Chapter 128
Lei Mu and Lei Xiao saw Yao Yi's transformation, but didn't say anything.
Anyway, Yao Yi was kind to them, so they were kind to Yao Yi as well.
But they all knew that Yao Yi's transformation was probably due to her last miscarriage. Yao Yi was probably afraid that Lei Xiao would divorce her and that the Lei family would dislike her even more, so she made the change after learning from her mistakes.
Lei Xiao and Lei's mother were very satisfied with this. This was the daughter-in-law/daughter-in-law they wanted.
…
Ever since Ye Fuyue told Xiang Jialiang about Wu Qiaoer, Xiang Jialiang was very happy and positive, and urged Ye Fuyue to arrange a meeting between them.
In order to prevent Xiang Jialiang from being dissatisfied with Wu Qiaoer's family situation in the future, Ye Fuyue repeatedly emphasized Wu Qiaoer's family situation to Xiang Jialiang.
"Qiao'er has a job now, but after she gets married, she might have to give her job to her brother, otherwise he'll have to go to the countryside. By then, you'll be the only one supporting the family, and you'll have to rent a house outside. Can you handle that?"
"Sister-in-law, you've told me this countless times, and I can handle it. My father is the sole breadwinner, so it's my responsibility to support my wife. Besides, renting a house is not only for my wife, but also for myself. We don't have any extra houses, and it wouldn't be convenient for me to still live at home after getting married."
"You want to rent a house outside. Do your parents have any objections?" Ye Fuyue asked.
"I haven't told my parents about this yet. But even if they object, what can they do? I moved out because there was no room at home."
"What if your parents don't agree and insist on letting you live at home?" Ye Fuyue asked again.
"Then there has to be room for everyone to live at home. If there's no room at home, why do we have to squeeze in?" Xiang Jialiang said.
After that, Xiang Jialiang asked, "Sister-in-law, does your friend's condition for meeting me mean that we have to rent a house outside after we get married?"
"Not really. I told her about your family's financial situation, but she didn't mention anything about this. I just asked casually." Ye Fuyue said.
Xiang Jialiang said "Oh" without thinking much about it.
But in reality, Ye Fuyue wanted to see how sincere Xiang Jialiang was about what he had said to her last time. She also wanted to see if Xiang Jialiang was a mama's boy who would obey his parents if they raised any objections.
After all, she wanted to introduce Xiang Jialiang to her best friend, and she didn't want to let Wu Qiaoer down.
At least, based on her current investigation, Xiang Jialiang is still a relatively reliable person.
So, Ye Fuyue arranged for Xiang Jialiang and Wu Qiaoer to meet in the park.
After introducing each other, Ye Fuyue left, and the rest was up to the two of them to do.
Ye Fuyue strolled to the supply and marketing cooperative and chatted with Yu Tong.
After Yu Tong learned that Ye Fuyue had arranged a blind date for Wu Qiaoer, she teased her, "You've become a matchmaker!"
Ye Fuyue raised her chin proudly. "I'm much more reliable than those matchmakers. I don't introduce people to each other just because they're men or women. I only arranged for Xiang Jialiang to meet Wu Qiaoer because I thought he was a reliable person."
"If Qiao'er gets together with him, you will get a red envelope." Yu Tong said.
"Really? If it really works, I can get a red envelope?" Ye Fuyue said in surprise.
"Yeah. Every couple that the matchmaker introduces gets a red envelope, so you must have one too."
Ye Fuyue looked forward to it. "No wonder some people like to be matchmakers. This is also a business. However, as long as Qiao'er is happy, it doesn't matter whether there is a red envelope or not."
Ye Fuyue asked about Yu Tong's recent situation.
"There's been some progress regarding the housing allocation for Chen Che and his colleagues in their unit. I estimate the quota will be released in a month or two," said Yu Tong.
"That's great. Then you will have your own house." Ye Fuyue was happy for Yu Tong.
Ye Fuyue chatted with Yu Tong for a while and then strolled back to the slum.
She didn't go to see Wu Qiao'er today, nor did she care about Wu Qiao'er and Xiang Jialiang's relationship. Instead, it was early the next morning that Ye Fuyue couldn't wait to go to the cannery to find Wu Qiao'er.
"How is it? Did you have a good chat yesterday? Are you satisfied with Xiang Jialiang?" Ye Fuyue asked three times in a row.
Wu Qiaoer's face showed a hint of shyness. "The chat was good. We had dinner together and he even gave me a ride home. I think he's more down-to-earth than any other guy I've dated before."
"So are you two planning to be together?" Ye Fuyue asked.
Wu Qiaoer nodded. "Well, when he sent me home last night, he told me about his situation and that he planned to move out after getting married. He said he would work hard to qualify for a separate apartment. I also told him about my family situation, including my current job. He said you told him about it, but he didn't care."
"Yes, I have told him. I'm worried that after you two meet, he will care about this again. Wouldn't that be a waste of feelings and time?" Ye Fuyue said.
"It's good to make it clear upfront. There's no need to hide things like this. If the other party is very concerned about this, and I don't tell him until after we're married, I'll be the one who suffers. It's better to tell him earlier." Wu Qiaoer agreed. "Anyway, we told him everything about our situation. He said he was quite satisfied with me and asked what I thought of him and whether I was willing to be with him. I agreed."
Ye Fuyue was very happy. She didn't expect that she was half successful on her first try as a matchmaker.
But suddenly, she thought of something and asked worriedly, "Qiao'er, do you really want to be with him because he satisfies you in every way, or is it because of the pressure from your family?"
Wu Qiaoer was silent for a few moments. "I think it's both. Although I didn't fall in love with Xiang Jialiang at first sight, I do think he's a decent person. He's also good-looking and has a good job. He's better than the blind dates I've met before. He's suitable in every way."
"Well, then you should just look around first. If you feel that the two of you are not suitable, don't force yourself, and don't get married casually because of family pressure." Ye Fuyue emphasized again and again.
In this world, love at first sight is rare after all, and most relationships still require getting along.
Wu Qiaoer nodded solemnly.
Wu Qiaoer still had to go to work, so Ye Fuyue didn't chat with her for long. After understanding the general situation, she went back.
After returning to the compound, Ye Fuyue ran into Cui Yongfang who was sweeping the floor outside.
Although it was already May and the weather was getting warmer, Cui Yongfang was wearing a lot of clothes and wrapped herself tightly. Her complexion was also very bad, pale and bloodless.
Ye Fuyue couldn't help but look at Cui Yongfang a few more times.
Why is it that Cui Yongfang's complexion is getting worse day by day after she came out of confinement?
Cui Yongfang also saw Ye Fuyue, but she looked away indifferently and didn't want to pay any attention to Ye Fuyue.
Ye Fuyue didn't want to pay attention to her, so she just looked at her a few more times and walked towards her home.
Suddenly, the sound of a baby girl crying was heard in the room behind Cui Yongfang.
