"Young lady, how can you say such things at your age?" Liang Xiu couldn't stand it any longer. She was a traditional woman and couldn't bear to see such a child. If this were her own daughter, she would have slapped her and made her reflect.
Zhou Ruishu paid no attention to Liang Xiu's words. Instead, she felt Liang Xiu was old-fashioned. Clearly, she came from the countryside and didn't understand love at all! "So what if I'm a girl? Girls have the right to pursue love!"
"Love?" Su Xiaotian chuckled. Did this girl even understand what love was? Love was mutual affection. What was this? Could forced buying and selling be called love?
Grandma Su, overhearing the conversation, quickly covered Su Xiaotian's ears. "My precious child is still young and can't be corrupted by such a shameless girl." She even glared at Zhou Ruishu and scolded, "At your age, you're already thinking about men. I don't know how your family raised you." If she had the time, she really wanted to find Zhou Ruishu's parents and have a good talk about child-rearing.
Grandma Su's voice was not quiet, and Zhou Ruishu heard her clearly. She immediately turned black with anger. What did this mean? She was pursuing love, so why was she considered shameless? This family was against her! No, it wasn't that they were against her. It was that this family were all fools, uncultured bumpkins who didn't understand anything. They were old-fashioned and didn't understand how precious her determination to break free and find love was.
Liang Xiu kept looking at Zhou Ruishu. This child, who looked no more than two years older than Xiaotian, had such strange things in her head. Before Liang Xiu could even process it, Zhou Ruishu spoke again. "You feudal moralists don't understand love at all. I've fallen in love with Chi Yiyuan, it was love at first sight, and I will marry him!" Zhou Ruishu shouted with red eyes, as if only then could she express her feelings.
Su Xiao Jiu couldn't help but laugh. "Eighth Brother, have you ever heard of forcing a horse to drink water?"
Su Xiao Ba responded cooperatively, "No, I haven't. But I've heard another saying that fits here!"
Su Xiao Jiu asked curiously, "What saying?"
"I've never seen such a shameless person!" Su Xiao Ba's serious words made everyone else laugh. Even Chi Yiyuan, who rarely smiled, chuckled. He didn't expect these two youngsters to be so interesting!
"You're right, I've never seen such a shameless person!" Chi Yiyuan stated his firm support.
Although Grandpa Su and Grandma Su were not highly educated, they understood what their grandsons were saying. They both nodded repeatedly, agreeing that they had indeed never seen such a shameless person.
Su Xiao Liu even wondered if her parents would be angered to death if they heard her bizarre theories. Oh, probably not! After all, the parents of such a bizarre person would also be bizarre! Hadn't they already experienced it?
"You..." Zhou Ruishu's face turned dark from their taunts. She hadn't expected that pursuing love would be such a difficult path. She looked at Chi Yiyuan with longing eyes, as if he were her last hope. "Are you just going to watch these country bumpkins bully me?"
Chi Yiyuan rubbed his forehead. Didn't she understand what was being said? It had all been made clear. Why was she still so persistent? Truly shameless! "I'll say it again, you and I have nothing to do with each other. If you want to marry, I won't marry you! Furthermore, are you sure you're being bullied, or are you bringing shame upon yourself?"
Su Xiaotian realized that Chi Yiyuan was also sharp-tongued. The cool and detached young man was not quite as she had imagined! Seeing Su Xiaotian smiling with her eyes curved, Chi Yiyuan felt much happier. As long as Xiaotian was happy, nothing else mattered!
"You, you..." Zhou Ruishu couldn't continue. At this moment, she saw Chi Yiyuan looking at Su Xiaotian, her anger and jealousy surging. She was momentarily speechless.
"What 'you'? You girl, you should leave my house quickly. We don't welcome people like you!" Grandma Su couldn't bear to watch any longer and directly told her to leave.
"You dare to drive me away? Do you know who I am?" Zhou Ruishu yelled.
Su Xiaotian found it amusing. Wasn't this the prelude to "My dad is Li Gang"? She was really looking forward to it! No one answered. To these people, who Zhou Ruishu was, truly didn't matter. To them, she was just a shameless person, nothing more.
Zhou Ruishu, waiting for someone to ask, spoke herself. "My grandfather is Zhou Qiliang, and my maternal grandfather is Wannian!" She said this with pride in her eyes. Aren't you scared now? Aren't you? She knew they would be scared. Her grandfathers were very powerful people, whom ordinary people wouldn't dare to provoke! But why didn't she see any fear on their faces?
