Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 10

WANT TO MARRY ME?

Li Shu immediately put down her chopsticks, "Brother Jinbao, my cousin is here! You better go open the door!"

Lady Mu urged anxiously, "Hurry up! Don't keep him waiting!"

Lady Mu was afraid that the 200 yuan would sprout wings and fly away.

"Alright." Mu Jinbao put down his bowl and chopsticks and quickly ran to the door.

Li Shu looked up at Ni Yang, a triumphant glimmer in her eyes.

Little wretch, you have nowhere to run now, do you?

You're going to be taken away by an old bachelor today.

Suddenly--

She met a pair of radiant eyes, shining bright like the stars, Ni Yang gave a faint smile, the corners of her mouth curling up into a light arc. This pure, untainted smile could reveal the true nature of anything sordid.

Her eyes were filled with clarity.

So radiant and confident!

She doesn't look like a naive girl brought up in a tiny village.

Li Shu felt an inexplicable shiver and quickly averted her gaze, her hollowed out throat swallowing as if she were a child who had done something wrong.

This is insanity!

How can this little village girl possess such a gaze?

Li Shu frowned, filled with bewilderment, she found it hard to discern whether that scene was an illusion or real.

Li Shu suppressed her chills and looked at Ni Yang again.

Li Shu, with her forehead crinkled, looked back at Ni Yang who sat opposite her.

Today, Ni Yang wore that pink dress gifted by Lady Mu. The dress was rather simple with long-sleeves and a doll-collar, reaching down to her ankles.

Yet, such an old-fashioned dress somehow made Ni Yang look vibrantly classic. The sunlight streaming in from outside illuminated her, making her seem like a fairy high up in the clouds.

Li Shu always believed her beloved daughter, Li Xianxian, was the most beautiful, but at this moment, she had to admit that if Li Xianxian were to stand beside Ni Yang, she'd probably go unnoticed.

At this moment, the sounds outside the door became increasingly clear.

"This way, this way, follow me." That was Mu Jinbao's fawning voice.

In a short while, Mu Jinbao ushered the man in.

The man standing next to Mu Jinbao looked about sixty years old, with a belly bigger than Li Shu's. His shiny bald head and rodent eyes darted everywhere. When he smiled, a mouthful of big yellow teeth was revealed.

Yes.

This was Li Shu's distant cousin.

Mu Jinbao smilingly introduced, "Mom, this is Wang Dazhuang. Dazhuang, this is my mom, this is my wife Ni Cuihua and this one is Yangyang."

Upon seeing Ni Yang, Wang Dazhuang's eyes instantly lit up.

This young girl is so pretty.

It's a bargain to buy her back for 200 yuan!

Wang Dazhuang swallowed his saliva, moved his gaze away from Ni Yang and greeted everyone in the room, "Hello Granny, hello Auntie! I'm Wang Dazhuang!"

Being addressed as 'Granny' by someone of a similar age didn't bother Lady Mu at all. She even reciprocated with a smile, "Very good! So you're Dazhuang, you're quite a spirited young man!"
