They do all the housework, inside and out.
At that time, my mother-in-law can just sit at home and enjoy her retirement.
An older woman pointed at the He family and said, "They are He Hongyang's sisters-in-law. Whoever marries them will be able to establish a connection with the He family."
"I heard that He Hongyang is doing very well at the factory and is also doing very well in our neighborhood. If he helps him, Liu's son will definitely benefit from it."
“Not only his son will benefit, but his whole family will benefit. For example, every month when the factory improves the food, they might be able to eat a few more meat buns.”
I never expected that an older woman would see things more clearly than I did.
Madam Jia nodded repeatedly: "Liu Haizhong is eager to show off and become an official. The last incident was a big blow to him. He probably wants to use He Hongyang to show off again this time."
"But they are all still very young. Do you think they would be willing?"
"Why wouldn't you want to? Don't forget that marrying a son of the Liu family means marrying into the city, something countless rural girls dream of."
190. The twin sisters angrily rebuked Liu Haizhong
An older woman looked at Qin Jingru and said, "In a few years, you should also introduce a potential partner to your relatives so that she can marry into the city."
Madam Jia said unhappily, "I will not introduce her to any potential partners. Who would marry someone as lazy and good-for-nothing as her?"
“You’re relatives after all, and she’s staying at your house now. If you can find her a good partner like He Hongyang, you’ll benefit from it too.”
Why didn't Jia Zhangshi think of this?
It is said that a woman's marriage is like a second reincarnation.
If Qin Jingru really marries into a good family, she might actually benefit from it.
It seems I need to treat her better from now on.
But among all the people in the courtyard house, who is the most suitable?
Logically speaking, He Hongyang should be the most suitable, but he is already married.
The only one left is Sha Zhu.
However, there was a significant age difference between him and Qin Jingru, and he wasn't particularly good-looking.
The youngest son of the Liu family and the youngest son of the Yan family are of suitable age.
However, she didn't like either of them.
They only know how to take advantage of others, how could they let others take advantage of them?
However, Qin Jingru will not grow up for another two years.
Let's focus on the excitement right now.
Wang Lili and Wang Pingping did not answer her question.
Instead, he went about washing his own clothes.
The second aunt thought they were embarrassed.
After all, girls would feel embarrassed about this kind of thing.
He simply took out a photo of his son from his pocket.
“We have three sons. This is my eldest son, Liu Guangqi, and this is my second son, Liu Guangtian.”
“My eldest son works in the factory office of the steel rolling mill and earns more than 20 yuan a month. My second son is still in school, but he has excellent grades and will definitely be able to find a good job in the future.”
“Young men as outstanding as them have many girls pursuing them, whether in the factory or at school.”
"I know you're still young, but you have to grab a good man right away, otherwise in a few years, all the good men will be snatched up, and it will be too late for you to regret it then."
“Our Liu family has a house in a courtyard house and jobs in a factory. As long as you marry into our family, you’re guaranteed to have plenty to eat and drink.”
“My husband, Lao Liu, is a senior worker at the factory. If you don’t believe me, ask your brother-in-law. He’s very well-known in the factory. He found my eldest son a job, and he can also find a good job for my second son in the future.”
“You are from the countryside after all. All girls from the countryside are eager to find a partner in the city. Just like your sister, her life changed dramatically after she married He Hongyang.”
“Our Liu family is not only well-off, but also kind-hearted. Seeing that you two girls have had a tough life in the countryside since you were little, we wanted to help you.”

She kept rambling on and on about what she was saying.
I'll get a picture of her son later.
They'll start talking about how well-off their family is.
Then she started talking about how hard their lives were in the countryside.
They even brought up their sister and brother-in-law.
Who says their lives in the countryside are hard?
The clothes that the second aunt was wearing were so worn that you could hardly tell their original color from them; she wasn't even dressed as well as the others.
Looking at her pale face, she must be malnourished and probably doesn't eat as well as they do.
Besides, they're still young and not in a hurry to find a partner.
Moreover, even when looking for a partner, one must have one's mother and older sister/brother-in-law oversee the process.
It's not her place to be an outsider and make irresponsible remarks.
“We’re not in a rush to find a partner, so please stop talking about it here.”
“We came to the city to see our mother and sister, not to find a partner.”
"Hey, Auntie, are you a matchmaker? Why are you saying all this to us right away?"
It seems they are still young.
I've hinted at it so much, but they still don't understand.
Liu Haizhong winked at his wife.
