I transmigrated to the 1970s and became the female lead's vicious stepsister.

"Meili is right. We should give all the betrothal money to Xiaowu'er. Our Su family can't be looked down upon."

"If anyone has any objections, come and talk to me."

Du Lijuan dared not utter a sound. Her brother-in-law was the brigade leader, and his word was law. Who would dare to contradict him?

That brat, she always has someone protecting her.

When Uncle Su heard from his wife that the old lady had gone to his second brother's house, he rushed over.

"Mother, don't get involved in my second brother's family affairs. Go home quickly." Uncle Su persuaded the old lady to leave.

If it weren't for the old lady's interference, my second brother might not have ended up getting a divorce.

Although the old lady was assertive, she was old after all and still needed her eldest son to support her in her old age, so she had no choice but to suppress her anger and leave quietly.

"Big brother, I admire you the most in this family. Thank you for protecting Xiao Wu'er all these years."

Xu Meili knew that her daughter's good life under her stepmother was largely due to her brother-in-law's influence.

Su Wu was a man of conscience; at least he didn't become a stepfather just because he had a stepmother.

That's why she let her daughter stay in the Su family. Compared to living with her in another family and being dependent on others, it was better for her to stay in the Su family. This is also why Xu Meili didn't take her daughter with her.

"What you're saying is wrong. Xiao Wu'er is a child of our Su family, my own niece, just like my own child."

"Alright, it's getting late, I should go now. Xiao Wu'er, this is for you, keep it safe."

Xu Meili stuffed an envelope into her daughter's arms.

This was her savings accumulated over many years. Over the years, Xu Meili had saved more than 600 yuan. Now she gave her daughter 500 yuan and kept only a little over 100 yuan for herself.

"Mom, I don't want it. It's so hard for you to save this money." Su Lingwu knew that this money was saved up little by little by her.

You have to understand, for so many years, she has had to buy things for him every month, and he also has a younger brother at home. This money is too much for her to handle.

Xu Meili only earns thirty-two yuan a month, and she still has to live on it. If you do the math, you'll know that this money is basically all she has, and she definitely doesn't have much money left for herself.

"Listen to me, take this. This is the only thing Mom can do for you. From now on, you'll have to rely on yourself."

The Fu family's status was too high, and there was so little she could do for her daughter. She felt powerless and for the first time disliked herself for being so incompetent, unable to support her daughter in the future.

After saying that, Xu Meili pulled Zhao Guoyao away.

Su Lingwu looked at the money in her hand, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Alright, I'm leaving too. Xiao Wu'er, pack your things carefully." Uncle Su said and then left.

"Um... honey, I'll move your things inside for you. You can use them however you like."

Su Wu helped his daughter carry things, trip after trip.

Du Lijuan was so angry that her teeth itched.

Su Lingtang was so envious of Su Lingwu. Why was she so lucky? Her father protected her, her uncles and brothers protected her, and her own mother was also good to her.

They actually gave Su Lingwu a dowry of five hundred yuan.

With this calculation, Su Lingwu held nearly three thousand yuan in cash. This amount of money would make her a wealthy person, not only in the surrounding villages but also in the city.

Su Lingwu rose to a height that others could not reach through a single marriage. Su Lingtang was unwilling to accept this, wondering why the world was so unfair.

As for her, her biological mother gave her twenty, which even her stepfather thought was unreasonable, but her biological mother thought it was fine and couldn't help but laugh.

"Are you stupid? You're still laughing? Look at the family she found for her husband, and then look at yours, they're incredibly stingy."

Du Lijuan got angry when she saw her daughter's bitter smile. "She doesn't even try to make her daughter proud!"

Su Lingwu ignored the mother and daughter and went into her own room.

It's funny to see Su Wu touching the boxes of liquor with such reluctance, looking so unwilling to part with them.

"Alright, here you go drink it. When has your daughter ever been stingy with you?"

After saying that, he opened the box, took out a bottle, and handed it to Su Wu.

"I knew I hadn't spoiled my daughter for nothing; she thinks of her dad when she has something good." She sniffed it with relish.

"It smells so good, this wine is excellent!"

"By the way, Dad, don't just drink by yourself. Later, take some cigarettes and alcohol to Uncle. Take two bottles of liquor, two packs of cigarettes for him to smoke, and some tea, pastries, and candy to take to Uncle's house as well."

"Oh, my daughter is so thoughtful. Your uncle is really good to you. This time he even killed the laying hens to add to the dishes. The cured meat was prepared by your aunt for the family to use during the autumn harvest. It's only right that we give them some of the things."

Su Wu agreed with his daughter's decision and happily carried large and small bags to his elder brother's courtyard.

Su Lingwu lay on the kang (a heated brick bed), looking at the watch on her wrist. She hadn't expected Fu Linchuan to be so thoughtful, buying her a watch on purpose.

I bought several outfits, all of which were the most fashionable styles from the department store. There were matching tops and pants, skirts, and shirts. I bought four sets. I also bought one pair of black shoes and one pair of white shoes, and ten pairs of white socks.

I suddenly remembered a saying: Don't marry someone who is only good to you; marry someone who is good to you in their own right.

His kindness to you is a temporary choice, but his inherent goodness is a deep-rooted upbringing. Love and novelty will eventually fade, but his character, kindness, and responsibility will not change.

Fu Linchuan is a very good person.

Their meeting was not due to feelings, but his inherent sense of responsibility prevented him from doing anything unfaithful.

Just by looking at her uncle Shen Zhiyan, one can tell that the Fu family is no ordinary family. In fact, given Fu Linchuan's family background, there is absolutely no need for him to marry a country girl like her. After all, marrying her would be a very unwise thing to do.

Currently, apart from her beauty, she offers no other value.

However, beauty is the least valuable thing to such families.

But Fu Linchuan still chose to take responsibility for her, which shows that he has a strong sense of responsibility.

Forget it, I don't want to think about him anymore.

Let's count her money; she received quite a few red envelopes today.

Su Lingwu took out all the money and laid it on the kang (a heated brick bed). Although there were 200,000 yuan in the space, it was money that had not been properly circulated.

However, she received these things openly and honestly, and no one would find it a problem if she spent them.

Fu Linchuan gave them two, one for 1,000 and the other for 500.

Fu Linchuan's uncle gave him 100, and Secretary Liu gave him 50.

Her biological mother just gave her another five hundred.

In addition to the two hundred Su Wu gave her, there was also her previous savings of over thirty yuan. Later, Fu Linchuan gave her money twice, each time fifty yuan.

But she spent some of it, including 120 yuan for her own mother, to buy her a watch.

She now has 2,300 yuan and some spare change.

Her wallet was bulging again.

He was so happy that he lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) and tossed and turned.

Hearing the thumping sound coming from the wall, Su Lingtang knew that Su Lingwu was excited.

Yes, who wouldn't be happy to receive so much money and good things?

Fu Linchuan arrived early the next morning.

He coaxed his uncle away, asking him to say some good things about him, so that things would be clear to those in the capital.

……

Beijing.

Fu family.

"What did you say?"

"Xiao Chuan got his marriage certificate!"
