Wang Hua raised her eyelids, but her hands were still cleaning the table.
"What's wrong? Didn't Song Yuan say we're fine?"
Xiao Yu sighed, his face full of worry.
"Song Yuan said we'd get married after he found a job, but how many rural kids ever find a job?"
"Don't you know how many high school students there are in the next village? Three or four of them haven't been able to find a job. Song Yuan's family isn't well off, and he doesn't have the resources to help them..."
"I heard that jobs in the city are selling for seven or eight hundred dollars each. Even if our two families emptied our savings, we still couldn't come up with that much money!"
Sometimes, work is something that money can’t buy.
"Yesterday, I sympathized with their lack of firewood and offered to send a bundle over. But the old woman from the Song family immediately blocked me out and said they didn't need us to send them firewood for the next year."
"That's quite polite of you to say. Who doesn't know what he's planning? Isn't he just trying to use this opportunity to break off the engagement?"
"No matter how much Song Yuan likes our Ru'er, how can he win over that old widow?"
Xiao Yu was filled with anger when he mentioned Old Lady Song.
When the marriage was discussed that year, Mrs. Song agreed immediately.
Seeing that although this widow was usually strong, she was a man of her words, he agreed at that time, and she had also paid so much for the Song family.
For example, when someone else's child becomes successful, he or she will turn against you.
Although Xiao Yu was angry that his son was useless, he hated Old Lady Song, the ungrateful person, even more.
"If this continues, our daughter won't have a good life after marrying. It's better to cancel this marriage and let our child stay at home. It's really not worth it to find her a son-in-law in the future!"
Xiao Yu came up with this idea after careful consideration for several days.
Huang Hua had tears in her eyes, and she stopped moving her hands and simply sat down next to him.
"My poor little girl...it's all my fault..."
"How many good qualities does this live-in son-in-law have? I..."
Wang Hua began to sob.
"After all, she's our own daughter. We can't just give her away to someone else to be ruined. So, mother, let's get ready to break off the engagement!"
Xiao Yu's eyes gradually became firm.
"We don't have to initiate the process of cancelling the engagement. When they do, we'll take back everything we've spent over the years... It's about a hundred or two hundred dollars, and we'll leave it all to our daughter!"
Wang Hua also felt a little sorry.
In the entire village, Song Yuan is the most popular unmarried man, and he stands out the most.
Apart from being a little poor, there are almost no disadvantages.
The most important thing is that this person is very good at studying. He always ranks among the top three in the county in every exam and has never been demoted.
It's just bad luck, otherwise he would at least be a college student.
If you say you failed the job exam after so many attempts, it simply means you don’t have any connections…
The most important thing is that Song Yuan is good-looking.
He is on par with this newly arrived educated youth from mainland China.
It’s a pity that Lu Zhiqing always has a cold face when he is outside and never looks at people in a good mood.
Song Yuan, however, is gentle to others.
One is gentle, the other is cold.
In other words, no one dared to get close to Lu Zheng...
The couple was worried that such a good marriage could not be realized, but they never thought about Lu Zheng who lived next door.
The next morning, Xiao Ru got up early and sat at the door waiting for Lu Zheng.
Wang Hua felt helpless. Her daughter was not as silly as before, but what did it mean that she stuck to Lu Zhiqing next door all day long?
That is to say, their house is close to the edge of the village, and everyone is busy collecting firewood, so few people know about it.
If she was worried before about the impact this incident would have on her marriage, she is not worried at all now because the other party is determined to cancel the engagement.
