She quickly stopped talking at this point.

Before Wang Guifen could react, Lin Zhilan opened the door from the inside.

Lin Zhilan still remembers the contents of the book.

After receiving Zhou Chen's pension and Su Lang's money, the Zhou family suddenly became incredibly wealthy and powerful, becoming the richest family in the village.

This time, it must be the commune that sent Zhou Chen's pension.

Zhao Jinbao, who was in a hurry to leave, immediately froze on the spot when he saw Lin Zhilan.

He didn't have much schooling, so I don't know how to describe him.

In short, it's beautiful! Gorgeous!

Her skin was tender and white, like tofu. Although she was dressed very conservatively, you could still tell that she had a great figure with curves in all the right places.

How so?

Men can only describe her with one word: fairy!

"You said people from the commune came?" Lin Zhilan asked, staring at Wu Li.

Wu Li rolled her eyes. "Yeah, what's it to you!"

Lin Zhilan didn't reply, but turned around, picked up her daughter, and walked towards the Zhou family's house.

Wang Guifen quickly followed.

Zhao Jinbao knew nothing and foolishly followed along.

The Zhou family's courtyard was already surrounded by a group of people.

Chen Jin is the head of the commune's civil affairs department. He came here to distribute pensions.

This is not a good thing; every pension payment means that a soldier has sacrificed his life on the battlefield.

Just as Old Zhou was about to press his fingerprint, a clear female voice came from outside, "Wait a minute!"

Everyone turned around and saw that it was Lin Zhilan, so they quickly made way for her.

Chen Jin thought to himself, "Wow!" He hadn't expected there to be such a beauty in the countryside.

She looks exactly like the one described in the book.

"Sir," Lin Zhilan looked around, her gaze settling on Chen Jin, "who should be responsible for collecting this compensation according to regulations?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Guifen immediately pushed through the crowd and rushed in, yelling, "Are you crazy for money?! Zhou Chen is my son, of course I should collect the compensation!"

Chen Jin had seen this kind of thing many times before. He asked Lin Zhilan, "What is your relationship to Comrade Zhou Chen?"

"I am his wife," Lin Zhilan said, pointing to her daughter, "This is our daughter."

Chen Jin nodded: "According to regulations, this compensation should be shared by you and your daughter and Zhou Chen's parents."

Lin Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief; she felt reassured by her leader's words.

"Boss, my in-laws have already separated me and my daughter from the company. Could you please distribute the money for us now?"

"No way!" Wang Guifen shouted, "My son's compensation belongs to the Zhou family, it has nothing to do with you, Lin!"

Lin Zhilan: "What you say is useless; we have to listen to the leaders."

Wang Guifen quickly said to Chen Jin, "Boss, just give me the money. My daughter-in-law is about to remarry."

The crowd of onlookers immediately began to discuss the matter.

The man who had just been led there by the matchmaker had a smug smile on his face. Before he could speak, Lin Zhilan said from inside, "I have no plans to remarry right now."

"What do you mean, no? I've already brought the person over."

Zhao Jinbao seized the opportunity to slip out from the crowd.

"Zhilan, stop making a fuss. The compensation money isn't much. Come home with me, and I'll treat you to the best food and drinks."

"Boss, listen to this," Wang Guifen quickly said, "That's what people are saying."

Lin Zhilan said coldly, "I don't know him. I said I won't marry him, and I mean it. If you dare force me, I'll sue you for human trafficking!"

Wang Guifen glared at her, "You little slut, you think you can scare me? Marriage between men and women, what kind of human trafficking is that?!"

Her fierce appearance frightened Linlin, who buried her face in her mother's arms.

Lin Zhilan patted her on the shoulder, "I disagree, it's human trafficking!"

"you……!"

"Alright! Stop talking!"

Chen Jin interrupted Wang Guifen, having already grasped the general situation from their conversation.

The mother-in-law wanted to keep all the pension money for herself and also wanted to marry off her daughter-in-law to get a dowry.

The daughter-in-law didn't want to marry just anyone; she only wanted to reclaim what belonged to her and her daughter.

"This isn't something you can decide to give to whomever you want. There are national regulations that stipulate that parents, spouses, and children all have the right to receive a share."

There's no need to argue. According to the rules, it will be divided into three parts: one part for the parents, one part for the wife, and one part for the daughter.

Lin Zhilan agreed, as Zhou Chen was the son of the Zhou family, and she did not intend to keep all the compensation money for herself.

But Wang Guifen could not possibly agree.

She froze, then slumped to the ground, slapping her thigh and wailing, "This is outrageous! This jinxed mother and daughter killed my son, and now they want to steal my money! Oh God! Why don't you take their lives away with you?!"

Lin Zhilan frowned and covered her daughter's ears.

Chen Jin didn't care and let Lin Zhilan put her fingerprint on the document.

Just as Lin Zhilan was about to press the button, Wang Guifen scrambled up from the ground and knocked the clay stamp box off the table.

"What are you doing!"

Chen Jin picked up the inkpad from the ground with a pained expression, blew off the dirt, and said sternly, "Do you know this belongs to the public?!"

Wang Guifen was startled for a moment, but then straightened her back.

"Boss, if Lin Zhilan remarries, will she no longer be entitled to this money?"

Chen Jin: "But she hasn't remarried yet..."

"I've already brought the man here."

"She hasn't agreed to marry me yet, so it's not marriage!" Chen Jin said in a deep voice. "Don't try to confuse me here. If you keep causing trouble, I'll call the police and have you arrested and locked up for a few days!"

Wang Guifen: "The police are meddling in household matters?"

Chen Jin sneered: "Didn't you hear? Someone's going to accuse you of human trafficking?"

Wang Guifen gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Lin Zhilan, but she really didn't dare to cause any trouble.

If she were really arrested by the police, not only would her family's reputation be ruined, but she would also be sent to a farm for re-education.

The total compensation was over 800 yuan, with some change and some amount. In addition to the 600 yuan from the military, some was collected by leaders and comrades.

Chen Jin divided the contents into three portions and handed them to Lin Zhilan and Old Man Zhou.

When Wang Guifen made such a scene, Old Man Zhou didn't say a word; it was as if he had disappeared.

Chen Jin glanced at him, knowing that Old Man Zhou had tacitly approved it.

Sigh, it's all other people's business, and he doesn't want to get involved.

After distributing the money and pressing their fingerprints, Lin Zhilan took the money and prepared to take her daughter home, but was blocked by the man who had been guarding the door.

"Zhilan," the man licked his lips, "what's your decision?"

"I'm not considering it, you can leave."

"Hey..." The man stepped forward and tried to take her hand.

"What are you doing!" Chen Jin shouted, "Get out of the way!"

Chen Jin is a veteran, and he naturally exudes a sense of righteousness.

The man was a little scared and didn't dare to argue, so he ran away first.

He and Wang Guifen shared the same thought: they could run away, but they couldn't hide.

Lin Zhilan lives here, so he has plenty of time to slowly wear her down.

Seeing that Lin Zhilan was a widow and orphan, Chen Jin escorted her to her doorstep and said, "You have so much money on you now, be careful in the future."
