Chapter 129: Milk to Drink
This voice was neither loud nor soft, and the village itself was neither too small nor too big; whatever happened in this village, everyone else knew about it. Anyway, everyone was well aware of the scandals within the large Qin Guohua family, and it only made people even less willing to associate with the Qin Family.
Granny Lu let out a sigh upon seeing the empty chicken coop; her hard work in raising them was all gone, how could her heart not ache?
"Granny, it’s alright."
Qin Xiangnuan came over and comforted Granny Lu, "Once we move to our new home, Granny can raise a few more. There’s plenty of space in the new home, Granny can raise them anywhere you like."
"Granny knows," Granny Lu gently ruffled Qin Xiangnuan’s hair, only to realize how much her granddaughter had grown; she was already as tall as her. On Qin Xiangnuan’s face, she saw the resemblance of her own daughter.
"Nuannuan has grown up," she said with a smile mixed with a sense of grievance, yet her heart ached.
"You look a lot like your mom, seeing you feels like seeing your mom come back."
"Really?" Qin Xiangnuan couldn’t help but touch her own face. Did she really look like her mom?
That night, she took a mirror and placed it in front of her for the first time, staring at her face both meticulously and seriously.
The young girl was just beginning to bloom, just like in those lines of poetry: the small lotus reveals its sharp tip, and the dragonfly soon rests upon it. Her facial features were still her old ones, but they had changed quite a bit.
More beautiful, and with a faint scholarly air between her brows and eyes.
Calm, serene, yet tinged with coldness and a trace of grievance.
