At the thought, the woman spoke without courtesy.
“Name your price,” she said.
Lin Chunju was not an easygoing person either, which is why the people of Daye Village were afraid of her.
Seeing that reasoning with this person was futile, Lin Chunju didn’t bother to engage further and, with a bang, shut the door firmly.
If it hadn’t been for Mrs. Song stepping back, she might have been hit in the nose.
She was immediately infuriated and slammed the door without caring about her demeanor.
“You are so rude, I was not done talking!”
Lin Chunju opened the door again, furrowing her brows, “Is there anything else?”
Infuriated, Mrs. Song’s chest heaved, “How much money do you want to agree?”
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
“Not for sale!”
Lin Chunju slammed the door again, and Mrs. Song almost burst with vexation, only to be pulled away by her husband.
“Forget it, let’s ask someone else.”
The receptionist hadn’t expected things to escalate like this and whispered, “There’s another suite upstairs, shall I take you to see it?”
Mrs. Song, dragged by her husband, still turned her head angrily towards Lin Chunju’s room and shouted loudly.
“Such a classless country bumpkin, what good can come from teaching her children? Even if they have a suite, how does it matter, they surely won’t pass the exam.”
Her voice echoed in the corridor, prompting many to open their doors and peek out.
In a place frequented by parents of college entrance exam students, such an insult was about as vicious as a curse could get.
Song Hongye’s face flushed with embarrassment as he quickly said, “Enough! Keep it down, let’s ask someone else.”
He lamented inwardly again: how had he, a distinguished professor, ended up marrying Du Lianxin, a woman seemingly lacking in brains.
Calling them country people, as if she hadn’t been a bona fide village woman herself.
Back when he was sent down to the countryside as an educated youth, he had indeed been unable to shake off Du Lianxin, otherwise he would never have spent his later years with such a vulgar woman.
Her only merit in this lifetime was giving him a good son.
The sound of Du Lianxin’s voice reached the room, instantly dampening Yue Xingxing’s budding fascination with city life.
“Grandma, why would she say such a thing?”
Dressed so nicely, yet so venomous with her words, no wonder many in the village said city folks looked down on them.
Yue Qingqing comforted her sister, “Don’t be angry, people with such venomous tongues must live bitter lives.”
She wasn’t just making it up, after all, you could see the air around those two.
Clearly a pair of resentful spouses.
Yue Xingxing nodded significantly, “Makes sense!”
Without needing Lin Chunju’s consolation further, Yue Xingxing started rolling around on the bed again.
That’s how straightforward the emotions of young children could be.
Lin Chunju couldn’t help but chuckle, “Alright, rest a bit more and then we’ll go to the school to pick up your younger uncle.”
Upon hearing this, Yue Xingxing immediately scrambled off the bed, put on her shoes, and ran to the door, grabbing the handle.
“Grandma, I’m rested now!”
She wanted to see the city school.
Yue Qingqing followed closely, slinging on the small backpack sewn by Yue Xiaofang.
“Grandma, let’s go now.”
The candied hawthorn sold outside her uncle’s school was delicious, with crisp and sweet hawthorn fruits, walnut kernels, and little persimmon cakes sandwiched in between.
Evenly sprinkled with sesame and coated with a sugary crust, a single bite would crunch with a mix of sweet, soft, and chewy textures.
Last time she had bought two specifically to bring back for Yue Xiaohu and Yue Xingxing, but the weather was so hot.
By the time she brought them back, the sugar had mostly melted, sticking to her hands along the skewer, and the treats weren’t as tasty.
This time she would finally be able to eat fresh ones with Sister Xingxing.
Looking at the two little ones, Lin Chunju’s slight discontent immediately vanished.
“Alright, let’s take our little treasures out!”
