The female protagonist, Lin Ziyan, was an aquaculture PhD and a double major in ship design in her past life. She was reborn into the body of a girl from a small fishing village in Fuzhou.
Ju...
Upon hearing the charge of hooliganism, Wei Er's eyes flickered as he thought of the trouble his son had caused in the next village.
If he is accused, his son will have to go to jail for several years.
He thought about it for a while, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
If he really goes in, his life will be completely hopeless.
Li Zhaodi is now completely speechless; she was trembling all over when she heard the alarm was raised.
She was aware that her son couldn't withstand scrutiny.
"Apologize, pay compensation, I'll bring Wei Sheng tomorrow..."
"Take him to the Lin family ancestral hall tomorrow and make him kneel there and apologize." Before Wei Er could finish speaking, Grandpa Lin interrupted him.
The Lin family is now comprised entirely of women, with the oldest being very old and the youngest very young.
At this time, Wei Er brought his son to visit, just in case something unexpected happened.
Grandpa Lin saw things clearly; Wei Er wasn't brainless, and he was probably up to no good.
"Ayan, do you think this arrangement is okay?" Grandpa Lin turned around and asked.
Lin Ziyan nodded gratefully and said, "I'll do whatever you say."
Wei Er rolled his eyes around and could only reluctantly agree.
If his son hadn't gotten involved in that scandal in the neighboring village, he wouldn't be in such a passive position.
Wei Er was holding his breath, and when he glanced at Li Zhaodi on the ground, his gaze instantly turned icy.
He grabbed Li Zhaodi, his eyes filled with malice, and dragged her away.
…
Back in the courtyard,
Lin Ziyan felt a warmth in her heart when she saw the prepared meal.
Grandma is insightful and clear-headed; she won't let others affect her life rhythm.
Even though the incident caused such a big stir, she still cooked the meals as usual.
"Ah Yan, eat first," Lin Atai called out as she set out the bowls and chopsticks.
Seeing the old lady's expression, the chubby girl turned around and went back to her own home, her face full of doubt.
"Sister, hurry...it's delicious!" The third sister, Jiaojiao, said intermittently, her mouth full of oil.
The second sister, Xiaoxiao, didn't say anything, but she served her a bowl of soup.
Both of them looked at Ah Tai.
"Why are you looking at me? Eat your porridge." Grandma picked up the big bowl and lowered her head to drink the porridge.
Throughout the meal, only Jiaojiao kept talking.
"Ayan, come in here for a moment."
Before entering the inner room, Lin Atai left behind a sentence.
Lin Ziyan's eyes flickered, she pursed her lips slightly, and followed.
The two sat facing each other in wicker chairs.
With a solemn expression, Atai said, "Ayan, our Lin family has no sons, so our eldest daughter needs to find a husband."
“If you have other ideas, I will respect your choice.”
Lin Ziyan, "..."
She was completely bewildered; she had never even considered this question.
In her past life, she was busy with research, experiments, and writing papers; she never had a boyfriend.
Having been reborn here, Lin Ziyan never even considered getting married.
She happened to have two younger sisters to support, so she was even less likely to think about that.
"I hadn't thought about it," Lin Ziyan said honestly.
"Grandma, I don't want to get married right now, and I might stay at home for a long time."
Lin Atai was taken aback, then laughed and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? Would I possibly look down on you?"
"Grandma hopes you can find a good man and a son-in-law who will live with you, so you won't be bullied."
"Of course, we women are our own support, so don't take marriage too seriously."
Lin Ziyan was shocked; her grandmother's ideas were quite progressive.
She pursed her lips and asked tentatively, "Grandma, what if I never get married?"
Mrs. Lin said, "If I can't find the right person, I won't get married. Marriage is about having a better life together."
"Ah Tai thinks you're not the type to compromise yourself."
Lin Ziyan's eyes reddened slightly; her grandmother had said those words before.
Lin Atai patted the back of her hand, "Do what you want to do, don't have any worries."
"Grandma can hold on for you for another ten years or so..."
Lin Ziyan's eyes welled up with tears. She hugged her grandmother's shoulders and leaned against her for a while.
She knew that her grandmother was trying to comfort her in her own way because she was afraid that she would feel wronged.
…
night,
Lin Ziyan sat at the table and opened the Lego model.
She looked at the picture and it wasn't very complicated, and each department had its own packaging.
This surprised her quite a bit.
The third sister, Jiaojiao, sat to the side biting her finger, watching without daring to reach out.
The second sister pulled up a rattan chair and craned her neck to look.
"Sister, is this a jigsaw puzzle?" Xiaoxiao, the second sister, asked in confusion.
She looked at it from left to right but couldn't tell it was a puzzle, but there was a picture on the box.
When opened, it contained only small, miscellaneous items.
"Xiaoxiao, this is called Lego."
"By combining these according to the picture, you can assemble the model in the picture," Lin Ziyan explained, and even gave a demonstration.
She gave a small portion to her second sister, Xiaoxiao, to try.
There wasn't much entertainment available in the evenings during those days.
The children usually gather in groups of several, chasing and playing around.
The adults gathered together, chatting about everyday matters.
"Sister, is that so?" Xiaoxiao, the second sister, asked with a light smile.
"Xiaoxiao is amazing! That's how you assemble it." Lin Ziyan praised her without changing her hand movements.
"I'm amazing too!" Third Sister Jiaojiao retorted, grabbing the object and shaking it.
"That's right, Jiaojiao is amazing too!"
Lin Ziyan praised her third sister, and her eyes immediately curved into crescent shapes.
The soft yellow light magnified the shadows of the three people, projecting them onto the wall.
Lin Ziyan worked quickly and assembled a small part in no time.
With my second sister's help, the assembly process was much faster.
"When is Jiaojiao's birthday?" Lin Ziyan asked.
She suddenly remembered that Jiaojiao was about to turn four, and her birthday should be coming up soon.
