Chapter 644: 180: Shangguan Furong was slapped_3
A stranger in the village always garnered curiosity.
âWhose relative is this? Such an ostentatious entrance.â
âI have no idea.â
âMaybe they are relatives of Yangyangâs family.â
âSeems like that to me.â
Looking at the curious villagers, a look of disdain crossed Shangguan Furongâs face.
Where there is poverty, there are peevish folks!
Have they never seen a wealthy person before?
Initially, Shangguan Furong had no intention of coming. Still, persuaded by the old lady Shangguan, she came.
No matter what, Shangguan Dehui was her brother.
She should save him face.
Shangguan Furong is not an unreasonable person.
But now, she regrets the decision terribly.
Looking at the villageâs low and humble earth houses, Shangguan Furongâs disdain intensified. Which era are we living in that people still inhabit such homes?
Does Ni Cuihuaâs family also live in such houses?
And the road is terrible! Cars canât even move on these rugged and potholed surfaces. Wearing high heels is an absolute torture, and itâs excruciating.
If Zhao Shen hadnât supported her, she wouldâve stumbled countless times!
Shangguan Furong, consumed with resentment, extends her hand to Zhao Shen, âIâm thirsty.â
âHereâs some mineral water.â Zhao Shen quickly hands her a bottle from his bag.
Shangguan Furong didnât reach out to take it.
Zhao Shen asked, puzzled, âWhatâs the matter?â
Shangguan Furong replied irritably, âOpen it! Are you, dead man?â
âOh, oh. Iâll open it for you now.â
âShangguan,â cries the old lady, âAll you know is how to bully Zhao Shen.
âAsk Zhao Shen if I bulldoze him,â counters Shangguan Furongâs.
âNo, no, my mother, You misunderstand. Furong never bullies me,â Zhao Shen responds instantly.
The old lady Shangguan shakes her head helplessly.
For Furong to marry Zhao Shen in this life; it must have been because she had accumulated a great deal of good karma in her previous life. Who else could tolerate her?
The Zhao family are all honest people.
Even Shangguan Furongâs mother-in-law hardly dares say a harsh word to her.
This was Shangguan Xiâs first time in the countryside, and her eyebrows and eyes were filled with curiosity.
âThe air in the countryside is so fresh!â
âWow! Is that sugarcane?â
Shangguan Xu knocked Shangguan Xi on the head, âThatâs corn.â
Shangguan Xi stared at Shangguan Xu, âSo smart of you! I intentionally said sugarcane. Iâm old enough. Donât I recognize crops?â
Shangguan Xu shrugged, âYes, yes, you know, you know them all.â
âOf course I recognize them!â To prove she really did recognize the crops, Shangguan Xi hugged the old lady Shangguanâs arm and pointed at a lush field, âGrandma, look at those beautiful little cabbages!â
The old lady Shangguan laughed and replied, âThatâs canola!â
âStupid.â Shangguan Xu flicked Shangguan Xiâs forehead.
Shangguan Xi moaned, touching her forehead, âI didnât get it wrong. Canola is another name for little cabbage.â
âThis canola isnât the same as the one we usually eat. It blooms in spring and produces seeds that could be used to extract cooking oil. Thatâs why itâs called canolaâ, explained the old lady Shangguan.
âYou kids are really lucky. Not only do you not have to do anything, but now you canât even recognize crops. When I was your age, I had traveled all over the country. â
Although born in a noble and wealthy family, the old lady Shangguan had lived through a time of war and hardship.
Feeling embarrassed, Shangguan Xi toyed with her hair and changed the subject, âDad, when will we finally get to Aunt Dayaâs place?â
âSoon.â Shangguan Dehui replied, âWhen we round the next bend, weâll be there.â
âOh.â
In no time, they arrived at the gate of Ni Chengguiâs quadrangle.
Shangguan Dehui, unaware that Ni Cuihuaâs family had moved to a new house, knocked on Ni Chengguiâs gate.
The obvious look of distaste on Shangguan Furongâs face as she studied the somewhat old quadrangle was hard to ignore.
This house is absolutely deteriorated!
No wonder Ni Cuihua is scheming to be with Shangguan Dehui.
Most likely, she wants to turn into the proverbial Phoenix?
What on earth Siang Dehui saw in a woman like Ni Cuihua was beyond Furongâs comprehension.
âCreak.â
Instead of their gate, the door next to it opened.
Ni Cuihua stood at the door.
âAuntie, Sister Xu Lian, Furong, Xiaoxu, Xiaoxi, you all came, come in quickly.â
Ni Cuihua welcomed everyone inside her house.
