'Why do things like this always happen to our Li family?'
Seeing his grandfather's expression, Li Changyu quickly explained, "Grandpa, I'm just asking a hypothetical question. Nothing's going on right now. I just want to know, if the person I choose doesn't meet your, Mom's, and Dad's expectations, would you still let me make my own decision? For example, maybe her family is poor, or she isn't very pretty, or perhaps she isn't that capable. In short, what if she falls a little short of your ideal for a daughter-in-law? Would you still give me your blessing?"
Li Mingrui finally relaxed and chuckled. "We're country folk. We can't expect you to marry a princess. As long as the important things are in order, we'll certainly respect your choice. A poor family or not being pretty doesn't matter much. But as for being 'capable'... that's something to weigh carefully. Changyu, you wouldn't want a lazy wife, would you? Someone like Granny Hua—would you like that?"
