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