Mrs. Yang didn’t necessarily agree with Qin Sanlong’s approach, but she was unwilling to compel her son to choose a girl he didn’t genuinely like.
Later on, Qin Sanlong enlisted Qin Zhenzhen’s help to persuade his parents. She chimed in, saying, “Third Brother is still quite young. Let him enjoy his life without any burdens. Maybe he’s already found his soulmate. Finding one’s own spouse is quite common in the modern era, even if it appears unconventional in ancient times. In the past, most individuals, both men and women, had little say in their marriages, and that was a source of sorrow for many.”
Out of empathy for her third brother, Qin Zhenzhen decided to support his choice.
Mrs. Yang and Qin Shan chose not to pressure Qin Sanlong any further, but the fact that even Fourth Brother was now engaged left them concerned about how he might be perceived.
Qin Sanlong understood his mother’s worries, but he remained patient. Mrs. Yang reminded him once again, “If you continue to be so selective, you’ll be married when you’re married, but don’t you feel ashamed for not settling down sooner?”
Qin Sanlong smiled and proposed a compromise, “Well, even though Fourth Brother is engaged, he won’t be returning to marry for another two years. So, technically, I still have two years. If, by that time, I haven’t found someone I feel destined to be with, I’ll heed my parents’ wishes, okay?”
Mrs. Yang shook her head firmly. “No!” This time, her stance was resolute.
“Your father and I have had a thorough discussion about this, and we can’t postpone it any further!” Mrs. Yang declared with determination. “You’ve even written down your requirements on paper: appearance, family background, personality, and age. I’ll take these requests to the matchmaker, and you’ll find a suitable match more quickly that way.”
Qin Sanlong was caught between laughter and frustration. “Mother, I’ve repeatedly emphasized that my requirements are truly not extravagant! I haven’t asked for youth or beauty, social status, or a specific personality. I simply want a good rapport and compatibility. I can’t put that into a request! ”
Mrs. Yang’s frustration flared, and she reached for a feather duster as if to strike him. “How dare you claim your expectations aren’t high?”
Quickly seeking refuge behind his older brother, Qin Sanlong implored,
“Mother, please don’t act rashly. It’s not right to resort to violence.”
Mrs. Yang hadn’t genuinely intended to harm her son, so she halted, pointing the feather duster at Qin Sanlong while continuing her scolding.
“You’ve met no less than ten young ladies before, and not one of them has met your standards! Are you sure you’re not just making excuses? These girls are all unique in their own ways and aren’t unattractive. They come from well-rounded backgrounds. Why can’t you find one you like? It’s as if you don’t wish to get married at all! You’re showing no sense of responsibility; you’re afraid of shouldering the responsibilities of a husband after marriage!”
She grew increasingly animated in her criticism. “You’re not even considering your duty to your parents! We worry about you daily, and you don’t seem to take it seriously.”
Mrs. Yang’s rant left Qin Sanlong momentarily stunned by the barrage of words.
He couldn’t help but wonder why his mother was so insistent on this matter when he simply didn’t want to rush into marriage. Qin Dalong, noticing the tense situation, intervened by pulling his third brother out from behind their mother and offering some advice.
“Third Brother,” he began in a calm tone, “just look at how upset Mother is. It’s just finding a wife. Is it really that complicated? Eldest Brother and Second Brother had to rely on our parents to arrange their marriages, but you’re being so particular.”
As Qin Dalong spoke, he discreetly moved his third brother aside and whispered, “Don’t be stubborn, Third Brother.. Just because you didn’t feel an immediate attraction to a girl doesn’t mean you won’t be drawn to her in the future!”
