Chapter 6 The Matchmaker
One is Wang Guifen.
Another one is Song Fang, the mother of the original female protagonist in the book.
Before she even reached the door, Wang Guifen came over and rummaged through her basket, finding it full of wild vegetables. She couldn't help but curse, "Are you trying to make a living? Why are you digging up so many wild vegetables?"
Lin Zhilan: "We can't afford to live, Mother. How about you give me half of Zhou Chen's allowances from all these years?"
"Pah! You're dreaming! Where would I get any money?"
Lin Zhilan walked past her and headed towards her front door.
"Sister-in-law," Song Fang said, stopping her with a bowl of dumplings in her hand, "Thank you so much for helping with the cooking on our wedding day. We're making dumplings at home today, so you and Linlin should try some too."
Wang Guifen, who had followed, quickly said, "Look at you, you're just being polite. There's no need for such formalities among family."
Song Fang: "Of course."
Lin Zhilan glanced at Song Fang's belly. On the second day of Zhou Jianjun's marriage, he returned to the army with Su Lang, who had received a mission.
If I'm not mistaken, the female lead is already in Song Fang's belly.
Lin Zhilan didn't take the bowl, and Song Fang's smile became somewhat stiff. "Sister-in-law?"
Lin Zhilan nodded. "Thank you for your kindness. Please take it back."
Although I don't know why Song Fang in the book misunderstood that Zhou Jianjun liked the original owner of the body.
But Lin Zhilan knew one thing: the farther away from this family, the better.
"Sister-in-law..." Song Fang wanted to say something, but Lin Zhilan had already closed the door.
Seeing this, Wang Guifen reached out and snatched the bowl from Song Fang's hand. "It's a waste to give it to her, so I'll take it back. I'll give it back to you after you finish eating."
Song Fang looked at Wang Guifen's figure, then at Lin Zhilan's tightly closed door, and gritted her teeth.
She had just gotten engaged when Zhou Jianjun was promoted to deputy battalion commander.
Her husband's family thought she was a lucky charm for him, and that her life was even better after she married into the family than it was at her parents' home.
The only downside was that her husband was recalled to the army shortly after their marriage.
What's even more concerning...
Before her husband left, he specifically told her to spend more time with her sister-in-law who lived in the next room.
Lin Zhilan is so beautiful; Song Fang has never seen a woman like her before.
Every move she makes exudes charm.
On her wedding day, even though she wore a red dress and full makeup, most of the men at the banquet were focused on Lin Zhilan, who was helping with the chores.
Song Fang was somewhat annoyed at the time, but she didn't say it out loud.
But her husband gave her these very instructions before he left, which filled Song Fang with suspicion.
She wanted to find out, but Lin Zhilan rarely went out, so she could never run into her.
I finally managed to corner someone today, but we barely got to exchange a few words, and I even lost a bowl of dumplings.
"Yoshiko."
"Oh, I'm here." Hearing her mother-in-law call her, Song Fang smiled and immediately went over.
In the courtyard, Lin Zhilan put down her basket and took her daughter to wash her hands.
"Baby, do you want to eat dumplings?"
Linlin watched her mother rubbing her little hands, then shook her head. "Mommy, eat."
"Yes, Mommy will eat too. Let the hen lay more eggs so Mommy can make dumplings with shepherd's purse and egg filling for you."
"Okay~"
Lin Zhilan doesn't actually like children very much.
But Linlin is just too well-behaved and sensible.
She was born in the twelfth lunar month, and was still a few months away from turning three, but she rarely cried and would try her best to help herself.
The more I like her, the more I feel sorry for her and the more I want to pamper her.
After lunch, Lin Zhilan put her daughter to sleep and then slipped into her spatial dimension.
In this space, the one thing that is never lacking is land.
Lin Zhilan spent a lot of effort to cultivate a piece of land.
They planted the ginseng and casually scattered a few vegetable seeds.
Whether we live or die is up to fate.
Fearing her daughter might wake up midway, Lin Zhilan immediately came out of the space after finishing these tasks.
Here, Lin Zhilan and her daughter Linlin live a peaceful and happy life.
Wang Guifen tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
She never liked Lin Zhilan, and she didn't care about her granddaughter at all.
In the past, Lin Zhilan was obedient and would do whatever she was told, and she could tolerate it.
This vixen has suddenly changed her tune today; she's demanding her box and blankets back, and she's stealing chickens and asking for money.
Now that her son is gone, why should she get the old house?
Another wicked idea popped into Wang Guifen's mind.
"His father, the young man surnamed Lin, why don't you find a matchmaker and marry him off?"
So as not to still be occupying the Zhou family's house.
Old Zhou took a drag of his cigarette, frowned, and said, "Our son has only been gone for a few months. At least... we should make her stay for three years."
"Look at her seductive appearance," Wang Guifen said with a sneer, "Does she look like someone we can keep? We might as well let her get married sooner, then we can get a dowry."
Lin Zhilan is beautiful. Even if she is a widow, as long as she spreads the news of her remarriage, she will definitely have many suitors.
Upon hearing the words "bride price," Old Zhou sighed, turned over, and said, "Whatever you want."
Seeing that he agreed, Wang Guifen secretly planned to find a matchmaker the next day.
The busy farming season has just ended, and there's no need to go to work for the time being. Everyone is busy tending to their own plots of land.
Lin Zhilan and her daughter had just returned from the fields when they heard someone knocking on the door.
"Who?"
Wang Guifen's cheerful voice came from outside the courtyard: "Zhilan, it's me. Open the door for your mother quickly."
Zhilan?
Wang Guifen had never called her that affectionately before.
Lin Zhilan escorted her daughter to her room, but didn't open the door immediately. Instead, she stood in the yard and asked, "Is there something you need?"
Wang Guifen's face darkened, and her tone became harsher, "Good thing, hurry up and open the door for me!"
"Just say what's on your mind outside."
The matchmakers and men outside could also see that Lin Zhilan and her mother-in-law were not on the same page and that she might not want to get married right now.
Since she was already there, the matchmaker called out loudly into the courtyard, "Young lady, please open the door, this is really good news."
Lin Zhilan peeked through the crack in the door and saw a man and a woman standing outside besides Wang Guifen.
She asked coldly, "What good news?"
The matchmaker smiled and said, "This is incredible news! Why don't you come out and meet us?"
Lin Zhilan sneered inwardly. Was this an attempt to marry her off?
"There's nothing to see here, you can go back now."
The man's name was Zhao Jinbao. He was from the next village. He had four older sisters and was the only boy in his family.
He was spoiled rotten from a young age and his personality wasn't very good.
If he hadn't heard that Lin Zhilan was beautiful, he wouldn't have come here today at all.
Seeing that Lin Zhilan was not giving him face, he spat and immediately turned to leave.
Wang Guifen quickly pulled him back. There was nothing she could do; the man's family was wealthy and he said he was willing to offer a dowry of one hundred yuan.
With Lin Zhilan's face, any man would be tempted. This hundred yuan is just a duck right in front of his mouth.
"Lin Zhilan, I'm warning you, this is the Zhou family's house. You get out of here right now!"
Lin Zhilan ignored her and continued to dry the wild grass in the yard.
Wang Guifen pounded on the door in anger, and Wu Li rushed over, "Mom, hurry back! People from the town commune have come, saying they're here to escort my eldest brother..."
