During the meal, Yuanyuan took the initiative to help Feng Juan, Yun Qiao, and Yan Jingwan pick up food. Looking at Yuanyuan's chubby face, she still looked like a childish kid. I don't know where she came from, but she could actually do such harm to a mentally retarded child.
This could not help but remind her of her childhood love.
When she was a child, many little girls in the village who were in their early teens were betrothed to men at such a young age, even though they had not yet grown up. Their small bodies like children were bulging with big bellies, which looked particularly scary.
Even she was almost sent to another family as a child bride.
The memory of the past brought some bad emotions to Yan Jingwan, but she tried hard not to let it out. But halfway through the meal, she heard Feng Juan and Qin Zheng talking about the people in Beijing, and she couldn't help but ask: "Mom, which family is looking for a marriage for Yuanyuan? Do you know?"
"I don't know exactly which family it is. You know me. I used to be sick, so I stayed at home a lot and rarely went out. So I don't really know who's who outside." Feng Juan smiled awkwardly and added, "I only know that it's the family of your father's former boss's daughter-in-law. It seems her surname is Liang."
Not to mention the daughter-in-law of Qin Lin’s old leader, Feng Juan had never even seen Qin Lin’s old leader.
She was always in a bad mood during those years, and Qin Lin was afraid that if he took her out to socialize, she would have a breakdown in someone else's home, which would be embarrassing, so he simply never took her out.
So much so that now that she had this problem, her mind was almost blank. She had only heard of many of the names Qin Lin mentioned but had never seen them.
Yan Jingwan thought for a moment and recalled a name: "Liang Qingping?"
Feng Juan nodded: "I think that's her name. Do you know her?"
Yan Jingwan nodded. "I know her. Liang Qingping was the head of the logistics department at the Beijing Workers' Union. She married into the Gao family in the inner circle, and she's very proud of it. She always mentions her in her conversations, and she's quite famous in the Workers' Union."
After hearing what Yan Jingwan said, Feng Juan curiously asked, "Jingwan, are you familiar with this comrade surnamed Liang? What do you think of her? Is she a good person?"
Feng Juan had no other intention in asking these questions, she just wanted to know what kind of person Liang Qingping was and whether she would bear a grudge against her family for rejecting the marriage.
Yan Jingwan understood what Feng Juan meant and said, "It's hard to say what her personality is like. I'm not familiar with her, just an acquaintance. But she loves chatting with people and can talk to anyone. So many people in the group know some of her personalities. I heard she's quite generous and will give gifts to anyone she gets along with. But she's a bit arrogant and difficult to get along with. She can be a bit harsh. If you want to make friends with her, you have to be able to tolerate her first."
"She has a silly nephew, and everyone in the group knows about it."
"Because Liang Qingping adores her silly nephew, and in order to carry on the family line for him, she had even been looking for a marriage partner for him in the labor union. She was mainly looking for those from rural areas outside the province who wanted to work in Beijing. They offered betrothal gifts, watches, and even promised jobs and household registration. The conditions they offered were very generous."
"But she was looking in the wrong place. The girls in the troupe all had skills. Even if they left the troupe and went to work in the countryside, they would have good prospects and wouldn't have to go back to the countryside. The money for the betrothal gift and the watch could be earned after working for a year or two. There was no need to gamble the rest of her life on marrying a fool. So almost no one was tempted by the small favors she promised, and in the end, the wedding was dropped."
"When you first mentioned it, I had a vague suspicion, but I also thought it was impossible. Liang Qingping has very high standards and has always wanted to find a beautiful, normal girl as a wife for her silly nephew. I never thought she would set her sights on Yuanyuan."
