Rebirth of a Village Girl Chapter 891 221 She died

Chapter 891: 221: She died! Chapter 891: 221: She died! The newspaper date was from a summer 25 years ago.

August 9th.

At that time, newspapers were still black and white, because there was no PS Mosaic technology, so one could clearly see the infant girl’s features and clothes.

The infant girl even wore two golden bracelets.

From this, it could be deduced that the infant came from a wealthy family.

Ni Yang slightly furrowed her brows, folded up the newspaper, and looked back at Du, “Brother Du, may I borrow this newspaper for a moment?”

Du didn’t directly answer Ni Yang’s request but said instead, “e here for a moment.”

Ni Yang walked over.

Du looked down at the chess game, which had reached a deadlock, his brow furrowed deeply, “What do you think the black piece should do next?”

On the chessboard, the black and white pieces were equally matched, each not willing to concede a step, clearly having reached a mutually destructive scenario.

Du was truly a mystical person, playing against himself and still managing to create such a situation.

Ni Yang leaned slightly forward, a strand of black hair slipping from beside her ear, her pale fingertips picked up a sparkling, translucent black piece, obsidian shining under the light, accentuating her already fair fingertips, at that moment resembling top-grade mutton fat jade, as she placed the piece in the center of the board.

Just one move.

The situation on the board shifted instantly!

Finding new hope when all seemed lost.

A flash of surprise flickered in Du’s eyes, then he raised his hand and placed a white piece.

What had been a hopeful situation reversed in an instant.

Life was like chess, and chess mirrored life.

Ni Yang lightly curled her lips, casually picking up a black piece and gently tapping it onto the board.

Click.

The sound of the obsidian piece falling onto the Jade Chessboard was particularly pleasant.

“You’ve lost,” Ni Yang lightly lifted her gaze.

Du sighed, “Yes, I’ve lost.”

He had pondered over the game for a long time, thinking it unsolvable, yet Ni Yang resolved it with merely two pieces.

It was uncertain whether he was too foolish, or if Ni Yang was too clever.

“This is what they call ‘the observer sees clearer’. By the way, may I borrow this newspaper for a few days?” Ni Yang lifted the newspaper in her hand.

Du had asked what she needed it for, then slightly nodded, “Take it.”

“Thank you,” Ni Yang continued, “Believing in Buddhism, chanting scriptures, raising birds, collecting newspapers—Brother Du, your hobbies are quite extensive.”

“Overpraised,” Du replied in a tone lacking emotion.

As he spoke, Du continued, “By the way, ever since that time, your Duoduo has almost e here every day.”

“Really?” Ni Yang was somewhat surprised.

She had thought that the experience had left a profound shadow in Duoduo’s heart, and that Duoduo would never e here again.

After all, even though Duoduo was a bird, it held grudges even better than humans.

Du nodded.

“The weather’s nice outside today, not too hot, and there’s a breeze. Would you like to go out for a walk?” When Ni Yang arrived, she heard from the butler that Du hadn’t left his house in several days.

Du lifted his head and glanced outside, “Then let’s stroll in the garden.”

Ni Yang tucked the newspaper into her bag, “Sounds good.”

The two of them walked out one after the other.

At this season, the garden was bursting with flowers, the gentle breeze carrying wafts of floral scent, making for a refreshing walk among the blooming flowers.

After a round, Ni Yang felt something was missing, “Where’s Sister Jiaojiao?”

Usually, when she visited De Ming Xuan, Du Jiaojiao would always be present.

“She might be in her room,” Du suggested.

At the same time, the assistant following Du quietly slipped away.

“Oh,” Ni Yang nodded slightly.

Just then, a black shadow flew over from a distance, “Yangyang!”

Ni Yang looked up and smiled, “Duoduo!”

“Yangyang!” Duoduo flew straight to Ni Yang’s shoulder, rubbing its small head against her chin.

After throwing a small tantrum, Duoduo looked at Du, “You little bastard.”

Ni Yang gently tapped Duoduo’s head, “Duoduo, you can’t be so rude.”

“You little bastard!”

Ni Yang slightly furrowed her brows, “Son, if you continue being rude like this, Mum won’t give you treats anymore.”

“You little bastard!”

Ni Yang slightly squinted her eyes, furiously glaring, “Say it again!”

“You little bastard!”

“You’re getting bold,” Ni Yang poked Duoduo’s small head sternly, “Try saying it again!”

“You little bastard.”

Ni Yang was infuriated.

Du glanced sideways at Ni Yang, a faint smile playing on his lips, “It’s just a bird, why bother stooping to its level?”

Ni Yang, feeling somewhat embarrassed, said, “It es here every day, surely it isn’t just to curse at you? I swear, I didn’t teach it anything!”
