A chaotic house, a perfect couple

After the commotion that afternoon, the news that Yu Junsheng was going on a blind date quickly spread throughout the entire compound, making all kinds of people with ideas eager to make a move.

Some, like Chang Dafen, who had always looked down on Yu Junsheng, were jealous. Seeing that Yu Junsheng was about to find a partner, and her outstanding son was actually lagging behind, she couldn't accept it. So she immediately asked people to introduce a partner to her eldest son, Zheng Haiyang, so that he wouldn't fall behind Yu Junsheng.

Some people felt regretful, such as those who had their eyes on the two houses in the east wing. They secretly hated themselves for being a step too late. If they had known earlier, they would have introduced their relatives to the boy from the Yu family. That way, they could have benefited from it. Some people were unwilling to give up and ran to Yu Junsheng to complain.

There were also people whose hearts were broken and they cried for days at home, but that’s not mentioned for now.

No matter how people in the yard tried to test him with words, Yu Junsheng just continued to live his life as usual. Seeing his calmness, the neighbors in the yard secretly murmured, "This kid from the Yu family is about to find a girlfriend, but he acts like nothing happened. Why isn't he excited at all?"

Aunt Hao also wondered if Yu Junsheng was not very satisfied with the person she introduced.

Aunt Hao wasn't unhappy, but she was worried about Yu Junsheng. If this one didn't suit him, where else could he find someone else? She had asked around before, but when she heard about Yu Junsheng's family situation, she just shook her head. She had searched her own circle for Jiang Qiubai before finding her.

Hey, Junsheng is a good kid in every way except that he has no relatives. Now that his parents are gone, and there is no one to help out at home, wouldn't it be hard to find someone?

In the tube-shaped buildings in the food factory’s staff quarters, some people are also worried about finding their true love.

On the Dong family’s balcony on the third floor, a thin figure suddenly woke up from a nightmare.

Cheng Jiajia sat up and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

She had traveled through time ten days ago. The original owner, now eighteen, had grown up with her grandparents. After their unexpected death, she found it difficult to survive as an orphan in the village, so she went to live with her biological mother, who had remarried in Beicheng, a city in the neighboring province. As Beicheng approached, the original owner slipped and fell, and just then, Cheng Jiajia traveled through time.

In the original owner's memory, her biological mother remarried a worker at the North City Food Factory. Cheng Jiajia asked around and finally found the food factory's staff quarters.

After his biological mother Liang Shuangyue remarried, she gave birth to another boy. The couple lived a comfortable life with their son and daughter, and naturally did not want an extra person like me to disturb their lives.

My biological mother didn't welcome me, and my stepfather was a smiling tiger. These two people had no choice but to take me in. They originally wanted to sell me to a fool in exchange for a high price of betrothal gift.

After being humiliated by her in front of everyone and crying several times, she was no longer willing to think of anything evil. Now she only wanted to find a decent family to marry her off to and send her far away so that she wouldn't be an eyesore.

I don’t know if her mother felt guilty or wanted to prove that she had not been harsh on her eldest daughter, but she has been trying hard to find someone to introduce her to a husband these days.

Regardless of the reason, Cheng Jiajia didn't object to this arrangement. Going back to the village was impossible. She had never farmed before, so how would she survive in the village?

If I stayed in the city, I would either have to find a job or marry someone. I had no connections, no money, and no idea what was happening in the city. Finding a job would be incredibly difficult.

After weighing the pros and cons, Cheng Jiajia decided to stay in the city by getting married. After excluding those who were remarried with children and old widowers, she finally met a young man who was quite satisfactory.

The man's name is Zheng Haiyang, a formal worker in a machinery factory. He lives in the factory's staff quarters and has a widowed mother and three younger siblings.

Although it seems like a heavy burden, I know my own situation. I have a rural household registration and I don't have a job. Why would someone with better conditions choose a rural girl like me?

Originally, Cheng Jiajia was very satisfied with this blind date, and even specially "borrowed" a new set of clothes from her stepsister Dong Siwei to wear tomorrow.

Who would have thought that not only was I traveling through time, but I was also traveling through a book!

The one she wore was from a period novel she had read before.

The book tells the story of a married couple who develop feelings for each other but are forced to suppress their affection due to their respective families. Ultimately, they overcome numerous obstacles and live happily together. Because the plot was so disgusting, Cheng Jiajia only read the synopsis and the first few chapters before skimming through them, silently cursing the author's skewed values.

