Chapter 451: Chapter 451: Creating Discord (2)
Ou Chunhua’s lips hooked up imperceptibly at the other party’s last sentence and said, "Money is the most important, isn’t it?"
"Ah, I like this phrase of Mrs. Ou," Yang Zhilin suddenly jumped up from the sofa. "Last time, I wanted to meet Mrs. Ou’s distinguished son. But unfortunately, I met Mr. Xiao first. My heart was totally charmed by him on the spot."
Ou Chunhua continued to smile subtly, "This is nothing but fate."
"Yes, fate. Destined by heaven, he is my man."
By the time the conversation reached this point, it seemed already a done deal.
Yang Zhilin said, "I will have my specific address sent to you."
Xiao Shulan and the others exchanged glances full of sheer joy. No matter what, it seemed that the goddess of victory, Miss Yang of the Yang Family, was already willing to stand on their side.
Lai’an Village
The night in the small mountain village was much quieter than the noise of the big cities.
While Grandma Zhou was cooking, Gu Nuan helped out. Washing vegetables and rinsing rice were all effortless tasks for her.
Seeing how skilled she was, Grandma Zhou commented, "You must often cook at home, a good housewife. Nowadays, fewer and fewer girls know how to cook."
Gu Nuan quietly plucked the rotten leaves from the vegetables, without a word.
Grandma Zhou curiously glanced at her, wondering if she had heard.
Xiao Yebai was responsible for setting the table and arranging the bamboo stools.
Just then, someone came over for a visit. It was Zhou Xiaoyun, who had quarreled with Grandma Zhou at noon, and for some reason, he had come to Grandma Zhou’s place again.
Seeing a stranger in Grandma Zhou’s house, Zhou Xiaoyun, with hands behind his back, was a bit surprised and asked, "Who are you?"
Xiao Yebai’s cool gaze swept over his face without a word.
Zhou Xiaoyun stood his ground, staring hard at him.
This brings us to Gu Nuan buying new clothes and coming home to wash them, only to find they weren’t dry, and Xiao Yebai, who was completely drenched in sweat, insisted on taking a shower. Consequently, Grandma Zhou fetched a set of men’s clothes from somewhere to lend to her guest.
Xiao Yebai was now wearing the clothes borrowed from Grandma Zhou, a blue checkered linen shirt on top and dark blue coarse trousers below. Due to his height, the clothes, especially the trousers, were too short, reaching just above his ankles.
This outfit, obviously mismatched with Xiao Yebai, made him look more like a clown than a villager.
Gu Nuan remembered feeling thunderstruck when she first saw him in these clothes, blurting out, "The Princess and the Pea—"
There was no helping it, this man was born a prince, it was a disservice to his physique if he wasn’t dressed in gold and grandeur.
However, Xiao Yebai didn’t seem to mind at all. In fact, he seemed quite fond of the clothes, turning left and right in front of the dressing mirror at Grandma Zhou’s, looking quite pleased and proud, saying to her, "Don’t you think I instantly became very handsome?"
Crazy, crazy. This man was crazier than a loony monk!
At this moment, Zhou Xiaoyun was staring at the clothes on Xiao Yebai’s body and asked, "Whose clothes are you wearing?"
Could it be that the clothes he was wearing belonged to this old man?
Upon hearing the noise at the door, Grandma Zhou came out and, noticing Zhou Xiaoyun, said, "What are you here for?"
"I was just taking a stroll after dinner. I heard from my grandson that a stranger had come to the village and was staying at your house," Zhou Xiaoyun said, his sharp gaze scanning both Xiao Yebai and Gu Nuan.
That’s to say, the kids in the village are all quite astute, like little monkeys, ready to serve as informants for the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit.
