Lin Zhiyue walked leisurely on the path in the field. The breeze blew gently, carrying the fragrance of soil and the scent of crops.

She stopped from time to time to admire the vibrant rural scenery around her and immerse herself in the tranquility of the moment.

Just then, a slightly plump woman came hurriedly from the path beside the field.

With a mysterious and eager smile on her face and a different light in her eyes, she walked straight towards Lin Zhiyue.

The woman came to Lin Zhiyue and without even taking a breath, she stretched out her hand and grabbed Lin Zhiyue's arm. Her enthusiasm made Lin Zhiyue dazed for a moment.

"Zhiyue!" the woman shouted, her voice full of familiarity and eagerness, "I've finally been waiting for you."

Lin Zhiyue came back to her senses, put on a polite smile and asked softly, "Aunt, what are you doing..." Before she could finish her words, the woman couldn't wait to start talking.

"Zhiyue, look, your parents are gone, and now you are all alone." The woman said, with a look of pity on her face, and gently patted the back of Lin Zhiyue's hand, "Auntie, I have been thinking about you in my heart."

She paused, the expression on her face became more mysterious, and her tone became a little higher: "How about this, auntie introduce you to a partner? Let me tell you, it's my nephew, he's very good. He works in town, and he's a formal employee!" When she said this, the woman's eyes were full of pride, as if she was showing off a rare treasure.

"You can earn more than 20 yuan a month! In our place, this salary is not low. Moreover, he is honest, hardworking and good-looking. What do you think?" The woman said as she carefully observed Lin Zhiyue's expression, her eyes full of expectation, as if she had already sketched out a beautiful picture of the two getting married in her mind.

Lin Zhiyue looked at the overly enthusiastic woman in front of her, and all kinds of memories about her instantly emerged in her mind.

She remembered that this woman was a famous widow in the village. She loved to run around and was keen on matchmaking for people, but her purpose was not simple.

Lin Zhiyue had also heard of the nephew she mentioned. He had a very bad reputation in the village. He was idle all day long and did a lot of sneaky things. He was not a down-to-earth person at all.

Lin Zhiyue was secretly alert in her heart, but she still kept a polite smile on her face, and responded calmly: "Auntie, I appreciate your kindness, but you know my situation. I still have to focus on school now."

She frowned slightly, her eyes revealing her determination and persistence in her studies, "Think about it, if I distract myself from dating now, how can I have the energy to study? If I don't study well, I won't have any future."

After a pause, Lin Zhiyue's expression became a little lonely, and her tone became much softer: "And when my father was alive, he specifically told me that I should not consider lifelong events until I was 20 years old. My father has loved me since I was a child. I have always kept his words in my heart and dare not disobey them in the slightest." Speaking of her father, Lin Zhiyue's eyes reddened slightly, and a feeling of longing surged in her heart.

Then, she raised her head and looked at the woman firmly, her tone filled with unquestionable determination: "Also, aunt, you know the situation of my family. After my father passed away, I was the only one left at home. I thought that I should find a live-in son-in-law in the future, so that the incense of my Lin family can continue, and someone can help me support the family." As Lin Zhiyue spoke, she thought silently in her heart that she must not be fooled by the sweet words of the woman in front of her. She had to find a way to send her away and not let her continue to pester her.

After hearing what Lin Zhiyue said, the smile on the woman's face froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal. She rolled her eyes, took a step forward, took Lin Zhiyue's hand, and said in a pretentious manner: "Hey, Zhiyue, can your aunt harm you? Going to school is important, but this lifelong event cannot be delayed. Think about it, if your partner is capable, he can help you complete your studies in the future, and maybe even support you to go to a big city for further studies."

Lin Zhiyue sneered in her heart, but she still explained patiently on the surface: "Aunt, I understand what you said, but this matter can't be rushed. I am in a critical period of study now. If I look for a partner now, my mind will be distracted and my grades will drop, then all my previous efforts will be wasted. I still want to get into a good university in the future and bring honor to my family."

The woman still did not give up, and said persistently: "Zhiyue, you said you want to find a partner after you turn 20, but that's too long. The person I introduced to you is hard to find even with a lantern. You should think about it again. My nephew is really good. Although he likes to play around now, he will definitely settle down after he gets married and has responsibilities."

Lin Zhiyue shook her head slightly, her expression firm: "Aunt, it's really not necessary. My father's instructions are very important to me. This is my promise to him. And the matter of recruiting a live-in son-in-law cannot be easily changed."

Seeing Lin Zhiyue's firm attitude, the woman's face gradually turned ugly, and she muttered, "Why are you so stubborn, kid? You won't agree to such a good thing."

But he couldn't get angry, so he could only laugh awkwardly and said, "Okay, Zhiyue, think about it carefully. If you change your mind in the future, you must tell your aunt."

Lin Zhiyue looked at the woman's leaving back and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew that there would probably be many more such things in the future. After all, she was alone now and had some looks, so it was inevitable that someone would have ideas about her.
