Chapter 273: Provoking Discord (2)
However, there were still many young girls willing to marry Mo Beihan due to his ability. After all, in this era, diligence and ability to take care of his family would be worthy of praise.
However, the Mo family was not willing.
There were people who expressed their interest, but Jiang Yingqiu was not willing to accept.
After rejecting for a few times, some started to claim that she was waiting for a girl from the city. Some said that she was concerned about her two grandchildren. Mo Beihan’s money could be used to raise the two children before he got married.
No matter how kind he was, he would spend on his wife.
They would have their own child and the expenditure would increase. Jiang Yingqiu and the two children would receive less money.
That was the reason why Jiang Yingqiu was not willing to accept.
There were others who were unwilling to raise two nephews for Mo Beihan. Jiang Yingqiu would take care of the two children. She might live with the two children in the future. Mo Beihan might not need to take care of the elderly.
So they were waiting for the two children in the Mo family to grow up and Jiang Yingqiu would bring them away.
Despite all the conditions, many still envied the Mo family’s wealth.
The two children could be counted as a flaw that was not so serious.
But no one expected that Mo Beihan would get engaged suddenly.
Engaged to Gu Qingyao from the Qing River Brigade.
No one expected that based on Mo Beihan’s condition, he would find someone from the Gu family with bad elements.
Thus, there were many gossips recently but most of them were out of jealousy.
When Gu Qingyao came to the Nanhu brigade, she saw several old women sitting under the sun at the corner. One of the middle-aged women was talking to one of them very exaggeratedly.
“Aunt, Beihan is really an excellent guy. I’m afraid there’s no one else in the brigade that can be as capable as him. He has such a good job and a bright future. Why did he suddenly get engaged with the Gu family? Will Beihan’s future be affected by the Gu family?”
The old lady’s expression changed.
That woman continued, “Your grandsons are all working at the farm. They are having good lives and many chores in the brigade are done by them.
“They’re quite old now. It’s difficult for them to achieve something outside. But your great-grandsons are very capable. The eldest is nearly twenty years old now. How lucky you are to have great-grandsons at your age.
“With Beihan’s capability, you will not need to worry about your great grandson’s future with his help. What a pity that he was engaged to Gu Qingyao who is from a landlord family.”
The old lady was Mo Beihan’s grandmother, Jiang Linshi!
She was a very stubborn and snobbish elderly.
The lady who was talking to her by the side was Sun Mei’s mother, Qin Yufeng!
Jiang Linshi was quite blessed to have three daughters and one son.
Her son was the Nanhu Brigade’s leader, Jiang Feng.
Jiang Linshi was very biased towards guys and was proud of giving birth to a boy. After giving birth to Jiang Feng, she still wanted to have another boy. But she gave birth to Jiang Yingqiu. She was injured after that and could not bear any baby.
She did not like her daughter Jiang Yingqiu.
Jiang Yingqiu was not very obedient after she grew up. To Jiang Linshi, Jiang Yingqiu was very rebellious and disrespectful. Therefore, she really hated Jiang Yingqiu now.
