Rebirth in a Book: The Road to Breakthrough

Seeing Fu Hu's anxious look, she was even more certain that there must be something exciting to see, and her heart felt like a little bug was constantly tickling her. If I go out for a while, grandma won't notice. Yu Congcong thought so in her heart and began to take action.

She slowly got off the bed and stood at the door to observe carefully. The bright sunshine illuminated the small area at the door, and the light and shadow swayed gently with the breeze. After confirming that she didn't see her grandmother, she slowly moved her feet, paying special attention to her wound.

Dad is now the leader of the militia, and he is leading his team to investigate the wild boars that destroyed the villagers' sweet potatoes. Grandma is extremely busy, either working in the vegetable garden or weeding in the rice field.

Grandma also planned to sell all the late rice and use the money to pay for Yu Congcong's schooling. However, Yu Congcong disagreed, but no one listened to her. She had already made up her mind to skip to a higher grade.

In the past, Yu Congcong never felt how big her yard was, but today she felt that her room was too far from the gate, as if there was a vast field between them.

Yu Congcong took a lot of effort to finally move to the door. At this moment, "Congcong, are you bored? I'll hold you and go to watch the fun." Tiezhu's loud voice came from far away, like a thunderclap in Yu Congcong's ears, scaring her so much that she trembled violently and almost stumbled and fell.

"Congcong, what are you doing..." Tiezhu saw Yu Congcong making a "hush" gesture to him, and quickly shut his mouth. He reached out and picked up Yu Congcong, and walked forward with big strides. "Congcong, why are you getting lighter again?" Tiezhu said with a strange look on his face. Yu Congcong looked down at himself and found that he was indeed much better than when he first came. His face had gained weight, his hair was no longer so dull, and he was much taller. How could he get lighter?

"I'm not lighter, it's you who's practicing martial arts that's made you stronger." Yu Congcong responded. During this period, Tiezhu practiced martial arts very hard. Grandpa said that Tiezhu and Yu Congcong should go to school in another village together. He wanted to protect Congcong, so he had to become stronger.

"Tiezhu, what does Fu Hu want to talk to grandpa about?" Yu Congcong asked curiously.

"Hey, Sixth Grandma heard that Tongzhu wanted Xixi to be his wife. She also had the idea and wanted Xixi to be Uncle Yuanbao's wife. As a result, Wuzi also joined in the fun and wanted Xixi to be his sister-in-law. Oh, it's such a mess!" Tiezhu said with emotion. Yu Congcong was also a little speechless.

"Box, what was Xixi's life like in her previous two lives?" Yu Congcong asked curiously.

"Host, Xixi had no interactions with the villagers in her first life, and died while saving Xiaonan in her second life." The system continued. Alas, this second female supporting role is quite miserable. I must choose a good home for her in this life.

The sun was shining, Tiezhu hugged the lush greenery tightly, and hurried to the front of the temple. The place had already been crowded with villagers, and there were whispers from the crowd.

"What on earth is Widow Wang thinking? She only has this one son, yet she still wants to look for someone else's leftovers!" A woman with a pointed mouth said loudly with a look of contempt on her face.

"That's right. It really brings shame to the clan leader!" Fu Xing, the old bachelor, echoed with a smug look on his face.

"What's there to argue about with a little girl who hasn't grown up yet? Sixth Aunt is so blind!" Liu Yuer's words were sarcastic and made people feel unhappy.

"Yes, my second sister-in-law doesn't agree. What's the point of messing around with the copper pillar?" Fu Jun instructed his wife.

"What do you know? My second sister-in-law didn't agree, but mother agreed." Liu Yuer lowered her voice and said in a low voice.

"How can mother agree? There will be another liar girl in the family who only knows how to eat. No, wife, go talk to second sister-in-law and make her firmly disagree." Fu Jun whispered in Liu Yuer's ear.

"Tiezhu, Tongzhu's uncle and aunt are trying to sabotage us. Go find grandma!" Yu Congcong complained angrily. Humph, why do you, the uncle, need to intervene whether they agree or not? These two are really annoying. Grandma often has a headache because of their laziness. Besides, Liu Yuer has bullied sister Daya. I've seen it twice. Yu Congcong thought indignantly in her heart.

"Okay," the two walked briskly towards the Third Grandma. The Third Grandma was sitting under the eaves, and Tongzhu stood beside her obediently. The clan leader Grandpa also came and sat at the door of the ancestral hall. The Third Grandma was talking to Xixi in a gentle tone. Xixi held Xiaonan's hand and lowered her head, listening. Fu Wu and a group of children stood beside Xixi.

Widow Wang echoed anxiously, her face full of anxiety. She patiently advised, "Yes, Xixi, he is a boy after all. Many families really need boys to carry on the family line, so they adopted him. If you follow him, they won't welcome you. They may be dependent on you now, but it will be fine after a while. Besides, you are still young, so there is no problem living together. When you grow up, you will not be related by blood, and people will gossip about you."

Yu Congcong listened quietly and felt that what Widow Wang said made sense. She thought that human nature could not stand the test. This village had too many unpleasant memories for Xiaonan. It might be a good choice to leave for a new environment and slowly forget about this place.

"Besides, it's not good for a little girl like you to live alone. You are still young and don't know a lot of things. There are some things that women simply can't do. You don't have any relatives in the village, and asking anyone for help will cause gossip. It would be different if you married Yuanbao from my family. My family is simple, unlike some families with complicated populations, where there are a lot of elders suppressing you, and the men are young. If you go to their family, you will only be destined to be a slave." Widow Wang said sarcastically without any expression.

Ah, what Sixth Grandma said makes a lot of sense! Although I don't have a bad impression of Third Grandma's family, marrying into Third Grandma's family seems to be just like what Sixth Grandma said. It's better not to let Tiezhu complain, Third Grandma's family is indeed not as good as Sixth Grandma's family.

"Tiezhu, don't tell Third Grandma Tongzhu about Uncle Third's sabotage." Yu Congcong whispered into Tiezhu's ear.

Tiezhu asked quietly, "Why? Then wouldn't Tongzhu have no hope?"

"Tongzhu and Xixi are not suitable. Tongzhu is too young. Let's not get involved and let Xixi make her own choice." Yu Congcong explained patiently. Tiezhu nodded, not quite understanding.
