Reborn in the 1970s, remarried to a powerful but childless man, her scumbag husband is furious.

"Mom, did I do something wrong? I caused Fang Xinyou to get beaten up." Hearing the commotion at Fang Ting's house, Yun Shu said with some guilt.

If her mother hadn't brought her to their door, Fang Xinyou wouldn't have been beaten.

Although her clothes were torn, they could still be worn after being mended.

But when she heard Fang Xinyou's voice, it sounded like she really had been hit and was in a lot of pain.

At this moment, instead of feeling relieved, she began to doubt whether she had done something wrong.

After all, she was pampered by Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan since she was a child. Because of her sensible nature, her family never even said a harsh word to her, let alone hit her.

Therefore, in Yun Shu's view, being beaten by her family members was a double pain, both mentally and physically.

She was kind-hearted, and even though she was the one who was hurt, she still sympathized with Fang Xinyou.

Wenrou reached out and patted her head when she heard her daughter's words.

"This is not your fault, Xiao Shu. Fang Xinyou had impure thoughts and hurt you first. You don't need to blame yourself. She brought it on herself. We don't need to pity her."

She gently comforted her daughter, letting her know that kindness is not wrong, but we cannot give in blindly just because we are kind, as this will only embolden those who bully us.

Yun Shu nodded after hearing this, "I understand, Mom."

She kept those kind words in her heart, secretly thinking that if she encountered such a situation again, she would not be weak and would definitely make the person who bullied her apologize to her.

Although Yun Shu knew that she had her parents and uncles to protect her, she also knew that her family couldn't protect her forever. In the future, she would definitely become a person like her mother.

Yun Shu quickly forgot about this matter. During the New Year, she did not wear the clothes Yun Yao had given her, but instead wore the one Tan Lin had bought for them.

Although she knew her sister meant well, the dress was also something her sister liked, and she couldn't take it from her.

Soon, the joyful atmosphere of the New Year made Yun Shu and Yun Yao forget about the incident.

On New Year's Eve, the sound of firecrackers rang out outside.

There were people specifically assigned to set off firecrackers and even fireworks in the military compound, and they even went to watch the fireworks.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wenrou took the children to pay their respects to the old man, then to Wen Shuzhen's place, and then to Professor Peng's house.

Professor Peng's side, Peng Xiaowan and Hao Gang are with the children, while Peng Shao went to Guangdong Province a few days ago but encountered a heavy snowstorm on the way and won't be able to return for the Chinese New Year.

However, with Wenrou bringing the children over to play, making it lively and fun, Professor Peng was also happy.

"By the way, Xiaorou, do you remember Yin Suwen, who liked my brother? I heard she got married last month in our family compound, and not far away. I've run into her several times when I take the kids out lately."

After dinner, Peng Xiaowan and Wenrou watched the children having fun and started gossiping.

Hearing her mention this, Wenrou nodded, "I ran into it the first time I came in."

She had long forgotten about Yin Suwen. When she came in, she noticed a woman who looked very familiar staring at her, so she couldn't help but glance at her a few times.

At that time, she couldn't remember who the other person was, but when she heard Peng Xiaowan say this, she realized that it seemed to be Shen Qingshuang's cousin, who had liked Peng Shao before.

"She doesn't look young anymore, so it's normal for her to get married." Wenrou wasn't surprised.

"I heard she's pregnant, which is why she's in such a hurry to get married," Peng Xiaowan said, also finding the matter strange.

Although she didn't know much about Yin Suwen, she had met her a few times and knew that she wasn't the kind of person who would do something so casual.

Nowadays, people gossip and criticize those who get pregnant out of wedlock, so it's truly admirable that she's under so much pressure.

"Really?" Wenrou wasn't particularly interested in other people's affairs; she just listened to it as idle gossip.

After dinner, Wenrou took the children home.

The children earned a lot of lucky money today, and with the pocket money that Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan usually give them, they are reluctant to spend it and have saved it.

Yun Shu and Yun Yao received quite a lot of New Year's money; all of it added up to several hundred yuan.

Jiang Yan received the most, knowing he was under a lot of academic pressure, so Wenrou gave him the most pocket money.

He doesn't have many needs, and the pocket money he's saved over the years adds up to nearly a thousand.

In this day and age, a thousand yuan is considered a huge sum of money.

After the New Year, Wenrou sent her two children to the kindergarten in the military compound.

