“Hurry up, I’m very busy, forget it if you don’t tell me.” Ye Ning really didn’t have time to talk to them.
The step-grandma suppressed her anger and said with a smile: “It’s just that your mother is gone. Your father has to support you three siblings by himself. You all have to go to school. The annual tuition fees are high for both young and old. Your father has a heavy burden. He had no choice but to leave his hometown to work. Otherwise, who would be willing to leave their hometown?”
“If you have something to do, just tell me.” Ye Ning listened impatiently.
“Isn’t that what I’m saying, the cost of going to college will be more, right? And Ye Lan also has to go to high school, and the cost is more than it is now, so how much pressure is on your dad? No, I have a relative in the town, she had a friend who is looking for a daughter-in-law. She said she wanted to find a country girl who had studied well. When she told me, I thought of you. The family conditions are good, both parents are cadres, his sister is married into a cadre family in the city. They only have one son in the family, and everything from now on would belong to him. It was because the child had been pampered since childhood that the family wanted to find a country wife who could take care of him, but also didn’t want her to be too bad. So they wanted a high school student, to say that doesn’t it suit you.”
People who heard the commotion gathered around, and after hearing what step-grandma said, they all whispered. Some suspected that step-grandma had ulterior motives, while others said that the condition was true. Well, maybe it was for the bride price.
Ye Ning never expected that she would be told that her partner had arrived. She was only nineteen, she was a child herself, and she didn’t want to get married at all. What’s more, the people in the old house said they wanted to get her married, how could they be so kind?
“I’m going to college and don’t have time to talk about a partner. Thank you for your kindness.” Ye Ning refused.
“Listen to me. I also told them that you are going to college and you can’t get married now. Guess what? They said you just go to college. As long as you agree to get engaged, they will pay for your tuition fees, and living expenses, and wait until you graduate before getting married. They also said that after you graduate, they will find connections to let you work in a good company in the city. Don’t worry if a child is born, they will take care of it. If you marry a sensible family, in the past, it would have said that you had fallen into a lucky nest.” Step-grandma said with an envious look.
“Why don’t you introduce her to Sister Fenfen when she’s so good? She’s one year older than me. My ex-aunt is so anxious to let her into the blessing nest. I don’t have this luck.” Ye Ning chuckled.
Did her step-grandma think she was stupid? She never mentioned her relative’s son’s appearance or education. There was something 100% wrong.
“It’s not that Fenfen has never been to school. She only has a primary school diploma, and people look down upon her.”
The eldest aunt looked pitiful, “It would be better to study. If I had known, I would have let Fenfen go to high school.”
“No, there are really such good people. You must have dealt with Sister Fenfen in a different way. Why did you think of me? Is there something wrong with that son?” Ye Ning saw her aunt’s face change slightly, and she suddenly understood everything, “Tell me, is he physically disabled? Or does he have a bad brain?” Otherwise, why would such a good family want a country girl?
The step-grandma smiled awkwardly, “I’ve seen the child, and he looks really good. He is tall with good hands and feet. But when he was a child, he had a fever that burned out his brain, but if you can take care of him, he will….”
“That’s what I was thinking, why are you so kind? It turns out that he is a fool.”
Ye Ning sneered, “It’s true that if you don’t kiss, you don’t kiss. I can’t bear such a blessing.”
“You, you said that. What are you talking about?” Step-grandma pointed at Ye Ning angrily, “What about kissing or not? If I weren’t your grandma, how could I miss you? There are many people who would.”
“I’m talking human words, it’s true. Thank you for thinking of me. What’s the matter, you want to say hello to me while my dad is not at home and seize the bride gift? You can also build a relationship along the way, right? What are you dreaming about every day? Where is my grandma? My grandma died long ago. Grandpa is almost as good as dead, otherwise can he let you, an old witch, act like a monster?” Ye Ning glanced at the approaching old man Ye, and took a look at him.
Anyway, Ye Lan had graduated, and Xiao Gu’s classes were pretty much the same. If she couldn’t do it, he could take a break early. She was not afraid of delaying his studies in the first grade. She really had nothing to worry about now, and she would break up if she wanted to. Anyway, she didn’t plan to stay in the village for a long time, so she was not afraid of ghosts. People nearby were whispering, most of them criticized the step-grandma, and some said Ye Ning spoke too harshly.
“It’s not the kiss but also your grandma, how can you say that to an elder?” Old man Ye really didn’t know that step-grandma told Ye Ning about the kiss, but that’s not what they were talking about now, they had to suppress the matter first.
“Haha, I won’t marry to a fool. Grandpa, do you think my grandma would do such a thing if she were still alive? Our two families have separated a long time ago. We made an agreement when grandmother was here. From now on, it’s your turn. First you wanted to occupy my family’s farmland, and now you’re paying attention to us two sisters. What’s wrong? You’re bullying us, right?”
Ye Ning took out a grass knife from the basket on her back, “If you make me angry, I’ll do it first. I’ll kill you and then commit suicide. If you don’t believe me, try it.”
