"Moreover, Director Han works at the supply and marketing cooperative, earning more than fifty yuan a month. It’s said that he doesn’t have to give his salary to his family; his parents cover the household expenses. The salaries of the three brothers are theirs to keep. If you marry him, his salary will be managed by you as his wife. With that kind of money each month, you can buy whatever you want."
"If you can marry into the Han Family, you can expect to become Mrs. Han, with money and leisure, living a carefree life."
"Although Director Han has two kids, they’re seven or eight years old and already attending elementary school, so you don’t need to take care of them. You just need to add an extra handful of rice when cooking."
Ma Laoer thought his brother made a good point.
Living, isn’t it all about money?
Without money, life is chaotic.
With money, life is fulfilling.
Country folks live a life without money.
City folks live like wealthier people.
Rural girls, who doesn’t hope to marry into the city and become city folks?
Ma Laoer also advised his sister, "Lingzi, I think Laosan is right. With your conditions, marrying Director Han is a fortune accumulated over a hundred years. Look at the young girls in our village; who isn’t getting up early and toiling on the farms? They still have to do housework when they return home. If you encounter a harsh mother-in-law, no matter how well you do, you will suffer."
"Director Han’s parents are cultured people, surely kind and reasonable, otherwise they wouldn’t let their sons keep their salaries to themselves. The old couple supports so many people themselves. With such good in-laws, marrying over, you won’t suffer from a harsh mother-in-law."
"Lingzi, this is about your entire life. You have to think it over carefully. If you miss this opportunity, there won’t be another like it. You’ll end up marrying a village man, working in the fields every day, managing household chores, and still being unable to eat well, dress warmly, or have extra money. At that time, I hope you won’t regret it."
Ma Xiangling seemed to have taken her two brothers’ advice.
She quieted down and choked up, saying, "I... I want to first see Director Han. If he turns out to be ugly and old, I definitely won’t marry."
"Alright, soon you’ll go with mom to the supply and marketing cooperative to find your sister-in-law. Let your sister-in-law take you to buy some defective goods, and she will surely take you to the office to have a look."
Ma Laosan glanced at his watch and said, "Mom, Second Brother, Lingzi, it’s time for me to go to work. I’ll leave now. You can go directly to the supply and marketing cooperative."
After Ma Laosan left, Ma Laoer also rode the tricycle, taking Yuan Chun and Ma Xiangling to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Wang Yingying was sitting at the counter inside the supply and marketing cooperative, knitting a sweater. Seeing her mother-in-law and sister-in-law arrive, she normally wouldn’t bother to get up, but now Wang Yingying eagerly put down the knitting and warmly welcomed them, "Mom, why are you here? Is there something you want to buy?"
Yuan Chun responded lightly, "Isn’t it almost New Year? We came to see if there are any defective goods at the supply and marketing cooperative and want to buy some to take back."
"Mom, you came at the right time. This morning, a batch of fabric with dyeing defects arrived. The management is letting our staff consume them internally. Come with me to the office, and I’ll ask Director Han how much I can get. Later, you can buy my share."
A chance to openly see Director Han, Ma Xiangling was, of course, delighted.