Who could have imagined that one day I would be transmigrated into such a stupid book?

She also became the hardworking wife in the male protagonist's memory who eventually worked herself to death.

That’s right, the male protagonist in the book is her blind date, Zheng Haiyang.

She, Cheng Jiajia, is nothing more than the male protagonist's ex-wife and a control group tool used to highlight the male protagonist's love for the female protagonist and their happy life together.

According to the plot, she chooses to marry the hero in order to stay in the city, and from then on, she becomes the Zheng family's housekeeper. Every day, she has to please her harsh mother-in-law and take care of her selfish and overbearing younger siblings. She works from dawn to dusk to serve the hero's family, not even daring to eat a full meal, and dedicates her life to this family with dedication.

After the male and female protagonists developed feelings for each other, he "wisely" died of illness, just in time to make room for the female protagonist.

After the heroine married the hero with her child, the comparison between the heroine's married life and that of his ex-wife Cheng Jiajia further highlighted the heroine's happiness and the hero's love for her.

At this point, Cheng Jiajia's mission was successfully completed, and from then on she only lived in the male protagonist's memories.

Occasionally, the heroine will be jealous of her and throw a tantrum, adding some spice to the love life of the hero and heroine. Until the hero and heroine live happily together for the rest of their lives and have many children and grandchildren.

Bah! Isn't this just squeezing people dry and then dragging them out to whip their corpses from time to time?

This disgusting plot made Cheng Jiajia want to curse. What the hell is this?

Could she be such a selfless person?!

No, she must ruin tomorrow's blind date. Whoever wants to be the old nanny or the tool person in the control group can be the one to do it!

Blind date at a state-owned hotel.

The state-owned restaurant was much quieter after dinner time, with only two tables of guests remaining. The girl at one table was beautiful and bright, while the girl at the other table was dignified and quiet. They were both on blind dates.

One or two waiters were dawdling nearby with rags in their hands. They looked like they were wiping the tables, but they were actually eavesdropping on gossip with their ears perked up.

Last time, a man and a woman were on a blind date in their hotel. In the middle of the blind date, the lesbian came over crying and said that the man was cheating on her. The two lesbians almost got into a fight, and they watched a big scene.

The time before last, there was a couple who were about to get married, but a baby suddenly ran over and called the gay man "Dad", and the families of the man and the woman immediately started fighting.

Last time before last...

This kind of blind date is the most interesting, hehe!

Their intuition told them that there would be something interesting today!!

Cheng Jiajia, who was on a blind date, didn't think so. She was bored watching the dignified and generous girl at the next table, shyly glancing at the chattering man opposite. She really wanted to say, girl, since you like him so much, we can switch.

Really, she doesn't mind!

Before leaving, she deliberately picked out the piece of clothing with the most patches from the original owner's clothes and put it on. Unexpectedly, Zheng Haiyang's eyes lit up as soon as he saw her, and then he started to talk at length.

Failed!

Cheng Jiajia simply has no clear self-awareness. She is pretty and graduated from high school. Although she has a rural household registration, her stepfather is the director of a food factory and her biological mother is a worker. In the eyes of others, she can get some benefits and may get a job someday.

These conditions are much better than those of ordinary rural girls. If some men who think too much meet her, they will definitely hold on to her tightly.

Zheng Haiyang was quite confident that this rural woman would agree. "Comrade Cheng Jiajia, I'm a regular worker at the machinery factory. I earn 35 yuan a month. I have two rooms in the family compound. I have an elderly mother and three younger siblings at home, but you don't need to worry about them."

"My eldest brother has already graduated. I'll buy him a job and arrange his marriage, and then I won't have to worry about him. My second sister is also in junior high school. If she can get into college, I will definitely continue to support her. Otherwise, she will be like my eldest brother. After she graduates, I'll give her a job and a dowry, and then I won't have to worry about her anymore. But my youngest brother is a little young, and my mother is old now, so she can't do it. I need to worry about him a lot..."

I have even lowered myself to meet a country girl like her, so the wise ones should praise me. Zheng Haiyang, who thinks he is the leader of the younger generation in the compound, is very confident.

Cheng Jiajia was dumbfounded. Wait, how come this person said this job was like cabbage and could be bought by anyone he wanted?

