Chapter 1385: Arrange A Time To Meet
Wang Xiaoqin brought Han Xiaoyu away. Only then did Han Shu ask Han Jing, “What does your boyfriend do?”
Han Jing replied, “He runs his own business. His brother-in-law is more capable. He usually helps his brother-in-law.”
Han Shu frowned. “That’s too vague. Tell me more details.”
Han Jing knew that her older brother was worried about her, so she said, “Brother, don’t worry. He’s a very nice man. Lots of girls are pursuing him! Many rich, young ladies want to marry him.
“Like me, he’s a student at Beijing University, but he’s my senior and has gone overseas to study. He’s the only son. His older sister married long ago, and her children are already grown up. Their family was not doing so well in the past. When his older sister got married, she brought him with her to the capital. His sister and brother-in-law raised him all these years. Now that he’s grown up, he helps his brother-in-law.”
“What do his sister and brother-in-law do?”
Han Jing: “…”
She faintly said, “This… his sister is in business. His brother-in-law… is in the civil service.”
Han Shu: “… is he very high-ranking?”
Han Jing did not dare to say anything.
Surely his rank was very high?
The Gu family was one of the most prominent families.
Han Jing said, “I’m not sure of the details, but anyway, he seems very capable. I haven’t met his family, so I don’t know the details. It’s not so easy to find out about people in the upper class.”
Han Shu was quiet for a long time.
After a while, he said worriedly, “If you marry into a family like that, they won’t respect you. If his parents are not easy to get along with, you will suffer. What about him? Does he protect you?”
He had practically raised this younger sister single-handedly and paid for her education. One might say that Han Jing had fulfilled Han Shu’s dreams of an education. He was definitely concerned for his sister. He was afraid that this child would be too naive because she spent her time studying, and be misled.
Han Jing’s heart filled with warmth. “Brother, don’t worry. I have good judgment. He doesn’t talk much, but he is a very good man.
“Besides! Don’t assume that people in the upper class are difficult to get along with. Actually, the more educated the person is, the more reasonable they are and the more they respect others. He is quite good to me. Besides, we haven’t known each other for long. Our relationship is not yet stable!”
But Han Shu was still worried. He had paid for his sister’s education. He did not want her to return to the backbreaking life in the village. Besides, his sister was so intelligent and could study. After what had happened to his two older sisters, he would not permit his parents to sell his younger sister as well.
Only education and a good job would give her the ability to be independent in the future and marry a good man.
But he had never thought of his sister marrying into a noble family. As long as the family was fairly well-off and would treasure her, that was good enough.
Han Jing’s heart ached when saw that her brother looked very worried. “Brother, please don’t worry. If you’re really worried, I’ll talk to him and find a time for him to visit us. You can see him for yourself. Will that do?”
Han Shu immediately said, “Yes, let’s do that. Arrange a time quickly and bring him back so we can meet him.”
When Mother Han saw that her son had not touched on the crucial point after so long, she said anxiously, “Why are you going on and on? I just want to know if he will give me a small villa. Chuanzong needs a villa to get married!”
Han Shu’s expression darkened. “What villa? Who marries off their daughter and demands a small villa in exchange? Besides, Chuanzong is only 11 years old. It’ll be a long time before he’s married!”
Han Chuanzong was the youngest son in the Han family and was 11 years old.
