Rebirth in 1980: The Farm Wife Makes a Comeback
Chapter 163: Leaving

Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Leaving

"Granny knows, Granny knows," Granny Lu said with a heartache, stroking Qin Xiangnuan’s hair, "Granny knows your dad won’t let you off easily. Since you are here, it’s inevitable that they won’t resort to some means. Granny is just worried that you might suffer, so let’s hide first, anywhere is fine, Granny will let you decide. Once they can’t find you here, they will give up. Wait a few years, after Wang Dali has married a wife, then you can come back."

Qin Xiangnuan was worried about Granny Lu, who was getting on in years, and she felt uneasy,

"Granny, how about you come with me? When I went to Capital City with my brother years ago, I even bought a house. It’s enough for us to live."

"Hehe..." Granny Lu chuckled and tousled Qin Xiangnuan’s hair, "Granny won’t go with you. It’s quite nice here, and there’s Granny Hua too. Plus, our stall here is making good money, Granny is reluctant to leave it. Granny will earn more money here and save it for Nuannuan’s dowry, okay?"

Qin Xiangnuan didn’t respond, but turned her head and asked Qin Xiangyang beside her, hoping he could persuade Granny Lu further.

"Sister, you go ahead and don’t worry about Granny. Don’t you still have me?" Qin Xiangyang grinned, "Brother knows you have some connections in Capital City, and you have a house there, and Brother Jian is there too. Granny and I will earn money to support you, don’t be afraid."

He actually felt it was better for his sister to go out.

Even if it was just to hide, hiding for a year or two would be fine.

Now he understood his sister’s temperament; she was competent and intelligent. She wouldn’t let herself be treated unfairly, as long as there were no Hu Li and Wang Dali, she would definitely live well. Actually, he had plans too, just that he hadn’t told his sister yet. After his sister settled down there, then he would tell her the rest.

These days, that shadow outside seemed to lurk nearby from time to time. Qin Xiangnuan thought, if it wasn’t for reliving her life, she might have been driven to a mental breakdown.

"Nuannuan, here, take this," Granny Lu handed her a large bundle of money, "Use these, don’t skimp, Granny has money."

"Granny, I have money too," Qin Xiangnuan stuffed the money back to Granny Lu. It was a lot of money, probably several thousand. She needed to be extra careful if she was taking this money on the train. Her bankbook was safe, and she could withdraw money when needed.

Moreover, she could set up a stall in Capital City. She had skills and wasn’t afraid of hardships; would she ever starve herself?

But in the end, Granny Lu still gave her the money. Qin Xiangnuan asked Qin Xiangyang to deposit it into her bankbook. She only carried some spare change and packed her things overnight. She also bought a train ticket. Initially, Qin Xiangyang wanted to go with her, but Qin Xiangnuan refused. She was sixteen, legally an adult, and could travel alone.

She left Ning City unnoticed, carrying her luggage, taking the train to Capital City.

After spending two days and nights on the train, her back was almost breaking. But thinking about getting away from Hu Li and Wang Dali gave her an indescribable sense of relief. It was just unfortunate that Granny Lu and her big brother didn’t accompany her; otherwise, it might have been even more enjoyable.

She could understand, though.

Granny Lu liked a stable life, and she was quite comfortable living in Huatiang Village. Leaving might not necessarily be better, and there was also Granny Hua to chat with every day, setting up a stall together. Both old ladies had similar life experiences, they had plenty to talk about. It was indeed much better than accompanying her to this unfamiliar place.
