Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Hearing Wang Dashan say that even Niu Linxin was better than Zhang Ruoshui, Wang Xiaohua knew this topic couldn't be continued.

He didn't understand Wang Dashan, and Wang Dashan didn't understand him either.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I didn't say I was choosing Zhang Ruoshui either. We'll see later. We've only just gotten along, and I'm not in a rush to force things."

In the end, Wang Xiaohua said this one sentence, putting an end to the topic.

Then the two of them went back together.

At this time, Zhang Ruoshui walked over and said to Wang Xiaohua:

"Xiao Hua, since you're going back to your hometown in a bit, how about taking that little kitten we just bought back to your hometown to stay for the night? I'll bring it down to Guangzhou together with me tomorrow morning."

Wang Xiaohua said:

"Up to you. I'll say the same thing as before: since you bought it, you have to raise it well. Don't abandon it."

Zhang Ruoshui nodded:

"I'll definitely raise it well!"

Although Zhang Ruoshui was stupid, she also knew.

What she was raising wasn't just this little kitten, but also the relationship between her and Wang Xiaohua.

She also knew Wang Xiaohua's feelings toward her were very faint, but she still wanted to try hard to fight for it.

She knew she was very clumsy, but she was sincere!

As for Wang Xiaohua — lacking height, lacking looks — why would she fancy him?

Perhaps everyone's taste is different!

She just wanted to find a smart one; as for height and appearance, those were secondary!

A Tsinghua graduate — honestly, in her circle, the only one she could get in touch with was Wang Xiaohua alone!

So she had to try hard to fight for him!

In the blink of an eye, things were packed up, and the vehicles set off again, departing from the Shangang Town Government heading for Shanggou Village.

By the time they returned to Shanggou Village, it was already 5:30 in the afternoon.

Li Xiulan was busy cooking rice and dishes. The hometown had long since run out of rice and vegetables, but on the way back, they had bought some at the supermarket in the County Town.

Du Xiaojuan brought Zhang Ruoshui along to help with the cleaning.

Wang Xiaohua was also helping with the cleaning.

Wang Dashan was in the courtyard accompanying Wang Dujin playing.

This house that had been unoccupied for a long time once again had the atmosphere of daily life.

After the cleaning was finished, night had already fallen.

Li Xiulan had also finished cooking the rice and dishes.

She brought out a full table of fragrant, delicious dishes.

A whole family of people, eating lively and bustlingly.

Wang Dujin held a large chicken leg, gnawing on it, laughing heartily.

Li Xiulan also served Zhang Ruoshui a large chicken leg:

"Ruoshui, come, eat! Treat it as your own home, don't be polite!"

Zhang Ruoshui hurriedly said:

"Thank you, Auntie. I can serve myself dishes just fine!"

Li Xiulan asked with a smile:

"Ruoshui, when do you plan to get the marriage certificate with Xiao Hua?"

Zhang Ruoshui's face flushed red, her voice as thin as a mosquito's buzz:

"This, this depends on Xiao Hua……"

She glanced at Wang Xiaohua.

Wang Xiaohua hurriedly said:

"Mom, let's not bring this up yet. It's still very early!"

Wang Xiaohua was powerless to retort. How far had things gone? He and Zhang Ruoshui weren't even familiar with each other yet! And they were already bringing up getting the marriage certificate at this point!

Li Xiulan, however, hurriedly said:

"It's not early. Time passes fast. In the blink of an eye you'll be thirty. Once you're past thirty, if you want to find someone, it'll be hard!"

Wang Xiaohua didn't know what to say. He knew Li Xiulan meant well.

Li Xiulan said again:

"If you ask me, Ruoshui's pretty good too. Look at her — a city girl, coming alone to our Shanggou Village. How much courage does that take? And she doesn't even look down on our remote mountain gully! This afternoon she was so diligent cleaning! A girl like this would make the best daughter-in-law!"

Zhang Ruoshui was praised by Li Xiulan until she felt a bit embarrassed.

Face red, head lowered, gnawing on the chicken leg.

