Chapter 240: Take the initiative to come
Hua Xiali raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Who is it?"
How come she doesn't know she has little sisters?
"That's... the one you asked her to miss." Jia Yuqiang's ears were so red that they were about to bleed.
Hua Xiali suddenly realized. Hua Si Nian was two years younger than her and was nineteen years old this year. Her age was fine. Besides, Jia Yuqiang was working for Hua Xiali now and had a stable job, so he would not be short of money in the future. So it was fine for the two of them to be together. Jia Yuqiang was definitely a hundred times better than the husband that Hua Si Nian's family had arranged for her in her previous life.
Because Hua Xiali provided Jia Yuqiang with a stable job and a stable income, and also arranged a place for him to live in Chenzhuang. The homestead was registered under Jia Yuqiang's name, and the demolition compensation also belonged to Jia Yuqiang. Jia Yuqiang's life was guaranteed, which was not bad.
"You don't need me to introduce you. Think it through. If you are sure you like her and can treat her well, then you can take the initiative to go to her house. If you delay, she will find a husband and you will have no hope." Hua Xiali said, "It is best to go at night when no one can see you. If it doesn't work out, it won't affect Si Nian's reputation. After all, a girl's reputation is very important."
She didn't want to be a matchmaker because that meant taking responsibility. She would let the two of them develop freely and she would be responsible if there were any problems in the future.
But it shouldn't be a big problem. They are all from the countryside and don't have so many cunning ideas.
Jia Yuqiang nodded, "I understand. I will plan this matter carefully."
After that, Jia Yuqiang put down the teacup, stood up and left.
Hua Xiali didn't expect that Jia Yuqiang would like Hua Si Nian. It must be that Jia Yuqiang saw Hua Si Nian when he came to their house for the wedding banquet!
However, Hua Xiali did not expect Jia Yuqiang to be so quick. She originally thought that Jia Yuqiang would arrange the matters of the sugarcane field before doing this. Unexpectedly, he went to Hua Si Nian's house with a bunch of gifts that night, which scared Hua Si Nian's family.
However, Jia Yuqiang first talked about the sugarcane harvesting. If Hua Si Nian's parents are willing to wholesale and sell sugarcane, they can just come to him directly.
Afterwards, Jia Yuqiang told Hua Si Nian about his relationship with her. Not only were Hua Si Nian's parents shocked, but Hua Si Nian herself was also shocked, because she had never expected that Hua Xiali's cousin would actually like her.
Jia Yuqiang was working in the sugarcane field in Chenzhuang across the street. Hua Si Nian naturally knew him, and she would see him every time she went to Hua Xiali's house for a banquet, but she had never thought about this matter.
Hua Si Nian is already 19 years old and can get the marriage certificate at the age of 20. Hua Si Nian's parents are indeed planning to find a husband for her, but they have not yet talked to relatives about this matter.
They had no dissatisfaction with Jia Yuqiang. After all, the young man was good-looking and worked with Hua Xiali, who was so capable. How could Hua Xiali treat him unfairly when she was working with her?
But they can't just agree to it casually. After all, they only have a basic understanding. Everyone knows these things, but what about the deeper aspects that no one knows about?
Hua Si Nian's parents looked at each other, and her father said, "Jia Yuqiang, you are an excellent young man, and we have nothing to dislike about you, but we can't just agree to everyone who comes, right? After all, there is only one girl in our family, and we can't allow everyone to go out, so we have to observe and see what Si Nian wants to do. If she doesn't agree, we can't force her to agree, don't you think?"
"Yes, uncle is right." Jia Yuqiang nodded. "It would be great if uncle and aunt are willing to give me the opportunity to meet Comrade Hua Si Nian. The rest depends on my performance!" "I can give you this opportunity, but you can't let others know, so as not to affect our Si Nian's reputation and prevent her from getting married." Hua Si Nian's father said seriously.
In fact, Jia Yuqiang is really good in all aspects. If they were asked to find a partner for their daughter themselves, they would never find such a person. But they can't agree immediately without principles. If you don't make it difficult, the other party may not cherish their daughter in the future. So just make it difficult to show his sincerity.
"Si Nian, go and see Comrade Jia Yuqiang off." Hua Si Nian's father advised when Jia Yuqiang left.
For a little girl, being liked by others is indeed a very sweet thing. Although Hua Si Nian was nervous and shy, she also felt a little sweet in her heart.
After hearing her father's words, Hua Si Nian nervously stood up to see him off under Jia Yuqiang's gaze. She walked out of the house and into the dim moonlight courtyard. Hua Si Nian was so nervous that she didn't know which leg to step first. She felt her heart pounding as if it was going to jump out of her chest.
When he reached the gate, Jia Yuqiang looked down at the blurry figure in front of him, stuffed a box into Hua Si Nian's hand, and said nervously, "No need to send me off, I know the way myself."
Then he walked out of the courtyard and left.
Although they had met several times, today was the first time they had spent time together in such a formal manner, so Jia Yuqiang was as nervous as a little girl.
I guess all the courage I've ever had in my life was used up today. Without any elders or help, I went to Yue's house alone. Fortunately, the result was not bad.
Hua Si Nian watched Jia Yuqiang's back as he left until she could no longer see him. Then she closed and locked the gate, hid the box in her cotton-padded jacket, and went home.
I saw her parents sitting on the sofa checking the things Jia Yuqiang brought, including good cigarettes, good wine, and exquisite pastries. These were good things that would not have been possible for their family in the past two years. Even after they made money with Hua Xiali, they were still reluctant to buy such good things. But now Jia Yuqiang gave them so many things so easily.
"Mom and Dad, I'm sleepy. I'm going back to my room to rest." Hua Si Nian said softly when she saw her parents excitedly checking things.
Hua Si Nian's mother didn't have time to care about her. She waved her hand and said, "Go, go!"
Afterwards, Hua Si Nian walked into a small room separated from the main hall. That's right, she didn't have her own room. It was a small room separated from the main hall, which only had room for a bed and a desk. Since it was separated from the house, it was pitch black even during the day.
Even if the window was opened, it would be useless because the room was in the main hall and the sunlight could not penetrate through the main hall to shine into her room, which meant that her room was dark all year round.
