Chapter 8: The Swimming Ring on the Stomach
Knowing Mr. Zhou's nature, he would never allow his precious grandson to be ruined by her. Therefore, he would surely come over with people today to call off this marriage.
Thinking that people from the Zhou family would soon arrive, the corners of Lin Caisang's lips curved slightly upwards.
"Sangsang, you're awake. Your grandma has baked some vegetable buns for you. Are you hungry?"
The door was opened, and Ms. Lu of the Lin family held a winnowing basket filled with several vegetable buns. After setting it down, she went out again and brought back a big bowl of chicken with chicken soup, all placed in front of Lin Caisang.
Smells so good!
This wild chicken was divine. It was so fragrant that it threatened to make her nose crooked!
She swallowed, unable to resist... She forced down the drool from the corner of her mouth, and her hand inside the quilt squeezed the fat on her stomach.
She absolutely couldn't be tempted by good food, she must lose this extra weight!
"Grandma, please sit."
"Did you sleep well last night? Those people are too inhuman."
Ms.Lu of Lin Family took a deep breath and looked at the faint wound on her granddaughter's face. It pained her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Grandma, don't be sad. After all, I am back, right? The Chen family didn't do anything wrong. It's pitiful that they lost their son. As for Second Aunt..." Lin Caisang comforted Ms.Lu of the Lin Family.
"Humph!"
Hearing the mention of Liu Rumei, Ms.Lu of Lin Family let out a cold humph.
"Don't mention her to me. Sangsang, I came to talk to you about something. Last night, your Grandpa and I had a discussion, and we thought... maybe we should call off the marriage with the Zhou family... what do you think?"
She hesitated as she looked at her granddaughter and asked carefully.
For a long time, her granddaughter had been foolishly fond of Zhou Liang. Although this incident happened, she was afraid that Lin Caisang hadn't directly linked Zhou Liang to the event.
She hadn't slept well all night, thinking about how to persuade her granddaughter to let go of Zhou Liang.
"Sure, I'll listen to Grandpa and Grandma." Lin Caisang chuckled.
The original owner didn't know, but who was she? How could she not know the things between those two?
"Good, good."
Ms.Lu of Lin Family heaved a sigh of relief. As long as they could call off the marriage, everything would be fine.
"That Zhou boy is really not worth it. Sangsang, we can't be hung up on such an unworthy person. In the future, Grandma will find someone better for you. Not just from our village, but you can choose from young men within ten miles."
Lin Caisang: "..."
Grandma, can you really talk like this? If others hear this, they might think she is a queen selecting her consorts!
"I will annul the marriage tomorrow. Let's see whether this Zhou boy can still pass the exam or not!" Ms.Lu of Lin Family spoke these words out as if she was venting for her granddaughter.
"Hehe."
Lin Caisang laughed.
She didn't believe in the destiny of wealth or luck. A person needs to rely on their own hands, and the wisdom in their head.
However, she quite liked hearing her grandma's words. With Zhou Liang's character, if he could pass the exam, then the examiners must be blind, or maybe the Zhou family bribed them.
"Grandma, Brother Changfeng is coming back soon, right? He also needs to go to the provincial city for the examination."
Hearing her granddaughter's words, Ms.Lu of Lin Family's expression turned cold, and she heaved a deep sigh.
With all this fuss, she had forgotten about Lin Changfeng, the eldest son of Third Brother's family, who was also a scholar in their village and needed to take the official examination as well.
