Chapter 314: Chapter 314: The Conditions Aren’t Bad
"That one? That one wouldn’t do, would it? The taller one is better, not skinny, looks strong, she’ll surely be able to give birth to a pair in three years!"
"Mom, who’s getting a wife, you or me?" Chiang Baohe got annoyed, "I set my sights on the shorter one, what about it? Is that settled?"
Seeing him about to lose his temper again, Ho Laidi dared not provoke him and quickly responded, "Settled, settled."
Chiang Songtao glanced at the two girls, frowned, and said nothing.
"Then go and ask now." Chiang Baohe was still staring intently at Zou Xiaoling.
His gaze, almost physical in its intensity, had already been noticed by Zou Xiaoling. She looked over, met Chiang Baohe’s gaze, shivered inside, and felt extremely frightened. She hurriedly tugged at Yu Chunyu’s sleeve.
"Chunyu, let’s hurry and leave, there’s nothing much to see here."
Yu Chunyu’s mind was completely absorbed in looking for Meng Xinian and had not noticed other people’s stares.
"Let’s walk over there." Yu Chunyu just caught sight of a row of private houses behind the hospital and wanted to pull her over in that direction.
Zou Xiaoling couldn’t wait to leave quickly, nodding her head hastily.
"Mom! Go quickly!" Seeing her about to leave, Chiang Baohe quickly pushed Ho Laidi.
Ho Laidi had no choice but to quickly follow after her.
"Girl, hey, girl, wait!"
Zou Xiaoling didn’t want to stop, but Yu Chunyu, who had heard someone calling, stopped and pulled her to a halt.
Turning around and seeing a countrywoman in her fifties, Yu Chunyu frowned slightly and asked, "Ma’am, are you calling us?"
"I’m looking for her!" Ho Laidi immediately pointed at Zou Xiaoling, her tone not the least bit courteous.
Yu Chunyu looked at Zou Xiaoling with a mix of confusion and nervousness and whispered, "Xiaoling, could it be someone from your hometown looking for you?"
If it weren’t for the arranged match she was trying to escape from back home, Zou Xiaoling wouldn’t have left her hometown to serve as a substitute teacher in Peace Town.
Yu Chunyu also knew about her situation and, seeing the uncouth Ho Laidi, assumed it was Zou Xiaoling’s malicious mother-in-law who had come.
Zou Xiaoling’s face turned pale, but she still hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, I don’t know her!"
"You don’t know me now, but isn’t that why I’m here, to get to know you?" Ho Laidi sized her up and down with a provocative look, still somewhat disdainful. The girl had a face that was quite alright, but such a small body, hardly any meat on her buttocks, who knows if she’d be able to bear children.
In her opinion, it was the taller girl next to her who looked capable of bearing children.
"Ma’am, why are you looking for her?" Yu Chunyu said, feeling uncomfortable under that gaze and pulled Zou Xiaoling behind her.
Zou Xiaoling felt grateful to her.
She thought Yu Chunyu was quite a decent person for looking out for her in such a situation.
"I just want to ask her name, her age, where she lives!" Ho Laidi said rudely.
Yu Chunyu’s eyes widened, "Why do you want to know all that?"
"Oh right, I also wanted to ask if she’s got a husband! My son has taken a shine to her."
Yu Chunyu was dumbstruck, having never imagined someone would be matchmaking in the street like this, and for a moment she was at a loss for words. Zou Xiaoling felt even more anxious. Her son, couldn’t be that man she had seen earlier sitting on the bicycle, with an eye patch and a plaster over his nose, could he?
But that man didn’t look young at all!
The more she thought, the more scared she became, pulling Yu Chunyu, ready to leave.
"Hey, what’s the matter with asking? If she’s got no husband, can’t we talk about it? My son’s a top-notch worker, we’re from the Chiang family with high class status, poor peasants, our house has quite a few shiny big rooms! The conditions are not bad!" Ho Laidi blurted out.