But in her heart, she was sweetly delighted.

She felt that the chicken leg she ate tonight was the most delicious chicken leg she had eaten in her entire life so far.

At this moment, Wang Dashan chimed in with a line:

"Mom, you think any woman is good. Before, you even introduced Li Yuncui to Third Brother! What kind of goods is Li Yuncui?"

Zhang Ruoshui lowered her head and glanced at Wang Dashan, feeling that this older brother of Wang Xiaohua was full of hostility toward her, making her involuntarily shrink back, not daring to say a single sentence.

Li Xiulan, however, said:

"What about Yun Cui? Let me tell you, Yun Cui is also a good girl! She was just deceived by a bad man! Before, Yun Cui and Xiao Hua were deskmates, she treated Xiao Hua very well!"

To this day, she does not think there was anything wrong with her matchmaking Wang Xiaohua and Li Yuncui.

Speaking of this, she even sighed:

"Alas, Yun Cui is also a pitiable child. If she and Xiao Hua had gotten together back then, there wouldn't have been those messy, melodramatic bad things afterward!"

Wang Xiaohua listened to these words and didn't know what to say.

Although it's said the dead are to be respected, those messy, melodramatic bad things — weren't they brought on by Li Yuncui herself? And they have absolutely nothing to do with whether she was with Wang Xiaohua or not, right?

Du Xiaojuan interjected at this moment:

"Mom, you say that Li Yuncui is a good girl, I cannot agree. She caused Dashan's cousin's family to suffer terribly. But you say Ruoshui is a good girl, then I raise both hands in agreement!"

Du Xiaojuan said to Wang Xiaohua:

"Xiao Hua, don't look at how Ruoshui is always a beat slow in doing things, but every single thing she does, she does very seriously, very responsibly! And she humbly listens to others' guidance, striving to do her best! Just this attitude, not everyone has it. Especially some self-righteous big stubborn donkeys, they definitely don't have this virtue!"

Wang Dashan immediately heard that Du Xiaojuan was taking a dig at him, so his face was full of speechlessness:

"You talk about others, just talk about others, why drag me into it?"

Du Xiaojuan, however, denied it:

"I didn't say you. Don't you go projecting onto yourself. Did you say you are a big stubborn donkey?"

Wang Dashan gave his answer without a moment's hesitation:

"I am not a big stubborn donkey!"

Du Xiaojuan asked him at this moment:

"Do you know what the biggest characteristic of a big stubborn donkey is?"

"What is it?"

Du Xiaojuan first picked up a piece of meat for Wang Dashan with her chopsticks, then answered with a smile:

"The biggest characteristic of a big stubborn donkey is that they would be beaten to death before they'd admit they are a big stubborn donkey!"

Wang Dashan heard this, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.

For a moment, he had no words to reply.

But speaking of it, Du Xiaojuan's words really do have a bit of principle.

If a big stubborn donkey admitted they were a big stubborn donkey, then they wouldn't be a big stubborn donkey anymore.

Wang Dashan was spoken of like this by Du Xiaojuan in front of so many people, his face had no light, so he was incomparably depressed.

Du Xiaojuan hurriedly changed the subject at this time:

"I plan to start a business again after a period of time. Wang Dashan, this time will you start from zero together with me?"

Wang Dashan coldly humphed:

"Count you as still having a bit of conscience, knowing to pull me in!"

Du Xiaojuan said with a smile:

"I've always had a conscience, okay? If I had no conscience, I would have kicked you away long ago!"

Wang Dashan was once again left with no words to reply.

Du Xiaojuan looked at Zhang Ruoshui at this moment:

"Ruoshui, when I start my business, I'll pull you over to work together. At that time, you must not refuse, hear?"

Zhang Ruoshui immediately showed a face full of joy:

"General Manager Du, really? That would be great!"

Du Xiaojuan said with a smile:

"What General Manager Du? Call me Eldest Sister-in-law!"

"But, Xiao Hua he..."

"Then just call me Sister Juan first. Don't be so polite!"

"Okay, Sister Juan!"
