Chapter 75: Chapter 075 Can you help big brother find a job?

Xu Qinghu recounted what had just occurred at Xu Qinghe’s house and looked towards Zhao Juxiang, asking, "Second sister-in-law, now that my eldest brother and sister-in-law refuse to acknowledge this marriage, what can I do? Didn’t you say that once this matter is known by all, even for the sake of Nianhua’s reputation, my brother and sister-in-law would have to accept it?"

"You mean the son from the Yue Family who lost two wives and even beats people when he’s drunk?" Zhao Juxiang’s gaze seemed to convey that this was a tough subject.

She had thought that although the man was older and had some flaws, she hadn’t expected that he was actually...

"That’s all false, in fact, it was just his two wives being unreasonable and themselves frail. If it were Nianhua, he would undoubtedly cherish and care for her in the palm of his hand," explained Xu Qinghu.

However, anyone slightly intelligent knew that these were just excuses, and the most important thing was that Xu Qinghu was reluctant to part with the matchmaker’s fee.

Considering someone who could afford a bride price of five hundred yuan, and also bring a lot, that matchmaker’s fee must have been substantial.

"Second sister-in-law, you need to think of a solution quickly. If this marriage is called off, I won’t know how to explain it to the Yue Family," Xu Qinghu was a bit anxious. If the marriage fell through, could Fu Song still work properly in the brick factory?

Zhao Juxiang pondered for a long while, then whispered a few words into Xu Qinghu’s ear, and Xu Qinghu’s eyes instantly lit up.

"Second sister-in-law, your mind really works wonders." Xu Qinghu smiled at Zhao Juxiang, noticeably more relaxed than before. Anxious to give an answer to the Yue Family, and knowing her parents were resting, she didn’t go in to see them, and simply left.

Liu Sanmei had been waiting for Xu Qinghu to enter the house, intending to reprimand her severely for the trouble she caused.

But, after waiting left and right, Liu Sanmei couldn’t get Xu Qinghu to come inside. When she asked Zhao Juxiang about it and knew that Xu Qinghu had already left, Liu Sanmei was so angry she didn’t know what to do. She looked fiercely at Zhao Juxiang and asked, "Does this have anything to do with you?"

"No." Zhao Juxiang replied quickly, without a hint of hesitation. She added, "I even advised Qinghu earlier, but sadly, Qinghu thought this marriage proposal was excellent."

At the word "excellent", Zhao Juxiang’s tone conveyed that it was hard to express everything.

"Hmph."

Liu Sanmei snorted coldly, "It better not have."

Xu Qinghe nagged that Ji Ying and the others should not go anywhere and just stay at home. If anything occurred, they were just to shout, and they would be chopping wood on the back mountain.

"Come on, it’s broad daylight, what could happen?"

Ji Ying was extremely relieved by Xu Qinghe’s unwavering protection of her daughter this time.

Once Xu Qinghe and his son went to the back mountain to chop wood, Ji Ying’s brows furrowed tightly. She was worried about both her daughter and her son.

Although the cancellation of the engagement didn’t directly involve them, such an incident raised concerns. What if someone looked down on their daughter because of this?

And their son, Xu Nianji, whose marriage to the Zhou Family had already been delayed for a year. With this incident now, he definitely couldn’t continue working at the brick factory. Having offended the Yue Family, where could he find a job that would pay thirty yuan a month?

What would the Zhou Family do if they knew about this?

Ji Ying’s mind was in chaos, and then she thought of her daughter making mung bean jelly. If it could be just like that, no, even if it could just bring in thirty yuan a month, that could alleviate the Xu Family’s predicament.

"Big brother, about the brick factory..." Xu Nianhua just started.

They definitely couldn’t go back to the brick factory.

Xu Nianji knew it clearly. He said, "I won’t go to the brick factory anymore. Little sister, you’re the smartest, can you help your brother find some work?"
