The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 2278: Chapter 2278: Why Change (24)

”It’s good if you really changed.” Yang Peili sighed, holding a bowl of wontons, and went into the inner room to eat.

”Grandpa, you have to believe me.” Yang Ruban shouted at Yang Peili’s back, ”If I didn’t want to change, I wouldn’t shamelessly come to ask cousin for help, would I?”

”Yang Ruban, stop dragging everyone into this. My decisions aren’t influenced by others. What I want to tell you is that there’s a saying, ’A leopard cannot change its spots.’” Yang Ruxin slowly sipped her soup. It was warm and comforting.

”No way, my nature has changed.” Yang Ruban hurriedly raised his hand to gesture, unconsciously swallowing, ”Really, if you don’t believe big brother, you can ask Young Master Qin.”

”Young Master Qin?”

”It’s Qin Shou.”

”You know him?” Yang Ruxin raised an eyebrow slightly, ”Then tell me first, why do you want to change?”

Yang Ruban scratched his head: ”If I don’t change, I might not have food to eat in the future, let alone find a wife.”

”What do you mean by that? Your change leaves me baffled.”

Yang Ruban looked a bit embarrassed at the surrounding people but knew that if he didn’t speak up now, he might not have another chance, so he smacked his lips: ”Can I at least have a sip of soup first?”

Dong Wenxiu wanted to hand over her bowl after hearing this, thinking it was normal for the child to be hungry on such a cold day.

”Eat after you finish talking, or I won’t listen.” Yang Ruxin didn’t even lift an eyelid.

Yang Ruban quickly withdrew his hand that was reaching for the bowl: ”Cousin, I’ll just be honest.”

”I will listen honestly too.” Yang Ruxin looked up.

”Before, aunt was too weak. When bullied, she only knew how to cry, so everyone was willing to bully you all.” Yang Ruban sniffed, ”Grandma said you were nothing but cheap people, especially aunt, who was only worth anything if she was beaten, just fit for labor.”

Dong Wenxiu shivered, the unbearable memories suddenly rushing back.

Yang Ruxin narrowed her eyes slightly and reached out to hold Dong Wenxiu’s hand.

Dong Wenxiu stiffened but slowly calmed down.

”However, who knew cousin was so capable?” Yang Ruban clicked his tongue twice, ”I guess she got bullied so badly that she started to resist. Look, how formidable is our grandma? She was unbeaten throughout the village, yet she ended up defeated by you and died early...” Not to mention his second sister Yang Ruyu, but there was no need to bring her up.

”What kind of talk is that?” Yang Rusong’s face darkened.

Yang Ruban shrunk his neck: ”Big brother, I’m just telling the truth. Grandma did die, didn’t she? Isn’t she lying there?”

Yang Ruxin’s mouth twitched, but she shook her head at Yang Rusong: ”Let him speak.”

”And Aunt, she used to be so arrogant, but when she met you, cousin, she turned into a fool.” Yang Ruban was more pleased, sliding his seat closer to Yang Ruxin, ”And... never mind, let’s not talk about others. Then there’s Young Master Qin, and that Young Master Hao who is quite close to him. They used to be the overlords of the county, but he said you can handle them as easily as stepping on ants...”

Yang Ruxin touched her nose; does this mean her notorious reputation was well-known far and wide?

”Anyway, anyone who opposes you ends up badly.” Yang Ruban shrugged, ”But those who are good to you, they live in comfort.”
