Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Qin Jingru's face changed. Did Qin Huairu mean to tell her parents about her loss of virginity?
How could this be possible? If her father knew about her, he would definitely break her legs.
"Sister, please stop joking with me. Can we let our parents know about this?"

Qin Jingru looked at her cousin with a wry smile. Whether she would be beaten or not depended entirely on her cousin's thoughts. She might even deny her daughter!

"Are you scared now? What were you doing before? Why didn't you think of this when you and Liu Guangtian were touring the capital? It's too late!"

Qin Huairu just wanted to scare Qin Jingru and let her know her father's interests were at stake here, so that she wouldn't be so heartless all day long. If the He family didn't help this time, judging from the Liu family's attitude, they might not acknowledge it!

"Sister, please, don't let my dad know about this, otherwise it will be terrible!"

Qin Jingru shook Qin Huairu's arm in a flattering manner. If she didn't want to be beaten, she had to stand at attention. This was a principle she understood clearly. Didn't she want fame?
"Remember this lesson. Next time a problem like this occurs, I will never hide it for you!"

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes in annoyance. She was reminding her not to show off after marrying into the Liu family, otherwise, there would be many people who could deal with her!
"I know, sister!"

The next day, Qin Huai took Qin Jingru back to the countryside. People in this era were still very reserved about relationships, especially in the countryside. Even if they were in a free love relationship, they still had to ask a matchmaker for details.
Most families are formed through matchmakers, following this routine. In fact, many couples have never even met each other before getting married.

Free love has been talked about for a long time, but very few people actually get married because of free love, of course, except for the so-called intellectuals;
The rate of free love and marriage among this group of people is very high, but the majority of them are illiterate. How many educated people are there?
"Uncle, Jingru is dating the second son of the Liu family in our compound. The Liu family is afraid that there will be problems, so they asked me to ask for your opinion!"

Qin Huairu was not in a hurry to go back to her parents' home. She wanted to finish what she needed to do first!
“Huai Ru, what kind of family is this Liu family? Tell your second uncle about the situation. Logically speaking, it’s a good thing for Jing to marry into the city like you;
However, I still have to ask about the character of my husband’s family. If they are not good families, I would rather find a country girl here than suffer in the city!"

Uncle Qin was silent for a moment and then expressed his own opinion. Didn't Huairu get divorced when she married into the city? If it weren't for her job, wouldn't her elder brother and sister-in-law have been gossiped by the villagers?
"Uncle, the Liu family is in a relatively good situation. Liu Haizhong is a seventh-level worker in the factory and is currently the leader of the workers' picket team. Liu Guangtian is a temporary worker and it will only take time for him to be promoted to a regular employee.
With Liu Haizhong here, it's not a big problem to arrange a job for Jingru. If not, the Liu family might object to their son marrying Jingru!"

Qin Huairu knew what her second uncle meant, and knew that he still had concerns in his heart, especially since she was divorced and raising a child, which was considered very difficult in the eyes of others!
"In that case, I agree!"

Uncle Qin knew what his daughter was thinking, and although he was against it, his daughter had made up her mind, so it was useless for him to persuade her, so he could only go along with her.
In his mind, marriage should be of equal status, but these two women are ambitious and want to be city people. This is not wrong, he used to think so, but look at Huairu;
It was a sensation in the area at the time, but in the end, it ended in divorce. He didn't want his daughter to be as lonely as Huairu!
"Uncle, the betrothal gift is 15 yuan. If you have any other requests, just let me know. I will bring them back. Even if the Liu family disagrees, they will have to agree!"

Uncle Qin looked at his niece in surprise. Where did she get the confidence from? Huairu was just an ordinary worker, but she was a senior worker and team leader. Although he didn't know what kind of official a team leader was, he must be very powerful. Just look at how much authority a small production team leader has. Not to mention the team leader of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, which is a big factory!
"In that case, use a sewing machine. Before you find a job, you can still do some work to supplement the family income. In a family like that, if you have no value, you have no status.
Jingru, I hope you will be filial to your parents-in-law after you get married, and be diligent in housework, don't be lazy, city people are more particular, unlike us;

Also, you can’t be willful or petty. Your parents-in-law are not like your parents. It’s not too late to do it now. We just don’t agree!”

Uncle Qin was indeed worried. No one knew his daughter better than him. To put it bluntly, she was spoiled. Your parents could spoil you, but could your in-laws spoil you?

"Got it, Dad!"

It was impossible to refuse. It was so hard to make her dream come true. How could she refuse? As for her father's instructions, she also remembered them. She knew that the Liu family was not an ordinary family, so she had to endure it!

Uncle Qin nodded, although he was a little uneasy, but ever since Huairu married into the city, his sister-in-law had been talking about the big girl every day, and she liked to flatter the powerful and bully the weak. He didn't say anything, but he was unhappy in his heart.

They are all girls from the Qin family. Huairu is pretty, and our own girls are not bad either. Your daughter can marry into the city, but my daughter can't?
However, after Qin Huairu's divorce, he had a more intuitive view of the coldness of the city people. How could rural people have such a thing as divorce? Look at the city people, they want to divorce when they have a good partner. Wouldn't his daughter suffer if she went there?
Also, in the past two years, Huairu has returned to her parents' home with a lot of things, and her status in the village has improved a lot, but at the beginning? She came back empty-handed and took away a lot of things!
After the matter was settled, Qin Huairu went to her mother's house for a visit and then returned home satisfied. She was quite willing. Her second uncle was a reasonable person and had no other requirements except for the sewing machine.

As for the reason for wanting a sewing machine, she could guess a little bit. When she married into the Jia family, she had a sewing machine, so her cousin couldn't be any worse off, right?
They are all marrying in the city, so even if they can't surpass her, they have to be at least as good as her. Otherwise, the villagers will not speak well of her. This is human nature!
After Liu Haizhong learned about the Qin family's request, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. It was just a sewing machine, and it would definitely be possible with the Liu family's conditions.

This request is understandable. The two girls married into the same compound, so they have to compare with each other. They can't be worse than the Jia family, right?
Besides, the sewing machine ticket awarded by the factory has not been used yet, so it is a good opportunity to use it. It is just sitting there anyway. Besides, the sewing machine is not taken away, so it is equivalent to buying a big item, so the Liu family will not suffer any loss, right? It is still very reasonable!

Liu Haizhong looked at his second son and wished he could beat the bastard to death. He found a country girl and had no foresight at all. Is this his son?

"Guangtian, it's settled. Find some time to buy the sewing machine. This is a gift from your mother and I. We'll find a job for Qin Jingru when we have the chance. From now on, we won't be involved in your affairs. It's up to you whether you can live a good life or a bad one!" (End of this chapter)
