When Song Yan returned from her previous life, she was belittled by her to the point of being unable to lift her head.
But at this moment, they didn't care.
She calmly said, "Instead of worrying about my life, you should worry about yourself. My mother came to see me the other day and said that your father asked me to help you find a partner. I'm just not good at marrying, but you'll never be able to get married at all."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Li Baozhu with some pity.
Li Baozhu inherited her father's dark complexion and less-than-refined features, but she was the only daughter in her family, so she was always raised in luxury.
This led to Li Baozhu developing a personality that was ambitious but lacked practical skills.
Having returned from university, Li Baozhu, with her education, naturally looked down on the rough men from the countryside.
He was determined to move to the city and live a better life.
But they were all genuine rural people, with a lot of poor relatives and not a single rich one.
Only Song Yanzhi married someone slightly better.
They figured she lived in a military compound and the people around her must be well-off, which is why they asked her for help.
So much time has passed, and there's still no sign of it.
In their rural area, a woman who is not married by the age of eighteen is considered a grown woman, and the older she gets, the more anxious Li Baozhu becomes.
That's her current situation.
She doesn't like men with poor conditions, and men with good conditions don't like her.
Although I got into university, I'm not as sought-after as I imagined.
This time, Song Yanzhi really hit a nerve, and his face twisted in pain.
"Why can't I get married? I just don't want to find someone, I don't want to end up like you, with a husband who cheats on you and you have to raise his illegitimate child. You might get kicked out one day, and don't come back crying and making a fool of yourself."
What she said was really too much.
The people on the bus couldn't help but look over.
Pei Yuchen made this trip not only to visit Song Yanzhi's family, but also to explain the matter, fearing that it might sound unpleasant if it got out.
But he didn't expect it to be this serious.
Before Song Yanzhi could speak, he spoke first, his voice cold and deep: "Comrade, you've gone too far. It's true that the two children were adopted, but they are indeed the children of my deceased comrade-in-arms. They have no blood relation to me. Please show some respect. If you have a problem, come at me. There's no need to mock my wife."
Upon hearing this, Li Baozhu was startled. When she turned around, she found Pei Yuchen sitting behind her. She had only seen Song Yanzhi and Xiaobao, so she naturally assumed that Song Yanzhi had gone back to her parents' home because of her adopted son and daughter.
I never expected Pei Yuchen to be there too.
Actually, although they were born on the same day, Song Yanzhi was born a few minutes earlier than her, so she still had to call Pei Yuchen "brother-in-law".
Now that she had been overheard talking badly about someone, Li Baozhu was so embarrassed that she wished she could dig a hole and disappear.
She's always liked to show off, especially in front of the type of man she likes.
Pei Yuchen was exactly her type. When he came to the Song family to propose marriage, Li Baozhu was stunned. Having seen many rough men covered in mud in the countryside all year round, this was the first time she had seen such a young, aloof, and extraordinary man.
He was dressed in a crisp military uniform, carrying a gift box in his hand, and his whole demeanor was like a tall, straight pine tree, aloof and proud.
But she was going to university, so this kind of man was destined to be out of her reach.
Li Baozhu believed that once she went to university, she would have no shortage of high-quality men.
Pei Yuchen was handsome, but five years ago his family wasn't particularly well-off.
So she suppressed her jealousy and focused on finding a man ten or a hundred times better than Song Yanzhi in the future.
Unexpectedly, five years have passed in the blink of an eye, and she can't find a better man, or even a man in the city.
Meanwhile, Song Yanzhi's status as a man rose steadily, becoming more and more outstanding each year.
Li Baozhu heard this and was very anxious.
During this period, I often went to the city, fantasizing that I could meet the kind of rich young master and Cinderella story in folk tales.
However, reality is cruel.
Forget about rich young masters, she hasn't met a single wealthy person.
She was already in a bad mood, and then she didn't get a seat. The driver told her to squat in the back, but then she ran into Song Yanzhi, who had taken a good seat. How could she not take the time to make a few sarcastic remarks?
Little did they expect that Pei Yuchen would overhear them.
Song Yanzhi scoffed, "Do you want to take the car or not? If not, we're leaving. Everyone's waiting; don't waste everyone's time."
She was too lazy to argue with Li Baozhu anymore.
She was young then, and when Li Baozhu provoked her, she would jump up and down.
But now Song Yanzhi has lived more than a decade longer than her, and her mindset is completely different.
Li Baozhu blushed, feeling both embarrassed and angry upon hearing this.
But then, remembering something, she glared at Song Yanzhi resentfully, then immediately turned around and got into the back seat. Her expression changed faster than flipping through a book, and she said in a high-pitched voice, "Brother-in-law, there are no seats left. Is it okay if I sit on your lap? Sister, you can see that, you shouldn't mind, right?"
Song Yanzhi didn't even turn his head, completely ignoring him.
He ignored her.
Seeing that she pretended not to hear her, Li Baozhu gritted her teeth, turned to Pei Yuchen with a wronged expression and said, "Brother-in-law, I only heard what the city people said earlier, it has nothing to do with me, I didn't expect my sister to take it so seriously."
After saying that, she winked at Pei Yuchen and said, "Brother-in-law, look, I don't have any room. It's uncomfortable standing like this. Can I sit on your lap?"
Pei Yuchen frowned in disgust and said coldly, "Sorry, men and women shouldn't touch each other. You should stay standing."
Li Baozhu: "......"
Someone couldn't help but laugh.
Li Baozhu blushed.
