Married at First Sight Chapter 4804
Although Zeng Xiaoya’s grandparents had long since retired, their medical expertise, combined with their previous experience as professors at medical universities, earned them a rehire at a traditional Chinese medicine hospital after retirement to continue their distinguished careers.
Her parents, however, worked not at the hospital in Dongguan, but at a large hospital in the provincial capital, rarely returning home.
She also had a brother, who worked at a large hospital in another province and also rarely visited.
With her parents and siblings away, her second uncle and second aunt were her closest family members. Her third uncle and third aunt were equally busy, leaving them with no time to care for her younger cousin’s studies.

Fortunately, the Zeng family’s children all had a keen eye for academics, each achieving excellent grades.
Her younger cousin was also considering medicine, and when he chose his major during the second semester of his freshman year of high school, he chose physics, chemistry, and biology, preparing for his medical studies.
Soon, her second uncle and his wife came upstairs for dinner.
Zeng Xiaoya had already served the meal.
Their family ate a simple, simple meal. As they were all medical students, they were very particular about their diet, avoiding heavy oils and salt.
“Xiaoya, are you going to work soon?”
Uncle Zeng asked while eating.
“Yes, I have a night shift tonight. After dinner, I will take a shower and then go to work.”
“Is it okay to change to a new environment? Can you get along with your colleagues?”
“It’s fine, but it’s very tiring and too busy.”
Even she is very busy in the inpatient department and often has to help patients with surgery.
Aunt Zeng said: “Wancheng Central Hospital is the best hospital in Wancheng. Whether it is medical technology or equipment, it is the best in Wancheng. Nowadays, people go to big hospitals when they are sick, so the medical staff are very busy.”
“But no matter how busy you are, Xiaoya, you have to think about your major life events. Your parents are very anxious. I asked your uncle and me to keep an eye on you and introduce you to good men if I see one.”
Zeng Xiaoya is twenty-seven years old, but many people are deceived by her innocent appearance, thinking she’s only twenty-three or twenty-four.
It’s normal for a girl her age to have family elders anxious about her major life events.
This is especially true after Zeng Xiaoya was hurt by her first love three years ago. She declared that men were unreliable and decided she’d never marry again, living a carefree life on her own.
No need to care for her parents-in-law, deal with conflicts between them, or have children and raise them—how wonderful
it would be. At the time, she was heartbroken, and her family simply interpreted her words as a vent for her grief.
But now, at twenty-seven and still without a second relationship, her family fears she’s truly planning to be alone, and they’re worried.
Her parents and brothers aren’t around, so busy they barely talk on the phone. Her parents have asked her second uncle and aunt to keep an eye out for good men and introduce them to her.
“Lin Jian likes you, don’t you consider him at all?”
Zeng’s second uncle interrupted his wife, earning her a glare.
He quickly lowered his head to eat.
Zeng Xiaoya said, “I don’t have any romantic feelings for my senior, and I never have. I just see him as a brother.”
“Besides… I don’t think his family background is right for me.”
After all, they had known each other for several years, and Zeng Xiaoya knew more or less about Lin Jian’s family situation.
Zeng’s second aunt said, “Whether he’s not right for you, don’t worry about your second uncle. He’s just a rough guy and doesn’t see things the same way as we do. Listen to your second aunt. No matter how Lin Jian pursues you, don’t accept him.”
“Let him give up as soon as possible. His family background is not suitable for you. Marriage is not just a matter of two people, but also a matter of two families. His family is very important and cannot be ignored.
