Old man Qiao's good idea was to act as a matchmaker for his ex-daughter-in-law and marry off the young widow.
In Old Man Qiao's opinion, as long as Gu Qingcheng remarried and had a new husband and new children, she would no longer care about Qiao Xiangyang, uh, and Qiao Qiao.
They, the grandparents, can take advantage of the situation.
He tried to sow discord between mother and son and used Qiao Xiangyang to extort money and things from Gu Qingcheng.
Not only can he pull his grandson to his side, but he can also cause trouble for Gu Qingcheng.
The key is, you don’t have to spend a penny yourself.
Old man Qiao, who has been shrewd and calculating all his life, did not forget to play tricks even at this time.
He wanted a grandson but didn't want to spend money, and he was reluctant to give up Gu Qingcheng's high income and benefits.
In order to achieve this goal, he carefully selected the best candidate.
In fact, the most perfect thing would be to find a way to pair Gu Qingcheng with Qiao Weiguo again.
Old man Qiao was certain that after several months of wasting time in the boiler room, the arrogance that Qiao Weiguo had when he first arrived had been almost worn away.
In the past month, Qiao Weiguo rarely argued with Old Man Qiao.
During the conversation, there was even a hint of flattery.
Old man Qiao knew that this unfortunate adopted son had learned his lesson and realized that it would be difficult to survive in the city.
snort!
Good to know!
Although I, an old man, don’t have much ability and can’t help you, I can ruin your plans!
Old Man Qiao dared to bet that if he arranged a marriage for Qiao Weiguo at this time, the boy would never dare to object.
Former daughter-in-law Gu Xiaoni is the best candidate.
What a pity——
Gu Xiaoni is now powerful and has become a big figure, and old man Qiao doesn't dare to provoke her easily.
He is the best, but he is not stupid!
Knowing that the other party is a female strongman who cannot be provoked, how can you dare to use your old arms and legs to confront her head-on?
In addition, Gu Qingcheng has a very good reputation because she insisted on remaining a widow to Qiao Jianguo.
On the other hand, the old man Qiao and his wife, their only son died, adopted their nephew, forced their daughter-in-law and granddaughter away, and even refused to recognize their own grandson...
All these things, one after another, have made Old Man Qiao's reputation, which was not very good to begin with, even worse.
Old man Joe didn't care.
It has completely fallen below the moral bottom line, so people just give up.
But not caring doesn’t mean reputation is not important.
As shrewd as Old Man Qiao is, he knows very well that when he, who has a bad reputation, faces Gu Qingcheng, who has a good reputation and is capable, his neighbors, colleagues and unit leaders will definitely favor the latter.
It would be fine for others, but Old Man Qiao didn't want to offend his leader.
"...Humph! You're really lucky!"
After much thought, Old Man Qiao gave up on doing bad things secretly, and instead found a very good candidate for his ex-daughter-in-law.
This is good, without the double quotes, it is really good.
Anyone who hears this will think that Old Man Qiao, the father-in-law, is really doing this for Gu Qingcheng's own good!
"Matchmaking? Who's the man?"
Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but laugh when she saw that Gu Si's wife looked like she was facing a great enemy.
It would be abnormal if a top-notch person like Old Man Qiao completely disappeared.
She had been waiting for Old Man Qiao to make a move.
Finding her a good family and then marrying her off is one of the common tactics used by her husband's family.
Gu Qingcheng was not surprised or surprised at all.
"I heard his name is Xiao Guodong. He also works at the machinery factory and is a workshop director."
Gu Si's wife was very opposed to her elder sister-in-law remarrying.
The reason is simple: once a woman remarries and has a new family, her focus will shift.
In the future, she may not be able to take care of her family like she does now.
In addition to her selfish motives, Gu Si's wife also discovered that her elder sister-in-law seemed to be living a better life if she didn't get married.
No need to serve parents-in-law, no need to take care of husband, and even no need to take care of children.
They are capable and have their own children, so they don't have to worry now or in the future.
Why marry again?
Marry a man and you will have clothes to wear and food to eat.
In this era, many women marry not because of love or the desire for a family, but because they want the most basic survival security.
Gu Qingcheng has all of these, and the quality is very high.
Gu Si's wife once fantasized that if she were the eldest sister-in-law, oh my god, she could be the boss and not have to please anyone. Life would be so damn comfortable.
Only a fool would remarry.
The most important point is that my elder sister-in-law has never thought about remarrying, not even the slightest intention in this regard.
But there are some annoying people who say "I'm doing this for your own good" but are actually just causing trouble.
Especially the couple Old Man Qiao and Mrs. Ma.
Humph, they are so black-hearted and calculating, how could they have any good intentions?
Only this time—
"I've asked the Niu family's aunt about this, and Director Xiao is really a good person."
When Gu Si's wife said this, she herself was a little confused.
Old man Joe actually chose an excellent candidate.
"Director Xiao is forty years old this year and was one of the first batch of college graduates after the liberation."
"He's capable, down-to-earth, helpful, and often helps fellow workers in need."
"He has been a model worker and technical backbone for several consecutive years, and he is not bad looking either."
He is a tall man, about 180cm tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he is very upright.
He looks like a motivated, upright and good person.
"Even for my relatives back home, I send half of my salary back to my parents every month."
“He took great care of his brothers and sisters and fellow villagers.”
"...It can be said that in the machinery factory and in the family quarters, no one fails to give a thumbs-up when Director Xiao is mentioned."
