Gu Qingyao smiled!

In these times, everyone’s deepest desire was to move to the city. The villagers seldom had any opportunity to visit the city. Even if someone married and moved to the city, their account would remain in the village. If they didn’t work in the village to earn labor points, they wouldn’t receive food rations.

So after moving to the city, they would have to live on their husbands’ salaries.

At that time, life was hard for everyone because resources were so scarce. So compared to later times, very few girls with village accounts managed to marry and move to the city.

Many dreamt of moving to the city.

Sun Mei was so arrogant that, of course, she also wanted to marry and move to the city. But in the end, no one from the Southern Lake Brigade or the Qing River Brigade had married and moved to the city. The only one was Zhang Xiaohui, who had created a stir and then came to a bad end almost immediately.

At this time, Gu Qingyao had gone to the city. Although she was visiting relatives instead of marrying, everyone wished they had her opportunity.

Furthermore, it had happened just after Gu Ruoqing’s misfortune, so it was no wonder that Sun Mei was infuriated.

Gu Fangting’s eyes shone brightly as she saw the commotion. “Older Sister, there’s so much activity going on there! Let’s go and take a look!”

Gu Qingyao cocked her head on one side. “I also want to go! I’m just afraid that the Sun family will vent their anger on us, and that will be bad for us. Your brother-in-law is over there. He will certainly come and give us the news after a while.”

“Hee..” Gu Fangting giggled. She stood next to Gu Qingyao and smiled slyly as she clasped Gu Qingyao’s arm.

“That’s right, that’s right, Brother-in-law is over there. He certainly knows you’re interested in what is going on, so he’ll come over and tell you what you want to know.”

Gu Qingyao raised her brows at Gu Fangting’s tone. “You don’t dislike Mo Beihan? In fact, you seem to be quite fond of him?”

Ever since the four children had arrived in the Mo family, and Mo Beihan had decided to support six children before they were married, the entire family had treated Mo Beihan more coolly, although they had not said anything out loud.

Gu Fangting’s attitude seemed to indicate she had a good impression of Mo Beihan!

Gu Fangting naturally understood what her older cousin was implying, so she said with a smile, “Although Brother-in-law has heavy burdens to bear at home, I feel that he can’t bear to allow you to suffer.

“I’m not very certain. It’s just a feeling that I have. It appears that Brother-in-law’s burden is too great, and you’ll have to work harder than other wives once you get married and have to take care of so many children..historical

“But what I see is, even though Brother-in-law has such heavy burdens, he has given you much more than all those people without any burdens even before you’re married. Life is hard now, and many families are finding it hard to survive. Look at those who are engaged or married. What has their groom given them?

“I heard the older cousins say that Brother-in-law has never stopped giving you pocket money. Every new year or on every special occasion, he’d happily buy you new clothes or presents. He sends so many parcels of grain, meat, vegetables and snacks to you. Look at the other girls. It’s considered pretty well if the groom gives their families a few kilograms of grain. They can’t compare to Brother-in-law at all.

“So although Brother-in-law is raising so many children, he can continue to give you a good life. That shows his talent. Brother-in-law will certainly be a very capable man in the future!”

Gu Qingyao was rather shocked. She had not expected Gu Fangting to say such things.

She was just a teenager, but she had so much insight!

“Wow! I didn’t realize that a young girl like you knew so much!”
