Chapter 51 Longer-term interests

After she had cleaned up the pots and pans, she went inside to say goodbye to Wei Guiqin: "Aunt Wei, I'm going home. My mother is home alone, and I'm worried about her."

"Good girl, go back quickly." Wei Guiqin held her hand and wanted to say something. Finally, she thought for a while and made a promise, "Qiu'er, I will ask Jing Rui to go to your house to propose marriage. As for your mother... Don't worry, no matter what method your aunt thinks of, she will solve that problem."

Lin Zhiqiu probably understood in his heart that he might not be able to give him that house.

However, she still kept a smile on her face: "I understand. You take good care of yourself, I'm going back!"

"Let Jingrui take you there."

"No need. It's so close, I can go back by myself. I'll come to see Auntie tomorrow!"

Lin Zhiqiu politely declined Su Jingrui's offer to send her home and went home by herself.

Mother Lin had just finished her corn porridge when she saw Lin Zhiqiu coming back. She looked unhappy and knew that things must not be going well. So she asked her, "Qiu'er, what did the Su family say?"

Lin Zhiqiu sat down on the stool and said, "Mom, I don't want a dowry or a job. The Su family was so happy. Originally, Su Hanyan went to live in the factory, and we thought that the house would be vacated anyway. But she made a fuss and refused to give it to us. She made a big fuss at home. Jingrui's mother almost beat Su Hanyan! Unfortunately, she sprained her waist and didn't get the house in the end."

Seeing her daughter depressed, Lin's mother comforted her: "Don't worry. If you have a good relationship with Wei Guiqin, you will definitely not suffer any loss. Su Dajiang is already the workshop director, and the factory will definitely distribute houses in the future. We can think of a way then!"

"What should we do now?" Lin Zhiqiu looked at the dark room worriedly. It was cold everywhere. They were so tight on finances that they couldn't even afford a coal stove.

The cold wind blew in from the broken window frame, bringing with it a bone-chilling chill. Even though I was wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket and cotton pants, I couldn't keep out the cold.

She couldn't stand this place for a moment.

"Don't be anxious. See what the Wei family says. If it doesn't work out, just get engaged first! Su Dajiang is already the workshop director of the machinery factory. You will be his future daughter-in-law in the future. Can he ignore your work? We can just suffer a little loss now! Girl, mom has lived to such an old age and understood that the loss in front of us is not a loss. It is for the pursuit of longer-term interests! Although marrying Su Jingrui is unfair to you, there is no better choice than him right now. What do you think?" Lin's mother advised.

Lin Zhiqiu was silent for a long time, then nodded: "I see. Mom, it's cold, I'll go get some hot water to wash your feet."

The next day after breakfast, Shao Yu came to the factory dormitory with her English textbook to learn English. When she saw Su Hanyan, she smiled shyly: "Sister Su, I'm here to learn English with you!"

Su Hanyan was explaining a problem to Zhu Lin when she saw a little head poking in from the door. The little face was red from the cold: "Shao Yu, right? Come in! We are waiting for you!"

"Thank you, Sister Su." Shao Yu walked in obediently, and seeing an empty seat next to the table, she sat down.

After waiting for Su Hanyan to explain the problem to Zhu Lin, she grinned, took out a handful of chocolates with liquor filling from her army green messenger bag and placed them on the desk: "Sister Su, Zhu Lin, please have some candy!"

"Oh, so many." Zhu Lin picked up a piece casually, "How many did you buy? How much did it cost?"
