The Empress Dowager in the 70s

The Empress Dowager, doted on by her father and mother, suddenly transmigrated to the 1970s.

Confused, she was tricked by her unscrupulous elder sister and younger brother into becoming a sen...

Chapter 5

If it were anything else, Bai Ruozhen might not agree, but she had just separated from her cousin, the emperor, and she couldn't become the queen, and she felt very sad. Only after leaving home did she realize how good her mother was. Now she missed her mother and Xiaoli very much, and of course, she also missed her cousin whom she hadn't seen many times.

Bai Ruoxin is a bastard and has not been good to her, but he has never done anything terribly evil. Now her body is still small and she doesn't know how to find a partner, but Bai Ruoxin is grown up and is indeed old enough to get married.

So should we go to the countryside? What if we can’t get enough food?

Alas, Bai Ruozhen was confused, because she searched the original owner's mind but could not find any memories about the countryside, so she didn't know what the situation in the countryside was like now.

Seeing Bai Ruozhen's conflicted expression, Bai Ruoxin's eyes flashed with tears and she cried even louder. "Zhenzhen, I beg you, once I'm settled down, I'll ask your brother-in-law to find you a job and then take you back home, okay? At most two years, no, at most one year. After a year, I'll ask your brother-in-law to bring you back, okay?"

Bai Liqiang was also anxious on the side, urging, "Oh, Second Sister, the eldest sister just has a bad mouth, but she still loves us very much. Now she is old, and going to the countryside at this critical juncture of getting married will ruin her life, right? Besides, it's only for a year, not that you won't come back. We must think of a way."

"Then why don't you go in place of elder sister?" Bai Ruozhen suddenly looked at Bai Liqiang and asked, "We are the same age. Wouldn't it be better for you to go to the countryside? Besides, you are a man, and men have ambitions. I think it is more appropriate for you to go."

Bai Ruoxin and Bai Liqiang were stunned for a moment, then Bai Liqiang said, "Second sister, what nonsense are you talking about? I am the eldest son in the family, and I will have to take care of the family from now on. How will I take care of my parents if I go to the countryside? Second sister, you have disappointed me so much." He became more and more excited as he spoke, and stood up with a stern and righteous face, "The most important thing for us children is to be filial to our parents. As the eldest son, how can I leave home at a time like this? Second sister, haven't you always wanted to go to the countryside? What difference does it make if you go early or late? If you go six months early, you can help your eldest sister, and if you go six months later, our family will have another person going to the countryside. Second sister, are you so cold-hearted and heartless that you don't have an eldest sister?"

"Oh, big brother, your second sister was also anxious for a moment, wasn't it Zhenzhen?" Bai Ruoxin began to play the good cop, holding Bai Ruoxin's hand and said, "We women, even after getting married, still have to rely on our parents' family for support. Only when big brother gets better and more capable in the future will we have someone to rely on. Liqiang also wanted to let him go, but big sister can't agree. He is the eldest son and grandson of our Bai family. If he leaves, there will only be Dad as a man in the family. No one will take care of him if he gets bullied in the future."

Bai Ruozhen remained silent, truly undecided. It didn't matter where, though. He just didn't know why he felt reluctant to leave. Perhaps it was the original owner's thoughts.

Seeing that she was silent again, Bai Ruoxin simply started crying again, "Second sister, please have pity on me, your elder sister. I'm about to get married."

"That's right, second sister, you can't be so unsympathetic." Bai Liqiang also joined in the fun.

Bai Ruozhen watched them singing the same tune, and she knew their plan. Although she didn't know what the situation was like in the countryside, it was definitely not as good as in the city, otherwise this bad sister would not have persuaded her to go.

Should I go or not?

Ouch, what a headache.

"Liqiang, why don't you go? I'll take care of the family business from now on." Bai Ruozhen looked at Bai Liqiang innocently and sighed, "Ah, this way, Big Sister won't have to cry, and Liqiang won't have to worry about home. Don't worry, once Big Brother-in-law helps you find a job, I'll go to the countryside to pick you up myself."

Bai Ruozhen turned around and held Bai Ruozhen's hand again and said seriously, "Sister, Liqiang is so good to you. He will definitely be willing to go to the countryside for you and let you stay in the city to get married. What do you think, Liqiang?"

Bai Liqiang petrified.
