As a relatively traditional Xiahua person, Ke Meiyu actually has a little bit of superstition and believes that there are gods watching over us. However, her rationality prevails, and she has never put it into practice.
Many people in the circle like to follow trends. Today they play with Buddhist beads, tomorrow they go to a certain temple to worship Buddha and burn incense, or they hear that a certain master is very accurate in fortune telling, so they pray for marriage and future prospects.
Some people even went to Thailand to invite little devils to serve them in a mystical manner.
Ke Meiyu didn't know if these things were true or false, but the apocalypse had come, people had gained superpowers, she had been reborn and transmigrated, and she had a little fox fairy cousin-in-law at home. Now, the divine beast Wangdi had appeared. Tell me, what else is impossible in this world?
Since the elders say the Qi family is capable, she wants to see what kind of ability they have that could cripple her!
My younger cousin, who had helped write letters at the town post office, rode back on her bike. From afar, she saw her sister-in-law with an incredibly beautiful woman. Her eyes widened, and she grinned, shouting, "Sister Baobao!"
Ke Meiyu was taken aback by her address, and her mouth twitched.
She discovered that everyone liked her and started using her own unique nickname, using the most affectionate and adorable ones possible.
Others felt awkward listening to them, but they were shouting with joy!
The gentle and pretty young girl rushed up to him with a giggle, then suddenly stopped, leaving only a finger's width of space between her and Ke Meiyu.
Seeing that her little cousin wasn't screaming in fright like before, she looked disappointed. "Baby, where did you go to practice your courage?"
Ke Meiyu glared at her. This little girl was also nice to the original owner, but little girls are prone to comparison and jealousy. The old aunt was too good to the original owner, which naturally aroused the little girl's slight hostility.
In fact, the little girl Ji Yanfei also liked the original owner. She wouldn't fight over the good food and toys, but she liked to play pranks and watch her little cousin cry and scream in a spoiled manner.
Ke Meiyu snorted, "Feifei, haven't you heard the saying, 'A scholar should be looked at with new eyes after three days of separation'? How can you still judge me with such an old and stagnant perspective?"
Ji Yanfei looked at her in surprise, "Oh my goodness, has my baby sister become a different person? Why is she suddenly acting all high and mighty?"
Ke Meiyu paused, suddenly understanding a saying: those who truly understand you are always your acquaintances!
This girl is right.
This also made her realize from another angle just how good-for-nothing the original owner really was. Just a few simple words made the young girl so surprised!
One of my cousins said with a smile, "It's not that Yu Bao'er has changed, it's that her husband is amazing!"
Everyone joked and praised Qin Yuanjiu for his handsome appearance, his ability to drive a tractor, and, more importantly, his refined and cultured demeanor, suggesting he would have a bright future.
Ke Meiyu's smile was natural, without a trace of shyness.
She was always thick-skinned in this regard, and she nodded seriously, taking the opportunity to clear herself of suspicion of drastic changes after her rebirth, and complained with a frown: "Comrade Qin watches me study every day."
"Baby Sister, you didn't agree to let my mom come over just to avoid studying, did you?"
“I heard that worker-peasant-soldier college students also have to take an exam to get into school, Sister Baobao, don’t let yourself be rejected,” Ji Yanfei said bluntly and unlovably.
Ke Meiyu gritted her teeth, "No way."
However, she did not miss Ji Yanfei's fleeting look of envy.
The Ji family was a scholarly family, and even though they had fallen on hard times, their core values, shaped by strict ancestral precepts, had never changed. Daily recitation, calligraphy practice, and writing had become ingrained habits for them.
Although the current situation is not good and the college entrance examination has been abolished, the Ji family members all have a high school education level.
Every year, there are high school graduates in the town, but there are only a few job opportunities, so the Ji family's children have returned to the countryside to pick up hoes and work.
There was not a trace of resentment or unwillingness on their faces. This is the demeanor of a scion of a great family. They can endure loneliness and will surely achieve great things when the time is right!
Ke Meiyu didn't plan to do anything. After all, the college entrance examination would be reinstated in two years, and that would be the time when the Ji family would truly take off.
Back home, Ji Yanfei ate her meal while smiling and telling her family about the day's events.
Her handwriting is beautiful, and her letters are full of emotion, making her very popular. Young people often ask her to help them write letters to their partners in other cities.
Many young couples were even brought together by her romantic love letters, which was her source of pride and a little smugness, earning her the title of "Moon Consort."
As she spoke, she frowned and snorted, "I saw Yu Yiming today; he went to the post office to pick up his mail."
“What he does is none of our business,” his twin brother, Ji Yuchen, said angrily.
"Ji Yanfei, how many times have I told you, let's just pretend he never existed, okay?"
Ji Yanfei's expression darkened slightly as she pursed her lips, speaking with a hint of hatred: "Brother, I know. Ever since he reported our family to others, he has been my enemy! But I overheard him talking to other educated youths that he will be returning to the city after the New Year."
"Unfortunately, he got the chance to return to the city early by stepping on our family's connections, while there was nothing we could do!"
Ke Meiyu heard many stories about this and planned to ask her aunt for more details that evening.
Uncle Ji said with a stern face, "Didn't we say that matter is long gone? We have to move on and not hold onto meaningless resentment."
"Let Yu Yiming go back to the city. He's petty and full of bad intentions. We're actually more comfortable without him around."
"You must believe that good will prevail over evil, and those with good intentions will ultimately be treated well, while those who are opportunistic and repay kindness with ingratitude will eventually fall!"
Ji Yanfei pouted, "Believe in what? Father, you're just leaving everything to fate and time."
"All I know is that if you want something, you have to fight for it with your own hands. If you want to get justice for yourself, you have to have a plan! What are you waiting for by passively waiting?"
Ke Meiyu nodded in agreement, saying, "Uncle, I think Feifei is right. Justice will come, but it usually comes too late. Maybe people will only feel a little bit of regret when they die peacefully in their coffins."
"What you're doing is inaction. It's fine for broad-minded people, but for people like me and Feifei who can't stand being slighted, they'd suffocate themselves!"
The old aunt quickly spat a few times, "You guys should talk properly, stop talking about dying."
“But Youqing, I think the kids have a point. Why should he, an outsider, bully our whole family like this, and we can’t do anything about it?”
She had been holding this grudge for too long, but she knew the Ji family's character and behavior very well, and Yu Yiming was as slippery as an eel, never leaving any trace of his true intentions.
So much so that she couldn't find a way to attack.
