Chapter 81 Chapter 81
"What else?" Zhang Xiuhua looked at him and asked,
"Do you really think I'm stupid? Are you fooling around with my daughter?"
Jia Qiheng: "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I'll tell you now."
Zhang Xiuhua leaned closer to him and said, "I've already found Quan Hui a long time ago." Her words were full of satisfaction.
Jia Qiheng didn't even bother to eat, and asked her, "How can he convince you with his sweet words?"
"What sweet words can he have?" Zhang Xiuhua looked at him unsatisfiedly, very unhappy that Jia Qiheng thought he was deceived.
"It simply shows his sincerity." Zhang Xiuhua said: "I saw with my own eyes and felt that Quan Hui really wanted to build a house and marry Yumin."
Zhang Xiuhua was usually impetuous, and her personality and behavior were as quick and efficient. She also spoke quickly and briskly, and when she was anxious, she would shout very loudly.
It was rare for her to speak so slowly and leisurely like she did now, with a gentle smile on her lips:
"I've suffered all my life, but my two daughters are blessed. Yulin married well. I was always worried about Yumin before." "
Her personality is still like that of a child, and she's not particularly good-looking. I'm really worried about the man she'll marry in the future and what her future mother-in-law will be like. I've suffered enough from my mother-in-law and I know how much suffering it is."
Jia Qiheng said nothing and listened quietly. He felt guilty and felt bad when he thought of the hardships his wife had gone through with him.
"I was really surprised and delighted when I heard Yumin say that the man she was dating was Quan Hui. He is capable and his mother will not make things difficult for her. On the one hand, I was very happy, but on the other hand, I didn't quite believe it."
Jia Qiheng asked, "So you went to find Quan Hui?"
"Yes." Zhang Xiuhua said, "Yumin told me, and I can see that she has liked Quan Hui for a long time. She recently confessed her love to him. Unexpectedly, Quan Hui said that he was also interested, but he didn't make enough money to build a new house, so he didn't want to get married and didn't want the whole family to live in the old house."
Jia Qiheng frowned and said, "Then there is no need to get married. Let's talk first. Yumin is still young, there is no rush."
"They should talk for a few years, and then discuss the wedding when Quan Hui has enough money to build a house. Why are you and your mother so anxious? Our family is empty-handed and still doesn't have enough money to build a house. We are willing to borrow money for the sake of face, but others may not be able to come up with so much."
"You don't think about things, so of course your mentality is good."
Zhang Xiuhua said angrily:
"Do you know how hard it is to find a good guy, and you met someone as impeccable as Quan Hui? He likes Yumin now, what if he changes his mind in a few years? He goes to work in the factory, unlike you who have lived in the village all your life, and has met many people and encountered many things. What if he meets someone better than Yumin in the future and changes his mind, what should I do if he delays me for a few years?"
"Quan Hui told me that he would marry Yumin as long as we have money to build a house now. Why don't you seize such a good opportunity?"
Jia Qiheng felt that what Zhang Xiuhua said was not in line with his wishes, but he also felt that there was some truth in it. He took a bite of the food, but there was no taste in his mouth.
Zhang Xiuhua saw her husband wavering, and she was delighted. She said,
"For Yumin's life, let's give up our dignity and go out to borrow some money to help the young couple get married. If both daughters live well, we will have no worries in our lives, don't you think? Besides, it's not like the money won't come back. Quan Hui said he would pay it back."
Jia Qiheng said gloomily, "It's useless even if you are willing to give up your dignity. Who can lend you so much money? Are you going out to borrow money with interest?" "
Jia Guoye."
Zhang Xiuhua said, "You know, his father-in-law should have given him a lot of money to take care of Jia Yourui, who was mentally ill at the time."
"You are also planning to borrow money from Guoye?"
Jia Qiheng looked at his wife and asked in shock. He refused again and again:
"Guoye's life is not easy. He has to do all kinds of work inside and outside the house. He doesn't even straighten his back for most of the day when he works in the fields. I can't ask him for money."
Seeing him like this, Zhang Xiuhua was so angry that tears were about to flow out. She remembered that she had been choked by Jia Guoye when she asked someone to borrow money before. The grievances surged in her heart, and with the current anger, the anger in her heart was about to explode.
Zhang Xiuhua thought that Jia Guoye was unwilling to lend her money, maybe because he was not close to her, but letting Jia Qiheng ask for it would definitely be more effective than her words, so she said so much to him, hoping to impress him.
But now Jia Qiheng looked resolute, as if what she said was heartless. But she was doing it for her daughter. Could it be that she was just talking to a cow?
"Whatever you think." Zhang Xiuhua said angrily, "You care about outsiders and don't care about your daughter. I can't do that. If you don't go find Jia Guoye, I will take Yumin and move out!"
She threw her hands and rushed into the house. Jia Qiheng looked at her back until she disappeared, without moving his eyes. He had a dull expression and was speechless.
...
Jia Guoye waited by the tree on the side of the road. When he saw Jia Mingzhang coming, he followed him silently and went to work in the fields with him.
"Here."
Jia Mingzhang took something out of his trouser pocket and handed him a small square wrapped in paper: "Hawthorn."
Jia Guoye put it in his pocket: "Thank you."
Jia Mingzhang asked: "Did you go to school to ask? What did the teacher say?"
Jia Guoye said: "The teacher gave me two bags of reference materials and two weeks to review. He said that if I passed the exam, I could go to the review class."
Jia Mingzhang nodded, which was similar to what he thought.
He thought, there is really no hope.
Jia Mingzhang comforted her,
"Keep calm and tell Xiaohuabao not to be too nervous. This can't be rushed."
Jia Guoye nodded, then said, "Uncle Mingzhang, don't tell anyone that I want to send Xiaorui to school. I'm afraid that everyone's gossip will affect her mood."
"Don't worry." Jia Mingzhang understood his concerns and said, "I will also tell my sister and your sister-in-law not to tell anyone."
"Thank you very much." Jia Guoye said sincerely, "Thank you, Uncle Mingzhang."
Jia Mingzhang smiled and patted him on the back, "Remember my kindness, then send me a bottle of wine during the New Year. Don't thank me all the time, as if I lent you money."
Jia Guoye nodded, "Sure."
He said, "Uncle Mingzhang, I have another favor to ask of you."
"Well, you say."
Jia Guoye asked:
"Can I meet Aunt Xihua?"
