Chapter 1: I'm in a Book
The large courtyard in Siwu Hutong was particularly noisy and bustling today.
It was time for dinner, and several people squatted on the steps with two large bowls in their hands to watch the fun.
"Jiang Cheng, let's go inside and talk."
Jiang Cheng lowered his head and shook his head, saying stubbornly: "No! There are too many people."
Lin Chengyuan's mouth twitched slightly. How could he not know that there were so many people? He just wanted to avoid them.
Is the person in front of him a blockhead or is he trying to use the crowd to silence him? I didn't expect Jiang Cheng to be so scheming!
But now that things have come to this, Lin Chengyuan doesn't think he has done anything wrong, so he just says what he wants to say.
"Jiang Cheng, He Dan and I have obtained our marriage certificate with the approval of the organization. We are now a legal couple."
"After we met once, I returned to the team. We didn't even have a wedding. Although you have lived in our Lin family for three years, you are not my wife."
Jiang Cheng put his legs together, his back slightly hunched, and looked at Lin Chengyuan in front of him through his thick bangs.
He is about 1.8 meters tall, looks like a pretty boy, with a fair complexion and red lips.
So this is the hero in the book! He has a face that is the square of a pretty boy and a scumbag.
"Jiang Cheng, do you understand?"
Lin Chengyuan's eyes were filled with annoyance. The woman in front of him was like a wooden stake, illiterate, and old-fashioned. How could she be worthy of being his wife! "If you don't plan to marry me, why did you ask me to wait for you three years ago? Why didn't you stop me from moving into the Lin family three years ago?"
Jiang Cheng lowered his head, holding the whitened corners of his clothes with both hands in front of him, and his voice was muffled and tense.
Oh! I got burned by the water and my throat feels so uncomfortable.
Lin Chengyuan was stumped by the question.
He never thought that the taciturn Jiang Cheng would refute. In his opinion, Jiang Cheng should agree immediately after he said it.
It seemed that his marriage was a big blow to her.
After all, she was a woman who liked him. Lin Chengyuan thought he was soft-hearted and explained:
"Jiang Cheng, I just sympathize with you. I don't mean anything else. No matter how you look at it, our relationship as husband and wife is not valid. I hope you won't get entangled."
Jiang Cheng lowered his head and curled his lips.
What the hell!
She wished she could stay away from this family!
A month ago, after completing the simultaneous interpretation work for the Great Power Summit, Jiang Cheng drove to the supermarket to do some shopping, preparing to stay at home for half a month to restore his burning brain cells.
As a result, she was hit by a large truck that ran a red light, and she was transported into the novel she was listening to while driving.
A disgusting novel she wished she had never opened.
The male lead is Lin Chengyuan and the female lead is He Dan.
The whole book tells the story of two people falling in love, getting married, and starting a business. It calls itself a sweet story.
Jiang Cheng’s character is the feudal and decadent wife that Lin Chengyuan’s family married.
After the two met, Lin Chengyuan returned to the team urgently, and Jiang Cheng moved into the Lin family as Lin Chengyuan's wife and stayed there for three years.
For three years, she took care of the Lin family, young and old, working like a man and never complaining.
Lin Chengyuan had not returned for three years. When he came back, he brought He Dan, who had already obtained a marriage certificate and was claiming freedom of marriage.
The disgusting plot begins here. The entire Lin family PUAs Jiang Cheng, making Jiang Cheng willingly stay in the old Lin family and continue to be their nanny.
Lin Chengyuan's parents disgustingly adopted Jiang Cheng as their goddaughter. When Lin Chengyuan encountered difficulties in starting a business, they gave Jiang Cheng to a 60-year-old man! Of course, the book embellished the plot, and Jiang Cheng was willing.
She was listening to the book at that time and she felt that even a hundred "Pah"s were not enough to express her disgust.
A month ago, the original owner died quietly due to overwork and being caught in the rain and a fever.
If the car she was driving when the accident happened had not become her space and there were antipyretics in the car, she would have been burned to death as soon as she arrived.
Jiang Cheng in the middle of the yard still had his head down, looking cowardly, his long hair covering half of his face, and he looked dull and old.
The clothes on her body were washed white and full of patches, which made Lin Chengyuan feel disgusted.
A woman is so sloppy that she is not even as sloppy as He Dan.
Thinking of this, Lin Chengyuan looked at He Dan who was standing beside him and smiling gently. She hadn't said a word and looked at him with trust in her eyes.
