364: Chapter 364: An Actor (Second Update)_1 364: Chapter 364: An Actor (Second Update)_1 Yang Ruxin just held the hatchet and watched the other party coldly, âIf Third Aunt is joking, then Iâm joking too.â With that, she flicked her wrist, and the hatchet whooshed through the air, thunking into a piece of wood.
Yang Baihui shuddered subconsciously, her face trembling, âDani, I know your grandparentsâ actions are not decent, but theyâre our elders, and we canât just disregard them, can we?
Third Aunt understands you.â
In fact, Ruxinâs feelings for this âThird Auntâ could no longer be simply described with the word âadmirationâ.
She was extremely admiring.
To still be enduring after being beaten like that?
Indeed promising.
Soon after, she nodded her head, âThen thank you, Third Aunt, for your understanding.â
Yang Baihui felt nauseous inside but could only grit her teeth and bear it, âThird Auntâs temper isnât too good; I might have been a bit rash just now, donât mind me.
I came over this time because I have somethingâŠâ
Ruxinâs mouth curled slightly, âThen please speak, Third Aunt.â
Yang Baihui settled her emotions and struggled to stand up, touching her swollen face, âDani, with your older brother gone, and your mother in that stateâŠ
itâs quite pitiful,â she said, lowering her head to wipe a tear.
Ruxin pinched the bridge of her nose; this person was quite the actor.
âYou see, a family without an elder to take care of things is never quite right,â Yang Baihui quickly dried her tears and let out a small sigh, âI only found out after I came back that there were some misunderstandings about you and the second son of the Gu Family.
Although it was a misunderstanding, it still damages a girlâs reputation, doesnât it?â
Ruxinâs eyes narrowed slightly.
It seemed her own marriage truly caused these people to rack their brains.
She didnât even need to listen further; this was a visit to play matchmaker.
âThird Aunt wants to set you up with a match, a young man of good standing and well-known roots.â As expected, Yang Baihuiâs lips curled up at this point.
She indeed intended to make the match; the prospective groom was her eldest son.
Thereâs a saying that cousins are blood relatives too.
Actually, if it werenât for the fact that she heard Ruxin had hunted a Black Bear and obtained the silver, she wouldnât even consider Xun Hui, that cheap woman.
Her son had studied for a couple of years, and even though he hadnât obtained any titles, he was now an accounting apprentice at the biggest grain shop in Qinghua Town.
And with the old account manager getting on in years and soon unable to continue working, her son would become the proper account manager.
Such a young managerâthere are just a few in the entire Baihua County.
In reality, the said account manager was just over fifty and far from being unable to work.
It was just her own daily fantasy that he would be unable to continue soon.
Thinking about it over and over, she started to believe it was true.
But even if that were true, how could the shopkeeper trust a boy in his teens to take over the accounting room directly?
It was just something Yang Baihui chose not to think about.
Of course, she wasnât genuinely willing to have Yang Dani as her daughter-in-law.
She figured that after her son married her and took out the silver, the girl could just stay at home and work; later, if her son fancied some other girl, he could just marry another one.
It had to be said, her plans were quite well thought out.
Yang Ruxin laughed, âThank you for your concern, Third Aunt, but I will decide my marriage affairs myself, and I donât need anyone else to worry about it.â
âWhat do you mean âdecide it yourselfâ?â Yang Baihui stood up abruptly, âHow can a child like you speak without feeling ashamed?
Thatâs settled, then.
Iâll bring him over in a few days to discuss the wedding date with your grandparents.â With that, she actually got up and walked out, clearly not wanting to hear Ruxin refuse.
It seemed that by doing this, her plans would succeed.
