Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Yang Jiahui understood, ”Alright, I’ll go to the Zeng Family tomorrow. Do you want to come along?”

”Sure, I’ll ask that girl. Also, if we really end up together, I’ll be away for three years.”

”Away? It’s not very safe out there.”

”Well, Dad, you’ll know when you see their siblings tomorrow.”

Yang Jiahui nodded. Of course, he knew that the two children of the Zeng Family had been away for two years. And indeed, he hadn’t seen them since they returned.

Yang Liulang came out of his father’s study. He walked around the house, looking at the scenes at home. He smiled.

Zeng Hongling felt much more relieved after talking with her father. After all, marriage was inevitable. Given that, Yang Liulang seemed pretty good. Based on his character, he would never do anything to betray her.

This way, there would be less to be upset about in the latter half of life, right? Let’s go with him. Besides, he also said he wouldn’t divorce.

The girl never thought about the possibility of rejection.

During dinner, everyone noticed that Zeng Hongling seemed much happier and guessed she had come to terms with something.

Zeng Yaozu was the happiest in his heart, as his granddaughter was about to start her own family. Now only his grandson was left. He was confident he would live to see the next generation of the Zeng Family.

Su Yuanyuan didn’t read that night either. After taking a shower and tidying up, she lay in bed.

With not much activity during the day, she couldn’t fall asleep after dark.

Her mind was on those three kids. She had always wished for memories of the times when the children were young.

But she genuinely had no impression at all, only feeling very uncomfortable when she saw the three children.

Such adorable children, they were hers. Su Yuanyuan smiled at the thought.

They could return in just over two years. She would patiently wait; after all, it was normal to forget them due to her injuries.

In two years, she would have someone to share her life with, and things wouldn’t be so strict then. They could travel all over the country with the kids. ”Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles.” By then, they wouldn’t be estranged, right?

Thinking along these lines, she didn’t know when she fell asleep.

The next morning, after exercising a bit, she cooked with Zeng Hongling.

”Feeling pretty good?” she teased her friend.

”Of course, once you figure things out, you feel better.”

After breakfast, the three of them went out together. Zeng Yaozu told them to come back early, as Yang Jiahui would definitely come by today.

”Grandpa, we’re just going out to buy groceries.”

”Still northern dishes today, be sure to make more seafood.”

”Grandpa, I’ve already soaked it. Don’t worry.”

”Yuanyuan, there’s pork today. I want to eat meat pies. Can you make the filling?”

”Sure, no problem.”

Zeng Yixin was in charge of carrying things behind them. They actually bought quite a lot: greens, fruits, meat.

”Zeng Hongling?”

Hearing a woman call her, Zeng Hongling turned around in surprise to see who it was.

”Zeng Hongling, you don’t recognize me, right?”

”I really can’t remember. Sorry about that.”

”It’s okay, it’s okay. We haven’t seen each other in a long time. We met at the Yang Family when we were kids. I’m Tian Susu.”

Zeng Hongling still couldn’t recall and decided not to waste brain cells on it.

”Did you need something?”

”No, no, I just saw you while shopping today and thought I’d say hello. It’s been so many years.”

Zeng Hongling really wanted to say, ”I don’t even know you, why greet me?”

”Sorry, we have guests at home today, we need to prepare.”

”Okay, visit me when you have time, I’m the third house on West Street.”

”Isn’t that the Li Family? So she’s married into the Li Family.”

”I’ll make time.”

The three of them turned and left, with Tian Susu watching their backs from behind.

Su Yuanyuan really disliked this woman. She had already guessed what she was thinking. So she came to see her, but how did she know Yang Liulang liked her?

And as a married woman thinking about other men, that’s really not normal.

”Yixin, do you know this woman?”

”I saw her before at the Yang Family. She used to follow Yang Liulang around. I’ve heard from the Eighth and Old Nine that this woman liked Yang Liulang, but got rejected. Eventually, when she got older, she could only marry Old Second of the Li Family, the one who has lost two wives.”

”Liked Yang Liulang? Was she here to see me? But how did she know? We haven’t even gotten an answer from the other side yet.”

Su Yuanyuan wanted to tell Zeng Hongling that woman was here to see her. But how was she supposed to say that? Forget it, as long as she doesn’t bother me, I won’t bother with her.

The three returned home, and Zeng Hongling declined Su Yuanyuan’s help, which was just as well. Su Yuanyuan felt this was a matchmaking banquet, to show the man’s family how virtuous she was, so she didn’t compete.

At around ten in the morning, the father and son from the Yang Family came over.

Everyone could tell from their attitude that the two young ones had agreed.

So Zeng Yaozu and Yang Jiahui were particularly warm, almost as if they were already in-laws.

Yang Jiahui watched as Zeng Hongling brought in some fruit and laughed, ”Oh my, the little girl is all grown up.”

”Hello, Uncle Yang.”

”Good, good. She’s truly become more beautiful.” The two children of the Zeng Family were indeed different, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on how.

Zeng Yixin went out to help. The living room was left with just four men.

”Uncle Zeng, I have high hopes for Xiao Liu and Hongling. How about you?” The man should express his feelings.

”I also have high hopes for the two kids. Xiao Liu is responsible, and my Hongling is not a fool.”

”That’s great, then, Uncle Zeng. I’ll have someone come propose tomorrow, and we’ll follow all the traditional customs.”

”Jiahui, don’t do that. We’ll be real relatives in the future, no need for formalities. It’s strict these days, let’s not make unnecessary trouble.”

”Uncle Zeng, doing that would make me feel I failed Hongling. I’ve practically watched this girl grow up.”

”No need. It’s not worth the trouble when everyone’s watching.”

Yang Jiahui sighed. ”I’ll make it up to Hongling in other ways later.

Uncle Zeng, since we’re not busy now, let’s pick a date and set their wedding. Xiao Liu isn’t getting any younger.”

Yang Liulang sat there properly, listening to the elders chat, not expecting the conversation to quickly turn to setting a wedding date.

But he had no objections. The Zeng Family must have gotten Zeng Hongling’s consent for this meeting to happen, so he was just waiting to get married.
