After the marriage, the charming educated youth is eye-catching

Machinery factory compound.

Zhang Xiumei pushed the braised pork on the table in front of Lin Ziqiu.

"Zi Qiu, you are already nineteen this year. Logically, you should be old enough to go to the countryside, but your younger sister loves you and doesn't want you to suffer in the countryside, so she gave you such a good marriage with the Zhong family."

"The old man of the Zhong family is the leader. His family is rich and powerful. If you marry him, you will enjoy endless wealth and glory."

Lin Ziqiu's hands on her knees tightened slightly. It seemed that Lin Mengyao had also been reborn, perhaps even earlier than she had been.

Yesterday, she and her ex-husband Shen Nanfeng divided their property, and in the evening she chartered a boat to celebrate. However, she encountered high waves, and when she opened her eyes again, she was back to the year she had spent in the countryside.

In her previous life, she finally found her biological father and thought that her hard work had finally paid off, but she unexpectedly received the news that her biological mother had passed away and her biological father had remarried.

The reason they brought her back was just to let her go to the countryside in place of Lin Mengyao.

In her previous life, the stepsister was eager to marry Zhong Zhiyang, the youngest son of the Zhong family. However, who would have thought that Zhong Zhiyang already had a lover, and eloped with his lover the day before their wedding.

Because of this, Lin Mengyao rarely goes out, for fear that others will point fingers at her.

Three years passed like this, and she finally got Zhong Zhiyang back, but was kicked out of the house.

Lin Ziqiu, who went to the countryside in her place, married the team leader's grandson shortly afterwards. After the college entrance examination was resumed in 1977, the couple were both admitted to Peking University and Tsinghua University. They took advantage of the reform and expanded the store, and the family business quickly spread across the country and abroad.

Before Lin Ziqiu even started eating, Lin Mengyao couldn't wait to speak, "Sister, you've suffered so much before, I can't bear to leave you..."

Seeing Lin Mengyao acting like a good sister, Lin Ziqiu said slowly, "Aunt Zhang, Yaoyao has never suffered hardship since she was a child. How dare I compete with her for marriage? If anything happens to her in the countryside, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. I'd better let her go."

Zhang Xiumei looked surprised. She didn't expect Lin Ziqiu to dare to refute her.

If Mengyao hadn't said that Zhong Zhiyang was all show and no substance but a rotten heart, she wouldn't have agreed to let her daughter go to the countryside. But if their family could marry into the Zhong family, then Lin Dahai might be able to become the workshop director, so this marriage would only benefit Lin Ziqiu.

She smiled and said, "Zi Qiu, you've been back home for over five years now, so you should know the Zhong family very well. This marriage was originally arranged by your mother and the Zhong family. Meng Yao was ignorant before and insisted on marrying into the family, but I really feel guilty about it."

"This is your aunt and father's compensation to you. I hope you can live a better life in the future."

Lin Ziqiu said with a forced smile: "Aunt Zhang, you're joking. Since my sister wants to get married, then let her be. I won't do anything like stealing someone's love."

Zhang Xiumei's face turned pale. This was the first time that someone, usually a submissive person, talked back to her. She was extremely angry for a moment, but her husband was sitting next to her, so she couldn't lose her temper.

Seeing that she disagreed, Lin Mengyao was anxious: "Sister, which girl in our compound doesn't want to marry him? The Zhong family is powerful, what are you dissatisfied with?"

"Besides, if you really go to the countryside, you have a weak personality and you're unfamiliar with the place. If you get bullied, no one will stand up for you."

Father Lin noticed Lin Ziqiu's dissatisfaction and said in a bad tone: "If it weren't for your Aunt Zhang's kindness and not wanting you to suffer, do you think you would have been able to get married?"

"If you don't want to get married, get out of here. I don't want a daughter like you!"

After seeing through the hypocrisy of this family in her previous life, Lin Ziqiu was no longer the silly girl who hoped to gain her father's approval.

She ate a piece of meat, stood up and said, "Since it's not my turn, then let the one who gets it marry."

"Bang!" Father Lin slammed his chopsticks on the table in anger, "Don't be so ungrateful!"

Zhang Xiumei was afraid of angering her, and then she would not marry him, and she would not be able to explain to the Zhong family.

She hurried forward and grabbed Lin Ziqiu, saying in a gentle voice, "Ziqiu, you're grown up now, and you know we can't afford to offend the Zhong family. As long as you nod, I'll agree to any conditions you ask."

Lin Ziqiu turned to look at her, half-smiled and said, "Before my mother left me a sum of money, a total of 736.25 yuan. You must give it to me without a penny less, otherwise I will never marry you!"

In her previous life, because she was abducted by human traffickers, her mother became sick with worry, so her father added something to the medicine she often took, and she eventually died of poisoning.

Not long after, Zhang Xiumei moved into the staff housing complex, and the money naturally went into her pocket.

As soon as these words came out, Lin Mengyao immediately couldn't sit still and subconsciously retorted: "No!"

This money was her dowry, and she was hoping to use it to live a comfortable life in the countryside. How could it be taken away so easily by Lin Ziqiu?

Lin Ziqiu asked back: "This is what my mother left me, why do you object?"

At this time, Zhang Xiumei's son put down his chopsticks and said disdainfully: "Second sister, what's the point of stealing a dead person's money? If she wants it, just give it to her. After all, our family is not short of money."

Hearing this, Lin Mengyao frowned and glared at him.

Before she could refute, she heard a "slap" sound, and Lin Ziqiu slapped Lin Xiaojun hard. His fair face quickly turned red, and even the mouthful of rice he had just swallowed came out.

Lin Xiaojun had been pampered since he was a child and had never been beaten. At this moment, he covered his face with his hands and burst into tears in disbelief.

Zhang Xiumei held him in her arms distressedly, her voice trembling with anger, "Lin Ziqiu, are you having a seizure today? Why did you hit Xiaojun?! Was he wrong?"

Lin Ziqiu watched this scene with cold eyes and said softly, "He enjoys everything my mother left behind, but in his heart he thinks my mother is unlucky. I think he is no different from an animal!"

Father Lin glared disapprovingly at his daughter, with whom he had no feelings, "After all, he is still your brother. You don't have to hit him."

Lin Ziqiu snorted coldly, facing his anger without fear. "Tsk, you're already heartbroken? Let me tell you, I'm not just scolding him, I'm scolding you too! You're a whole family of heartless beasts!"

Lin Mengyao swallowed her saliva. Was this still the soft persimmon she had been in her previous life? But thinking back to her past life, whenever her short-lived mother was mentioned, Lin Ziqiu would bite people everywhere like a mad dog.

Father Lin was so angry that he raised the bowl and wanted to throw it at Zhang Xiumei. Zhang Xiumei quickly stopped him and said, "Zi Qiu, Xiaojun was wrong just now. Your brother is young and ignorant. You are doing the right thing in educating him."

"But you all have the surname Lin, and you're a family. I sincerely hope you can live a good life in the future. I will give you this money as your dowry."

Compared to the few hundred dollars, Zhang Xiumei hopes that the Lin family can climb up the big tree of the Zhong family. Then she will get much more than the few hundred dollars.

Lin Ziqiu rubbed his sore palms and nodded expressionlessly.
