The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 92: Chapter 075: The Whole Family Is Top-grade (Part 7)_3

”Hmph, my daughter is so beautiful and smart, and now she can even become an athlete. Whomever she marries would be marrying down, so why give the Yan Family a bargain?”

”And besides, do they really think we can’t see? Their family has never looked up to us, the He Family!”

”A poor soldier, just because he has some connections, and he dares to look down on our Tiantian? Pah, the nerve!”

It had to be said, Liu Xiuzhi really was Tiantian’s real mother. Listening to what she said, it sounded almost exactly like Tiantian herself.

Grandpa He’s eyes widened in surprise. Who was it that just a couple of days ago, was enthusiastically telling the neighbors and fellow villagers, almost praising Yan Xingzhou to the skies?

Since the engagement was settled, who was it that joyously talked about how her daughter would go live in luxury in the city, finally marrying into a good family?

Liu Xiuzhi:...It was me, so what?

I just contradicted myself. What can you do about it?

After all, I am well-known as the shrew of He Family Village. No matter what I do or say, there will always be someone laughing; I’ve been used to being gossiped about for twenty years now!

The big fight with the mother-in-law back then helped Liu Xiuzhi to see things clearly.

As long as she felt her life was good, the opinions of others really didn’t matter.

About saving face, haha, it couldn’t even be compared with the comfort of herself and her family.

Seeing Liu Xiuzhi’s ”I don’t give a damn” attitude, Grandpa He was thoroughly convinced and didn’t dare to bring up anything about the Yan Family again.

As for his once-hoped-for scenario of a shrew disciplining a spoiled child, that was never going to happen in the He Family.

”Ah!” Sighing, Grandpa He walked back to the old house with his head down.

The He Family, however, was all joy.

This was the norm for the He Family; whenever the matriarch Liu Xiuzhi was happy, He Jianguo would also laugh along foolishly.

Both sons would actively participate, the daughters-in-law cooperating quietly.

...Oh what a harmonious and happy family indeed.

The very next morning, Liu Xiuzhi left the house full of pride.

Passing a neighbor who asked, she would joyfully reply, ”Going to the village committee. Ah, our Tiantian is so promising! She’s been noticed by a provincial team coach and selected to become an athlete!”

”Yes, exactly, the kind that could participate in the Olympics, she will even travel by plane to compete abroad!”

”Marry? Ah, our Tiantian is going to be an Olympic champion, bringing glory to the country. Who needs to marry then? Besides, that Yan Family boy truly isn’t good enough for our Tiantian!”

”Our Tiantian is so beautiful, and now she’s an athlete on the provincial team...”

”Yan Family might have good conditions, but our Tiantian isn’t marrying them. The groom isn’t worthy; wouldn’t our Tiantian be too mistreated?”

”...Right, let the village chief give our Tiantian a verification, transfer her household registration, haha, from now on, our Tiantian will be a city person!”

Liu Xiuzhi casually strolled, stopping every now and then, no matter whether she knew the person or whether they asked her first, she would rattle off her news.

Before she even reached the village committee at the head of the village, most of the people in He Family Village knew: the lazy and spoiled daughter of the He Family was going to join the provincial team as an athlete.

With the Asian Games coming up and being held in Capital City, there seemed to be an extra special focus on sports.

For the athletes, the first reaction was one of admiration.

In rural areas, having a family member who was an athlete representing the country was a source of pride for the whole family, even the whole village.

After confirming multiple times that Liu Xiuzhi wasn’t just boasting, and seeing her handling the necessary paperwork with proof from the provincial sports school, the villagers of He Family Village were all abuzz.

”Good heavens, that girl from the He Family really is becoming an athlete?”

”Oh my, I always knew there was something special about the He Family’s girl, just look at her smooth skin, just like a city person!”

”No wonder Liu Xiuzhi is so arrogant now, it turns out her daughter has become successful!”

”Tsk, just the other day she was all over the village bragging about her future son-in-law and his powerful family...”

”Wait, with Tiantian’s lazy attitude, she, she can become an athlete?”

”Ah yes, I asked, she’s not playing ball or running track, not weightlifting, but archery!”

”Archery, as an athlete? I, I’ve even learned archery from my granddad.”

”Psht, you run every day too, I’ve never seen you being selected by the provincial team as a track athlete!”

The villagers of He Family Village gossiped and discussed, some praising, some doubting, and others just watching for the excitement.

Regardless of what the villagers thought, they all knew, the He Family’s daughter truly was successful.

Whether or not she would win a championship in the future, she was set for a great future.

On the third day, under the gaze of the entire village, Tiantian, along with the entire He Family, grandly departed from He Family Village...
