Chapter 10

Also, this cousin used to trust her the most and would do whatever she said, so why does she distrust her so much now?

Gu Zhenxi was full of anger, but he still wanted to take Bai Ruanruan upstairs. Bai Ruanruan also took the opportunity to look at the layout of her aunt’s house.

My aunt’s family moved last month and has only been here for a little over half a month. Bai Runrun has only come here once, on the day they moved.

Today is only my second time here.

Bai Ruanruan familiarized herself with the layout and prepared for her next move.

Then I saw my cousin walk to the door of a small room.

“This room contains our family’s valuables, so please don’t go in. If something gets lost, I won’t be able to take responsibility.”

Gu Zhenxi opened the door, walked in carefully, then found her jewelry box and picked out the things she had taken last time.

Bai Runrun just smiled and stood at the door looking inside. The room was very small and was filled with the more valuable things of the Gu family.

but……

Bai Ruanruan squinted her eyes and saw several familiar objects.

If she remembered correctly, these were the things that Gu Zhenxi had moved out of her house over the years, taking them away for various reasons and then never returning them.

“Take a look yourself and count them clearly. Don’t wait until you leave the house and then say that you didn’t give me something.”

Gu Zhenxi stuffed the oil paper bag into Bai Ruanruan’s arms, but still couldn’t help but say a few sarcastic words to Bai Ruanruan.

She was angry that she failed to take the things away this time, but it didn’t matter. Bai Ruanruan would not move to the countryside after she got married and would stay here. She would have another chance to take the things away!

After all, this idiot is so gullible!

Bai Ruanruan took a look and made sure that everything was there, then she took her things and prepared to go downstairs.

“Hey, cousin, you haven’t told me who you’re going to marry!”

Gu Zhenxi hurriedly closed the door, then chased after him, pretending to be concerned and said, “You are so well off, don’t rush to find a partner just because you don’t want to go to the countryside. Don’t be too hasty to find someone who is ugly or crooked. This is related to your whole life!”

Bai Ruanruan didn’t say anything. She walked down to Fu Shiting and the two looked at each other.

Fu Xiujun’s eyes lit up, and she said loudly, “Ruanruan, your cousin is right. Marriage is a lifelong event, so you have to check it carefully and don’t act on impulse!”

“Cousin, we are all family, just tell me, who is your marriage partner?”

Gu Zhishi’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t hide his gloating mood.

Now is the time to go to the countryside. City people don’t want to go to the countryside and are fighting for a job. Many people get married because they can’t get a job.

Maybe Bai Ruanruan is the same. Otherwise, how could her cousin have a marriage partner in just half a month?

Gu Zhenxi looked at Bai Ruanruan excitedly and swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

But this is also acceptable. Although she won’t have to suffer in the countryside, if the person she marries is a very bad man, Bai Runrun’s life will be ruined and he will never be able to dominate her again!

Bai Ruanruan said nonchalantly: “He, he is a military comrade. He has never been married because he is busy with military affairs. Although he is a little older, he is now a regiment commander.”

A soldier, old, and a regiment commander!

Gu Zhenxi almost laughed out loud.

You know, to be able to become a battalion commander or a regiment commander, one must be at least 30 or 40 years old. According to what Bai Ruanruan said, her marriage partner must be at least over 35 years old, and may be 40 years old.

But what about Bai Ruanruan? She is just 20 years old this year. If she marries a man who is 10 or 20 years older than her, she will definitely be laughed at by many people.

The position of group leader is not low, but if a man is still unmarried at the age of nearly 40, maybe he is still ugly or has some health problems?

There’s no way she can compare to her fiancé!

Gu Zhenxi thought maliciously that her delicate cousin was too pitiful.

She is actually going to marry an old man who is almost as old as her father.

His twisted thoughts were filled with his imagination. Gu Zhenxi was satisfied and didn’t care about the bag of jewelry. He comforted her hypocritically, “Cousin, age doesn’t really matter. After all, older people have experience and know how to care for others. Only then can they take good care of you in the future!”

“Hey, you live far away, don’t you know our next-door neighbor Cuihua? She is also in her twenties, and she married a man who is more than ten years older than her. She is living a very good life after marriage!”

Gu Zhenxi said with a half-smile: “Cousin, you have to live a good life after you get married. You can’t let the man’s family know about the bad habits you have developed because of your aunt and uncle!”

Fu Shiting frowned and wanted to say something, but Bai Ruanruan held the back of her mother’s hand.

