Chapter 497: How Unjust, Why Does It Have To Be Us!

Mo Beihan was rather embarrassed, especially when Gu Jinhang and Gu Jinfeng shot him sharp looks. He said, “Perhaps that was true in the past, but it’s definitely not the case now. You know that all the girls in the brigade are avoiding me.”
“Pfft…” Gu Qingyao giggled. Of course she knew why. It was because so many children had suddenly turned up in Mo Beihan’s family.
Gu Qingyao said, “Sun Mei has always wanted to marry and move to the city. In the past, I could tell that she was trying to curry Gu Ruoqing’s favor, but she failed. But I have been to the city and the contrast between us is very stark.
“Now Brother Beihan’s family burdens are too heavy, so she is no longer considering him. In the entire Qing River and Southern Lake Brigades, only the Gu family has members who have managed to move to the city.
“Sun Mei’s family has experienced an upheaval. If she can marry you boys, she can live in the city!”
Gu Jinlin: “…”
Gu Jinhang: “…”
Gu Jinfeng: “…”
Mo Beihan paused. He immediately grasped the crux of the matter. He burst out laughing when he looked at Gu Jinfeng. “I think that Second and Fourth Brother had better be more careful. Both of you are definitely her main targets.”
Gu Jinfeng and Gu Jinhang immediately jumped. “Why does it have to be us?”
Their tone was aggrieved.
Gu Qingyao almost died of laughter.
Mo Beihan said, “Because the two of you are comparatively richer, and your family has no burdens! Only the five of you are adults. Eldest Brother has gone north and is unavailable. Third Brother’s family has to support younger children and has burdens. Only the two of you have good jobs and no burdens.”
Gu Jinhang: “…”
Gu Jinfeng: “…”
Gu Jinhang was still smiling. But when he spoke, his words were vicious.
“In these times, it is not easy for a village girl to marry and move to the city. But why is she so confident that we will like her?”
“That’s right! Why?” Gu Jinfeng was also enraged.
Mo Beihan said, “Because both of you are outstanding! But at the same time, the Gu family’s status is low. Sun Mei has a low opinion of the Gu family. In her heart, she believes she will certainly succeed.”
Gu Jinhang: “…”
Gu Jinfeng: “…”
Wow!
She despised them. They must certainly avenge themselves.
Gu Qingyao said, “No matter what, her thinking is her business. The Sun family has been very unlucky lately. The Sun family has doted on Sun Mei since she was young, and she has not suffered much, so she is selfish and arrogant. Now that her family fortunes have suddenly changed, and with her four greedy and lazy older brothers, she must be afraid that her family will marry her off to just anyone in exchange for food. So she’s urgently looking for a way out for herself.
“Brothers, comparatively speaking, both of you are the best targets. So you had better be careful over the next few days. Remember not to go out alone, and don’t give her a chance to get close to either of you. The new year holiday is almost over and both of you will be returning to the city shortly, then you’ll be safe.”
Gu Jinhang and Gu Jinfeng looked as if they had swallowed a fly! Their expressions were ugly!
Gu Jinlin rubbed his nose. So there were advantages in being poor!
Hahaha!
The next day was the second day of the new year. Gu Qingyao went to pay a new year visit to the Mo family, and Mo Beihan came to pick her up.
They were engaged and she must make a gesture during the new year and on festive occasions. Coincidentally, she had not visited for many days, so she went over to play with the children.
The moment she reached the door, she ran into Sun Mei.
When she saw Gu Qingyao, Sun Mei immediately advanced, her expression warm and friendly. “Yao Yao, you’ve come!”
Gu Qingyao’s lips twitched. She had clearly been waiting here for her!
Sigh…
It looked as if she wouldn’t be able to have a nice time playing today!
