"Jingru, what are you doing here?"

"I'm doing laundry. Why are you back, cousin?"

Qin Huairu said with a smile: "I just miss you, and I just happened to have time today so I came back to see you."

"Really, cousin? Then don't stand here. Let's go home quickly. You can talk to me about interesting things in the city."

"Come on, let's go to my house first. I have some good news for you."

Qin Jingru was so excited that she quickly grabbed Qin Huairu's arm. "Sister, wait for me for a while, I'll pack my things and we'll go together."

After a while, Qin Huairu took Qin Jingru back home. Qin Huairu's father Qin Youjin saw Qin Huairu coming back from a distance, turned around and ran into the house.

"Old lady, quickly hide the eggs. I saw Huairu coming back."

"Ah? She's back?"

"Hey, stop asking. Hide the eggs first, or you'll waste a lot of them at noon."

"Oh, then go and hold her back."

Qin Youjin ran out quickly, and in a short while Qin Huairu had already reached the door of her house.

"Dad, I'm back."

"Huai Ru? Oh my dear daughter, how come you have time to come back and see daddy?"

Qin Huairu quickly handed the snacks and sausages she bought on the road to Qin Youjin.

"Dad, this is my gift to you and mom."

When Qin Youjin saw that Qin Huairu came back with a gift, he immediately smiled until his eyes narrowed into slits.

"Hey, Huairu, look at what you are doing? Your family is not well off these days, and what are you going to get back home?"

Qin Huairu was secretly complaining in her heart. After her husband passed away, she just went home to borrow some food, but her father not only refused to lend her any money, but also said that she was a hole that could never be filled.

If she didn't want to look embarrassing when she came back today, she wouldn't have bought anything for them.

Fortunately, the money she spent was all taken from Cui Dake's dirty clothes, so Qin Huairu felt that she didn't suffer any loss on this trip.

So she also cooperated and said, "Dad, as a child, it is my duty to respect you. By the way, where are my mom and my brother?"

"Old lady, come out and have a look. Huairu bought you a gift."

"Your brother and his friends have gone out to earn work points. I don't think they'll be back until the evening."

"Huai Ru, you've worked really hard these years, but this city does support people, and I see that you've hardly changed at all."

However, Qin Youjin kept saying polite words and had no intention of letting Qin Huairu in. Even Qin Jingru, who was standing next to him, noticed this abnormal phenomenon.

However, when Qin Jingru thought about her uncle's usual character, she didn't find it strange at all.

Qin Huairu also realized that her stingy father was definitely trying to delay time and hide something.

But she came back this time just to see them. After all, this was her hometown. If she came back empty-handed, it would be an embarrassment for Qin Huairu.

Now seeing that her father was still the same as before, Qin Huairu's face suddenly turned cold.

"Dad, you guys go ahead and do whatever you want. I came back to look for Jingru this time."

After Qin Huairu finished speaking, she didn't care about Qin Youjin's reaction, but turned around and followed Qin Jingru to go to their house.

Qin Youjin watched Qin Huairu turn around and leave. Instead of being polite, he thought that this would save one more person's food.

"Old man, I have already hidden the eggs. Where are the Huairu people?"

"gone."

"Why did she leave without coming in to take a look after returning home? This damn girl really didn't learn anything good after coming to the city.

Qin Youjin put the things in her hands. "Shut up, she may have something wrong, otherwise she would give us these gifts."

"It's better to leave now. At least we can save one more person's food at noon."

Mother Qin's mouth was watering as she looked at the sausages and pastries in her hands.

"Oh, so many good things, has this girl become rich?"

Qin Youjin said disdainfully: "Humph, if she really became rich, would she still have the nerve to bring these things back to show off? I think she is just afraid of people gossiping about her, so she wants to use these things to shut us up."

Qin's mother nodded in sudden realization, then took Qin Youjin and ran back home quickly.

Qin Huairu followed Qin Jingru to her second uncle's house. After she explained the purpose of her visit, Qin Laoer's family were all overjoyed.

Because there are seven children in their family, Qin Jingru is the third child, but this child has too high demands, so she has not married yet.

This situation is a headache for Qin Lao Er, who is very concerned about his reputation, but he can't force his third daughter to leave if she doesn't want to get married, right?

Now Qin Huairu agreed to help her find a man in the city, which really solved Qin Laoer's biggest problem.

However, Qin Laoer was not like his elder brother Qin Youjin, who would sell his daughter for money. Although he was happy, he still began to inquire cautiously.

"Huai Ru, I wonder what this family you want to introduce does?"

Qin Huairu said calmly: "Second Uncle, the man I introduced to Jingru is an employee of our factory cafeteria."

"There's an old saying that there's no cook who starves to death, but there's always meat in his family."

"Besides, there is only one elderly person in their family now, so my sister won't have to worry about him when she marries him."

When Qin Laoer heard the other party's good conditions, he began to wonder if the other party would be interested in their country girl Jingru.

"Huai Ru, I know you mean well, but you also know our family's situation. If they ask for a dowry, we can't afford it!"

Qin Huairu understood Qin Laoer's hidden meaning as soon as she heard it.

"Uncle, you think too much. They like capable girls like my sister."

"I have a good relationship with their family, so I brought this good news to you as soon as possible."

Qin Laoer finally felt relieved, but Qin Jingru next to him could no longer hold back.

"Sister, when are we going?"

Qin Huairu also knew that delay would lead to changes, so she deliberately said seriously: "It's better to do it sooner rather than later. Before I came out, several matchmakers came to my house to propose marriage."

Qin Lao Er quickly expressed his opinion. "Well, old lady, go and cook, and after dinner, let Jingru go with her sister."

"Jingru, go to the village office and get a letter of introduction. Just say you want to follow your sister to the city to see the world."

"Okay, Dad, I'll go right away."

Qin Jingru responded and ran out in a hurry, while Qin Huairu, looking at her silly sister's excited expression, had already thought about how much the bride price should be.

So that afternoon, after the two of them finished their meal, Qin Huairu took the enthusiastic Qin Jingru back to Sijiu City by car.

"Sister, this city is too big, isn't it?"

"Calm down, there's nothing special about the city except that it's big. Do you think you need to be so excited?"

"Sister, look at what you said. Haven't I ever been to the city?"

At this time, the two people happened to pass by a state-owned noodle restaurant. A breeze blew, and the aroma from the noodle restaurant reached Qin Jingru's nose.

"Sister, do you think the noodles in the noodle shop are delicious?"

How could Qin Huairu not see what she wanted to say? But this trip had already cost her three dollars, and she didn't want to spend any more money.

"You, stop imagining that. When the blind date is successful, you can even have roast duck, not to mention a bowl of noodles."

Qin Jingru hurriedly said, "Let's go quickly, don't go back too late or someone will snatch it away again."

Then the two of them immediately quickened their pace, and after walking for about twenty minutes, they finally arrived at Nanluoguxiang.

It was just time to get off work, and the fact that Qin Huairu brought back a little girl attracted a lot of people's attention.

Among them, Yan Jiefang, Zhao Hongqi and Liu Guangtian were the most concerned, because they had all reached the age to get married, but had never found a suitable blind date.

Besides, none of them are working, so no one would look up to them now.

Another person who noticed this was He Yuzhu, because he saw Qin Jingru with twin ponytails at a glance.

It is said that this woman almost married him in her previous life, but later Xu Damao interfered and snatched the silly woman away.

But He Yuzhu was also curious. Since he and Xu Damao were married, why did Qin Huairu go to so much trouble to get Qin Jingru back?
