He Shengnan's husband is not in the Provincial City, but in the Earth-level city under their County.
However, this city is not very far from the Provincial City.
After He Shengnan got married, although she no longer continued to help her brother take care of his niece, she didn't sever contact with her brother.
For over thirty years, He Shengnan often resented her parents for favoring sons over daughters, but unconsciously, she also accepted the idea of "having a brother in the maternal family, one's back is reliable."
Especially since her brother isn't one of those lazy, parasitic types; both he and his wife are public officials.
After nearly twenty years of hard work, her brother even became a minor leader at their unit.
He's not a big shot who calls the shots, but he does hold some real power.
He Shengnan's husband is in business, and at times, he really needs the care of He Shengli.
... Thus, there are many reasons why He Shengnan was able to marry her "patron."
