A crazy beauty has an island, and a powerful figure from that era dotes on her.

Having just finished eating, Jian Qingyi couldn't fall asleep in bed, so she took out the new book she had just received that day and started reading.

Confucius once said, "Only morality and knowledge truly belong to us; no one can take them away from us."

Jian Qingyi wholeheartedly agreed.

In just two hours, Jian Qingyi had integrated the knowledge from the new book with what she had learned in her later life.

After stuffing the new book back into her bag, Jian Qingyi yawned lazily and lay back down on the bed.

The saying "spring drowsiness and autumn fatigue" still holds some truth.

candy factory

A young woman in a floral dress ran quickly into the production workshop.

She looked around and ran straight to the candy packaging section in the southeast corner.

"Uncle Jian, you have a phone call." She stopped breathlessly in front of a handsome middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was bending over and talking to a young man who was sitting down. After hearing this, he gave the young man a few more instructions before turning around and striding out of the workshop.

The young woman jogged to catch up.

"Who called?" The middle-aged man walked very quickly.

“He said he’s your son,” the young woman said hastily.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man took even bigger steps.

The production workshop is not far from the receiving and dispatching room; it's only a three or four-minute walk.

The moment he picked up the microphone, a warm smile crept onto the handsome face of the middle-aged man.

"Yiwei, how are you and your sister? I heard from your Uncle Liu that you called yesterday. It was your aunt's birthday yesterday, and your mother and I went to celebrate with her, so I didn't answer the phone. Is there something you need?"

“Liqiu and I are both fine, Dad. How are you and Mom doing? Your back isn’t good, so please don’t do any heavy work.” Jian Yiwei’s concerned voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Your mother and I are both fine, so don't worry about us. Take good care of yourself while you're away." The middle-aged man's handsome face was beaming with joy.

As a father, what could make him happier than his children being filial?!

"It's going to get colder soon, remember to wear an extra layer when you go out..."

"You're not young anymore, it's time to think about your personal life. And your sister, as her older brother, you should also take care of her."

……

The middle-aged man kept talking incessantly.

Seeing that the topic was getting further and further off track, Jian Yiwei on the other end of the phone hurriedly asked, "Dad, my mom called last time and said that my grandma found Yiyi a butcher who had lost his wife and had a child. How's that going?"

The middle-aged man glanced at the young woman chatting with someone at the office door and lowered his voice, "I heard it's fallen through. Your grandma returned all the betrothal money to them."

They got back from their sister-in-law's house late at night, having only overheard someone mention it this morning on their way to work.

He wasn't entirely clear on the specifics of the situation.

All I know is that the marriage has fallen through and the betrothal gifts have been returned.

"That's good! That's good!" Jian Yiwei breathed a sigh of relief.

He was worried all night because he couldn't get through on the phone yesterday, fearing that something important might be delayed.

"Dad, Grandma and Grandpa are getting old and easily influenced. You should try to persuade them more often. No matter what, Yiyi is still our Jian family's daughter. We can't let her suffer." Fearing that the two old people might cause some trouble again, Jian Yiwei gave his father a heads-up.

"You know your grandma's temper..." The middle-aged man looked troubled.

If anything doesn't go her way, she'll throw a tantrum, cry, and threaten suicide.

As the younger generation, they sometimes feel helpless.

"No matter what, she can't joke about Yi Yi's future!" Jian Yiwei frowned.

Marriage is not a game of make-believe.

If a girl finds an unreliable man, it could ruin her life.

The middle-aged man sighed.

He understands the principle.

But there are some things and some people that he can't reason with.

"Dad, find some time to have a good talk with Second Uncle! Don't listen to those people who say that biological daughters and stepdaughters should be treated equally and not differently."

"Those people are all talking without understanding the situation. If it were really like what they say, there would be no distinction between relatives and descendants."

"No matter what, family is family, and the younger generation is the younger generation."

Jian Yiwei really didn't know what his second uncle was thinking.

Aside from feigning pitifulness and shed a few drops of cat urine, he really couldn't see anything good about Li Meiqian and her daughter.

"I'll have a good talk with your second uncle." The middle-aged man sighed again.

When it came to his second brother, all he could do was sigh.

He's in his fifties or sixties, not only is he easily swayed, but he also can't see things clearly.

“You know a lot of people outside, so if you find someone suitable, you should also find one for Yi Yi, so that your grandparents won’t cause any more trouble.”

"Oh yeah! How could I have forgotten about that?" Jian Yiwei slapped his thigh.

What their unit has no shortage of are young men with ideals, ambitions, and good character.

"Dad, I'll go ask about it later." Jian Yiwei was instantly energized.

The middle-aged man hurriedly said, "Then you'd better choose carefully. We're from a small county, so we don't care about family background, but the person must have good character. We absolutely cannot accept the kind of person who is greedy and has their cake and eat it too."

"Also, you can't marry someone whose parents-in-law are opinionated and have bad tempers."

The middle-aged man spoke while racking his brains for a solution.

"It would be best if it wasn't too far from here. If it's too far, it won't be easy for Yi Yi to go back to her parents' home."

"The family background must not be too prestigious."

Marrying up in a good position sounds glamorous and prestigious, but only she herself knows the heartache and grievances involved.

"Dad, don't worry! I know." Jian Yiwei wasn't stupid.

Isn't the girl from the Liu family in the residential compound a perfect example?

Instead of having a childhood sweetheart, she insists on climbing the social ladder.

Are high branches so easy to climb?

Yes, they are rich, but did they give you the money?

Not only does she work like a slave in other people's homes, but her own parents also act like subservient grandchildren in front of them, unable to say a single word of pride.

"Remember to tell these things to your sister too," the middle-aged man reminded her.

“I will,” Jian Yiwei nodded in agreement.

After hanging up the phone, Jian Yiwei began to think about it seriously.

He has ideals and ambitions, good character, and comes from an average family background...

They can't be too ugly either.

He can't be too short either.

Although everyone says the father is short...

But who can say for sure?

If they were to be born into a family with a short stature, wouldn't that be putting his own nephew in a difficult position?!

Once the conditions were set, Jian Yiwei began to investigate each case one by one.

The investigation began at noon, and the person was arrested in the afternoon.

Faced with the oppressive atmosphere, Chien Yi-wei didn't even dare to lift his head.

"What? Not challenging enough being a soldier? Want to switch careers and become a matchmaker?" The person behind the desk sounded rather resentful.

Chien Yi-wei lowered his head even further.
