Chapter 571 Eldest Sister 28

"My older sister found a wife for my older brother whose family is so well-off, just find one for me too."

"Okay, I'll put my mind to it for you. It's just that finding a good partner is a rare and hard thing. Luckily, you're only sixteen, so there's no rush to find one."

The second brother wasn't in a hurry, but the third brother was. What would he do if his two older brothers got married?

Wouldn't he be all alone at home then?

"Big sister, what about me?"

“You’ll be fifteen by then, so naturally you’ll have to support yourself.”

"Big sister, please help me find a wife. I'm willing to marry into your family."

"You're only thirteen, what kind of marriage is this? Are you going to be someone's child groom?"

Hmm, that doesn't seem like a bad idea! If I don't want to be a child groom, I can be adopted by someone else!

If we resolve these two issues sooner, wouldn't it be a good deal for her to own this old house?

"Third brother, you're young. If you're willing to be someone's son, I can find you a suitable one."

The younger brother was tempted, saying, "I need to find someone with the same good conditions as my elder brother's in-laws."

"Okay, leave it to me, I'll make sure you have a good life." What a joke!

These days, there are actually people who can't have sons and want to adopt one. They think daughters are a waste of money, and only sons can carry on the family line.

People like Hu Xiaoman's parents are all sensible.

Some people will try anything to have a son, and if they can't have one, they feel like their lives are over and they give up all work and just lie down.

...

A few days later, after hearing about her younger brother's marriage into the Guang family, Zhou, the matchmaker, visited the Guang family again.

"Da Ya, I heard your younger brother married into the family in the next county. What are your plans for your second son?"

Ning Yan laughed, "What a coincidence! My second brother just said a couple of days ago that he also wants to find a suitable family to marry into."

Matchmaker Zhou clapped her hands and said, “I have a suitable match here. There are seven sisters in this family. The older ones want to find a husband for their children, but the older ones are not willing. Only the seventh sister is willing to consider it. I remember your second brother is also sixteen. If you start looking for a husband soon, he can get married in a couple of years.”

"Then please set a date so that my brother can meet with them."

Matchmaker Zhou was truly efficient; in less than a month, she had married off Xiao Er.

She didn't ask for a dowry this time because she still had to raise the child for two more years, so the dowry she asked for was not high, only eighty yuan.

Ning Yan instructed the waiter to hide the money carefully, and to be observant and work hard when visiting people's homes.

Then she watched as the waiter secretly hid the money in the hole in the wall. It was too little; it wasn't worth her taking it once, so she decided to leave it for now.

Next, she'll have to deal with her second sister.

That evening, Ning Yan rode the family's bicycle to town.

What the original owner hated and couldn't tolerate the most was her second sister's disregard for her.

There were only two girls in the family, and their parents' preference for sons over daughters was ingrained in their bones.

The original owner felt neglected and wanted to give this little sister some warmth so that her second sister wouldn't have to suffer as much as she did.

So, whenever her second sister asked for something good, she would give it to her. Later, she didn't even need to ask anymore; she would secretly hide things for her second sister.

It can be said that the original owner raised her younger sister as her own daughter, fought for her to go to school, and took over all the chores that her second sister was supposed to do so so that she could do her homework in peace. It can be said that among the four siblings, she was definitely the best to her second sister.

Even after she got married, the original owner still saved money from her own expenses to give to her.

So her second sister's attitude towards her was what hurt her the most!

She quietly entered Ning Erjuan and her husband's house. The two, who had been smoking sleeping pills, were sleeping like logs. Ning Yan openly searched the house, but after a while, she couldn't find anything of value.

This brat is really too poor. I searched her whole house and only found 283.53 yuan. Compared to what the original owner of this body had put in, it was far less.

So Ning Yan went to Ning Xiaojuan's mother-in-law's house and took away all of her good things.

The mother-in-law should pay for the daughter-in-law's debts; after all, they married Ning Xiaojuan, that ungrateful wretch!

When she got home, the whole family, including the adults and children, were fast asleep. Ning Yan quickly changed her clothes and lay down in the man's arms.

The next day, in town.

Ning Xiaojuan got up early to cook. She touched the clothes that she had left on the side last night twice but couldn't find them. When she opened the curtains, she found that the room, which was originally full, was now empty!

"Yaozu, get up quickly! Our house has been burgled!"

After she shouted, she went straight to where she hid her money, but the box was empty, there was nothing left!

"All my money has been stolen! Damn thief, go call the police right now!"

Huang Yaozu suddenly came to his senses and went barefoot to check the house. Everything of value in their house was gone.

Just then, a wail came from the house across the hall: "Damn it, all the money I've saved up for half my life has been stolen!"

Huang roared, "My radio and watch are all gone!"

"Call the police! Call the police right now! My money!"

The Huang family was in complete chaos, and the neighbors who heard the commotion came to check.

When they saw the Huang family's dire situation, they couldn't help but sigh, "That thief is despicable! He stole everything so cleanly. How will the Huang family survive?"

The five members of the Huang family also thought about this problem together—how would they manage to make a living in the future?

The most valuable things in their house now are those two big pots on the stove. I guess they couldn't pry them open, otherwise they would have taken the pots away too.

Grandma Huang cried even louder.

"Good heavens, I can't live like this anymore!"

"There's not a single grain of rice left in the house, and the money's gone too. What am I going to eat and drink now?"

Actually, their room was a little better off; Ning Yan didn't steal the couple's clothes. Ning Xiaojuan's room was completely empty except for the wardrobes, tables, chairs, and bedding. They even stole their clothes.

The police arrived more than an hour after the report was made. A total of four people came, but the scene had already been destroyed, and no clues were left behind.

However, the Huang family lost over 700 jin of grain, and considering the other things they lost, it would have taken at least three people to carry them all, so it was classified as a gang crime.

Because the loss exceeded three thousand yuan, the public security department treated it as a key case. As a result, the petty thugs suffered, and even the black market was affected. After all, it was likely to be used as a place to sell stolen goods, so it was necessary to investigate.

Fortunately, the police are only responsible for investigating cases; they don't concern themselves with whether the black market should exist.

Therefore, the black market did not close down.

But that was it. After more than a month of investigation, they still couldn't find the thief, and gradually, no one mentioned the theft case anymore.

...

Time quickly drew to a close, and Ning Yan finally found a good place for her younger brother.

The other party is a forest ranger. More than ten years ago, he was injured in an accident and lost his ability to have children. His wife later ran away and took his only daughter with her. Some relatives wanted to adopt the child, but he refused, fearing that he would not be able to raise her properly.

Ning Yan chose him because his workplace was in a remote location, making it difficult for him to enter the city, and it was far from their area.

After meeting the younger brother, the other party thought the child looked well-behaved and cute, and since he had lost his parents, they agreed.

Before leaving, he gave Ning Yan one hundred yuan as a token of gratitude for the hard work his family put into raising her.

Ning Yan accepted the money without any shame, because the children in her family were truly raised by the original owner herself, and she felt no guilt about accepting any amount of money.

The mistress was taken away by her new father.
