This vague information did not extinguish Xia Shuqin's curiosity; on the contrary, it made her curiosity even stronger, like a raging flame that burned brighter and brighter and could not be extinguished.
She kept wondering what kind of story this ordinary working couple had, and how they had raised Xia Wan to be such an outstanding person in their ordinary lives.
Perhaps after get off work, they will disregard their fatigue and accompany Xia Wan to read and learn to read; perhaps when Xia Wan encounters difficulties, they will give her the strength to move forward with warm embraces and encouraging words.
Xia Wan slightly raised her slender, willow-leaf-like eyebrows, which resembled two lively willow leaves dancing gently in the breeze, as if telling the story of her inner liveliness and playfulness.
A faint smile curved upwards at the corners of her lips, like a crescent moon. Her smile was as beautiful and captivating as a peach blossom in spring. In a clear and melodious voice, she asked, "Oh? How is it different?"
Her voice was like a nightingale singing in a valley, melodious and graceful, with a touch of casualness and freedom, like a deer running freely in the mountains, unrestrained and captivating.
The sound seemed to possess a magical power, instantly dispelling the surrounding gloom and bringing a touch of freshness and vitality, like injecting a lively breath into the dull air.
However, her lively voice contrasted sharply with her seemingly delicate appearance.
She was petite and delicate, like a budding flower swaying gently in the breeze, exuding a faint fragrance.
Her face was as white as jade, with a soft luster, as if it were carved from the finest jade, delicate and warm.
Her arched eyebrows, like a crescent moon, were set against her fair face, making her eyes appear even clearer and more captivating, like autumn water. They seemed to see through everything in the world, and the light shining in her eyes held wisdom and determination, making one feel a sense of tenderness and pity.
She stood there, like a beautiful painting, every detail exuding captivating charm. Yet, when she opened her mouth, she revealed a decisiveness and intelligence completely different from her appearance, making people's eyes light up, as if they had discovered a bright pearl buried in the dust.
Xia Shuqin stood to the side, carefully examining Xia Wan from head to toe with curiosity in her eyes, as if she had discovered some new and wonderful treasure.
Her eyes gleamed with a searching light, as if she wanted to find all the answers to her curiosity from Xia Wan.
She scrutinized Xia Wan from head to toe, trying to uncover the secrets behind her uniqueness from every detail.
She noticed a unique confidence in Xia Wan's every move, a composure that remained even after weathering storms.
After a moment, she spoke, "Originally, I thought you would be a well-behaved and dull girl. But I never expected you to be so eloquent, and to have your own unique insights and opinions."
Actually, Xia Shuqin was just saying the nice things.
After all, in her heart, Xia Wan was indeed very different from the petty girls she had met before.
Those girls were either timid and cowardly, like frightened little rabbits, too scared to speak at the slightest disturbance, trembling in the corner; or they were coy and pretentious, lacking any opinions, shrinking back in front of others, afraid to show their true selves, and cautious in their words and actions.
Unlike Xia Wan before me, who is poised and confident, sharp-tongued, and exudes a unique charm, every move she makes radiating confidence and ease.
In the crowd, she shines like a bright pearl, attracting everyone's attention. Her words and actions reveal her inner strength and wisdom.
Hearing Xia Shuqin's praise, Xia Wan couldn't help but chuckle softly. Her laughter was as clear and melodious as a silver bell, echoing in the empty corridor.
The laughter, like joyful musical notes, leaped through the air, conveying happiness and confidence.
She raised her beautiful eyebrows again, and asked in surprise, "Oh dear, that just means the person you sent to investigate me wasn't capable enough! You know, although I haven't been in the countryside for long, I'm quite well-known in the village! If they had just put in a little effort to inquire, they certainly wouldn't have come to such a wrong conclusion!"
As she spoke, Xia Wan's eyes sparkled with a clear and bright light, revealing a maturity and determination far beyond what one should have for her age.
It seems that no matter what difficulties and setbacks she encounters, they cannot defeat her; instead, they make her stronger and braver.
Her eyes shone with confidence and pride in her experiences, as if recounting her life in the countryside, experiences that helped her grow and made her stand out from the crowd.
She recalled her days in the countryside, working alongside the villagers, sweating in the fields, and laughing together. Those simple smiles and sincere friendships, like brilliant stars, are embedded in the river of her memory, becoming the foundation of her growth.
There, she learned resilience, the value of cherishing, and how to find hope in adversity.
Xia Shuqin was oblivious to the deeper meaning hidden in Xia Wan's words. Upon hearing them, she couldn't help but burst into laughter, her laughter as clear and melodious as silver bells.
"Oh my, you little rascal, you're so confident! But, Auntie just loves you the way you are!"
