The voice had an extremely rough undertone, but when it came out of the throat, it sounded like a woman from Jiangnan speaking in a pinched voice.
Nine parts rough, one part delicate.
In short, it was given a twisted and convoluted flavor.
The surrounding villagers burst into laughter upon hearing this.
"Hahahaha... This is hilarious! You want to marry the eldest son of the Xiao family? You're clearly looking to get married!"
"No wonder people say that butchers never lack meat, even in famine years they can have two ounces of meat every day. Today I've seen the truth for myself. It's not just that they don't lack meat, they can't possibly eat it all!"
"That's right! If it weren't for the fact that this Gao family girl has such a tough fate and isn't so unattractive, I would be willing to become a live-in son-in-law in the Gao family. Three meals a day, braised pork every single day, how delicious that would be!"
"If you're going, then hurry up and go. The moment you go to the Gao family for a feast, I'll prepare your gift for the banquet..."
Inside the carriage, Su Hua was enjoying her melon, while Su Baishi beside her shot off like an arrow.
Pushing through the crowd with one hand and putting the other on her hip, she rushed to the pink-clad figure in a few strides. "Look at you! A proper young woman, without a matchmaker or betrothal, dares to block a man's doorstep, talking about marriage and being married off. Don't you even know what shame is? You've completely disgraced us women..."
It was precisely because of this commotion that the Su siblings were able to see the full picture of the pink figure.
To say that this figure was imposing is actually an understatement.
This is clearly a small, walking hill!
I don't know if it's because the pink clothes make her look darker or what, but the exposed parts of her neck, face, and hands were all shiny black.
Su Hua's mind was even more unconsciously in sync with those sumo wrestlers in her daily life, and even more so with the larger version of sumo wrestlers.
She had heard Yu Feng mention it before; this Miss Gao had come to the end of the village a few times, but each time it was done secretly. This was the first time she had made such a big fuss that everyone knew about it.
Gao Ruhua was about to have a serious talk with the villagers who were laughing at her when she suddenly heard Su Baishi's words, and her thick, dark eyebrows furrowed instantly.
"You old hag, I love Brother Jinhan and want to be his wife, so what? What's it to you? Who do you think you are, interfering in my business..."
"Pah! I can't care if you marry a pig, a dog, or a tiger! But it's unacceptable if you're eyeing that Jin Han boy!" Madam Su put her hands on her hips, her eyes full of sarcasm.
"Jinhan has no father or mother, and he only calls me 'Auntie.' He is a member of our Su family, so naturally he has to ask me, his auntie, what kind of girl he wants to marry."
Someone like you, let alone Jin Han looking down on you, even I, an old woman, find it an eyesore. If I got up at night and saw you, I probably wouldn't be able to tell if you were a person or a ghost..."
Upon hearing this, Gao Ruhua's narrowed eyes suddenly widened, and even the small black mole under her eye seemed to come alive.
"Old woman, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by 'like me'?! I've been good-looking since I was a child in Gaojiatun. Everyone who sees me compliments my looks. And you still don't like me? What makes you think you can't like me..."
Before the woman could finish speaking, the villagers, who had been laughing so hard they were shaking with joy, burst into laughter, clutching their bellies and bending over backward.
"Hahahaha, my goodness! She's been beautiful since she was a child in Gaojiatun... Hahahahahaha..."
"If she's the prettiest girl in Gaojiatun, then if I went there, wouldn't I be the prettiest girl in the whole village!"
"I wonder what kind of monsters and demons live in Gaojiatun. Maybe we should go and take a look sometime, so we can be beauties for once."
"What are you looking at? Shanghe Village and Gaojiatun are more than a dozen villages apart. Going back and forth would break your legs..."
Gao Ruhua's round face scrunched up from everyone's laughter. She was already the prettiest girl in the village, so why were they all laughing at her?
From a young age, her father often told her that her family was always the best-looking among the two hundred households in Gaojiatun, and that she was the best-looking in her family.
On the contrary, the people in Shanghe Village are all ugly and deformed!
Especially this old woman and her family, the men and women were all pale and creepy, and the little girl next to the old woman was the ugliest.
Not only did he not have a single patch of nice dark skin, but he was also skinny and small, with such a large pair of X's in the front, making him a complete ugly monster.
I'm afraid it would be blown away by the wind!
Su Hua was completely baffled by the other person's gaze for the first time.
What does this blatant disdain mean?
"Stop laughing! No one is allowed to laugh!" Gao Ruhua put her hands on her hips and slammed her right leg into the ground.
A hole was kicked into the muddy ground overgrown with weeds.
Her gaze toward Su Baishi carried a hidden warning: "Old woman, I love Brother Jinhan. Whether Brother Jinhan marries into the family or I marry him, it's all between him and me."
Brother Jinhan's parents are still alive. His father came to my Gaojiatun to discuss the marriage. It has no right for you, an aunt who appeared out of nowhere, to make the decision!
"You'd better get out of my way right now, or don't blame me for getting rough..."
"Get rough?" Su Hua looked at Gao Ruhua's hand that was itching to hit her, raised her leg and kicked the woman in the back of her right knee.
Thump!
She kicked the man so hard he was kneeling on one knee, her clear almond-shaped eyes gleaming with cold light. "You wanted to lay a hand on my mother? Did you even ask me?"
The villagers had only ever seen Su Hua with a smiling face, and when they suddenly saw her make a move... no, a kick, they were all stunned.
This cold demeanor is completely different from the soft, affectionate way she used to call everyone "uncle" and "aunt."
And the other person weighs nearly 300 pounds, yet she managed to kick her to her knees with one kick?!
But then they thought, if anyone dared to lay a hand on their mother, even if they couldn't kick them to the ground, they would still teach them a lesson!
Gao Ruhua was also stunned by the kick and it took her a long time to come to her senses.
Anger flared up in her small, squinty eyes in an instant. "You ugly monster, how dare you hit me? You don't want to live anymore..."
Su Hua: "…………"
Ugly monster?
So, the disdain in her eyes earlier meant she thought I was too ugly?