The second aunt immediately understood.
I might as well be upfront with them.
“I’m not a matchmaker. You didn’t see that I’m holding a picture of my son. My son is very handsome, and I just wanted to introduce him to you.”

“We have three sons. The eldest son is a few years older than you, and the second son is about the same age as you. You can all meet them when they come back.”
"Which of my sons takes a liking to you will be able to marry into our Liu family in the future."
“If both of my sons take a liking to you, you two sisters can both marry into our Liu family.”
"This is something you could never have dreamed of. When your mom and sister come back, tell them, and they'll be incredibly happy."
“You two girls are really lucky. It just so happens that we have two sons, and our Liu family took pity on you. Otherwise, where would you find such a good family to marry into?”
Liu Haizhong walked over with a smile.
“My husband and I are the most reasonable people, and our Liu family is the most understanding. If you marry into our family, you will enjoy a life of happiness.”
"You're lucky to have met us, otherwise you'd probably be stuck in the countryside your whole lives."
“My sons are among the best in the courtyard, and the way our Liu family educates our children is also among the best in the whole courtyard.”
"We'll settle things first, and when you've grown up in a few years, we'll arrange your marriages. Then you two sisters will both have a place to settle down, going from sisters to sisters-in-law, and living in the same house."
“We made it possible for you sisters to be together. No other family could be as understanding as we are.”
That couple really knows how to pat themselves on the back.
Even Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru couldn't stand it anymore.
They were the ones who liked these two girls and wanted to introduce them to their son.
But how come they say it, it becomes about a pitiful family.
It was as if the Wang family had some extraordinary good fortune in their ancestral graves that allowed them to have the opportunity to marry into the Liu family.
With their looks alone, neither of them would be a bad match for the other.
Why did you have to marry into the Liu family?
Besides, they are He Hongyang's sister-in-law. With He Hongyang's abilities, he can find any kind of family for his sister-in-law.
She's only a teenager, she's not in a hurry to find a partner. They just want to take her for themselves because she's pretty.
Qin Jingru couldn't stand it and said, "They immediately started talking about how great their family is, while criticizing Brother He's two sisters-in-law as being terrible. If they're so bad, why did they introduce them to their son?"
Qin Huairu said, "We all live in the same courtyard, so everyone knows each other. The Liu family is far inferior to the He family. I think he not only wants to find a partner for his son, but also wants to curry favor with Brother He."
"He wanted to use his sister-in-law to establish a kinship with the He family."
"Sis, should we tell them right away? We can't let them fall for it."
"It's not even a done deal yet, and the Liu family is already in such a hurry. I don't think the two of them will agree."
“You’re right. If it were me, I would never marry into the Liu family. I’ve heard that Liu Haizhong is notorious for beating his sons. Do you think he would beat his daughter-in-law too if I married into their family?”
"The reason they are in such a hurry to talk to these two sisters now is probably because they are afraid that their mother and sister will expose their family when they come back. They want to make a good impression by saying how good their family is."
"These two are really good at scheming. They want to get all the benefits for themselves, but little do they know that the other party will never agree to it."
Jia Zhangshi and the old woman, however, had a different idea from what they thought.
The two of them watched the scene unfold as if it were a spectacle.
In their view, if the two rural girls could marry into the Liu family and enjoy the life of city dwellers, that would be something they couldn't ask for!
The two sisters remained silent.
They hurriedly followed and crowded around.
"Why aren't you saying anything? Are you embarrassed? Then nod or shake your head. Nod if you agree, shake your head if you disagree."
"As long as you agree, tell your mother and sister when you get back, and the matter will be settled. We neighbors will be waiting to receive your wedding candy."
"It would be great to marry into a courtyard house. Not only would you two sisters have company, but your older sister would also have company. If all three of you sisters married into a courtyard house, wouldn't your mother be overjoyed?"
Wang Lili and Wang Pingping were both stunned.
Are these my brother's neighbors?
They don't even look as good as rural women from the countryside.
He tries to introduce people to potential partners as soon as they meet.
He kept praising his own family and how outstanding his son was.
If a rural girl marries into their family, it's considered a sign of marrying into a higher social class.
Since their son is so good, and their family is so good, why not find a girl from the city who is a good match for them? Why bother saying these useless things to them?
They didn't say a word.
These people, however, kept chattering on and on.
Not only women did this, but men followed suit as well.
Not only the Liu family, but also members of the Jia and Yi families came over.
Are they just bored and have nothing better to do?
