"Big brother, tell your sister-in-law to stop working and come to my house..." Jian Zhongliang gestured with his lips, indicating to Jian Zhongkang to look at the crabs and lobsters in the big basin.

"I was just thinking of having Yi Yi go and call you when you came over."

“Sure! My sister-in-law and I will bring over the crabs and prawns later, and we’ll have a good meal. I also have two bottles of the good wine that Yiwei brought back last time, so we can enjoy them.” Jian Zhongkang said with a smile.

“Sure! I’ve been wanting a taste of that for a while now,” Jian Zhongliang said hastily.

These days, although wages have increased, the habit of spending money wisely has been ingrained in the DNA of this generation.

For a bottle of wine that costs ten or twenty yuan, let alone drinking it, they're afraid the aroma will fade if they just smell it for a moment.

The fine wine that Lu Yujing brought was placed on the top shelf of the wine cabinet by Jian Zhongliang that very evening.

The top shelf of the wine cabinet requires a stool to reach, and Jian Zhongliang used to find it troublesome, so he would only put things that he wouldn't need for a while on it.

It wasn't until Jian Qingyi went crazy and smashed all the good cigarettes and liquor in the wine cabinet that Jian Zhongliang cleaned out the top shelf overnight to release the "fish that slipped through the net" that Jian Qingyi hadn't destroyed.

I'm afraid that Jian Qingyi might suddenly become unhappy and start all over again.

Before long, Wang Xiujuan and Jian Zhongkang brought over crabs and lobsters.

The men drank tea and chatted, while the women went to the kitchen to busy themselves.

"Yiyi, what do you think of that girl Luo Zhenzhu?" Wang Xiujuan, who was sitting on a small stool washing crabs, suddenly asked.

"My older brother told you," Jian Qingyi said with a smile.

She truly hadn't expected Jian Yiwei to speak so quickly.

He had only been at the table for one meal when he reported back home.

“A few days ago, his aunt wanted to introduce her to your brother’s niece. Your brother came back a few days ago, so I thought I’d let him go and meet her. Your brother, being the simpleton he is, told her about his girlfriend.” Wang Xiujuan explained with a smile.

"Yiyi, what do you think of that girl?"

Wang Xiujuan still wanted to hear her family's opinion.

Marrying a daughter-in-law is not like buying cabbage, where you can just throw her away if she doesn't like it. Marrying a daughter-in-law means living with her for a lifetime, so you can't have a bad character.

"She's a nice girl, always cheerful and talkative, not the kind of person who's cunning." That was the impression Luo Zhenzhu gave Jian Qingyi.

“If she weren’t good, she wouldn’t have become friends with my second sister,” Jian Qingyi added.

Hearing that she was still friends with her daughter, Wang Xiujuan finally felt relieved.

“Your older brother is not young anymore, and your uncle and I were worried about this. Now it’s all right.” This can be considered as relieving Wang Xiujuan of a great worry.

Jian Yiwei is neither too old nor too young. Although he is not considered old in the military, which is full of older young people, there are several people his age in the family compound whose children are old enough to run errands.

Even if things aren't great, he still has a wife.

Chien Yi-wei is the only one who doesn't even have a partner.

Wang Xiujuan tried her best to make arrangements for him, but he didn't come back, so all her efforts were in vain.

Just like the niece from Jian Yiwei's great-aunt's family. His aunt thought she was good and always wanted to introduce her to Jian Yiwei. Wang Xiujuan was also very satisfied with her. However, Jian Yiwei never had time to come back and meet her. Now, her child is already running around everywhere.

“Yiyi, there are so many good young men in the army, but you didn’t get to go this time…” Wang Xiujuan winked at Jian Qingyi.

“Aunt, I’m still in school!” Jian Qingyi sighed and smiled.

She was only seventeen, the prime of her life, a time for striving and making progress.

man……

It will only affect the speed at which she earns money.

With money, what kind of young, handsome men can't you get?!

What kind of abs can't you feel?!

As a person, you need to broaden your horizons.

Falling in love with every woman you meet isn't just a male prerogative.

"We can talk about it first! We can get married when we reach the right age." Wang Xiujuan was quite open-minded.

"Aunt, my second sister hasn't found a boyfriend yet! You should think about her first!" Jian Qingyi tried to shift the focus.

“Your second sister is a real problem!” Wang Xiujuan couldn’t help but sigh as she talked about her daughter, who was of marriageable age but still didn’t have a boyfriend.

"That's why you should find a partner as early as possible. Look at your second sister, she's of marriageable age but hasn't found a partner yet, it's worrying."

"Yiyi, you'd better hurry up! Don't end up like your second sister, who's already so old..."

“Yiyi, your aunt is right. You have to find a partner early, or all the good ones will be taken.” Jian Zhongkang, who was drinking tea in the living room, probably overheard their conversation and chimed in.

"My little niece is beautiful and well-educated, so why would I worry about not having good young men coming to her door to choose from?" Factory Director Wu joked with a smile.

"I'd be grateful if someone was willing to take her on, let alone be picky," Jian Zhongliang said, feigning disdain.

“With you supporting me, what am I afraid of? As long as I don’t get married, you have to support me every day. If I don’t get married for the rest of my life, you have to support me for the rest of my life. After all, I’m your daughter!” Jian Qingyi said immediately.

"Look at me, I didn't raise a daughter, I raised a debt collector." Jian Zhongliang's words were full of disgust.

But anyone could hear the doting in his tone.

Jian Xiaojing, who was picking vegetables with her back to the living room, gritted her teeth as she listened.

She was clearly the most obedient one.

When a family member was hospitalized, she went to help with cleaning and laundry.

Jian Qingyi went there, sat down, did nothing, and was like a Bodhisattva.

She worked hard for several days, but didn't receive a single kind word in return.

Especially that old hag, who actually cursed her behind her back, calling her a burden.

Do you really think she wants to be this burden on her family?!

If her biological father hadn't died young, leaving her family without support...

Jian Xiaojing glared at Li Meiqian, who was chopping ribs with a kitchen knife, with dissatisfaction.

If she hadn't been afraid of dying and stayed inside instead of helping, would the Jian family have targeted them like this?!

Although Jian Zhongliang didn't show it outwardly, she still sensed a slight difference.

"Jian Xiaojing, what are you thinking about? You've almost finished peeling all the celery." Wang Xiujuan's voice interrupted Jian Xiaojing's resentment.

Everyone hadn't noticed at first, but after hearing what Wang Xiujuan said, they all subconsciously looked over.

She tore a small bunch of celery, which only required the leaves to be removed, into a mess.

"I...I...I was thinking about my homework." Jian Xiaojing hurriedly lowered her head to pick out the celery that wasn't too badly damaged.

Seeing this, Li Meiqian, who had just chopped the ribs, quickly went over to help.

"Xiao Jing is really hardworking. She doesn't even forget her homework while helping her mother with chores," Factory Director Wu praised with a smile.

"What effort did she put in? She's just tinkering around. She's nowhere near as good as Yi Yi," Li Meiqian said modestly.

Jian Zhongliang smiled but didn't say anything.

A few days ago, Director Wu, as the head of the factory, naturally knew about the fight between the Yang family and the Jian family. Now, seeing Jian Zhongliang's attitude, he could guess a thing or two.
