Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 63: 062: You won’t be able to climb high someday! _1

Translator: 549690339

Suddenly, the room was quiet.

So quiet that only breathing could be heard.

All eyes in the room fell on Ni Yang.

No one expected that Ni Yang would easily grab Ni Dazhu’s hand, let alone that the country girl would say such words.

She was as composed as if she were not a teenager, let alone a recent arrival from the countryside.

“Let go of me!” Dazhu struggled, but Yang’s hand seemed to be an unwavering clamp around his wrist.

If he hadn’t experienced it himself, Ni Dazhu wouldn’t believe that he was less strong than this little girl.

“Let go of your uncle, you child,” Cuihua quickly said as she held her child and walked over to Yang.

Ni Yang gave Ni Cuihua a look, then released his hand.

Ni Dazhu glared at the both of them, pointing to the door and yelled, “Look at the fine daughter you’ve raised! No wonder the Mu family refused to accept you! Get out of my sight, 1 don’t know you!”

Hearing this, Cuihua panicked and quickly pulled on Yang’s arm, “Yangyang, quickly apologize to your uncle. Say sorry.” Then she turned to Dazhu saying, “Brother, she didn’t do it on purpose, she’s still young, don’t mind her…”

Cuihua appeared extremely humble.

Her parents were deceased, and all that was left for her was this brother, Dazhu.

As the saying goes, the eldest brother is as one’s father.

Whatever Dazhu said, whatever he did, it was for her own good. After all, no brother would harm his own sister.

Liu Xiangxiang held Liu Juan’s arm, her gaze filled with disdain, whispered, “Mom, look at her groveling. Do you think she really intends to stay in our house?”

‘Cuihua has no shame. Any reputable person would have turned their backs on Dazhu with such treatment, but she goes on to apologize to him. Villagers stay villagers. She has no backbone, for the sake of staying in their house she has abandoned even her dignity.’

“Don’t worry,” Liu Juan patted Liu Xiangxiang’s thigh, “1 will absolutely not let this pauper stay in our house.”

Liu Xiangxiang nodded, her face full of scornful smile.

“Yang, hurry up and apologize to your uncle!” Seeing Yang says nothing, Cuihua looks like she’s about to cry.

Ni Yang looked down at Ni Cuihua, “Mom, can’t you see? They don’t even want to acknowledge you as a sister, let alone welcome us!”

Upon hearing this, Ni Cuihua quickly interjected, “Yang Yang, don’t talk nonsense!” She then turned to Ni Dazhu and Liu Juan, explaining, “Brother, sister-in-law, that’s not what Yang Yang meant. Please don’t misunderstand…”

Ni Yang had nothing to say.

She never imagined that Cuihua would still not see the true colors of Dazhu’s family, even as things had escalated to this point.

Liu Juan stepped forwards with a smile.

“Since we’re talking about this now, 1 have to clarify something. Cuiahua, you and Dazhu aren’t real siblings. You don’t share any blood relationship. You’re just an orphan who Dazhu’s dad picked up. If you really are his sister, why wouldn’t we welcome you? But you are not! And now Dazhu has married into the Liu family, he has even less to do with you. If you have any shame, you should leave our house. Go, before we call the police and things get ugly.”

Liu Juan’s words were hit like a thunderbolt on a clear day, striking right at Ni Cuihua. Cuihua just stood there, unable to react for a long time.

Ni Yang was taken aback as well. She never expected that her mother and Ni Dazhu did not share any blood relation…

No wonder Ni Dazhu was such a despicable man, while Cuihua had no trace of deceit.

Plus, they did not share any noticeable resemblance.

After learning this, Ni Yang inexplicably felt relieved.

It took a moment for Ni Cuihua to look up at Ni Dazhu, and then, disbelief colored her tone. “Brother…”

Ni Dazhu’s expression gradually went calm. “Liu Juan is right, I’m not your brother, you’re nothing but an unwanted wild child. Leave now and don’t come back pretending to be family!”

“Brother…” Ni Cuihua was reluctant to accept this reality and stared at Ni Dazhu.

“I told you, I’m not your brother! When will you get it?” Ni Dazhu glared at Ni Cuihua. “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re planning. You think you can free-load off my family? Dream on!”

Ni Cuihua clung onto Ni Dazhu’s arm, weeping. “Brother, tell me this isn’t true. You’re my brother, right? You’re my brother…”

Ni Dazhu pushed Ni Cuihua away roughly. “Have you no shame? How could you still insist on this after what I’ve said? Can’t you understand?”

The sound of their quarrel drew a lot of attention, soon, a crowd surrounded them.

“What’s going on?”

“Who knows? We just got here.”

No matter the era, there will always be rubbernecks.

Seizing the moment, Liu Juan shouted loudly. “Look at her, have you ever seen such a shameless person? Our Dazhu is an only child, his parents died long ago! He doesn’t even have a sister. This woman is trying to exploit Dazhu because they grew up in the same village. Now that Dazhu has a job and is making money, she’s claiming to be his relative! We can’t even get her to leave!”

“Yeah, I thought it was strange too. Dazhu is an only child, yet this woman insists she is his sister. So she’s a con artist…”

“I was thinking about it too. She doesn’t look like Dazhu at all…”

“My God! How can there be such a shameless person in the world!”

Listening to the murmurs around her, Ni Yang looked at Ni Dazhu and Liu Juan, her red lips parted slightly as she said word by word:

“Remember this, you look down on me now, but one day you won’t be able to reach me.”

Although her tone was calm, it was imbued with an inexplicable power that resonated deeply.

The crowd looked at each other, their eyes reflecting shock. Though she was just a young girl, she gave off an inexplicable pressure.

With that, Ni Yang held her little sister in one hand and pulled Ni Cuihua with the other. “Mom, let’s go!”

Ni Cuihua followed behind Ni Yang, dazed and lost.

Liu Juan laughed at Ni Yang’s retreating figure, sneering, “A country bumpkin talking big, aren’t you afraid of spraining your waist? If you’re really that capable, why did you have to beg us today? You’re embarrassing yourself!”

Liu Xiangxiang also giggled, “Exactly, if she’s so capable, why did she even come beg us today? ‘Too high to reach’, huh? She really thinks she’s something else, disgusting!”

What would a country bumpkin like Ni Yang be capable of? Maybe she’d only end up cleaning streets in the city!

Maybe she would not even qualify for that!

The lower class will always be the lower class.

Ni Yang led Ni Cuihua and her little sister out of the workers’ compound. All the way, Ni Cuihua seemed to have lost her soul, Ni Dazhu’s icy words echoing in her ears.

She was thirty-six and had just heard about her past from her brother’s mouth. For a moment, it was hard to digest this information.

Was she really adopted?

Where are her biological parents now?
