Chapter 10 Chapter 10 My sister is back
Unlike his colleagues, who earn less than enough money to cover their family expenses every month and are driven crazy by their children every day, especially those with students at home, who are driven crazy just by tutoring their homework.
Compared to before, Zhang Mengzhi's life is very free and easy. He doesn't have to worry about anything except himself and looks much younger than his peers.
However, he also knew that it was normal to urge marriage in this era. As long as Zhang Mengzhi was determined, it would be useless no matter how much his parents and elders urged him to get married.
"I don't know what's wrong with you, kid. You get upset when you mention marriage. Isn't marriage good?"
When grandma saw Zhang Mengzhi’s fake smile, she knew that he wanted to talk about marriage again.
It has been like this since he was a child. If someone joked about Zhang Mengzhi getting married, he would tell the other person coldly that he would not get married, let alone take a wife.
He himself didn't think there was anything wrong, but he made a bunch of adults feel very awkward, and in the end they were too embarrassed to continue teasing them.
Later, when he got engaged to the daughter of the Wang family, although Zhang Mengzhi no longer said that he didn't want to get married, he also did not contact the daughter of the Wang family and focused on staying away from his fiancée's family.
It can be said that Zhang Mengzhi has no problem with his character. Even if he doesn't like the Wang family, he never speaks ill of them. Even when he broke off the engagement, he was thinking about compensating the woman.
If the Wang family hadn't been playing both sides and wanting more, it wouldn't have caused Zhang Mengzhi to be disgusted.
The events in the original book will not happen again, and the Zhang family will not serve as a stepping stone for the male and female protagonists, allowing them to climb up by stepping on the blood and tears of the Zhang family.
As long as the male and female protagonists are sensible, Zhang Mengzhi will not get entangled with them.
It’s a pity that Zhang Mengzhi had a good idea, but the other party didn’t think the same way!
On her way back from her grandmother's house, Zhang Mengzhi was blocked halfway on the road.
"Boy, you are so arrogant!"
The man had a nonchalant look and was holding a big wooden stick in his hand.
"Sent by Wang Lingya?"
Now Wang Lingya hasn't caught the male protagonist yet, so she doesn't dare let the male protagonist know her true identity, nor does she dare let him know that she has a fiancé.
Therefore, the person who blocked Zhang Mengzhi was definitely not sent by the hero. He just came back from the countryside yesterday. Even if he had offended someone before, the other party would not receive the news so quickly in this era, so it could only be the heroine who did it secretly.
It's obvious that this man is the fish that the heroine usually raises in her pond, otherwise he wouldn't come here to vent her anger.
"Who, who is Wang Lingya?"
Zhang Mengzhi guessed the truth at once, but the man didn't dare to admit it, so he stammered in denial.
"Your expression and tone have betrayed you. Wang Lingya asked you to come and find trouble with me, but didn't she tell you my identity? Don't you know that there are relatives of mine among the Little Red Guards?"
Zhang Mengzhi looked at the man with a guilty look on his face. Although the current atmosphere was not very good, it had not been long since the previous turmoil, and the power of the Little Red Soldiers had not completely dissipated.
When he said this, the man was shocked.
"You, you must be lying to me? Lingya didn't even mention that."
Although the man said this, the stick in his hand fell to the ground. After all, the shadow left by the Red Guards had not yet passed so quickly.
I also know that most people won’t use the Red Guards to scare others, and most people don’t dare to have anything to do with them.
"You know clearly that I didn't lie to you, otherwise why do you think the Wang family wanted to give his daughter to me as my fiancée? By the way, did you know that she is my fiancée?"
Knowing that Wang Lingya would definitely not tell the other party the truth, Zhang Mengzhi was determined to expose her lies and let the other party know that she was a liar who specifically targeted men like him.
"You are her fiancé? No, you lied to me."
The man screamed and looked at Zhang Mengzhi in disbelief. Wang Lingya had always said she was single, otherwise why would they be around her? You have to know that in this era, no one dared to have casual relationships with men and women.
"I'm not lying to you. Her family even received a 200 yuan betrothal gift from my family, so she is indeed my fiancée. You and my fiancée are not involved. I can easily report you for having an affair and send you to reform."
Zhang Mengzhi dealt the man another heavy blow.
"No, no, no, I have nothing to do with her. She said you bullied her and asked me to teach you a lesson. I didn't mean to do that. I know I was wrong. If you have problems, it has nothing to do with me."
When the man heard that Zhang Mengzhi was going to report it, he was so scared that he immediately clarified the truth and became completely panicked.
He was also hit hard when he met his colleague. He left in a daze and didn't even remember that he came to cause trouble for Zhang Mengzhi.
He didn't doubt Zhang Mengzhi's words at all, because there was no need for Zhang Mengzhi to lie to him about something that could be worn out as soon as it was taken apart.
It was precisely because he knew that there was no need for the other party to lie to him that the man who was deceived by Wang Lingya suffered a greater blow.
They always thought that the other person was a saint with a pure heart, but who knew that she was a love scammer who specifically targeted men like them.
If Zhang Mengzhi hadn't reacted quickly and told the truth, he would have beaten Wang Lingya's fiancé today and was taken away by the Red Guards and the police.
Whether it is beating people or having promiscuous relationships between men and women, it is very serious in this era.
