Quick Wear: Explosive Change! The cannon fodder female supporting role is done with it

Chapter 321: The Republic of China: The Countryside Wife and the Cold Commander 22
Guan Jingchong nodded: "Don't be afraid, Auntie won't make things difficult for you."

Lin Zhi could only smile and nod: "That's good, but when will the concubine arrive? What should I prepare?"

Guan Jingchong pondered: "If you want to prepare, you can buy some cakes on the day she comes, and let Aunt Liu prepare the rest."

Lin Zhi nodded, and seeing that he was about to get busy, she didn't bother him anymore and left the study with the book. As for the fact that Aunt Zou used Uncle Quan to kill Mrs. Guan, the evidence was naturally lost after so many years, but the doctor who gave Feng Han medicine and gave him the medicine was still there.

She could send someone to check first, and it would be better if the doctor could admit it to Guan Jingchong himself.

When Aunt Liu heard that Aunt Zou was coming, she was also very happy. She had someone clean up another small building next to the villa, saying that the building was originally prepared for Aunt Zou. Aunt Zou liked quietness, so she cleaned up the house for her.

Lin Zhi took a look and found the interior well decorated and full of good things. She gritted her teeth and decided to find out the matter quickly.

She doesn't deserve these things at all.

During these three days, Guan Jingchong and she continued to travel back and forth between the outskirts of the city, the orphanage and the commander's residence. However, one time when she was waiting for Guan Jingchong, she saw Guan Junzhang, and she took two steps towards him with an idea in her mind. He immediately turned around in disgust and returned to school.

It looked like he didn't want anything to do with her at all.

Lin Zhi just raised her eyebrows and stopped, waiting for Guan Jingchong's military vehicle to arrive, then got in the vehicle and went back home with him without telling him about this.

Guan Jingchong said that he would arrive in five days, but in fact, early in the morning of the third day, Madam Zou was escorted to the door by Uncle Quan. She was attending classes in the nursery school at the time. It was not until the afternoon when Guan Jingchong came back from outside the city to pick her up and they returned home that they found out.

The car stopped in front of the fountain. As soon as the two got out, they saw a tall and thin middle-aged woman in her forties wearing a dark green cheongsam, with a long face and high jawbone, walking out of the house with a smile.

"Aunt?" Guan Jingchong was surprised.

Aunt Zou stepped forward quickly, tears welling up in her eyes, and looked him up and down: "Jing Chong, look at you, you are thinner and darker than during the Qingming Festival. I told you to have a good rest and let the people below do the work, didn't you listen?"

Guan Jingchong just said: "There are some things I have to do personally. You should tell me in advance and have someone pick you up."

Mrs. Zou didn't care: "You are so busy, I can just call a rickshaw." She wiped her tears and looked at Lin Zhi who was standing next to him, "Who is this..." Her eyes were puzzled and uncertain.

Guan Jingchong: "Linzhi, the marriage that my father arranged was with her."

Aunt Zou suddenly realized something, and stepped forward to hold Lin Zhi's hand, smiling sincerely and warmly: "It turns out to be you, you are so beautiful. When you got off the car just now, I thought you were a young lady from some family and I didn't dare to recognize you. You look so good that Jun Zhang is really lucky."

His face suddenly turned sad again, and he looked at her with a distressed look on his face: "I heard that your mother died when you were young, and your father was crushed by the beam of the house due to the flood in your hometown... Poor child, it's really hard for you to come all the way from Hunan and Guizhou to find here."

Every word was unfriendly, and seemed to pierce Linzhi's heart like a sharp knife.

Guan Jingchong frowned, thinking that it was inappropriate for his aunt to say this, but since she was his elder after all, he was not in a position to speak for the moment.

"But don't worry, when you marry Junzhang in the future, I will treat you like my own daughter." The smile on his face was gentle and friendly.

Lin Zhi's smile did not reach her eyes: "Madam Zou did not expect that you are different from the Second Young Master. When Brother Jing Chong told the Second Young Master about the marriage, he directly said that he would not marry an old-fashioned woman like me. He felt that I was not worthy of him because I had never been abroad. I was afraid that you looked down on me like him."

"I feel relieved when you say that." Aunt Zou suddenly looked upset. For so many years, outsiders have called her the Second Madam or Second Lady, and very few people have called her Aunt Madam to her face... What's more, this woman said bad things about her son.

When they met for the first time, she decisively looked down on Lin Zhi and let go of her hand with a smile: "Don't worry."

He turned and talked to Guan Jingchong, "Come in quickly, I brought your favorite Liuji nuts this time." He walked into the house while talking and laughing, and when he passed by Uncle Quan who was standing beside them with a smile, Guan Jingchong greeted him.

Lin Zhi followed slowly behind and glanced at Uncle Quan, who was of medium build, had a mustache, was chubby and looked very kind, but was actually a very evil person.

He just nodded as a greeting and went into the house.

Aunt Zou took out the things she brought from Chengdu as if she were presenting treasures. The room was filled with her laughter. Guan Jingchong didn't say much, but he nodded in agreement as he sat aside.

During this period, Aunt Zou did not forget Linzhi and gave her some ointments and cosmetics, saying that these were used by all the young ladies.

Lin Zhi accepted it with a smile, and only went to the building next door when Guan Jingchong asked her to go to his residence to take a look.

Mrs. Zou rested, and Lin Zhi went upstairs. Not long after, there was a knock on the door. It was Guan Jingchong who opened the door. He said, "Don't pay attention to what Auntie said just now. She is usually very thoughtful in what she says. I guess she was tired from the journey and didn't pay attention to what she said."

Lin Zhi nodded: "I don't mind, but." She looked up at him and said, "I think the concubine probably doesn't want a daughter-in-law like me."

She lowered her eyes and said, "If my son were to marry, I would definitely hope that he would marry a woman with a good family background and who could help me. It would be even better if the woman was well-educated and well-mannered."

"I have no relatives at home, and my family situation is ..."

"Only men without any ability would always think of finding a wife with a good family background."

Guan Jingchong interrupted her, "Besides, you've been to school and are now learning English, so why belittle yourself? Don't think too much. Call Junzhang back tomorrow, and your plan will work out."

Looking at her, he said, "Take a rest first and come downstairs to eat later."

Lin Zhi was stared at by him and could only nod, and he turned and left. However, his idea was good, but neither the mother and son nor she would let the marriage succeed.

For dinner, many of Aunt Zou’s favorite dishes were prepared. She was also full of witty remarks at the table, and from time to time she picked up food for Guan Jingchong, showing that she loved him very much.

After dinner, they chatted in the living room for a while. Mrs. Zou went to rest, and the two of them returned to their room.

The next morning, Lin Zhi and Guan Jingchong had dinner and went out, but met Aunt Zou who had just gotten up in the yard. She asked them where they were going in confusion. After learning that Lin Zhi had gone to the orphanage to ask for leave and Guan Jingchong had gone out of the city to discuss some matters, she asked them to call Guan Junzhang back when they came back.

He watched with a smile as the two of them got into the car together, especially when Lin Zhi's skirt was stepped on when getting in the car. Guan Jingchong held her tightly with one hand to steady her. Then the two of them got in the car and left.

She narrowed her eyes and said, "Uncle Quan, do you think that Lin Zhi and the young master are too close?"
