Rebirth of a Village Girl-Chapter 1033 - 247: What is upbringing?_2

But now, her parents had suddenly changed.

If she had known this would happen, Yan Erju might as well not have picked her up and brought her home in the first place.

Then she wouldn’t have had to suffer like this. Maybe someone better off would have taken her in; then she wouldn’t have met Ni Yang and endured all this pain!

"Yanyun, you are my daughter, and I am your father, so I won’t get angry if you say these things to me. But it’s different with your mom. You’ve been raised by your mom since you were a baby, through all the filth and mess. How would you feel if, as a mother, you heard that the child you’ve raised from birth spoke of you this way? If you were in her shoes, would you be sad? Think about it, has your mom ever treated you badly?"

At this point, Wu Jinshu paused before continuing,

"Your mom didn’t say anything bad, she just doesn’t want to see you regret it later on."

"I won’t regret it! I will never forgive the Ni Family in my life!"

There was no point in further persuasion at this juncture.

Wu Jinshu said, "As long as you don’t regret it, that’s fine. Otherwise, when you grow up and think back on today, you might blame your mom and me for not having advised you."

Wu Yanyun sniffled and remained silent.

Wu Jinshu went on, "Go and apologize to your mom. She’s had a tough time."

"Okay, I understand." Wu Yanyun stood up and walked toward the master bedroom.

Inside the master bedroom, Yan Erju’s emotions had mostly stabilized, but her eyes were still red.

"Mom, I’m sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have spoken to you that way just now."

Yan Erju lifted her head to look at Wu Yanyun, watching her daughter who was gradually growing up, and felt her nose twinge, nearly on the verge of tears again.

Having said this, Wu Yanyun turned and walked towards the door.

Wu Jinshu came in from the side, "Forget it, Erju. Since the child has apologized, let’s not be angry."

Yan Erju choked up and spoke, "I’m not angry..."

The next day, Yan Erju and Wu Jinshu prepared to visit the Ni Family.

Having said those things to them the day before, Wu Yanyun must have said even harsher words to Ni Yang and the rest.

No matter what, they couldn’t let the Ni Family feel disheartened.

Although Wu Yanyun had made it clear that she did not recognize the Ni Family, their attitude remained as cordial as ever.

Ni Cuihua immediately made tea for them.

"Yangyang’s mom, Yangyang, we’ve not raised our child well, and we owe you an apology." Both husband and wife felt extremely guilty.

Ni Yang brought out fruit and placed it on the coffee table. "Godfather, godmother, I know this isn’t your fault. Even though Yanyun refuses to acknowledge us, you two are still my godparents."

This matter didn’t involve Wu Jinshu and Yan Erju.

This couple was truly exceptional.

Wu Jinshu and Yan Erju had never expected Ni Yang to still be willing to call them godparents; they felt a complex mix of emotions.

What does it mean to be well-bred?

Perhaps, this was it.

Although Ni Yang and Wu Yanyun were blood sisters, the difference between them was more than just a little.

"Yangyang, thank you." Yan Erju held Ni Yang’s hand, her nose slightly tingling.

Ni Yang smiled faintly, "Godmother, we should be the ones thanking you for raising Yanyun to adulthood."

The visit to the Ni Family left the couple with many emotions. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Back at home, Wu Jinshu and Yan Erju instructed Wu Dalong and Wu Erlong.

No matter whom they forgot in the future, even if they disrespected their own parents, they must never forget Ni Yang. Ni Yang had shown great kindness to their family.

Wu Dalong and Wu Erlong nodded, "Mom and dad, don’t worry, Erlong and I would never be as heartless as our elder sister!"

Meanwhile, at the Ni Family’s small courtyard.

Shangguan Xi was carrying a bag, rushing indoors.

She was hurrying and failed to notice a banana peel on the ground. Just as she was about to step on it, Ni Yang came from the opposite side and gently kicked it into a nearby trash can.

Shangguan Xi gave a thumbs-up, "Yangyang, you could go play soccer with skills like that."

Ni Yang laughed, "I might just give it a try tomorrow. By the way, Sister Xiaoxi, why are you in such a hurry?"

