Chapter 334 The Elderly of This Era



She chose this time specifically because her mother was playing cards and everyone else was at work or school, so there was no one at home.

Otherwise they will nag me again.

She went to move her things and the old lady came in to help.

She looked at Lin Yuyao and asked, "Are you Xiaoqin's colleague?"

"Yes, grandma." Lin Yuyao replied.

The old lady smiled and said, "What a pretty girl, are you dating?"

Lin Yuyao: β€œβ€¦β€ Old people always like to ask these questions.

Before she could say anything, Song Qin next to her said, "Grandma, she's already married, don't ask around."

"Oh, you're married. You're married at such a young age? Oh, our Song Qin doesn't even have a partner. Xiao Qin, look at her. When are you going to find a partner?"

Song Qin: β€œβ€¦β€

This made Lin Yuyao very embarrassed.

"Little girl, you are Xiaoqin's friend, please help persuade her. Women are not like men. Women cannot get married when they are older. She will be thirty soon. If she doesn't get married, her life will be over."

The old lady pulled Lin Yuyao aside to complain, which made Lin Yuyao even more embarrassed.

"Grandma, finding a partner is a matter of fate. Maybe Sister Song's fate hasn't arrived yet. When fate arrives, she will naturally find a partner."

"What a mess! Finding a partner doesn't depend on fate, it depends on the red string in the hands of the matchmaker."

Lin Yuyao: β€œβ€¦β€

"Then... just wait for the matchmaker to pull the strings."

"I can't wait. Lao Yue is too busy. I have to grab the red thread."

ah?

This was the first time she had heard of this theory.

I would like to hear the details.

"Why?"

The old lady took Lin Yuyao's hand and said, "Look at the people nowadays, especially Xiaoqin's parents. They are more fertile than pigs."

Lin Yuyao: β€œβ€¦β€ This group of people seemed to be the most fertile. But when it came to family planning for this generation, they stopped having so many children.

"Having so many children, the matchmaker must be exhausted. So you can't rely on the matchmaker to help you find a love match. You have to take the initiative to do it yourself."

Is there such a saying?

Lin Yuyao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but in order to appease the old man, she could only nod and said, "Okay, I will definitely help persuade him."

"Thank you."

"By the way, do you know any unmarried men? It doesn't matter if they are older."

"Sorry, no, the ones I know are all younger."

"Then... those who are divorced and raising children, those whose wives have died and raising children, it's all fine, as long as they are suitable."

Lin Yuyao's mouth twitched wildly, thinking that no matter what happened to Song Qin, she wouldn't have to get divorced and raise a child, or have her wife die to raise a child, right?

"Then I'll keep an eye out and introduce anyone suitable to Sister Song." That was all she could say.

The old lady then laughed happily, agreed repeatedly, and praised Lin Yuyao.

Song Qin had also packed her things in the house, several large bags, and Lin Yuyao helped her move them into the car.

The old lady also came to help, but was stopped by Song Qin.

"Grandma, you take a rest, I can do it myself."

The old lady looked to be in her seventies or eighties. She walked with a hunched back, but she looked quite energetic.

They went back and forth three times before they managed to get all the stuff into the car.

Most of them are books and other things, and they are quite heavy.

After moving the things, Song Qin returned to the old lady and stuffed something into her hand.

The old lady kept declining.

"I don't want it, keep it for yourself. You haven't started a family yet, and you'll need money a lot in the future."

Song Qin forced it into her hand, "Take it."

"Oh, at my age, what do I do with the money?"

Song Qin said, "My workplace is far away, and I may come back every few days. Just take it."

After saying this, he quickly returned to the car and asked Lin Yuyao to drive quickly.

The old lady stood there and watched the car drive away.

After leaving the community, Song Qin said, "Yuyao, don't mind what my grandma said. She didn't mean any harm. She was just worried about me. She was worried that it would be hard for me to get married when I got older and that I would be too lonely. She was also worried that I would never get married and be rejected by my family."

Lin Yuyao expressed her understanding, "That's how old people are. In her mind, women must get married."

"Yes." Song Qin sighed and said, "Look at which woman doesn't want to get married? In their words, even if a woman has a mental problem or is disabled, there are still people who want her."

Lin Yuyao smiled and said nothing.

Anyone want a mentally ill, disabled woman?

What are you going to do?

I just want them to continue the family line.

After it’s used up, I don’t know how hard life will be.

"Sister Song, you don't need to worry too much. Marriage is not everything in life. No matter what others say, what's good is what you feel is good."

Song Qin smiled and looked at her sideways. "I knew you were a progressive person. I can tell from your writings. I thought people like you wouldn't get married, at least not at a young age. I didn't expect you to actually get married, and in such a hurry."

Lin Yuyao smiled faintly and said, "I don't really have a strong desire to get married or not. Everything depends on fate. If fate arrives, I'll get married. If fate doesn't arrive, I can accept not getting married for the rest of my life."

"Oh, so Mr. Fu is very good to you, which is why you chose to enter the marriage at such a young age."

Lin Yuyao nodded, "He is indeed very good."

Hearing her say this, Song Qin felt quite emotional.

A two-hour drive was a long way to go, so now that the topic was brought up, Song Qin started talking.

"Actually, the person I was in love with before was my college classmate."

Lin Yuyao looked at her in surprise.

"I was very happy when I was with him. We were both very poor at that time and we even broke a steamed bun into two halves to eat, but I was still very happy."

"What happened next? Why didn't you get together?"

Song Qin smiled bitterly and said, "When we were poor, we were very simple. We just thought about how to fill our stomachs and didn't think about anything else. But later on, we all stood firm in our work, and our salaries gradually increased. We were no longer poor, but something went wrong."

Lin Yuyao looked at her in surprise again, "What happened?"

"My family knew we had money, so they started asking us for money. My family wanted money, and his family wanted money too. Haha, everyone has to contribute money to support their families. I didn't say anything to him, but he started talking to me first. He scolded me for not caring about my family. He said his family is my family, and my family is my brother's family..."

At this point, she burst out laughing.

"He gave all his salary to his mother and urged me to give it to her as well. He said that his mother was the head of the family and all the money earned should be handed over to her for management and then distributed uniformly. There were so many people in his family, and he had four brothers alone, and he was the most promising one.

The whole family has put all their efforts into supporting him, and they are waiting for him to graduate and earn money to support the whole family. Before we get married, they are asking me to pay their wages. What will happen after we get married? Do you think I am stupid? Why would I marry such a family?"
