Guo Jia chuckled, "Mr. Ling is too domineering. He gnashes his teeth at anyone who gets close to him."
After the job was settled, Zhou Xiang asked her if there was any man she liked and she would help her win him back.
"Miss Zhou, my mother must have told you about the person she has her eyes on. Why are you still saying this?" Guo Jia was surprised.
Zhou Xiang waved his hand and said, "Your significant other is the one you will spend your whole life with. Just because your mother likes someone doesn't mean you will like them."
Guo Jia was moved and hugged Zhou Xiang's arm. "Thank you, Miss Zhou. I have always wanted to follow you and never thought about the big things in life. I decided to listen to my mother's advice. I have argued with her many times about this matter."
"Are you planning to meet Xiao Qian?" Zhou Xiang was a little surprised.
Guo Jia nodded, "My mother said that many girls are attracted by Xiao Qian, which shows that he has good conditions."
"Well, wait for me to ask the teacher and find out what's going on with Xiao Qian's family. What if Xiao Qian has his own ideas? I'll ask him, and he won't know who the girl is. If it doesn't work out, it won't be embarrassing."
"Okay, okay," Guo Jia nodded repeatedly. She had no confidence at first, but her mother wanted her to cooperate. If it worked out, she would get married and have children as soon as possible. If it didn't work out, she could also persuade her mother to give up this and find another one for her so as not to waste her time.
After talking for a while, Guo Jia left. As soon as Guo Jia left, Zhou Xiang returned to the living room and called the teacher on her cell phone. She wanted to ask questions in a confidential manner. After all, Xiao Qian lived with the teacher. If she went to the teacher's place, Xiao Qian would definitely be there to serve her.
The question the student asked surprised Professor Chu. "I haven't heard Xiao Qian mention it. Did someone ask you about it?"
"Yes," Zhou Xiang admitted, "I can't just give people promises. If Xiao Qian has a target, I can refuse him or act as a matchmaker for him."
"Then I'll ask him first and then call you back." Professor Chu was also worried about Xiao Qian's marriage. Since she would follow him in the future, he should worry about Xiao Qian as if she were a junior.
"By the way, ask about his family situation. I hope there won't be anything like Ding Fan's family."
Then, what Zhou Xiang waited for was not a call from the teacher, but the teacher himself, with Xiao Qian naturally following behind the teacher.
After everyone sat down, Xiao Qian took the initiative to introduce his family.
There are six brothers and sisters in his family. His parents are honest farmers. His two sisters are married in town, and his brother and two younger brothers have already started their own families. He has no pressure and his family has no objection to him staying in another place.
It sounds simple enough, but when you think about it, there's bound to be competition and friction among such a large family. Zhou Xiang asked, "Have they ever put forward any requirements for your future partner? Will your family live together or separately? How will you discuss retirement care?"
"We've been separated," Xiao Qian answered honestly. "They didn't mention any retirement support. They just told me to take care of myself. My parents will live with my eldest brother, and the harvest from the land will belong to him. I plan to give him some money every month or at the end of the year. I should also provide for my parents' retirement."
Zhou Xiang nodded secretly, this was reasonable, "Then what do you want from your future half?"
Xiao Qian hesitated a little, "I don't have any requirements, as long as we like each other."
That hint of hesitation was so obvious that not only Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran noticed it, but Professor Chu also saw it. "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't hide it."
Seeing that there were only four people in the living room, Xiao Qian simply said, "I have a target."
"who?"
"Guo Yao."
Zhou Xiang's mouth curled up when he heard the word "Guo", but it immediately fell when he heard the second word. This time it was over, nothing could be accomplished.
When Professor Chu saw the student's expression, he knew who had chosen Xiao Qian, and he also shook his head and sighed.
The living room fell silent for a moment. Xiao Qian looked at Zhou Xiang anxiously, "Miss Zhou?"
Zhou Xiang sighed softly, "Xiao Qian, you and Guo Yao can't be together. Change your target! Sister Guo's requirements are very high."
Are Sister Guo's requirements too high? Xiao Qian turned to look at Professor Chu in confusion.
Professor Chu nodded. "Well, change your target! We'll keep an eye on it for you."
After seeing the teacher and Xiao Qian off, Zhou wanted to quickly call Zhou's family to find Sister Guo.
When the phone rang in the living room, Guo Jia rushed out faster than anyone else. He dropped the food in his hands and ran to the living room without even washing his hands. "Hello?"
"Jia Jia, I'm looking for Sister Guo."
"Miss Zhou?"
"Um."
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll go call my mom."
Guo Xuehua listened to the phone, feeling uncomfortable and wanting to give Xiaoqian a beating. She had actually chosen the second child, who was only 18 years old and in the first year of high school with good grades. She was even going to train the second child to go to college! No matter how much the four daughters admired Miss Zhou, if they wanted to go out to study, they could go out to study. It was fine if they wanted to work outside or come back. She had no objection, as long as they finished their studies.
Xiao Qian is already 24 years old. Not only is there an age gap, but they won't even have anything to say to each other in the future. How could she agree to this? What's more, she originally planned to marry her eldest daughter, and she knew and agreed. Wouldn't this create a rift in their good sisterhood?
"Miss Zhou is right. We can't let these two sisters know. Just say Xiao Qian has other goals."
After hanging up the phone, Guo Xuehua was still indignant. Humph! I originally thought Xiao Qian was pretty good, but now I see that he has high standards. He doesn't like the uneducated eldest daughter, but he likes the promising second daughter. His daughter is not for others to choose.
Seeing his mother's grim expression, Guo Jia asked worriedly, "What's wrong? What did Miss Zhou say?"
Guo Xuehua stared at the eldest daughter's appearance carefully, and compared it with the second daughter's appearance in her mind. She couldn't help but tears welled up in her eyes. When she first arrived at the Zhou family, she should have let the eldest daughter study with them.
In fact, among the four daughters, the eldest and the second daughter look the most alike, but the eldest daughter is not as white as the second daughter, and is not as confident as the second daughter, the kind of confidence that comes from being cultured and knowledgeable from the bottom of her heart.
Isn't the unique quality of self-confidence more attractive than an honest and plain boss?
"Xiao Qian has a target now. Mom will look for another one for you."
Guo Jia didn't doubt it and nodded in response, "Well, Mom, don't set your sights too high. Just an ordinary one will do."
Guo Jia had never dreamed of retiring like Xiao Qian and getting a high salary, but it was his mother who tried hard to match them up.
Guo Xuehua hummed softly. She couldn't find an ordinary husband for her eldest daughter. The other three daughters would all be educated people in the future. Who knew what kind of husbands they would find? The differences between the sons-in-law were too great. The eldest daughter would definitely be outdone in the future.
On Xiao Qian's side, after returning with Professor Chu, he became more and more uneasy, "Professor Chu, did I, did I make a mistake?"
Professor Chu carefully looked at the young man in front of him. He had an upright figure, bright eyes, and slightly thick lips. He was a very handsome young man. Considering that he only graduated from high school, it was no wonder that he had such high standards.
But Guo Xuehua didn't expect that he would choose Xiao Qian for Guo Jia. Because of Zhou Xiang's backing, both parties were confident. However, something went wrong.
"Ah~ Zhou Xiang is right, you should change your target!"
"Chu, Professor Chu, can I know why?" Xiao Qian felt upset. Why did he change his target?
