Importance Of Family
Short story speaks loud about what is the meaning of 'Family'!

There was a deserted road. There had been no traffic there for a long time, yet there was a bus stand where two buses came every day, which took people from the village to the city and from the city to the village.
In such a situation, two old men were standing at the bus stand and discussing something, and after some time, one of them, for some reason, started talking loudly with him.
Let's find out what they were talking about.
A brother said that he has a granddaughter who is now of marriageable age. She has just completed her engineering, is also working, and is beautiful in appearance. His height will be around 5”5. If you have any boy in mind for her, then tell me.
So the second brother replied to him and said What kind of boy does your granddaughter like? What kind of family does she want to live with?
The first brother said, Nothing special, but the boy should have completed his master's degree in engineering, the boy should have his own house, his own car, and a garden, AC, etc., in his house. He should have a good job and a good salary.
The second man was a little surprised to hear this, but still asked him how much his salary should be?
The first brother replied that he wanted a boy with a salary of at least $100k.
The second brother said that that was all, or are there any other conditions?
So the brother immediately said yes, and the most important thing is that the boy should live alone; he should not have parents or siblings. What is the point of living together if there are a lot of fights?
The second brother's eyes widened a little after hearing this. His eyes got wet, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his eyes, and said again, "I have a friend's grandson who has no siblings, his parents have also passed away in an accident, he has a good job, his salary is about one and $150K yearly, he lives in a luxurious bungalow, he has a car and servants etc. Everything is fine with him."
Hearing all this, the first brother's eyes immediately lit up, he immediately told him to get the relationship finalized.
The second brother said, "But the boy has the same condition that the girl also has, no parents, siblings, or any relatives." As he said this, it seemed as if a lump had formed in his throat.
After clearing his throat, he said again, "If your entire family commits suicide, then the matter can be finalized." Your granddaughter will get married there and she will be very happy... and...
Before he could say anything more, the first man interrupted him and said, "Hey, are you talking nonsense? What is our family doing, committing suicide? Who will stand by her side in her happiness and sorrow after her marriage tomorrow?"
So the second man immediately answered him and said, "Yes, friend, your own family is family and no one else's family is anything?"
Friend, explain to your grandchildren and great-grandchildren the importance of family, how important everyone is to us, the elders of the house, and the younger boys of the house. If all this is not there, people will forget the importance of happiness and sorrow, and everyone's life will become dull.
The first man could not say anything because of shame.