Not to mention that due to the major downsizing in the past two years, jobs in the city are out of reach even with money. Even if Zheng Haiyang had the connections to get one, where would he get so much money?

She had inquired around and found out that a job in an ordinary workshop in North City would cost 5 to 600 yuan. What Zheng Haiyang said was as simple as drinking water. He would buy one for his eldest brother and one for his second sister in two or three years. That would be yuan in total. Where would he get so much money?

Don't even mention saving. His 35 yuan a month salary sounds high, but it wasn't 35 yuan when he first started. It's all been gradually increased. Besides, one salary has to provide for five people, including food, clothing, and schooling for his three younger siblings. How can he save any money?

As far as she knew, the Zheng family was just an ordinary working-class family, but they had no background.

What's going on? He boasted in front of her, acting like it was no big deal, like he was taking advantage. Is he expecting me to pay for his sister-in-law's job?

Cheng Jiajia's pretty face showed a hint of impatience, and she said arrogantly, "Comrade Zheng, I also have a few requirements for marriage."

"I'm not in good health. The doctor told me not to overwork. Don't even think about asking me to do any housework, or it'll shorten my lifespan. Also, your house isn't very big, and I'm a loner. I don't like having a whole family living together. Your mom must move out with your brothers and sisters! After you get married, you must hand over all your salary to your mom. You can't secretly use it. If you can meet my requirements, we can discuss other things."

Zheng Haiyang's smug expression suddenly stopped. He looked at Cheng Jiajia in disbelief, as if he was looking at a monster.

"Comrade Cheng Jiajia, this kind of thinking is unacceptable. I married you to take care of the family. You're a housewife and don't have a job. If you don't work, who will? My mother has worked hard all her life to raise us siblings. After I got married, we finally have a chance to enjoy a peaceful life. I can't let her suffer any more. We're already married and so old. Is it reasonable to let our parents suffer with us?"

"Women should be more diligent, otherwise it will be difficult to find a husband. My mother is old and my brothers and sisters are not yet adults. How can you kick them out? How can you be so selfish? Women should be more generous and tolerant to live a good life. And men are the pillars of the family. How can they hand over all their wages to my mother, my brothers and sisters..."

I thought a country girl would be easy to handle, and that marrying her would allow her to take care of the family and help ease my burden. I didn't expect her to be so tough. Look at what she's saying. Huh?

Even a woman with a formal job in the city wouldn't dare to say such outlandish things. Do they have any self-awareness at all? They are so ignorant!

Zheng Haiyang thought this woman was crazy!

The dignified woman at the other table nodded repeatedly. How could a lesbian not do housework? What would that mean? Being filial to one's parents-in-law is natural, but how could one kick out the mother-in-law and the brother-in-law and sister-in-law just after getting married? It's outrageous, absolutely outrageous! How could such a good gay man not find a good partner?

Zheng Haiyang's face was dark blue and he looked angry.

Cheng Jiajia saw this and was about to add fuel to the fire. Before she could even smile, she heard a righteous voice coming from the next table:

"I injured myself while taking care of a sick old man. Now I want to find a girl with a formal job to support me. After we get married, I will sell my job. You will work to support the family, and I will stay at home to take care of my health. Our family depends entirely on you."

"Housework? Of course you did it. What kind of man does housework? He would be laughed to death."

"Your salary can only be spent on me. Don't even think about using it to support your mother's family. Cut off contact with your brother as soon as possible. We, the Yu family, can't use our money to support outsiders."

Cheng Jiajia's eyelids twitched, and she felt that this way of speaking was extremely familiar.

Cheng Jiajia turned her head, and the two looked at each other, their eyes narrowed slightly——

Oh my goodness, we met our match?!

Crackling and sparks flying.

As a result, the next second, I heard that person smiling and saying to me:

"Comrade, let's be together!"

"I'm the only one in my family. There's no big family crowded together."

"Let's do the housework together!"

"After we get married, I will hand over all my salary to you."

The dignified girl was dumbfounded.

Zheng Haiyang's face turned completely black.

Cheng Jiajia, who was about to play a trick, was also stunned, looking at the tall and thin man opposite, with delicate and fair features and a pair of phoenix eyes.

This, this, a long-term meal ticket is delivered to your door?

The two waiters who were gossiping in the back were very excited. Sure enough, there was a big news!!!
