"It's pretty crazy, to say the least."
Yang Shujue said, "Don't you think her ideas are very extreme? No matter who provokes her, she will hold a grudge against them."
Just like Jingyu…
She had barely finished speaking when she received a death stare from Lin Jingyu.
Startled, she quickly skipped over that part and continued, "Zhang Aiguo ruined her reputation, and Zhang Tieguang and Wang Xuehua don't want her to come in. Given Zhao Qiaoyan's crazy nature, how can she let their family go?"
The fact that she dared to report the case to the police is enough to show that she is a ruthless person at heart, and when she goes crazy, she is willing to fight to the death, even if it means mutual destruction.
"Indeed."
Peng Shiyu thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "But why does she insist on marrying into the Zhang family? The Zhang family clearly doesn't want to marry her. If they force her to marry them, how can she have a good life in the future?"
"This... I don't know."
Yang Shujue shook her head gently, "I can't guess why she chose to live with a family that hates her. Maybe she has her own reasons."
I wouldn't joke about my own happiness. I think it's better for a woman to love herself.
If you don't even love yourself, isn't it ridiculous to expect others to love you?
"Shujue, what you said makes a lot of sense."
Peng Shiyu's face showed admiration and respect. "Zhao Zhiqing probably didn't think of this, so she always thought about how to compete with other people."
"Of course, you should see who said that."
Yang Shujue smiled radiantly and even proudly raised her chin.
Seeing her like this, everyone couldn't help but chuckle.
"I think Zhao Qiaoyan made the worst choice."
Mu Qiuyue commented, "Once she marries into the Zhang family, she can forget about ever having a peaceful life."
"Life is not easy for anyone."
Lin Jingyu suddenly spoke up, saying, "Especially for us women, life is even more difficult. The Zhang family really doesn't like her and hates her."
But we all know that the Zhang family wronged her first, so no matter what she does, everyone thinks it's justified.
As for whether the Zhang family's attitude is good or bad, she probably won't care. After all, with her current reputation, she won't have a good life no matter which family she marries into.
Even if she chooses to abort the child and wait to return to the city to remarry, who can guarantee that she will be happy in the future?
"Go back to the city? Don't even think about it."
Without thinking, Yang Shujue blurted out, "It will take at least seven or eight years, and she needs to be able to study and get into university, or her family needs to have the ability to transfer her back to the city. Otherwise, she is destined to live in the countryside for the rest of her life."
"Shujue, how did you know?"
Hearing such certainty, Mu Qiuyue looked surprised. "How come it seems like you already know when we can return to the city?"
"Uh, I was just guessing."
Yang Shujue looked embarrassed and gave an awkward laugh. "So many people go to the countryside every year now, it will definitely take a long time to go back."
Lin Jingyu: ...
This girl never learns her lesson; she dares to say anything.
Fortunately, Mu Qiuyue and the others were relatively easy to fool; if they had encountered other people, they probably wouldn't have been so easy to fool.
He smiled inwardly, too lazy to expose her lie.
Yang Shujue, who thought she had gotten through it, subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn't even notice the meaningful glance Lin Jingyu gave her.
Not to mention the commotion caused by Zhao Qiaoyan.
Back at the educated youth compound.
"Come to my house for dinner."
Lin Jingyu said to Mu Qiuyue, "The vegetables that Aunt Hongmei brought yesterday are still uneaten. They'll spoil if we don't eat them today. You don't have to be polite."
"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony with you."
Mu Qiuyue was eager to befriend Lin Jingyu, so she naturally wouldn't refuse.
"That's right, why are you being so polite with us? I haven't finished eating yet either."
Yang Shujue put her arm around her shoulder and said casually, "I'll go back and get it. It's easy to finish the leftovers if we eat together, so as not to waste them."
"I'll take it too."
Peng Shiyu then added, "We're having dinner together again."
Yesterday, they helped out at the village chief's house for a whole day.
That evening, the village chief's wife specially brought them a lot of leftover food from the banquet.
So everyone decided to get together and have another meal.
They agreed to go home separately.
Taking this opportunity, Lin Jingyu went to the vegetable garden and picked some vegetables.
When I returned, I found everyone already in my yard.
“One of you go to the front yard and ask either He or Wang if they have any pickled cabbage. If they do, bring some back.”
Lin Jingyu paused for a moment, then said, "Why don't we invite the two of them over as well? We eat the vegetables they grow every day, and it would be more lively with them around since we're sharing the food."
"I'll go."
Su Jingtian took the initiative to accept the task and went to the front yard.
Lin Jingyu handed the vegetable basket to Peng Qibo: "Pick the green beans and wash the cucumbers, then bring them in."
"Yeah, okay!"
Peng Qibo glanced at her with a smile and reached out to take it.
Lin Jingyu's ear tips started to burn again.
Avoiding his gaze, she beckoned Peng Shiyu, Yang Shujue, and Mu Qiuyue into the kitchen.
They busied themselves in the kitchen.
Braised pork belly with pickled cabbage, braised eggplant with green beans, cucumber salad, and mixed vegetables served at wedding banquets.
The portions of all four dishes were quite generous, and everyone finished their meals completely, ending up stuffed again.
"It's good to have meat to eat."
Su Jingtian leaned lazily against the bamboo chair.
He patted his belly and chuckled somewhat sheepishly, "It's a pity we patrolled for so many days and didn't even see a shadow of a wild boar. What a shame!"
