Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 915: 225: This is too amazing!

Liu Father always felt there was something fishy about this matter without seeing the actual item.

How could it be such a coincidence that they had just arrived in Beijing and already seen that bracelet?

"Dad! How could I possibly have seen it wrong?" Liu Ru shook Liu Father, "Dad, just believe me! That is definitely our family’s heirloom! My aunt is now in Beijing; let’s go find her quickly!"

"What did the young girl you saw look like?" Liu Father continued to ask, "Does she resemble your aunt? How old is she approximately?"

Hearing this, Liu Mother covered her mouth in surprise, "Could it be that she remarried?"

Liu Father furrowed his brows slightly, "Based on my understanding of her, she’s not the type to remarry casually, but you can never be too sure about these things."

It had been so many years, and much had become a blur in Liu Father’s mind.

After thinking hard, Liu Ru spoke, "That despicable girl seemed about eighteen or nineteen, pretty...okay looking, I guess! But I feel she doesn’t look like my aunt when she was younger."

Liu Ru was very vain, always considering herself the world’s number one beauty; there truly weren’t many people who could gain her approval of being okay looking.

Hearing her say this, Liu Parents knew that the young girl must be exceptionally attractive.

"Eighteen or nineteen?" Liu Mother said with a smile, "Your aunt is about the same age as your dad this year; she couldn’t possibly have a daughter that young."

Women are different from men.

Women go through menopause around the age of fifty, after which they can no longer have children.

As long as a man is physically strong, even at eighty or ninety, he still has the ability to father children.

"Right, are there any relatives left on her mother’s side?" Liu Mother nudged Liu Father with her elbow.

Relatives?

Liu Father scratched his head, then said, "In that era, even if she had a few relatives, I doubt they would have survived."

A few decades earlier was the time for denouncing the bourgeois.

"Then who could that young girl be?" Liu Mother went on, "Could it be that she fell on hard times and had to sell the bracelet?"

"Sell? I think it’s more likely she stole it," Liu Ru said, curling her lip.

Liu Father added, "We can’t jump to conclusions yet. By the way, Xiaoru, where does that young girl live? Let’s go have a look now."

In the years of denouncing the bourgeois, privately hoarding gold and jewelry was forbidden.

Gold and jewelry were worth less than scrap metal; back then, many people couldn’t even trade a gold bar for a bowl of white rice, and if you were caught trading privately, you would be labeled a speculator.

So, the likelihood of theft was not high.

Although Liu Father was old, he wasn’t confused.

"I don’t know where she lives," Liu Ru said, "That worthless girl had no manners at all! Ask her one question and she’d explode like she’d swallowed gunpowder! She even pushed me to the ground! I’ve never seen such a person in my life! If she had been on Bay Island, she wouldn’t have gotten away with it!"

If it were on Bay Island, who would dare provoke her?

Only someone with a death wish.

Liu Father continued, "It could also be a relative from her family. She’s alone now, getting on in years, so it wouldn’t be strange for her to have given the items to a family member. Right, Xiaoru, you need to change this temperament of yours. Don’t just throw around accusations, calling everyone a despicable girl. If that bracelet really belongs to your aunt, then she’s our relative."

As he finished, Liu Father also warned, "Besides, this is Beijing, which is different from our Bay Island. If you truly offend some noble person, even I might not be able to protect you."

Taiwan Island is just a small island.

But this is Beijing!

The total area of Bay Island is about the same size as Beijing, but Beijing is only one percent of China.

A hundred Bay Islands cannot compare to one China.

So, it’s necessary to keep a low profile when the time calls for it.

"I know, I know," Liu Ru replied nonchalantly and then said, "Dad, since we’re sure that aunt is in Beijing, let’s hurry and find her! She’ll definitely be so happy to see us!"

Liu Father did not speak.

Liu Mother said, "Exactly, exactly! Xiaoru, you’re right, we need to find your aunt as soon as possible."

Liu Ru went on, "Dad, would you be able to give me that bracelet when the time comes?"

She had taken a liking to the beautiful bracelet at first glance.

Liu Mother said with a smile, "Of course, we’ll give it to you! Your dad and I have only you for a daughter. Who else would we give it to if not you?"
