Chapter 191 Song Huili Has a Boyfriend
The other party's taunts came out of nowhere.
Ye Nuan frowned and whispered, "Who is this person?"
Although the voice was soft, the male student opposite him heard it clearly, and his expression immediately turned even worse.
"You don't even know who I am?"
Dong Xiaoling suppressed a laugh: "Nuannuan, this is our class's discipline monitor, his name is Liu Chengcai."
Ye Nuan suddenly realized: "Oh, it was him!"
It wasn't that Ye Nuan was deliberately looking down on this classmate Liu; it was just that she spent most of her time studying, and so far, she could probably only name no more than ten people in the class.
Liu Chengcai snorted heavily: "Don't think that just because you showed off yesterday, you're all that great. If you were really that great, you wouldn't need to come to the medical university."
Ye Nuan raised an eyebrow: "I didn't say I was very capable. In fact, I've been studying hard, hoping to graduate as soon as possible so I can focus on contributing to the country. I just don't understand, I haven't offended you, have I? I didn't even know you before, so why are you so hostile?"
Liu Chengcai said with a look of disdain, "Don't try to make yourself sound so innocent. If you weren't Teacher Su's student, how would you have gotten this learning opportunity? It's clearly me."
He abruptly stopped talking, as if he was trying his best to suppress something, and then left without looking back.
Ye Nuan felt completely innocent.
She really didn't know what she had done to offend this person.
Even if she couldn't figure it out, Ye Nuan wouldn't dwell on it.
After that, she studied quietly, thinking that she should get her graduation certificate in a shorter time so that she could do what she wanted to do sooner.
She is nineteen years old this year and is very satisfied with her life now.
However, Gu Hong was clearly a little anxious, and kept writing letters urging them to have a child as soon as possible.
Gu Hanchuan either ignored it or pretended to be ignorant, and he never mentioned it in his replies.
Sometimes when Song Huili came over, she would mention this to Ye Nuan.
"You have no idea, my mom now treats me like a tool for you to pressure her into having children."
"Okay, I understand. I'm busy with studies right now, I'll wait until next year. By the way, how's things going with your boyfriend?"
Song Huili immediately blushed.
She met a guy at the pharmaceutical factory. He worked in the technical department and spent almost every day in the lab. However, after meeting Song Huili a few times, the two gradually developed feelings for each other.
"Let's meet sometime. The elders aren't here, so Gu Hanchuan and I have to help you vet them. Don't worry, we're not the kind of people who are materialistic. As long as the other person is honest and upright, and comes from a good family, there won't be any problem."
"Okay, fine. I'll ask him if the weekend is okay?"
"it is good."
Because of this matter, Ye Nuan made a point of clearing out her entire weekend.
Ye Nuan also thought they could meet at home, but it would depend on their discussion.
On Friday, Song Huili took some time to go to the school.
“Sister-in-law, I asked Guoqiang, and he said that if it’s convenient, he would like to take me to meet his parents first, and then visit you.”
Ye Nuan frowned; this was inappropriate.
According to the custom of that era, the woman's family usually had to give their approval before she could visit the man's family; otherwise, gossip would easily spread.
"That's not a good idea. You should talk to him and suggest that if possible, we meet this weekend, either outside or at our home. But we must meet him first before you can go with him to visit the elders. Otherwise, it would be considered that the man doesn't know the proper etiquette."
Song Huili nodded, her expression slightly troubled.
She knew that in this kind of situation, the woman's family should give their approval first.
The conditions proposed by Guoqiang were somewhat impolite.
Song Huili's parents were both government officials, and she was taught from a young age not to give others cause for criticism and to be polite in her words and actions.
This time, she was also persuaded by Guoqiang's words, which made her somewhat waver.
Now that my sister-in-law has reminded me, I immediately stand firm and refuse to agree.
Song Huili's boyfriend's surname is Zhou, and he is a local.
Zhou Guoqiang's family has urban household registration, but their family conditions are very poor.
Zhou Guoqiang's mother is unemployed, and his father is a teacher, but due to the situation in the past two years, classes may be suspended frequently throughout the year, which directly leads to a reduction in his salary.
At the same time, Zhou Guoqiang has several younger siblings, and his grandmother also lives with them.
Zhou Guoqiang's younger brother has one working and one still in school, his other younger sister is married and another younger sister helps with housework at home.
Zhou Guoqiang's grandmother and mother often took on jobs like pasting matchboxes at home. They could barely earn ten or eight yuan a month, and that was the workload for at least two people. Sometimes, Zhou's younger sister had to help out.
Zhou Guoqiang was lucky because he got a job at a pharmaceutical factory after graduating from high school, which is why he became a worker.
After he became a worker, it improved his family's living conditions. At the very least, it meant that he had two people who could bring money home.
As for Zhou Guoqiang's younger brother, Zhou Guofu, he only started working last year. Because he was an apprentice, his monthly salary was very low. In addition, Zhou's father's salary was often only half a month's salary. So the three of them together were essentially receiving two salaries.
Most importantly, only the three of them received some ticket subsidies, and Zhou Guofu received very little because he was an apprentice.
So, if you calculate it this way, a family can barely eat meat once or twice a month, which isn't even enough to share among so many people.
Every winter, I would control the frequency and amount of meat I bought, just to save up meat coupons so I could have a good meal during the Lunar New Year.
Ye Nuan does not look down on families with poor conditions. Currently, various supplies are scarce, and most families are having a hard time.
Song Huili had never been to the Zhou family's home before, so she knew nothing about their living conditions.
After learning the name of Song Huili's boyfriend, Ye Nuan made a special call to Director Chen to confirm it.
Zhou Guoqiang's job at the pharmaceutical factory was decent; he didn't have any particularly outstanding achievements, but he wasn't particularly bad either.
Overall, it's a rather mediocre statement.
Mediocrity doesn't matter. Ye Nuan believes that as long as you work hard and are down-to-earth, you can always get by these days.
Moreover, Song Huili's job is relatively easy and her salary is not bad. If the young couple can live a good life together after marriage, that would be great.
In addition, with her and Gu Hanchuan taking care of things here, they, as the older brother and sister-in-law, can help make up for any deficiencies or lacks.
However, Ye Nuan completely abandoned this idea after meeting Zhou Guoqiang.
