Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Song Lan held Song Yao’s hand and said, “Actually, I understand everything you’ve told me. Although Little Hu is young, he knows in his heart that although he’s not my biological grandson, he’s been raised by me for so many years and I have grown attached to him. I’m still the same as before.”
“This time, your Brother Sun Nan bumped into Wu Xia in Pengcheng. I even specially told your Brother Sun Nan to remember to help her if there’s anything. After all, she’s been with Sun Hao for so many years.”
Song Yao frowned and felt that her Auntie was too kind.
Just as he was about to say something, he heard a dog barking outside the door.
Right on the heels of that, a sharp female voice sounded from outside the courtyard. “Whose dog is this? How uncultured! Quickly call your master out!”
Song Yao’s face darkened. She didn’t need to think to know who had come to her house.
“If it weren’t for the fact that I was busy visiting my relatives during the New Year, do you really think I would want to come to this lousy place where rabbits don’t shit?! You even said that you would move to a town! This lousy place isn’t much better than the countryside… Even the dogs in the countryside are so uneducated!”
Hearing this, Song Lan’s expression darkened.
“Why is your aunt free to visit your relatives this year?
Song Yao’s expression was ugly. “I heard that I found a partner and wanted to come over to take a look.”
With that, she stood up and went out the door.
Outside the courtyard, Song Yao’s aunt, Gu Fang, was wearing a woolen coat. She was in a sorry state as she pointed at the big yellow dog outside Liu Mu’s house and cursed. Beside her stood her cousin, Chen Huan, and her uncle, Chen Feng.
Wang Hong heard someone scolding her dog in the courtyard and came out of the house to argue with Gu Fang.
“Sister, my dog is on a leash, but it barked twice at the place you passed. You’re already an adult, why are you arguing with a dog?”
“Arguing with a dog? So what if I’m arguing with a dog today! As expected of a country bumpkin with no manners and bad taste! Your dog is disturbing me, do you know that? It’s already good enough that I didn’t look for you to compensate me!”
This was also the first time Wang Hong had seen such a shameless person. She placed her hands on her waist and wanted to quarrel with Gu Fang. “I have no manners? Who is the one with no manners? A country bumpkin? If you look down on country bumpkins, don’t come to the countryside! Why are you so arrogant all day long? Do you believe that I’ll get my son to chase you out of town?”
“You still dare to threaten me, right?” Hearing this, Gu Fang became even angrier and reached out to grab Wang Hong’s hair.
Wang Hong did not give in and pushed her down in a few moves.
By the time Song Yao left the courtyard, Gu Fang had already been pushed against the wall. She gritted her teeth and climbed up from the wall, wanting to scratcha Wang Hong’s face.
Song Yao went up to her. “Aunt, why didn’t you tell me you were coming?”
As soon as she saw Song Yao come out, Gu Fang immediately covered her mouth and nose. “It’s true that rural people have never been to the city. Such harsh conditions are considered the best in your eyes, right?”
Song Yao ignored Gu Fang with a dark expression. She walked to Wang Hong and apologized to her. “Aunt, I’m really sorry. My relative has caused you trouble. I’ll get Xiao to send two catties of brown sugar to you later!”
Unexpectedly, this shrew was actually Song Yao’s relative. Wang Hong smiled and said, “It’s fine! You’re about to get married. It’s only right for a few relatives to visit..
After Wang Hong finished speaking, she glanced at Gu Fang. “It’s my fault. If a dog bites, can a human bite a dog?”
After saying that, she patted Song Yao’s hand. “Alright, happy marriage! There’s no need for brown sugar. When your family is busy in two days, just leave some meatballs for me.”
After Wang Hong finished speaking, she returned to her courtyard. Gu Fang stared at Wang Hong’s departing figure and was even more furious.
“Who are you working with? I’m your aunt! How dare you speak up for an outsider!”
Song Yao’s face was still dark. “Alright! Go in. My mother has been waiting for you for half a day!”
Gu Fang rolled her eyes in Song Yao’s direction and cursed in her heart. Poor thing! If I didn’t have something to ask of you, I wouldn’t have come to this godforsaken place!
Her husband, Chen Feng, followed her into the courtyard.
Song Yao’s small courtyard had been meticulously designed by Song Yao. There was a greenhouse at the side of the courtyard, and it was filled with flowers and plants that Gu Fang could not name. There was an oven in the middle.
As soon as she entered, her cousin, Chen Huan, smelled the pleasant smell of roasted mutton.
“Mom! Why do I smell mutton?”
Chen Huan was puzzled. She remembered her mother saying that her aunt from the countryside was a country bumpkin and poor villager. She usually could not even eat an egg, let alone mutton, which was a good thing that she usually could not eat much..
