Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Chapter 425 - My Older Cousins Are In Danger, I Must Protect Them!

She had not expected something like that to happen.

Chen Feng said, “After that incident, everyone realized how difficult it is to move to the city, so they slowly came to their senses. But around that time, you went to the city and did not return for a few months. This became known when an older lady was quarreling with Old Madam Zhang.

“She said something about how the Zhang family’s dream to move to the city was just a fantasy, and that Gu Ruoqing had acted foolishly. She said that the Gu family had so many city dwellers. If she just waited for your uncles or older brothers to introduce someone to her, she could have married and moved to the city. But she foolishly refused to rely on her own uncles and cousins but depended on her stepfather instead and that was stupid of her.

“But it’s different for you because you stayed with the Gu family. You got to go to the city and in the future, Mo Beihan will also move to the city. Gu Ruoqing must have been blind to choose the Zhang family.

“Later as time went on, everyone slowly figured it out. They realized that only the Gu family has connections to the city. They want to use your connections to marry a city dweller. Or perhaps… they have their eye on your older cousins. They’re all in the city.”

Gu Qingyao: “…”

Gu Qingyao felt rather stupefied!

“Surely… surely not? They’re eyeing my older cousins? I… no… haven’t they always looked down on my family for being bad elements? Aren’t they afraid to marry into my family…”

“Gosh, I’ve already said that’s all in the past.” Chen Feng interrupted Gu Qingyao.

“Elder Sister, the truth is that, right now, they despise the Gu family for being bad elements, but they still want to marry and move to the city. My guess is that they plan to marry your older cousins and simply move to the city to live, without ever coming back again. What happens here in their hometown won’t affect them much. Think about it. No matter who they marry, it won’t be as good as marrying the Gu family boys. Now that their dreams of moving to the city have been crushed, they have thought about it and decided that your older cousins are the best choice!

“Also, all your older cousins are so handsome.”

Gu Qingyao: “…”

This was truly surprising!

Her older cousins had become hot property?

In her previous life, none of her older cousins had married someone from her hometown!

Chen Feng said, “Elder Sister Gu, I’m telling you in advance. When your older cousins come back, you must warn them to be careful. They usually come back around the new year, and all the girls here are lying in wait for them! In these times, you must tell them to be wary. Chen Honghua also has her eye on your older cousins!”

Gu Qingyao’s eyes widened. “What? What are you talking about? Don’t scare me!”

“Hee…” Chen Qingqing giggled.

Chen Feng smiled, “Trust me. I’m telling you the truth. One day, I was walking by my eldest uncle’s house and happened to spot Eldest Aunt and Chen Honghua acting secretively. I saw that no one was around, so I eavesdropped. They were discussing how to marry your older cousin!

“They were saying that your second uncle’s family is the richest. They have no young children and no burdens. The best would be to marry your second brother or your fourth brother. Zhang Xiaohui is a classic example. When she was with your family, she did not need to work much and often brought things back for her family. So she was finished the moment she left the Gu family.

“Eldest Aunt said that if Chen Honghua can marry into the Gu family, she can be like Zhang Xiaohui. She can help her own family and can even move to the city.”

Gu Qingyao: “…”

Oh my!

Her older cousins were in danger. She must save them!

Gu Qingyao chatted with them for a while longer before running back home.

When she asked her father if it was true, her father looked grim and said, “Is that so?”

Gu Qingyao: “…”
