“You’re Zuo Huo’s girlfriend, right? You look quite exquisite.”

Song Yao stood up and said, “Hello, Uncle. My name is Song Yao. You can call me Yao.”

“Yao, take a seat! How can we let the guest stand?” Zuo Jie asked Song Yao to sit down while sizing up Song Yao’s actions.

Not bad. She was a nice lady who knew how to be polite. It would be even better if she hadn’t been married.

Unlike Zuo Jie’s enthusiasm, Guan Rong stared at Song Yao. She felt that she was not the kind of traditional woman who would stay at home and take care of her husband and children.

“What do you do now?” Guan Rong asked. Her tone still carried the deterrence that a leader should have.

Song Yao pinched her thigh and told herself not to show her fear at this time.

“Auntie, I’m a self-employed person.”

“So you’re a small merchant?” Guan Rong pursed her lips. It was obvious that she was not very satisfied with Song Yao’s work.

This was not Guan Rong’s fault. After all, the concept of scholars, farmers, and industries was deeply ingrained in the minds of rich children like them.

Even if it was a marriage, they would choose a family of equal social status. At the very least, they would marry the daughter of a professor and teacher. After all, she was from a scholarly family. They would not be able to come into contact with small vendors like Song Yao who walked the streets.

“What’s wrong with a small vendor? The working people are the most glorious!” Zuo Jie said.

Other than the fact that Song Yao had been married, he didn’t mind much.

After all, one had to live a lifetime after getting married. Although it was important for a couple of equal social status to be compatible, not every couple of equal social status could grow old together.

He smiled and asked Song Yao, “Daughter, what are you selling?”

Song Yao said, “I sell everything. For example, I collect mountain goods, chestnuts, open a small shop, and occasionally send lunch boxes to the school.”

“She’s so capable? She should have made a lot of money in one year, right?” Zuo Jie was a little surprised. He did not expect a soft and weak-looking girl to be able to do so much work.

“It’s alright…” Song Yao paused for a moment and said, “At least it’s enough to cover our daily expenses.”

Zuo Jie smiled when he heard that.

Support herself? Not bad! She’s a capable young lady!

Guan Rong sneered. “I remember that you’re not old. You seem to be a little younger than Little Huo. You probably stopped studying a long time ago, right?”

It was one thing for her to be a self-employed person, but she had become a divorcee at such a young age and even had a child. She was not cultured! How could her son like such a person?

“In my opinion, earning money for young people is secondary. What’s important is that you have to study more. Live until you’re old and learn until you’re old. In terms of academic qualifications…”

Zuo Huo interrupted Guan Rong and took out the report card. “Yao is studying at Sangqiu City’s No. 1 Middle School. She scored 710 points ir this exam!”

Song Yao had come to the capital to discuss marriage, not to be bullied!

Zuo Jie and Guan Rong were dumbfounded.

“710 points? How can there be such a good student in a small school in Sangqiu City?” The moment she received the report card, Guan Rong was still in disbelief.

Even Zuo Jie was dumbfounded. He adjusted his presbyopic glasses and flipped through a few papers repeatedly. “You said you got these results?”

Song Yao said, “Yes, my name is written on it.”

Zuo Jie took another look and confirmed that it was Song Yao’s report card.

However, Sang Qiu City was only a second-tier city that was not very developed. How could it nurture such an outstanding student?!

Moreover, from what Zuo Huo said just now, Song Yao was a school drop-out? How did she get such results?

Not only Zuo Jie, even Guan Rong was dumbfounded.

She never expected Song Yao to be a prospective university student, and her results were so outstanding!

Guan Rong smiled and her attitude towards Song Yao took a

180-degree turn. “Which university do you want to go to in the future?”

Song Yao replied, “Auntie, I want to study in Qingbei.”

Qingbei University! That was the top school in the country!

If Song Yao really got into Qingbei, she would be a top student! At that time, not only would she be able to get rid of her rural household registration, but she would also not have to worry about finding a job before graduating. Not only in China, but even overseas would fight for talents!

Guan Rong felt excited just thinking about it! She glanced at Song Yao’s paper again..
