Too Bad I Take Things Seriously-Chapter 606 - 234 Zhang Qingyuan: When did I become so influential? _3

To secure a "good review" for this charity event, they had no choice but to endure it.

Fortunately, it wasn’t for long.

Zhang Qingyuan soon went out to greet the guests and stopped tormenting them.

Meanwhile, Feng Cuihua didn’t boss them around either, merely having them stand by her side.

They gradually became more audacious and simply sat down on the sofa.

"Let me say something fair," one began. "I dislike Zhang Qingyuan. He seems like bad news right from the start."

"If Mom marries him, she might end up suffering domestic violence."

"I disagree with this marriage." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Should we sabotage it? Otherwise, we’ll have to call him stepfather in the future."

The comments trailed off. For the previous two hours, Zhang Qingyuan had relentlessly invented ways to torment them, treating them as if they were his own sons. If she really married him, they worried how he would treat them in the future. After all, Zhang Qingyuan would then officially be their stepfather.

"Mom sued us last time; I think it was his doing too," one of them whispered.

"If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have ended up in this mess!"

"He looks like no good at all. He probably even swallows up the support payments we give Mom!"

"Plus, Mom is already so old. Does she really need to get married?"

The men looked at each other, unanimously agreeing they couldn’t let Zhang Qingyuan become their stepfather. He isn’t even married to Mom yet, and he’s already ordering us around like we’re his sons! If they actually get married, wouldn’t he be walking all over us?

Therefore, Jiang Daping got up from the sofa and turned to Feng Cuihua, who was waiting. He called out, "Mom, come here. We need to talk to you."

Engulfed in her joy, Feng Cuihua turned to face the four of them. She replied with a smile, "What’s up?"

Today was her wedding day with Zhang Qingyuan. Her sons had also come to the nursing home to accompany her. She even felt as if her prodigal sons had returned. But Jiang Daping’s next words made her smile freeze.

"Mom, I think you shouldn’t marry this Zhang Qingyuan. You two aren’t suitable."

Following that, Jiang Erping stood up and said, "I agree. You’re old, not particularly good-looking, and don’t have money. What’s his ulterior motive for marrying you? Haven’t you thought about it?"

Jiang Sanping nodded. "We’ve analyzed it. He must see that you have four sons and is scheming to take advantage of us."

Jiang Siping adjusted his glasses. Looking at Feng Cuihua, he complained, "We’re family, so we need to discuss big decisions. Your marriage is a big deal, yet you just picked someone without telling us. Do you know his character? Is he a good person? What if he abuses you?"

The brothers took turns speaking, bombarding her continuously, trying to dissuade Feng Cuihua from marrying.

But Feng Cuihua was very stubborn. "I’ve known Brother Zhang for many years. I know his character very well. He’s a very good person, and I want to be with him!"

No matter what the four said, she was unmoved. To be honest, Zhang Qingyuan’s children were far more filial than her own four sons. When they learned about the marriage, they had visited her at the nursing home beforehand, bringing various gifts. They called her "Mom" very sweetly and even promised to be filial to both of them in the future. This was in sharp contrast to her own four sons... None of them had called Zhang Qingyuan "Dad" even once.

Meanwhile, on the sofa, Jiang Daping and his brothers saw this and tried again to persuade her. "Mom, we’re only thinking of your best interest. You’re old now and easily deceived. Zhang Qingyuan really isn’t the right person for you."

"Didn’t you see how he treated us just now? Even his own sons wouldn’t be ordered around like that, right?"

"You’re not even married yet, and he’s already taking such liberties. If you marry him, won’t he have us completely under his thumb?"

"Mom, listen to me. You’re already so old; there’s no need to get married."

The four surrounded Feng Cuihua, launching a verbal onslaught. It was just like decades ago when they were young and dating, and Feng Cuihua had lectured them. Only now, the roles were reversed; it was about old age instead of young love.

"I’ve said it before! I am going to marry Brother Zhang! This is my own business, so don’t interfere!"

But Feng Cuihua was impervious to their pleas, completely ignoring their words. Out of helplessness, Jiang Siping could only snort. "Mom, you’re seventy-five now. By law, we are your guardians, and we have a right to be involved in your affairs. Doesn’t your marriage require our consent?"

Saying this, he clearly stated their position: he and his brothers disagreed with this marriage. They declared they would do everything to prevent Feng Cuihua from marrying.

"You... you... you all..." Feng Cuihua stared intently at the four in front of her, her body trembling with anger. Before the court’s decision, none of her four sons had cared about her, nor had they mentioned anything about guardianship. But now, to stop her from getting married, they were using guardianship as an excuse!

"I’m telling you!" She looked resolutely at her four sons and said, "Getting married is my own affair. Whatever you say is useless!"

Jiang Daping and his brothers exchanged looks, wanting to continue persuading her. But then they saw Zhang Qingyuan hurriedly approaching. "Cuihua, are you ready? The guests have all arrived; the ceremony is about to begin."

Feng Cuihua took a deep breath and composed herself. She no longer paid any attention to Jiang Daping and his brothers.

Meanwhile, Jiang Daping and his three brothers all lowered their heads, not daring to look Zhang Qingyuan in the eye.
