Chapter 235 - 235 A Pure-Minded Girl
235 A Pure-Minded Girl
It was a great comfort, if you could have someone who felt sorry for you.
Ding Xiang sighed inwardly. She was a lady born in a big family, and yet she had such a simple mind.
Fearing that she would not believe her, Qiao Xuan said in a small voice, “Let me tell you something but please don’t tell anyone else. My lineal mother is not kind either and I felt really sorry for you when I saw you being treated like that.”
This lady was so simple-minded!
Ding Xiang replied involuntarily. “Lucky that you ran into me, but let me tell you, poor people are never kind! Those farmers are too poor to think about justice and fairness. They are just greedy and private, so never be too kind or feel sorry for others, otherwise you will get yourself in a lot of trouble, alright?”
Qiao Xuan was startled. “…”
What was she talking about? Did she think that she was an innocent, pure-minded rich girl?
Qiao Xuan chuckled in her heart. She was not pure-minded! She could be quite ruthless!
But she found Ding Xiang getting more and more interesting!
Seeing Qiao Xuan’s seemingly surprised look, Ding Xiang explained little by little. “Look at what you did tonight… I am locked here because I have been punished. You delivered food to me and if you don’t help me do what I ask of you, I may threaten you about telling everyone else about your deeds. As a result, you will land into trouble for saving me here!”
Qiao Xuan. “…”
“I understand what you mean. But I know you won’t! Don’t worry, I am not that gullible, and I never show kindness to others easily!”
Ding Xiang smiled. “How do you know I won’t!”
Qiao Xuan was speechless. She could not explain it.
“Just a feeling. My sixth sense is always right!”
“What feeling?”
“Just an intuition!”
“…”
Anyway, they needed to drop the topic.
“You should never be this nosy any more, got it?”
“Oh…”
“Oh yes,” Qiao Xuan switched to the embarrassing topic, “What are your plans for the future?”
Future?
Ding Xiang sneered. At this juncture, she wasn’t even sure whether she would have a future!
She had understood clearly that she alone could not fight against a family, especially since she was born in this era.
She was called jinxed by her family and was even considered as immoral. Now, she was starving in the locked ancestral hall.
Maybe she would be forced into marriage and the only thing she could do to fight against that was to die.
Qiao Xuan thought for a while and tried to persuade her. “I believe that if you want to achieve something, you should not lunge at it. You can try to take a roundabout. For example, you embarrassed your grandparents today, that would irritate them more. You will end up being in trouble again and again if you fail to bring them to your side…”
Qiao Xuan was really curious whether this stubborn personality girl would have a flourishing future like she had foreseen?
But she had developed some feelings towards this girl and would like to give her a hand.
Moreover, when she heard some details about Fifth Grandma Ding from Ms. Fang, Qiao Xuan believed that Ding Xiang was really unlucky to have been born in a family like that.
