Zhou sincerely looked at Song Yunan, “Little Nuan, to be honest, we really owe you our gratitude.
Without you leading Xiaohua, let’s face it, our Xiaohua wouldn’t have had the fate to engage in such a perfect match.”
Song Yunuan humbly responded, “It’s also because Xiaohua is hardworking and ambitious, which is why she has such a future.”
The atmosphere was harmonious as Old Mrs.
Zhou continued, “You’re right, if they take a liking to each other, they’ll certainly get engaged.
If we miss this chance, there won’t be another one like it.
I reckon if they co to an agreent, the wedding would be scheduled around New Year’s Day.
Anyway, they definitely have to get married before the New Year.”
She imdiately turned to Song Yunuan and said, “The matchmaker ntioned that the man’s ho is not far from the market, so our Xiaohua will still be able to go to work as usual.
It won’t affect her job at all, and they didn’t say they wouldn’t let her work after getting married.”
Zhou Xiaohua couldn’t hold back and blurted out, “If I was just sitting at ho, the matchmaker wouldn’t even co to propose, it’s all because I have a job and earn a good amount.
Grandma, I’m telling you, if I get married, I won’t be able to bring a single penny ho.”
A pained expression appeared on Old Mrs.
Zhou’s face.
Yet she still said, “We can’t just keep you at ho because of this.
Although your grandma values boys over girls, to tell the truth, I’ve never treated you badly, have I?
If you find a good place to settle down, what difference does it make if your grandma wants money or not?”
Xiaohua was not moved in the slightest and bluntly asked, “You may not want money, but is it because the betrothal gift they’re offering is generous?
Besides, I’ve t the guy, and I don’t like him at all.”
Old Mrs.
Zhou’s eyes bulged with anger.
Though she didn’t dare to scold Zhou Xiaohua, she glared fiercely at Xiaohua’s mother, who was standing silently to the side, “It’s all because you spoil her.”
Xiaohua’s mother gave a bitter smile, “Mom, you say it as though I broke my leg on purpose to trick Xiaohua into coming back.
I haven’t complained about that, so why are you saying I’m spoiling her?”
Unconcerned, the old lady retorted, “So what if you broke your leg?
Before Liberation, there was that bald guy—who was it?
The whole country cursed him, but in the end, he left and still lived a life of luxury…”
What kind of comparison was that?
Where’s the logic in this?
Old Mrs.
Zhou looked at Song Yunuan with a smile, “Little Nuan, if this works out, you’ll be Xiaohua’s benefactor.
She couldn’t have found such a good match on her own.
You must co to the wedding banquet when the ti cos.”
Zhou Xiaohua’s face turned red, and she stomped her feet in frustration, “The deal’s not even close to being struck yet, Grandma, what are you going on about?”
Song Yunuan said, “Grandma Zhou, if Xiaohua gets engaged, even if I’m not in Nanshan County Town, please rember to call .
I was actually planning to take Xiaohua to work in Beidu next year, but if she gets married, she obviously can’t leave for the ti being, and I’ll have to find soone else.”
To Old Mrs.
Zhou, this statent sounded as startling as a clap of thunder.
What did she an?
Little Nuan was going to take Xiaohua to Beidu?
Heaven!
That’s Beidu!
Old Mrs.
Song had made the other old ladies green with envy by taking her grandson to Beidu.
Although she looked the sa, Old Mrs.
Song seed different after returning from Beidu.
If Xiaohua went to Beidu, wouldn’t she too have a chance to go along?
Zhou Xiaohua’s eyes also widened in surprise, looking at Song Yunuan incredulously.
But she knew that Song Yunuan wouldn’t make up a lie just for the sake of matchmaking.
She must have such an arrangent in place.
She grabbed Song Yunuan’s arm, excitedly asking, “Really?
Is it true?
Are you really going to take to Beidu?”
Song Yunuan nodded, “Of course it’s true.
But life-changing decisions are equally important, and everything should be decided by the Zhou family.
Just pretend I never said anything.
Honestly, after hearing Grandma Zhou’s words, I didn’t want to say anything.
An influence on a lifelong matter like this could lead Grandma Zhou to bla .
But having spent so much ti with Xiaohua, I truly need more staff in my Beidu company, and I have already arranged a position for Xiaohua.
I’m worried that if she found out later, she might bla .
So I had to speak up.
However, it’s all up to you, and this shouldn’t be a concern.
After all, if she goes to Beidu and can’t find soone she likes, it might also delay Xiaohua’s happiness.”
Song Yunuan was not speaking on a whim.
Her Fanhua is not a state-owned company, which many people don’t recognize yet.
Out of all the people she knew, only Xiaohua was flexible, adaptable, and didn’t mind working for a private company.
And Xiaohua is very efficient, which is very important.
At this stage, she needs soone like that.
But what she just said is true too.
It’s definitely not an idea born from trying to obstruct.
In any case, it’s all coming together now.
Song Yunuan patted Zhou Xiaohua on the shoulder and, changing the subject, said, “But on the other hand, going there might not necessarily be better than here; after all, it’s not ho, and you know fewer people there, so you might not find a suitable match.
Besides, even if you do get married, you can still go.
You can bring your family with you, even your in-laws.”
“Since Aunt Zhou is okay, I’ll be on my way.
And one more thing, there’s no need to rush; it won’t be until next year anyway.”
Over there, Old Mrs.
Zhou saw Song Yunuan really start to walk out of the yard and then noticed the handso Gu Huai’an leaning against the car.
Without Song Yunuan, people from the village wouldn’t even know where to begin to see such a figure.
The old lady took several looks.
Such a handso young man—she really saw one for the first ti.
She imdiately called out to Song Yunuan, “Little Nuan, you have to prioritize Xiaohua; she’ll graduate from her vocational school next year, and she’s not in a hurry to get married.
Anyway, she’s not interested in him, and there isn’t a suitable match yet.”
She had figured it out just a mont ago.
Song Yunuan was like a phoenix, and the benefits of following her were obvious even to a fool.
Even if it was difficult to find a match in Beidu, as long as Xiaohua did well and followed Song Yunuan with all her heart, could Song Yunuan ill-treat her?
Wasn’t this just like the old saying about basking in reflected glory?
Anyway, this stubborn girl doesn’t agree.
Why should she play the villain?
Moreover, if she really got married, people bring their husbands and in-laws with them to Beidu.
Could they bring her, the grandmother?
If she went to visit, they might even disdain her.
But what if she wasn’t married yet?
Then her going there as the grandmother would be ever so justified and dignified.
Maybe she could even go shopping with Old Mrs.
Song by that ti.
Oh, my goodness, she really did want to see Beidu in her lifeti.
Zhou Xiaohua also ran over and clung to Song Yunuan’s arm, saying she would definitely study hard and not let her down.
After the fact, Old Mrs.
Zhou told her family how smart Xiaohua was, and to just leave it to her.
The family: …
Anyway, nobody calculates quicker than you.
—————–
At this ti, the logistics departnt of Beidu University issued a notice stating that as of October, the food supply would increase by thirty pounds per person on top of what they already had.
It was said that soone had managed to get grain from abroad.
Mother Lin said to Aunt Bai, “I don’t know who it is, but they managed to get grain from abroad, which is really amazing.”
Aunt Bai was a bit anxious.
