"Thank you, Village Chief. I will definitely work hard in the future," Chen Shuying expressed gratefully. 0
"There's no need to thank me. I just feel that it's not easy for a woman like you to raise a child, so I made an exception to recommend you to work at the Textile Factory. You must not let everyone down," the Village Chief said earnestly. 0
"I will, Village Chief," Chen Shuying nodded vigorously. 0
"Thank you, Grandpa Village Chief. You are the best Grandpa Village Chief," Xiao Liang also said obediently. 0
"Haha, Xiao Liang is really good," the Village Chief laughed and patted Xiao Liang's head. 0
Upon hearing the Village Chief's words, the people around began to ponder about arranging a marriage for Chen Shuying again. 0
Qian Baoli saw that Chen Shuying's job at the Textile Factory was confirmed. Although she felt somewhat dissatisfied, she said nothing since it had nothing to do with her. 0
Her purpose for coming here was Wang Changgui, and the benefits Wang Changgui could bring her were far greater than those of a female worker at the Textile Factory. 0
Zhang Xiaoxiao and Zhao Guangcai were nearby enjoying the gossip. 0
"Guangcai, you said Qian Baoli is quite beautiful and comes from the city. Why would she be interested in Wang Changgui?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked curiously. 0
"I don't know," Zhao Guangcai shook his head. 0
"I feel like Qian Baoli has another motive for being with Wang Changgui," Zhang Xiaoxiao analyzed. 0
"Oh?" Zhao Guangcai raised an eyebrow. 0
"Women's intuition," Zhang Xiaoxiao winked. 0
"Hehe, women's intuition is really impressive," Zhao Guangcai chuckled lightly. 0
"That's right," Zhang Xiaoxiao said proudly. 0
[Ding dong, a task has arrived.] 0
"Huh? What task?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked in confusion. 0
[From now on, daily tasks will be randomly assigned, and system points earned will increase.] 0
"Oh, so what is my current task?" 0
[You need to find out why Qian Baoli is with Wang Changgui.] 0
"What? Why?" Zhang Xiaoxiao exclaimed in shock. 0
[No reason, it's just a task.] 0
"Alright then," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded helplessly. 0
 
 
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong?" Zhao Guangcai asked worriedly when he saw Zhang Xiaoxiao lost in thought. 0
"Nothing, Guangcai. I'm going out for a bit. Wait for me here," Zhang Xiaoxiao said before turning to leave. 0
Seeing that the situation was mostly resolved, the village chief signaled for everyone to disperse. 0
Chen Shuying took Xiao Liang and left, while the others, seeing there was no more excitement to watch, returned to their homes. 0
Although Zhao Guangcai and Zhang Xiaoxiao planned to leave, Zhang Xiaoxiao was curious about Qian Baoli and Wang Changgui's situation, so she decided to stay and observe further. 0
"Uncle and Auntie, can I talk to Brother Changgui alone?" Qian Baoli asked. 0
"Sure, you two chat," Granny Wang said with a smile. 0
Granny Wang's expression was quite ambiguous, as if she misunderstood what Qian Baoli and Wang Changgui wanted to discuss privately. 0
Seeing Granny Wang's expression, Zhang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but shiver; it was too frightening. 0
Qian Baoli, however, didn't care about Granny Wang's expression; her goal was achieved as long as Wang Changgui was willing to marry her. 0
"Uncle and Auntie, we'll go inside now," Qian Baoli said. 0
"Okay, you can go in," Granny Wang replied with a smile. 0
Then Qian Baoli and Wang Changgui entered the house. 0
After they went inside, Granny Wang returned to rest. 0
Zhang Xiaoxiao and Zhao Guangcai stayed behind, wanting to see what Qian Baoli and Wang Changgui were going to talk about. 0
"Guangcai, what do you think Qian Baoli wants with Wang Changgui?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked curiously. 0
"I don't know," Zhao Guangcai shook his head. 0
"I have a feeling it's definitely not something good," Zhang Xiaoxiao speculated. 0
"Maybe," Zhao Guangcai replied lightly. 0
 
Inside the house. 0
"Baoli, what did you want to talk about?" Wang Changgui asked eagerly. 0
"Brother Changgui, I'm a bit nervous," Qian Baoli said shyly, looking down. 0
"Nervous? Why are you nervous?" Wang Changgui asked in confusion. 0
"My parents are coming back today, and I want to introduce you to them," Qian Baoli said hesitantly. 0
"Ah? Meeting the parents today?" Wang Changgui exclaimed in surprise. 0
"Yes, Brother Changgui, are you not ready?" Qian Baoli asked. 0
 
 
"I... I'm not ready yet," Wang Changgui stammered. 0
 
"Brother Changgui, you’re not having second thoughts, are you?" Qian Baoli asked with wide eyes, feeling wronged. 0
 
"No, I’m not having second thoughts. I’m just a little nervous," Wang Changgui hurriedly explained. 0
 
"Brother Changgui, you don’t need to be nervous. My parents are very kind," Qian Baoli comforted him. 0
 
"Yeah, I’ll try to control my emotions," Wang Changgui said, taking a deep breath. 0
 
"Brother Changgui, you’re so nice," Qian Baoli said sweetly as she nestled in Wang Changgui's arms. 0
 
"Baoli, don’t worry. I will make you happy," Wang Changgui promised. 0
 
"Yes, I believe you," Qian Baoli nodded. 0
 
Outside the house. 0
 
"Guangcai, why aren’t they coming out yet?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked anxiously. 0
 
"I don’t know," Zhao Guangcai shook his head. 0
 
"What is Qian Baoli really up to?" Zhang Xiaoxiao frowned. 0
 
"No matter what she’s planning, it has nothing to do with us," Zhao Guangcai replied calmly. 0
 
"True," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded. 0
 
"Alright, let’s go back," Zhao Guangcai said. 0
 
"Okay," Zhang Xiaoxiao agreed as they held hands and walked home. 0
 
"Guangcai, let’s have a child," Zhang Xiaoxiao suddenly said. 0
 
"Why the sudden desire for a child?" Zhao Guangcai asked in confusion. 0
 
"I feel like we’re not getting any younger. It’s time to have a child," Zhang Xiaoxiao explained. 0
 
"Alright, I’ll go along with whatever you want," Zhao Guangcai said indulgently. 0
 
"Guangcai, thank you," Zhang Xiaoxiao said, touched. 0
 
"Silly girl, there’s no need to be polite with me," Zhao Guangcai laughed. 0
 
"Hehe," Zhang Xiaoxiao giggled shyly. 0
