Ch 205: Peach Blossom Luck Knocks on the Door

Soon, a transfer student came to Class 1. His grades were very poor; he had never ranked second in any exam. This matter quickly spread throughout the second-year students.

It is said that his family is quite wealthy.

If his family weren’t rich and pulled some strings, how could he have entered Class 1?

The classmates all felt that Jin Lei got the opportunity to enter Class 1 because of his family’s connections. Because Class 1 is the elite class, students with poor grades simply cannot get in.

When this transfer student was mentioned, the male students looked resentful. The female students were much more tolerant. Because Jin Lei is very handsome.

He has fair skin and delicate features. He is taciturn, but exudes a special air of aloofness. He has a quality that can make girls scream.

When talking about him, the girls couldn’t stop. His words, his past, everything about him could make the girls chat with great interest.

The more infatuated the girls were, the more the boys hated Jin Lei. The boys secretly mocked those girls for being shallow and ignorant.

Therefore, no boys wanted to approach Jin Lei. In the three days since school started, Jin Lei didn’t have a single friend. Jin Lei didn’t mind; he didn’t need friends at all. He only has one goal in life: to constantly become more excellent.

◈◈◈

Chang Hua had been distracted and uneasy for three consecutive days, always thinking about her dear Uncle Chang Ba. Today, her eyelids were twitching particularly badly, so she simply took a leave of absence from the factory to go see Chang Ba.

Chang Hua’s maiden home is next to San Nan Village, very close, just a short walk away. Usually, if Chang Hua has nothing to do, she will visit Chang Ba and bring him some food. Chang Ba is Chang Hua’s only relative in her maiden home, so she often takes care of him.

At this time, Chang Ba was at home, weeping and constantly slapping his ears.

His nest egg had been swindled away, and now he really had nothing left.

He’s just stupid. Why didn’t he listen to Du Qingyang?

She told him he would have peach blossom tribulation, but he still took the money and begged to give it to them.

At the thought of his life’s savings turning into nothing, Chang Ba’s heart ached so much that he couldn’t breathe.

Without money, there was no point in living.

Chang Ba was utterly despondent. He found a rope, tied it to the beam, and made a noose.

“The peach blossom tribulation will cause me to lose my wealth and life; it’s really accurate. Wuwuwu…” After Chang Ba muttered to himself, he burst into tears.

I wonder if I can turn into a vengeful ghost after death? If I can, I will never let that woman go!

Half a month ago, a strange Middle-Aged Woman brought a Young Miss knocked on Chang Ba’s door.

The Middle-Aged Woman said to Chang Ba that she and her daughter were wandering here and had run out of money. They had been hungry for a day and hoped that Chang Ba would be kind enough to give them a bowl of porridge to drink.

Although Chang Ba was poor, he could still afford a bowl of porridge. So, he invited the two into the house to drink porridge.

The two thanked Chang Ba profusely, and after drinking the porridge, they even knelt down and kowtowed to thank him.

During the chat, after learning that Chang Ba was single, the Middle-Aged Woman proposed to let her daughter marry Chang Ba in order to repay Chang Ba’s kindness of a bowl of porridge.

Chang Ba was immediately dumbfounded.

This Young Miss is probably only twenty years old, a full twenty years younger than Chang Ba. Chang Ba could be the Young Miss’s father!

Is this real? Is peach blossom luck knocking on the door?

Ever since the Ning Sisi incident, after Du Qingyang’s warning, Chang Ba really didn’t dare to think about Young Miss anymore. Chang Ba thought he would spend his life like this, growing old alone.

Unexpectedly, peach blossom luck suddenly came to his door. His heart stirred again.

Chang Ba looked at this Young Miss in front of him with pleasant surprise. Although her appearance was not as good as Ning Sisi, and her skin was not as fair as Ning Sisi, her figure was quite good, and she was quite pleasing to Chang Ba’s eye.

◈◈◈

What made Chang Ba even happier was that the Middle-Aged Woman, his future mother-in-law, was praising him non-stop. Praising him for being kind, honest, and a particularly good person. “With you as my son-in-law, I won’t have to worry for the rest of my life.”

“Mother-in-law, please rest assured, I will definitely be filial to you. I will take care of you from now on!” Chang Ba replied, directly calling her mother-in-law.

The Middle-Aged Woman smiled, and the Young Miss always lowered her head, looking very shy.

Marriage matters are decided by the parents. Chang Ba didn’t ask the Young Miss’s opinion and directly chatted with his future mother-in-law about the marriage.

“Mother-in-law, you have seen my family’s situation. I am a poor man and don’t have much money. Can the wedding be simple?”

“However, please rest assured, mother-in-law, there will still be porridge to drink three meals a day, and you won’t go hungry.”

Chang Ba was not shy and directly said that they would be drinking porridge three meals a day. Weren’t the two of them very satisfied with drinking porridge just now? They were even so moved that they knelt down.

It’s really not easy to find a Young Miss who is willing to drink porridge with him. This Young Miss is simple and kind, so he must quickly settle the marriage. Otherwise, Chang Ba would worry about being snatched away by someone else.

“Okay, I have no objection.” This future mother-in-law was really easy to satisfy and agreed immediately.

Chang Ba was so happy, preparing to say, “Why don’t we get married today?”

Unexpectedly, before Chang Ba could speak, the Young Miss spoke first: “I don’t agree!”

The smile on Chang Ba’s face sank. Your mother has no objections, why do you have objections? I just saved you! Otherwise, you and your mother would have starved to death!

“The wedding can be simple, but I can’t wrong my mother. It wasn’t easy for my mother to raise me.”

Fortunately, the Young Miss did not refuse to marry Chang Ba and also agreed that the wedding should be simple. However, what does this have to do with whether her mother is wronged? Chang Ba didn’t understand.

The Young Miss explained that she and her mother depend on each other for life, and it was not easy for her mother to raise her. Therefore, betrothal gifts must be given. The betrothal gifts must also be generous, as they are for her mother’s retirement.

As soon as he heard about the betrothal gifts, Chang Ba was in trouble. He is a poor man, where would he get generous betrothal gifts?

Just as Chang Ba was frowning, the future mother-in-law smiled and said: “I only have one daughter. After she gets married, I will definitely live with her. The betrothal gifts you give me are only temporarily stored here. Isn’t my money going to be my grandson’s in the future?”

Grandson, that’s Chang Ba’s son! Chang Ba immediately relaxed his brows and smiled. He, Chang Ba, will have a son in the future.

Thinking like this, Chang Ba agreed to the betrothal gifts.

Finally, the mother and daughter said they were going to Dong Town to find distant relatives, and they would get married when Chang Ba had prepared the betrothal gifts.

Before leaving, the Young Miss also gave two instructions. First, she hoped that Chang Ba would take out all his savings, which represented Chang Ba’s sincerity. If she found that Chang Ba was not sincere, she would go back on her word and not marry him.

Second, she instructed Chang Ba not to tell anyone first, as the Young Miss was shy. On the day of the wedding, she would give everyone a surprise.

Chang Ba was delighted and agreed to everything.
