Chapter 2: Marriage Exchange
There is a long way to go, and the Lin family will never be able to repay her for what she owes them in this lifetime!
Lin Mengyao also fantasizes about going to the countryside to get close to Shen Nanfeng and becoming successful from then on.
Oh! Without her behind the scenes, Shen Nanfeng, who likes to eat, drink, gamble and whore, would not only fail to turn things around, but even his family fortune would be ruined.
…
Five days later, it was the day the two families had agreed upon for the wedding.
At this moment, people were coming and going in the Sucheng Military Family Compound. Mr. Zhong was drinking tea with his friends with a rosy face, but an untimely voice came from outside the door, "Grandpa, my second cousin is not in the room. I looked around but couldn't find him!"
Zhong Zhiyang's grandmother Li Guixiang stood up suddenly and shouted angrily: "I'm afraid this little bastard has eloped with that widow! The world is really going downhill, hurry up and find him! I will marry him today even if I have to break his legs!"
Everyone looked at each other. They knew early on that Zhong Zhiyang had been bewitched by a widow. They all knew that person, her name was Jiang Nianyue.
If it was a widow with a clean background, Li Guixiang would not object so much, but the widow's mother was in the flesh trade, and even Jiang Nianyue didn't know which wild man left the child!
Therefore, Li Guixiang always looked down on her and was very opposed to Zhong Zhiyang's relationship with her. It happened that the old man had promised a marriage to her in his early years, so she decided to give the marriage to Zhong Zhiyang instead of her eldest grandson Zhong Heyang.
Li Guixiang's original intention was to use this marriage to restrain Zhong Zhiyang, but who would have thought that her grandson would go against everyone. He happily agreed to get married yesterday, but ran away today? !
Lin Ziqiu was a little surprised. In her previous life, Zhong Zhiyang ran away the day before the wedding and the banquet was never held. But in this life, he actually eloped in front of everyone.
She didn't believe at all that Lin Mengyao had no hand in this.
Lin Mengyao, who heard the news, pushed the door open and pretended to comfort her, "Sister, don't be sad. Although your brother-in-law abandoned you and eloped with someone else, at least you haven't married him yet, so it doesn't count."
In her previous life, Zhong Zhiyang made her a laughing stock in the compound, so in this life, he wanted her good sister to also experience the feeling of being a laughing stock.
Lin Mengyao lowered her eyes to hide the gloating in her eyes, and was thinking about sending Lin Ziqiu to the northwest for reform so that she would never be able to turn over a new leaf in her life.
The two had been dealing with each other for decades, and Lin Ziqiu guessed what she was thinking at a glance.
"It doesn't matter if it doesn't count. Anyway, I won't starve living here. Life in the countryside is poor. Without work points, there is no food. It is common to dig wild vegetables and eat tree roots. Before you go to the countryside, sister, you must eat more good food, otherwise you won't be able to eat when you want to."
These words hit Lin Mengyao straight in the chest. As someone who had died once, how could she not know that life in the countryside was far inferior to that in the city.
But everything requires hardship before sweetness. Once she reaches Shen Nanfeng's peak and waits until the college entrance examination is opened, she will have endless wealth and glory, which is much better than marrying the scumbag Zhong Zhiyang.
However, Lin Ziqiu's words woke her up. Life in the countryside was hard and she had to find a way to make some money. She remembered that the Zhong family gave a betrothal gift of 666 yuan, and she must take this money away!
Lin Mengyao rolled her eyes. "So what if life in the countryside is hard? It's better than having a bad reputation like you!"
A bitch that no one wants! Let’s see how long you can be so arrogant! Lin Ziqiu ignored her, opened the door and walked out.
"Zhong Zhiyang ran away from the marriage with his sweetheart. As the saying goes, it is better to destroy a temple than to ruin a marriage. I have no intention of breaking up the two of them. Let's call off this marriage."
The corners of her mouth curled slightly, and there was a hint of helplessness on her delicate little face.
Li Guixiang pulled her to sit on the chair affectionately, "Zi Qiu, this marriage cannot be cancelled. I know you have been wronged. Don't worry, when I find that bastard, I will definitely punish him severely."
Zhong Xuexi looked down on the powerless Lin Ziqiu from the bottom of her heart, and said disdainfully, "Think carefully, this marriage was arranged by your grandfather and my grandfather. If you cancel the engagement, it won't be easy to regret it later."
Lin Ziqiu said calmly: "It was Zhong Zhiyang who broke off the engagement first, how come it seems like my fault? If this is the family tradition of the Zhong family, then I won't marry!"
"you!"
Li Guixiang glared at Zhong Xuexi in a warning manner, then turned her head and said, "Zi Qiu, we were indeed wrong in what happened today, but this marriage cannot be let go. I watched your mother grow up, and she died early, leaving only a girl like you. No matter what, I will take good care of you."
"As long as you don't cancel the engagement, grandma will agree to any request you make!" As the wife of a leader, Li Guixiang cares most about the reputation of their Zhong family.
It would be fine if the grandson ran away, but if the grandson's wife also ran away, the Zhong family would lose face.
Lin Ziqiu lowered her eyes and thought to herself, if she went back to the Lin family alone today, Lin Dahai would just despise her for being useless, or even kick her out... She wouldn't be able to take away anything her mother left for her.
Just as he was thinking, a door on the east side of the yard was pushed open, and a military green figure walked out from inside. After seeing who it was, Lin Ziqiu's starry eyes flashed slightly, and he had already thought of the next plan in his mind.
"Since Zhong Zhiyang ran away, you should find someone else to marry me!" As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at her.
"Lin Ziqiu, what nonsense are you talking about?" Zhong Xuexi was the first to react. There were only three unmarried men in the Zhong family. One of them was Zhong Zhiyang, who had already escaped.
Another one is her cousin Zhong Zhiyuan, who is only thirteen this year. The last one is her eldest brother Zhong Heyang, who is 28 this year. He is the youngest regiment commander in the army and is a recognized child of destiny with a bright future.
But her eldest brother stayed in the army and refused to go on a blind date. Over time, her grandmother just followed him.
Even Zhong Zhiyang looks down on Lin Ziqiu, so it is even more impossible for her elder brother to like her.
Li Guixiang was a little slow, and she realized it belatedly and said, "Zi Qiu, are you saying that you want to marry He Yang?"
Lin Ziqiu nodded and looked at Zhong Heyang: "It's my fault that I didn't teach you. Zhong Zhiyang ran away, so you have to marry me instead."
Her clear voice was calm, and people could feel her determination. Everyone was stunned again.
"You're just dreaming! He Yang is already a group leader at such a young age. Is he worthy of her?"
"My wife has become my sister-in-law. If Zhong Zhiyang comes back and finds out about this, he'll have a heart attack. This Lin Ziqiu is really scheming!"
"Alas! This girl is quite pitiful. She has been wandering outside for more than ten years. She finally came back only to find that her mother had died a long time ago... But He Yang doesn't even like Commander Ruan's daughter... I think it's doomed..."
