Chapter 396: The Future Son-in-Law of My Second Uncle
Chen Juan and Zhao Shunfa were introduced to each other by mothers working in the village garment factory. She is gentle, kind, hardworking and capable. The mothers like Chen Juan and are eager to introduce her to potential partners.
Zhao Shunfa is two years older than Chen Juan. He is calm and quiet. He is wearing a brown leather jacket and black corduroy pants, and looks very energetic.
As soon as he came home, he started looking for work, chopping wood and sweeping the yard. He was the ideal son-in-law for the villagers.
No wonder my second uncle and aunt kept praising him. Even Chen Guilan praised Chen Juan for being a good son-in-law.
Su Jiaojiao was no stranger to Zhao Shunfa. In her previous life, every time she came to Chen Juan's house, Zhao Shunfa would rush around buying meat and fish to entertain her and was very nice to her.
For Chen Juan, she needs someone like this to help her support the family.
The second aunt also made a bowl of fried eggs to entertain her future son-in-law. After Zhao Shunfa finished chopping firewood, he sat on the edge of the kang and ate the eggs.
Xiao Suisui followed Zhao Shunfa like a little tail, calling him brother-in-law all the time. Zhao Shunfa even took a small bowl and split half of an egg for his sister-in-law to eat.
What’s interesting is that Zhao Shunfa and Chen Juan didn’t communicate at all throughout the whole process. He hadn’t said a word to Chen Juan since he entered the door.
Chen Juan lowered her head to light the fire and was too embarrassed to look at him.
Su Jiaojiao just wanted to laugh when she saw this. Is it so traditional?
Xu Yue'e cooked a table full of dishes to entertain her future son-in-law, and she also did not forget to tease Chen Guichang's family, saying that they only knew how to carve radishes and show off their skills.
During the meal, Chen Guisheng acted like a father-in-law, sat firmly in the main seat, urged him to drink in a methodical manner, and chatted with him about his family matters.
Zhao Shunfa answered every question and was very respectful.
He said that his family's intention was to get engaged first, then buy a house, and after the house was ready, they could consider getting married. They had ideas and plans in place, and there was nothing wrong with them.
Chen Guisheng agreed immediately and said that this would be the case.
Xu Yue'e and Chen Guilan also felt that it was impeccable. According to their local customs, only those who were engaged could be considered real prospective sons-in-law.
It is rare for people who are engaged to cancel their engagement.
Anyone who proposes to cancel an engagement will be condemned, and the reputation of both the man and the woman whose engagement is canceled will be damaged.
Chen Juan always knew what she wanted, and it was impossible for her to cancel the engagement. It was already not easy for her to choose such a husband within her ability.
Although Chen Juan had some conflicts with her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law in her previous life, she was generally happy. She took care of her parents and lived a prosperous and stable life in the village.
Zhao Shunfa was also very good to Chen Juan because she was willing to help him support his mother. He made money outside while she took care of the housework at home and took care of her parents' and in-laws' families.
Chen Juan is a person who is easily contented. Because of her contentment, she has inadvertently gained a lot of happiness.
Although now I see that Chen Mei and Chen Ju from my uncle's family have found contract jobs with urban household registration, they are very successful.
But in the long run, Chen Juan lives better than Chen Mei, Chen Ju, Chen Jiang, and Su Jiaojiao.
Although Su Jiaojiao had some achievements in her previous life, she had no family, and among the thousands of lights in the imperial capital, there was not a single one that belonged to her.
Su Cuicui somehow found out that Su Jiaojiao and Chen Guilan were at Chen Guisheng's house, and she ran over. "The last time you went to the factory, I was off duty, and I heard from others that you drove there. You're amazing."
"I'm going to Qimei in a few days, and I'll come to see you then." Su Jiaojiao didn't want to discuss her car with Su Cuicui, she was more concerned about the baseball uniform.
"Okay, we'll go to work on the sixth day of the New Year. Just come find me." Su Cuicui was quite friendly when she saw Su Jiaojiao. "I have a lot to say to you. Why don't you come to my house to find me when you come to the village..."
