Chapter 51 I admire you!
Ning's mother put down the water pipe in her hand. She looked at her daughter passing by the flower bed and her face suddenly became stern.
"An Ran, why haven't you even returned home these days?"
The first words I heard in the morning were my mother's cold question.
Ning Anran paused, turned around to look at her mother, and said calmly, "Second Miss Gu had her birthday yesterday, and I celebrated with her."
The clothes she was wearing were all bought for her by Gu Xia before, but when Ning's mother saw Ning Anran like this, alarm bells went off in her heart.
So charming and elegant, so much like Madam Ning back then.
The increasingly beautiful Ning Anran seemed to be reminding her of the mistakes she had made in the past, bringing the real golden phoenix of a wealthy family into her own home.
"An Ran, even if Miss Gu ordered you to do something, you can't keep going to her house."
She wiped the water stains on her apron and took a step forward.
"Your father and I have been trying to arrange a blind date for you. You're pretty, and everyone in the village likes you very much."
Hearing this, Ning Anran turned around completely. She looked at her increasingly elderly mother, but there was no emotion in her eyes.
"Looking for someone?"
"Mom, I just found a job. I won't be thinking about these things in the short term, so don't say these things."
The wind blew her hair, and Ning Anran ignored her mother's persuasion and walked out of the Gu family villa.
Her mother's face turned serious, and she pointed at Ning Anran and shouted angrily.
"Ning Anran!"
"I think you've grown too independent and forgotten how hard your father and I worked to raise you!"
"I'm telling you, even if you don't want to go on a blind date or get married, you still have to go on a blind date and get married!"
"Your father and I have found a partner for you. He's a wealthy man in the village. Although he's divorced and has two children, at least he has an apartment in the city."
"You better not..."
Before Ning's mother could finish her aggressive words, Li's mother, who had just returned from buying groceries, stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Oh, Sumei, why are you so anxious?"
"Didn't your daughter just find a job? This is something many people would never hope for. At least wait until her career is stable before considering marriage."
Even more unpleasant words were stuck in her throat. Seeing that there were outsiders coming, Ning's mother felt embarrassed to completely break up with Ning Anran.
All she was thinking about now was how to marry Ning Anran off and lock her completely in the underdeveloped countryside for the rest of her life.
There is a lack of information there. Once Ning Anran is sent in, she will never be able to threaten the status of her biological daughter in this life!
When her daughter is firmly on her feet, she can drag her husband up to the city to claim her as her relative. Then she can live a life of luxury, living in the city with her own villa, and she won't have to envy the rich people's nice cars and houses!
"Is your career stable?"
"You know how expensive housing is in this city. Even if An Ran is very capable and works hard for ten or twenty years, she may not be able to afford a house."
"It would be better to find a rich man to marry. It would save you the trouble and effort. You can have a baby soon. If you give birth to a big fat son, you can enjoy a peaceful and comfortable life."
"As a mother, I'm only thinking about her. If it were someone else's daughter, I wouldn't even bother to say a word!"
Ning Anran had long been accustomed to her mother's hysterical and crazy state. She didn't intend to pay attention and was about to take a step forward.
Then I heard a familiar voice behind me.
"Auntie, I bought a car and a house for Ning Anran. Isn't that better than those stinky men?"
"He's a divorced second-hand guy, and you're still interested in this kind of man, Auntie."
Gu Xia was originally sleeping soundly, and only hummed twice at Ning Anran's early awakening, feeling a little reluctant to leave.
The system's prompt sounded, prompting Gu Xia to quickly put on his clothes and slip down from the second floor of the villa.
How dare someone steal from my house while I'm away! This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed!
In order to maintain her elegance, Gu Xia specially found a coat and put it on herself.
They say clothes make the man, and her battle robe can't be bad.
What's more, in this melodramatic Mary Sue romance novel, Ning Anran's mother is not a good person. If this guy is also a vicious cannon fodder, then her level must be much higher than that of herself, a vicious female cannon fodder.
Doesn’t the whole book start with her “good advice”!
Seeing Gu Xia's expression, Ning's mother restrained what she had just said. She bent down to pick up the faucet, and a flattering smile appeared on her face.
"Second Miss Gu, you misunderstood. I was just nagging An Ran about not being home lately. I wanted her to go back and visit her father more often...it's hard for her father to be alone at home."
Gu Xia was stunned by the instantaneous face-changing scene. Even the face-changing in Sichuan Opera wouldn't be so fast!
And what was so good about Ning Anran's drunkard, gambler, and beastly father? Gu Xia felt that the best fate for him was for him to have a stroke and fall to the bed and be slapped twice by the nurse.
It would be a blessing for such a person to die early.
But looking at it this way, it’s no wonder that Ning Anran’s role as the fake mother could survive until the later stages.
Marking this person with a red name in her heart, Gu Xia stepped forward and took Ning Anran's arm. Her movements were natural, as if they did this often.
Gu Xia raised his lips and smiled, accepting Ning's mother's compliment.
"If you can't move, how about I hire a nurse for your uncle?"
It would be best if the caregiver had broken legs.
"Oh, no, no."
"Thank you, Miss Gu Er, for your concern. My husband is used to doing hard labor in the countryside, so there's no need for a nurse."
"Besides, a caregiver must be paid quite a bit a day, right? Our family has been really struggling these days."
Faced with Ning's mother's polite refusal, Gu Xia pressed on and did not give Ning's mother any chance to refuse.
"Auntie, this is a little gift from me."
"Don't worry, I'll pay for all the caregivers' expenses. I'll make sure they take good care of your uncle."
"Even though Anran has been with me all this time, this is a little gift from me to my aunt and uncle."
"Oh, yes, Auntie."
"Please let me check who An Ran will marry in the future. I've been with An Ran for so many days, I know what she likes."
Gu Xia's ability to tell lies was improving day by day. Her words kept Ning's mother speechless, and she could only nod woodenly.
I was secretly wondering, when did Miss Gu become so eloquent?
Besides, didn't she dislike An Ran for stealing the man she liked? That's why she kept looking for trouble with An Ran every now and then.
Now she has developed feelings for An Ran due to bullying, and is reluctant to let An Ran leave her side?
"Miss Gu, you don't know that country folk like us can never marry someone from the city. We can only make a living here by working."
"If you marry someone else, others will look down on you."
Gu Xia was slightly displeased by what Ning's mother said. She raised her eyebrows and said stubbornly, "Who said that? Ning Anran is very good. I like her."
