When the soldiers left, the women of Ning Family quickly followed. A few wives who liked to watch the show stayed where they were.
Wu Huaishan stood in front of Wu Mei: "Why do you want to say this?"
"Brother, those people are too scary, I'm afraid …" "You're the only one hunting in our village. The people they're looking for come down from the mountains, if …"
Wu Mei said while sobbing, the tears on her face continued to flow, as though she had been shocked out of her wits.
When Wu Huaishan heard Wu Mei's explanation, his heart softened as he turned to look at Ning Yan. "Sister Ning, I'm sorry this time.
"It's fine if you can't make up your mind when something happens to a coward, but are you a woman? "All of them." When Ning Yan said this, he completely forgot that she was also a woman, and continued to speak: "It's just that if I meet with such nonsense in the future, it's fine if the one suffering is not me, but if it's someone else … Aren't you afraid of being the eldest brother of the Wu family? "
Wu Huaishan's face did not look good. In his opinion, since he had already apologized, Ning Yan should have said that it was alright, she should not continue to be so aggressive.
Her attitude towards Ning Yan changed instantly and displeasure appeared in her eyes. She frowned: "Once we go back, her sister-in-law will teach her properly. Lady Ning doesn't need to worry."
Difficult? Heh! Ning Yan laughed. If she really could teach them well, she would make a mistake.
She wasn't blind, so Wu Mei had stood up with the Ning Family family just to identify her. Unfortunately, she was used by the Ning Family for nothing.
He did not know how Elder Mrs. Lee caught hold of Wu Mei and looked at him with scrutiny in her eyes.
Wu Mei shrank back and hid behind Wu Huaishan. In her panic, she pushed's sister-in-law who was supporting him to the ground.
Ning Yan's gaze swept across Wu Huaishan's woman. The woman's surname was Qian, and he was the eldest daughter of the Old Man Qian from the village next door, his figure was thin, his hair was messy and he had a bitter face. Although her clothes were washed cleanly, there were still quite a few patches on them, making his look like a paradise in hell compared to Wu Mei's clothes.
It was also a family with a story.
"I won't trouble you because it's not my sister. However, I must advise the village's aunts and uncles to not offend the Wu family's sister if anything happens to them one day …"
The spectators thought that it was true, and when they glanced at Wu Mei, who was behind Wu Huaishan, their eyes were on guard.
"I don't know how Sister Wu was together with Ning Family today either. It's said that if Ning Family people had slandered me like this in front of the soldiers, I would have been able to guess the reason. But the Wu family's girl, I didn't offend you, right?"
Wu Mei hid behind Wu Huaishan as she was scared stiff. She shook her head fiercely and the tears on her face seemed to have no money, flowing out from her eyes. Her slender hand held onto Wu Huaishan's arm and she sobbed softly: "I was wrong, I know I was wrong, let's go back."
The more Wu Huaishan saw, the more his heart ached. He pushed Wu Mei onto Mrs. Qian and walked in front of him in large strides. "What else do you want to do?
"Is she a little girl? Are you blind? "
Ning Yan reached out her hand and pushed Wu Huaishan onto the haystack in the courtyard. She didn't want to be so close to him, what if his intelligence got affected by something like this.
Wu Huaishan leaned on the haystack, completely stunned. He had fought in the battlefield before, and he had also reaped a few lives.
After leaving the army, he returned home. The men in the village were either lackeys or idle men, thus he became even more pretentious. But now, he was pushed away so easily by a woman.
Old granny Shen who was addicted to spectating, squeezed out from the crowd and threw the handkerchief in her hand: "I'm not blind, Girl Ning, do you want to know why Wu Mei is with Old granny Ning Family? "I know, I know, I know …"
When Wu Mei heard Old Man Shen speak, she immediately stood up from behind Mrs. Qian and said, "Don't speak nonsense."
"I haven't said anything yet, but you already know that I'm spouting nonsense?" Widow Shen covered her mouth and laughed, then walked in front of Ning Yan: "Let me tell you, every time your brother goes to the Academy to study, the Wu family girl would peek at him. If I didn't know that the male and unmarried girl were not married, I would have thought that Wu Girl was going to turn into a mummy."
"You're talking nonsense, you're talking nonsense, it's not like that." Wu Mei shook her head hard.
Even if she liked Ning Qianci, she could not admit it in this kind of situation. She would definitely not be able to marry Ning Qianci if she did not have a reputation, but she had other choices without Ning Qianci.
However, Wu Mei was still young, and even if she was narrow-minded, she could not play with the women in the village who talked dirty all day.
Wu Mei's actions right now were to explain this phrase.
Was it actually like this? When Ning Yan looked at Wu Mei again, there was a hint of teasing in her eyes, but, even if Wu Mei liked Ning Qianci, there would still be no result.
Such a shrewd person like him would never be at peace no matter where he put him.
"It's getting late, I'm going to cook for my son. You guys can do what you want." Ning Yan said, then walked to the door and closed it.
Those who came to watch the show knew that there was no longer any excitement, so they got up and walked out. freew(e)bnovel.com
Finally, there were only three people left in the courtyard.
Wu Mei, Mrs. Qian, and Wu Huaishan.
Wu Huaishan was still in the state of 'who I am, who I am' and 'where I am'. On the other hand, Wu Mei had already calmed down.
Her resentful gaze fell on Mrs. Qian.
"Sister-in-law, why didn't you stop me?" The faint voice contained too many emotions.
Mrs. Qian shook her head and walked towards behind Wu Huaishan.
Ning Yan pushed the person out and closed the door forcefully.
Returning back to the house, Lu Hanzhang was sitting on her bed, holding a fire in his hands. From time to time, he would take a bite: "When did you come out?" Ning Yan asked.
"Those people came out right after they left. You're quite smart to be able to tell that group of people is not right."
"What are you saying? I don't understand."
Ning Yan hurriedly shook her head. She had no future in her life, earning all sorts of money to raise a son.
She had no interest in the things that messed up her life.
Lu Hanzhang shook his head. He wanted to pretend to be stupid, what could he do? Let's do it.
However, he still had some doubts in his heart. How could such a smart woman be robbed by bandits five years ago? Escaping from the hands of a bandit and not soaking himself in cold water, how could he possibly take advantage of the effects of the medicine to seriously injure a patient? No matter how he thought about it, something didn't feel right.
"If you don't want to know, then I won't say it. These people probably won't bother the people so much in the future. Can I see them now?"
During this period of recuperation, aside from contacting his subordinates at night, he did not come out of the courtyard even once. If he were to use a woman's words, it would mean that he had provoked a disaster.
The active space was only a small courtyard, so no matter how he tried, he couldn't contain his emotions.
"Who cares about you?" After saying that, Ning Yan started walking towards the courtyard. She hadn't finished repairing the cotton wool, and there were too many messed up things today that she had forgotten about doing proper business.
