Chapter 172 It's ruined
Xu Sui looked at Du Mei, who had already entered the house, and gently patted Grandma Qin's hand. "Xiao Mei is here. Let her talk to you. I won't disturb you any longer."
Some things are better left for you to say yourself.
After saying that, she got up and went back inside.
Old Mrs. Qin quickly pulled Du Mei into her room, closed the door, and whispered, "I heard from your second cousin-in-law that she found you a job. Tell me quickly, what kind of job is it?"
Du Mei pursed her lips, leaned close to the old lady's ear, and simply told her everything in one go.
"Grandma, that's roughly how it is. What do you think... I should choose?"
Without thinking, Old Mrs. Qin slapped Du Mei on the head. "Are you stupid? Of course, you should choose your second cousin-in-law and her husband."
"Someone like you, going to have a fake marriage? Does Liu Shunsheng think it's a fake marriage just because he says so?"
"Just you wait and see. If you go to the Liu family, once things are out in the open, you'll be taken advantage of and treated like a servant. You'll probably end up with nothing, losing your virginity and reputation. Forget about temporary work and money; you'll be lucky if he doesn't torture you to death."
This kind of man is really cunning; he gets all the benefits, and it's not impossible that he'll deny it later.
There's no such thing as a fake marriage in this world. If you get married, you get married; if you don't, you don't.
Seeing that her granddaughter still didn't quite understand, Grandma Qin was incredibly disappointed in her. She took a deep breath and explained the situation to her step by step.
"Look at your second cousin's wife and your second cousin, neither of them are ordinary people."
"Besides, you're related to them. If you build a good relationship with them, when you get older, they might think of you first if they have any suitable candidates or jobs available."
"They're not making you work for free; they're paying you according to market rates, and they even provide food and lodging. What's wrong with that? I was tempted when I heard that."
A nanny can earn at least twenty yuan a month.
Money is certainly important, but maintaining a good relationship with Xu Sui and her husband is equally important.
This silly child, how can she be so stupid? She's nothing like her grandmother, but more like her stupid and clumsy mother.
Such a good thing is hard to find even with a lantern, and you're still hesitating here.
If she were a few years younger, and if Xu Sui and Qin Yunzhou had asked her to be the one, she would have agreed without hesitation.
Going to the military is great. The food and accommodation are definitely different. When you say you're a military family member who went with the troops, you'll feel proud.
More importantly, there are so many unmarried soldiers in the military, and who knows, there might be someone you like, so there's no need to worry about marriage.
That kid is absolutely stupid.
Du Mei thought about it and agreed, but she still had some hesitation. "But... but my mother wants me to get married."
Although her mother loved her older and younger brothers more, she was actually quite good to her. Compared to other girls in the same production brigade who were sold off for food at the age of fifteen or sixteen, she was definitely lucky.
Grandma Qin slapped her on the forehead again, "You child, why are you worrying about this and that? Your mother is a fool, why do you listen to her?"
"Alright, listen to Grandma. If your mom has any objections, tell her to come talk to me."
Her daughter, despite being her own flesh and blood, is incredibly stupid.
When her daughter was young, she had clearly found her a good marriage in the city, but instead, she only had eyes for that good-for-nothing man. She moved into his house without a word and got pregnant.
What could she do? She simply gave up.
Now look what happened. Life in the countryside was tough enough for her, and her children didn't have an easy time either.
Upon hearing this, Du Mei smiled and nodded happily, "Okay, then I'll go and talk to my second cousin-in-law tomorrow."
Grandma Qin patted her granddaughter's hand and said, "That's right."
"Your second cousin's wife is only five months pregnant, so it's a bit early for her to give birth. However, she's carrying twins, and twins usually give birth earlier. You should go back to your hometown and wait. Explain things to your parents, and then come to the city after your second cousin's wife gives birth."
After saying that, something seemed off.
Old Mrs. Qin thought for a moment, then shook her head. "No, it's better not to go back to your home. Your letter of introduction is about to expire. Go back and get a few more letters of introduction in advance. Discuss with your second cousin-in-law that you don't need a salary for the first five months, and that you can continue to live here until she gives birth."
"Why don't you ask her?"
Winter has arrived and the weather has gotten cold, making life in the countryside even more difficult.
It would be best not to go back; who knows what might happen if we do.
Du Mei didn't want to go back either, and she didn't care much about the salary. Upon hearing this, she quickly nodded, "Okay, my second cousin-in-law will bring it up tomorrow."
Inside the next room.
Xu Sui was buried in her studies again. Although she felt that she was doing well, she still had to give it her all if she wanted to get into a good university in this era.
Since starting work, she only has time to study in the evenings.
Fortunately, she doesn't need to do anything at home; she doesn't even need to cook.
Now that her mother-in-law, Tian Hua, has gone to work, the housework has become a shared responsibility between Xiao Fen and Du Mei.
Every day after I get home from work, I can have a hot meal soon. The baby in my belly is also not fussy. Apart from my belly getting bigger and sometimes making things a little inconvenient, there are basically no problems.
Xu Suicai then had more energy to devote to her studies. She had already decided that if she was going to take the exam, she would take the best one and get into Beijing.
Qin Yunzhou still has a house in Beijing, and it's even near Peking University. Once she gets into a university in Beijing, she won't have to worry about housing at all, and she can see her two children anytime.
I studied for quite a while.
Xu Sui was tired from studying, and it was time for her to wash up and go to bed.
Just as she stood up from the chair, intending to wash the clothes she had changed out of that morning.
However, when they got to the dirty clothes basket, they found it was empty.
Xu Sui was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had remembered wrong. Could it be that she hadn't changed her clothes this morning?
She opened the closet but still couldn't find the clothes. She searched here and there, turning the small room upside down, but still couldn't find them.
On the bed, Qin Yunzhou, who was reading a book, noticed Xu Sui's unusual behavior. He looked up and quickly guessed what she was looking for.
Thinking of the two soft, small pieces of fabric he had washed that day, the man's ears turned red, and his expression became somewhat unnatural.
"Are you looking for the clothes you wore yesterday?"
Xu Sui nodded subconsciously, "Yes, did you see it?"
She has never been comfortable with others washing her clothes, especially her underwear.
So I always do it myself.
