Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 769: Chapter 463: Coming to the Door / Great Grandpa Is Sick

Wang Shuan came out of the house, and saw Ma Liang’s parents stretching their necks to look at the intersection with a very satisfied smile on their faces. He was curious and looked over — the intersection was empty, nothing was there.

”Uncle, Aunt, what are you looking at?”

Ma Liang’s father smiled at him: ”Shuanzi, why are you up so early today?”

Wang Shuan was not pleased: ”Uncle, you’re underestimating me. I’ve been quite diligent lately. Aunt, what exactly are you looking at? Has something new happened?”

”Xiao Xiao wasn’t lying, the Secretary’s daughter drove over to see her.” Ma Liang’s mother said proudly, ”There she is, along with Liangzi, taking the Secretary’s daughter’s car back to her family.”

”Which Secretary?” Wang Shuan didn’t react for a moment, puzzled.

”Of course, it’s the Secretary of the Municipal Committee. When Liangzi and Xiao Xiao got married, everyone laughed at Xiao Xiao for lying, but what the kid said was true, the Secretary’s daughter agreed to come.

The Secretary’s daughter came today just to apologize, saying she was closed-off and couldn’t come at the time. Today she specifically came to see Xiao Xiao...”

”You said it wrong, it’s ’closed-off,’ how can you say ’closed-up’?” Ma Liang’s father interrupted Ma Liang’s mother, correcting her inappropriate word usage.

Ma Liang’s mother retorted: ”Isn’t it all the same, anyway, it means being locked away and unable to come out.”

”How can it be the same? ’Closed-up’ is being locked, ’closed-off’ is being sealed.”

”Based on what you said, it should be ’closed-up,’ people can be locked up, how can they be sealed? Do you think it’s winter cabbage that can be sealed in a cellar?”

”You old lady don’t understand anything, just stubbornly argue. I’ll check the dictionary later to see who’s right. Hm, where’s Shuanzi?”

Ma Liang’s mother looked around: ”He went back inside?”

”Let’s go, check the dictionary. Our Xiao Xiao is on good terms with the Secretary’s daughter; we must not embarrass the kid. Once we understand, we shouldn’t speak nonsense in the future.”

Ma Liang’s mother pouted: ”Old man, I think you’d better go to the Western School and attend first grade, when you graduate, you can even teach your grandson.”

”You old lady talk too much. I’m just studying hard, improving myself every day.”

”...” Ma Liang’s mother was silent for a long time, then sighed: ”Old man, you’re becoming more like Xiao Xiao.”

”So what if I’m like Xiao Xiao? Xiao Xiao is on good terms with the Secretary’s daughter; those weirdos can’t compare to her. The Secretary’s daughter doesn’t care for them.” Ma Liang’s father hummed a little tune and walked home with satisfaction.

”This old man.” Ma Liang’s mother shook her head and followed him. But then she heard the sound of a door opening nearby, habitually looked over, and saw Wang Shuan with his hair slicked back, wearing a white suit, a red tie, humming a tune, as he locked the door.

Ma Liang’s mother’s eyes widened: ”Shuanzi, what are you up to?”

”Going to meet the Secretary.” Wang Shuan ran his hands over his neat hair and looked at Ma Liang’s mother, ”Aunt, your nephew’s luck has turned.”

...

Aunt Luo’s house.

”You damn girl, tell me, whose is it really?” Aunt Luo pointed at her daughter’s head, full of anger. She couldn’t have imagined that her daughter would become pregnant right under her nose.

Qian Xiaotian constantly wiped her tears but was resolute in not saying anything.

Back then, she might have agreed to marry the father, but just now, Luo Ping’s son-in-law arrived, and with just one look, she fell for him.

Now that’s a man — got presence, looks, and arrived in a car. If she ended up with someone like Wang Shuan, she could forget about living such a life.

But unluckily, as she thought of getting closer, the lump in her belly wouldn’t allow it, making her vomit non-stop. Aunt Luo, already suspicious, now had her doubts confirmed, brought her home for questioning.

Aunt Luo suppressed her anger and softened her voice: ”Xiao Tian, no matter who it is, Mom will handle it. If he dares not admit it, see if Mom doesn’t tear his house down!”

Qian Xiaotian sniffled: ”Mom, no matter whose it is, I won’t marry. I want to find an official son-in-law. Why is Luo Ping better than me? Why does she have everything and I suffer?”

”Pingping studies until two at night, what are you doing? From childhood to now, Mom asked you to study hard, have you listened?

Sure, you’re prettier than Pingping, but beauty lasts how many years? When men look for women, mere beauty isn’t enough.

You tell me, besides liking stars and makeup, what else do you like? If an official man takes you out, it’s not called showing off face, it’s called losing face, understand?”
