Rebirth of a Village Girl - Chapter 524

Chapter 524: 142: Lin Fang and her Daughter’s Dream of Living in Luxury Shattered_5

Shangguan Furong looked at Xu Lian, a displeased light surfacing in her eyes.

“Mom, I think Lin Fang and my brother make a good match. Why not finalize the date today?”

If Xu Lian did not agree, she would deliberately go against Xu Lian!

Upon hearing this, Lin Fang cast a grateful look at Shangguan Furong.

She wasn’t sure if Shangguan Furong could actually save her…

“Do you have any right to speak here?” the old lady Shangguan looked at Shangguan Furong, her face filled with anger.

Shangguan Furong suddenly fell silent, her face looking a bit unwell.

Ever since she got married, the old lady Shangguan had rarely shown her any unpleasant expression. She did not expect that today, she would treat her like this!

The old lady Shangguan then said, “Butler!”

“Coming.” The butler immediately walked over.

“Escort out comrade Lin Fang and her daughter. The Lin Family does not welcome these kinds of people!” The old lady Shangguan did not leave any face for Lin Fang and her daughter.

“Yes, old lady.” The butler turned to look at Lin Fang and Chang Yue, “Both of you, please.”

“Wait a minute.” The old lady Shangguan continued.

“Do you have any other orders, old lady?” The butler turned back.

“Take their things as well.” The old lady Shangguan continued.

The butler immediately took the two items brought by Lin Fang.

Lin Fang still felt unwilling. As she turned around, she walked over and grabbed the old lady’s hand, explaining with a pale face, “The old lady, let me explain, that day it really was a misunderstanding, I am not actually…”

“Go away!” The old lady Shangguan was not a fool. How could she tolerate Lin Fang distorting the truth again? “Butler!”

“Yes, old lady!” The butler immediately motioned to the other servants on the side.

Before Lin Fang could react, she was already dragged away by the servants.

Leaving Shangguan Dehui, Shangguan Furong, Shangguan Xi, and Shangguan Xu filled with doubt.

But currently, the old lady Shangguan was furious, and none of them dared to speak.

“Dehui, come upstairs with me.” After speaking, the old lady Shangguan turned and walked toward the study room upstairs.

Shangguan Dehui hurried to follow her steps.

“Mom, what exactly is going on?” Shangguan Dehui hesitated before asking.

The old lady Shangguan continued, “Are you asking me why I treated Lin Fang this way?”

“Mmm.” Shangguan Dehui nodded.

The old lady Shangguan continued, “Then let me tell you properly, sit down first.”

Shangguan Dehui sat on a nearby stool.

Only then did the old lady Shangguan talk about the incident that happened at the clothing market two days ago, “… Dehui, you cannot be deceived by that Lin Fang, a woman like that is not qualified to step through the gates of our Shangguan family!”

At her words, Shangguan Dehui frowned slightly, “Lin Fang always appeared to be very good in front of me, showing much love and care, I really didn’t think she was this kind of person.”

The old lady Shangguan now felt extremely relieved about her decision to go to the clothing market that day, otherwise, they would not have discovered that Lin Fang and her daughter were these kinds of people!

“It’s not too late to know, it’s better to break off with her early.”

Shangguan Dehui nodded, “You can rest assured about this.”

The old lady Shangguan rubbed her temples, “Alright, you can go downstairs now, I need to rest.”

Shangguan Dehui walked downstairs.

As soon as he went downstairs, everyone eagerly surrounded him, “Bro, what did mom tell you? What did she mean? How did Lin Fang offend her to make her so angry? Or is someone intentionally causing discord?”

The last sentence had some biting implication attached.

Xu Lian was somewhat unhappy, but she did not stoop down to Furong’s level.

Shangguan Dehui said, “Furong, watch your tone. No one is causing discord on purpose. This is mom’s own decision, and considering Lin Fang’s character, she truly does not deserve to be the wife of our Shangguan family!”

Shangguan Xi, confused, said, “Dad, what exactly happened? What did Auntie Lin do wrong?”

Shangguan Dehui then relayed the incident mentioned by the old lady Shangguan.

