that his daughter couldn't stand the stimulation, so he wanted to use these words to comfort Han Youyi first.
He always felt that Han Jisong was just shortsighted because he grew up in the countryside. When he saw a family selling lunch boxes and making a little money, he thought they were a wealthy family.
When Han Jisong is admitted to a university in the capital, and comes into contact with more outstanding girls who come from famous and wealthy families, even if they do not object, over time, Han Jisong will fall in love with someone else and find a more desirable object. At that time, he will naturally understand that girls from those families are the ones who can truly help his future.
And this lunch box seller will only make him be laughed at by his classmates!
Listening to Old Man Han talking to himself, Han Jisong finally understood why his mother had secretly found a partner abroad.
Having such a controlling father would drive any normal person crazy.
He now felt a little regretful. He should not have agreed to Han Youyi's request to accompany her back to the Han family to spend the last moments of her life.
He also knew that Han Youyi made this decision more out of consideration for him. She wanted to pave the way for her son in her mother's family before she died, so that Han Jisong could get closer to his grandfather's relatives.
After she is gone, if Han Jisong encounters any difficulties one day, her family will help him for her sake.
But, there is really no need for this!
Compared with the care of the Han family, Han Jisong wanted Han Youyi to truly enjoy a moment of peace and happiness in the last moments of his life.
Instead of compromising and dealing with her mother's family for his sake.
Both sides had their own plans, and everyone forgot that outside the door, there was a "little girl selling boxed lunches" who was disliked by the Han family.
Jiang Tian hasn't met such an excellent relative for a long time.
What era is this now? Not to mention that Han Jisong is only the grandson of your Han family, even if he is your biological grandson, you can't arrange a marriage for him, right?
Just now, seeing Han Jisong not coming out for a long time, Jiang Tian was a little worried, so she leaned over to listen.
When I heard this, I was like, wow!
As the president of a university, and a person who teaches and educates people, how could he engage in occupational discrimination?
You look down on rural people, lunch vendors, and fish vendors. Why? Are you going to retire from your position as university president and make use of your remaining energy to become a public enemy?
After all, Jiang Tian is not gold or diamond, and she cannot be loved by everyone. It is normal that some people don’t like her.
But the Han family should never, ever bring up Hu Qiongfang.
They were smart. They knew that attacking Jiang Tian directly would irritate Han Youyi, so they simply used Hu Qiongfang as an excuse, saying that she was a rural woman who had not even finished junior high school and did not know how to educate a child. Jiang Tian followed her mother and sold lunch boxes on the provincial road all day, so she would definitely learn a lot of bad habits...
Huh? Is this a bad habit of rural people?
Jiang Tian rolled her eyes and gave a wicked smile.
