Chapter 51: Chapter 51: Better than the former brother-in- law

Translator: 549690339

“There’s some breast hyperplasia, but it’s not severe. You’ll need to take some small golden pills according to the treatment course; it will help control it.” “How much does it cost?” Jia Xiufang asked quickly upon hearing about the medication.

“Why take medication for something that’s not painful or itchy…”

“If you wait until it hurts, it’ll be too late! Can’t you take care of yourself? When I go away to school, can you manage things at home and let me have peace of mind?”

“Going to school?” Sister-in-law Yu was quick to catch on.

“My daughter has been admitted to a top university, scored 668 points!” Jia Xiufang said proudly.

Xiao Qian was speechless; her mother didn’t care about her own health but remembered all these trivial matters very clearly!

Even the exact number of points scored! She would show off whenever she met someone!

“Still a student…”

It turned out that Second Brother Yu not only forcefully took away a young girl, but also one just of legal age?

“My daughter’s academic performance is excellent. If she hadn’t had a slight fever during the college entrance exam, she would have been the top student in our city!” Jia Xiufang talked about her daughter, her bad habit of rambling surfaced, regardless of how well she knew the doctor.

“My family had a top student in the sciences six years ago too.” That student turned out to be Xiao Qian’s brother-in-law, Yu Minglang.

Sister-in-law Yu thought that Second Brother Yu was into those academically outstanding types.

Jia Xiufang still needed to undergo some gynecological examinations, so Sister-in-law Yu led her into the inner room. As soon as the door closed, she began her examination and inquired about Xiao Qian’s background.

Jia Xiufang liked to talk about her children; Sister-in-law Yu started the conversation, and she spilled ail the beans about Xiao Qian’s basic background.

After Xiao Qian left with Jia Xiufang, Sister-in-law Yu couldn’t wait to call her mother-in-law.

“Mom, there’s good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?”

“Tell me the good news first.”

“Second Brother took a liking to the girl, who came here today. She’s good-looking, filial, and treats her mother very well. She’s quite intelligent, too, an academic achiever.”

“Hahaha, 1 told you, my son’s taste in people can’t be wrong!” Mother Yu became excited.

“Don’t get too excited yet; there’s something else. This girl is only 18 years old…”

“What?!” Mother Yu was taken aback.

Was her son going for the “old cow eating young grass”?

“She’s just been admitted to university, a top 985 Project major. She’s quite impressive. She nearly became the top student in the college entrance exam, but had bad luck because she got a fever.” Sister-in-law Yu seemed to sense Mother Yu’s disappointment, so she added more.

“However, the girl is a minority, so there’s no problem with getting a marriage certificate. In my opinion, let Ming Lang date her for a year first. Ming Lang has to focus on his career for a while, and during this time, it would be good for the young couple to deepen their understanding of each other.”

“At 18, she’s so young and still has four years of university left…”

“Didn’t Second Brother also just take over the company and need a few years to adjust? Isn’t this a perfect match? Instead of having Second Brother busy with work and not returning home, leaving his wife alone in their empty room, he could spend a lifetime like this. By the time his wife graduates, they could have a child right away, how nice would that be.”

“That’s true… do you really like the girl that much?”

Sister-in-law Yu held a high position in the old Yu family. Although Second Brother already had two daughters-in-law, Mother Yu still got along best with Eldest Sister-in-law. Both mothers-in-law were doctors, both carrying gossip traits; they always bonded well. Second Brother’s wife was always gloomy and narrow-minded, and they both didn’t quite like her.

“Based on my many years of experience in introducing potential matches, this girl is steady in her work and knows when to speak and when to stay quiet. Most importantly, at just over ten years old, she already knows how to care for her mother. Such children are rare.”

“Haha, that’s great. I’m happy.” Mother Yu’s eyes lit up, if Eldest Sister-in-law liked her, then she must like her too.

Back when Second Brother brought his wife home to meet the family, Eldest Sister-in-law was the first to see her. She correctly predicted that Second Brother would have an uneasy life with her, and their experience over the years had been indeed troublesome.

“So when should we go over and meet the girl’s family?” Mother Yu was quite anxious.

“Let’s wait for Second Brother to be upfront with us. We shouldn’t go in a big group and scare the girl. Mom, do you think Second Brother, with his personality, can woo a girl? That girl is quite pretty, and she’s going to be seeing many boys at university. Can our boring Second Brother succeed?”

“Don’t worry, Second Brother might look reserved, but he’s just like his father; cunning. He has never failed to get what he has his eyes on.”

Mother Yu always believed that the person most like Major General Yu in the family was not Second Brother but the youngest.

When Major General Yu pursued her back in the day, didn’t he also resort to shameless tactics? She had confidence in Ming Lang.

Unbeknownst to Xiao Qian, she had already been examined by the Yu family. As she was out with Jia Xiufang, she didn’t know that somebody had been waiting outside her house for an entire morning.

That person was Yu Minglang.

Yu Minglang hadn’t slept all night, and while he should have been focusing on his company’s affairs, his mind was still uneasy.

He skipped work for the entire morning, but Xiao Qian never came back, and her house was still locked.

Yu Minglang stood there bolt upright until Chen Zilong, Xiao Qian’s brother, returned. Chen Zilong noticed the handsome jeep parked in front of his house and circled it twice.

He saw the tall man standing in front of the door and his eyes lit up.

“Were you the one who put out the fire at our house last night?”

Yu Minglang looked at him, guessing that this was Xiao Qian’s brother, and nodded.

“Where is my sister?”

“She went to the hospital with my mom,” Chen Zilong’s eyes swept Yu Minglang up and down.

The man was indeed handsome, much better than their former brother-in-law.

“Is she ill?” Yu Minglang furrowed his thick brows.

“Apparently, the former brother-in-law had hepatitis, and my sister went to get tested — hey, are you interested in my sister?”

Regarding this issue, Yu Minglang chose not to refute, explain, or deny.

“When will she be back?” He was running out of time.

“Who knows, it might be a while longer. Hey, what do you do for a living? Does your family have money? Are you in a better position than my former brother-in-law?”

Although Chen Zilong didn’t know what kind of car Yu Minglang drove, he concluded that it must be better than what his former brother-in-law had been driving: a QQcar.

Much better, in fact – a whole different level of better.

“I’m a businessman.”

Hearing that she might not be back for quite some time and knowing that he had to return to work soon, what should he do?
