Chapter 4: IV. Going to the Countryside Chapter 4: IV. Going to the Countryside Blue sky and white clouds hung above, the sun hung high in the sky, scorching the earth with its fiery rays. Among the green, lush paddy fields, farmers wearing straw hats and with trouser legs rolled up were bent over, plucking seedlings from the ground.

A black car drove up from the distance, speeding past the concrete path beside the fields, leaving behind a trail of flying dust before disappearing into the distant village.

In front of a small farmhouse, an elderly couple with graying temples and dressed in plain clothes stood outside the courtyard, craning their necks toward the direction of the village entrance as if they were waiting for someone.

“Old man, what do you think is going through Xinxin’s mind? What does it matter if her child is a little ugly? She’s a mother herself, how can she bear to abandon her own child?” Li Meixiang couldn’t help but feel angry thinking about the phone call two days ago.

“You know how stubborn Xinxin is. If we don’t agree, she’ll surely give the child to someone else to raise. It’s all our fault for spoiling her too much when she was young; we’ve spoiled her rotten,” Yang Lisheng became angrier the more he spoke, but what use was his anger?

He had said everything he wanted to say over the phone two days ago, even losing his temper, but no matter how much he pleaded or scolded, Xinxin was adamant about not wanting the child. With no other choice, he had agreed to let her send the child over. That child was his granddaughter; how could he bear to let his daughter give her to someone else?

“Here they come,” Li Meixiang said, spotting Song Yufeng’s car approaching and stepping forward to meet it. Despite being angry, they still had to receive their son-in-law.

Song Yufeng pulled up, pushed open the car door, and got out, “Dad! Mom!” Truth be told, he felt really embarrassed, and even more so, guilty toward his daughter.

“Hmm!” Yang Lisheng gave a faint nod of his head. Xinxin was unreasonable, but Yufeng should have advised her; instead, he let her have her way. And the Song family, they had all agreed as well. He really didn’t understand what was more important, face or family affection?
