Rebirth 1983: Building My Business Empire

Chapter 546: Chapter 529 Education is the Top Priority

Big Aunt selected a girl named Lin Zhizhi for Lu Yun, an eighteen-year-old, delicate flower with a spirited essence. The moment Lu Yun set eyes on her during their meeting, he was taken by her. Conversely, Lin Zhizhi, who was reluctant due to his age and the fact that it was his second marriage, only agreed after repeated persuasion from her family.

Once Lin Zhizhi relented, the two families immediately set the wedding, with the date arranged for the sixth day of the third lunar month. Second Sister-in-law Lu couldn’t make it back, as returning would mean closing her noodle shop. A small business like hers, closing for over ten days would lead customers to think it had gone under, never to return.

Lu Hongjun had already planned to return to his hometown with the arrival of spring. When he learned that Lu Yun’s wedding was set for just ten days later, he discussed it with Hongjun. Second Sister-in-law Lu might not be able to return, but Lu Jiazong definitely had to; it was a matter of family obligation.

After purchasing the tickets, Second Sister-in-law Lu bought a gold bracelet for him to take back, instructing him to give it to the bride on the day after the wedding as a first meeting gift from her as the mother-in-law.

Second Sister-in-law Lu always tried to be fair to her three sons. On the night she accompanied Lu Hongjun back to their hometown, she went to the family compound, partly to see her children, and also to give Maizi a gold bracelet as well.

Maizi immediately tried to refuse the gold bracelet, saying, “Mom, I can’t accept this. You’ve been running the household all these years and haven’t even bought any jewelry for yourself. Keep the bracelet for yourself; if I want one, I’ll ask Shanzi to buy it.”
