Chapter 1309: Chapter 1309: Both Young and Old Urge for Marriage
When are you going to bring a little aunt home?
Meng Yanzhi’s smile froze on his face; he wasn’t interested in marriage at all.
"Uncle Meng, I saw on TV that taking someone else’s wife isn’t right." Chenchen said earnestly, "You need to find yourself a little aunt to bring home, then you’ll be happy."
"Look at my uncle, ever since he brought his aunt home, he’s been smiling like a fool."
Chenchen thought of his two uncles, who have been smiling like fools ever since they brought their wives home.
"So Uncle Meng, you should quickly find a little aunt to bring home, then you’ll be happy."
"I don’t mind if you smile like a fool." Chenchen’s innocent smile hid the thought that mom and dad should be happy together, and Uncle Meng shouldn’t break them apart.
Meng Yanzhi: "..."
"Uncle Meng, don’t you think my suggestion is great?"
"I know lots of young ladies, why don’t I introduce one to you, Uncle Meng?"
Chenchen’s grown-up demeanor scared Meng Yanzhi off, and he ran away.
Ever since Meng Yanzhi got close to Chenchen, Meng Siyu’s gaze never left Chenchen. Seeing Chenchen chatting delightedly with Meng Yanzhi, Meng Siyu wished he could grab Chenchen and give her a good spanking.
This is his precious daughter.
Meng Siyu kept reminding himself, but soon, he found Meng Yanzhi’s expression was off, and eventually, he fled in panic.
Yes, fled in panic.
"Chenchen, what did you say to him?"
Meng Siyu couldn’t hold back anymore, walked over, squatted down, and inquired his daughter.
He was extremely curious about what exactly his daughter said.
"Dad, I told him to bring a little aunt home, then he can be as happy as uncle." Chenchen thought her suggestion was really great. Why did Uncle Meng look unhappy?
Could it be that Uncle Meng still likes mom?
No, Uncle Meng must bring home a little aunt.
Meng Siyu was dumbfounded, completely didn’t expect this, Chenchen was telling Meng Yanzhi this, no wonder he ran away.
"Dad, was I wrong?" Chenchen looked at her dad with confusion.
Meng Siyu gave her a big kiss on the cheek, saying, "My girl is absolutely right. Next time when we meet him at Great-grandpa’s house, you can tell him to hurry and bring a little aunt back."
"Okay." Chenchen grinned, thinking about telling Uncle Meng this next time they go to Great-grandpa’s house.

"Great-grandpa, will Uncle Meng be happy if he marries a little aunt?"
This weekend, Chenchen went to Great-grandpa’s house. As soon as she saw him, she stood by him and asked.
Uncle Meng, little aunt?
Old Master Meng took a while to react before he burst into laughter, saying, "Chenchen, your Uncle Meng will definitely be happy if he brings a little aunt home."
"Then hurry and let Uncle Meng bring a little aunt home, so I can eat wedding candy."
Chenchen smiled with her eyes curved.
Meng Yanzhi had just stepped into the house when he overheard the conversation between Chenchen and Old Master Meng.
"Grandpa, Chenchen." Meng Yanzhi had a headache; Grandpa had been urging him to get married and bring a wife home, which was already troublesome enough. Now, there’s little Chenchen also urging him to marry.
"Uncle Meng, Great-grandpa says you should bring a little aunt home." Chenchen was very persistent on this point.
"Uncle’s not very old." Meng Yanzhi began.
Old Master Meng snorted, saying, "Already in your thirties, not very old? Are you going to wait until I, the old man, am in the ground before you’re willing to marry?"
"Even a kid like Chenchen knows to bring a wife home and start a family. You’re a grown man not even as aware as a child."
"Meng Yanzhi, I’m telling you, by the end of this year, if you can’t bring a wife home, don’t bother coming back for New Year’s."
Old Master Meng delivered the ultimatum, saying, "I’m an old man whose health is deteriorating day by day, I don’t have much time left. Don’t you want to fulfill my final wish?"
"You can’t be alone forever; how pitiful that would be."
Old Master Meng applied a mix of soft and hard approaches, leaving Meng Yanzhi unable to refuse.
...
When Tang Yue found out about this, it was already half a month later. She counted on her fingers; there was just over a month left before New Year’s. Finding a wife in a little over a month, was this like buying cabbage?
"Honey, this is because the old master is urging him to marry." Meng Siyu cleared his throat, and couldn’t help but laugh when he thought of Meng Yanzhi.
"Oh." Tang Yue responded casually; whether Meng Yanzhi marries or not had nothing to do with her. She said, "At the start of next year, it’s Granny’s eightieth birthday. How about we go back home for New Year?"
"Alright." Meng Siyu also wasn’t keen on discussing Meng Yanzhi, so naturally he followed Tang Yue’s lead, saying, "What should we give Granny?"
"I’m planning to make some clothes." Tang Yue didn’t know what would be good to give, since there was no shortage of anything at home. Granny Tang’s sons were all successful, even her grandson Tang Xian was very promising. Granny Tang naturally enjoyed life with everything at home.
Handmade clothes would at least be a meaningful gift from her as a granddaughter.
"Sounds great."
Meng Siyu praised, "When the holiday comes around, how about we go stay in the village for a while?"
"Do you have time?"
Tang Yue couldn’t help but glance at him askance. He was such a busy man; he barely had time to eat, let alone time to accompany her in the village for a while?
"I do." Meng Siyu replied affirmatively, even if he’s busy, he wants to accompany his wife and child.
Moreover, now that the business is growing, he only needs to grasp the big picture; the rest can be handled by Li Wei and the others.

At night, when Meng Siyu proposed going to the village for New Year, Tang Zhengde and Zhang Hualian were momentarily surprised. Then Zhang Hualian nervously asked, "Siyu, you’re going back to the village for New Year, it’s not just for a day or two, what about your parents...?"
"Mom, don’t worry, my parents are also planning to go back to the village for New Year to properly thank my two uncles." Meng Siyu explained the plan to Mo Xiaolin, who also wanted to return to the village for New Year.
However, Meng Jin and Mo Xiaolin, as a couple, will certainly only return a few days before New Year’s as they need to spend some time with Mr. Meng in Jing City.
"Sis, aren’t you going back to Sea City this year?" Lian Qingyang looked at Tang Yue with anticipation. This year was his first as a married man, so he surely had to spend it in Sea City.
"Yes, but I’ll be going to Sea City earlier." Tang Yue cleared her throat, saying, "We’ll probably only stay in Sea City for two or three days then."
"Alright, we’ll coordinate through phone later." Lian Qingyang grinned and said, "We’ll definitely come over for Granny Tang’s big birthday celebration."
"Can Xiao Yan handle it?" Tang Yue turned to Jin Yan, who was beside her, knowing that Jin Yan had a slightly severe morning sickness reaction since she became pregnant.
