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 57

Li Qiulan had been persuaded by Bai Ruozhen, but she couldn't get over it. She simply couldn't accept that the girl she loved would be married in Yancheng for the rest of her life. On the other hand, she felt sorry for her daughter, believing it was her husband's incompetence that forced her to suffer in the countryside and marry so far away.

Bai Ruozhen understood Li Qiulan's concerns and held her hand, comforting her, "Mom, Yancheng isn't far from the provincial capital. Look, we took the train yesterday afternoon and arrived this morning. We'll be staying in Yancheng from now on. If you want to come back, just buy a ticket in advance and you can get home in one night. It'll be convenient for you and Dad to visit us, too. It's not like we're going to some remote, mountainous area."

"Let's talk about it after your dad comes back." Li Qiulan said.

Bai Ruozhen's eyes were filled with a hint of smile. Li Qiulan noticed the watch on her wrist and asked, "Did you buy this watch? Did you spend all the money I gave you?"

"No." Bai Ruozhen's face was slightly flushed. "He bought it for me."

Li Qiulan fell silent for a moment. Watches are not cheap. Nowadays, if you buy a watch for your wife when you marry her, she will feel proud when she goes out. But he bought this for her before they got engaged yet. She suddenly became worried.

Thinking of this, Li Qiulan looked at Bai Ruozhen seriously, "Tell Mom, you two didn't do that, did you?"

"What?" Bai Ruozhen was a little confused.

Li Qiulan looked at her daughter's silly expression and was really worried that she had been deceived, so she said, "It's just that he drilled your □□ or not."

Bai Ruozhen's face turned red. "Mom, what are you talking about? We haven't gotten married yet, he doesn't dare."

"Really?" Li Qiulan was a little skeptical. How could someone with nothing do this and still be able to work for her and buy her a watch? Why hadn't she met such a kind person before?

Bah, Li Qiulan slapped her head, what was she thinking about.

Bai Ruozhen nodded, "Of course it's true, your daughter is not stupid."

Li Qiulan curled her lips, "Of course I'm stupid, you're the dumbest. You were still strong before you got hit, at least you didn't suffer any loss. But after getting hit, your personality has changed and you've become completely stupid."

The despised Bai Ruozhen: "......"

"No matter what, you must never let him get inside your body before you two get married, okay?" Li Qiulan warned.

Just as Bai Ruozhen was about to nod, she heard the sound of a door closing outside. Bai Ruozhen's eyelids jumped, "Could it be that my eldest sister is back?"

Li Qiulan felt a headache when she mentioned Bai Ruoxin, "Who else could it be if not her?" That little bastard Bai Ruoyun was the best at reading people's expressions, so she didn't dare to make any noise.

Bai Ruozhen's forehead jumped and he hurried out, then saw Bai Ruoxin standing in the room looking Gu Changqing up and down.

When Gu Changqing saw Bai Ruozhen hadn't come out for a long time, he knew that she was being interrogated by her mother. After Bai Lishan poured him some water, the two of them just stared at each other. Not long after, the door was pushed open, and then a girl around 20 years old came in. Based on Bai Ruozhen's original description, Gu Changqing quickly matched her up with the evil elder sister Bai Ruoxin.

As soon as Bai Ruoxin entered the room, she saw a stranger sitting in the house. More importantly, he was very good-looking and wore nice clothes, which were new and not cheap. Bai Ruoxin's gloomy mood suddenly improved. She reached out to smooth her braids and asked shyly, "Lishan, who is this? Why don't you introduce him to me?" She saw several bags by the door. Could they be all the good things this person brought? His family must be well-off.

"Ah?" Bai Lishan looked up and introduced, "Big sister, this is my second sister's boyfriend, and he will be my second brother-in-law in the future."

Gu Changqing raised his eyebrows, and his impression of his brother-in-law suddenly improved. No wonder his Zhenzhen was so concerned about him. He was really a lovely child.

When Bai Ruoxin heard Bai Ruozhen's name, her brows immediately raised. She forgot to pretend to be a lady and exclaimed, "Your second sister is back?"

As they were talking, Bai Ruozhen and Li Qiulan came out from the inner room.

Bai Ruozhen glanced at Bai Ruoxin and called out, "Big Sister."

"Hmph." Bai Ruoxin snorted and threw her bag onto the table. "Why did you come back? You're making me upset."

Bai Ruozhen smiled and said, "This is my home. I can come back whenever I want. Besides, it's not me who's annoying. It's some people who are so restless and never have a moment's peace."

"You!" Bai Ruoxin's sore spot was touched, and tears welled up in her eyes. Why was she making a fuss? It was because of going to the countryside. She originally thought that if she tricked Bai Ruozhen into going to the countryside, she could stay in the city, and then force her mother to give her a job so that she wouldn't have to go to the countryside. But who knew that her mother was determined not to give her the job, and would wait until Bai Liqiang graduated before giving the job to Bai Liqiang. Now she has been notified by the Youth League Office that she must go to the countryside in August this year, no room for negotiation.

She had also learned that the educated youth going to the countryside this year were going to Guizhou, a vast distance from Shandong Province. The poverty and harshness of the mountains and rivers were even worse than Yancheng. If she had known this, she would have gone to the countryside during the Spring Festival. At least Yancheng was an overnight train ride away, while there weren't even direct trains to Guizhou. She would have had to change trains several times along the way, and it would have taken several days to get there.

Bai Ruoxin felt sad as she thought about it. Why? Why couldn't she stay in the city? It wasn't fair at all. Unfortunately, her mother had already given her job to Bai Liqiang. She wanted to give her his father's job, but his father was also partial and ignored her request. In desperation, she could only go out and find connections on her own, but she didn't have any. Her old friends had gone to the countryside to work, and no one would pay attention to her.
