"Comrade Li is an only child?" She only talked about herself and briefly mentioned her family situation, which was definitely not particularly outstanding.
"No, I have brothers and sisters at home." Li Qiuguo didn't want to say much about the situation at home.
Jiang Shushu's eyes were full of admiration, his tone was cheerful, and he was full of curiosity. "Who else is there? Comrade Li is so outstanding, he must have many brothers and sisters. Can you introduce them to him?" As long as Li Qiuguo was interested in Jiang Mingli, she would answer her questions even if she didn't want to say it.
Li Qiuguo wanted to refuse, but seeing Jiang Shushu's happy face, she couldn't refuse. She was afraid of leaving a bad impression on Jiang Shushu, so she could only say simply: "They are all good. I have two older sisters, a younger sister, and a younger brother. My two older sisters are married, my younger sister works in a textile factory, and my younger brother goes to school."
"What grade is your younger brother in school?" There are four girls and one boy in the family, so they must favor boys over girls. The two older sisters didn't say anything, so they must have married a poor family. The younger sister only said the name of the factory, and her job was either a hard laborer or a temporary worker. The younger brother should not be very old.
"Fifth grade."
As expected, Jiang Mingli is not stupid. Logically speaking, he would not look for someone to hold him back. Could it be that this Li Qiuguo has some outstanding qualities?
Yang Xiaobei calmly watched the two women testing each other, not even daring to breathe, for fear of affecting their performance.
Jiang Wenzhe shouted, "Dad," interrupting the conversation between Jiang Shushu and the others.
Jiang Shushu smiled happily when he saw Jiang Mingli coming out, then glanced at Xu Hehua behind him. Seeing that Xu Hehua's face was calm, he turned his gaze away.
When the time comes, I’ll ask my mom to see what Jiang Mingli is doing.
At dinner, Li Qiuguo saw a table full of delicious food and was even more satisfied with the Jiang family. The only flaw was that there were four legs on each chicken, and the two children each got a large chicken leg, so Jiang Shushu ate the remaining two legs. Li Qiuguo didn't get a chicken leg, and felt that Xu Hehua and Jiang Shushu didn't value her, so she secretly took a note of them.
In the evening, Jiang Mingli sent Li Qiuguo to Jiang Mingwen's house. As soon as they left the house, Jiang Shushu found Xu Hehua.
"Mom, what's going on with Comrade Li?"
"Your brother asked us to help take a look at Comrade Li's character. He's afraid he can't tell for sure. If we all think he's a good person, he plans to try to get along with Comrade Li."
"Did I tell you about Comrade Li's family background and her situation?" Li Qiuguo was a very cunning person. If they really got married, the two children would probably suffer.
"I haven't asked yet. When your brother comes back, I'll ask him. Your father and I will observe her more in the next two days. You and Xiaobei should also help me and your father observe her more."
"OK."
Jiang Shushu felt some movement at the door and immediately turned his head to look over. He saw Jiang Wenzhe lying by the door. "Jiang Wenzhe, come in."
Jiang Wenzhe felt embarrassed and a little scared after being caught. He walked into the house slowly and said, "Hello, Grandpa, Grandma, Aunt and Uncle."
"What are you doing lying at the door? Eavesdropping?"
"Aunt, I didn't mean it. I heard you mention that bad woman's name, so I wanted to hear what you had to say." After spending an afternoon together, although Jiang Wenzhe was a little afraid of Jiang Shushu, he was not afraid of Jiang Jianghe and his wife at all.
"The bad woman you are talking about is Li Qiuguo who came back with your father?" Li Qiuguo didn't seem like such a stupid person as she started abusing children before she even took the position.
"That's her."
Xu Hehua hurriedly asked, "What did Li Qiuguo do to you? Why did you call her a bad woman? Did she beat you in private? Did she scold you?"
"No, but she looked at me and my brother with disgust. I saw her glaring at Wen Chen and me several times when Dad was not around."
"Are you sure you're not lying? If you lie to us, I'll beat you up."
"I didn't lie. Anyone who lies is a puppy."
"Have you mentioned it to your father?" Jiang Mingli cared about his two sons very much.
Jiang Wenzhe was a little frustrated. "I mentioned it, but my dad didn't believe it. He said she was very good to us and that I was mistaken."
Jiang He said, "Wenzhe, we will observe that person carefully in the next few days. If there is really something wrong with her, grandpa will tell your father in person. Please don't tell your father about our conversation tonight."
"good."
"Go play with your brother."
After Jiang Wenzhe left, Jiang He spoke up: "Let's observe Li Qiuguo more these days." If Jiang Mingli, that fool, wants to marry her because of her bad character, I'll break his legs. What's that look? What the hell is he looking for?
When Jiang Mingli returned home, he saw the family sitting together chatting, so he went over.
Xu Hehua: "Mingli, sit down. Can you tell me about Comrade Li? I want to hear it."
"Yes, Li Qiuguo is an officer in the Propaganda Department. Her job is quite leisurely, and she has plenty of free time (to take care of her family). She's gentle (easy to get along with), generous (she has money and keeps most of her salary herself), and independent (she has her own opinions and doesn't spend all day thinking about her parents). Her parents are general workers... Her eldest sister married the workshop leader, her second sister went to the countryside and married a villager. She has a younger sister who works as a temporary worker in a textile machinery factory, and a younger brother who is in fifth grade."
Jiang Shushu: "..." It seems that Jiang Mingli is interested in Li Qiuguo.
Xu Hehua: Comrade Li is so outstanding? Is what Wenzhe said true? Or is it false?
Jiang He: "We understand. We will get along well with Comrade Li in the next few days." Whether it is good or bad, we will know after getting along with him.
"Okay, thanks to Mom and Dad for checking on me."
In bed at night, Yang Xiaobei whispered, "Shushu, do you think your brother and Li Qiuguo can succeed?"
"It's hard to say. It depends on how Li Qiuguo performs these days. Anyway, this woman is not a naive person."
The next day, Jiang Shushu and Yang Xiaobei got up early in the morning. They secretly ate a full meal and then brushed their teeth before going their separate ways. Jiang Shushu put on some light makeup and put on a red dress. She looked in the mirror and felt beautiful.
Li Qiuguo followed the girls from the village into Jiang Shushu's room. Li Qiuguo saw Jiang Shushu's wedding dress, the furnishings in Jiang Shushu's room, and Jiang Shushu's wardrobe... How could she hide her jealousy?
How can a village girl live in such a beautiful room? How can she own so many clothes... She obviously has a son at home, but she held her wedding at her parents' home. She really doesn't understand the etiquette at all. The old couple of the Jiang family must have bought a lot of these things. They are really a waste of money. These should all belong to Mingli, and should be reserved for Mingli marriage.
Jiang Shushu looked at Li Qiuguo with a slightly cold look in his eyes: What the hell is this woman saying with an expression that says I'm taking her things? She's lost her mind so early in the morning. Not to mention that she hasn't married Jiang Mingli yet, even if she did, my things would have nothing to do with her.
He is short-sighted, self-righteous, and greedy. He deserves a bad review.
In order to have a sense of ceremony, Yang Xiaobei set out from Jiang Mingwen's home to pick up Jiang Shushu.
