Chapter 1040: Fortunately, She Didn't Soften Her Heart
Before Chuxue's wedding, Xiao Fu specifically went to find Fu's father and mother to tell them about the things that had happened in the family before.
It was also agreed that on the day of Chuxue's wedding, the Xiao family would host the guests, but all matters inside Chuxue's bridal room would be handled by colleagues from the factory who got along well with her.
Fu's father and mother knew about the Xiao family's situation, so naturally they had no objections.
On May 1st, before dawn, she was pulled up by her good friend Duan Ruirui and her cousin Du Juan; after washing up, she put on light makeup, then wore the black trousers and red shirt she had specially made for the wedding, paired with a pair of half-heeled leather shoes; that graceful, upright figure left the two of them completely stunned.
Duan Ruirui hugged Chuxue's arm and coquettishly said, "Chuxue, on the day I get married, you must help me put on makeup that looks just as good."
Sister Jiang, who had just come in from outside, teased, "Really, no sense of shame."
Duan Ruirui stuck out her tongue: "Which bride doesn't wish to look beautiful? I'm no exception."
Because of her good relationship with Chuxue, she had gradually become familiar with Duan Ruirui and Du Juan.
Seeing Du Juan over there covering her mouth and giggling, she thought of the matter her own eldest sister-in-law had entrusted to her not long ago regarding finding a match for her nephew: "Du Juan, you're about the same age as them; today your elder sister is getting married, and in a few days that girl Ruirui will be getting married too; what about you? Do you want Sister Jiang to introduce someone to you?"
Hearing these words, Du Juan's face immediately turned red, and she waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "I'm still young; there's no rush."
That little expression made everyone in the room laugh.
Du Juan refused so decisively because the person who was about to develop into a partner had scared her; originally, she had thought that since the person worked in the technical section and looked refined and gentle, she might as well try getting to know him.
But she didn't expect that the next day his widowed mother came to the door, sizing him up with her triangular eyes from top to bottom as if looking at merchandise; the moment she opened her mouth, it was about marrying in to support her husband and raise children, to expand the family branches, and to treat two sisters-in-law well.
Du Juan had heard Chuxue talk about principles of right and wrong many times; frightened, the next day she told the man from the technical section that the two of them were not suitable.
That man had been quite attentive to Du Juan; he didn't expect that just after confirming the relationship and before announcing it outwardly, the other party would regret it the very next day.
After learning that his own mother had caused the trouble, he wanted to turn on her, but thinking of how she had raised him with great hardship, in the end he only handled it lightly.
After that, the man still sought her out several times, but Du Juan gave that person no chance.
Fortunately, she hadn't softened her heart; after the two completely separated, the man's two older sisters came to the door; at first they came to apologize on behalf of their mother, but later, seeing that Chuxue showed not the slightest sign of changing her mind, they directly opened their mouths and cursed her as a troublemaker who had caused her younger brother to stop eating and drinking recently, and a few days ago in the workshop, because of distraction, he had almost hurt himself.
After the two sisters learned the full story of the matter, they went to find Du Juan.
The sense of superiority in their words, and when in the end they saw that Du Juan had no room for compromise at all, they even lost their previous good attitude; they even said she was just an orphan girl, and if it weren't for her younger brother liking her, she wouldn't have had the qualification to marry in, which made Du Juan even more determined that in the future, whenever she saw that man, she would keep as far away as possible.
Although that man's conditions were quite good, she didn't want to marry into a place where three big mountains would press down on her head in the future.
Since then, she truly had not the slightest romantic thought about that man.
Seeing the little girl's expression change so cutely on her face, Sister Jiang said, "Du Juan, I was preparing to introduce you to my younger nephew; that boy is tall and broad, and he's super righteous; nowadays he's a police officer at a local police station; do you really not consider it?"
