Lin Yu was well-known in the surrounding villages, and being a beautiful young woman, she attracted the attention of many families.
The girl was Captain Lin's niece and also the manager of the workshop.
If I marry her, I can not only build a good relationship with the Lianhua Brigade, but also get a job as a workshop worker.
Alternatively, we could let her open a workshop in her brigade to generate profits for the brigade...
Chen Jianghu, the captain of the Dongshan Brigade, was one of them. He had three sons and two daughters, and his youngest son, Chen Songbai, was still unmarried.
As for his recent close relationship with the young widow in the brigade, Captain Chen didn't care at all; he thought his son was just acting on impulse.
He wanted Chen Songbai to marry Lin Yu and become their third daughter-in-law.
Once Lin Yu marries into the Dongshan Brigade, she will be considered one of their people, and they can open a workshop.
Chen Jianghu felt increasingly pleased with himself, and when he got home, he told everyone about it.
His mother and wife approved of the girl, who was from the city and had reportedly attended high school.
Although Chen Songbai only went to junior high school, he was a smart kid.
The girl's uncle was the brigade leader, and Chen Songbai was the brigade leader's youngest son.
And I heard she's very beautiful.
Isn't this the ideal daughter-in-law?
Chen Songbai's two sisters-in-law looked rather unhappy. They were both from ordinary families, and now the brigade leader's niece, who was from the city, was coming along. Wasn't that putting them at a disadvantage?
Privately, both of them were very dissatisfied with the marriage.
Sister-in-law Chen said with a gloomy face, "She hasn't even married into the family yet, but her in-laws are already beaming with joy."
Chen Ersao pouted: "I don't think Chen Songbai will necessarily be willing to marry Lin Yu. He already has a lover."
"If Chen Songbai refuses to marry her, and his parents force him, we're in for a good show."
In the Chen family courtyard,
"Father, Mother, I, Chen Songbai, will never let Xiaomei down."
The young man standing in front of Chen Jianghu was tall and handsome, with a rather youthful face.
He was Chen Jianghu's youngest son and was spoiled from a young age, so he never held back when speaking to his parents.
He didn't even shy away from saying he liked Xiao Mei, the young widow in the brigade.
Chen Jianghu's face darkened: "Songbai, Qi Mei is a widow!"
Chen Songbai stood up straight and spoke each word firmly: "I know Xiaomei is a widow, and I am not married either. We can date freely now."
"Free love? I think you've lost your mind. You're a perfectly fine young man, going to have a free love affair with a widow."
Chen Songbai frowned and interrupted, "Father, I hope you will stop referring to her as a widow. It's not her choice, don't you know that?"
Chen Jianghu was driven crazy by his foolish son.
"Chen Songbai! I don't care who you date freely, break it off with them. I'll take you to Lianhua Brigade for a blind date sometime!"
...
Lin Yu from Lianhua Brigade was unaware of what had happened in Dongshan Brigade, but recently, many people had come to the Lin family to inquire about her marriage.
When someone first came to ask, Grandma Lin politely declined.
Lin Yu had only been home for a short time, and they didn't want to marry off their child so soon.
Lin Laosan's face turned terrifyingly black, and he seemed to be grinding his teeth to powder.
"Our daughter is not getting married!"
As soon as he said that, Grandma Lin hit him a few times.
“What kind of girl doesn’t get married? Don’t talk nonsense. Let’s just say that Xiaoyu is still young and there’s no rush.”
Lin Laosan insisted, "My daughter won't get married. Daughter, you stay home with your parents. We won't marry those scumbags."
"What's so great about men, Xiaoyu? Listen to your dad, let's not get married."
Lin Yu couldn't agree to that.
She just promised Gu Yunze she would go public, but judging from her father's attitude, it seems going public won't be easy.
"Dad, I'm still young and don't want to get married. Don't worry."
She wasn't lying; she didn't want to get married but she did have a boyfriend, she just omitted one sentence.
Lin Laosan licked his lips: "Who was asking just now? Hu Dayou's family?"
Grandma Lin said it was his home.
Lin Yu didn't know this family very well, and they seemed to have no presence in her life. Judging from Grandma Lin's attitude, she couldn't tell anything from them either. Lin Yu guessed that they were just ordinary acquaintances.
Grandma Lin continued, "Recently, more and more people are asking about Xiaoyu's marriage. You all need to be careful and not agree to anything without thinking."
A girl's reputation is very important. If she accidentally gets her family to agree to something, it will be hard to explain.
Both of them agreed with Grandma Lin's statement and reminded themselves to be wary whenever Lin Yu was mentioned.
Lin Yu didn't feel anything about it, after all, she had a boyfriend, and none of these women could compare to her boyfriend.
Gu Yunze is the most handsome guy within a ten-mile radius.
Lin Yu naturally looked down on the others.

"Have you heard? The leaders are going to inspect the countryside," Song Meili said to Lin Yu.
Lin Yu knew, of course: "It's the new secretary of the commune. He's here to visit our brigade. He'll probably come to the workshop too."
She was all set and eager to see what this new leader was up to.
"By the way, Comrade Song Meili, Comrade Zhang Bing, could you please organize the data on our workshop's inbound and outbound shipments? We'll need to show it to the leaders later."
They are both data clerks in the office; they have all the data stored on hand.
The two nodded, realizing that they couldn't be joking around when it came to work, and went back to their tasks seriously.
As Lin Yu walked out of the office, she saw Li Lanhua, who was heavily pregnant, walking towards her.
"Sister Orchid".
As Li Lanhua approached, she pulled Lin Yu aside and greeted her, "Little Yu, it's been so long since I've seen you. I heard someone's trying to set you up with someone?"
Many people in the village already knew about this. After all, there are few entertainment activities in the countryside, so even the slightest rumor will be talked about.
Lin Yu didn't mind: "Yes, Sister Lan Hua, my grandma has already refused on my behalf."
Li Lanhua herself got married in her twenties, while Lin Yu was not yet twenty, so she felt there was no need to rush.
Besides, she's beautiful and capable, so she has no trouble getting married.
Unlike herself, who looked too much like a man, her parents were so anxious about her marriage, fearing she would never get married.
Fortunately, she is now married and pregnant.
Lin Yu looked at her big belly: "It's about six months along, isn't it?" The timeline is about right.
"Yes, I'm over six months pregnant, and my belly is still this big. This baby has kept me busy with a lot of things."
She could have earned full work points, but her big belly is a hindrance, so now she has to rest after working for a while each day.
She felt restless when she had nothing to do, so she came to see her child's father.
The couple had a good relationship, and Li Lanhua had become more gentle since she became pregnant.
Zhang Bing took extra care of the child.
It's true that children are the glue that holds parents' relationship together.
