Chapter 523 It's time to settle down and start a family.
As for finding a wife, he's not in a hurry.
After tucking the two little ones in, he and Ma Xiulian turned around, went out, and closed the door.
But Ma Xiulian was anxious: "Fourth brother, you're already twenty-five, it's time to settle down and start a family."
In rural areas, men who are 25 years old and get married early already have children old enough to run errands!
Chen Jianjun chuckled and said, "Mom, I'm really not in a hurry, and there aren't any suitable ones."
Ma Xiulian was speechless. The fourth son was good-looking and a worker, so his wife must be good too!
More importantly, the other person must be gentle and kind-hearted, and able to love the baby like their own daughter.
Thinking about it this way, she really didn't think much of any of the communes in the vicinity.
So he said, "Then next time I go to town, I'll ask Honghong to see if there's anyone suitable. If there is, we can go and have a look."
Except for not living in town anymore, our family's conditions are now about the same as those of the people in town.
Chen Jianjun pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, whatever you say."

In the darkness, Gu Tingyun held the soft, chubby little hand in her arms under the covers. After the outside world had completely quieted down, she whispered, "Goodnight, sweetie."
"Goodnight," Helian Jiao replied in a childish voice with her eyes closed.
Two seconds later, her breathing became long and steady.
Feeling her warm body temperature and smelling her milky scent, Gu Tingyun quickly fell asleep.
At this moment, Sanni is coaxing Jinbao to sleep in the old house.
During the two months that Li Chunhua went back to her parents' home, Jinbao was the one who took care of the baby, so Jinbao didn't cry for his mother now.
Chen Xiaobao had been playing outside all day and was already fast asleep in bed.
After putting Jinbao to sleep, Chen Jianye looked at Sanni and said in a low voice, "Sanni, you've suffered. Dad didn't know about this, otherwise he would have stopped it."
No matter what, he would never agree to sell his daughter to someone for a ghost marriage.
Sanni kept her head down, her eyes fixed on Jinbao, and gave a flat "hmm".
She had long since given up on him as her father, and hadn't even considered asking him to rescue her when she was sold.
Now all I want to do is study hard, earn money, leave this home, and take good care of my baby and be a good son to my grandparents!
It was precisely because Jinbao looked somewhat similar to Guaibao that Sanni liked to take him along.
Chen Jianye knew she was feeling wronged and sad, and he wasn't angry at her cold attitude. He just sighed softly, "Your mother... won't be coming back anymore."
I wonder how Chunhua is doing at Old Li's house. She got all that rice, cooking oil, and a hundred yuan to keep her on her side. At least she can eat her fill.
“She’s not my mother!” Sanni said expressionlessly, but with unusual firmness.
When Li Chunhua sold her to someone else, she was no longer her mother!
Chen Jianye frowned as he looked at her, wanting to say something, but then thought that Chunhua had indeed wronged his eldest daughter.
Sanni is still a child and must have been quite frightened, so it's normal for her to have such extreme thoughts right now.
So he waved his hand and said, "Never mind, after you and Chunhua are gone, you'll have to work harder on the housework. Dad will work hard to earn money to support you and your brother!"
As he spoke, he handed her the key to the kitchen cabinet.
He spoke with great conviction, but inwardly he began to worry.
Before, he and Chunhua's monthly work points were barely enough to eat. Now that he's the only one working in the fields, how is he going to support a family of four?
