Chapter 1 Encountering biased parents
"Mom, Hua An will come to propose marriage in a few days."

A woman who just came in from outside said.

She had two exquisite braids and wore a long skirt. She looked gentle.

It would be better if you didn't look at her with a slightly smug look while talking, it's too obvious. Qiao Qingqing, who was sitting at the dinner table, thought so in her heart.

\\\"Shan Shan is back. Have you eaten? Mom will take you a ride." Qiao's mother put down her bowl and chopsticks and stood up and asked.

The young woman, Qiao Shanshan, sat next to Qiao's mother.

She hugged Qiao's mother and smiled and said, "Mom, no need. Hua An and I ate outside at noon."

When she saw Qiao Qingqing, as if she thought of something, Qiao Shanshan's smiling face instantly turned into sadness. She bit her lip and wanted to say something.

Qiao Qingqing rolled her eyes when she saw her delicate and artificial look, knowing that her next words would definitely not be good.

As expected, after several inquiries from Qiao's mother, Qiao Shanshan spoke hesitantly.

"Mom, my sister will go to the countryside in a few days. Hua An and I will get married in half a month at the earliest. I'm afraid my sister won't be able to catch up with my wedding. Besides, she's still young and has to go to the countryside. I... I'm a little worried."

"Why don't you find some connections for your sister! Aunt Zhao's brother-in-law next door is now a member of the ge committee. I heard that their family wants to find a daughter-in-law who is knowledgeable and well-behaved, and the betrothal gift is not small!"

Looking at Qiao's mother's somewhat moved look, Qiao Qingqing suppressed the disgust in her heart.

"What are you talking about, sister? You can't say that casually." Qiao Qingqing disagreed.

"The educated youth went to the countryside to respond to the call of the motherland, to receive re-education, and to build a new socialist countryside. If you spread this, I'm afraid our family will have to..." Qiao Qingqing didn't finish her words, but the meaning was very clear.

"Besides, the neighbors all know that I'm going to the countryside. How could I make a mistake if there are so many people watching me in the GE committee? Where did you hear the news?" Qiao Qingqing looked suspicious and her tone was slightly sarcastic.

Although Qiao's mother was somewhat tempted by the high-priced betrothal gifts, she was more afraid of rumors. You know how fierce the riots were in the past few years. She had seen it.

"Sister, you..."

"Shanshan, okay, don't say anything more. Your sister's going to the countryside will not change."

Qiao's mother looked unhappy and scolded her harshly, interrupting what Qiao Shanshan was about to say.

"Mom, I'm doing this for my sister's good. If she doesn't want to hear it, then don't want to hear it!" Qiao Shanshan pouted and said aggrievedly.

She thought to herself that although Qiao Qingqing couldn't marry that violent man and suffer the same suffering as she suffered in her previous life, it was a pity, but going to the countryside was not bad.

Thinking about the experience of the female educated youth who went to the countryside in her previous life, looking at Qiao Qingqing's fair face, she couldn't help but look forward to it again.

She said with some gloating: "Since my sister is willing to go to the countryside, what else can I, as a sister, say?" She turned around and went back to the house with a pout.
