Rebirth of a Village Girl novel Chapter 842

Chapter 842: 212: Yangyang giving life lessons online

Hearing that Wu Dalong knew the way to Ni Yang’s house, Wu Erlong was overjoyed. He quickly grabbed Wu Dalong’s hand as if he had grasped the last straw for salvation, "Let’s go, then we must find Sister Yangyang quickly!"

Hand in hand, the brothers ran swiftly towards the Zheng Family’s direction.

The atmosphere in the Wu Family’s courtyard was very oppressive, and ironically, the door was covered with many "happiness" characters.

Wu Jinshu and Yan Erju sat in the living room, wiping away their tears.

They were just simple peasants; faced with this kind of situation, they had no idea what to do.

Grandma Wu came in from outside, "Stop crying. It’s a bad omen to wipe tears on a joyous day. Yanyun isn’t just your daughter; she’s my granddaughter too. Would I, as her grandmother, harm her?"

"Harm her?" Yan Erju said angrily. "Isn’t selling her off to be someone else’s stepmother harming her? Is there any grandmother as cruel as you in the world?"

Wu Jinshu let out a deep sigh.

His mother indeed hadn’t had an easy life. She became a widow at 28, and the year his father died, he was 10, and Wu Jinjin was only 6. During the year of the great famine, he didn’t know how his mother had survived.

By rights, he should have been able to understand his mother, but he just couldn’t.

She was someone who had gone through so many hardships. Now that life had barely become a bit easier, why couldn’t she just live peacefully?

"Mother, do you really have to turn our home upside down and destroy our family before you can be happy?" Wu Jinshu looked at Grandma Wu with eyes filled with disappointment.

"Old mother" was dialect from their hometown, and since coming to Beijing, he seldom referred to Grandma Wu that way.

Grandma Wu gave Wu Jinshu a withering look, "Today is a big happy day for Yanyun. I don’t want to argue with you! And I don’t want to quarrel! Lest we become the laughing stock of others! You may hate me today, but perhaps after moving into the small western-style house tomorrow, you will be grateful to me! Don’t think I don’t know, in fact, you are just putting on an act. Deep down, you’re hoping to marry Yanyun off to Wu Qiang! Who wouldn’t want to live in such a fine house? Don’t pretend to be virtuous after getting the benefits!"

After all, Yanyun wasn’t the biological child of Yan Erju and Wu Jinshu. Grandma Wu didn’t believe they would be so heartbroken over a wild girl whose background was unknown.

In an era where even a full meal was difficult to come by, a girl being able to exchange for so many good things would have many parents eager to send their daughters there without getting the chance!

Hearing this, Yan Erju grabbed a teacup used for drinking water and threw it, "Shut up! Shut up!"
