Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Have you taken a liking to her?

Obviously, up until now, no!

He thought that after spending time together, perhaps they might end up like his third brother and sister-in-law.

After the engagement, he did what a son-in-law and fiancé should do.

He helped his mother-in-law’s family with some farm work, brought Yang Xiaocui some food, and even bought her a silver hairpin.

Although he was somewhat unwilling, even a bit repulsed.

Whenever he felt this repulsion, he would silently remind himself that Yang Xiaocui would be his wife in the future, and what he did was proper; other sons-in-law did the same, and that’s how he barely managed to complete these tasks.

While doing these tasks, he also had some contact with Yang Xiaocui.

But unfortunately, during this time, he didn’t come to like Yang Xiaocui; he even started to increasingly dislike her.

He disliked her whining, her submissiveness, her cautiousness, her humility!

His lips curled into a bitter smile, without directly answering Li Chuntao’s question, he simply said, ”Since we’re engaged, I should treat her well!”

Yang Dong’s words left Li Chuntao with a sense of heaviness in her chest, feeling a sort of sting.

His words were undoubtedly spoken by a responsible man, meaning since he promised to marry her, he must be responsible and treat her well.

But that Yang Xiaocui is so devious, she’s not worthy of such a responsible Yang Dong.

Unable to hold back, she said, ”If... I’m just saying if, one day you discover that Yang Xiaocui is not how she appears on the surface, and perhaps she did something that wronged you, what would you do?”

Yang Dong didn’t expect Li Chuntao to ask such a question; could it be that she also noticed something off about Yang Xiaocui?

After all, she lived next to Yang Xiaocui’s house, so it wouldn’t be surprising if she noticed something. Thus, he asked, ”Did you discover anything?”

”No, I’m just speaking hypothetically,” Li Chuntao still couldn’t say it; she didn’t have any evidence yet, it was all her conjecture. If she directly spoke out, Yang Dong wouldn’t believe her, so she could only use a hypothetical scenario to hint at him.

Yang Dong lowered his head without speaking, pondering over Li Chuntao’s question.

Actually, ever since he noticed something on the hill last time, Yang Dong had thought about this. If that’s the case, he wouldn’t need to care about Yang Xiaocui’s well-being; he could openly break off the engagement, and deep inside, he had a glimmer of hope.

Seeing Yang Dong not respond, Li Chuntao continued to press him, ”Would you call off the engagement, or would you forgive her?”

Looking at the inquisitive gaze from Li Chuntao, Yang Dong felt he had said too much today.

He had indeed been careless; Li Chuntao was the girl his third sister-in-law wanted to introduce to him. Whether she knew it or not, he felt he should have avoided suspicion, yet he not only failed to do that, but also conversed with her. The last time at the bookstore, this time again.

He really shouldn’t have!

”Nothing has happened yet, who knows? Let’s wait until it actually happens,” he said.

After finishing this sentence, he flicked the whip and continued to drive the cart.

Seeing Yang Dong like this, Li Chuntao understood his meaning; he didn’t want to continue the topic and didn’t want to continue talking to her.

She knew this matter couldn’t be rushed, so she naturally stopped speaking.
