Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

”I’m serious, I don’t think such a big deal can be achieved just by acting cute.”

Hearing this, Yang Ming couldn’t help but find his wife adorable. Are you sure you acted cute back then? You clearly contradicted Grandma.

But Yang Ming just thought this and didn’t say it out loud. Instead, he said, ”Grandma is indeed quite open-minded.”

”How so?” Xiaoxiao felt that Yang Ming’s words had an underlying meaning, so she asked.

”Why was I able to study back then? When we hadn’t split from the family, our household wasn’t wealthy, and Uncle and the others all had kids. Fifth Uncle was also studying, so why was it me who got to study?”

Hearing this, Xiaoxiao was a bit stunned. Indeed, there were many boys older and younger than Yang Ming in the family. Why was Yang Ming the chosen one?

Moreover, as far as she knew, the old lady wasn’t particularly nice to her in-laws.

In some families, they favor one son, and that son’s kids also get favored.

But clearly, her in-laws weren’t the favored ones. ”Why?”

”Grandma picked me. She saw that I was smarter.”

”...” Ha ha, ha ha, Xiaoxiao didn’t expect her husband to be so narcissistic!

”Don’t mind Grandpa like that; he was misled by others. But he really wanted someone in the family to bring honor, so he let Fifth Uncle study. But by then, Fifth Uncle was already at the age to marry and still hadn’t passed the Scholar exam. Grandpa was getting anxious, so Grandma suggested I go study. That’s how I replaced Fifth Uncle. Because of this, I always felt guilty toward him.”

At this point, Yang Ming’s voice was filled with guilt.

Xiaoxiao comforted him, ”Don’t think too much about it. Fifth Uncle is doing pretty well now.”

Indeed, life’s good for him. He has a son and is now teaching children at Wang Xiangxiang’s place. Life isn’t bad at all.

Fifth Uncle, with his scholarly air, truly suits his current life.

The next morning, the family warmly sent Wang Kui off.

As soon as Wang Kui left, some sharp-eyed villagers came over to Yang Ming’s mother and asked, ”Second Sister-in-law, who was that man? A relative of yours?”

”What relative? Xiaoqiu brought home a husband. On the 28th of this month, Xiaoqiu will get married. You all come and celebrate, okay? I need to go back and prep for Xiaoqiu’s wedding, so I can’t chat. In a few days, I’ll take the kids around to invite you all.”

Yang Ming’s mother said with a smile. Her daughter’s marriage was finally settled, and she felt genuinely happy and proud.

Yang’s father also exchanged a few greetings with the villagers, then returned to the courtyard with the family.

The remaining villagers were left a bit stunned.

”I never thought they actually found a husband for Yang Qiu.”

”From what Yang Qiu’s dad said earlier, the husband is Wang Kui, right?”

”Yes, yes, that’s what he said.”

”Oh my, that guy who was just here, he’s so tall and strong. Looks like someone not to be messed with.”

”Yeah, this time the Yang Family is really going to have someone impressive. Not to be trifled with anymore.”

”As if they were easy to deal with before.”

”Hahaha, that’s true.”

”Now no one can have any ideas about Yang Qiu. It’s over for them.”

”...”

”...”

The crowd sighed, felt a hint of regret, and gossiped. In just a short time, the news about Yang Qiu’s upcoming marriage had spread.
