Chapter 158.1: Ancient Farmers’Son (15)
Widow Zhang was completely dumbfounded.
She knew before marrying Father Li that he was someone who liked to do good deeds, but it didn’t matter. Being taken care of by him was indeed very comfortable. Although she knew that it was Father Li who gave her money and food, and it was his daughter who suffered, so what? As long as she didn’t have to endure hardships herself, it was fine.
She had decent looks, but because she was a widow, she couldn’t find a good family. Although Father Li treated her well before, she wasn’t interested in him because he was too poor. But having a son-in-law who was a Juren was different. That was a Juren, and there were only a few in the entire county.
Father Li fulfilled all her requests, and now having a son-in-law who was a Juren meant a good marriage.
Widow Zhang regretted a bit that she hadn’t shown goodwill to Li Lanlan before she got married. But it didn’t matter. Could a daughter not obey her father’s words? When her father lacked money, could the daughter not give it? With Father Li, she had control over Li Lanlan.
That was Widow Zhang’s thought before she got married.
However, after getting married, she discovered that Father Li had some strange ideas and actually believed that the Lin family, which had a Juren, was poor.
If it wasn’t for her manipulative ways and serving Father Li diligently, she wouldn’t have been able to convince him to ask for money from the Lin family.
As a result, he went there, but not only did he not get any money, he ended up giving away a lot.
