Siheyuan: It’s so nice to be Lao Liu
Chapter 10 Inquire about Yan Jiefang's situation and discuss finding a partner for Jingru
After Yan Jiefang and He Yushui went to school together, Qin Guoqing thought about it again and again, and went to the steel mill in person to ask Qin Huairu whether Yan Jiefang's situation was the same as he said.
At noon, Qin Guoqing saw Qin Huairu and asked directly, "Huairu, do you know Yan Jiefang who lives in the same courtyard with you? Is their family doing well?"
Qin Huairu was confused by her second uncle's questioning. What was going on? He asked about the Yan family right away.
Qin Huairu said, "Second Uncle, what's going on? Why are you asking about Yan Jiefang's family situation?"
Knowing that he hadn't explained the situation clearly, Qin Guoqing quickly explained, "Yesterday, Yan Jiefang came to our village to purchase something and saw your sister Jingru. He thought your sister was pretty and wanted to date your sister, so he told her about his situation. By the way, he lives in the same courtyard as you, so I came to ask you about it!"
Qin Guoqing did not tell him about Yan Jiefang's promise to collect three turns, one bell and fifty yuan for the betrothal gift. If his family's situation was not good, these promises would definitely not be believed. If the situation was good, these things would definitely be collected, so he did not say it.
Hearing this news, Qin Huairu's brain quickly turned, several ideas kept switching, and finally decided on an idea. She had to mess up this matter. The third uncle Yan Bugui was a top-notch old stingy man who would calculate every penny into three words. Even if she, a super green tea bitch, wanted to calculate him, she would not do it. If Qin Jingru married him, her family would not get any benefits.
But if she marries Qin Jingru to someone else, with her green tea nature, Qin Jingru will have to support her Jia family obediently!
Having made up her mind, Qin Huairu said, "Second Uncle, Jingru cannot marry Yan Jiefang."
"Let me tell you about their family situation. Yan Bugui is a teacher at Hongxing Primary School, earning 27.5 yuan a month. There are four children in the family. The eldest, Yan Jiecheng, is married and has no formal job. The other three children are still in school. The family of seven lives together and relies on Yan Bugui's 27.5 yuan a month to survive."
"If Jingru marries him, do you think she will have a good life? Even if he is asked to take five dollars as a betrothal gift, he may not give it."
After learning about the situation of the Yan family, Qin Guoqing didn't know what to say and stammered, unable to speak.
Qin Huairu asked, "Second Uncle, what did Yan Jiefang say to you that made you agree to let Jingru date him?"
Qin Guoqing also felt that there was nothing to hide, so he told Yan Jiefang what he had promised: "The boy said that he was a high school student, and that he would be able to work in a factory after graduating this year, and that he would be able to get three turns, one ring, and fifty yuan as a gift."
After Qin Guoqing finished speaking, Qin Huairu burst out laughing. She tried to hold back and said, "Second Uncle, how could you be so easily fooled by him? It's true that he is a high school student. Even if he graduates this year and enters the factory, he may not be a formal worker. With a salary of more than ten yuan a month, how can he buy a three-turn and a ring, let alone the fifty yuan betrothal gift money."
Although Qin Guoqing was embarrassed and blushed, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Fortunately, he asked Huairu, otherwise he would have been fooled by that boy. He thought his family situation was the same as he said, because he was so confident and asked him to find someone to find out. He didn't expect that it was all made up by that boy.
Seeing her second uncle's embarrassed expression, Qin Huairu quickly changed the subject and said, "Second uncle, Jingru is also old enough to get married. Can I introduce her to a girl from the city?"
During this period, He Yuzhu stopped bringing food to her family, and their quality of life had obviously declined. In addition, because of her family's reasons, she asked him to pay a sum of money, so she needed to give him some sweet treats and rewards to make him keep up the good work and continue to help her family.
She had also made plans. Under the pretext of arranging a blind date for He Yuzhu and Qin Jingru, she would stimulate He Yuzhu's enthusiasm and generosity, increase his help to her family, and finally marry Qin Jingru to a rich man so that others could support her family.
Anyway, He Yuzhu was already trapped, so just give him some sweet treats, and he had to maximize his profits. If Qin Jingru married someone else, it would be two families supporting her family; if she married He Yuzhu, it would be one family supporting her family, and she would definitely not do a business that would lose money.
Qin Guoqing knew he was cheated and planned to go back, so he said, "Okay, help your sister find a date in the city! I won't disturb you from working, I'll go back to work first!"
Seeing that her second uncle was about to leave, Qin Huairu said, "Let Jingru come this Saturday. I have a chef in my yard. He earns 32.5 yuan a month. He also earns more than 10 yuan a month from taking private jobs. There are three rooms in my house, and my sister is going to graduate and work this year."
"Have her come on Saturday, and go see someone for a blind date. There's a movie in the evening, so you can watch a movie while you're at it."
"Okay, I'll let Jingru come to see you on Saturday. Your sister doesn't know anything, so you should help her more." Qin Guoqing said.
Things are unpredictable. When Yan Jiefang made his bold statement at Qin Guoqing's house, he thought that in a few days he would be able to exchange a lot of things on the black market or the pigeon market with the things produced in his space. Then he could go find Qin Huairu and bribe her, and the marriage would be secured.
Unexpectedly, Qin Guoqing came to Qin Huairu the next day and disrupted his plan. Qin Huairu directly exposed their family background. According to the situation of the Yan family, plus Qin Huairu's calculations, this marriage was considered a failure.
Although the relationship between him and Qin Jingru failed, He Yushui was taken down under the "coercion" of the system.
