Chapter 588
The mother-in-law of the Zheng family also understood this fact, so she wanted to find a girl who was younger than him that was energetic and capable. Basically, she wanted someone who liked his appearance to raise him.
Lin Mei was willing to go on a date with him because the Zheng family was well off and the two elders were capable and seemingly very open-minded.
After getting married, the elders were also very kind to Lin Mei. They made her the head of the house as soon as she arrived. Old Lady Zheng was also good at helping look after the children and doing housework.
That way, Lin Mei could concentrate on going to the fields to earn work points.
However, Lin Mei was not satisfied with this. She felt that there was nothing much she could do by just earning work points, so she came up with other ideas.
Their village had grown a lot of cotton since ancient times and most of the families have old-fashioned looms, so she started weaving and selling fabrics with her mother-in-law.
It was difficult at the beginning and she had to be sneaky about it, but gradually she made a name for herself and became a small opportunistic leader, leading some braver women in the village to do the same.
She was caught several times in the process. Her man was useless, but her mother-in-law was so powerful that she always managed to bring her back.
From then on, she became famous to the point where sometimes, the Public Security Bureau turned a blind eye towards her actions. Afterwards, the policies became more relaxed and she became more comfortable with it.
At this moment, the entire Shanshui Commune has her go about with her ‘business’ and with her connections to Han Qingsong, the Marketing Management Personnel didn’t pay much attention to her.
She also appreciated it and was actually grateful for that, so she often sent her boys to give Lin Lan small gifts.
