Li Guoqiang sensed the malice in his words and frowned. "My younger sister will graduate next year. The family doesn't want her to go to the countryside, so we want to find her a good family to marry into. Didn't you know about this?"
"How would I know about your family's affairs? Besides, we just met on our first day together, right? It's inappropriate for you to tell me these things." Hua Zhian didn't expect the other party to be so shameless, and he bluntly stated.
As he said this, he instantly moved far away from them. "Chen Lei, we're good brothers, what are you trying to do?"
"Didn't you mention it to him?" Li Guoqiang also asked Chen Lei.
Chen Lei chuckled dryly, "It's just that I haven't found a chance to say it yet."
Zhi'an, you don't have to start working right away. You can also consider marriage.
My little sister Ziyu is beautiful and kind-hearted, and you always couldn't bear to see her suffer in the countryside..."
"Shut up!" Hua Zhian quickened his pace, seeing that no one was around. "My marriage is my grandparents' business. What's it to you? Do you need to make decisions for me?"
Li Ziyu blushed, finally understanding that it was all her doing, and the other person had no idea about matchmaking.
So before her...
Li Guoqiang grabbed Li Ziyu and stared intently at Chen Lei, "Didn't you already tell us? You already told him, and he agreed. That's why we came to look at the potential partners."
"Something came up before, so I couldn't go." Chen Lei didn't think it was a big deal, after all, he and Hua Zhian had been brothers for so many years. "Besides, this isn't a one-off deal. Let's see each other first, and if we're on good terms, we'll talk about it later."
As Hua Zhian walked, he looked back at Li Ziyu and his sister, saying, "Don't listen to his nonsense. I have no plans to find a partner right now."
And speaking of this lady, you should be about the same age as my younger sister, maybe even classmates. You need to stay in the city, and so does my younger sister.
Even if someone in my family has a job, we'll definitely prioritize my sister.
If you can't get what you want from me, you'd better find someone else!
Li Ziyu stopped in his tracks. "What's your sister's name?"
There's only one high school in the county. Even if you're not in the same class, you should still know each other.
"Hua Xiangyun, if she doesn't have a job by then, I'll give her mine. Our family won't let her go to the countryside." Hua Zhian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw villagers slowly walking around outside the nearby village entrance.
Here's another way to frame Li Guoqiang: aren't they siblings? It's not like the girl has to go to the countryside.
Li Guoqiang saw through his little tricks and couldn't help but sneer, "You're really a coward."
"It's not that I'm timid, it's just that it's better to avoid trouble." Hua Zhian stopped to catch his breath. He was only a few dozen meters away from He Chunguang's house. He hoped that the two siblings would be sensible and stop following him.
“Hua Xiangyun? I know her.” Li Ziyu grabbed his brother’s hand. “Let’s go back!”
Li Guoqiang felt sorry for his sister and didn't want her to lower herself, so he didn't say anything more and turned to leave.
Chen Lei walked over at this moment, "Brother, what's wrong with you? You won't even give me this much face?"
"Respect is earned, not given by others," Hua Zhian said irritably, but he also breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully these two didn't cause any trouble.
"My cousin has a good personality and no family burdens."
If you can marry her, you should be content.
"Is it really that good that I'll get a chance?" Hua Zhian laughed sarcastically. "I used to think we were brothers, and that you wouldn't scheme against me like others do. I didn't expect I was too optimistic. How have you changed so much in the past two years?"
Hua Zhian planned to keep his distance from the other party in the future, so he spoke without any reservations: "We've been classmates since junior high school, and we'll only be classmates from now on."
Chen Lei felt a little guilty, but didn't want to give up on such a good friend. He walked over and tried to put his arm around the man's shoulder, but the man turned away and dodged him. "No, I apologize to you."
I made a mistake this time, but since neither of us is married, there's no harm in meeting.
"You see, since you felt this wasn't appropriate, my cousins didn't press the matter, and they left."
Hua Zhian sensed the perfunctory tone in his words, "..." Fine, looks like I'll have to avoid him in the future...
Li Guoqiang, who was walking back, also asked, "What's wrong? Are you not satisfied?"
“I know Hua Xiangyun,” Li Ziyu said, blushing. “She’s very famous at our school. Everyone knows that her family spoils her. She wears the best clothes and eats the best food. If it weren’t for her grandparents’ impeccable family background, many people would be envious and want to report her.”
I'd heard from people living in the same compound that her family had already secured a job for her before she even graduated.
With such a sister-in-law in the house, Li Ziyu immediately backed down. She didn't have the confidence to snatch the job from such a sister-in-law.
Li Guoqiang understood. Although he also felt sorry for his younger sister, he really couldn't bring himself to give up his job to her as Hua Zhian suggested.
"So what do you think of him? Are you satisfied with him?" Li Guoqiang asked in a low voice.
Li Ziyu said, "Even if I'm satisfied, so what? People are avoiding me like the plague. Even if I don't want to go to the countryside, I don't want to be forced into this situation."
"It doesn't matter if you didn't have a job in the past. I heard that the Hua family is well-off and can support you."
How about I ask Chen Lei to try and match you up again? Otherwise, Mom will take you to see another one..."
Li Ziyu gritted her teeth and said, "If all else fails, I'll go to the countryside. I can do what others can do."
“That’s impossible,” Hua Guoqiang immediately refused. “Mom and Dad will never agree. Think about it, so many people in our compound went down there and never came back. In the end, they all married those peasants. Do you want to live that kind of life?”
Li Ziyu: "...Let's go see the person Mom mentioned first..."

Jiang Yi had assumed he was just a staff member, but he was surprised to find himself sitting in the director's seat.
"Is this a mistake?" Jiang Yi hesitated to sign the appointment document, even though no position was mentioned when he was selected.
“These are all arrangements made by higher-ups,” Director Xiao, who accompanied him to complete the formalities, said with a smile, handing him a pen. “This is a good thing that others would beg for, are you really going to turn it down?”
Jiang Yi, "...Is this a good thing?"
Director Xiao turned his head away, not daring to look him in the eye. The parties were arguing endlessly over this position, each trying to place their own people in it.
Just then, Jiang Yi specifically requested to come here, and with the help of someone with ulterior motives, he was directly assigned to this position.
Given his qualifications and connections, none of the other parties had any reason to refuse his position.
This allowed them to pass on the hot potato, and the bigwigs finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, if we keep arguing over these trivial matters, we won't be able to get anything else done.
Director Xiao said, "Of course it's a good thing. If anyone makes things difficult for you, just tell me, and I'll take care of them for you."
