The world of film and television begins with university lecturers

In the Jiang family's living room, Grandma Jiang slowly sat down on the sofa, the smile from her conversation with Han Tao still lingering in her eyes, her expression relaxed and happy.

Before Jiang Pengfei could even sit down, she spoke first, her tone so serious it was nothing like casual conversation:

"Pengfei, you two, come sit down. I have a few things on my mind that I'd like to talk to you about now."

Jiang Pengfei was about to boil water for tea when he heard this and looked up. He assumed the old lady was still thinking about inviting Han Tao to dinner tomorrow, and casually replied:

"Mom, don't worry, I'll have Aunt Jia go to the market to pick out the best fresh produce first thing tomorrow morning. I'll also take out a jar of the yellow wine I had stored beforehand and prepare it in advance, so I can make sure you have a good time."

"I wasn't talking about eating," Grandma Jiang said gently, sipping a mouthful of warm water from her porcelain cup.

"I think that since Xiao Han and Nan Sun are both single and the two kids are a good match, you two should try to bring them together."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Pengfei paused, his hand holding the cup stopped in mid-air, his eyes filled with astonishment, unable to react to the old lady's sudden idea.

Although she mentioned it briefly during the last meal, no one took it seriously, just considering it a joke during casual conversation. Little did we know that the old lady would actually take it to heart.

Seeing his blank expression, Grandma Jiang slowly laid out her well-thought-out thoughts: "You two as parents, think carefully about Xiao Han's situation!"

  

His parents are no longer alive, and this vast city of Shanghai is a place where he has no relatives or friends. Therefore, he will definitely become closer to his in-laws in the future.

Although this child's hometown is elsewhere, he went to university here, stayed on at the university after graduation, and now lives in Shanghai, so he can be considered a Shanghai resident.

Therefore, being alone is actually a good thing, at least it avoids the complicated entanglements between mothers-in-law, daughters-in-law, and sisters-in-law.

If Nan Sunzhen were to marry into the family, she wouldn't have to deal with a large family of relatives, which would reduce a lot of trouble.

The main reason is that the two houses are right next to each other, and it only takes a short time to go back and forth for a drink of water.

Whether she gets married or not makes almost no difference to her; it will be more convenient for her to take care of their children in the future.

As for Xiao Han himself, his abilities are obvious, and he also owns a respectable old villa on Fuxing Road, so his family is well-off and secure.

Needless to say, the job is a tenured position at a university, respectable and stable.

He speaks with composure and politeness, handles people with perfect tact, and is neither arrogant nor impatient; his temperament far surpasses that of the average young person.

"On the other hand, Nan Sun has been spoiled by you two. She's so old but still so naive and stubborn."

I heard Suo Suo mention her so-called boyfriend before; he's always very attentive to her every whim. Is that a good thing?

Such a person is indeed outstanding among their peers, but they also have their personality flaws, namely, they are insecure and sensitive, and their minds are full of calculations and weighing options, making them unreliable.

It doesn't matter if our Jiang family maintains the status quo. But if there's any trouble, someone with such deep thoughts will definitely be the first to distance themselves and protect themselves.

Of course, I'm not saying that what he did was wrong, nor am I saying that he was bad.

It's a common problem for people like him who have climbed up from the bottom: because what they've achieved wasn't easy, they subconsciously try to protect themselves when things happen.

In comparison, think about it: among the people you know, you absolutely cannot find another young man more suitable for Nan Sun than Xiao Han.

The old lady spoke from the bottom of her heart; having lived most of her life, she had her own set of standards for judging people.

The more she talked, the more she felt the two were a good match. She reached out and patted the armrest of the sofa, urging Jiang Pengfei:

"So, you two should take some time to have a good talk about this. There's no need to rush the two children. First, give them more opportunities to spend time together."

After all, Nan Sun still plans to pursue a doctorate; there's plenty of time ahead, and feelings will naturally develop over time.

Upon hearing this, Dain unconsciously rubbed the edge of the sofa with her fingertips, her expression complex and indescribable.

She disliked the oppressive and gloomy atmosphere in the Jiang family from the bottom of her heart. She had always had a rift with her mother-in-law and was unwilling to let her mother-in-law and husband interfere in Nansun's marriage.

To be fair, setting aside the mother-in-law/daughter-in-law conflict between herself and the old lady, and focusing solely on Han Tao as a person, she couldn't deny that what the old lady said was wrong; in fact, every word she said was true.

Han Tao has no complicated relatives or friends to burden him, has a stable and respectable teaching job, owns a detached old villa in the city center, has an investment vision that is hard for others to match, and is gentle and polite to others.

