Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 682

Chapter 682: Chapter 557: Mr. Lin’s Self-Interest

In the study, after Mr. Lin took his seat, he glanced at his youngest son sitting below and then looked at his two dignified-looking grandsons carrying an ice platter, before lowering his eyes.

After a moment, seeing that everyone was seated, he opened his mouth and said, "You’ve been making rounds these past few days, and you’ve met the people you should. Do any families catch your eye? We can’t delay the marriage any longer."

Lin Dingsheng frowned, "Grandfather, let’s deal with the pressing issues first. Once that’s done, whoever you think is suitable, just arrange it without asking me."

Mr. Lin looked at the other grandson.

Lin Dingli scratched his head, glanced at his dad, and smiled at Mr. Lin, "Let’s sort out my brother first. He’s almost thirty, and he can’t delay any longer. I’m fine, I must settle it by twenty-five."

Lin Dingsheng lightly slapped his brother, "Stop grinning and use your brain a little more."

Mr. Lin quickly intervened, "Alright, what he said isn’t wrong. Do the math, everyone your age has kids by now, even Xiao Fei is about to become a father. How much longer do you want to wait? This year, you must get married and have children; I’m getting old, who knows if I’ll be able to hold my great-grandchild?"

At this moment, Mr. Lin conveniently forgot he had another grandson—a grandson ready to start a family upon graduation. People’s hearts are biased, and this fact is hard to change.

Lin Dingsheng and his brother exchanged a glance and nodded at Mr. Lin.

"My brother has high standards, you should find someone suitable for him. As for me, as long as she’s decent-looking and can cook, that’s all I need."

Lin Aidang had been silent on the side. Hearing his youngest son’s words, he gave him a stern look. He spoke so lightly; if it were that simple, he wouldn’t have offended old comrades.

He looked at his two sons and sighed, "Dad, let’s handle the current issues first. My brother-in-law has been preventing us from seeing my elder sister; what should we do about this? My mother’s matter needs to be resolved soon too, or else the children won’t find good matches. And what about Xiao Lin’s issue? Will my brother be implicated?"

Mr. Lin glared at him, his good mood spoiled again. What to do? He wanted to know that too.

Lin Dingsheng glanced at his father and said, "Grandfather is already working on a solution; don’t rush him. Uncle is determined not to get involved in these things. We’ve been trying to find Zhou Jiao for the past two days."

"What for? That child isn’t close with us to begin with. If she learns her mother isn’t your biological grandmother, she won’t want to get involved even more."

Lin Dingsheng asked with a frown, "Then what do you suggest we do?"

Seeing his son cornered, Mr. Lin changed the subject, "Rather than looking for someone else, why not find Xiao Fei? If not even he tells you, then stop looking."

"Xiao Fei said he’s been busy taking care of his wife, and Zhang Guoqing has been at school; they haven’t met for a while. However, he did mention once that luckily Zhou Jiao doesn’t know these things."

Mr. Lin shook his head upon hearing this, looking at his grandson, "In fact, it might be better if Jiao Jiao knows these things. She has a good ability to understand reason. Even if she resents your grandmother, she wouldn’t vent it on you. What I’m concerned about now is your uncle; he acts without scruple."

"So what now? I can’t find her at all."
