Chapter 2214 Cousin is a capitalist lady 40
Zhao Yadong knew he couldn't hide this from Zhang Yu. "It's not that I didn't want to tell you, but I was worried that if I told you in advance, you wouldn't be able to act, and what if that crazy woman saw it?"

"You know perfectly well that Zhan Min is keeping an eye on the two of you."

"We actually only found out about this news a couple of days ago, and to avoid any appearance of impropriety, we made sure to let others know about it."

Zhao Yadong didn't want Zhan Min to target him. It wasn't that he couldn't deal with her, but he was too busy—busy reading books, busy making money—too busy to have time to get involved with a madwoman.

"I see," Zhang Yu said, at least explaining something, regardless of whether it was true or not. "Why him?"

"It's simple. That man pursued Zhan Min before, but she didn't agree and even spoke ill of him outside, saying he was a toad trying to eat swan meat, making him sound very bad."

Which boy ever pursued Zhan Min? Zhang Yu worked with a group of older women, and since she was usually busy with her own affairs and didn't have much contact with many of the educated youth, she had no idea about this at all.

“I’ve only seen him a few times, and it seems like he helped Zhan Min with some work.” Yes, this was said by an older woman who worked with him. Actually, she wanted to ask Zhang Yu if they were together. “I also think Zhan Min is quite good at bluffing.”

Zhang Yu really didn't expect that it would be a man pursuing Zhan Min. "His taste is really..." She really didn't know how the other person could think Zhan Min was so good.

"Yeah, I really don't understand." Zhao Yadong was also stunned for a long time when he heard the news. "I can only say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

Otherwise, how can it be explained? Zhao Yadong felt there was only one possibility.

Zhang Yu nodded, "Yes, but how did they fall out?"

“He’s already helped her with the work, what a good young man.” Zhang Yu just couldn’t understand it.

“I know. The man felt they were getting on in years, and Zhan Min didn’t object, so they wanted to get married before the brigade distributed the grain,” Zhao Yadong said in a low voice.

What? So rushed? Zhang Yu knew that Zhan Min was probably older than her. She started school late to take care of her younger siblings. "She's getting married in just a few months, and why is it before the grain distribution?"

Although she disliked Zhan Min quite a bit, Zhang Yu felt there was something wrong with the man's suggestion of a specific time for marriage.

"When it comes to distributing grain, we educated youth are accounted for individually. Of course, if we get married, we are accounted for together."

Zhang Yu knew about this and thought it was fine. "We're already married, so we should definitely consider it together, since we're living together as a family."

"Yes, it's a pity that the man was thinking that after the grain was distributed, he would mail half of it back to his family before the heavy snow blocked the roads." Even though it had been a long time since he heard this news, Zhao Yadong still found it unbelievable.

Half of the grain was mailed back? Zhang Yu's eyes widened as she stared at Zhao Yadong in disbelief, thinking that her ears seemed perfectly fine. How could she have heard such a terrifying phrase?

“That’s right, you heard me right. That’s exactly what they meant. They even said that if Zhan Min marries him, they’ll be family. In order to get his parents’ approval for the marriage, Zhan Min needs to perform well.”

Good heavens! Zhang Yu was really starting to lose her temper. "How could there be someone like him who would actually want Zhan Min to perform well?"

"So he's tired of supporting the family and just wants to find a woman to share the burden." Zhang Yu snorted coldly. "He really shouldn't have gotten married. He shouldn't have ruined his wife or his future children."

"So be careful," Qian Hao blurted out suddenly while practicing his calligraphy. Huh? He told her to be careful? Zhang Yu quickly realized, "They're not planning to do anything to me, are they?"

No way, she already made a lot of people change their minds and no longer think she's a good wife candidate, so why is she making a comeback now?

"Yes, many educated youths are eyeing you. After all, you get 15 work points a month. Even if you're not quick at work, they might be thinking that once they marry you, they'll make you work hard and make sure you don't just get three or four work points."

"He's ugly on the outside but has a beautiful mind on the inside," Zhang Yu sneered. "There's really no need to pity him."

“Yes, yes, yes, there’s no need to pity them.” Zhao Yadong nodded repeatedly. “Those two are really not good people.”

"So you chose him." Zhang Yu understood why Zhao Yadong would choose that person.

"By the way, you guys said Zhan Min said she wanted to hold a meeting. What's she up to?" Zhang Yu was worried that once Zhan Min recovered, she would start causing trouble again.

"Don't worry, she won't cause any more trouble, at least not before the New Year," Zhao Yadong reassured Zhang Yu.

See? I knew this guy knew a lot. He looked up at someone, who said quite frankly, "I just heard those two talking about having New Year's Eve dinner together."

"Eat New Year's Eve dinner together?" Zhang Yu's first reaction was, "They're so ugly, they're dreaming. What kind of New Year's goods have they prepared?"

Those who could afford it had already started cooking for themselves or formed groups to share meals. Zhang Yu knew that those still eating from the same pot were not in good financial condition, including Zhan Min and that man.

"This isn't right." Since the two of them were discussing having New Year's Eve dinner together, shouldn't this be a good thing for both of them? Why did they end up arguing?

"Just because of Zhan Min's past troubles?" Those are all things that happened in the past. Why would you fall out over something like that?

Regarding this, Zhao Yadong glanced at Qian Hao, wondering what he was going to say. Could it be that Zhan Min had taken a liking to Qian Hao and was planning to scheme against him?

Instead of answering her own question, she kept looking at Qian Hao. Zhang Yu remembered Zhan Min's expression when she found out that the six of them were going to the Vanguard Brigade, and how she kept scrutinizing Qian Hao and the others.

"They chose Qian Hao." Although Guo Bo initially gave the impression that his family was well-off, as time went on, everyone knew the truth. If his family truly remembered this son, wouldn't they frequently send him packages and money?

He was one of the few people who earned high work points, so it would be strange if Zhan Min chose him.

As for Zhao Yadong next to me, he is good-looking, but it's a pity about his mouth. He often says things that are infuriating and has argued with Zhan Min many times. It would be strange if he was chosen.

As for Qian Hao, needless to say, he often receives packages, which clearly shows that his family remembers him as their son.

More importantly, he exudes a scholarly air. Not to mention Zhan Min, even Zhang Yu could tell from the conversations of the village women that Qian Hao was the man many young women in the village most wanted to marry.

Even young wives would give Qian Hao a once-over when they saw him. Fortunately, Qian Hao always kept his distance when talking to people and never accepted anything from anyone. So even though many young men in the village were quite dissatisfied with him, Qian Hao was still well-regarded by the villagers.