“Upon hearing this, the room fell silent.

After a while, Shangguan Xi finally spoke, “Ah… so Aunt Lin is that kind of person… I really didn’t see it coming…”

Lady Shangguan was neither deaf nor blind, and she wouldn’t speak without reason.

“Could it be that mother has misunderstood? Didn’t Lin Fang herself say that there’s been a misunderstanding? Mother really, she didn’t even let Lin Fang explain! How can you be so arbitrary!” Shangguan Furong asserted.

Lin Fang, this sister-in-law, was quite pleasing to Shangguan Fufong’s eyes.

First, her family background was admirable, as was her work.

Secondly, she knew how to get along with people, she knew who were her own and who were outsiders.

People like Xu Lian were outsiders to her.

Shangguan Furong cared a lot about her position in the Shangguan Family, she didn’t want Shangguan Dehui to marry a woman who didn’t regard her highly.

What if that woman was domineering? Then would she not have any say in the Shangguan family?

“Mother is not that kind of person.” Shangguan Dehui added, “Let’s put an end to this matter, I will also explain it to Lin Fang.”

After all, Shangguan Dehui didn’t have any emotional attachment towards Lin Fang.

With such a thing happening, it had rather eased Shangguan Dehui’s mind. At least, old Lady Shangguan wouldn’t hurriedly push him for quite some time.

“Brother, are you just giving up on Lin Fang?” Shangguan Furong wasn’t quite ready to give in.

“Hmm.” Shangguan Dehui simply nodded.

“Dehui, I’m very glad that you see the reality,” Xu Lian walked over from the side, “I’ve been saying that Lin Fang is not a good person.”

Shangguan Furong couldn’t stand Xu Lian’s smug expression at her success.

“Sister Xu Lian, are you happy now?”

“I’m just being honest. Of course, I’m naturally happy to keep Xiaoxu and Xiaoxi away from such a terrible stepmother,” Xu Lian’s family background was not bad either, she was not afraid of Shangguan Furong. She just didn’t bother to quarrel with Shangguan Furong, because she knew Shangguan Furong, as an aunt, truly cared for Shangguan Xu and Shangguan Xi.

Shangguan Furong simply couldn’t stand her, but, since she didn’t live in the Shangguan house, she didn’t need to take it to heart.

The more Shangguan Furong thought about it, the more outraged she felt, “I think Lin Fang is quite suitable to be my sister-in-law, I’ll go upstairs and talk to my mother now!”

Lady Shangguan had this one precious daughter, and usually, she listened to her daughter’s words the most.

…

Beijing is a very inclusive city, and it is home to people from all over the country.

Although it was Wednesday, there was no shortage of people queuing up to apply for passports.

Ni Yang had been in the queue for more than an hour, and there were still about twenty or thirty people in front of her.

Ni Cuihua sat on the bench nearby, holding little Ni Yun in her arms, waiting for her.

“Little girl, what’s the relation between that woman holding the kid and you?” The middle-aged woman in line behind Ni Yang curiously asked her.

“That’s my mother, and the baby she’s holding is my sister.” Ni Yang replied.

The middle-aged woman was startled, then said, “No wonder you guys look so alike! Turns out you’re mother and daughter!”

“Yes.” Ni Yang nodded.

“You’re also going to M Country?” The middle-aged woman continued.

“Yes.”

“I’m also going to M Country!” The middle-aged woman excitedly said, “We’re really destined to meet, my girl, you must be going to M Country to study abroad, aren’t you? I’m going to M Country to visit my son!”

This was the period when studying abroad was becoming popular.

Rich families would choose to send their children to get an “overseas experience” even if studying in a lesser-known college overseas was much better than studying in a famous college at home.

Those were returnees!

Could average college graduates compete with them?

The middle-aged woman saw that Ni Yang was pretty and dressed well, so she guessed that Ni Yang was definitely going abroad to study.

Ni Yang faintly smiled, “We’re not studying abroad.”

“Then what are you guys going abroad for?”

“We’re going abroad for a vacation.” Ni Yang replied softly.