She just watched Gu Zhenxi’s performance quietly without explaining anything and just kept picking her ears, which was really too noisy.

I just hope that tomorrow, my cousin can still maintain this proud look, hehe.

There was nothing else to do any longer, so Fu Shiting and Bai Ruanruan prepared to leave.

Fu Xiujun then stood up and said politely, “It’s almost noon, stay for lunch.”

“No need, auntie. I don’t have a good appetite and can’t eat here.” Bai Ruanruan’s words were so light that Gu Zhenxi and her daughter were stunned for two seconds before they reacted.

She said she can’t eat here, but will she be able to eat when she goes back?

“Hmph, this little bitch, just because her family is well-off, she looks down on our food.” Fu Xiuyun said with a gloomy face.

Gu Zhenxi said disdainfully, “Mom, let’s not bother with her. She’s going to marry an old man soon. I’m going to make fun of her when she attends the wedding. I heard that those soldiers look older than their actual age because they are on missions all year round and exposed to the wind and sun.”

“Her fiancé should be 35 this year, but he looks to be in his 40s, almost as old as my uncle. When I see him, I will definitely make fun of him!”

“You have a point!”

There were not many cars at the moment, so the two of them walked towards the main road first. Bai Runrun took one last look at the Gu family’s location before looking away.

It’s just taking back your own things, that’s not a punishment, it’s returning the property to its original owner. Bai Runrun thought about what she was going to do tonight and looked at her mother again.

Fu Shiting is a very soft-hearted person, towards her daughter and her relatives.

In fact, she might also know that Fu Xiujun and Gu Zhenxi, mother and daughter, have always wanted to take advantage of her, but they are sisters after all, so most of the time, they just turn a blind eye.

If her plan tonight succeeds, it would not be an exaggeration to say that my aunt’s family will go bankrupt.

What if Fu Xiujun comes to ask for help and Fu Shiting is soft-hearted and wants to help?

In order to prevent her mother from being soft-hearted and feeling sorry for outsiders in the future and to provide help to their family, Bai Runrun decided that it would be better to let her know some things.

“Mom, there’s something I don’t know whether I should tell you.” Bai Ruanruan lowered her eyes, her pretty little face full of hesitation, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she had encountered something big and difficult to decide.

Fu Shiting said softly, “Ruanruan, you are my daughter. If you encounter anything you don’t understand, you can ask my advice.”

Bai Ruanruan hesitated for a while, and then hesitantly said: “I am sure that I have never signed up to go to the countryside.”

Fu Shiting was stunned and stopped.

“To register to go to the countryside, you need a letter of introduction and your personal information. But I thought about it for a long time. I really didn’t register. So why is my name on the list?”

Bai Ruanruan patiently persuaded: “The letter of introduction is at home. If someone comes to our house often, he will definitely see it. It is not difficult to take it away quietly and then return it quietly.”

“As for me, my mom and aunt are twins, and my cousin and I have inherited your looks. We look about 60% alike. If we were to wear the same clothes and let our hair down, people who don’t know us might not recognize us.”

Bai Ruanruan sighed softly, “Besides this possibility, I really can’t think of any other possibility. Besides, two days before I was notified to go to the countryside, my cousin came to our house every day, saying that she wanted to play with me, but she left after a short while.”

Fu Shiting didn’t dare to believe it at first. In her eyes, although her niece had some small thoughts and problems, they were harmless. After all, she was a junior.

Is it possible that my daughter guessed wrong?

But when Bai Runrun finished her speculations, Fu Shiting clenched her hands tightly. She had completely believed her daughter.

Her daughter is an only child, so logically she could have avoided going to the countryside. But her daughter’s name suddenly appeared on the list, and Fu Shiting felt something was wrong at the time.

She originally wanted to ask someone about it, but she was too busy with work at that time, and Bai Ruanruan didn’t want to go to the countryside, so she asked someone about the job first.

Their family did not dare to investigate the matter in a high-profile manner, because if the matter became a big deal, they might be accused of not wanting to go to the countryside to build the village. To put it in a broader sense, it would be capitalism that looked down on the rural people.

But if this thing full of loopholes was done by Gu Zhenxi, then it would be understandable.

But they are all relatives, why would she want to harm her cousin?

Fu Shiting couldn’t figure it out, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She wished she could go back and question him right away.

She thought to herself that she was very caring towards her niece. Every time she came to her house to play, she never lacked food, and she also had something useful. As long as she asked, her daughter would always give her something.

Even so, she still wanted to harm her cousin.
