REBIRTH OF A VILLAGE GIRL

Chapter 648: 181: When did you become so close with her? _1

Shangguan Furong was so angry that her whole body was trembling, her left cheek covered by her hand, tears falling like cut strings of pearls.

Shangguan Dehui had hit her, and it was bad enough that the elder Mrs. Shangguan hadn’t defended her, but even worse, she had poured oil on the flames, blaming Shangguan Furong instead!

In her mind, she was only doing all of this for the good of the Shangguan family!

Would she ever even say a word if she didn’t carry the Shangguan name?

Now she has become the villain!

“Do you think I wanted to meddle in everything? Everything I’ve done, I’ve done for the Shangguan family!”

Matriarch Shangguan cast a glance at Shangguan Furong, “I will tell you once again, the affairs of the Shangguan family do not need your intervention!” What was supposed to have been a happy occasion was wrecked into a complete mess by Shangguan Furong.

The atmosphere inside the carriage was heavy with tension.

Once they stepped out of the carriage, Shangguan Xi set out to comfort Shangguan Furong, “Aunt, don’t be angry, my father was too impulsive today, he didn’t mean to hurt you.”

Actually, it was the first time Shangguan Xi had ever seen Shangguan Dehui explode with such anger.

The Shangguan Dehui in his memories has always been gentle and cultured. He had never even erupted in anger in front of others.

That moment had startled even Shangguan Xi.

“Truly, a beautiful face brings disaster!” said Shangguan Furong, “For this, I don’t blame your father! Blame should fall on Daya! If not for her, your father would’ve never treated me like this!”

Since she was a child, Shangguan Dehui had always doted on her. He’d never spoken harshly to her.

Shangguan Xi continued, “Aunt, it’s not Aunt Daya’s fault. I’ve observed her closely, Aunt Daya is a very reasonable person, she…”

Before Shangguan Xi had finished, Shangguan Furong interrupted, “Xiaoxi, by the tone of your voice, am I the one to blame for all this!”

Daya hadn’t even married into the Shangguan family yet, and she was already being treated as an outsider!

If Daya were to marry into the Shangguan family, would her voice not even matter anymore?

“Aunt, that’s not what I meant,” Shangguan Xi chose his words carefully, afraid of upsetting Shangguan Furong if he misspoke, “I think you may be misunderstanding Aunt Daya.”

Shangguan Furong remained silent, her face cold.

Shangguan Xi was still a child, she could let it slide with him!

But she would definitely hold Ni Cuihua accountable for all that had happened.

“So, you also believe Ni Yang need not change her surname?” Shangguan Furong asked.

“Aunt.” Shangguan Xi continued: “Ni Yang is an individual in her own right. She belongs to herself and no one else. Furthermore, she’s of age now, whether she wants to change her surname or not, we can’t force her. It should be her own decision. Besides, Aunt Daya raised her single-handedly since she was little. The Shangguan family has never paid for any of her upbringing. Isn’t it unreasonable to force Ni Yang to change her surname?”

Shangguan Xi, like his father, was known for being reasonable.

“Everyone is siding with her!”

Shangguan Xi said, “Aunt, perhaps you can try putting yourself in their shoes. If it were you, would you be willing to have your daughter, whom you’ve raised painstakingly for eighteen years, change her surname?”

“Xiaoxi, what are you trying to say?” Shangguan Furong was shocked, “Are you cursing your own aunt for the sake of an outsider?”

That was just too much!

Now, it seems no one from the Shangguan family even cared for her anymore!

“No, no,” Shangguan Xi hurried to explain, “Aunt, I was merely making a comparison.”

Shangguan Furong took a deep breath, “Fine! Let’s leave this matter aside for the moment. Let’s talk about Ni Yang’s personal affairs. Everybody is well aware of who Mo Qishen is. Daya is going to marry into the Shangguan family, and if her daughter is with Mo Qishen, wouldn’t that reflect poorly on the Shangguan family?”

Mo Qishen was nothing more than a failure! What qualifications did he have to be a son-in-law of the Shangguan family?

The mere thought of it gave Shangguan Furong a headache!

Shangguan Xi said, “Aunt, I believe we don’t need to meddle in this affair, do we? After all, it’s Ni Yang’s personal business. Freedom of love is granted in today’s society. She can be with whoever she likes.”

Everyone ought to mind their own business.

Meddling too much would only lead to unnecessary troubles.

Shangguan Furong was seething with anger. No one understood her! They made her feel as if she was a nosy person!

“But it is our family’s reputation at stake!”

Shangguan Xi didn’t know how to comfort Shangguan Furong anymore.

Her thoughts were too extreme.

“Aunt,” Shangguan Xi tried to soften his voice, “I think Mo Qishen isn’t as bad as people say. Think about it, if he were truly useless, would he behave so gracefully? I think there is a misunderstanding about him in the outside world.”
