Jin Jinxiu looked at the wrinkled old man, thought for a moment and said, "I can come back after I finish taking care of my eldest daughter-in-law during her postpartum period."
Qian Sheng nodded. Although he was reluctant, he knew that his wife had to leave because it was important for her to go to his eldest son's place. Especially since his eldest son was still in school, his wife was the one who had to handle everything at home. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Wife, please help our eldest son's family more. You know, his wife has to work and take care of two children all by herself. It's really hard for her."
Jin Jinxiu sighed and said, "Old man, we're all so old now, it's time for us to help the children. Right now, the eldest son's side is having a hard time, and the second son's family doesn't need us yet. I just hope that all the children can be well!"
Qian Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, but do you have any thoughts on the third brother's marriage?"
Jin Jinxiu said, "Thoughts? What thoughts could I possibly have? The third brother has grown up now and doesn't listen to me anymore!"
Qian Sheng snorted: "That third kid is really disobedient. But what if I ask Duo Duo to see if there are any suitable girls in college?"
Jin Jinxiu's eyes lit up: "You're the one who should be talking about this. Okay, I'll go find Duoduo later and tell her about it. I'll ask her for her advice, since they're all in the same place."
Qian Sheng nodded and chuckled. You know, his wife's praise came suddenly, but the secret joy he felt was really satisfying!
Qian Duoduo was surprised that her mother had such thoughts. She asked, "Mom, are you serious?"
Jin Jinxiu said, "Aren't you worried about your third brother being like this?"
Qian Duoduo: Before I transmigrated into the book, there were plenty of people over 30 who weren't married, and some who were destined to remain single forever. So what? Besides, my third brother is only 28 years old. Well, that's a bit old in the 80s, huh?
Jin Jinxiu said, "Could you help me see if there's anyone suitable for your third brother at the university?"
Qian Duoduo: "Mom, you mean you're looking for someone from a university?"
Jin Jinxiu said, "Your third brother now has a job in the province, and it's not bad. I think he can marry a college graduate."
Qian Duoduo fell silent.
Jin Jinxiu kicked Qian Duoduo and said, "What's wrong? Aren't you in a hurry about your third brother's marriage?"
Qian Duoduo said, "Mom, how could that be? I was just thinking that some of the college students are married, some are married and divorced, and some are hiding their marriages. I have to find out who they are, otherwise, wouldn't that be an insult to my third brother?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Jinxiu nodded and said, "Alright, I'll leave this matter to you. You have to take this seriously. I'll see the results when I return from your elder brother's place."
Qian Duoduo watched Jin Jinxiu leave and sighed. Where was she going to find a suitable girl to introduce to her third brother? This was truly a daunting task!
Old Man Jin and Old Woman Jin returned to Yuanbao Village with their son and grandson. With the Jin family members gone, the house was immediately quieter, with less talking, arguing, and laughter.
The Qian family home, which had been bustling for several days, suddenly fell silent. Looking at the quiet house, Qian Sheng felt uneasy. Not only were his father-in-law and his wife missing, but his brother-in-law's family was also gone. His wife had also left with his eldest son and his family of three.
Seeing the old man's somewhat depressed expression, Qian Duoduo smiled and picked up Qian Yibo, placing him in his arms. She said, "If you feel bored and lonely, then you can look after the child. It'll keep you busy and lively."
Qian Yibo looked at his grandfather and immediately smiled: "Jie Jie, Jie Jie!"
Qian Sheng immediately corrected him: "Grandson, I am your grandfather."
"Jie Jie!"
"grandfather!"
"Jie Jie!"
"grandfather!"
"Hey!"
Qian Sheng's eyes widened. This brat, how come he's taking advantage of us!
Qian Duoduo, standing to the side, couldn't stop laughing. Looking at the bewildered Qian Yibo, she thought, "Kid, you know how to annoy your grandpa!"
Although Qian Sheng was frustrated, he didn't put the child down. He and Qian Yibo spent a while correcting each other's pronunciation of "Grandpa," and finally ended the conversation when Qian Yibo ignored him.
When Qian Mao arrived, the grandfather and grandson were in the middle of a heated argument, so he wisely refrained from participating and, like Qian Duoduo, watched the show from the sidelines, occasionally discussing things with Qian Duoduo.
When they saw Qian Yibo turn around to crawl away, he gave Qian Sheng a round little bottom, and the two siblings couldn't help but laugh.
Qian Mao stepped forward and looked at Qian Sheng, saying, "Dad, you and Yibo are getting along really well!"
Qian Sheng snorted: "Isn't this just me teasing the kids when I have nothing better to do?"
Qian Mao smiled, and was about to speak when he heard Qian Sheng say, "Your mother said you're almost forty, it's time you found a partner!"
Qian Mao immediately objected: "Dad, I'm only 28. According to my birthday, I'm actually a year younger. How can you say I'm forty!"
Qian Sheng sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), rolled his eyes at him, and said, "You're almost thirty, and once you're over thirty you'll be almost forty. Where did I go wrong?"
Qian Mao: Dad, it's a great loss to the village that you're not going to be an accountant!
Qian Duoduo could only laugh when she heard this, but her gloating didn't last long. Qian Sheng said again, "Before your mother and your older brother left, they told Duoduo to look for a suitable girl for you at university."
Qian Mao glanced at Qian Duoduo, who hadn't yet managed to wipe away her smile, a hint of threat in his eyes.
