Kissed and Seduced By the Most Rough Man in the Village-Chapter 255: Which Man Doesn’t Support His Wife but Helps His Sister?

Jiang Guoli looked at Hu Yuezhen with an expression of disbelief, as if he were looking at a lunatic.

"Do you have any idea what your two nieces look like? Big hands, big feet, rough skin, triangular eyes, and a garlic-nose. Are you trying to arrange a marriage or start a feud?"

Previously, his eldest daughter-in-law had suggested introducing her two nieces to his youngest son. Although the family relationships were somewhat tangled, Jiang Guoli thought it might be beneficial to make connections, so he let his eldest daughter-in-law invite the two girls over.

However, upon first sight, he found them so unappealing that he didn’t even let his youngest son see them and quickly sent them away, fearing his son might think he was deliberately trying to repulse or humiliate him.

"Dad, you can’t say that! When choosing a wife, it’s not just about looks. Su Xiaoxiao, for example, can’t even wash clothes or prepare bathwater without help from my third brother-in-law," Hu Yuezhen said bitterly.

Although she had never dared to peep into Su Xiaoxiao’s family affairs, she had occasionally overheard snippets of conversations between the third brother-in-law and her stepmother-in-law while standing by the wall. Each time she heard about how they did everything for Su Xiaoxiao and were always looking for ways to provide her with delicious food or new clothes, she felt an intense jealousy.

Since the second son had died and his wife had been arrested and would be executed after the New Year, the two children from the second son’s family were now under her care. The girl was manageable, but the boy was a troublemaker who constantly fought with her son over things. Moreover, Father-in-law was reluctant to scold or punish him, which made her life very difficult.

Jiang Guoli, who was already displeased with Jiang Yexun, grew even more annoyed upon hearing Hu Yuezhen’s complaints. However, he knew he could do nothing about his youngest son, which only added to his frustration.

Jiang Guoli glared at Hu Yuezhen with anger and then ordered, "How the young couple lives their life has nothing to do with you. Your job is to take care of my four grandchildren. Next year, have the two girls cut pigweed every day to earn two work points each. That should be enough for their food."

Hu Yuezhen was pleased with the idea of the girls earning work points, as she relied solely on her son for her old age. She thought that once the girls turned sixteen and married off, she could use the bride price to help her son marry.

Jiang Guoli, seeing her thoughtful expression, warned, "Remember, don’t bring your two nieces here. Xiaoxiao’s brother is not suited for them. If you dare to cause trouble, you’ll be sent back to your own family."

Hu Yuezhen was startled by the threat but remained stubborn, still thinking about Su Hongchen’s impressive demeanor.

"Dad, it’s not like that. Even though my two nieces aren’t good-looking, they are excellent workers both inside and outside the home. Xiaoxiao’s brother is always in the army, and Xiaoxiao is in our team. His family has no one to care for them, so he needs a wife who can help take care of his parents. Besides, Xiaoxiao said her brother is a platoon leader. A platoon leader’s wife can’t follow him, so he must at least be a company commander."

She had heard that a platoon leader’s monthly salary was over seventy yuan, and since Su Xiaoxiao’s brother was a platoon leader at his age, he must be quite capable and earn bonuses from missions. Though she didn’t know the exact amount of the bonus, it was certainly substantial. If her nieces married Su Xiaoxiao’s brother, his salary and bonuses would be sent back to support his wife. She wouldn’t ask for much—just five yuan a month, plus some rare tickets as a mediator’s reward, and twenty yuan for her own family so they wouldn’t have to worry about marrying off the girls.

Jiang Guoli’s face grew darker as he listened to Hu Yuezhen’s words.

"Hu Yuezhen, you’re married into our Jiang family now, and you’re one of us. Do you think only your family has daughters? Our Jiang family has daughters too, and they are much more beautiful than yours. If you dare to bring your nieces here to compete with our Jiang family’s girls, I’ll immediately have the eldest son divorce you," he threatened through gritted teeth.

Hu Yuezhen was stunned, unable to believe that her father-in-law had the same intention as she did.

"Do you understand?" Jiang Guoli demanded more harshly when Hu Yuezhen didn’t respond immediately.

Hu Yuezhen quickly nodded, "I understand, I understand."

Although she agreed verbally, she was deeply dissatisfied inside. She thought that even if her nieces married Su Xiaoxiao’s brother, it wouldn’t benefit her family much. She planned to discuss her calculations with Quankun later, as Quankun would not divorce her if they could get tangible benefits.

Both of them were eager to notify their families and figure out their next steps. However, before they could leave, the village broadcast sounded through the cold wind.

"Attention all comrades of the Hong Feng Production Team, stop your work immediately and come to the Grain-Sunning Ground. The meeting will be held in ten minutes. No one is allowed to be late."

Leader Chen’s voice came through the loudspeaker, carrying over the wind.

Jiang Guoli, hearing this, felt an indescribable emotion. He used to be the one to make such announcements, but now he felt out of touch with the happenings in the production team. Realizing it was all due to Su Xiaoxiao, Jiang Guoli gritted his teeth in anger.

She always bragged about having a platoon leader brother. Once her brother married one of the Jiang family’s daughters, he wanted to see what she would be proud of. No man would prioritize his sister over his wife.

Feeling a sense of satisfaction in his heart, Jiang Guoli hurried towards the Grain-Sunning Ground.

As many people lived closer to the meeting place, by the time they arrived, a considerable number of people were already there. When they saw Jiang Guoli, their expressions turned awkward.

After all, this was the first formal meeting since the change of production team leaders. Some people tried to greet Jiang Guoli but, when they almost called him "Team Leader Jiang," quickly swallowed their words. Feeling uncomfortable, they decided to ignore Jiang Guoli altogether.
