My Beloved Super Fierce Wife
Chapter 457: No one can withstand his onslaught.

Chapter 457: No one can withstand his onslaught.

Seeing Lin Tang walking with a young man, she immediately understood the situation.

Well, this must be Lin Tang’s partner!

He certainly looks respectable.

Even more respectable than they had imagined.

One of the men resting under the shade of a tree asked Lin Lu, "Brother Lin, is this comrade your daughter Lin Tang’s partner?"

Lin Lu took a drag of his cigarette, a touch of wistfulness in his eyes.

"Yes! Time flies; the little girl has reached the age to be married off."

Thinking of his daughter getting married in a couple of years, the nearly six-foot man felt a sourness in his eyes.

However, there were too many people at the grain drying ground, so he managed to maintain his composure.

Gu Yingzhou had no idea about the complexity in his future father-in-law’s heart.

At the moment, he was busy boosting his likeability.

Gu Yingzhou could be the factory director not only because of his solid professional skills but also because he was sociable and adept at conversation. While he might not be extremely smooth in his dealings, he was certainly persuasive.

When he really put his mind to making a good impression, no one could withstand his charm offensive.

Gu Yingzhou took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and offered them to the few men present.

He said with particular confidence:

"Hello, uncles, I’m Lin Tang’s partner, Gu Yingzhou, and soon to be a son-in-law of the Shuangshan Brigade.

I have long heard from Lin Tang about how warm and straightforward you uncles of the brigade are, and I see it’s true.

I was in a hurry when I left and only brought a pack of cigarettes, so I hope you don’t mind."

Lin Tang had never seen such a down-to-earth side of Gu Yingzhou.

Witnessing this scene, she updated her understanding of men once more.

She could hardly believe that this was her aloof and remote partner.

A question mark slowly appeared on her forehead, "?!"

Can people’s hearts really be so unpredictable?

The village men appreciated that such a respectable young man did not look down on them and even offered them what appeared to be high-grade cigarettes, and their impression of Gu Yingzhou improved dramatically.

The villagers accepted the cigarettes and expressed their gratitude: "Thank you!"

Having received a small gift from the young man, they naturally had to speak well of him.

They turned to Lin Lu:

"Brother Lin, your future son-in-law is quite impressive."

"Lin Tang’s partner is generous, and they both look good—one handsome and the other pretty. This truly matches the saying... a talented man and a beautiful lady."

"When are you planning the event? And where will it be held?"

Gu Yingzhou glanced at Lin Lu and Lin Tang with a modest expression.

"Lin Tang is still young, so there’s no hurry. As for where... I’ll follow Lin Tang’s wishes, wherever she wants to have it."

After saying this, he also gave his own opinion, "Personally, I’d like to have two ceremonies, one here in the village and another in the city."

If they were to hold a banquet in Shuangshan Brigade, not all his family members might be able to come, so he planned to have two ceremonies.

The wedding was important to him, he wanted to tell everyone that Lin Tang was the spouse he, Gu Yingzhou, had married formally and the love he cherished from his heart.

To honor and respect her.

Hearing this, Lin Lu’s face remained unreadable, but inside he was increasingly pleased with his future son-in-law.

It was clear that the young man truly cherished his daughter.

At last, a woman remembered a key question, wiped her sweat, and asked, "Comrade, where are you from? What’s your family’s attitude towards Lin Tang?"

She had heard stories about wealthy families loving to break up young couples.

The woman’s question was not out of line, and Gu Yingzhou replied: "My family is from Jing City."

"Lin Tang is great, my family likes her very much, and they are all looking forward to meeting her."

His words weren’t false.

Lady Ruan Shu was extremely curious about Lin Tang, constantly muttering that the girl who had broken her youngest son’s fate of living a solitary life must be a really good person—how else would she have taken an interest in her disdainful, detestable son?

The villagers were left speechless with envy.

Jing City... That’s the capital!

Lin Tang has such good taste; even her partner is extremely impressive. Truly the child of someone else’s family.

They were silent for a while before they found their voices again.

"...That’s wonderful!"

Gu Yingzhou knew about Lin Tang’s desire to change the living environment for the girls of the brigade.

His eyes flickered, and he seemed to casually say:

"Lin Tang is very outstanding. It’s my good fortune to be in a relationship with her."

The women of the village were amazed.

In their view, Lin Tang being in a relationship with this young man from Jing City seemed like she was the one at an advantage, yet he was saying it was his fortune.

They didn’t understand.

"How could that be?"

Gu Yingzhou shook his head, his gaze affectionately glancing at the petite girl by his side as he said:

"One’s background doesn’t decide everything; only one’s own strength can change one’s plight.

Doesn’t Lin Tang’s experience prove this? She’s educated, resilient, and down-to-earth, which is why she can go further.

Knowledge changes fate; being born in the countryside doesn’t mean there’s no chance to change your life. Education offers a path, but many people overlook this path due to prejudice.

On this matter, I admire Uncle Lin.

For a farmer to grit his teeth and support his children’s education, that’s commendable and something many are unable to do. The Lin family deserves their good life."

Lin Lu was suddenly adorned with high praise, almost choking on his cigarette smoke.

Seeing his future son-in-law speaking so earnestly and genuinely, his weather-beaten face flushed slightly.

Cough! The young man sure knew how to flatter.

"It’s Lin Tang who knows how to mind our hardships; she studied day and night." Lin Lu chuckled as he passed the credit to Lin Tang.

It wasn’t that no one in the brigade had sent their children to school, but some just didn’t make anything of themselves, like Liu Guohui, for instance.

Liu Guohui: You might as well just announce my social security number out loud!

After listening to Gu Yingzhou’s rhetoric, Lin Tang gave a silent thumbs up.

She wanted to slap the former self that naively thought Comrade Yingzhou was not good with words awake.

The man could really talk.

No wonder her dad was already caught in the sweet lure and couldn’t escape.

It was simply skr. (ㅍ_ㅍ)

Others present fell into thought after hearing his speech.

Did the young man mean that they should send their kids to school to learn knowledge?! It seemed to make sense.

If Lin Tang hadn’t been educated, she wouldn’t have been able to join the Textile Factory.

If she hadn’t joined the Textile Factory, she would not have met this outstanding young comrade.

How else could you come into contact with outstanding young people while digging around in the fields all day?

The questioning woman bit her lip and said, "I’m going to send all the kids in my house to school, both boys and girls."

Parents work and fret all their lives for the sake of their children’s welfare.

Now that Lin Tang’s partner had put it so clearly, if she didn’t act, she would be as foolish as a pig.

Another man added, "Indeed, we should send them. I only have one daughter; if she can secure a stable job and find a reliable husband, her mother and I will be at ease."

"Me too..."

"I’ll discuss it with the kids’ mother when I get back."

Seeing that he had stirred up everyone, Gu Yingzhou smiled subtly, his merits intentionally concealed.

Lin Tang, seizing the moment when no one was paying attention, hooked her finger around the man’s little finger.

Using herself as a stepping stone, this move was slick.

But it was effective!

Gu Yingzhou pinched her fingertip, squeezed it briefly, and then let go.
