Ruan Mianmian was shocked.
What is Wu Huimin thinking? Why is the topic so shocking?
Is she twenty? She looks younger than me, how can she have the hobbies of the village aunties?
Introducing people to each other is something that only aunties and grandmothers like to do.
"Let me tell you, the person I introduced to you is really very reliable!" Wu Huimin did not notice Ruan Mianmian's expression and said to herself, "This person is tall and mighty, with a dignified bearing. He is also upright and very good to his family. Believe me, he must be a very good candidate."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Ruan Mianmian tried to stop Wu Huimin from talking to herself, "I don't have a partner. But I don't plan to find one now. So thank you for your kindness. It's really not necessary."
She still has to prepare for the college entrance examination in two years, so she doesn't have time to date.
"Mianmian, you don't have to be embarrassed." Wu Huimin herself knows the sweetness of love. She thinks Mianmian's life is bitter. If she can taste the sweetness of love, she will definitely be very happy.
"Hui Min, I'm really not embarrassed. I just simply don't want to find a partner right now." Ruan Mianmian nodded in affirmation, with a firm expression.
Wu Huimin was a little anxious. She hadn't even finished her words when she was rejected. What would her brother do?
The person she wanted to introduce to Mianmian was her own brother Wu Ziyi.
Her brother had been raised by her father since he was a child, and when he reached the age to join the army, he immediately joined the army.
Except for my family members, all the people around me are men.
I’m 23 now and still single.
Wu Huimin believed in her brother's character very much, so she wanted to give her brother to Ruan Mianmian as a gift.
But it seems like it’s about to end before it even begins.
no!
She couldn't just give up like this.
Since Ruan Mianmian's approach doesn't work, then let's start with her brother. I'll write a letter to her brother when I go back tonight and ask him to come to her place during his family visit this year.
She believed that as long as her brother met Ruan Mianmian, he would definitely like her as much as she did.
Moreover, Ruan Mianmian was their family's great benefactor. For saving her life, her brother should repay her with his own body.
"Okay then. Let's not talk about this for now. But you have to promise me that if you want to find a partner, you must tell me first. The person I introduce is absolutely reliable. You have to trust me."
"Okay, okay. I agree." Ruan Mianmian said perfunctorily, obviously not taking it seriously.
——————
At the Ruan family, Wang Lijuan found Ruan Xiangxiang and called her into the inner room.
Ruan Xiangxiang looked at her mother's serious expression, and her heart was beating fast. She didn't know what her mother wanted to see her for.
"You've been getting close to that new educated youth Liu recently?" Wang Lijuan said straight to the point. She didn't intend to beat around the bush. Time didn't allow it.
"Mom!" Ruan Xiangxiang suddenly said, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face. She subconsciously denied, "I didn't."
"No, there is no best. I have arranged a marriage for you. In a few days, you can prepare yourself and I will take you to meet the person." Wang Lijuan originally did not plan to marry her daughter off so early.
But the Ruan family is not having an easy time now.
Although the kitchen was renovated, the old lady was reluctant to spend enough money to build another one for each family. Fortunately, everything was burned down in a fire, and there was no need to push the wall or anything else. A slightly larger kitchen was built directly on the original site, shared by the two families.
In the past, she could still scrape together a little money for food and clothing, but now, there is no chance at all.
Her Jiajun is different from Jiabao. She has to save more things for Jiajun so that he can have a better life in the future.
Since there is nothing left to be gained from the family, the only option left is the bride price.
"What?!" Ruan Xiangxiang didn't expect her mother to discuss the marriage directly. She didn't know who her mother was looking for, but she was sure that it was not a good family.
She knew her mother's goal in choosing a man. No matter what the other person's character, talent or appearance was, the only thing that mattered was that he could offer a large gift.
A long time ago, she heard her mother say that she wanted to use the dowry money from her and Jingjing to help Jiajun find a wife.
"I won't go!" Ruan Xiangxiang refused directly. She had just made some progress with Liu Zhiqing. How could she go with her mother to see him now?
"You have no choice but to go." "Wang Lijuan doesn't spoil her," "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. You think you can marry a sent-down youth peacefully. I tell you, it's impossible."
Wang Lijuan had also inquired about it and heard that Liu Shixian's family had some status and background. But he had already gone to the countryside, so what great future could he have? How could a truly capable person come to the countryside?
Such people are just superficial and have no substance.
Moreover, even if he could really return to the city in the future, Liu Shixian's family was in the capital, which was a long way from here. How could he still take care of Shang Jiajun?
Wang Lijuan had never thought that if Ruan Xiangxiang really married Liu Shixian and followed him back to the capital, she could bring Jiajun with her. That was simply impossible.
So, it’s better to have it in front of you.
Only what you can truly hold in your hands belongs to you.
Things that you can see but can't touch are better off not having them.
Ruan Xiangxiang was also furious. She pushed her mother away and rushed out the door, saying, "No matter what you say, I won't go."
After leaving the house, Ruan Xiangxiang didn't know where to go. She wanted to go to the educated youth center to find Liu Shixian, but she felt that there were too many people there and it was not convenient. After all, the two of them had not yet confirmed their relationship.
Suddenly, she thought of Ruan Mianmian.
This person who was kicked out of his home not only does not look down and out, but is getting better and better.
She looked at her from a distance several times, and she was completely different from when she was at the Ruan family.
The words that her grandmother, her aunt, and her mother said to others intentionally or unintentionally did spread in the village, but it didn't seem to have any impact.
She didn't care at all, and those gossiping aunts didn't mention it to her.
Ruan Xiangxiang is really envious of Ruan Mianmian now. At least she can decide her own marriage now and doesn't have to be controlled by her family.
Before she knew it, Ruan Xiangxiang had walked to the outside of Ruan Mianmian's yard.
When she reacted, she found that the yard door was locked.
Before she turned around and left, she heard a familiar voice.
