Chapter 658: The Daily Life of a Family
Yin Yi asked curiously, “Sister, what does my new brother-in-law do? When did you meet him? Is he a local?”
The words ‘new brother-in-law’ stabbed at Yin Jia’s heart, but she pretended as though she did not hear it as she said, “He’s just an ordinary civil servant in the Public Security Bureau. He’s a local. His family does business as well, but I didn’t ask him much about it. He’s an only child. His mother is seriously ill and is recuperating so only his father manages the family business since he has no interest in business.”
Guan Ning could not help but inwardly sigh in relief upon hearing this.
On the contrary, Guan Tang’s eyes flashed.
Yin Bin frowned. “How did both of you meet? Does he know about your background?”
Yin Jia replied, “I didn’t tell him about our family. He probably thinks I’m an ordinary white-collar worker. Dad, I don’t want to marry someone who only likes me for my background. He’s a civil servant with a stable job. He won’t cause trouble for our Yin family in the future. I think he’s the most suitable candidate for me. In the past, I was too young and made judgments quickly. I was too immature. Now, I think I should be more practical.”
Yin Bin did not say anything, but his expression was not very good.
Yin Yi asked bluntly, “Sister, does this mean you have to support him?”
Yin Jia replied with a smile, “That’s not necessary. His salary isn’t low either. At most, we’ll contribute evenly in the future. I think it’s not a bad idea.”
Yin Yi quickly said, “Dad, then we really have to make sure that Sister has a sizable dowry. There must be a house and a car! Apart from that, we can’t forget about a prenuptial agreement. In the future, if he betrays Sister, he won’t get anything from us!”
Yin Jia could not help but laugh. “Nothing’s happened yet, but you’re already thinking about my divorce. Can’t you wish me well?”
Guan Ning said slightly reproach to Yin Yi as well, “What nonsense are you spouting?” Then, she turned to Yin Jia and said, “Don’t mind your sister. She just cares about you and worries that you’ll be wronged.”
Yin Jia ignored Guan Ning and said to Yin Yi, “Wait until you meet him before you start worrying.”
Yin Yi’s eyes widened. “Could it be that he’s as outstanding as Mu Chen?”
Yin Yi did not bother to hide her admiration for Mu Chen at all.
Guan Ning said angrily, “Yin Yi! How can you always be thinking about a married man?”
Yin Yi was very unhappy that her mother interrupted her conversation with Yin Jia. She said indignantly, “Wasn’t Dad also married when you liked him?”
Guan Ning’s expression changed drastically. She instinctively turned to look at Yin Jia. Fortunately, Yin Jia seemed to be engrossed in a conversation with Guan Tang and did not seem to hear Yin Yi’s disgraceful words.
Yin Yi knew she had misspoken so she no longer said anything. However, a resentful expression could still be seen on her face.
On the other side, Guan Tang chuckled lightly and asked, “Sister, what time do you plan to bring your boyfriend back tomorrow? I want to have a look as well.”
Yin Jia said, “Is it convenient for everyone if I bring him back at 8 pm?”
Guan Ning hurriedly said, “It’s convenient, it’s convenient. Do you need me to prepare anything?”
Yin Jia said, “No need. He’ll just come over for a visit.”
No one asked about what Yin Jia and Guan Tang were talking about earlier.
Guan Tang’s smile did not reach her eyes, and Yin Jia did not say anything.
Finally, Yin Bin said, “Alright, then bring him back tomorrow so we can have a look.”
After that, Yin Jia switched the topic. She asked with a concerned expression on her face, “Dad, how are things going with Brother?”
Yin Bin frowned. “Your grandfather will be visiting in the next few days. He’ll go over and speak to Old Madam Mu again. There are some things that only your grandfather can do and say.”
Yin Jia nodded. “That’s for the best. I didn’t expect Cheng Che to be as stubborn as you. Although he didn’t grow up by your side, he’s very much like you.”
