Chapter 1080 - 1079: Endless Entanglement 9
So when everyone heard Wang Lingzhi accuse the Lu Family of making Guan Cheng work like a horse and an ox, they almost laughed themselves to death.
Not to mention distant examples, even Wang Lingzhi’s own life wasn’t as good as the Guan brothers’!
Even though the amount of food rations was the same for everyone, the Lu Family weren’t short of money. Now, with the salaries of three military personnel, and Lu Jiang being a high-ranking officer in the army earning two to three hundred yuan a month, they had military supply vouchers. They could get hold of many things ordinary people couldn’t, and with money, they could buy fabric and offal that didn’t require coupons. Did Wang Xinlai’s family have that ability?
Wang Lingzhi’s school fees were scraped together by her parents’ scrimping and saving, plus help from her two older sisters’ families.
Given a choice, people would rather serve as oxen and horses in the Lu Family than live the pinching and scraping life of a winter-stricken cat in Wang Xinlai’s household.
Not to mention that Father Lu and Feng Qingxue, mother and son, had met veteran leaders and taken photos with them, possessing written inscriptions from these leaders, which invisibly coated the Lu Family in gold. Guan Cheng and Guan Yu’s futures were bound to be extraordinary!
Guan Cheng himself was extremely outstanding. Wang Xinlai’s family dreamed of having such an excellent young man as their son-in-law, wishful thinking indeed!
So many families wanted to marry their daughters to Guan Cheng and felt unworthy of him, so how could they have the audacity to broach the subject? Especially after Guan Cheng had rejected them time and time again, and yet Wang Lingzhi continued to pester him.
Wang Lingzhi was utterly deaf to what everyone said; she was convinced that the Lu Family mistreated Guan Cheng and bound him. Only in her own home would Guan Cheng be able to live a good, carefree life because she loved him so dearly she wished she could carve out her heart to present before him, all for an extra glance from him.