"Oh, your grandfather is Zhou Qiliang, and your maternal grandfather is Wannian! We know. You can leave now!" Liang Xiu said with a serious expression. Liang Xiu wasn't deliberately acting serious; she simply had no idea who Zhou Qiliang and Wannian were. But Zhou Ruishu didn't know that Liang Xiu hadn't reacted yet. She thought her formidable grandfathers were just names to Liang Xiu. She only thought Liang Xiu was deliberately humiliating her.
"You are too hateful! I'm going to find my grandfather, I'm going to find my maternal grandfather, and I won't let you off!" Zhou Ruishu finally couldn't hold on and ran away crying.
Chi Yiyuan watched the figure run away and sighed helplessly. He was considering whether he could no longer come to Yimingxuan. This was a place of business. If this girl named Zhou Ruishu caused trouble every few days, it would be a real problem.
Su Xiao Qi said with amusement, "Is this a case of 'if we disagree, I'll report to my parents'?"
Su Xiao Liu agreed, "I think so. Truly spineless!"
"Someone like this, it's good she didn't get into Seventh Middle School. If she had, we probably wouldn't have had any peace!" Su Xiao Ba said with youthful seriousness.
"It's not that we wouldn't have peace, it's mainly Yiyuan Brother who wouldn't have peace!" Su Xiao Jiu said gleefully, even glancing meaningfully at Chi Yiyuan. What a karma to encounter such a peculiar person.
"How can this girl be like this? Are all girls in the capital like this?" Grandma Su said worriedly. If all the girls in the capital were so shameless, she really wouldn't dare to let Xiaotian stay in the capital. Grandma Su suddenly remembered the two children raised by Shen Zizhen, who seemed to be similar. Perhaps children in the capital just grew up crooked? She decided they shouldn't open this restaurant and should return to their hometown immediately. Grandma Su was a decisive person, and as soon as she thought of this possibility, she took action.
Seeing Grandma Su about to pack up and leave, everyone was surprised. "Mom, what are you doing?" Liang Xiu was very puzzled. Even if someone caused trouble, it was just a young girl. What was the big deal? Why flee in disarray?
"I'm packing up to go home! The children in the capital are all growing up crooked!" Grandma Su said this without hesitation.
"Grandma, how is that possible? Look, Sister Xiaomei has been in the capital for over a year and hasn't turned out like this," Su Xiao Qi quickly said.
Hearing Su Xiao Qi's words, Grandma Su rolled her eyes and glared at him fiercely, saying unhappily, "It's because the soil and water of our Hongxin Brigade raised her well. Look at the children in the capital, how many have I seen? Not a single good one!" Everyone was speechless. Grandma Su's statement wasn't entirely wrong, but the premise was that she hadn't seen many children in the capital! Because she encountered one peculiar person like Zhou Ruishu, she dismissed everyone else?
"Grandma, it won't happen. We've all grown up. Even if it's in the capital... we won't grow up crooked!" Su Xiaotian said quickly. It had taken her so much effort to get her family to agree to come to the capital and start a new venture. How could they go back for such a strange reason? This Zhou Ruishu was truly harmful. She wondered what grudge she had against her in her past life.
"Yes, Grandma Su, many people in the capital are good. This is an isolated case." After repeated assurances from everyone, Grandma Su reluctantly believed that not all children in the capital were bad or crooked. However, she still repeatedly cautioned her own children, "You must not learn from them, always idle and thinking about nonsense!" "You are of school age, so you should study hard and learn knowledge. Look at your brothers, they haven't thought about these things!" "Yiyuan, I've watched you grow up, you mustn't associate with such girls, you'll be led astray."
Listening to Grandma Su's advice, Chi Yiyuan subconsciously looked at Su Xiaotian. He had never thought of associating with unrelated girls. He only wanted to associate with Su Xiaotian, and that was all. "Grandma Su, I understand. Don't worry, I will stay far away from such girls!" Chi Yiyuan immediately responded obediently.
Grandma Su was relieved and nodded, saying, "You also have to help look after my mischievous monkeys!" Chi Yiyuan nodded in agreement again. Su Xiaotian couldn't help but laugh at her brothers' dejected expressions. They probably wouldn't be too happy being disciplined at school!
"Yiyuan Brother, even if you want to stay away from her, what if she doesn't let you go?" Su Xiaotian asked curiously. She had no doubt that a brainless girl like Zhou Ruishu wouldn't know what it meant to give up voluntarily. She would probably pester Chi Yiyuan for a very long time to come. In other words, Chi Yiyuan's troubles were still ahead!
Chi Yiyuan hadn't considered this, but he felt it wasn't a problem. In any case, he wouldn't give such a woman a good look. Wouldn't she believe that one could persist when facing a cold face every time? At this moment, Chi Yiyuan truly didn't know that he had indeed encountered a peculiar person among peculiar people.
