Zhu Yue'e's words were pure nonsense, but they reminded Old Lady Wang. Yes! If Jiang Le became a member of the Gu family, would the marriage be advanced? The fourth child grabbed money with his left hand and a wife with his right hand. Oh my! The eldest of the family is really a clever ghost.

"Yes, old man, you are right. Your brain has finally opened up."

Zhu Yue'e was a little confused. Why did her mother-in-law suddenly praise her? Maybe she was speaking sarcastically, but judging from her expression, there was nothing wrong.

Old Mrs. Wang turned around and went into the house. She fumbled for change for the fourth child and thought about what Zhu Yue'e had said.

Susan glanced at Old Lady Wang and saw Zhu Yue'e's puzzled expression, so she asked curiously.

"What did you say to Mom? She looks so excited."

Zhu Yue'e was also confused!

Susan sighed.

"Tell me what you said, and I'll think about it for you."

Zhu Yue'e agreed that the second son's brain was useful, and she hurriedly repeated what Old Lady Wang had just said.

Susan understood immediately without having to think too much.

He glanced at the closed door of the fourth brother's room.

"You're going to have a fourth sibling soon."

"Didn't you reject me last night?"

Zhu Yue'e was still confused, and Susan smiled and shook her head.

"Think carefully about what you said, and then think about what your mother-in-law is thinking. You will understand once you are together."

Zhu Yue'e followed Susan's words and thought about it. Wow, she understood. She understood everything.

"Will the Jiang family agree to this?"

Susan raised her eyebrows and smiled at her.

"They all belong to the Gu family. Do you think the Jiang family has the final say on whether to agree or not?"

Zhu Yue'e was silent. Her mother-in-law was really...

Does that mean she has caught the fourth brother and his wife and if they offend her in the future?

Tsk tsk tsk, Zhu Yue'e was showing off. Susan saw what she was thinking at a glance but didn't point it out.

I'm just a little worried that the eldest couple may not be able to beat the fourth couple with their cunning.

When Gu Ye saw Jiang Le coming, he smiled and pulled him to the table to sit down.

"Did my mother act too abruptly last night and scare you?"

Jiang Le was a little confused. Her fourth brother was not angry, but comforted her instead.

Fourth brother is so nice. Jiang Le stared at Gu Ye with stars in his eyes. When he met those dark eyes, his face was full of shyness and he quickly lowered his head.

"Thank you for your consideration, Fourth Brother. I just want to make more money so that I can save up more for my dowry. It will be good for both you and me."

Gu Ye looked at Jiang Le deeply. Did he think he was a three-year-old child?

But he still agreed with Jiang Le.

"You're right. I'll listen to you. Let's set off for the county town now."

Jiang Le was delighted and quickly agreed.

Susan mentioned it in the morning. She had paid a five-dollar deposit, but Gu Ye didn't intend to tell anyone about it.

Of course he took the deposit he paid, and Jiang Le just went along for the formality.

Old Lady Wang knew that the two were going to the county town, so she called the fourth child into the house and handed him five dollars.

"Old Four, tell me, if Jiang Le and you have something going on, can we become relatives with the captain's family sooner? Then you can get a job sooner."

Gu Ye's eyes flickered. He was somewhat tempted by this proposal, but after thinking about it, he gave up on Old Lady Wang's proposal.

"Mom, I don't want to leave a stain. What if someone finds out and uses this to attack me?"

When Old Lady Wang heard this and thought of that possibility, her face turned pale. She was taking it for granted.

"Yes, you are right. Mother is too concerned and confused. You can handle it yourself."

Gu Ye nodded and took five dollars.

Set off for the county town with Jiang Le.

Zhu Yue'e and Gu Rong looked at the people walking away, feeling a sense of frustration in their hearts.

"Second sister-in-law, did they really let them take over your work?"

Susan looked at the two worried faces and shook her head helplessly.

"Mom asked, what can I do? They'll find it even if I don't tell them. It'll save everyone's face if I tell them."

Gu Rong was silent for a moment and looked at Susan with resentment.

"Second sister-in-law's face looks better, but she has no job to eat."

Susan didn't answer, but looked up at Gu Rong.

After Gu Rong finished speaking, she realized what she had said. When she received Susan's gaze, her back felt numb.

"Second sister-in-law, I was wrong. I just didn't keep my mouth shut. Please don't bother with me."

Susan ignored her and went about her business.

Gu Rong was worried and pulled Zhu Yue'e to ask her to say a few words for her, but Zhu Yue'e pretended not to see it.

She didn't want to offend the second family, and she was happy to see Gu Rong provoke the second family. At that time, she would be the only one in the family who was close to the second family, and when the second family had good things in the future, they would think of her first.

The more Zhu Yue'e thought about it, the happier she felt.

Jiang Le and Gu Ye found the factory as Susan said.

It was indeed the place, and they knew the price.

The two of them became even more excited.

Gu Ye already knew that he had to pay five yuan for the matchboxes, so he accepted it immediately without being told, and asked for 30,000 matchboxes in one go.

The man looked up at Gu Ye.

"You're asking for too much. A five-dollar deposit won't do."

Gu Ye was stunned. He only had eight dollars with him. Just now, he passed by a sesame cake shop. Jiang Le was so greedy that he pulled him to buy one. He watched Jiang Le eat it and wanted to eat it too, so he bought two. He lost one dollar and now had only six dollars left, so he could only buy 11,000 cakes.

He was a little dissatisfied with Jiang Le. Instead of eating chicken, he was craving sesame cakes.

But it didn't show.

"Lele, do you have money?"

This is exactly what Jiang Le was waiting for.

"Fourth brother, I brought it. I brought ten yuan."

Gu Ye gritted his teeth and said, ten yuan. He was asked to pay for the pancake just now, but now he pays quickly.

Jiang Le paid ten dollars, and fifteen dollars could get thirty thousand pieces of materials.

But when signing, Jiang Le had to sign his own name alone.

Gu Ye couldn't make her write.

He paid five dollars, and if she had the same idea as him, the five dollars would be wasted.

"Let's each sign our own! You earn the dowry, and I earn the bride price."

When Jiang Le heard the first half of the sentence, she felt a little unhappy and doubtful. Could it be that her fourth brother had the same idea as her? But when she heard the second half of the sentence, she felt happy. Her fourth brother was so nice!

"Fourth brother, I listen to you."

Gu Ye received 10,000 pieces of material, and Jiang Le received 20,000 pieces of material.

The two of them calculated it and after deducting the cost, they figured they could make about four yuan for every 10,000 pieces. With so many people in the village, they could finish the job in two days, making two yuan a day, which means sixty yuan a month. That's incredible!

That's a lot of money.

The two returned to the village happily, and were known as Captain Jiang Le's daughters.

The villagers knew that they had to do manual labor, although it was relatively cheap, four for one cent, but when they thought about the slack season, the villagers could not find any other way to make money except to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables.

Everyone agreed.

Things were going on in full swing over there. Zhu Yue'e came back from Gu Ye with some things and went to the villagers to inquire about it. She came back with a sigh.