Watching the man stumbling away, Zhang Mengzhi picked up the stick on the ground.
"Wang Lingya, how should I respond to your actions?"
He tapped his hands with the stick a few times and spoke nonchalantly.
However, Zhang Mengzhi decided to wait until the betrothal money was returned before taking revenge. After all, money was more important.
Three days passed quickly, and Wang Lingya still didn't get the news that Zhang Mengzhi was beaten. She went to look for the man but couldn't find him, so she had to return to the Wang family in disappointment.
At this time, Wang's father had already taken his wife and children to Zhang's house to return the betrothal money.
"This is a two hundred yuan betrothal gift. If there are no problems, the original marriage certificate will be invalidated."
In addition to the betrothal gift, Wang's father also brought over the marriage certificate that he had kept at home.
"sure."
The witness's copy cannot be taken back for the time being, but they can write another certificate and have both parties put their fingerprints on it, so that the only remaining copy of the marriage certificate can be invalidated.
Zhang Mengzhi will contact the other party personally to explain the situation, and the witness will understand.
"Mom, count the money."
Zhang Mengzhi asked Zhang's mother to collect the money.
"good."
Mother Zhang picked up the money, counted it, and put it away after making sure that there was no problem with the money.
"The marriage certificate can be burned."
Zhang Mengzhi took the candle and burned the two marriage certificates into ashes together.
"From now on, our two families will have no relationship. There will be no marriage contract or anything like that. The man will not be married, the woman will not be married, and no rumors will be spread."
"I can promise that my family won't tell anyone."
Zhang Mengzhi agreed. If the Zhang family didn't tell others, he couldn't guarantee whether other people who knew the situation would tell others.
"good."
Father Wang accepted his copy of the certificate and quickly left Zhang's house, reluctant to part with the two hundred yuan.
They don’t dare to go against the Zhang family now. The Zhang family is easy to deal with, but their relatives are not.
"Finally he's gone. My brother is free."
After the Wang family left, Zhang Mengyu cheered with joy.
"That's great. I finally have nothing to do with the Wang family."
Even Zhang's mother said this, which shows that the Zhang family really has no good feelings towards the Wang family.
"I'll go get some meat and come back. Let's celebrate today."
Mr. Zhang walked straight out. Although you couldn't see it on his face, you could tell how happy he was from his actions.
The Wang family couldn't wait to cancel the engagement, and so did the Zhang family.
They were all glad that the Wang family looked down on Zhang Mengzhi now, otherwise, once Zhang Mengzhi married Wang Lingya, there would definitely be endless troubles in the future.
"Mengzhi, what are you thinking about?"
Mother Zhang turned around and saw her son's face without any joy at all, and asked with some concern.
Could it be that my son really fell in love with Wang Lingya and regretted breaking off the engagement?
Absolutely not, she didn't want Wang Lingya to be her daughter-in-law at all.
"I was thinking about how to respond to Wang Lingya. The fact that she hired someone to beat me up cannot be easily let go." Zhang Mengzhi didn't realize it for a moment and told others that he was blocked by someone.
"What? She actually dared to hire someone to beat you up? I'll go and settle the score with them."
When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she became furious and said she would go to the Wang family to seek justice.
"Mom, don't get excited, I'm fine."
Zhang Mengzhi quickly grabbed her and persuaded her to give up going to Wang's house.
"Brother, are you okay? Did he hit you?"
Zhang Mengyu worriedly held her brother's hand and asked in a trembling voice.
"Mom, Xiaoyu, I'm fine. He was scared away by me. He will probably avoid me when he sees me next time."
Zhang Mengxiao came to his senses and saw that his mother and sister were frightened by his words, so he immediately comforted them.
"It's good that you're okay. It's good that you're okay. Wang Lingya is a disaster. Fortunately, we have nothing to do with her now. Stay away from her when you see her in the future. Nothing good will come of meeting her."
Mother Zhang's eyes turned red, and she scolded her son while admonishing him. When she thought about her son almost getting beaten, her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
"I know, Mom."
Zhang Mengzhi quickly agreed. He would do it even if his mother didn't tell him to, but he would still take revenge when it was due.
"Mom, Dayong and I are back. Xiaoyu, come and see what your sister bought for you."
Suddenly, a cheerful female voice was heard from outside.
"My sister is back."
Zhang Mengyu immediately left his brother behind and ran out.
"Mengyao is back."
Mother Zhang wiped her eyes and tried to cheer herself up to greet her eldest daughter.
"Mom, as soon as I received the news yesterday, Dayong and I packed up and went back to my parents' home early this morning. We also left the two children at their grandmother's house and asked them to help take care of them for a day."
Zhang Mengyao walked in empty-handed, while her husband Xia Dayong followed his wife into the house carrying bags. Zhang Mengyu was eating a string of candied haws in her hand.
"Brother, do you want to eat the candied haws my sister bought for me?"
Zhang Mengyu said while holding up a red candied haws.
"Eat it yourself!"
Zhang Mengzhi pushed the candied haws back.
"oh."
Zhang Mengyu obediently took it back and started eating it slowly.
"Mengzhi, come here and let your sister see how you have been doing in the countryside this year."
Zhang Mengyao let go of her mother's hand and pulled her brother and husband over to look at her together.