What does the grudges between elders have to do with them?
They are cousins and should interact with each other as they should.
"It's the same if I go to the company to find you." Su Jiaojiao didn't have any objections to Su Cuicui, but she didn't want to deal with the Su family. "I plan to start production of a batch of baseball uniforms, and I still need your help!"
"No problem, I will definitely help as long as you need me to do something." Su Cuicui's focus was not on the baseball uniform order, but on Su Jiaojiao's car.
After returning home, she told Xu Yuxiang and Feng Yuefen about Su Jiaojiao buying a car in a big fuss. Feng Yuefen was fine, but Xu Yuxiang was furious: "It was really her who drove back just now!"
"Yes, the black sedan." Su Jiaojiao deliberately provoked Xu Yuxiang, "Oh, my second uncle really lost a lot of money. He gave up such a daughter who can make money and raised someone else's child..."
Because of Gao Meifeng, Xue Yuxin went to work in Qimei as soon as she had a holiday, cutting threads in the packaging workshop to earn some pocket money.
Su Cuicui got angry whenever she saw Xue Yuxin, and they quarreled several times. What made her even angrier was that Su Houli scolded her, saying that as an older sister, she should give in to her younger sister.
Bah, she doesn’t have such a sister!
"Your aunt's family hasn't even bought a car yet!" Xu Yuxiang couldn't believe it. "How could a little girl like her afford such an expensive car? There must be something wrong with it."
"Grandma, Jiaojiao is very good at business. She is making money." Su Cuicui was proud of it. "It's a pity that my second uncle is not so lucky."
Xu Yuxiang moved her lips but said nothing.
If Su Jiaojiao really bought a car, she would feel very upset. How could the Su family not get such a great honor?
On the way back, Chen Guilan couldn't help but praise Zhao Shunfa. Su Jiaojiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Mom, what do you mean by praising my sister's boyfriend in front of me?"
"It's nothing, it's just a chat!" Chen Guilan has always liked her niece Chen Juan. Seeing that her niece has found a good partner, her aunt is also happy.
"I think Lu Jingyou is a good guy. If he comes, he will definitely chop firewood and sweep the yard for you. But you don't let him come." Su Jiaojiao called Lu Jingyou and told him about this, asking him to come again in the future and not this year.
If he came during the first month of the lunar year, Chen Guilan would have to ask elders like Su Houli or Chen Guisheng to come over and drink with her, which was too troublesome.
Lu Jingyou expressed his understanding and gave up the idea of visiting Jiao County.
"I'm not stopping him from coming. I'm saying that you're still in school, so don't move too fast." Seeing that Su Jiaojiao seemed to be blaming her, Chen Guilan didn't know what to say.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I know what you mean." Su Jiaojiao would not blame her mother for such a small matter.
On the sixth day of the New Year, Su Jiaojiao went to the flower shop early in the morning to order a bouquet of flowers, and then went to the office to discuss the baseball uniform with Mr. Kang. She had to arrange the baseball uniform as soon as possible while she was at home.
"Oh, Jiaojiao, you're so thoughtful. You even bought me flowers." Mr. Kang was very surprised. He looked at the flowers from left to right, and couldn't let go of them. He asked her, "How are you getting along with Su Cuicui?"
"We are fine." Su Jiaojiao actually gets along well with Li Na and Wang Xiaomeng. She also asked Su Cuicui, and Su Cuicui said that because they are not busy during the first month of the lunar year, they, as out-of-town employees, will come back a little later.
"Then I'll let her take full charge of your baseball uniform order. Just tell her if you have anything to ask. We'll discuss the processing fee after we get the samples." Mr. Kang smiled brightly. "Thank you for the flowers. In the new year and new century, I hope we can all prosper."
"Of course I will." Su Jiaojiao came out of the office and went to Fenghua Textile Factory. She wanted to use their fabrics to avoid the trouble of traveling.
