Chapter 1261 Raised as a son
None of the girls in Zhu Bamei's workshop are worried about getting married.
The orphan girl Zhou Guihua almost became a loser to the Zhou family because she had a scar on her face and had no support from her natal family. She also found a good family because she entered a garment shop.
Originally, Zhou Guihua was not ugly, but she fell down when she was a child and accidentally injured her face, which made her look not so good-looking.
On top of that, my parents died young and I was raised by my grandpa and grandma. I feel a little low on self-esteem and I'm really not very likable.
But for such a taciturn little girl, she was able to calm down and learn embroidery, and her handwork was also very meticulous.
The teaching master also wanted to give her a way out, so he chose her to be the first batch of students.
Zhou Guihua herself worked hard and practiced hard, and she actually has some talent in embroidery. Although she still cannot catch up with her master, she is still at the forefront among the students.
Coupled with the work I usually do in a garment shop, I can get some small money every month, which is enough to support myself.
Grandpa and grandma were relieved when they saw her like this, and the uncles and aunts who originally didn't want to care about her began to treat her well.
There was nothing he could do. Zhou Guihua was in his own hands because he didn't want to be seen before. He couldn't get married and became a freeloader. Now Zhou Guihua can support herself and occasionally add meals to the family. She is almost a labor force, so naturally she can
No one refused.
Under such circumstances, Mrs. Liu intervened again and introduced a few people. It didn't take long before she was attracted by a young man.
The young man's family conditions are not particularly good, but there are many brothers in the family, so they can make ends meet. He chose Zhou Guihua because his niece, who works in a garment factory, praised Zhou Guihua several times to her family.
.
"Sister Osmanthus Osmanthus is a nice person, very gentle. Every time I have any questions, she will tell me when I ask her. She doesn't care about others at all, she will hide it and treat me like a thief."
"But it's a pity that Sister Guihua has a scar on her face. Because of this, others dislike her."
"Really, last time there was a cripple who wanted to marry sister Zhou Guihua. Why? That cripple couldn't support himself, but he wanted to marry my sister Guihua. My sister Hua Guihua got a first-class degree in the garment shop.
With a monthly salary, in a few years, I will definitely be able to become a group leader..."
…
Probably because my niece had read a lot, when the young man met Zhou Guihua and was blocked by two cripples on the way again, he directly helped her out.
After going back and forth like this, the young man fell in love with her on his own.
The young man’s parents: “…”
If they didn't know their son's temperament, they would all suspect that their son was interested in someone else's monthly salary.
Before asking the matchmaker Liu to marry her, they repeatedly asked their son: "Are you really attracted to her? Don't marry her back then. There is a scar on her face, and she thinks she looks ugly."
"No, my son has just fallen in love with you. You can come and propose marriage. I will definitely not regret it."
…
Back home, Zhu San mentioned the matter to Ye Yuran. Zhu Bamei was getting older and was in charge of this chess and card competition. There would definitely be more people to deal with by then, and maybe someone would take advantage of Zhu Bamei.
It is better for them to prevent this kind of thing in advance. Don't let Lin Sanmei, Lin Simei take precautions here, but Zhu Bamei is plotted by others, then she will really vomit blood.
He would rather Zhu Bamei not be so capable than become someone else's prey.
"Only a thief can be a thief for a thousand days, and there is no thief who can guard against a thief for a thousand days. You can guard against one, but you cannot guard against them for a lifetime." Ye Yuran raised his eyelids, "Is it possible that because of this, I have to lock your eighth sister at home?
Let her never go out for the rest of her life?"
"Mom, that's not what I meant. I just think that we should have an idea about this kind of thing..."
"I know this well. Look, your eighth sister is going out now. When did I leave her alone? It's just that this time you are going to see Magistrate Dai. I want your eighth sister to become familiar with you. It will be better in the future.
I have to do something, so I asked her to follow you." Ye Yuran paused and said, "Besides, don't you think your eighth sister is more confident after she comes back?"
Zhu San couldn't refute this: "In the past, the conditions at home were not good, so there was nothing we could do to keep Bamei busy. Now that the conditions at home are better, I don't think it is necessary to let Bamei take the lead anymore. Mother, don't you think your arrangement...
…Is it very problematic?”
When I didn't think about it carefully before, Zhu San didn't think so, but now that I've thought about Zhu Bamei's matter, Zhu San felt that there was something wrong.
It’s no problem for you to let Zhu Bamei learn about business and do business. Before, his mother was too busy, so it was no problem for you to ask Zhu Bamei to help take care of Zhu’s education. Now, we have to hold chess and card competitions, and we have to negotiate with major businessmen and government officials.
Big confession, his mother still lets Zhu Bamei take charge, is this really okay?
Even if his mother doesn't want her son to get involved with businessmen, she doesn't need Zhu Bamei to come forward when it comes to matters like Magistrate Dai, right?
Following Zhu San's doubts, Ye Yuran's eyes became strange. She smiled and said, "I didn't expect that you saw it."
Did he see it? Zhu San was at a loss.
I don't know if it was his misunderstanding, but he always felt that what his mother meant...
"You're right, I did it on purpose."
Zhu San frowned: "Why?"
"Because, I want to raise my eighth sister as my son."
"Isn't it enough that you have so many sons? The eighth sister is just a girl, and she is the only girl in the family. There is no need for this, right?"
"It has nothing to do with this. I just want your eighth sister to become a self-reliant woman in the future. Even if one day I am gone, she will be able to rely only on her own body without relying on her brother or her future husband."
If you have the ability, you can live well in this world."
Zhu Sanyi couldn't understand for a moment: "Mom, are you worried that we won't care about Bamei in the future? How is it possible? We watched Bamei grow up. No matter what our brothers become in the future, it is impossible for us to ignore our own.
My biological sister... with us here, who would bully her?"
"I never thought that you brothers would treat Bamei badly, and I never doubted it, but no matter how nice you are to her, she will have to live her own life. Whether she is living well or not is not
It depends on what she eats, what she wears, and who she marries, but whether she lives comfortably, whether she can do what she wants to do, and live the life she wants..." Ye Yuran looked at Zhu San,
With a serious look on her face, "Only a person who can control her own destiny can be free throughout her life and do whatever she wants."
Seeing that Zhu San still didn't understand, Ye Yuran sighed. She knew that this was the limitation of this world. No matter how smart Zhu San was, he could not understand what true "freedom" meant.
