Qin Tiantian understood that her parents were doing it for her own good, since the educated youth would eventually return to the city.
Men can be ruthless when it comes to their future.
After all, with a promising future, he might be able to marry a wife who can help him.
As for the child, having never experienced ten months of pregnancy and feeling that they could have another child later, they were completely willing to abandon it.
Zhang Guihua was also amazed and guessed, "That child was probably also forced into a very difficult situation by his family."
Otherwise, she wouldn't have rashly married a sent-down youth.
She sighed, "Hanxiu's family probably won't agree. They're hoping Hanxiu will find a son-in-law from the city to help the family get ahead."
Liu Yun asked curiously, "Mother, where do you think they'll register their household registration?"
Zhang Guihua shook her head; she really didn't know that.
I've never met that male educated youth.
I wonder what kind of person he is?
After this incident, Yunling became much more proactive at work.
I go to the office early every morning to ask Aunt Cai about the follow-up.
This day.
Aunt Cai told her that the groom's family came to the Hu family's house this afternoon to discuss the wedding arrangements.
"Aunt Chunyan agreed?" Yunling was very surprised.
She thought it would take some more time.
Cai Shaoyun nodded and said mysteriously, "Guess how much the dowry that educated youth gave to the Hu family?"
Yunling blinked and guessed, "Thirty?"
In Yunxi Brigade, most families ask for a dowry of twenty or thirty yuan when their daughters get married.
After all, there's not much income in the countryside; you only get a few dozen yuan a year.
Cai Shaoyun shook his head and said with a smile, "Guess again?"
Yunling asked curiously, "Up or down?"
Cai Shaoyun pointed to the roof with his finger.
"forty?"
"Fifty?"
...
When Cai Shaoyun guessed it was one hundred yuan, he nodded and said, "That's all."
Yunling couldn't help but exclaim, "There really are quite a lot."
Cai Shaoyun sneered, "With so much money, what could the Hu family possibly object to?"
She exclaimed, "The educated youth were really rich."
Yunling shook her head and said, "A minority, not all educated youth are so rich."
Cai Shaoyun sighed; she was even a little envious.
In the following days, the issue of the 100-yuan bride price caused quite a stir.
The educated youth settlement in Yunxi Brigade is no longer as hated as it used to be.
For a time, educated youth were quite popular.
Ye Qingsong heard a knock on the door, and when he opened it, he saw Aunt Zhou.
Is he introducing someone to a potential partner again?
He greeted them with an unchanged expression.
Fang Yuyan heard the commotion in the yard, peeked out of the window, and saw Aunt Zhou smiling.
The window slammed shut.
He said with a look of annoyance, "Here we go again, here we go again, so annoying."
She scratched her hair, sat up abruptly, and said, "No, I'm going to talk to the captain and tell him to keep a close eye on things. People are always trying to set us up with dates, like we're easy targets."
Zhao Qing'er nodded in agreement. She was shy and didn't dare to go out now.
"After Aunt Zhou leaves, we'll go find the team leader."
Chen Rong sneered and said, "What do you take our captain for? You want to control everything? How is that possible?"
Fang Yuyan said righteously, "Of course we have to take care of it. Otherwise, what if they set us up for money and something happens?"
Zhao Qing'er thought of Chen Ergou, who had been pestering her for the past two days, and nodded heavily.
She didn't want to marry Chen Ergou.
Sloppy and dirty-looking.
He does nothing productive all day long and just stays at home sponging off his mother.
Marrying her would ruin her life.
In the courtyard.
Aunt Zhou's eyes darted around, and she looked at Ye Qingsong, who was bringing her water, and asked curiously, "Where is everyone else? Are you the only one here?"
Ye Qingsong said, "Everyone is resting in their rooms."
Aunt Zhou looked at the sky; it was blue sky and white clouds. She was sleeping in her room during the day.
She came today on important business.
Her granddaughter, Zhou Cuicui, is sixteen this year and it's time for her to find a partner.
She searched for a long time but couldn't find a suitable one.
The matchmaker also introduced people from the city.
However, most people look down on country girls, and those who do have their own problems.
She doesn't even approve of them, so how could she allow her granddaughter to marry them?
Then, in the last two days, because of the Hu family's matter, I noticed the educated youth who came to the team.
First of all, she was all alone, yet she could live in the Zhou family's house right under her nose, and no one dared to mistreat her granddaughter.
Secondly, even if she returns to the city later, if she is a good person, it would be best to bring her granddaughter back to the city.
If she's not a good person, she'll ask for a large sum of money to save for her granddaughter. In the meantime, she'll ask her granddaughter to have a child, which she and her daughter-in-law will raise, ensuring her granddaughter's future is secure.
As for the gossip in the team, let them go, but they won't dare to say it to her directly, since her son died saving someone.
After observing for a few days, she found that the male educated youth at the settlement were quite good. Educated youth Ye was tall, had a steady personality, and was also responsible.
Jiang, the educated youth, looked simple-minded and easy to fool.
As for Song Zhiqing, she was out of the question; he had connections with people in the cowshed, and she wouldn't feel comfortable letting her granddaughter marry into that family.
Aunt Zhou sat down and said to Ye Qingsong with a smile, "You sit down too, Auntie has something to tell you."
Ye Qingsong was startled!
Is she trying to set him up with someone?
He slowly sat down, pondering how to refuse.
In the male educated youth's room, Jiang Fan also saw Ye Qingsong's expression change, and said to Song Chi with a smile, "It should be to introduce Brother Ye to a potential partner."
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Chi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Neither of them planned to get married in the countryside.
