Reincarnation Chapter 141

C141 – Be Careful

These words had grabbed the men’s attention, eliciting amusement from them. “Your comparison is absurd. You’re putting yourself up against them. She isn’t as attractive as you believe. She might be the village belle, but you’re not lacking either.”

She had always regarded herself on par with the village belle. The local men had all shown interest in her. Yet, now that she had been outshined, these men couldn’t take their eyes off Gu Yuehuan. It left her feeling off-kilter.

Jiang Yan had pursued her previously, but astonishingly, he had now taken a liking to Gu Yuehuan.

Previously, she hadn’t thought there was any competition, but now, upon seeing Gu Yuehuan’s face, she felt a twinge of imbalance.

Since childhood, Gu Yuehuan had never outshone her in terms of looks or anything else. How could she suddenly be more attractive than her now? It was hard to accept!

The urge to mar Gu Yuehuan’s face and see how she’d fare had taken hold of her.

She wanted to see how she could become the village beauty! Only hideous creatures deserved her portion!

Upon Huo Qingyue’s return, he was met with an immense pile of items at the doorstep. He couldn’t fathom the reason behind this accumulation.

Just as he entered, Zhao Yun’s expression altered. He approached her, only to find her at a loss for words as she chided him, “Observe how splendidly you’ve handled this. My wife always dresses elegantly, intentionally beguiling men. Have you any notion how this heap of offerings at the doorstep came to be? They are gifts from the neighboring village, all meant for your wife. Despite her marriage, she dares to entice a multitude of men!”

“I told you ages ago to advise your wife against slimming down. See the hubbub she’s stirred after shedding those pounds? Yet, you remained incredulous and continued to defend her. I wager your wife will flee with one of them sooner or later!”

Initially unaware of the full story, Huo Qingyue’s brows furrowed upon hearing this. Clearly displeased, he reproached her sternly, “Mom, why did you implicate Yuehuan in this mess? Where did all these things come from?”

Zhao Yun was busy selecting dishes, “How did she get them? Didn’t they come from those men who were smitten with your wife? And what sort of tonics did the town’s big shot give you? Now that your wife has slimmed down and blossomed, she’s become alluring, but men are captivated by her culinary prowess. Those with means and without are gifting her. There’s an abundance of fruits and vegetables right at the doorstep! You chastised me when I urged your wife to gain a bit of weight. Did you witness it? Slim down, and you’ll become as captivating as a fox or a seductress. Who’s to say how you’ll entice men? Otherwise, why would so many be attracted to you?”

Zhao Yun hadn’t considered this aspect. The main reason was Gu Yuehuan hadn’t returned even after an hour. She had gone to town to buy groceries and hadn’t made it back.

Conversely, the neighboring aunties, seeing numerous men delivering items to Zhao Yun’s house, expressed envy and bitterness. “Zhao Yun, your daughter-in-law seems quite remarkable. She’s caught the attention of so many. With so many men bringing her things, you should be cautious! Don’t let her be stolen by someone else.”

Though Zhao Yun and Gu Yuehuan’s relationship had recently soured, one had to consider they were still family. Family members shouldn’t be preyed upon by others, so Zhao Yun defended her kin, saying, “How could she be snatched away? The relationship between Yuehuan and Qing Yun can’t be that harmonious.”

These few aunties were infamous for their jealousy. They resented Gu Yuehuan’s financial gains and growing beauty. Feeling overshadowed, they attempted to breed discord.

“You can’t brush it aside. Look, she’s earning money now. Is she the same as she used to be? I heard she’s even bought other people’s stores and is making a fortune. If she keeps making money like this, she could continue studying. She might even elope with someone wealthy in a big city someday! You’d be left with nothing. If you really move to a city and abscond with someone, it’ll end up being your loss.”

“You better be cautious. Not having a child might be strategic for future escapes. If you don’t have children, you won’t be burdened.”