Moreover, he is neither slick nor ostentatious, and there are no shortcomings in terms of material possessions, character, or temperament.

If I were to become Nansun's partner, I could indeed provide my daughter with a stable and worry-free life, instead of being trapped in the endless conflicts and internal strife within my in-laws' family like I am now, spending half my life in this mess.

However, this recognition did not give Dain the idea of ​​actively trying to bring them together.

Finally, she sighed softly, her tone tinged with indifference and detachment:

"Mom, Xiao Han is indeed a rare and outstanding young man, with impeccable qualities in every aspect."

But Nansun's marriage ultimately depends on her own wishes; otherwise, a forced marriage will only bring her resentment.

So, my idea is to let things take their course. If she doesn't have any feelings for Xiao Han, then it's useless for us elders to approve.

After saying that, he lowered his eyes and said no more, clearly indicating his neutral and detached attitude.

She has always respected her daughter's independent choices and was unwilling to repeat the old ways of the older generation who arranged everything for her.

Even if Han Tao were the perfect match, she wouldn't force her daughter to get along with him.

Hearing his mother and wife express their completely different thoughts, Jiang Pengfei, who was standing to the side, was instead filled with the idea of ​​bringing them together.

The eagerness I had just felt for seeking advice on stocks has now been overshadowed by my thoughts on my children's marriage. The more I think about it, the more I feel that Han Tao is a one-in-a-million choice.

He recalled the details of his meeting with Zhang Anren today, as well as the snippets he had heard from his daughter in the past, and concluded that this man was used to scheming and maneuvering in every aspect of his life.

He's fine when things are going smoothly with Nan Sun, but if his own embezzlement is exposed, he definitely won't be able to provide Nan Sun with any peace of mind.

Han Tao alone was neither arrogant nor humble, had the confidence to stand on his own, did not need to rely on the Jiang family at all, and was also meticulous and insightful.

If Nansun can get together with him, there will be no problem with a stable and prosperous life in the future.

Even for things like investing in stocks in the future, he can often go over to ask for advice, and we'll become family. He certainly won't refuse anymore, so it can be considered a win-win situation.

Thinking of this, he immediately declared, "Mom is truly amazing; she sees things clearly."

Compared to Zhang Anren, and Wang Yongzheng whom I met today, Xiao Han is indeed the most suitable person for Nan Sun.

As he spoke, Jiang Pengfei shifted his body forward slightly, looking at his wife, Dai Yin.

"However, what you said makes sense. We shouldn't force Nansun to make a decision. We should just create more opportunities for them to spend time together through the interactions between neighbors."

As for whether it will work out, that depends entirely on Nan Sun and Xiao Han themselves. We'll just act as elders facilitating things; that's not forcing them, is it?

Upon hearing this, Dain glanced at her husband, clearly aware that he had ulterior motives.

On one hand, she admired Han Tao's abilities and his ability to advise her on the stock market; on the other hand, she genuinely felt that he was a good match for her daughter.

After a moment, she finally nodded and added casually, "Okay, do as you please, I won't stop you."

Just one thing to say beforehand: don't be too deliberate. You all know Nansun's personality.

Seeing her daughter-in-law relent and her son agree, Grandma Jiang immediately smiled contentedly: "Then let's do it that way."

From then on, whenever they talked together, we elders would deliberately step aside to give Nan Sun and Xiao Han some alone time.

As soon as he finished speaking, the soft sound of a key turning came from the entrance hall, and Jiang Nansun then entered the room.

She didn't hear the elders' entire conversation about marriage, only vaguely hearing her own name and Han Tao's name. She asked in confusion:

"Dad, Mom, Grandma, what are you talking about? Why are you mentioning Teacher Han?"

"They didn't say anything specific, just discussed inviting Han Tao over for dinner tomorrow."

Jiang Pengfei had an idea and temporarily put aside the topic of matchmaking: "Nan Sun, remember to go home early tomorrow too."

After all, Han came to visit as soon as he moved in, showing great courtesy. We should formally invite him over for a meal; last time was too hasty.

Jiang Nansun didn't think too much about it and nodded gently in response: "Okay, I'll come back for dinner tomorrow."

However, Suosuo might come over too, so ask Aunt Jia to add a couple more of her favorite dishes.

After saying that, she turned and went upstairs without waiting for her father and grandmother's response, and hurriedly returned to her room to send a message.

Completely unaware that downstairs, her father Jiang Pengfei and grandmother each had their own thoughts and calculations.
