Chapter 445 The Greedy Little Country Girl 25
"Cang Cang, do you want to study here or go to the capital?" Pei Jingche thought for a while, "It's better to go to the capital, the schools there are better."
Cheng Qinji wanted to vomit blood. How could Pei Jingche interrupt him? It was clearly he who first suggested that Cang Cang go to the capital.
Shen Weicang put his hand on his chin: "Want to trick me into going to your territory? I'm not that stupid."
"Is it that easy to go to school in Beijing? I don't know anyone in Beijing. Where will I live? Who will take care of me for food, clothing and other necessities?"
Pei Jingche sat next to her on the long bench: "It may be a little troublesome to go through the formalities, but it is not unsolvable."
"As for food, clothing, housing and transportation, don't worry, I can arrange it for you."
Shen Weicang looked at him doubtfully: "You don't want me to live in your house, do you?"
Pei Jingche's eyes were gentle: "Of course you can live in my house, there will be someone to take care of you, you don't have to worry about anything."
Shen Weicang slapped him on the back of his hand lightly:
"No, I won't. We haven't gotten married yet. What's the point of living in your house? By then, all your neighbors will know that I'm your partner, and you'll urge me to get married, right?"
Cheng Qinji finally found an opportunity: "That's right, Cangcang, don't be fooled by him, he is very calculating."
Pei Jingche glanced at him lightly, and when his eyes met, Cheng Qinji immediately wanted to hide, gritting his teeth and snorting.
"If I urge you to get married, will you agree?" Pei Jingche looked at Shen Weicang again, somewhat amused.
Shen Weicang didn't even think about it: "You wish, it's not that easy to marry me!"
Pei Jingche kept smiling: "That's right, don't worry, I said there is a way to solve it, and it will definitely satisfy you."
Zhou Jinjun had a complicated expression: "Cangcang, have you made up your mind to go to the capital?"
Shen Weicang nodded: "I want to go and take a look."
Pei Jingche was overjoyed. He saw that Zhou Jinjun and his wife were worried, so he said seriously, "Uncle and aunt, why don't you come with us? I'll arrange a place for you to stay."
The two immediately shook their heads: "Is that reasonable?"
Not to mention that Cang Cang was going to school. Even if he really got married in Beijing, it would be ridiculous for him to bring his whole family to the city.
Pei Jingche didn't think it was a big deal: "You are Cang Cang's elders. When she goes to study in the capital, if she misses you, you can stay by her side and take care of her."
His words completely put Shen Weicang at the center, and in his opinion, Zhou Jinjun and the other man went into the city just to take care of Shen Weicang and calm her down.
Zhou Jinjun and Shi Cuiyun didn't think there was anything wrong. Shi Cuiyun couldn't help laughing: "She's already 18 years old, a grown-up girl. How can she stay with us forever? That would tie the child down."
She didn't say anything more: "If she wants to go out, let her go. She will have to get married and live with someone else for the rest of her life. We can't take care of her for the rest of her life. Let her go and try her luck."
Shen Weicang seemed not to be able to hear her sadness, and stuffed a piece of cake brought by Pei Jingche into her hand:
"Jinzi, it's too early for you to think about my marriage now. I've asked Professor Zhu. High school takes two or three years, and college also takes several years."
Shi Cuiyun looked at her with a bit of doting and helplessness in her eyes, and couldn't help but raise her finger and tap her forehead: "Are you so confident that you can get into high school and even college?"
Shen Weicang picked up a piece of cake and put it into his mouth: "Of course, Professor Zhu praised me for being smart."
Pei Jingche teased her deliberately: "It doesn't matter, you can get married while you're in college, it won't delay anything."
"That's not necessarily true," Cheng Qinji interrupted sourly, "When Cang Cang enters university, he will be surrounded by promising young people. Who will still be interested in you?"
He gave Shen Weicang a serious suggestion: "Cangcang, don't agree to get married easily. Be more selective when the time comes."
Pei Jingche smiled wryly: "I think you are old enough to find a partner. When we return to the capital, I will ask my mother to introduce you to a few more people. Don't let yourself become an old bachelor and no one will be interested in you and you will never be able to find a wife in your life."
It doesn’t matter if Cang Cang and him don’t get married, as long as Cheng Qinji gets married.
Cheng Qinji was a little anxious: "Pei Jingche, why are you like this? It's a new era and a new society, and you're still doing things like arranging marriages and forcing people to buy and sell. You're too domineering and bullying!"
Although he is very much loved in the Cheng family, the Cheng family will not completely follow his temper on major matters.
Just like when he wanted to join the army, no matter how much he made a fuss, Old Man Cheng just refused to agree.
If Pei Jingche really wanted to mention his marriage to his family, and the Cheng family was really concerned, even if he could trouble the elders, he would probably have no chance to get close to Cangcang.
Pei Jingche snorted: "If you don't have the ability, just say less and don't be a villain who stirs up trouble between us."
Cheng Qinji was so angry that her breathing was a little difficult, the corners of her eyes were slightly red, and she looked like she was about to cry.
The three parties involved didn't think anything of it, but Zhou Jinjun and Shi Cuiyun were a little at a loss, and quickly sent them out: "Cang Cang, aren't you still thinking about going shopping in the department store?"
Shi Cuiyun went into the house, got out some money and tickets, and stuffed them into her hands: "Go and have some fun with Jing Che. You're about to go out, so you might as well buy some things on the way."
She was a little embarrassed. This was all her family could give Cang Cang. They couldn't afford the train ticket and the expenses after going to the capital.
The family depended on a few acres of land for their livelihood. The Zhou family was small and the land they were allocated was also small. After deducting the public grain tax they paid, they could not save much.
Shen Weicang did not refuse and accepted it with a bit of sadness on his face.
Sensing that she was in a bad mood and walked out of the yard, Cheng Qinji no longer argued with Pei Jingche about whose car she should take. She watched her get into Pei Jingche's car, turned around and got in and followed him.
"Cangcang, Auntie is also worried about you," Pei Jingche naturally saw the reason for Shen Weicang's depression, and advised softly, "If you don't accept this money, they will always miss it in their hearts."
Shen Weicang lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "I know, but I still feel sad. Jing Che, they are so good to me, and I am so old and still let them worry about spending money."
Pei Jingche steered with one hand and reached out with his right hand to hold her hand: "After a while, I will find someone to help uncle and aunt do some small business in the county. Don't worry, life will get better and better."
Shen Weicang's lips curled up, and when he raised his face, he was full of surprise: "Jing Che, what did you say? You want to help my uncle do business?"
Her mouth opened wide, as if she had never expected him to say that, and she didn't even realize that he was holding her hand: "Is this... is this okay?"
Pei Jingche smiled warmly and squeezed her hand to encourage her:
"Why not? Now many people are trying to do some small business by taking advantage of the favorable situation. Some have already started to make money. When the time comes, ask uncle what kind of business you want to do, and I will help you make the connection."
Shen Weicang was quite satisfied with what she heard. She was going to the capital, and no matter who she married in the future, she had to have her own support.
Pei Jingche was quite sensible. He knew how to help her solve her problems as long as she pretended to do so.
"If my uncle and his family become successful in business, will they be able to go to the capital in the future?"
Shen Weicang began to look forward to his future life, and he lashed out at Pei Jingche implicitly: "If I get married in the capital, my parents' home will be closer to me!"
