Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 1245: 305: So angry that my face is distorted_5

"Then I’ll wear this set."

The next morning, Cao Xiaomei dressed up carefully and sat in the living room waiting for Shangguan Xi.

As soon as Shangguan Xi came downstairs, Cao Xiaomei walked over and hugged her arm, "Sister-in-law, you’re up."

Shangguan Xi sized up Cao Xiaomei with a glance and said with a smile, "Xiaomei, you look quite pretty with makeup on."

Cao Xiaomei said, "After all, I’m going to my sister-in-law’s home. Of course, I have to dress myself up prettily. I can’t afford to embarrass you."

Although Cao Xiaomei doesn’t have a high education, she is very smart. She understands women’s hearts very well and knows how to appeal to their preferences.

During this time, she had successfully coaxed Shangguan Xi into submission.

Otherwise, how could Shangguan Xi possibly agree to bring her back home?

However, it’s also because Shangguan Xi is too naive.

If she was a bit smarter, she wouldn’t have been deceived by her.

How could such a simpleton be worthy of Wu Chenjun?

Having said that, Cao Xiaomei continued, "By the way, where’s Brother Chen Jun? Is he still mad at me about last time?"

"No," Shangguan Xi shook her head, "Your Brother Chen Jun isn’t someone who is petty."

"That’s a relief." Cao Xiaomei breathed a sigh of relief, "So when do we leave?"

Shangguan Xi said, "Let’s wait a little longer."

This was the second time Cao Xiaomei got into Wu Chenjun’s car, and she was confident that one day she would be able to sit in the passenger seat next to Wu Chenjun.

Shangguan Xi won’t be proud for many more days.

Since the moment Cao Xiaomei got into the car, Wu Chenjun’s brows never relaxed.

He really detests Cao Xiaomei.

He always feels that Cao Xiaomei is not from a decent family.

But it seems Shangguan Xi gets along quite well with her, so he could only endure it.

Lately, Shangguan Xi has been unusually sleepy for some reason; she dozed off against the car seat shortly after getting in the car.

Wu Chenjun, with one hand on the steering wheel, reached out with the other hand to touch Shangguan Xi’s head, "Shangguan Xiaosi, are you feeling unwell? Are you cold? Should I turn up the heat?"

"No need." Shangguan Xi yawned, "I’m just a bit sleepy, I’ll be fine after a nap."

Wu Chenjun said with concern, "If you’re feeling unwell, make sure to tell me."

"I know." Shangguan Xi said with a smile, "I’m not a three-year-old child anymore, do you need to remind me?"

Sitting in the back seat, Cao Xiaomei felt incredibly upset watching this scene.

Wu Chenjun was supposed to be hers!

If not for Shangguan Xi, she would have been the one he was fussing over now.

The car soon arrived at Jinghua Village.

Ni Cuihua never expected Shangguan Xi to actually come back to celebrate her birthday and couldn’t stop smiling broadly, "It’s just a birthday, and yet you and Chen Jun made the trip."

"You’re my mom, so of course Chen Jun and I should come back for your birthday!"

Only then did Ni Cuihua notice Cao Xiaomei standing next to Shangguan Xi, "And who is this?"

Shangguan Xi said, "This is Cao Xiaomei, a relative from Brother Chen Jun’s grandmother’s side. Xiaomei, this is my mom."

"Auntie, hello." Cao Xiaomei greeted her politely.

"So it’s a relative from the old lady’s side, please come in, come in."

Zhao Yu came bouncing out of the house excitedly, "Grandma! We have guests at home!"

"Duoduo." Shangguan Xi greeted Zhao Yu with a smile.

"Auntie Xiaoxi!" Zhao Yu rushed over and hugged Shangguan Xi tightly.

"Sister Xiaoxi!" Little Ni Yun followed like a little tail, running out after her.

Cao Xiaomei found it a bit strange. Zhao Yu looked about her age, so why would she be Shangguan Xi’s niece?

Could Shangguan Xi’s stepmother really have a forty-year-old daughter?

Shangguan Xi went on to introduce Cao Xiaomei to Zhao Yu and the others.

Inside the house, Grandmother Shangguan, Grandmother Zheng, and Luona, the three old ladies, were playing ’Fight the Landlord’ together.

Cao Xiaomei was a bit surprised.

She knew Shangguan Xi’s family was not simple, but she didn’t expect to see a foreigner in Shangguan Xi’s home.

Scanning the room and not finding Ni Yang, Shangguan Xi felt something was odd, "Mom, why don’t I see Yangyang?"

Ni Cuihua said, "Your Uncle Zhou went to work, and Yangyang went with your Aunt Ni to get Yuanyuan vaccinated for measles."

Getting vaccinated was a hassle, and one person couldn’t handle it alone. Fortunately, Ni Yang understood medicine so she went with Ni Chengui.

Shangguan Xi nodded, "Oh, that’s why I didn’t see Yangyang."

After a while, the sound of a car engine sounded outside again.

"Who is it?" Zhao Yu tiptoed to look out the window, seeing a familiar car, she excitedly said, "It’s my dad! My dad’s here!"
