Chapter 1380 Broken Engagement 29
"And you, Sister Cao, your brother is the apple of your parents' eyes. They gave birth to five daughters before they had such a precious child. I heard that he is already in his twenties, but he has never earned a single work point. He orders his parents around at home, and he wants two eggs a day and meat twice a month. If he doesn't get it, he throws a tantrum and swears and beats people. I dare not marry such a young master. I can't afford to support him."
"Aunt Hu, your nephew is already married for the second time, how dare you brag about him in front of me? I am a virgin girl, pretty, capable, my only brother is a regular worker, and my family has no burden. With such good conditions, I shouldn't marry an old man who is married for the second time and has two children."
Yuanchun left the women who wanted to matchmake for her speechless.
She snorted and continued, "What's wrong with Shen Lin breaking off the engagement? It's because Shen Lin has no vision. He didn't even look at such a good candidate for a wife like me. As a result, I went to the countryside to be an educated youth. He looked down on me, a peasant, but he became a peasant himself."
Yuanchun raised her head high, deliberately looking at people with her chin raised, "My current conditions are among the best in Xiangqian Village. If you want to marry me, the man must be over 1.8 meters tall, handsome, and must be a first-time bride. He must not have any burdens at home, and it would be best if he has no parents. After I marry you, I can be the head of the family and I don't have to serve my parents-in-law."
"Oh, yes, he also needs to have money and a job. After all, my brother is a regular employee. As a sister, I absolutely cannot let him down. I must also find a regular employee to make my brother proud."
"Aunties and ladies, if you have such a man around you, you might as well introduce one to me. If the marriage is successful, I will definitely give you a generous matchmaking gift."
The group of village women were stunned by her shamelessness.
"Ah, bah, there is such a good young man, how can it be your turn? I have to leave it to my niece from my mother's side."
"My daughter is eighteen years old, and it's time for her to find a husband. I want to find a good young man for my daughter, but I can't bear to introduce him to you."
"You are an orphan and you want to marry a regular worker. You are dreaming."
"Yes, she's pretty, but not a goddess. There are all kinds of beautiful women that city guys haven't seen. Why does he have to go after a peasant like you?"
"Even Shen Lin looks down on you, and you still want to climb up the ladder and become a phoenix. What a beautiful thing you are dreaming of."
"It's just that you have a younger brother with a formal job. When he gets a sister-in-law, you'll see how proud you are."
"Oh, Sister Yuanchun, don't go. There is no man suitable for you, but there is a girl suitable for your brother. Why don't you ask him to come back and meet one of them?"
Yuanchun didn't want to bother with a group of ignorant village women anymore, so she turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by a young wife. "My sister is eighteen years old this year, graduated from junior high school, and is a scorekeeper in the production team of our Hongqi Village. She is a perfect match for your brother."
Yuanchun pulled out her arm and said with a fake smile, "The requirements for my brother's wife should be similar to those for the man I'm looking for. She must be at least 1.62 meters tall, graduate from high school, pretty and fair-skinned, have a formal job, have no burden from her family, not be a brother-supporting demon, or a mama's girl, and must be a girl with a right mind, steady, and dignified. After all, my brother and I have no parents, and my brother's wife will be the head of the family when she comes home. Someone who is not steady and has no mind will not do."
"Of course, it's not okay if you don't have a formal job. Otherwise, my brother would have to support the whole family with just his salary. That would be very hard."
