Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich

Chapter 251: He Is Very Old



When Aunt Yang heard this, her eyes lit up.

There were many young men in their village, but among these young men, she had the best impression of Ji Guangzong.

This young man was tall, capable, and also good at taking care of the family. His six sisters who were married survived difficult periods in their marriage because of his help a few years ago, and Aunt Yang heard that they were all doing well now.

Everyone knew about this, so Aunt Yang was naturally happy with him.

It was just…

“Guangzong is also 20 this year, right? His mother should have helped him find a partner a long time ago,” Aunt Yang said.

His mother only had one son, so it was not difficult for her to guess that Guangzong’s mother probably had prepared a wife a long time ago.

There were advantages and disadvantages to having only one son. The advantage was that all the savings that Father Guangzong and Mother Guangzong have worked hard for all their lives belong to him. The disadvantage was that their care in old age fell on him alone. If anything happened, he could only take care of them by himself.

But in the village, the disadvantage was not a problem. Everyone in the village helped each other.

In comparison, the advantage was really good. Father Guangzong and Mother Guangzong were both diligent and thrifty, so they must have good savings.

Of course, Aunt Yang didn’t prioritize this. The main priority was to see whether the young man was good or not. As for his family situation, that was secondary. Rich in-laws were a bonus, because it could reduce a lot of pressure on Ji Guangzong.

“He's 20, and his mother is a little worried. However, he told Jianyun that it's still early and he didn’t plan to get married anytime soon. He wants to wait for three years no matter what. Daya is 15. It’s too early to say what will happen, but in three years she will be 18. Three years is not a long time, it will come in a blink of an eye. Aunt, just think of Renren and Qiqi. They are very young, but look at how they are jumping around everywhere together now,” Su Danhong said with a smile.

Aunt Yang also smiled.

“That young man Guangzong is pretty good,” Uncle Yang said on the side.

“If he wasn't good, then I wouldn't come and talk about him. Daya will get married sooner or later, so I just want to ask if that is something she really wants? If it is, then let them get to know each other. As for the marriage, let's talk about later,” Su Danhong said.

“I'll talk to Daya when she comes back.” Aunt Yang nodded.

For an exceptional young man like Ji Guangzong, he really needed to settle down early. Aunt Yang’s granddaughter was also exceptional, which was why Su Danhong came over to talk about it.

After Su Danhong returned, Aunt Yang talked to Uncle Yang more. “Guangzong is a good man, but I don't think Ma Hui will let Daya get married so soon.”

Aunt Yang’s eldest daughter-in-law hoped that Daya could marry a rich man in the town, so that she would be taken care of.

“18 is not too young. When Guangzong is 23, he will be five years older than her and he will be able to take care of her. If he marries Daya, then you won't have to worry about her for the rest of your life. If you want her to marry someone in the town or the county, it's hard to tell what will happen,” Uncle Yang said.

He also knew what his eldest daughter-in-law wanted, but they both knew his eldest granddaughter’s personality. She was too honest and hardworking. How could they be at ease with her marriage?

It was better to marry someone from the same village, and they liked Ji Guangzong. He would be the same as he is now in the future. His family was simple, which was very suitable for their eldest granddaughter.

Yang Daya would come back once a month. She would come back after nine o'clock in the morning once she was done helping second Su sister-in-law with the morning rush hour. It usually took more than an hour to walk over, so it was usually almost ten o'clock when she returned to the village.

She stayed until the evening. She had dinner, and then went back to town.

Yang Daya came back this month, and she was wearing the new clothes second Su sister-in-law bought for her. Although she was quite busy in the shop, she was lazy in the village. She barely went out.

She ate three meals a day at second Su sister-in-law's place. It was very good, so Yang Daya had grown a lot in the past two years. Even though she was only 15 years old, she was already almost 1.55 meters tall. Most women in the village were shorter than that.

She was only 15 and would continue to grow. She would eventually be taller than 1.6 meters. A girl of 1.6 meters was more than enough to match a man of over 1.8 meters like Ji Guangzong. Girls liked this height difference, as it made them feel protected.

For Su Danhong, she knew what this protective desire was about.

When Yang Daya came back, she went over to her grandparents' place.

She also brought three yuan over.

Aunt Yang said to her, “You don't have to bring us money. Don't get scolded by your mother.”

Yang Daya smiled, and whispered, “My mother doesn't know about this money. My boss's wife has told me about it since last month, to save some of the money for myself and to be careful. I don’t have anywhere to put it, so I’ll have grandma keep it for me.”

Hearing this, Aunt Yang nodded. “I'll keep it for you. When you get married, you can take it with you as your dowry!”

She saw how her eldest granddaughter was looking more and more beautiful. She was prettier than the other girls in the village, and she did not work in the fields for the past two years. She was much fairer, and her hands and feet were not rough.

Yang Daya shook her head. “Grandma, go buy some meat for yourself. It's still too early for me to get married.”

“It's not too early. You’re already 15 this year, and you’ll be 18 in three years. That’s pretty much the same age,” Aunt Yang said.

Every girl would be a little embarrassed if their grandma said this. Yang Daya was no exception. Her face turned slightly red.

Aunt Yang smiled and said, “Daya, do you know Ji Guangzong in our village?”

“I know.” Yang Daya was surprised when she heard this and nodded without realizing why.

“What do you think of him?” Aunt Yang asked.

“Grandma, why are you asking this? I'm only 15.” Yang Daya suddenly understood and her face turned red.

“You’re 15, don't you want to settle down now? What do you think of Guangzong? He is five years older than you, and his situation at home is very good. Your grandfather and I are very optimistic about him. There’s also Danhong, she came over to suggest it, and we think it will be very good,” Aunt Yang said.

“He-he is very old,” Yang Daya replied weakly.

“Very old?” Aunt Yang laughed. “Guangzong is only five years older than you, but he has been working in the fields for a long time so he does look older. But that's what people like him are like. Look back and wait. When he is in his 30s, he will not change. Back in the day, some people didn’t like how Jianyun looked and said that he looked old. Now look at him, he still looks the same after all these years. Guangzong is similar to him. He is at a disadvantage with his looks when he is in his 20s, and when he gets older, he will have the advantage.”
