Back to the ’80s: Living a Good Life with My Family of Six

The Gu family had no sons, only four daughters. Many people in the village were waiting to laugh at them.

But they waited and waited, only to see the Gu family build a small villa, buy a car,...

Chapter 416 Career is the Confidence

After a day of fun at the Xia family, Gu Siqing stayed at home for the next few days. Han Zhengping was very busy, as he had to accompany Su Wenshan to greet guests at the Su family.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Gu Xueqiang arrived on his own, having already broken up with his ex. Gu Siqing was curious about how it happened, as Huang Lifang wouldn't give up on Gu Xueqiang so easily.

"Did the division go smoothly?" Gu Siqing asked curiously.

"I gave some money." Gu Xueqiang said.

Gu Siqing didn't ask any more questions. It was better to solve the problem with money than to keep getting entangled in it.

Seeing that he had broken up with Huang Lifang and Wen Dandan had also broken up with Qi Hang, Wang Yueju thought about introducing them to each other. She told this to Gu Siqing, who said, "I'll mention it to Dandan and see what she thinks."

It is true that Gu Xueqiang is rich and has a successful career, but Wen Dandan is a top student at Tsinghua University, and he is afraid that she will look down on him.

Wen Dandan didn't go home for the Lunar New Year. She was on duty at the company, where she was paid double wages for the holidays. Gu Siqing called the company and asked her to come home. Wen Dandan didn't ask what was going on and just took the bus.

Gu Siqing called her to her room, chatted with her for a while, and then said, "My mother wants to introduce you to someone."

Wen Dandan was stunned, then a little embarrassed. Gu Siqing said to her: "It's not someone else, it's my cousin. He opened a cosmetics agency in Lizhou, and the business is pretty good. He's not bad looking either, and he's at my house now."

At this time, Gu Xueqiang just came out of Gu Jianguo's study. Gu Siqing pulled Wen Dandan to the window and whispered, "It's him."

Wen Dandan looked through the window and saw a young man in his twenties, tall and big. He was not particularly handsome, but looked tough and reliable.

"He looks okay, right? At least he's not short, 1.82 meters." Gu Siqing added, "Although my cousin isn't well educated, he's hardworking and dedicated. He built his company up bit by bit."

Wen Dandan did not discriminate against people with low educational levels. The main reason was that both Gu Jianguo and Gu Erhui had low educational levels, but they still managed to succeed in their careers.

"What do you think? If you think it's okay, you can start dating first." Gu Siqing said again.

If Wen Dandan was more realistic, Gu Siqing felt that she and Gu Xueqiang would be a good match. Although Gu Xueqiang had a low level of education, he was not ignorant. He had been studying a lot in recent years and his qualities in all aspects were not low. Moreover, he could provide Wen Dandan with better living conditions.

Wen Dandan was silent for a while, then said, "Then let's go ahead."

Gu Siqing smiled, "Okay, I'll tell my mom, or you two can talk about it later."

Wen Dandan nodded, and Gu Siqing went to find Wang Yueju and told her what Wen Dandan meant. Wang Yueju was also very happy and immediately said, "I'll go talk to Xueqiang right away. Since we're here, let's talk first."

Wang Yueju said as she entered the study. Gu Xueqiang was talking to Gu Jianguo. Seeing her, he immediately stood up and greeted her. Wang Yueju asked him to sit down, and then said, "I want to introduce you to a girl. The girl is at home now. If you think it's okay, you can meet her."

Gu Xueqiang was stunned. This was too sudden.

"My name is Wen Dandan," Wang Yueju added, "and I'm still studying at Tsinghua University."

When Gu Xueqiang heard it was from National Tsing Hua University, he asked, "Will they agree?"

In fact, he was a little afraid of dating a college student.

"Xiao Si has already told her about your situation, and she said she'd like to meet him." Wang Yueju knew he was hesitant because of his previous girlfriend, so she added, "She's a good girl. She's in school and works at our company. She's very hardworking. She's not the type to get something for nothing."

Gu Xueqiang felt relieved after hearing her say this.

Then Wang Yueju continued, "She had a boyfriend before. His family was quite well-off. He was also a student at Tsinghua University, and his family worked at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. But he wasn't a down-to-earth person, so she broke up with him. This also shows that this girl is not someone who is greedy for fame and fortune."

"Wen Dandan is a good girl." Gu Jianguo also said.

Seeing that they all agreed, Gu Xueqiang said, "Then let's meet."

"Okay, then I'll go tell Dandan." Wang Yueju said as she stood up and left. Gu Jianguo said, "Wen Dandan is serious and responsible. If this works out, it will be a great help to you."

Gu Xueqiang actually doesn’t want to be unhelpful. He just wants to find someone who shares the same ideals as him and can live a stable life with him.

After a while, Wang Yueju came again. She smiled and said, "Let's go to the hall. You two can chat there."

"Okay." Gu Xueqiang straightened his clothes and walked towards the hall. When he entered, only Wen Dandan was there. When she saw him, she stood up. Gu Xueqiang smiled and said, "Sit down."

Wen Dandan also smiled and sat down. A silence fell between the two of them. Then Gu Xueqiang spoke first, "My name is Gu Xueqiang. I'm twenty-three years old, born in the Year of the Tiger. I'm one of two brothers, and I run a small business to make a living."

Wen Dandan wanted to laugh after hearing his self-introduction. She didn't expect this man to be so direct.

"Auntie Wang should have told you about my situation." Seeing Gu Xueqiang nod, Wen Dandan continued, "I have two siblings. My brother is in high school and will take the college entrance exam next year. My parents are farmers."

He is direct, and Wen Dandan also wants to be more direct.

"My family is also a farmer." Gu Xueqiang felt that this girl was very frank when she talked about her family situation, unlike Huang Lifang before, who felt inferior and guilty when talking about her family.

"What does your company do?" Wen Dandan asked.

"cosmetic."

The two chatted for about half an hour, both feeling that it was good, and then left the hall together after exchanging contact information. Seeing that both of them were smiling, Gu Siqing felt that there might be a chance.

Wang Yueju felt the same way, so she said to Gu Xueqiang, "You drive Dandan back home."

Gu Xueqiang also bought a car and drove to Kyoto this time. He had a good impression of Wen Dandan and naturally agreed immediately.

Wang Yueju watched the car leave and said to Gu Jianguo, "Xueqiang is not an easy child. We are relieved that he can find a like-minded and caring wife to live with."

Gu Jianguo didn't think too much about it: "If this one doesn't work, I'll look for another one. Will I still be able to find a suitable partner?"

Now his family is not as poor as before. He has a career and looks good, so it is easy for him to find a partner. But it is not easy to find the right one.

So, whether you are a man or a woman, career is your foundation.
