Zhan Xiaojun's red lips curved upwards.
She had intended to say something.
But Lin Ya's words were precisely to the point.
Lin Jing looked at Xiaojun.
Lin Jing mouthed to Xiaojun, "My sister seems like a different person!"
"Everyone changes," Zhan Xiaojun mouthed back.
Then the two of them smiled together.
Change was a good thing!
Don't always think others are easy to bully.
And don't think you're clever and others are fools to be deceived at your whim. No one is foolish!
Auntie reacted quickly, blinking twice and swallowing. "That, that, we all came to Yan City today because of you siblings, right? We also wanted to see Xiaojun and weren't in a hurry to go back."
"Yes, let's not talk about unpleasant things. It's rare for our family to meet, so let's get together and chat. We can resolve Xiao Kai's matter when we get back, it's not a big deal," Uncle said, his eyes darting around as he waved his hand.
He never imagined that things happening in the countryside could reach Yan City.
They couldn't leave now.
Since they had come, they had to achieve their goals before leaving. Otherwise, wouldn't the travel expenses be wasted?
"Yes, I miss Xiaojun. Xiaojun, we used to play so well when we were little. You always followed me around and called me brother every day. If I didn't take you to play, you'd cry. We haven't seen each other for so long, don't you miss me?" Lin Kai looked at Zhan Xiaojun.
The more he looked, the more he was shocked.
Her eyes were still the same eyes, her nose still the same nose, but why did she look like two different people?
The current Zhan Xiaojun was captivating.
Just standing there, without saying a word, she could make people's hearts flutter.
If they weren't cousins, he would have really wanted to pursue her.
However, their relationship was distant. Her mother and his father were cousins, so there wasn't much kinship between them, right?
If he wanted to, he could!
After Lin Kai finished speaking, he stroked his chin, his eyes glinting as he appraised Zhan Xiaojun.
Lin Jing was almost driven mad by this family's shamelessness, and he sneered, "Xiaojun doesn't miss you, and neither do my sister and I. Take your things and leave. Let's not contact each other anymore. You've caused so much trouble in the countryside with such a bad reputation; it would be bad if it implicated us. We are decent people."
Did you see how Lin Kai looked just now?
His gaze at Xiaojun was lewd!
"Lin Jing, you are my nephew. Look at what you're saying!" Uncle's face turned bright red, and he gritted his teeth, looking at Lin Jing.
This Lin Jing was truly unlikable!
And he dared to speak to them like that.
And to chase them away.
"Yes, Lin Jing. Everyone in our village knows we came to Yan City. If they know we were driven away, we'll lose face, and so will you, won't you? No matter what, we brought gifts. Don't go too far! It won't do you any good to go too far," Auntie said angrily.
If it were in the past, she wouldn't even spare Lin Jing and Lin Ya a glance.
What was there to show off about a poor wretch?
Living in such a big house, wasn't it still rented?
Lin Kai saw that Zhan Xiaojun didn't even look at him, treating his words as if they were wind. She was giving him no face at all. Where would that leave his pride?
His eyes flickered, and he smiled at Zhan Xiaojun, "Xiaojun, didn't you used to like Zhang Chao? He even asked about you these past few days. Do you know what he's doing now? He's also in Yan City. He learned to operate excavators last year and went to a construction site this year. He said he could earn several hundred to a thousand a day, so his monthly income is twenty to thirty thousand. Guess what? He said the girlfriends he found in Yan City weren't to his liking. He said he hasn't forgotten you and wants to get together. He asked me for your WeChat. I don't have your WeChat yet. Let's add each other as siblings on WeChat, and then I'll introduce you to him!"
"You only earn a few thousand yuan in Yan City. He's always been generous. If you get in touch with him, he'll definitely spend a lot of money on you!"
"What nonsense are you talking about! Does that kid Zhang Chao deserve Xiaojun? Xiaojun can earn money herself, and I can spend money on her. We don't need your concern!" Lin Jing said angrily.
Lin Ya was also angry. "Ya has just celebrated her twentieth birthday. At such a young age, she doesn't want to date."
"I'm doing this for Xiaojun's good, and for Auntie's good too! Fine, I'll take back what I said," Lin Kai pouted.
Did they really think they were superior just because they went to the city to work?
However, it was good that she wasn't thinking about Zhang Chao.
Uncle and Auntie's faces turned grim.
No matter what they said, they wouldn't get a good reaction. It was too infuriating!
"Twenty years old is not young. In our village, many twenty-year-old girls are already married, and many have one or two children," Auntie said.
Lin Ya was a little annoyed. "I don't want Xiaojun to get married so early."
"By the way, Xiaojun, have you dated anyone in the city?" Lin Kai stared at Zhan Xiaojun and asked.
Zhan Xiaojun's cold eyes swept towards Lin Kai. "Does it concern you?"
This family was truly annoying.
If this world wasn't a society ruled by law, and if Lin Ya wasn't timid, she would have already silenced them.
"It doesn't concern me, I'm just curious," Lin Kai rubbed his nose and chuckled.
"It's not your place to be curious," Lin Jing said coldly.
"You!" Lin Kai glared at Lin Jing furiously.
An old man in his thirties who had never touched a woman was not only a disgrace to men but also dared to mock him!
Zhan Xiaojun looked at the shameless trio in front of her and said to Lin Ya, "Mom, Uncle, a friend has invited us to dinner. It's almost time, let's go, the three of us."
Lin Ya was stunned for a moment. Go to dinner? "Ah, okay, I'll get ready now."
Then, as if she thought of something, she looked at Uncle and Auntie. "Cousin, Cousin-in-law, I won't keep you any longer. Your timing is unfortunate; we have to go out now. When we return to the countryside, we'll visit you then."
Anyone could understand these words; they meant they didn't want to waste any more time and wanted them to leave.
Then, while the three were still stunned, Lin Ya placed the cured sausages from the table back into their hands.
"We still have a lot of cured sausages in the refrigerator, and peanuts too. We can't finish so much, so keep it for yourselves. You're reluctant to eat it yourselves, so keep it for yourselves. It's getting late, you should go and get busy."
The three were shocked by their dismissive attitude.
"You're not letting us stay? We came to you for support! And you have so many rooms, give us two rooms to stay in for a few days! How can you chase us out when we're family? Why waste money letting us stay outside?" Auntie said indignantly, her face red.
She never imagined that after Lin Ya came to Yan City, she would become a different person!
And she learned to chase people away!
Since they had come, they had no intention of leaving so easily!
