Rebirth of a Village Girl novel Chapter 1057

Chapter 1057: 268: The Second Silly Dog Among Birds (Chapter Seventeen)

"Uncle Du nodded, ’As long as you’re aware, that’s good.’"

The two had a long conversation, until Ni Yang finished half of the book, and Mo Qishen called for her to go back.

Ni Yang stretched lazily and yawned, "Are we going back now?"

"Mhm," Mo Qishen reached out his hand toward Ni Yang.

Ni Yang, out of habit, placed the book upside down on the desk and her right hand on top of Mo Qishen’s.

Uncle Du saw them out.

Mo Qishen got into the driver’s seat, "Uncle Du, you should head back soon, it gets cold at night."

Uncle Du nodded, "Drive slowly on your way."

"Don’t worry."

It was at this moment that Ni Yang suddenly remembered something and turned her head, "Oh, Uncle Du, we brought some steamed buns and lotus root balls from home, I left them on the table in the Tea Room. The Tea Room is warm; it would be best to put them in the fridge when you get back."

"Okay," Uncle Du nodded.

"Then, we’ll head off first," Ni Yang waved at him.

Uncle Du also turned to walk back into the house.

Watching his desolate figure, Ni Yang sighed softly, "What do you think keeps Uncle Du from settling down? It’s so lonely like this."

Perhaps having experienced similar loneliness in a past life, Ni Yang now feared loneliness the most.

Especially waking up alone in bed to find not a single person to talk to—it was terrifying.

Mo Qishen, holding the steering wheel with both hands, said, "To each their own; we may think Uncle Du is very lonely, but that’s not necessarily true."

Ni Yang nodded, "That’s true. If he really wanted to settle down, he wouldn’t have married two beautiful wives just for show."

After speaking, Ni Yang added, "Oh, why do Uncle Du and Sister Jiaojiao both call you Pei Zhi?"

In fact, Ni Yang had wanted to ask this question for a long time but never found the opportunity.

Pei Zhi answered, "Pei Zhi is my courtesy name."

Courtesy name?

Ni Yang hesitated, then continued, "Like the Poet Immortal Li Bai, whose courtesy name was Taibai?"

Mo Qishen nodded slightly, "Yes, Yangyang is really smart."

Ni Yang was about to flaunt her pride when the man followed up with two more words, "Follow me."

Ni Yang: "..."

The next day was New Year’s Eve.

Last year’s New Year’s Eve was before Ni Cuihua and the elderly Master Zheng and Madam Zheng had acknowledged each other, so this year was their first reunion New Year.

Ni Yang was woken up early in the morning by Duoduo.

"It’s New Year’s! It’s New Year’s! Yangyang, get up!"

Ni Yang said, somewhat speechless, "You’re a bird, what does New Year’s have to do with you?"

Duoduo glared with his small eyes, defiantly saying, "You’re a bird, your whole family are birds!"

Possibly due to spending too much time with people, Duoduo seemed to have forgotten his species. _{frёeweɓηovel.coɱ}

Ni Yang narrowed her eyes slightly, "You dog son, say that again!"

Duoduo fearlessly retorted, "You’re a bird, your whole family are birds!"

Ni Yang said with a smile, "Good, you won’t have lunch today."

"Heh," Duoduo turned his backside toward Ni Yang, "I’m not afraid of you!"

"Great, you’ve completely lost your mother now!" Ni Yang casually grabbed a pillow and threw it towards Duoduo.

Duoduo agilely dodged the pillow.

"You’re so dumb! Yangyang is so dumb! Yangyang is a big fool!"

Ni Yang: "..." She must have been crazy to have adopted such a bird!

Since she was already woken up by Duoduo, Ni Yang sat up in bed, grabbed some clothes, and went to the bathroom to change.

The festive atmosphere in the countryside was very strong. After changing her clothes and going downstairs, Ni Yang heard bursts of firecrackers.

In the dining room, everyone had already started eating breakfast.

Shangguan Xi, upon seeing Ni Yang, smiled and said, "Yangyang, you’re up, come and eat. After breakfast, let’s go to the fields and pick some roses to decorate the house."

Now, not a trace of Shangguan Xi’s heartbreak could be seen.

Ni Yang nodded, "Okay."
