After being reborn, I decisively broke off my engagement and married a cold-faced military young mas

Tell him to send the money back immediately so they can return it.

“Otherwise, they’ll spread the word everywhere that we lent out someone’s daughter’s dowry, and our family’s reputation will be ruined. How will you find a wife then?”

Lu Jiangting sighed and said, "I received two months' salary, but it's still not enough to pay back three hundred yuan. We agreed on three months, but that hasn't been done yet."

"Oh dear, you really did it in three months? Your father and I can't hold our heads up in the village anymore. We're old folks, let people talk, we can ignore it. But what about you? If your reputation is ruined, how will you ever get married?"

"I..." He still wanted to win Yuyao back.

However, he didn't dare to say it.

He made up an excuse to appease his parents.

"You don't need to worry about me getting married. I'll find one in the city, and I'll bring you a city wife later."

"Huh? He's interested in you?"

Lu Jiangting: "..."

He used to be his parents' pride. They never said he was unworthy of anyone else, and they never worried about him getting married.

Could it be that the villagers' words were so harsh that they were all frightened?

Lu Jiangting thought for a moment and said, "City people don't like listening to the gossip of village women. They come from a highly educated family, and the women went to university. They are well-educated and reasonable. After I get married in the city, I will buy a house there and bring you and Dad to the city to enjoy a comfortable life. Let the villagers say what they want; just don't listen to them."

Hearing him say that, Wang Cuilan thought he had already found a boyfriend in the city.

When she heard the gossip in the village, she retorted, "My son found a girlfriend from the city. She comes from a highly educated family, went to university, and is a well-educated and sensible young lady."

She added, "My son said that after he gets married, he will buy a house in the city and bring his father and me to live a comfortable life there."

Ye Lian spat out a mouthful of sunflower seed shells, stretched out her hand and laughed, "Wow, you're amazing! You can marry a rich girl from the city and buy a house. What about the money you owe us... Hey, don't run away!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Someone said, "I think she's just bragging. They can't even pay back your family's three hundred yuan, and she wants to marry a city girl? Pshaw!"

Whether the villagers believed it or not, the story reached Fang Qing's ears.

She immediately felt a sense of crisis.

If this is true, if Lu Jiangting really found a wife in the city, bought a house, and brought his parents over, what will she do?

What will happen to her and her son?

No matter the relationship, regular contact is essential to maintaining it.

However, after three to five years of no contact, Wang Jianjun's gratitude towards Lu Jiangting gradually faded.

What should she do then?

No, she couldn't let that happen.

……

"Xiao Lin, can you check if these numbers are correct?"

Lin Yuyao smiled as she looked at the accounts, and after a moment she laughed and said, "Yes, yes, there are three more books."

"These are spares, in case there are any defective products. Use these three to make up for it. If there are more than three defective products, write them down and tell me later, and I will report it to the factory."

"Row."

Lin Yuyao turned around and handed another small notebook to the delivery man, saying, "This is the next batch of goods we're going to receive."

"Okay, I'll bring it over another day."

The man drove off in his delivery truck, and Lin Yuyao called over Sister Zhou and Sister Liu to come and help.

Zhou Jing said a few words to Liu Yihuan, then jogged to the back of the bookstore to help Lin Yuyao move books.

"Xiao Lin, you seem to be in a good mood lately, you're smiling more often."

Lin Yuyao smiled, thinking to herself, "Of course."

How could she not be happy when the problem that was giving her a headache was solved?

Zhou Jing lowered her voice and asked, "Is the trouble resolved?"

Lin Yuyao nodded and whispered, "It will be resolved on Monday."

"I knew it! When you first came here, you were always looking gloomy. I thought you were just naturally averse to smiling. But then again, if something bad is going on, I don't necessarily think I can smile either."

Looking back on that period, she was actually under a lot of pressure.

She was fooled by Lu Jiangting and actually believed that the marriage certificate had been issued.

She knew that military marriages were difficult to end.

Lu Jiangting is so stubborn, it's impossible for him to agree to a divorce on his own.

She couldn't possibly wait until he retired.

If she really can't get a divorce, she doesn't know what to do.

During this time, she also had to endure harassment from Lu Jiangting.

Fu Huaiyi also said that while marital sex is not permitted, it is very difficult to obtain evidence.

Under immense pressure, she couldn't tell outsiders, so it would be strange if she could laugh.

Now, she feels hopeful about the future.

It's truly like having free air.

While chatting with Zhou Jing, Lin Yuyao carried all the books into the house.

That wasn't the end of it; they also had to put the goods onto the bookshelves.

They release new products twice a week, and the other three days are spent on rotating shifts. They don't release new products on weekends, nor do they have any days off.

Unless it's something important, you need to ask your boss for permission beforehand.

The bookstore job isn't exactly busy, though.

Especially now, in the middle of summer, not many people come to the bookstore under the scorching sun. It's only a little busier in the cooler mornings and evenings.

There aren't many people during the day.

To be honest, this shop is quite busy. There are only three of them in the shop, and they have a lot to do, such as organizing bookshelves, stocking shelves, and registering customers.

They were covered in sweat after finishing the lesson.

The two quickly went under the fan to get some fresh air.

Liu Yihuan was still helping customers carry books, climbing up the tall stairs.

The books I found were rather obscure, so I put them on the top shelf.

Finally found it; the book was covered in a thick layer of dust.

"Wait a moment, let me wipe it for you."

"Okay, thank you so much, sister. It's kind of you to climb so high and search for so long."

Liu Yi smiled and said, "You're welcome. It's our job, it's what we should do."

The old man laughed and said, "I love coming here to buy books. The service is great. If I go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something and ask them to help me find it, their faces will be as long as a donkey's. I'm even worried that they'll crawl out from behind the counter and beat me up."

"Haha, old man, you're joking."

I'm not kidding, those service staff at the supply and marketing cooperative have permanent positions, they're really something.

They rarely hit you, but they can certainly give you a severe dressing-down.

The old man was so happy that he bought several books, two expensive notebooks, two fountain pens, and a bottle of ink.

They sell not only books, but also stationery.

Liu Yihuan said, "I don't know what this old man does, but he's quite rich. He often comes to buy books."

Lin Yuyao asked curiously, "What kind of books does he usually buy?"

"History books are mostly obscure and strange."

The sun was setting in the west, and their west-facing shop was unbearably hot.

As it was almost time to leave work, a tall figure blocked the sunlight from the doorway.

Zhou Jing hurriedly got up and asked with a smile, "Little Fu is here to exchange books again?"
