Two days later, Cheng Youfu was preparing to pick him up at the station when another letter arrived from home.
The two letters were so close together that he quickly opened them and his face fell. He handed the letter to Yueyue, telling her to show it to her mother.
Cheng Youfu left in a hurry; if he didn't leave soon, it would be too late to pick him up at the station.
The agreement was to bring the person here for dinner first, and then return to the courtyard that Cheng Youfu bought.
Why haven't they brought the person back?
Aunt Wei quickly asked why.
Cheng Youfu hesitated for a long time, unsure of what to say, but he couldn't hide it from anyone. "My mother brought a girl here, saying she wanted me to make a date with her."
Such a big thing happened and they didn't even tell me before bringing the person here!
Wang Wenli and Aunt Cheng had met her before and thought the old lady wasn't senile, so what was wrong with her this time?
Aunt Wei thought so too.
The letter I just received was mailed by Cheng Yousuo right after. He couldn't stop his mother from doing this, and his wife also tried her best to dissuade her, which made his mother angry with his wife. The old lady also insisted on bringing this girl to meet him.
Song Yan: "What do you plan to do?"
Cheng Youfu: "I can't live in that courtyard anymore, and I won't be coming here for the time being either."
I saw that girl arrive in Kyoto, and she was so dazzled that she clearly didn't want to leave.
I'm afraid he'll become clingy and take advantage of me.
I moved to live in the roast duck workshop.
And I told my mother to leave immediately.
My mother was unhappy. She said that since the woman was diligent, I should wait a couple of days before making a judgment, lest I condemn her outright!
Song Yan didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but Cheng Youfu truly treated her like an older sister, so he was like a younger brother to her.
With him at the roast duck workshop, both he and Xiaohu felt at ease. As long as he didn't make any foolish or irrational mistakes, Song Yan was determined to help him out.
Song Yan: "For this kind of thing, it's either yes or no, you can't be wishy-washy."
And did you ask your mother what she told the people in the brigade when she brought that girl here?
If she's already made a decision for you over there, and then brings someone else over, things could get complicated.
Cheng Youfu: "I asked my mother, and she said that the girl wanted to go to the capital to find work. If there was suitable work, she would stay; if there wasn't, she would go back."
My mother paid for her train ticket.
But I could tell my mother didn't want her to go back.
My mother is really getting senile!
Cheng Youfu is a filial son; he wouldn't have said that to his mother unless he was extremely angry.
"Not bad, at least your mother wasn't completely confused about this matter."
"Good fortune, don't worry about the money. Give the girl some money and coax her to go home quickly!" said Aunt Wei.
"Which brigade does her family belong to?" Song Yan asked.
"From Daxi Ridge!"
"Daxi Ridge is so poor, now that she's come out, do you think she'll willingly go back?" Cheng Youfu is furious with his mother.
Qingshan Brigade is far superior to Daxiling Village.
Kyoto and Daishirei Village are like heaven and hell.
Wei Xiaogu is from Daxiling Village.
"Youfu is right about this; she definitely doesn't want to go back."
Although she made sure everything was agreed upon with her family before leaving, they were afraid she might have some ulterior motives.
"Those people at the workshop are pretty capable, aren't they? Pick out two of them to keep an eye on her and prevent her from causing any trouble!" Song Yan said.
Wang Wenli said in surprise, "We need to find someone to watch over her! What can a little girl do?"
Song Yan didn't say anything; the little girl was capable of many things.
Youfu isn't going back, but his older brothers are still in Qingshan Brigade. If the girl insists that Aunt Cheng brought her out to get married, and Youfu doesn't want her, her family might cause trouble over there.
How can the Cheng brothers face the people in the brigade?
People will talk behind their backs.
If the little girl does something like threatening suicide again, people in Kyoto aren't afraid of her. She can't cause any trouble here.
I'm afraid she'll cause trouble back at the brigade, and that would be hard to handle.
Cheng Youfu nodded.
Chang Xiaohu is extremely busy right now, wishing he could do the work of two people.
But when he heard that Cheng Youfu's mother had arrived, he came over earlier today.
I never expected to hear such a lively story.
Cheng Youfu was dejected.
Xiao Hu patted him on the shoulder. "We brothers have plenty of men under our command now, and as for money, who in the neighborhood is richer than us?"
"It's just a young girl, is she really that much of a worry for you?"
Cheng Youfu gave a wry smile.
Cheng Youfu avoided that girl like the plague; he even had Di Minxia come to dinner for his mother.
When Aunt Cheng arrived home, Aunt Wei and Song Yan both knew why they had chosen this girl.
Judging from her appearance alone, this girl had fairer skin than the average rural girl, was not short, and had thick eyebrows and big eyes. She was indeed good-looking.
If Cheng Youfu hadn't seen the world, marrying a girl like that would be a bargain for her.
However, in the less than a year since Cheng Youfu left, the things he has seen and experienced have changed him greatly.
He has shed his naiveté, especially now that he manages so many people. His entire appearance has changed dramatically.
