"Qiaoyue, do you agree with me getting married so soon?" Zhang Hongying finally wanted to hear Shen Qiaoyue's opinion.
When Zhang Hongying asked her, Shen Qiaoyue didn't really know how to answer, but since she had been asked, she told her thoughts truthfully.
“Hongying, it’s meaningless to try to escape your family of origin through marriage. The best thing is that you think Meng Xinguo is suitable, you like him, and it’s not forced.” Shen Qiaoyue was trying to set them up, but they hadn’t gotten to know each other completely in just one month, so talking about marriage was really too early.
“Actually, marriage isn’t impossible, but you have to go with the flow. The easier something is to get, the less you’ll cherish it,” Shen Qiaoyue gently comforted Zhang Hongying. “What you need to do is be honest with Meng Xinguo and tell him the truth about your family situation. Make him think carefully about your circumstances. If he is still willing to marry you, you can avoid a lot of risks.”
After Shen Qiaoyue finished speaking, Zhang Hongying fell into thought, nodded and said, "Sister Qiaoyue, you are right. I will find a time to explain things clearly to Xinguo."
“Hongying?” Shen Qiaoyue parked her bicycle and looked at Zhang Hongying, saying, “Don’t be impulsive, but don’t tolerate a bloodsucking family. You can’t suffer alone. You need to let others know. Even if they can’t help you, it will benefit you in the future. You need to let your neighbors know that you’ve been wronged. When you get married, they will come to you, and you can use these neighbor relationships to suppress your family.”
At this point, Zhang Hongying's hopes for family ties are useless; she can only fight her way out on her own.
"Sometimes, marrying well is not as good as living a good life. Meng Xinguo usually seems very honest and kind. I heard he is a good person. Everyone can be good when it comes to marriage, but marriage is a lifelong commitment. You need to think carefully about the daily necessities."
Shen Qiaoyue added, “They are soldiers and often go out. It’s common for them to not come home for a month or two. For example, if you have a child in the future, you may have to take care of it yourself or let his parents take care of it. This will involve the daily interactions of family members, so you need to understand him well before you can decide whether or not to marry him.”
"Sister Qiaoyue, thank you." Zhang Hongying heard Shen Qiaoyue's sincere response, instead of saying that Meng Xinguo was very good and that marrying him would lead to a good life.
Zhang Hongying smiled and looked at Shen Qiaoyue, saying, "I feel very lucky whenever I get close to you."
Over the years, I've worked with Shen Qiaoyue, and she's risen from a clerk to deputy workshop director, and then to director.
Now her life is different; she's doing better than before. Whenever she faces difficulties, Shen Qiaoyue's words always give her some comfort and the courage to face what the future holds.
Shen Qiaoyue said that letting others know about the grievances she suffered was a way to use public opinion to control her family.
Last time, she also used these methods to successfully take everything back from Yang Qingcheng.
Using this method, she suppressed her sister-in-law's desire to exploit her.
Shen Qiaoyue's few words were enough to give her great inspiration.
"Sister Qiaoyue, I sincerely thank you," Zhang Hongying said to Shen Qiaoyue.
In response to Zhang Hongying's gratitude, Shen Qiaoyue gently patted her shoulder and said, "You are a very good person. The fact that you were awakened by a few words shows that you already had this idea in your heart. It's just that you are used to being exploited at home, which makes you timid and hesitant. The kindest person is always the one who gets bullied."
"Hongying, you usually know how to enjoy life and are very good to us. You often give us lots of snacks. It's clear that you are someone who longs for a good life, and I sincerely hope that you can have happiness." Shen Qiaoyue offered her heartfelt blessings.
When Shen Qiaoyue was in postpartum confinement after giving birth, Zhang Hongying brought her a basket of eggs. Eggs are rare, but she brought a whole basket of them.
Jiang Jinyao was in confinement after giving birth, and she helped her a lot by making eggs, knowing that Jiang Jinyao had connections.
Zhang Hongying nodded, gazing at Shen Qiaoyue with emotion.
"I will seize happiness, and like Sister Qiaoyue, I will guard the door of happiness tightly and never let go." Zhang Hongying looked at Shen Qiaoyue with moist eyes.
Hearing this phone call, Shen Qiaoyue was also very moved.
He nodded and smiled, saying, "I'm looking forward to you becoming a member of the family compound. Good luck!"
"Okay, keep it up." Zhang Hongying cheered herself on.
Hearing Shen Qiaoyue's words, Zhang Heping, who was originally unhappy, became less sad and full of fighting spirit.
When it was time to get off work in the evening, Zhang Hongying left early. Shen Qiaoyue saw her anxious back and realized that she was going to find someone.
He smiled helplessly.
As soon as Shen Qiaoyue returned home, before she even entered the door, she saw several children coming out.
"Mom, Mom, there's something delicious at home today!" Da Nian said, picking up a sweet potato and eating it.
Thinking back, Xiao Nian's face was also covered in black marks.
"Eating sweet potatoes is considered delicious?" Shen Qiaoyue asked doubtfully.
"No, meat, it's delicious." Xiangxiang said to Shen Qiaoyue while munching on a burnt sweet potato.
"Meat?" Shen Qiaoyue was even more puzzled. She had only bought a pound of pork and was saving it for dinner.
"The villagers nearby noticed that the wild boars often rooted up the crops at night. Today, the soldiers went into the mountains to hunt wild boars and killed more than a dozen. The villagers suggested sending three to the family compound. After distributing the pork, we came back home and had some big bones stewing." Chu Wanfang explained to Shen Qiaoyue as she came out of the kitchen.
"Wild boars, are there so many?" Shen Qiaoyue asked with even greater curiosity.
"I heard there were a lot of them. Many people went into the mountains and caught nearly a dozen! They said the wild boars injured the people guarding the fields. They also said the wild boars bit people and even ate people. So the leaders decided to go into the mountains to catch wild boars."
