This feels so cool and refreshing when applied, so comfortable!\" Zhao Yu happily squinted her eyes in comfort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After applying the essential oil, Zhao Yu jumped off the bed and began rummaging through her small leather suitcase for clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom, which piece of clothing do you think will look nicer on me for tomorrow?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ni Yang turned her head to glance at her, seriously contemplating the clothes in the suitcase, then said, \"This pair of denim overalls is pretty good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Yu had a lively personality and her looks tended toward the sweet and cute style, suiting her for more playful attire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I’ll go with this pair of denim overalls!\" Zhao Yu took out the denim overalls separately and then added, \"Mom, what are you going to wear tomorrow?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ni Yang replied with a smile, \"Anything I wear will be fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ni Yang’s wardrobe, apart from white T-shirts and jeans, was pretty much the same, either cheongsams or retro shirts with crossed collars, so there wasn’t much to choose from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, after breakfast, Ni Yang took Zhao Yu to visit Grandfather Du and Du Jiaojiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Ni Yang didn’t own a car in Shanghai, they had to take a taxi there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, please take us to the Du Residence on Chang’an Road.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, the driver glanced at Ni Yang, an unusual look crossing his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What sort of place was the Du Residence on Chang’an Road?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it somewhere ordinary people could go?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have thought that this young girl was related to that master!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The driver swallowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a short while, the car stopped at the roadside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ni Yang asked with confusion, \"Master, aren’t we going any further ahead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The driver explained, \"We can’t drive into that area ahead. Miss, just walk over there, and after turning a corner, you will see the Du Residence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Grandfather Du’s turf; no way they could enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And to think this young lady didn’t even know that, what was her relationship with Grandfather Du?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was she here to do odd jobs for the Du Family?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright,\" Ni Yang nodded, and then asked, \"Master, how much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The driver responded, \"One yuan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ni Yang handed him one yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the driver left, Zhao Yu looked around; aside from the gigantic plane trees that obscured the sky and the highway, there was no sign of human habitation, not much different from the suburbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was Grandfather Du really doing so poorly in Shanghai?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom, Grandfather Du lives in a place like this?\" Zhao Yu said with some disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ni Yang didn’t know Grandfather Du in her past life, and she didn’t know where he lived, \"Let’s walk ahead and see; the driver master probably wouldn’t deceive us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh.\" Zhao Yu nodded and took Ni Yang’s arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking a few hundred meters and turning a corner, they indeed saw a building hidden beneath the plane trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a very quaint mansion with tiered terraces and intricate carvings, which seemingly transported one back to times long past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To preserve such an ancient mansion through wars and historical changes was no feat for an ordinary power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My goodness! Is this Grandfather Du’s home?\" Zhao Yu exclaimed in amazement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ni Yang said with a smile, \"Didn’t you just disdain the place where he lived?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Yu said embarrassedly, \"Hehe, I take back what I said just now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s hurry over and knock on the door,\" Zhao Yu said with eagerness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"May I ask for your surnames, ladies, and whom you are looking for?\" The man who opened the door was a very kind-looking old man, who also served as the old butler of the Du Residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Traditionally, anyone who came to ask to see Grandfather Du was simply turned away at the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandfather Du wasn’t someone just anyone could meet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But ever since Grandfather Du returned from Beijing, this tradition had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He specifically instructed the gatekeeper and the old butler that if anyone came to ask for a meeting in the future, they must inquire about the visitor’s surname. Only after he had reviewed it could the gatekeeper turn the guests away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Yu promptly said, \"My surname is Zhao, and this is my mom; her surname is Ni. We’re here to see Grandfather Du!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old butler frowned, \"Ah? What young lady? I didn’t hear clearly, who did you say she is? Your sister?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No!\" Zhao Yu quickly waved her hands and raised her voice, \"She is my mom!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your mom?\" The old butler’s eyes widened, he looked at Ni Yang, and then at Zhao Yu, muttering softly, \"Doesn’t look like it at all! I don’t see how the mother looks younger than the daughter? Could it be my old eyes going bad? Ah, I’m getting old and can’t even see people clearly anymore!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",852,"2026-06-05T19:00:30.386Z",1,"novelbin.me","ac2824c82bb12258264973a4cd28687b03bad4111e0526ceafc7db13a72ed690","rebirth-of-a-village-girl-chapter-1171","rebirth-of-a-village-girl-chapter-1169",1410,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-of-a-village-girl-cover.jpg"]
