Chapter 499: Good calculation
Mother Zhou didn’t want to make trouble for herself when during the New Year season. Although she didn’t want to see old Madam Zhu at all, she was still polite.
Old Madam Zhu had just seen it. Zhou Qing Bai drove over to pick up Father Zhou and the others. It was said that they were going to the hot springs.
They can really enjoy.
So, old Madam Zhu came over so soon. She knew Mother Zhou didn’t want to see her. In fact, she look down on Mother Zhou, an old country woman. However, it was for her grandson (from daughter’s side) in the end.
After all, with such an in-law family, the future of her grandson was bright.
Old Madam Zhu didn’t mention the match-making right away. She chattered with Mother Zhou about gossips. Mother Zhou didn’t talk very much. Only answering occasionally. This attitude can be said to be very obvious.
So old Madam Zhu couldn’t talk about the matter she wanted to say. When she returned home, she told old Mister Zhu about it.
“I went over and gave New Year’s greeting with good intention and she’s still not willing to pay attention to me. Giving face and not accepting it!” Old Madam Zhu scolded.
“Enough. Since she doesn’t pay attention to you, then you can go there less. Where did all this matter come from?” Old Mister Zhu responded.
“How can that do? I want to match our grandson to her rural granddaughter.” Old Madam Zhu vetoed.
Old Mister Zhu was stunned for a moment. He didn’t know that his wife had these thoughts. He uttered in impatience, “Forget it.”
That grandson was currently a temporary worker. He didn’t have a fixed work unit. Also, his look can’t pass. It’ll weird if old Zhou Family can set their eyes on him.
Didn’t she see their grandson-in-law? He started his own factory.
“What? What’s the matter? You dislike our grandson that much? What’s wrong with him? He’s safely working and got household registration in the capital. That girl got rural one!” Old Madam Zhu replied in displeasure.
Old Mister Zhu didn’t want to talk to her anymore. Instead, he asked, “Open and close mouth is rural household registration. Then why do you want to introduce her to your grandson?”
“Well, isn’t old Zhou Family’s condition good? And that girl’s sister is going to marry a big boss. Our grandson’s work is also unstable right now. If he gets together with her, then won’t her brother-in-law introduce the next one?” explained old Madam Zhu.
Old Mister Zhu really didn’t consider about this. In fact, there was this point. If it works out, it would be good. In his opinion, he also wanted to be relatives with old Zhou family. After all, old Zhou family was really nice. Not like those cunning and deceitful kind.
“Go talk to Sister-in-law Hu?” Old Mister Zhu said.
It wasn’t that old Madam Zhu hadn’t sought old Madam Hu out. That old woman still held grudge on her remark on her family Zhen Zhen’s matchmaking matter from last time. So she wasn’t willing to take up the task.
However, old Madam Zhu had been neighbors with her for so many years. how could she not know old Madam Hu’s character. So, she came knocking with a gift and good-naturedly conversed with old Madam Hu. If this matter succeed, then when the time comes, she won’t short her a red envelope.
Only then old Madam Hu budged and expressed that she would ask when she had time. As for the red envelope or something, no need.
Old Madam Zhu insisted that the red envelope must be given. With this, old Madam Hu displayed more politeness, chatted with her and then bid her her farewell.
Old Mister Hu was also at home. He said puzzledly: “What a rare sight. Doesn’t her family look down on the rural household registration?”
Last time old Madam Hu wanted to match up with Hu Zi and Zhu Zhen Zhen. Old Madam Hu knew about it. According to old Mister Hu, Hu Zi was a good young man. If it works out, it won’t be too bad in the future.
However, old Madam Zhu disapprove and disdained Hu Zi’s rural household registration.
Why didn’t she dislike it now?
“Zhu Zhen Zhen is going to marry out. Her grandson is going to marry one back. Of course it is different.” Old Madam Hu replied.
If she married out, the capital city’s will become rural one. And when he marry one back, the rural’s will become capital city one.
“However, it’s due to seeing Hong Xia’s sister marrying a rich brother-in-law. She want to get linked to this family.” Old Madam Hu continued.
Everyone had been old neighbors for most of their lives. Who didn’t know another’s thoughts.
Old Mister Hu clicked his tongue, “What good calculation.”
Old Madam Hu was willing to help speak for them. It would be great if it works out. She could still get some benefits. And could be regarded as their matchmaker. Another connection.
If it doesn’t, it didn’t matter much. Anyway, it wasn’t her grandson getting rejected by others.
Afterward Mother Zhou sensed the two women’s attitude towards her improved. She didn’t think much about it.
Zhou Si Ni had been studying very hard recently. Because when school starts this year, she will attend night school with Gang Zi.
Initially, Zhou San Ni was going to be included. But she was pregnant now. So she definitely can’t go.
Zhou Si Ni’s foundation was relatively weak, so Lin Qing He didn’t arrange her to attend to night school after coming to the capital for so long. She had been studying by herself.
Zhou Er Ni was guiding her. Lin Qing He too.
Recently, she often went to hot springs. She felt that her body was different.
“This year, when night school starts, you can attend class.” Lin Qing He said as she looked through her homework after doing gymnastics.
Zhou Si Ni curled her lips. It was obvious she was delighted, “Aunt, can I reach my sister’s level?”
She felt her sister had become brilliant now. She can do everything.
“Study hard and you won’t be worse than your sister.” Lin Qing He stated.
Zhou Si Ni nodded earnestly. She must study hard. Only when she came to the capital did she know how developed the city was. One can’t keep up without studying hard. Even Cheng Yang and Cheng Yue graduated from high school!
She only reached third grade. Not enough to show.
Lin Qing He was pleased to see that she was working so hard. She would support her as long as she knew how to make progress in a proper way.
“We will recruit two more people this year.” Lin Qing He invited Ma Cheng Min over to their home and declared.
Ma Cheng Min was dumbfounded and asked, “Currently there are enough manpower?”
“This year I plan to let Hu Zi go out to set up a street stall by himself. Let him try to go it alone. That side lack of staffs, so I will recruit one more to keep as a substitute.” Lin Qing He explained.
Xu Sheng Qiang had started to set up stalls. How can she let Hu Zi lag behind him? Besides, Hu Zi had been brought over for some time. What should be taught was mostly taught. Now he had a match, it didn’t hurt to let him go out and make his way.
When he get married in the future, he’ll be a head of the family. He got to support the house. It was time to go out and gather experience.
She had brought these nephews and nieces over. She really didn’t intend to tie them down for the rest of their life. If they had the ability, they can go out and do it alone. They will receive support from her side. If they didn’t have the ability, then honestly settle down and watch the shop for her.
Ma Cheng Min nodded when he heard this.
“About your wife. Spend more with her during your free time. There’s still a week before work start. I will grant you three more days off. In total, ten days. You can accompany her back to her maternal home to relax.” Lin Qing He said.
