Rebirth of a Village Girl novel Chapter 342

Chapter 342: 110: Grand Opening, Li Yanran’s Invitation_3

Zhou Xiaolian continued, “It’s not an issue with the women per se, but entirely with that girl Ni Yang. I believe Ni Yang hasn’t even talked to her mother about this! Plus, I wouldn’t introduce her to my brother if she couldn’t earn some money in a month.”

Besides considering her elder brother’s interest, Zhou Xiaolian had her own ulterior motives. After all, everyone is inherently selfish.

She coveted Ni Yang’s recipe.

The recipe for Pickled Fish Noodles and milk tea.

Once her brother marries Ni Cuihua, she and Ni Yang would become part of the same family, and naturally, there would be no secrets.

Once she has the recipes for Pickled Fish and milk tea, she would just need to sit at home and collect money.

“Alright, enough with the nonsense!” Li Yinsheng said impatiently, “Your brother isn’t lacking in potential brides. Why are you so concerned for him?”

“I’m his sister; how can I not worry?” Zhou Xiaolian glared at Li Yinsheng, “I need to go to my mother! And you stay here and look after the shop!”

Li Yinsheng could only shake his head helplessly.

Zhou Xiaolian went straight back to her parents’ house.

Her family was well-off. Both her parents were retired directors of a factory. Although her only brother was devoid of a wife, he had a good job, a dependable livelihood, a high salary, and often had some extra perks.

This was why so many eligible women were willing to marry him.

After hearing Zhou Xiaolian’s plan, her mother, Ji Mudan, fussed, “What kind of joke is this? There are so many young ladies ready to marry your brother, and he doesn’t need them. You’re introducing a widow with two children to him. Xiaolian, don’t you care about your brother anymore?”

Given that her son was accomplished, Ji Mudan, as a mother, felt proud. Moreover, they came from a family of salaried employees; how could they marry a self-employed woman!

Zhou Xiaolian smiled and said, “Mom, don’t look down on self-employed people. The woman I want to introduce to my brother owns four shops. She earns at least 20,000 yuan a month. When combined, your, dad’s, and brother’s income is still less than what she earns in a month, isn’t it?”

20,000! That’s over 200,000 a year!

Ji Mudan was a bit shocked but still retorted, “What does it matter how much money she earns? Our family doesn’t lack money.”

While the Zhou family was not immensely rich, they were not short of money either.

Zhou Xiaolian continued, “With more money, future kids could study abroad, we could move to a bigger house, hire a few nannies to serve you. Doesn’t that sound good?”

Ji Mudan seemed slightly tempted at this, “What you said seems somewhat reasonable! What does this woman look like?”

Zhou Xiaolian responded, “Her looks leave nothing to be desired. How about you come with me tomorrow and see for yourself?”
