Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 1432 - 1434: I Didn’t Scare You, Did I?

After the meal, Li Chuntao felt somewhat inferior.

When Xiaoxiao was a girl at home, she clearly couldn’t cook.

In such a short amount of time, she could make so many dishes; the sister-in-law did say she was just assisting, and all those dishes were made by Xiaoxiao.

And after tasting, she thought the flavor was quite delicious.

She wondered if she might have the same talent as Xiaoxiao, and whether she could make such tasty food if she learned.

At the table, she also noticed that, as Xiaoxiao said, she was living quite well here, getting along harmoniously with her family.

After the meal, seeing Yang Dong go to work in the fields again, she didn’t rush to leave.

In the afternoon, the Yang Family, just like in the morning, sat in the yard shelling corn.

Originally, she intended to continue helping, but this time the Yang Family refused, saying she was a guest, and they couldn’t let her work all day.

They let her follow Xiaoxiao and take care of the children, and whether she wanted to go inside or stay in the yard was up to her.

She thought about it, concerned that her hands might not hold up if she continued, so she agreed.

She followed Xiaoxiao to Xiaoxiao’s room, and upon entering, was surprised. Xiaoxiao had been married for almost a year, yet the room was still decorated in red, like a newlywed room.

Upon asking, Xiaoxiao said she and her husband wanted to feel like they were newly married every day, sweet and loving.

Such an answer made her somewhat envious.

The two hadn’t seen each other for a long time and were very curious about Xiaoxiao’s experiences over the past year, so they kept chatting.

Before realizing it, it was already evening.

The Yang Family still wanted her to stay for dinner, but she refused, knowing Yang Dong would surely return soon, she couldn’t linger any longer, so she said goodbye.

Xiaoxiao originally wanted to escort her, but she also refused, saying that she wasn’t a child, and it was so close that there was no need; besides, she was from the countryside too, not some real lady, not so pampered.

She walked home herself like this, and was nearly home when she saw someone coming her way—it was Yang Dong, wasn’t it?

Was he just coming back from working in the fields?

Yang Dong was indeed coming back from the fields, having delivered the last cart of corn to Yang Xiaocui’s house, he decided to head home, not expecting to run into that girl again.

Was she just coming out of his family’s place and heading home?

The two of them approached each other, and it was Li Chuntao who spoke first, "Did you just finish work and come back?"

She felt that since they had formally met, it wouldn’t be good to just pass by like that, a greeting was in order.

"Yeah," Yang Dong replied, thinking it wasn’t quite proper for him, a man, to let the woman initiate the greeting; plus, considering yesterday’s incident, he felt he was more at fault. Now that they were acquainted, he should apologize, so he said, "Sorry about last night, didn’t scare you, did I?"

Li Chuntao didn’t expect Yang Dong to bring up last night, quickly said, "No, not scared. The yard isn’t just mine, it’s okay."

The situation was a bit awkward, Yang Dong felt there wasn’t much more to say, and seeing she seemed about to leave, he said, "Then I’ll head on."

"Oh, okay."

Li Chuntao just watched as Yang Dong walked past her, she turned her head to look at Yang Dong’s back, smiled slightly, then turned to leave.

After walking a few steps, she looked up and saw Yang Xiaocui watching her.

Her heart skipped a beat; did she see her talking to Yang Dong? Would she misunderstand?
