Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 153

Chapter 153: Chapter 120: The Premeditated Dowry (Part 2)

Do you know what kind of life you’ve been living all these years, and what kind of life Jiao Jiao has been living? She’s just a rural girl, but now that her dad is back, she’s really not just any golden baby, do you understand what I mean?

Zhou Xiaozheng, Zhou Jiao’s father, he only married your eldest aunt after he made a fortune, unlike the uncle you look down on. He dotes on his only daughter as if she were his life. On the day she was born, he announced the happy news everywhere, crazily shouting that he had a precious daughter. He held Jiao Jiao all night long and wouldn’t let go. In his eyes, no one can compare to his daughter, even her farts smell sweet. He and your eldest aunt would talk all day about preparing her dowry early on. In the future, his daughter would be a little princess whom no one would dare to hurt! Now that his little princess has become an abandoned child, an orphan, no one can predict what he’ll do when he comes back!

Have you gone silly, comparing yourself to her? Fortunately, you’re saying this at home. Do you know why your grandpa and your eldest aunt went to see Jiao Jiao this time? They’re worried that when Zhou Xiaozheng comes back, he’ll find out that no one from our family has visited her. Your eldest aunt abandoned her for 17 years, and Zhou Jiao holds a grudge, so Zhou Xiaozheng would hold a grudge and alienate himself from your eldest aunt.

No one talks about it, so you don’t think? Do you really consider yourself the Lin Family’s eldest daughter? Don’t be so defiant! Staring at me is useless. In terms of status, Zhou Jiao isn’t lower than you. Although your dad returned from a mission with Zhou Xiaozheng, back then, your dad’s position was at least two levels lower than your uncle’s.

Now Zhou Xiaozheng has returned as a hero, with 17 years of achievements, how many ranks do you think he will rise? In the Lin Family, except for your grandpa, everyone who sees him will have to call him ’Sir.’ Do you understand what I mean? You really can’t compare to Zhou Jiao. You have a brother to worry about, right? If you want to get married, focus on competing with the girls in the Big Courtyard, don’t think too much."

Lin Xueling’s face turned crimson, not knowing whether she was angry or ashamed, she bit her lip hard, glaring at Lin Liyin.

Lin Liyin finished speaking in a burst of words, putting down her finger that was pointing at her.

She said with tears and grievances, "When did I ever look down on my uncle? You just have a problem with me and always disapprove of me. I just wanted to see what Zhou Jiao’s dowry is like. I didn’t say I want any of it myself—besides, if Aunt gave me a few pieces, Zhou Jiao wouldn’t know. Aunt only has one daughter, but she also has three nieces. The money spent on this dowry isn’t from the Zhou Family; it’s from the Lin Family, from my aunt’s own salary. So what if our Lin Family wants it? And now we can’t even look!"
