A time-travel story of a peasant girl getting rich

Chapter 164: What right does that damn girl have?

"I've been here a few times, and we've exchanged appointments. The date has been chosen, and we'll make a small appointment next month."

Old man Lin narrowed his eyes slightly. The eldest son was really cautious. The exchange was more intimate. This matter was basically a done deal, so he came to tell him. Why didn't he see it before? Among his sons, the most scheming one turned out to be this.

I originally thought that the fourth child was the smartest, but who knows... if he had trained the eldest child back then, would things be different?

It was the teacher who misled him, telling him that the fourth child was smart and talented, and that the family's future depended on him. He thought he had made the right choice and had a golden brick, but it turned out to be a lump of dirt.

"Engagement is a big deal, so if you need help, just let me know. There are some things that you brothers can do."

"There are many people in my village, enough. Xiao Ding, you know, there is not much to do. That day, Dad brought everyone together to make it lively."

Old man Lin choked. It’s all fun and bustle, but you think you’re my guest watching the show?

Bastard!

Song regretted it. If she had known Xiaomi would have such good fortune, Wanxiu and Fuqiang’s marriage would have been delayed for at least two years.

Now, Wanxiu's marriage is settled and Fuqiang is already married, so it's too late to say anything.

When several respected elders learned about this, it caused a huge uproar.

This is not just a happy event for the old Lin family, but for the whole clan. Their clan has not even had a scholar until now, and if Xiaomi gets married, she will definitely be a government official's wife.

No, she is the first-rank hereditary wife of a prince. Her husband, son, and grandson will all be marquises. What an honor, what wealth. In the future, they will all have to rely on her for support.

The overwhelming wealth and prosperity fell upon the Lin family, making them a little dazed.

Who doesn't want to have descendants who will continue to benefit from their family? In the past, I didn't dare to think about it because no one helped me. Now, who can say for sure? Even Dashan's two sons have a bright future. Who would believe that Xiaomi, who is so family-oriented, would ignore her parents' family after getting married?

"So, from now on I am the third uncle of the prince!"

Lin Dachuan and Lin Dahai were shocked by the news after they returned home from selling goods. Lin Dahai was even more happy when he thought about how the prince called him "Third Uncle" respectfully.

He straightened his clothes and stood up straight. From then on, he became a decent man.

Lin Dachuan was just like Song, he regretted nothing but that, he only had three children, two of whom were already engaged, so he didn't get any benefits at all. If he had waited for two years, just two years, he wouldn't have to marry Fuqiang to his current wife.

Fuqiang was enlightened late, and at his age, he still hasn't experienced anything. He learned from his fourth brother's lesson that one should establish a career before starting a family, because if he fails to establish a career, all the wives will be picked up. So he arranged a marriage for Fuqiang early, and when his wife came of age last year, he married her into the family.

The daughter-in-law is from the same village, and she is capable and down-to-earth. But she is just an ordinary village woman, ignorant and illiterate. If she is rich and powerful, and helps with social activities, she will not be accepted by the upper class.

Lin Fuqiang was thinking, if so, could he go to the prefectural capital to study with the prince? It would definitely be much better than the school in the county town.

He knew that he was old and that it was not easy for him to study, so he studied very hard. However, he started to study late, and as the books became more and more difficult, he found it more and more difficult.

He didn't dare tell his family about this. His parents had worked so hard to support them that they had wanted him to give up several times, intentionally or unintentionally, and go to the city to find a job, or make a living by copying books like his fourth uncle did.

Every time he pretended not to understand, only by passing the imperial examination could one succeed. Fourth Uncle was the best example, look at how he is living now, the most promising scholar in Linjia Village, who used to be disrespectful to everyone, but now everyone takes him seriously, he is a joke wherever he goes.

Lin Fuqiang secretly hated his parents for wanting him to live that kind of life and saying that they loved him. No matter what, he had to continue studying, and no one could stop him from embarking on the road to success.

My younger brother is the one who should drop out of school. He is naughty in school and never studies seriously. The teacher has taught him many times, but he never repents. But my parents chose to let him drop out of school. I used to think that my parents favored him more, but now I know that the one who is really favored is my younger brother.

He is not as stupid as his uncle. He will do whatever he is told. He must get close to the prince. So what if he is his uncle? He still relies on others. As long as he gets close to the prince, who will dare to give him a hard time?

They are not too far apart in age, so they must have many common interests and topics.

Since Lin Wanxiu found out about Lin Xiaomi's marriage partner, she locked herself in her room. Song knew her daughter was upset, so she didn't bother her and sent her dinner.

"Mom! I won't accept this! Why did that damn girl do that?"
