"Thank you," Su Hongchen sincerely thanked Jiang Yexun, letting go of his guarded demeanor.
Jiang Yexun regretfully said, "I should have arrived earlier. That way, Xiaoxiao wouldn't have fallen into the river in the first place."
"Accidents happen, and gratitude should not be the foundation of a marriage. Although the slogan says that both boys and girls are equal, the bias toward males is very serious in the countryside. However, our family's beliefs are entirely different. I don't want my sister to feel pressured when it comes to having children," Su Hongchen emphasized.
"There won't be any pressure. None of the children we have will be surnamed Jiang. One can have Xiaoxiao's surname, and the other can have my mother's surname. Moreover, my mother loves my sister more than me since I was a child. The bias towards males doesn't exist in our family. As for my father... whatever thoughts he has, it has nothing to do with me, and he can't control me," Jiang Yexun said confidently.
