She reclaimed her family property and broke off her engagement to go to the countryside.

Chapter 18 My sister-in-law is back
"Since we're coming to your door, we can't come empty-handed."

Don't be shy, kid. Stay home today, I'll go buy some good food.

Zheng's mother was very hospitable, but she felt embarrassed and declined several times.

However, Zheng Jingtian also tried to persuade him, so he didn't say anything more.

In the afternoon, Mr. Zheng returned home early, along with his youngest son.

He is Zheng Jingtian's second brother, not more than two years older than them.

Clearly, Zheng's mother had already spoken to him, and he was very happy.

“Child, if our Tian Tian didn’t have this job, she would have to go to the countryside. You are a great benefactor to our family!”

The fact that an elder can speak to her like that proves that they truly love their child.

"Uncle Zheng, you flatter me. I am willing to sell it to Tian Tian."

Moreover, it wasn't given away for free; it was sold, so she naturally felt embarrassed to take credit.

However, Zheng's parents still felt sorry for her.

"Shuyin, here's eight hundred yuan, take it."

This time, it was her turn to be stunned.

"No, I said five hundred yuan before, this is too much."

He quickly pushed it away; naturally, she couldn't accept it.

Mr. Zheng was very insistent, and everyone else came to persuade him as well.

"Your job is highly sought after."

I still need to give gifts; these are all favors, and 800 yuan isn't much.

If you don't accept it, we'll feel embarrassed.

Look at how well they handled this; it's so reassuring.

"Alright then, thank you, Uncle Zheng."

"You're welcome. And the pork you wanted, I've also been keeping an eye out for it. I'll get it for you in a couple of days."

"it is good."

Things have been settled here, so let's go eat.

Zheng's mother cooked a lot of dishes, and also stewed chicken soup and pork ribs.

After the meal, they specifically asked Zheng's youngest son to take the person back.

As soon as they reached the alley entrance, they saw Tang Weiyu and Gu Qingjia talking together.

Tang Weiyu kept looking around; she must be waiting for her.

However, when did Gu Qingjia return?

Does that mean I can get the star pendant back?

"Shuyin, you're back?"

Zheng Guoqing stopped when he heard that he knew the person.

Gu Qingjia witnessed this scene and it instantly went viral.

"Ji Shuyin, how can you be so shameless!"
"Going out with some thug so late at night, how could you do this to my brother?"

Good heavens, how did he become a hooligan? Zheng Guoqing was speechless.

"Watch your mouth. We just bumped into each other by chance. I thought it was getting late, so I brought the person back."

Ji Shuyin glanced at Gu Qingjia, but didn't seem to care much.

"It's okay, people with heart conditions see everything as dirty."

"Brother Zheng, you should go home first. I can handle things myself."

Zheng Guoqing looked at it for a long time, gave a few more instructions, and then left with some lingering concern.

"Hmph, so reluctant to part, and you still say there's nothing wrong between you two? Nobody would believe that."

"Heh, so you're going to slander my innocence like this just to prove you're not a ghost?"

"You've been gone for so long, what have you been doing? Did you secretly have a baby?"

Throwing dirty water, as if anyone can't do it. This is the entrance to the alley; there are quite a few people chatting and children playing here in the evening.

Even if the claim of being pregnant out of wedlock is false, it will still lead to all sorts of speculation.

Sure enough, Gu Qingjia immediately became anxious.

"You're talking nonsense. I went to my grandma's house. You're just trying to smear me."

"Tch, you decided where you were going."

You look rosy-cheeked and have gained quite a bit of weight; you never know what might be going on.

Tang Weiyu was also very surprised. Ji Shuyin had no sense of propriety at all. How could she spread such rumors?
However, work is more important right now.

"Okay, okay, it's a misunderstanding."

Shuyin, don't hold it against Qingjia. She was just worried about you.

Seeing you chatting and laughing with that man, I was wrong.

Well, they still want to put her down. How shameless.

"Which eye of yours saw us talking and laughing?"
Mingming was riding two bicycles, one in front of the other, and it was difficult for him to even speak.

"Please, next time you fart, can you think before you speak?"

Ji Shuyin didn't give her a kind look at all, and she spoke loudly, even though there were already several people watching her!
Now, they're even glancing over here, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Tang Weiyu felt hurt, and her eyes instantly reddened. Gu Qingjia, with her reckless personality, naturally couldn't stand it.

"Hmph, since you have a fiancé, you should stay away from other men."

These are the rules, do you understand?

Tsk, she even knows the rules, that's hilarious.

"First of all, it was already dark. When people saw me, they were worried about my safety as a girl, so they kindly offered to take us back."

You come up here and call someone a hooligan. Is this the rule of Gu Jia?
Secondly, I have a fiancé.

It's so late, and his fiancée hasn't come home. He doesn't even offer to go out and pick her up. Is this what he should be doing?

Third, since you, Gu Qingjia, know that I am your future sister-in-law, why are you still so arrogant and disrespectful? Is this what you call "rules"?

After she pressed him for answers, the other person's face turned pale and then flushed.

"Your brother is injured, how can I come to pick you up?"

And how did I disrespect you? It's your own fault for not keeping to your proper place and coming back with a man.

I misunderstood for a moment, why are you being so persistent?

Okay, so you've even learned to save face now. Well then, let's settle this score!
"Oh dear, Qingjia, you've really gone too far."

We just walked back together, we didn't hug each other, what are you misunderstanding?
Besides, you've never respected me before.

To put it nicely, you always "borrow" things from me, but when have you ever returned them?
She would secretly ask me for pocket money. Over the years, I must have accumulated at least two hundred, if not three hundred!

"How much of the dowry money I prepared has you spent? Just the clothes and food alone could fill your closet."

Ji Shuyin pretended to get emotional and started spitting, just as Aunt Chen came out.

He grabbed her hand, his voice trembling with tears.

"You all be the judge, I'm not even married to Gu Yuncheng yet."

Their family members are bullying me like this.

"I can let everything else go, but Gu Qingjia even stole the necklace my parents left me."

Yes, she had seen the star pendant, and with the chain, it was perfectly placed around the other person's neck.

After being scolded, Aunt Chen also got angry, especially since she had just received a favor from Ji Shuyin.

"Oh dear, the way you eat is really disgusting."

I initially thought the Gu family were grateful, but it turns out they were just after the last bit of value the girl had!

These words were overheard by Mr. Gu, who happened to be returning from a business trip.

His entire expression changed instantly.