There are also childcare workers there, so she can finally spare some time to focus on her work.

Wen Jinian took Tan Lin home and also arranged their marriage.

Wen Jianshe and Li Xiuying were very satisfied with their daughter-in-law. After all, because of what had happened before, they were just hoping that someone would want Wen Jinian, so they didn't dare to be picky.

Although Tan Lin did not have a good relationship with Commander Tan, she still had her maternal grandfather and uncle, so Wen Jinian made a special trip to visit them after returning to Beijing.

Unlike Commander Tan, they wouldn't interfere too much in Tan Lin's marriage.

As long as it's something she likes and the other person is a good person, they won't stop her.

Their wedding was set for three months from now. Once the transportation team's business was mostly finished, Wen Jinian would be able to take Tan Lin home to get married.

We still have quite a few relatives and friends back in our hometown, so after discussing it as a family, we decided to go back to hold the wedding for them. Getting married in our hometown would be more lively.

Although the wedding was held in their hometown, Tan Lin's current job is in Beijing, and they will definitely live in Beijing for a long time in the future, so Wen Jinian was thinking of buying a smaller house.

Once the two get married, if Tan Lin doesn't want to live in the apartment allocated by her work unit, they can live in their own house.

Although Tan Lin had her own house, Wen Jinian didn't want her to suffer any injustice.

Although Wen Jinian has saved some money, it is still far from enough to buy a house.

He needs to use that money for the wedding expenses, and he probably won't have much left by then.

With his current salary, he would need to work for another year and a half to earn enough to buy a house.

In that case, Tan Lin will have to continue waiting.

But now he knows that if he says these words, Tan Lin will definitely be angry.

After much deliberation, Wen Jinian decided to go find Wenrou.

"Second brother, here's some money for you to use first. If it's not enough, I'll give you more." Wenrou took out the money she had saved when she learned of Wen Jinian's difficulties.

"No... I can't take your money." Wen Jinian hurriedly pushed the money back when he saw Wenrou handing it to him.

At this moment, Huo Yanchuan's voice came over: "You need money right now, so you should use this money as needed. We're all family, so it's only right that we help each other out."

Wen Jinian was also moved when he heard their words.

"I know you mean well, but I really can't accept your money," Wen Jinian said.

As the second brother, he hadn't been able to help his sister at all, so how could he possibly ask her for money?

He looked at Wenrou and continued, "Xiaorou, I didn't come to you today to borrow money. I want to go to Su again and bring the transport team with me this time."

"Aren't you and Sister Tan Lin getting married soon? What will she do if you're abroad for so long and she can't see you?" Wenrou asked with some concern.

"I will tell her."

Wen Jinian also had his own pride. He wanted to work hard with his own hands to give Tan Lin a better life, instead of borrowing money everywhere.

Seeing how persistent he was, Wenrou finally had no choice but to agree.

She didn't want Wen Jinian to work so hard, since he was getting married soon and she planned to let him rest properly during this time.

I never expected him to go this far.

Wenrou knew Wen Jinian's personality; he had always been very strong-willed since childhood, and at this moment, he must also want to give Tan Lin the best wedding with his own hands.

After returning from Wenrou's place, Wen Jinian told Tan Lin about the incident.

Upon hearing this, Tan Lin's expression immediately changed.

"Why didn't you discuss this with me? What if your trip to the Soviet Union takes too long and you can't make it back in time for our wedding?"

Going abroad is no small matter; it can take anywhere from a few months to half a year.

Besides, it's not safe abroad. Wen Jinian hasn't even fully learned Russian yet, how can she feel at ease?

Wen Jinian knew that she would definitely worry if he told her about this, so he gently put his arm around her shoulder and let her lean on him.

"Linlin, believe me, I can do it. You were the one who helped me in Su last time. I also want to work hard for our future and give you a good life."

Since returning from the Soviet Union, he has been studying Russian every day and his Russian is now good enough for normal communication.

Tan Lin was initially a little worried, but after being persuaded by Wen Jinian, she could only nod in agreement.

"When you get abroad, keep in touch with me, take good care of yourself, come back soon, and don't make me worry too much."

As Tan Lin spoke, she reached out and hugged Wen Jinian's waist tightly, clearly reluctant to part with him.

Wen Jinian gently kissed her forehead. "Let's get our marriage certificate tomorrow."