Shangguan Xi said, "I’m going back home to change clothes. I have things to do later."

"How about I give you a ride on my way out?" offered Ni Yang.

"Sure," Shangguan Xi nodded, "then I’ll go change right now."

Before long, Shangguan Xi came downstairs, changed into a pink down jacket, and had even applied lipstick, looking much prettier than usual.

A fair lady is a gentleman’s good match.

Ni Yang teased, "Sister Xiaoxi is dressed up so beautifully, are you going on a date?"

A blush quietly crept onto Shangguan Xi’s face.

"Are you really going on a date?" Ni Yang asked.

"Uh-huh," Shangguan Xi nodded.

Ni Yang continued, "Is your date with Zuo Ling?"

Shangguan Xi nodded again.

Shangguan had thought that Ni Yang would definitely try to persuade her not to be with Zuo Ling, but Ni Yang didn’t say much. She neatly fastened her seatbelt, started the engine, and drove away.

"Yangyang, aren’t you going to advise me against being with Zuo Ling anymore?"

Ni Yang smiled and looked back, "If I advised you, would you listen?"

Shangguan Xi shook her head.

Ni Yang went on, "Since you wouldn’t listen to me, there’s no use in me saying more! Besides, I’ve always said that a fox will eventually reveal its tail."

Ni Yang now had a better way to make Zuo Ling show his true colors.

There was no use in saying more.

"Zuo Ling is not a fox at all!" Shangguan Xi claimed.

Ni Yang smiled slightly, "Sister Xiaoxi, have you only been in love once?"

Shangguan Xi exclaimed in surprise, "Yangyang, how did you know?"

Zuo Ling was her first love, and she was his.

Ni Yang said, "I can tell. Mainly because you’re too naive, Sister Xiaoxi. Anyone with a bit more experience in love wouldn’t be like you."

Shangguan Xi responded speechlessly, "Yangyang, you’re several years younger than me! You talk as if you’ve been in many relationships."

The car was fast, and it didn’t take long to arrive downtown.

"You can stop here," Shangguan Xi said.

Ni Yang pulled over to the curb.

Shangguan Xi opened the door and waved at Ni Yang, "See you, Yangyang."

Ni Yang followed up, "When will you return tonight, Sister Xiaoxi? I’ll come to pick you up."

Shangguan Xi waved her hand, "No need, I’ll take the bus back."

After separating from Ni Yang, Shangguan Xi arrived at the cafe where she and Zuo Ling had agreed to meet.

By the time she arrived, Zuo Ling was already there.

Zuo Ling was a very attentive person and very conscious of time. He never arrived late for a date, only early.

Shangguan Xi really liked this about him.

"Xiaoxi, you’re here," Zuo Ling said as he immediately stood up from the sofa.

"Have you been waiting long?" Shangguan Xi asked somewhat embarrassedly.

Zuo Ling shook his head, "No, I just got here."

As he spoke, he handed the menu to Shangguan Xi, "Choose whatever you like, Xiaoxi."

Shangguan Xi took the menu, "I’ll have a Caramel Macchiato, what about you?"

"I’ll have the same as you," Zuo Ling said.

In fact, Zuo Ling didn’t really like these kinds of drinks. He was just deliberately accommodating Shangguan Xi to create more common topics of conversation.

Shangguan Xi nodded, "Waiter, two Caramel Macchiatos, please."

"Sure, please wait a moment."

After finishing their coffee, the two went to watch a movie.

While buying tickets, a familiar voice rang out from behind, "Shangguan Xiaosi."

Shangguan Xi glanced back slightly, only to see Wu Chenjun approaching.

"Wu ’Number Three,’ you’re also here to see a movie."

"Sister Xiaoxi, hi." Standing next to Wu Chenjun was a girl about seventeen or eighteen years old, Wu Chenjun’s younger cousin.

"Anan, you’re here too."

Zhou Anan nodded, "I came with my brother."

"Xiaoxi, I’ve got the tickets," Zuo Ling said, coming over from the other side.

"Oh, then let’s go quickly."

Wu Chenjun lifted his chin slightly, "Shangguan Xiaosi, aren’t you going to introduce us to this gentleman?"
