After leaving the aquarium, they went to a small island and looked at the place where the troops had been stationed before. The island was very large and there were many signs of life, but there was nothing much to see.
Zhang Weifang and Lu Shi stayed outside for a week before returning. This trip was a slow one, so they were not too tiring.
After resting at home for two days, Zhang Weifang walked towards his brother's house. As soon as he entered, he found the house quiet.
"Weiren, Wang Xia is not here?"
Zhang Weiren was obviously relieved:
"I went back to Taipei the day before yesterday. I'm already scared of her. People come to complain every day."
Zhang Weifang was puzzled as to what had happened this time:
"What's the reason this time?"
"It's all because of her heroic spirit."
It turned out that Wang Xia had recently gotten together with Li Yanzhen, and the two of them criticized stepmother Liang Qing together. Wang Xia, in particular, spoke directly in front of Zhang Weiren, saying that he was unkind, that he was bewitched by a vixen, and that he could not distinguish right from wrong.
Zhang Weiren was so angry that he immediately called his son and asked him to take the girl away. With this daughter-in-law, he felt that his life was getting worse and worse.
Zhang Shijie also knew his wife's character, so he took her back directly.
Before leaving, Zhang Weiren repeatedly emphasized:
"Don't come back here often in the future. I'm old now and I just want to live out my retirement in peace and quiet."
After Wang Xia left, the neighbors were overjoyed because they finally didn't have to endure her torture anymore.
In the neighborhood behind, Maotu said at home with a gloating look:
"Weicun, look at your brother's wife. She's a cultured person, but she's almost bringing shame to your brother."
Zhang Weicun smiled, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, with a hint of pride on his face:
"Hey, don't say that outside. No one can be as lucky as our Lingling."
"Yes, Lingling is still promising."
The couple chatted happily, their tone full of satisfaction.
After Zhang Lingling got married, Wang Fuzi kept urging her daughter to find a partner:
"You should look further ahead and choose someone who is rich. Don't settle for someone with poor conditions."
Zhang Yuelin remained silent. She knew that marriage required equal status. With her family's financial situation so poor, how could she possibly find a wealthy man? She might as well let nature take its course.
Wang Fuzi knew that her sister-in-law ran a matchmaking agency, so she called her and asked her to help Zhang Yuelin find a partner.
In fact, Zhang Weifang has never wanted to interfere in the marriage and love of her relatives, as married life is ever-changing.
If they didn't live well in the future, or didn't meet her expectations, it would be her fault. Besides, she didn't want to bear the consequences.
However, since Wang Fuzi called, she couldn't just ignore it, so Zhang Weifang had to politely refuse:
"Fuzi, Yuelin has a job in the county. Is she willing to come to the city to find a partner? What will happen to her job then?"
Wang Fuzi didn't understand what she meant and kept urging her:
"Sister, don't worry about her. I have the final say in family matters. Please help me find someone with good conditions. At least he should have a house and a job that's not too bad. It's best if he's a regular employee."
Zhang Weifang could only agree first:
"Okay, I'll tell you when I find something suitable."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Weifang immediately opened Zhang Yuelin’s red line chart. She found that sometimes, people really have to believe in fate.
Zhang Yuelin’s three red lines are not good. The one that ties her the most is the person she loves but cannot get. Even if the two of them really get married, this man will not like her.
The man corresponding to the second red line is an orphan. He is very capable at work and is polite in front of outsiders. However, after marriage, it is discovered that he is selfish, stingy, and has no empathy.
The last one can be said to be relatively better among the three, but it is also unsatisfactory. The man's family conditions are not good, and the boy himself is relatively kind and filial, but his conditions in all aspects are average.
After two people get married, they won’t be too rich, but they will be able to live an ordinary life, and they will quarrel all their lives.
The compatibility and happiness levels of both people are 65, which can only be considered okay.
Zhang Weifang sighed after reading it. None of them were really suitable. If he had to choose, he could only choose the third one, but Wang Fuzi probably wouldn't agree.
Zhang Weifang put her mind at ease and planned to talk about this matter later, otherwise she was really afraid that Wang Fuzi would turn against her.
What everyone didn’t know was that at this time, Zhang Yuelin, who worked in the county town, had just experienced a heartbreak.
She has always had a crush on a high school classmate, but unfortunately the boy doesn't like her, and she has changed girlfriends one after another.
Recently, the two met again. She was so happy that she thought it was fate, so they got together without thinking. As a result, a week later, the boy told her that he had reunited with his ex-girlfriend.
Zhang Yuelin has been oppressed by her mother since she was a child, so she has some weaknesses in her character. Even if she was dumped or cheated, she would just cry secretly and then forget it.
She didn't go to settle the score with the man because she felt that doing so would make her lose face.
It is said that character determines destiny. If this happened to Zhang Nailin, she would have to skin him alive to vent her anger.
In the winter, when the old lady celebrated her birthday, everyone gathered together again. This time, several elders jokingly asked:
"Yuelin, it's time for you to find a partner. Lingling, who is a year younger than you, is already married."
Zhang Yuelin sat up straight and suddenly said:
"Second Aunt, I've got a boyfriend."
Wang Fuzi rushed over immediately:
"What? Where are you from? How old are you?"
"My name is Cui Dong. He's from Heping County and is the same age as me."
As soon as Zhang Weifang heard the name, she knew it was the third person on the red line diagram. The rest of the information instantly jumped into her mind:
"The boy's family has a diabetic mother, a father who married into the family, and an older sister who got pregnant out of wedlock. Their conditions are average, but they're a relatively simple family, and they're from the village."
Zhang Yuelin continued to introduce:
"Cui Dong is also a teacher in our school, teaching mathematics."
"Oh? It's the teacher!" When everyone heard it was the teacher, smiles appeared on their faces.
In their opinion, this is a pretty good career choice. After all, the profession of teacher is not only stable but also respected.
More importantly, since both of them are teachers, they will definitely have a lot of common topics and can exchange teaching experiences and share interesting stories about their students.
In this way, the relationship between the two can be better maintained. Thinking of this, everyone can't help but become more optimistic about this marriage.
Only Wang Fuzi looked unhappy:
"His family is so far away, where will he settle down in the future? Can he afford to buy a house? I can't get married and still rent a house, right?"
