Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 430: Chapter 430: Must Break Away

”But sometimes, good intentions can lead to bad results,” Gu Juan turned her head and said, ”You’re just thinking about how to control your daughter-in-law, but have you ever thought that if my brother can marry a capable wife, he can go further in the army.”

”Then would our family still need to beg others?”

”Just thinking about controlling a daughter-in-law, what help could Wang Peiling offer my brother? It would be good enough if she doesn’t hold him back,” Gu Juan said sarcastically. ”But if my brother marries a wife with family background, not only can she help him climb higher in his career, but the family won’t hold him back.”

What does Wang Peiling’s family have?

The younger brothers all depend on her, and even people in the village would think twice about such a situation, yet Wang Meili treats her like some kind of treasure?

With this reminder, Wang Meili suddenly felt enlightened.

”My Juanzi has grown up,” Wang Meili said with satisfaction.

Gu Juan smiled, yawned, and returned to her room to sleep. She thought Wang Meili would have understood this truth after this year, but didn’t expect her vision to still be so narrow.

Grown up?

She’s just been forced to be like this.

In the future, Gu Juan wants to climb higher and hold more power so that people won’t look down on her.

Meanwhile, in Nanshui Village, as Liu Miao just returned home, she saw her older brother holding a bowl of meat, and when he saw Liu Miao return, he smiled awkwardly, ”Miao Miao, why are you back today?”

Liu Miao nodded, ”Brother, the family’s meals have been quite good lately.”

”Well... it’s because I’m weak, so we’re thinking of nourishing me. Don’t worry, there’s some left for you,” Liu Tian said with a sheepish smile, ”Mom, Miao Miao is back, quickly bring her meat out.”

This brat, why did she come back today, and just caught him eating alone.

”Miao Miao is back,” Mrs. Liu came out of the kitchen with an apron, carrying a bowl, ”Come, have some meat quickly.”

Liu Miao looked at the bowl with just a few pieces of meat at the bottom and smiled faintly, ”I don’t want it, let my brother have it.”

She couldn’t care less about those few pieces of meat.

But her heart felt colder.

It was all bought with her salary.

She felt even more determined to seize this opportunity to get Gu Haojun.

As long as she marries him, she will have Gu Haojun apply to be stationed with her, and never return to Nanshui Village again.

”Miao Miao, are you getting paid tomorrow?” Liu Tian came over and asked, ”Brother is a bit short on cash lately, can you lend me some money?”

”I handed all my money to mom, where would I have any money left?” Liu Miao said while washing her face.

”Come on, don’t think I don’t know, you only handed part of it to mom,” Liu Tian smirked, ”I’ve asked around, you earn 18 yuan and 3 mao a month, yet you only gave mom 13 yuan. Where’s the rest of the money gone?”

”Don’t I need to eat and drink?” Liu Miao retorted, pouring out the water from the basin, then turning to leave.

”That brat,” Liu Tian cursed behind her.

Liu Miao ignored him completely, her initial thought of asking him for help was abandoned. If Liu Tian got hold of any leverage, what good days could she expect ahead?

As for her mother, not worth mentioning, in her eyes, her daughter is just a liability, wishing everything would go to her son, Liu Tian.

This has caused Liu Tian to reach such an age while still idling away at home.

This family, she must break away from it as soon as possible.
