In the bustling train station, Gu Zi’s attention was predominantly fixated on Su Le, while a small fraction of her awareness remained on the items she had purchased.

She knew she had to stay vigilant, especially in a city rife with thieves during this era.

She had just bought a succulent roast duck when she suddenly found herself the target of two individuals.

Finally finding a moment of respite as they boarded the bus, Gu Zi leaned back in her seat.

The middle-aged woman seated in front of them turned around, revealing a set of uneven teeth as she inquired, “Miss, are you heading to the countryside to visit your relatives?”

The people in the city were really rich. They brought a multitude of gifts to their rural kin, even roast duck, of all things.

However, she felt that the child in this woman’s arms looked exceedingly familiar.

And then it clicked. “Isn’t this the child from Little Su’s family in Daqing Village? Who are you?” the middle-aged woman asked inquisitively.

The woman with crooked teeth scrutinized Gu Zi, recalling the stories she had heard in recent days.

Rumors had it that Su Shen’s family had welcomed a city-dwelling wife, and this lady before her was likely the one.

She was as pretty as a flower.

This bus was going to Daqing Village. Gu Zi quickly understood that this auntie was from Su Shen’s hometown, and that was why she recognized Su Le. “I’m Gu Zi. I’m here to marry Mr. Su. I’m staying at his residence now.”

Auntie Crooked Teeth nodded with a knowing smile. “That’s wonderful. You’re as beautiful and generous as they say. But I must have a word with you.”

She gestured towards Gu Zi’s two large bags of supplies and a concerned expression crossed her face. “Don’t take offense, dear, but you seem quite extravagant. The women in our village are thrifty. Now that you’re a part of our village, you should learn to be frugal.”

The passengers in the bus had become intrigued and now had their eyes on the conversation.

She was still so extravagant and wasteful. She was just trying to spend as much money as she could when she saw that Little Su could earn money.

There was a heated discussion on the bus.

Gu Zi maintained her composure and responded with a smile, “Auntie, you’ve misunderstood. I used the money from selling my job to purchase these items. You’re absolutely right; now that I’m married to Su Shen, I can’t continue my city job. So, I sold it.”

Auntie Crooked Teeth found herself at a loss for words.

Her intention had been to impart a valuable lesson to this newcomer to their village, but she had inadvertently given Gu Zi a platform to shine.
