Rebirth of a Village Girl novel Chapter 532

Chapter 532: 143: Arrived in M Country, seeking medical help_2

Influenced by the invasion war, M Country was much more prosperous than China during this period.

Standing on the streets of Miami, Ni Yang had the illusion of returning to the future world.

Being a coastal city, tall coconut trees were planted on both sides of the highway, along with wide tar roads, and youths in mini ultra-short skirts, and denim attires with dirty braids.

This was the first time Ni Cuihua had seen foreigners.

Holding Little Ni Yun, she softly asked Ni Yang, “Yangyang, why are some foreigners so black and some are so white?”

Ni Yang explained, “M Country became independent in 1776. Before that, it was a colony of Y Country, populated by the descendants of people from Y Country, D Country, F Country, and Spain. These descendants all have white skin. But at this time, black people from F Continent were shipped to North America by European colonizers to be slaves on southern plantations. These people are the ancestors of Africans in M Country, so black people usually don’t have much status in M Country.”

Even in the future, M Country still had very serious racial discrimination.

Ni Cuihua nodded, “Oh, I see.”

“Mom, let’s hail a cab in front.” Ni Yang held a suitcase in one hand, and Ni Cuihua’s arm in the other.

There were many taxis on the streets of M Country.

Ni Yang quickly flagged one down.

The driver, a blonde, blue-eyed white man, was planning to overcharge Ni Yang when he saw that she and Ni Cuihua were Asians. However, Ni Yang’s first words made him eat his words.

Ni Yang spoke fluent and authentic American English, even more standard than the broadcasters on the radio, “Please go to Arizona’s Peggi Li Hotel.”

“Alright.” The driver was stunned for a moment, and then started the engine, abandoning his plan to overcharge Ni Yang smoothly.

Both Ni Cuihua and Little Ni Yun dozed off after sitting on the plane for more than ten hours.

On the road, the driver, out of curiosity, asked, “Excuse me, ladies, can I ask which country you are coming from? R country or H country?”

Ni Yang gave a faint smile, “None of the above.”

None of the above?

The driver was taken aback. If it’s none of the above, where are they from? He remembered that’s what Asians look like.

“We’re from China.” Ni Yang continued.

“China?” The driver expressed in surprise.

Going blind was one thing, now she couldn’t even understand what they were saying.

“They speak English. It’s normal for you not to understand.”

“Is English easy to learn?” Ni Cuihua asked.

“Would you like to learn?”

“I want to give it a try.” Humans only realize how insignificant they are when they get out and see the world.

Ni Yang laughed, “If summarised, English has just 26 letters, which is a lot simpler than Chinese. If you want to learn it, I can teach you when we return home.”

Starting to learn English seriously is much easier than Chinese. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

English words are simple, unlike Chinese words, which have multiple pronunciations, homophones, simplified characters, borrowed words, and so on…

The current Chinese character library contains 91,251 characters. In contrast, English has just 26 letters.

“Okay.” Ni Cuihua nodded.

They smoothly booked a double bedroom at the front desk, and the attendant led the mother and daughter to their sea-view room on the fifth floor.
