Gu Ruoqing raised her chin and snorted. "Humph! This is the first time, so I won't argue with you. If it happens again, I'll teach you a lesson! "
"Yes, yes, yes. Qing Qing, don't be angry. There won't be a next time. Don't worry!"
Chen Honghua hurriedly coaxed Gu Ruoqing, afraid that she would anger her.
The news of Zhang Xiaohui marrying into the city was too well-known in the Qing River Brigade. Everyone was talking about it. In this day and age, the commoners yearned for a household register in the city. With a household register in the city, they would be provided with food and did not need to work in the fields. Even the factories would require a household register in the city to recruit workers. To the commoners, this was simply heaven.
Therefore, Zhang Xiaohui actually married into the city with a child when she was middle-aged. This was really unbelievable. In the eyes of Chen Honghua and Wang Qiuhua, Zhang Xiaohui was simply too capable.
Since Gu Ruoqing could follow them to the city, they wanted to do the same.
Chen Honghua did not even eat and brought Gu Ruoqing to her room. In the afternoon, Gu Ruoqing slept in Chen Honghua's room.
Chen Honghua sneaked out. Her mother, Wang Qiuhua, was cleaning up in the kitchen. Chen Xiaobao was afraid that he would disturb Gu Ruoqing, so Chen Ergui brought him out to play.
In the kitchen, Wang Qiuhua looked at the empty pot and sighed. Chen Honghua came over to take a look and advised, "Mother, are you distressed over the rice?"
Wang Qiuhua said, "How can I not feel heartache? Did you see how much she ate? It's enough for our Little Treasure to eat for a day. And those eggs, two whole eggs. She actually ate them all and didn't leave any for Little Treasure. No wonder Little Treasure is so angry. "
Chen Honghua said, "Mother, I know your heart aches, and so do I. But there's no other way. Think about it, are we going to stay in this village forever? Without a salary or a ticket, it was difficult to buy anything. What was Zhang Xiaohui? Even with the Zhang family's behavior, she could still marry into the city. "
"Gu Ruoqing used to live worse than me! The Zhang family doesn't care about her at all. The Gu family only dotes on Gu Qingyao. But look at Gu Ruoqing. She's now a city girl. When she marries in the future, she will definitely marry in the city. Mother, I can't accept this! "
Wang Qiuhua frowned. "But can we really do this?"
Chen Honghua said, "No matter whether it works or not, we have to try. Besides Gu Ruoqing, can we find anyone else?"
Wang Qiuhua immediately stopped talking. They were all farmers and had nothing. They didn't know anyone in the city.
Chen Honghua said, "Mother, I've always had a good relationship with Gu Ruoqing. Now that I've coaxed her and gotten along well with her, I'll ask her father to send me to work in the textile factory in the city. That way, I'll have a salary. Thirty to forty dollars a month! By then, I will have money and coupons to buy good things for you and Xiaobao. "
"Mother, look at me. I'm not bad looking. I can get married in two years. Only if I go to the city can I get our Xiao Bao to go to the city in the future. Otherwise, look at our Xiao Bao. He's so smart, but you want him to stay in the countryside and work in the fields for the rest of his life? Can you bear to do that? "
Of course he couldn't bear to!
Wang Qiuhua was completely convinced. Thinking of her precious son, she suddenly felt that what her daughter said was reasonable. If her daughter could marry into the county, then their family would have hope and Xiaobao would be successful in the future.
"Alright, let's do that. You have to coax this Gu Ruoqing well!"
"Yes!"
…
Gu Qingyao didn't know about all this for the time being, but she quickly guessed it.
