After Li Zhu finished scolding, he looked at Lin Doudou and said, "Second wife, why don't you give your job to Yijun first? I'll give it back to you when you find a new job."
Lin Doudou: "..." This old guy is really bold. He, Shen Yijun, is not my son. It's none of my business. He says nice things, but whether he returns it or not is not up to you. I am stupid to do this. Sister-in-law can't do it, but isn't my brother still here? He can't bear to give up his own son, so why should I, an aunt, join in the fun?
Lin Doudou directly refused on the grounds that her parents did not agree, without giving Li Zhu any face at all.
Lin Ping also knew that it was basically impossible to rely on Lin Doudou, so she looked at Chen Feng: "Little sister, give your job to Yijun first. After this peak period of job hunting is over, we will go find a job and return it to you immediately after we find one, okay? If you are worried, we will buy it for you. You are Yijun's aunt, if you help him, Yijun will definitely thank you."
Chen Feng was displeased when she heard this. "My job is the foundation of my livelihood. Even though my colleagues laughed at me because of my divorce, I didn't leave. How could I possibly give it up? What if I couldn't find a job in the future and had to ask others for money? That would be even harder. If I don't have a job, my chances of remarrying are even slimmer. I absolutely can't give up this job. If I could remarry today, I'd still consider it, but it's impossible now."
"Sister-in-law, I'm divorced now and have nothing left. I only have a job. Do you want to take it away too? I have nothing. What's the point of living?" Chen Feng ran back to her room crying.
Lin Ping: Whose divorced wife still lives in her parents' home? As the eldest sister-in-law, I didn't object. I am very generous. But my aunt didn't even help with this little favor.
Lin Ping turned to Li Zhu and said, "Mom, please persuade my younger sister. She can stay at home even if she doesn't have a job, but I can't wait for Yijun. Now everyone in Jiangjia Village dares to torture him. If something happens, it will be too late to regret. Mom, Yijun is your grandson. You have to help him, wuwuwu..."
Li Zhu was in a dilemma. "Let me think about it. Let me think about it."
On the evening of June 16, Jiang Shushu and Yang Xiaobei walked hand in hand under the street lights.
"Xiaobei, we will go back to Jiangjia Village tomorrow, and get engaged the day after tomorrow. I want to ask you one last time, have you thought about it? This engagement is different from being a date." Dating can be broken up at any time, but engagement is a matter between families.
"Do I even need to ask? I've definitely thought it through. I want to date you because I approve of you, and I want to get engaged to you because I'm sure of you." Yang Xiaobei raised their clasped hands. "I want to hold your hand forever."
Jiang Shushu felt a pang of sadness. In her past life, she had seen the ups and downs of human nature, always alone, afraid of loneliness but also enjoying it. In this life, although Jiang Ming and his wife treated her well and she tried to fit in, she knew she was not the original owner. Jiang He and his wife's love was based on the original owner's, and when Jiang Shushu was occasionally sentimental, it felt unreal. Yang Xiaobei was the only one who stood firmly by Jiang Shushu's side, holding her hand and promising to be with her forever.
"Well, let's get engaged." If you don't let go, I won't let go either, and we'll hold hands for the rest of our lives.
On June 17, Jiang Shushu and Yang Xiaobei returned to Jiangjia Village carrying large and small bags. Although they only planned to set up two tables to invite the elders to dinner and serve as a witness, Jiang Shushu and Yang Xiaobei wanted to make it a beautiful occasion, so they brought back some candies, biscuits, bacon, sausages, etc. in advance to save for tomorrow and help prepare for tomorrow's affairs.
When she first arrived at the village entrance, Jiang Shushu felt someone was staring at her. She turned around and saw a short, thin, and somewhat dark-skinned girl staring at them intently. Jiang Shushu took a look and saw that she was someone she didn't recognize, so she guessed that she might be an educated youth.
After returning to the Jiang family, Jiang Shushu immediately asked: "Xiaobei, do you know the female comrade standing on the right when we passed by the village entrance just now? She kept staring at us." Since he didn't know her, the person she was looking at was most likely Xiaobei.
"The educated youth who came here at the end of last year, the last time I went to see He Aiguo and the others, I felt that she was a little mentally unstable. Zhao Cheng said that she always liked to worship people, calling them brother or sister, and then wanted to ask her recognized brother or sister to do her a favor and take advantage of her."
Three words immediately popped up in Jiang Shushu's mind: "Little White Lotus, no, Little Black Lotus." Unfortunately, his level was not high, and even Zhao Cheng, a thick-skinned person, could see it.
"No matter if she's a White Lotus or a Black Lotus, she's not at that level. She's just being clever, just like the one who tried to cover his ears and steal the bell." She's so offensive the first time you meet her. With such little skill and intelligence, how dare she get out like that? If she meets someone with a bad temper, she'll be blessed by her ancestors for not getting beaten up.
"That's awesome, Xiaobei. I guess I don't have to worry about you falling into any honey trap in the future." He is really an expert in dealing with bitches.
"In my eyes, you are the most beautiful. Can it be called a beauty trap if you are not as beautiful as you? How could I fall for it? Besides, I really want the younger one, so pretending to have one is enough." If I didn't like Shushu, I wouldn't even want a wife, so why would I use a beauty trap? I can just keep the money in my hand and spend it. Isn't it better?
Lin Meimei became anxious when she heard that Jiang Shushu and Yang Xiaobei were getting engaged tomorrow. Seeing a group of little kids coming in and out of Jiang's house with candies in their hands, she quickly followed the kids quietly, hoping to get some news from them.
When they were far away from the Jiang family, Lin Meimei appeared and asked casually, "What day is it today? Why are you all so happy? Why are you all holding candies?"
"My aunt is getting engaged tomorrow, and my uncle-in-law is giving us some candy. It's so delicious."
"Haha...my uncle is such a nice guy. He even said I'm very handsome and will definitely be the most handsome boy in Jiangjia Village in the future."
"Nonsense! My uncle-in-law said I'm the cutest and the most handsome one."
…
A group of little kids were talking at once, each saying his own thing.
When Lin Meimei was almost getting impatient, she finally heard a useful piece of news.
"My uncle-in-law is such a nice guy. I wanted to play with him this afternoon, but unfortunately he was busy because he had to go back to the city to pick up his elders."
Lin Meimei's mouth curled up with joy: "I have to go back to the city to pick up my elders. Jiang Shushu is getting engaged tomorrow, so he definitely won't go back with Yang Xiaobei. Yang Xiaobei will definitely go back alone that afternoon, and then I can make my own move. God is really helping me. Yang Xiaobei is destined to belong to me, haha."
After Lin Meimei got the news, she immediately turned around and asked for leave. Lin Meimei left the Hualing Brigade and came to a small river on the way back to the city, and then waited there quietly for Yang Xiaobei's arrival.
