Eating Melons and Watching the Show in a Chronicles Novel

As a member of the working class, Lin Jingyu, a cargo registrar at a port, transmigrated to the early 1970s during her lunch break.

She unexpectedly discovered that she had entered a chronicl...

Chapter 425 Complaints and Disdain!

Starting today.

They are both college students.

The National University of Singapore (NUS) had just resumed the National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao), so there weren't many

Having experienced the benefits enjoyed by college students during this period, Lin Jingyu couldn't help but exclaim how good the treatment of college students was.

Not only are meals and accommodation provided, but there are also allowances and various daily necessities.

It doesn't look like he's studying at all; it looks like he's a civil servant.

And then think about the college students of the new century...

Lin Jingyu and Peng Shiyu were classmates, so they started living, eating, and studying together again.

February 1st.

The two of them specifically asked for two days off.

Go home to get engaged.

Although it had only been a short time since the start of the semester, the teacher did not make things difficult for the students.

People at that time didn't have many fancy ways of getting engaged.

It was simply a meeting between the two families.

It's just inviting familiar people over for a meal.

Although Lin Jingyu and Peng Qibo kept the event simple, quite a few people attended.

Eight tables are needed to seat everyone.

It mainly consists of Li Moyu leading Qiu's disciples from various sects.

These people work in the capital, but they can't interact with other people.

Therefore, they only associate with people within their own circle.

That's why they accepted Lin Jingyu's appearance so easily.

It can be said that they only recognize disciples of their sect, and will keep their distance from others regardless of their status.

"Little aunt, your eyesight is terrible."

"That's right, that's right, I think Aunt Lin's boyfriend is not good enough for you."

"Aunt Lin, are you blind? We have plenty of talented young disciples from all the sects, why did you choose a rough man?"

"Aside from being a little good-looking, Peng Qibo doesn't have any other merits."

"I suggest you just cancel today's engagement, Aunt Lin, and pick someone better."

"Junior Sister, how does your sect vet your partner? It seems a bit casual, don't you all think?"

"You've got some nerve, daring to marry our junior aunt. Aren't you afraid of being tortured to pieces by us later?"

...

These guys are not only incredibly friendly, they treat me like family.

He launched into a tirade of complaints and disdain for Peng Qibo.

Lin Jingyu was so amused that she bent over laughing.

Peng Shiyu, Zhang Wenxi, and others laughed gleefully.

Peng Qibo, the person involved, looked helpless and said he couldn't do anything about these people.

No matter what.

The engagement banquet went smoothly.

After seeing the guests off.

Peng Qibo took her for a walk.

"This is so unfair."

Thinking about what happened today, Peng Qibo looked at her with resentment, "Am I really that bad? Nobody wants me?"

"Not bad, not bad."

Lin Jingyu replied with a smile, "It doesn't matter if they don't like you, as long as I like you."

"This shows that these people have no vision."

Peng Qibo pulled her forward, saying, "If they want to cause me trouble, I'll never give them the chance in this lifetime."

"Then let's see if you can keep your word."

Lin Jingyu raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Don't underestimate me. Maybe I can beat you to a pulp without them."

"Don't be so fierce, okay?"

Peng Qibo's smile deepened. "I know you're very capable. I hope you'll give me some face in public, but once we're home, you can do whatever you want."

"It depends on your performance."

Lin Jingyu smiled and said, "Wanting to save face is fine, but it depends on whether you know what's good for you."

"I'll definitely be sensible and will listen to you from now on."

"I don't believe what you say. I want to see your expression. Don't disappoint me."

"Definitely not."

...

The two walked and talked, cherishing their time together.

Tomorrow the two of them will go their separate ways.

I don't know when we'll be able to meet again.

The Peng family.

"Dad, I never expected that Jingyu would become a formal disciple of the Emei Sect."

Peng Fengyi exclaimed in surprise, "And all those people came to today's engagement banquet. I remember it's not easy for anyone to invite them to a meal."

They never give anyone face.

It's incredible that so many people showed up today.

"I was surprised too."

Grandpa Peng was overjoyed. "You could say that Jingyu has given us a huge surprise."

Countless young men have tried to marry the female disciples of those sects, but none have succeeded.

Our family never planned this, but this unexpected joy has come as a surprise.

"Dad, what's so good about those people?"

Fang Shuning's expression was rather unpleasant.

She clearly remembered the disdain those people had for her son.

Lin Jingyu, that girl, didn't care about her son's feelings at all, letting those people tease him.

If she hadn't been restrained by reason, she would have turned around and left on the spot.

At this moment, she disliked Lin Jingyu, her prospective daughter-in-law, from the bottom of her heart.

So his tone was somewhat unfriendly, "Everyone knows they never provoke anyone, let alone help anyone; they only care about their own people."

Even if Lin Jingyu becomes part of their circle, she might not take care of us.

Why should we care about them?

"Is this your idea?"

Master Peng put away his smile and stared intently at his eldest daughter-in-law. "If you can't see through what's going on, then shut your mouth and don't say anything."

Starting today.

You are not allowed to interfere in anything between Jingyu and Qibo.

"dad!"

Fang Shuning's face turned red with anger. "Didn't you hear what those people said? Their disdain for Bo'er is tantamount to looking down on our Peng family."

Why should we put up with their mistreatment?

“My Peng family is willing to put up with their mistreatment.”
