Not long after the father and daughter returned home, they put away the things from the Zhang family and had just finished relaying Zhang Dazhuang and Wen Xiu's message to Lin Qiao's mother and two younger sisters when Shi Xiuhua came knocking, eagerly bringing Lin Yan with her.
Hearing the knock, Yao Hui Chun opened the door and blocked the entrance without inviting the two in. With a scornful look, she said, "Rest assured, Qiaoqiao's dad really swallowed his pride for you. He's not even this dedicated to our own family's affairs. For you two, he got up extra early today, caught and killed a chicken, delivered it to the Zhang family, and begged them for a long time. After a great deal of persuasion, they finally, reluctantly, agreed. Otherwise, hmph, you think your Yan Zi, who didn't even graduate from junior high, could get into the Zhang Group? In her next life."
"The Zhang family really agreed?" Shi Xiuhua asked, overjoyed, automatically filtering out everything else.
