Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 1539 Good Luck Continues (29)
If Li Qiuyun, Li Zhiguo, and the others had good intentions and introduced Linlang to suitable men, then that would be fine.

Unfortunately, neither Li Qiuyun nor Li Zhiguo could stand seeing Linlang doing well—Linlang could do well, but not better than them—so the men they introduced to Linlang were naturally not good catches, and Linlang would never agree to such conditions.

In fact, Linlang would naturally leave, because she had been looking for a suitable marriage partner for a long time and had already made some progress, but not at this time, because she still wanted to watch the show.

Of course, if these two want to kick her out, that's fine. She just won't leave. She'll force them to give up some benefits before she leaves, which would be perfect.

So even though she was already in contact with the person she was looking for, she didn't mention it to the Li family, which made Li Qiuyun and Li Zhiguo think that she wasn't planning to get married yet, and they were extremely anxious.

Sure enough, Sister-in-law Li asked Linlang unhappily, "What's wrong with the person your brother introduced to you? He works at the food station. If you marry him, you'll live a life of luxury."

Linlang said coldly, "Oh, I just don't want to be like my mother, a stepmother, and then when I get old, my stepchildren will speak ill of me to the old man and kick me out. I'm still young, why don't I marry someone who is also unmarried and childless, and not have to be a stepmother?"

Indeed, the man Li Zhiguo introduced to Linlang was a widow whose wife had died in childbirth. Although he wasn't much older than Linlang, he already had a son and a daughter.

This is quite normal. After all, people who work at food stations are in high demand these days. Even if she is widowed and has children, it wouldn't be considered beneath her to offer her the job. So Li Zhiguo still considered this person to be a very good catch and introduced her to Linlang. However, Linlang disagreed as soon as she heard about the other person's conditions.

When Sister-in-law Li saw Linlang speaking so coldly, her face turned ugly. She wasn't stupid; she could naturally tell that there was something hidden in Linlang's words.

Clearly, she knew about the couple and Li Qiuyun speaking ill of her mother to Li's father, so she was now making veiled accusations.

But can we blame them for this? It was agreed that Li's father's money would belong to them. In the end, her mother went to Li's father to ask for the money back. She broke the rules herself and then accused them of talking badly about her, causing her to be divorced. Isn't that like the thief crying "stop thief"?

Unable to bear Linlang's words any longer, Sister-in-law Li turned and left, leaving behind only the words: "You won't marry someone with such good qualities; let's see how good you end up marrying in the future."

Linlang sneered and said, "You don't need to worry about that, brother and sister-in-law. It's better than being a stepmother anyway."

Sister-in-law Li was so embarrassed that she almost got into a fight with Linlang.

Fortunately, Li Qiuyun walked in at that moment, also to introduce someone to Linlang.

She heard Linlang say she didn't want to be a stepmother, so naturally, she introduced Linlang to men who didn't have children.

Although he didn't have children, this wasn't his first marriage; it was his second. He said he divorced his first wife because she couldn't have children.

Linlang naturally refused after hearing this.

"Are you kidding me? It's hard to say whether the first wife couldn't have children, or if this man can't. If he can't have children, and she married him without thinking, she might not be able to get a divorce later, which would be troublesome. Besides, she also inquired about the man Li Qiuyun introduced. His family is very patriarchal; they insist on having a son. If she doesn't have a son, will they divorce her and remarry?"

Therefore, Linlang would naturally not agree to Li Qiuyun's arrangement.

Seeing that Linlang ignored both Li Qiuyun's and Li Zhiguo's arrangements, the two of them became anxious and immediately began to think about how to get rid of Linlang.

Seeing their anxiety, Linlang wanted to get them to reveal their purpose so she could squeeze money out of them and make them suffer some losses to avenge the original owner of this body. After all, Li Qiuyun had stolen the original owner's money, and Li Zhiguo had also "stole" from them, since he was the nephew but had taken half of his father's money, which was equivalent to "stealing" the original owner's money as well. It wouldn't be too much to fleece them, so she said, "I see you seem to be in a hurry to marry me off, is that right?"

Li Qiuyun and Li Zhiguo naturally didn't want Linlang to discover their purpose, lest she cause a scene. After all, Linlang didn't seem as easy to talk to as her mother, so they immediately denied it, saying, "There's no such thing."

Linlang sneered, "Stop pretending. Do you think I'm stupid? Do you think I can't see through you? Actually, I understand what you're thinking. Are you afraid that with more and more children, I won't have a place to live since I'm not married yet? It's okay. Give me money, and I can live outside. If you don't give me money and want to kick me out, then don't even think about it. After all, I'm also Dad's daughter, and I have the right to live in the house."

When Li Qiuyun, Li Zhiguo, and the others heard Linlang say this, they couldn't help but look at each other in dismay. They hadn't expected that Linlang had discovered their plans. Now they were doomed. After all, Li Linlang could have stayed at home and never gotten married until they needed her, thus ruining their lives.

Given their bad relationship with Li Linlang, she actually did it to sabotage them by refusing to get married.

Don't say that doing this is harmful to others and not beneficial to oneself. They judge others by their own standards, thinking that if they could harm others, they would do it even if it was not beneficial to themselves. So when they heard Linlang say this, they couldn't help but get anxious.

Especially for Li Zhiguo, whose child is about to be born, they need a place to house their second child. They can't do without a place, so they asked, "How much money do you want?"

They definitely won't give any money, but that doesn't stop them from listening to how much money Li Linlang wants to embezzle.

Linlang's asking price wasn't high; she said, "One hundred yuan. Fifty yuan is enough for your family."

She knew that if the price was too high, the two men wouldn't pay, but if it was only 100 yuan, and each of them offered 50 yuan, she might be tempted.

Unfortunately, she underestimated the greed of these two men. Even if she only offered them fifty yuan each, they refused. Li Zhiguo shook his head and said, "That's too much. We have no reason to give you so much money. I can wait."

It will be fine once Linlang gets married.

He simply refused to believe that Li Linlang would never get married.

Since they're getting married, it'll definitely happen in the next few years; it can't be delayed for too long. He can wait. At worst, he can turn his bed into a bunk bed so the second child can sleep on top. His room is also cramped, so it's not realistic to set up a small bed for the second child. He can only make do with a bunk bed. Although the second child is still young and it's not safe for him to sleep in a bunk bed, his parents are downstairs and can take care of him. It should be manageable.

Li Qiuyun was also unwilling to give it, after all, her first child hadn't been born yet, and she was in a much better position than Li Zhiguo, so naturally she wasn't in a hurry.
