A beautiful and wealthy woman from the 21st century becomes a handsome young educated youth in the 1970s. Framed by her hypocritical best friend and sent to the countryside, she relies on her golde...
"Xiazi is coming to stay at our house tomorrow and will sleep in the same room as me."
After I got married to Qingbai, she moved in with us to my second uncle's house.
Hao Caiyun nodded and asked her daughter.
"Mengmeng, what are your plans?"
"Meng Ge'er should just follow Qing Bai Ge and let him arrange things."
Zhuang Xingzhou also asked his daughter.
"How are you going to pick them up tomorrow?"
“I’m driving; we borrowed my second uncle’s car.”
Hao Caiyun was a little worried and gave her daughter some instructions.
"Then you must be careful while driving!"
Before Zhuang Zhimeng could speak, Zhuang Xingzhou laughed.
"Hehe, Caiyun, our daughter drives even better than me!"
Hao Caiyun looked at her daughter.
Is it true?
Zhuang Zhimeng nodded with a smile.
"Mom, don't worry, I'm fine driving."
"Wow! My precious baby is amazing, he can even drive a car well."
When Xingzhou goes back to burn paper money for his ancestors, he should burn extra for them; our ancestors must be emitting auspicious smoke now.
The mother's words made both the father and daughter laugh.
"Haha, I'll listen to you. When you burn paper money, burn more for the ancestors."
"Haha, Mom, should I burn some paper money for our ancestors too?"
Hao Caiyun waved her hand.
"You don't need to, you're still young. Let your dad burn it."
Zhuang Xingzhou echoed.
"Yes, I'll burn it."
Moreover, burning paper money openly is no longer allowed; people have to burn it secretly.
I'll go back and pray to our ancestors, asking them to protect our family.
"Alright, then you should talk to your ancestors about it more often."
"Hmm, I'll go and tell my ancestors when I remember."
"Haha, don't let your ancestors bother you later."
"Haha, that's exactly what I wanted—to annoy them."
Then you'll have to agree, otherwise they'll get fed up with me constantly bothering them.
Zhuang Zhimeng smiled, feeling worried for her ancestors. She figured they would be in for a lot of trouble from their descendants in the future.
Zhuang Zhimeng got up very early in the morning.
After getting ready and having breakfast, I slung my bag over my shoulder and headed to Uncle Qingbai's house.
An Qingbai was overjoyed to see his fiancée.
"Zhizhi, you're here! Have you had breakfast?"
"I've eaten, Qingbai, have you eaten?"
"I've already eaten. Come on, I'll take you to the parking lot."
"Alright, it's about time, we should set off."
Shi Meiling, An Tanxiao, and An Tanli happened to be in the courtyard.
Zhuang Zhimeng offered New Year's greetings to the three elders.
"Happy New Year, Auntie! Happy New Year, Uncle! Happy New Year, Second Uncle!"
Shi Meiling took out a red envelope from her pocket and handed it to her daughter-in-law.
"Happy New Year to you, Zhimeng! Here's a red envelope for you."
In just two more days, I've been waiting so long to hear Zhimeng call me "Mom." Finally, I'll hear it!
Zhuang Zhimeng accepted it with both hands.
"Hehe, thank you, Auntie."
An Tanxiao also took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it over.
"Zhimeng, Uncle will also give you a red envelope. I've been looking forward to it!"
"Thank you, Uncle."
An Tanli laughed.
"Hehe, you guys are making it seem like I can't refuse to give my niece-in-law a red envelope, are you?"
As he spoke, he took out a red envelope that he had prepared for his nephew's wife.
"Zhimeng, this is from your second uncle, you must accept it!"
Zhuang Zhimeng hesitated for a moment before accepting.
Shi Meiling smiled, took the red envelope from her second brother, and placed it directly into her daughter-in-law's hands.
“Take it. Your second uncle is no stranger. This is a token of his appreciation. He will feel uncomfortable if you don’t accept it.”
Zhuang Zhimeng then accepted it without further hesitation.
"Thank you, Second Uncle."
"Oh, aren't you going to pick someone up? The car's over there, go drive it!"
"Okay, Auntie, Uncle, Second Uncle, let's go to the train station first."
Zhuang Zhimeng said goodbye to her elders before turning to go to the parking spot.
An Qingbai handed the car keys to his fiancée.
"Zhizhi, here are your car keys. I feel like you'll look really cool driving this."
"Hehe, then take a good look around, let's go."
Zhuang Zhimeng sat in the driver's seat, and An Qingbai sat in the passenger seat.
The car started moving and drove smoothly out of the yard.
An Tanli kept watching until the car drove away before looking at his fourth brother and sister-in-law.
"Zhimeng is really something else!"
She drives like a pro, very steady and composed. You've really struck gold!
"Haha, second brother, we've always thought that third brother is really lucky."
The wife I found is absolutely wonderful.
An Tanxiao responded in unison with his wife.
"That's right, Zhi Meng seems to have many shining qualities, mainly because the third brother is lucky."
An Tanli sighed suddenly as he listened.
"Sigh! I don't know when my two sons will find wives."
None of them seem to be in a hurry, but I'm worried for them.
An Tanxiao comforted his second brother.
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings; when the time is right, they will naturally know to find a wife."
"Hmm, I'll have to urge them later, otherwise who knows when fate will bring them together?"
An Tanxiao felt a pang of worry for his two nephews, guessing that their single lives were about to end.
Zhuang Zhimeng was driving, and An Qingbai kept his eyes on his fiancée.
"Honey, you drive so cool!"
"Hehe, it's alright!"
"I'll learn to drive sometime, and I'd like to let you drive."
"Okay, we'll see how it goes. If you have the chance, then go and learn it."
"Yes, I must learn to drive."
Zhuang Zhimeng nodded. Having goals is a good thing.
"By the way, my family gave you red envelopes yesterday. They're in my bag. Qingbai, you can take them out."
