Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 772 Scandals

Xiang Dong came out with an unhappy face as well, glanced at the girls, and sat down beside Chaoyang on the ground.

"Second brother, what’s wrong?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Nothing, just wait, Village Chief Wang will come by soon."

"Oh." Xiang Dong understood Chaoyang the best; the two of them had grown up playing together since childhood, closer than biological brothers.

He also sat down beside Chaoyang, and the two brothers did the same thing, closing their eyes and bowing their heads.

"Li Chaoyang, what’s the meaning of this? We come looking for you and you just do this?"

"Yeah, why don’t you say something?" In fact, Zhao Xiahe was a bit scared, but thinking that Wang Lina was standing up front, she felt much more at ease.

They were cousins; Zhao Xiahe’s mother was Wang Shulin’s sister, while Wang Lina was the daughter of Wang Shulin’s brother.

Privately, both liked the Chaoyang brothers, they asked Wang Shulin during summer, but he said the brothers weren’t mature enough, so the matter was shelved.

But the two girls were unwilling to give up; this year, the brothers came again, and Wang Lina didn’t have any ulterior motives, just wanted to get to know them to be able to interact later.

However, Zhao Xiahe was thinking of two solitary men and women alone in a room; by then, they wouldn’t be able to escape the situation.

So Wang Lina, that foolish girl, was used by Zhao Xiahe.

The brothers still said nothing. When people are sleep-deprived, their brains become sluggish.

Chaoyang was now thinking about what Master Wei said: outside, evil intentions are everywhere, so be careful and cautious.

Wang Lina wasn’t happy. In the village, she was like a flower, and as long as she paid attention to the young men, they were very happy and willing to talk to her.

Chaoyang’s behavior hurt her self-esteem. So she wanted to leave but was held back by Zhao Xiahe.

"Xiao Na, don’t get angry. Have you forgotten why we are here?"

Wang Lina couldn’t hold back her anger, "They don’t pay attention to us; what’s the point of knowing them? You get to know them yourself."

Wang Lina tried to leave but was held by Zhao Xiahe, and the two started tugging at each other.

"Let me go. I don’t want to know them anymore."

"Is there anyone better than them?" Zhao Xiahe whispered in Wang Lina’s ear.

"I don’t care, my uncle is finding someone for me in the city."

Zhao Xiahe saw Wang Lina really getting anxious, but if she really left, what would happen to her? She was of marriageable age, and with no prospects at home, she’d have to marry in the countryside.

If she had to marry in the countryside, she’d pick the best.

But her uncle wasn’t interested in her affairs, so she had to come by herself.

"Xiao Na, just wait for me, will you?"

"No, I’m not willing."

Just as the two girls were pulling at each other, the Red Army, Wang Shulin, and Old Yang came over together.

Old Yang had been talking with Wang Shulin when the Red Army ran over, saying two girls wanted to break into Chaoyang’s tent. Chaoyang invited him over.

Wang Shulin heard this, and the veins on his forehead popped; these troublesome individuals.

When Old Yang heard it was about Chaoyang, he remembered how Xiao Wei had taken care of the two, so he followed along.

Wang Shulin saw his niece and cousin and understood immediately.

It was truly embarrassing, he lost face for Old Wang’s family.

"Stop, get back quickly," Wang Shulin shouted.

The two girls stopped, and Wang Lina let go of Zhao Xiahe’s hand, "Uncle, I was already planning to leave; it’s my cousin stopping me."

Wang Lina said this and left without turning back.

Zhao Xiahe was furious at being spoken to like this in front of so many people, she hated Zhao Lina terribly.

"Uncle."

"Go back," Wang Shulin’s tone was stern.

Zhao Xiahe had no choice but to leave, estimating no opportunity next time.

She was very unwilling; how could it end this way?

The Red Army ran to Chaoyang’s side, "Second brother, big brother?"

Brother Chaoyang and Xiang Dong stood up. "Uncle Wang, shall we go rest?"

"Go ahead, hurry up and sleep."

Wang Shulin felt deep powerlessness. Such misfortune for the family.

The two brothers greeted Old Yang before going inside the tent.

Wang Shulin shook his head and walked back, "Old Yang, what should I say?"

"It’s normal; even if they’re your daughters, it’s something you can’t help."

Wang Shulin sighed, "Old Yang, I’ll find you when I have time."

Wang Shulin angrily went to find his elder sister.

Sister Wang had an especially explosive temper. Seeing her younger brother’s face, she became uncomfortable.

"Shulin, what’s happened?"

"Your daughter doesn’t respect herself, trying to barge into a boy’s tent; quickly find someone to marry her off, or prepare for disgrace."

"Xiahe?"

"Yes."

"She has a crush on that tractor-driving lad; why can’t you handle it as her uncle?"

"How can I handle it? I talked to his parents—they said the boy isn’t grown yet and Xiahe is three years older; how could they agree?

I told you last time, didn’t you know?"

"What? I can’t stop my daughter from having feelings."

"Fine, if you can’t stop her, then let her be; in the future, it’s your Zhao family’s disgrace, and if her reputation spreads, you’ll suffer. She won’t be able to marry.

And don’t count on her visiting us; her issues are her problems, disconnected from our family.

If you’re unhappy, we can cut ties as well. We won’t stand losing face." Wang Shulin left after finishing.

Sister Wang’s relationship with her brothers had always been ordinary, now hearing about cutting ties, she trembled with anger.

She dropped everything and furiously went to find Zhao Xiahe.

After searching for a long time, she finally found her, "Come home with me."

Zhao Xiahe knew her mother’s temper well. Seeing her mother’s expression, she knew she couldn’t avoid a beating today.

She dared not defy her mother, so she lowered her head and followed her home.

Sister Wang grabbed a stick upon entering and aimed it at Zhao Xiahe.

Zhao Xiahe quietly pleaded for mercy, but she didn’t dare to dodge, fearing getting hit harder.

Sister Wang didn’t say a word, just rained down blows with the stick until it broke in her hand, then stopped.

"You’ll agree to marry the one from Tangjiazhuang, whether you want to or not. If you pull any stunts, I’ll break your legs."

"Mom, I’m your daughter; that family isn’t decent."

"You brought this on yourself. If your reputation spreads, even the Tang family won’t want you."

At this moment, the door was banged loudly.

Sister Wang frowned as she opened it, seeing her brothers, sister-in-law, and niece outside.

"What’s going on? Reporting a death?"

"Reporting a death? Your parents died long ago, killed by your anger."
