Jiang Zhizhi could only try to find ways to refuse.

"Well... my sister and Gu Pingwei haven't had their wedding yet, so it might not be appropriate to ask her boyfriend for help at this time."

"What's inappropriate about it? I've heard that everyone in the Gu family is very satisfied with your sister, and their marriage is a done deal."

"Besides, giving this spot to someone is just a matter of a word for the Gu family. It's not a particularly difficult thing. As long as your sister asks, they will definitely give her face."

"I……"

Jiang Zhizhi hesitated, unsure of what reason to give for refusing.

Chen Yuyan could tell from her expression that she didn't really want to help him.

His expression immediately turned cold.

"Jiang Zhizhi, I was just thinking about our future, but I didn't expect you wouldn't even help with this small thing!"

"Why did I work so hard to get this spot? Wasn't it so I could go back to the city to work, marry you in style, and bring you to live in the big city? Do you want to stay in a remote and backward rural area for the rest of your life? To work in the fields from dawn till dusk?"

"It seems you never intended to be with me properly, so let's break up now!"

After saying this, Chen Yuyan turned around and was about to leave.

Jiang Zhizhi quickly pulled him back.

"Chen Zhiqing! Don't go! That's not what I meant!"

For women living in the countryside, it's not easy to marry into a wealthy family.

Jiang Zhizhi's single-minded pursuit of getting close to Chen Zhiqing was nothing more than hoping to have the opportunity to live in the city with him.

Now, it's a bit embarrassing to ask Jiang Jingxue for help with this spot to return to the city...

However, compared to the consequences of breaking up with Chen Zhiqing, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and give it a try.

"I... I didn't say I wouldn't help you. I'll go to my sister's place and ask when I have some free time..."

Seeing that Jiang Zhizhi had agreed, Chen Yuyan's expression softened a bit.

He took Jiang Zhizhi's hand again.

"Zhizhi, then you'll have to work hard. Just think of it as doing this for our future, and you must fight for this spot!"

Jiang Zhizhi forced a smile and agreed, "Okay."

After finishing her date with Chen Yuyan and returning home, Jiang Zhizhi looked dejected and her expression was not good.

Yao Guilan was fully aware of the private relationship between Jiang Zhizhi and Chen Yuyan.

Seeing Jiang Zhizhi's expression, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, girl? Did you have a fight with Chen Zhiqing?"

"We didn't argue!"

Jiang Zhizhi was somewhat upset.

"He told me to go find Jiang Jingxue and pull some strings with the Gu family to get him a spot for educated youth to return to the city."

“That bitch Jiang Jingxue is like a completely different person now. She can’t wait to never see us again. How could she possibly help us?”

Yao Guilan was well aware that this matter was very difficult.

"Are you stupid?! You knew Jiang Jingxue was unreliable, so why did you agree to it?"

"I had no choice but to agree! He said that if I didn't help him, I wasn't sincere and wanted to break up with me! I was forced to agree!"

"Mom, come with me to see Jiang Jingxue again! Let's plead with her together, and maybe she'll do it for the sake of our family."

"Mom, you also hope that I can marry Chen Zhiqing in a grand and glorious way, right?"

Having already suffered a great embarrassment last time, Yao Guilan did not want to suffer another.

She was especially afraid of Jiang Jingxue's future mother-in-law.

After one visit, she was forced to sign an agreement, which resulted in her losing a significant portion of her dowry.

If she goes again this time, who knows what kind of pitfalls await her!

"You go by yourself, I'm not going."

Yao Guilan pretended to have a headache, supporting her head with her hands.

"I'm getting old, and my health hasn't been good lately. I get headaches all the time, and my body can't handle such a long journey."

Jiang Zhizhi isn't stupid.

She immediately understood what Yao Guilan meant and became quite angry.

"Mom, am I still your daughter? Even you won't help me?"

"Anyway, if I don't go, Chen Zhiqing will break up with me, and I'll only be able to marry a rough man in the village. I might as well just die!"

Jiang Zhizhi wiped away her tears and was about to run outside.

Seeing this, Yao Guilan panicked a bit and quickly pulled Jiang Zhizhi back.

"Go, I'll go with you! Zhizhi, please don't do anything foolish!"

The eldest daughter, Jiang Jingxue, has become an ungrateful wretch and may not be reliable in the future. If the second daughter also commits suicide, what will she do for the rest of her life? She won't even have anyone to take care of her in her old age.

"Mom, hurry up and borrow some money. We'll also send some dowry to Jiang Jingxue so it'll be easier to ask her for help."

“If you go empty-handed, it will seem like you're not sincere, and she definitely won't help you.”

"This...this is so late at night, where am I supposed to borrow money?"

Yao Guilan looked worried.

"Then let's find a way to borrow it! Mom, you can't just stand by and watch me break up with Chen Zhiqing, can you?"

Under Jiang Zhizhi's half-threat and half-pleading, Yao Guilan had no choice but to go out in the middle of the night to borrow money.

the next day.

Jiang Jingxue suddenly received a call from Yao Guilan.

That's really a strange thing.

This was the first time she had received a call from home after being here for so long.

"Is there something you need?"

Jiang Jingxue's attitude was very perfunctory.

"Jingxue, I'm going to visit you tomorrow. I've already bought the ticket. Please remember to have someone pick me up."

Jiang Jingxue raised her eyebrows slightly.

She bought the tickets to come here without giving any advance notice, and her intuition told her that it wasn't that simple.

"What's wrong? Why did you come so suddenly?"

"Ever since I came back from your place, I've been preparing your dowry. I just finished preparing it, bought a ticket, and am going to deliver it to you!"

Send her a dowry?

Jiang Jingxue felt a sense of unease.

Yao Guilan would love to tear her skin off, so why would she be so generous as to prepare a dowry for her?

Before Jiang Jingxue could ask any more questions, Yao Guilan said, "Jingxue, long-distance calls are too expensive, so I won't talk to you anymore. See you at the station tomorrow."

Yao Guilan hung up the phone after she finished speaking.

Jiang Jingxue pondered all night but still couldn't figure out what Yao Guilan was up to.

Never mind, I'll go to the station tomorrow and find out.

the next day.

Jiang Jingxue found Qin Liang and asked him to take her to the train station.

Qin Liang didn't dare to take her out casually.

"Madam, the major has given orders that you are not allowed to go out without permission."

"How can you call this going out casually? Besides, you're here, nothing will happen."

"That won't work either. Let's ask the major for instructions."

Qin Liang insisted on going to Gu Pingwei.

Gu Pingwei didn't want Jiang Jingxue to run around.

But it wouldn't be right to prevent her from leaving the station to pick up her relatives.

Gu Pingwei simply sent a carload of people to protect her before allowing her to leave.

Jiang Jingxue sat in the passenger seat of the pickup truck, looking at the seven or eight young men in military uniforms standing in the back, and was speechless.
