I smiled awkwardly, twirling my fingers as I popped a piece of candy into my mouth. The bitter taste hit the back of my throat and I almost spat it out, coughing repeatedly. "Ahem, ahem, ahem."

The day after tomorrow, come to our house first and then I will take you to see Chanjuan's family. Everything is arranged. This time I came here with the intention of having my mother go back for a visit. I have never seen such a scene before and I am afraid of saying the wrong thing. If they are not satisfied, it will only worsen Yeyue's illness.

Without even saying a superfluous greeting, I quickly avoided her kind gaze and left dejectedly. Without taking a detour around their house, I was caught up by her aunt and dragged into an alleyway. "Don't tell Chanjuan about the issue with the man's hearing. Let us persuade her later, and she will be willing to go see him."

There's no other way, pushed to this point, even conscience can only be fed to the dogs.

I searched through every nook and cranny and found my high school classmate's yearbook. Then, I went through it one by one, searching for the girls whose good qualities I could remember.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that she is the most suitable candidate. I tidy up my hair, splash some water on my face, and don't even have time to eat breakfast before going to Ning Chuanjuan's house to propose.

What's wrong?" Ning Chan's mother asked me as she wiped the table and turned her head.

I still remember her, tall and thin, with a delicate appearance and a kind-hearted personality. When she graduated from high school, her parents tore up her acceptance letter because they needed to support her younger brother's education. She had a failed suicide attempt and ultimately did not go to college.

Momo, why are you back? Is your younger brother feeling better? The day before yesterday, I wanted to go to the county to see him, but later... Later, I guess her parents didn't give her money, so she couldn't make it. I finished the second half of the sentence for her in my heart.

Save Yeye. He used this word to indicate that he clearly knew about Yeye's condition, but refused to lend a helping hand. Faced with the cruelty of my father, I sat in the empty house, feeling like laughing and crying at the same time.

Momo, would a family like that be interested in our family? Should we try to climb higher? Although Ning Chan's father said so, his eyes revealed a desire to try.

Regarding the letter sent by my father, it states that he will not be returning for at least ten or eight years, and advises me to find a solution to save Ye Ye on my own.

I glanced at the entrance and Ning Chuanjuan hadn't come in yet. After hesitating for a moment, I decided to speak out the words I had been holding back for a long time: "It's just that the man has some health issues..."

He left the town with that woman. When they left and where they went, no one knows.

I didn't expect them to value it so much. My heart was pounding, and I blushed as I said, "I met him when I saw my mentor in Beijing. His family is from a coastal city, and the man's family has a group company. He is considered a general manager there."

Sister, I need to recover soon to prepare for the college entrance examination. He raised his head and looked at me deeply, "It seems like I need to recover even faster."

I have a classmate whose family wants to find a good girl from a respectable family to be his wife. The person who helps with the introduction will be rewarded with 50,000 RMB. I lowered my voice and said to my mother, while handing her the 1,000 RMB my father gave me yesterday, "This is a deposit."

I asked urgently, "Uncle Si, if someone's ears can't hear, does that count as a disability? Would Chan Chan be willing to accept it?"

My eyes are burning, tears are almost uncontrollable and about to flow out. My legs, trembling incessantly, are beyond my dimmed vision. My mother noticed my trembling, suddenly awakened, and quickly grabbed my arm: "When did you arrive?"

I stayed for four years, but she never came to visit once.

My hometown still maintains some old customs and traditions. As the head of the family, my father went far away, and Big Uncle and other relatives would not lend us money, and even no one in the whole town would dare to lend us money again. In their eyes, my mother and I will always be outsiders, without a local man, we could leave at any time, and the money lent out will not be returned.
