Chapter 1958: Chapter 1960: We’ll Wait Until Eldest Sister and Fourth Brother’s Marriage Is Settled Before Ours
Wang Kui’s words left everyone utterly surprised.
After all, unless life is completely unbearable, nobody is willing to become a son-in-law who lives with his wife’s family. The title of live-in son-in-law is not very appealing, as people think he couldn’t make it elsewhere and came to his father-in-law’s house to freeload, and the children born would follow the father-in-law’s surname.
Yang Qiu stood there utterly bewildered; Wang Kui hadn’t even discussed this matter with her, "Brother Wang, you..."
Before she could finish, Wang Kui interrupted her, "This way you wouldn’t have to leave your family."
Wang Kui’s words instantly warmed Yang Qiu’s heart. She remembered how she had said the same to those aunties and old women back then, expressing the desire to find a live-in son-in-law so she wouldn’t have to leave her family. She truly couldn’t bear to part with her family, and having just returned home, she hadn’t spent enough time with them and didn’t want to leave so soon.
Even though it was meant to placate those aunties and old women, it was also her heartfelt wish.
She never imagined that she would find a man willing to marry her and even become a live-in son-in-law for her. How could she not be moved?
Seeing this, Yang Laoda also spoke up, "Wang Kui, have you thought this through? If you become a live-in son-in-law, your registration will be transferred to our family. If you have children in the future, their registration will have to be with our family, bearing our surname."
Yang Laoda wanted to make sure there were no regrets, so he laid things out clearly. This matter of registration is not easily done; it must be recorded in the family register. Besides the wife, a live-in son-in-law is considered an outsider, and the children’s generation must bear the family’s surname.
This means that even if they have children, in the future, they would be part of the old Yang Family.
"Uncle, I’ve thought it through. It doesn’t matter what surname the children have; they are mine, with my blood running through them. A surname is merely a label," Wang Kui stated.
Yang Laoda nodded satisfactorily. Although he initially disagreed when Yang Qiu mentioned wanting a live-in son-in-law, he had to admit his daughter’s points made sense. He too wanted his daughter to stay at home, but finding a willing live-in son-in-law was difficult; no one wanted to do it.
But now that someone was willing and it was his daughter’s choice, he had no objections. He wished his daughter could stay home, so he said, "If that’s the case, then become our family’s live-in son-in-law. Xiaoqiu has her own courtyard, and we’ll arrange it as your new home. It’s all new there. Everything needed for the wedding will be prepared, not missing a single item, and your aunt and your three sisters-in-law will handle the preparations."
Wang Kui didn’t refuse; he’d already decided to become a live-in son-in-law, so he wouldn’t be picky. He’d use their things, and in return, he’d work more at the Escort Agency, take on more jobs, and help the family earn more Silver.
Yang Laoda continued, "We don’t need to trouble a matchmaker. We’ll just choose a good day ourselves, throw a big banquet, invite villagers to come drink the wedding wine, and host the wedding ourselves. What do you think, is that alright?"
Yang Laoda was seeking Wang Kui’s and Yang Qiu’s opinion. Regardless, the wedding needed to be properly arranged.
Wang Kui had no objections; he would follow the elders’ decisions.
But at this moment, Yang Qiu spoke up, "Dad, we don’t need to rush with the wedding. Elder sister hasn’t married yet, and fourth brother also hasn’t married. If we go ahead with mine now, wouldn’t it be inappropriate? We can wait until elder sister’s and fourth brother’s weddings are done, then have ours."