They smiled at each other, beautifully and sweetly.
In contrast, Lin Chengyuan felt even more disgusted with Jiang Cheng in front of him.
Not speaking? Acting pitiful? Is this an attempt to gain sympathy? This is really a low-brow approach.
"I don't want to get involved, I just want to ask--"
The silent Jiang Cheng suddenly looked up and asked with all his courage: "Then what are my three years worth? Am I unlucky?"
“Puff!”
"Cough, cough, cough!" The neighbors who were watching the excitement in the yard some spat out their food, and some choked on water.
This is such an interesting statement!
That would be bad luck.
Lin Chengyuan, who was questioned, looked unhappy, and he scolded with a gloomy face: "Do you have to make it so ugly?"
"Make a fuss?"
"Asking questions you're too embarrassed to answer is making trouble?"
Jiang Cheng looked at the other members of the Lin family and asked, "Do you also think I'm making a fuss?"
Mother Lin came over first and patted Lin Chengyuan in a fake manner.
"Ayuan, I don't allow you to say that about Jiang Cheng!"
"Chengcheng, I have long regarded you as my own daughter. Mommy can't bear to part with you!"
As soon as Lin's mother opened her mouth, those in the compound who disdained Lin Chengyuan's style changed their minds a lot.
It seems that the Lin family is still sensible.
Jiang Cheng also looked at Lin's mother with a touched expression, and complained in his heart: How shameless!
"Chengcheng, this is a new society. There's nothing wrong with them loving each other freely, and there's nothing wrong with you either. It's all my mother's fault. If you want to blame someone, blame me!"
"Okay! Then it's your fault that the top beam is not straight and the bottom beam is crooked."
Mother Lin: ????
Jiang Cheng still looked dumbfounded, looking at the stunned mother Lin calmly and said:
"You said let me blame you."
The corners of Lin's mother's eyes twitched and a look of disgust flashed across her eyes. What a fool.
"Chengcheng, grandma can't bear to let you go either. Why don't you stay with us and be our daughter or granddaughter? We can still be a family!"
Grandma Lin, with her white hair combed meticulously and a cane in her hand, spoke.
Jiang Cheng secretly thought: The ultimate old white lotus has appeared!
"Grandma, you are so kind! How much dowry will you prepare for me?"
Old Mrs. Lin frowned slightly.
"What dowry?"
Jiang Cheng rubbed the corner of his clothes and asked in confusion: "Didn't you say that you would treat me as your daughter or granddaughter? I have been delayed for three years. I am already 20 years old and it is time for me to get married. Since you are my mother's family, won't you give me a dowry?"
Old Mrs. Lin looked unhappy.
She had never thought about getting Jiang Cheng married, let alone a dowry.
Dear daughter and dear granddaughter were just words to deceive Jiang Cheng.
"Chengcheng, you hurt grandma's heart so much! Grandma treats you sincerely, but you only care about money?"
Jiang Cheng still looked at a loss, and said honestly: "Talking about money hurts feelings, but if we don't talk about money, how would I know that you have feelings? Did grandma lie to me just now?"
Grandma Lin looked like she was electrocuted, and all the wrinkles on her old face were shaking.
Mother Lin, who was standing by, quickly stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Cheng's arm with a sad look on her face.
"Chengcheng, if I had money, I would definitely prepare a decent dowry for you! You know the situation at home, so wait for two years, and I'll save up a dowry for you, okay?"
"I really don't want you to go out and suffer. You're a woman, and there's no one left in the Jiang family. Where can you go? Just be a daughter to me. Let's live a good life as a family like before."
Jiang Cheng silently pulled his arm away. Mother Lin was very nervous, as she always felt that the person in front of her was a little out of control.
It should be fine.
She knew how much Jiang Cheng liked Lin Chengyuan.
Mother Lin's heart, which had been lifted high, finally dropped.
"Aunt Lin, bring me to the Lin family."
"Before you said I was your sister-in-law and gave me to Lin Jiaojiao as a dowry."
"Now that you have a real sister-in-law coming in, you can take care of her!"
Mother Lin's heart skipped a beat and her pupils trembled.
Jiang Cheng actually told the story about the compensation! "They dare to ask for the compensation from the Jiang family. They are really shameless."
"See? This is my real daughter. She has to save up all other people's money for her dowry!"
"What you just said is just to fool fools!"
"Fool" Jiang Cheng: Brother, even though you are scolding me, you are right!