Before he left, he thought about getting a marriage certificate with Tan Lin so that they would be a real couple.

Now, every time he comes over, he hears people saying things like Tan Lin is shameless and immoral.

Although Tan Lin didn't care, he still felt sorry for her.

Once they get their marriage certificate, they'll be able to shut them up.

When I'm not around, Tan Lin won't be bullied anymore.

"Okay," Tan Lin nodded in response.

In her eyes, their relationship was already that of husband and wife, and she didn't care whether they had a marriage certificate or not.

However, since Wen Jinian had said so, she naturally had no objections.

The next morning, Wen Jinian and Tan Lin took the materials to the subdistrict office.

Tan Lin's marriage application had been submitted long ago, and her workplace had approved it.

Now, when they go to the neighborhood office, it's just a formality; once they submit all the necessary documents, there are no problems.

"This...it's done already?" Tan Lin held the freshly issued marriage certificate in her hand, still somewhat incredulous.

She originally thought that getting a marriage certificate would be difficult, but she didn't expect it to be so quick.

Although it was just a piece of paper, it had her and Wen Jinian's names written on it, along with their birth dates and other information.

"Does this mean we're officially husband and wife?" Tan Lin turned to Wen Jinian and asked.

Wen Jinian smiled and nodded, "Yes, we are now officially husband and wife. From now on, we will live together, and no one can gossip."

After he finished speaking, he reached out and took Tan Lin's hand, and walked out.

After returning home, Tan Lin found a picture frame and mounted the paper.

This is her marriage certificate with Wen Jinian; from now on, they will be officially husband and wife.

After they got their marriage certificate, they almost always came back hand in hand.

Those who had been gossiping before all sent their blessings after learning of their marriage.

He stayed at Tan Lin's place for a few days, and every day after she got off work, he would cook her different delicious meals.

Sometimes, when the neighbors see him, they will ask him what delicious food he has made today.

Every time this happened, Tan Lin would look at Wen Jinian with a happy expression and say, "I love anything he makes."

Wen Jinian only stayed at Tan Lin's place for a week before receiving a message from the transport team saying they needed to prepare to depart.

He had already packed his things in advance, hurriedly told Tan Lin, and then left.

Tan Lin saw him all the way to the door, and watching his departing figure, she couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment.

After Wen Jinian left, Tan Lin's work was not affected much, but at night she needed a long time to fall asleep.

It would be a lie to say she didn't want to, but there was nothing she could do but hope he would come back soon.

Now that Wenrou has sent her two children to kindergarten, she also has time to focus on the transportation team's affairs.

However, whenever she has time, she brings her two children to visit Tan Lin.

She was happy to learn that they had already registered their marriage.

"Second sister-in-law, if you have nothing to do in the future, come to my place more often. I'll cook you something delicious." Wenrou said, holding Tan Lin's hand. She was mainly worried that Tan Lin would overthink things if she was alone. If someone could keep her company and talk to her, the days would pass by faster.

"Okay, I'll go." Tan Lin knew Wenrou's good intentions and nodded with a smile.

After more than eight months of modifications, the transportation team in Beijing has finally completed its work.

Next are the transport team's vehicles; Huo Yanchuan has a way of handling those, so she doesn't need to worry about them.

Upon learning this news, Peng Shao first sought out Wen Rou to discuss cooperation with her.

In the past, Wenrou would never have dared to imagine that one day she would be discussing cooperation with a future business tycoon.

But now, she's used to it.

"Don't overthink it. I'm not trying to help you. It's just that our company in Beijing has just been established and we need to find a transportation team to cooperate with. After looking around, your transportation team is the only one that seems suitable."

Peng Shao looked gentle, with a doting smile in his eyes.

He didn't tell Wenrou that as early as a year ago, many transport team owners had approached him to discuss cooperation, but he had rejected them all.

As a result, he suffered considerable losses.

He waited almost a year for the day when the gentle transport team would be officially established.

However, those losses meant nothing to him, all in order to help Wenrou.

Wenrou knew, of course, that with Peng Shao's abilities, there was no need for him to cooperate with her newly established small transportation team.

She was actually aware of Peng Shao's feelings for her, but she was sorry that she couldn't reciprocate.

Her heart had already been given to Huo Yanchuan for the rest of her life, and there was no way she could give it to anyone else.
