Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

"Then wait a moment, I’ll go call my uncle."

She had an urgent feeling she couldn’t quite explain. She just wanted to marry Li Yunqiang right away.

Watching Yue Lanfeng rush off to find someone, Li Yunqiang wondered why this girl was in such a hurry. Nonetheless, he remained seated.

Soon, Zheng Jixian came out, looking at Li Yunqiang sitting there, unsure of how to face the situation.

They were once close like brothers, and now he was about to become his niece’s husband.

Zheng Jixian felt very embarrassed. However, seeing his niece’s eager demeanor, he couldn’t figure out how to refuse.

"Yun Qiang, Lanfeng has already spoken to me. I’d like to hear your thoughts."

"Brother Zheng, let’s put it this way. I have no objections. I am just a humble countryman, an older man with four sons. If a young and beautiful girl wants to marry me, why would I refuse?

But because you are here, let me speak frankly from the beginning: if she regrets it in the future, I won’t comply with her wishes. Even if we become enemies, so be it."

These words were clear enough. Hence, Zheng Jixian frowned, looking at his niece.

"Uncle, I agree, I won’t regret it. I will live a good life."

"Lanfeng, what will you do if you can eventually return? Are you planning to stay here for a lifetime?"

"Uncle, to be honest, when will we even be able to return? In a few years? Ten years? By then, I would already be at such an age; what else could I do?

Most rural men are uneducated and wouldn’t be able to accept someone like me, leading to the same unhappiness. So why not just accept it as it is?"

Zheng Jixian knew that his niece was speaking the truth. Whatever, if she’s willing, then it’s fine. Her parents have already let go of her. So be it.

"Alright, just make sure you don’t regret it in the future."

"I won’t regret it. As long as Li Yunqiang treats me well, I won’t regret it."

Li Yunqiang was moved by the resolute woman. In fact, he thought there was nothing wrong with such a simple woman. She saw something in him, unlike Liu Cuilan. If he treated her well, she would keep him in her heart.

Living a life together like this, slowly growing closer, wasn’t impossible.

"Yun Qiang, since that’s the case, I have no objections on my end. Her parents also have no objections."

Li Yunqiang understood that her parents had completely given up on her. So they wouldn’t bother her anymore. This was good, not having to worry about her always thinking of returning home.

"Alright, tomorrow I’ll find someone to propose. We’ll handle everything as per the customs, but it won’t be a big affair. The bride price will be one hundred yuan. If there’s anything needed after marriage, we’ll add it."

Zheng Jixian knew that giving one hundred yuan was far better than buying a lot of random things. He was familiar with the character of the Li Family Brothers, so he said nothing more.

Li Yunqiang rode his bike straight to his second brother’s house. Today, Li Yungui had drunk too much and wasn’t awake yet.

"Old Fourth, you just got back?"

"Second Sister-in-law, come in. I have something to say to both my second brother and you."

Qu Xiaoli followed him into the house, puzzled.

Li Yungui got up, drinking the strong tea his wife handed him. He had really drunk too much today.

"Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, today Zheng Jixian told me his niece fancied me. I’ve already discussed with them and tomorrow I’ll find someone to propose."

"His niece? That educated youth?"

"Yes, the one they wanted to introduce to Manjiang."

"Wasn’t she with another educated youth? What happened?"

"That fell through. Last time I went to deliver the threshing machine, she took a liking to me. Today, Zheng Jixian told me about it, and since I happened to be there, I talked to him and his niece, and I think she’s alright."

"She’s too young." Li Yungui frowned.

Qu Xiaoli, being a woman, immediately thought of something unpleasant but said nothing.

"Old Fourth, are you sure about this?"

"Well, it’s the same with anyone. Plus, she’s young and pretty, which is quite good."

Li Yungui wanted to say something but was interrupted by Qu Xiaoli. "Old Fourth, if that’s how they are, don’t let them suffer any grievances."

"I know. She seems like a simple person right now."

After Li Yunqiang left, "Don’t worry. Old Fourth is already of age. He must know what’s what."

"Sigh, I really don’t know what to say about him. I disagreed about Liu Cuilan back then, but he wanted it like that, leading to this. This time it’s even more outrageous, he actually found someone like her."

The next day, Li Yunqiang brought people over to propose.

There were no objections here either. The wedding date was set for ten days later, but they’d go register the following Monday.

Yue Lanfeng was an educated youth and needed to handle formalities at the educated youth office for her marriage, so they planned to go directly to the county.

Li Yunqiang went back and started arranging his home, and in the evening, he told his two sons about his remarriage.

The two younger ones were already over ten years old and understood everything. In the end, they didn’t say much; they had long known their father planned to find someone new, and it didn’t matter who it was.

On Monday morning, Li Yunqiang rode over to pick up Yue Lanfeng, bringing introduction letters from both villages, only missing the procedures from the educated youth office.

The two left their bicycles at the government yard and took a ride to the county.

As luck would have it, they had just finished the paperwork at the educated youth office when they ran into Yin Zhijun.

"Lanfeng, what are you doing at the educated youth office?" Now in Han Family Village, it couldn’t compare to Zheng Family Village, especially with the record already in his file.

Though it was consensual, it still left a mark on his record.

"What’s it to you?"

"Who is this old man?"

"My husband."

Li Yunqiang roughly understood now; this educated youth was the man. He hadn’t expected Yue Lanfeng to admit it so directly.

"Ha ha, what? Could only find an old man like this?

Actually, if you were a bit gentler, I wouldn’t reject you either."

"Get lost, just looking at you makes me sick. People like you will get your comeuppance sooner or later."

"Ha ha, aren’t you afraid that I’ll spread the word?"

"Yin Zhijun, you can say it right here, you know what awaits you, don’t you? Believe it or not, I would make sure you never get out of it?"

Yue Lanfeng wasn’t a fool. She couldn’t show weakness, or else this shameless man might wreak havoc in her life.

"Yue Lanfeng, you?"

"Believe it or not? Let’s give it a try."

Li Yunqiang stood aside watching, thinking this young wife had a certain toughness, getting right at this man’s weak spot.

"Lanfeng, don’t get angry, it’s not worth it. If you need a way to vent, I’ll figure something out."

Li Yunqiang wasn’t like the average farmer. Having graduated from junior high and worked as an accountant for many years, he had been to various places. So when he said this, Yin Zhijun was intimidated and walked away.
