"Why are you making such a fuss! Keep your voice down! That girl needs to rest!" Aunt Zhang treated the wound of the woman in the house. After bandaging it, she hurriedly opened the curtain, put her hands on her hips, and glared at the village chief.
After the village chief was shouted at by her, he suddenly became quiet. He dared not speak out in anger, but said weakly: "Aren't I worried..."
"What are you worried about? How can a weak woman like her make a huge difference?" Aunt Zhang glared at the village chief.
When Ah Cai saw his mother taking action, he became disheartened. Outside, it was his father who always had the final say, but at home, it was his mother who had the final say. Even his father would sometimes be scolded by her to the point of being so angry that he dared not speak out.
However, my mother is generally very reasonable and fair, so the brothers and sisters also have a sense of awe towards her.
"Then, wait until she wakes up and let her leave quickly!" The village chief was defeated again, glared angrily, shouted with lack of confidence, then turned on his heels and returned to the room.
"Mom, how is she?" Seeing that the village chief had left, Ah Cai hurriedly asked Aunt Zhang.
"Don't worry, this girl is lucky. She fell down from such a high place and only scratched her head. There is nothing else serious. She will probably wake up tomorrow." Aunt Zhang glanced at the back room and winked at Ah Cai.
He blushed in embarrassment.
"Well, let me go and take a look. Mom, please rest first!" After saying that, Ah Cai turned around and entered the house.
Aunt Zhang sighed, smiled slightly, and walked to the village chief's house.
In this room, Ah Cai picked up a girl and came back. In the other room, Chen Shaoxuan and Li Xueyan were restless in the room.
Thinking about the commotion at the entrance of the village, they always felt uneasy in their hearts.
"Fifth Senior Brother, I'd better go take a look. Judging from what Brother Acai just said, it seems that the people coming are not Leng Changxi and the others. What if they are chasing troops?" Li Xueyan asked worriedly, frowning.
"Well, you wait here, I'll go take a look and then come back." Chen Shaoxuan's heart was heavy and he didn't trust Li Xueyan to take the risk, so he naturally decided to go by himself.
Taking a deep breath, he gathered his thoughts, slowly opened the door, and then walked into the desolate courtyard. He heard a rustling of footsteps coming from outside the courtyard.
He stopped, held his breath, narrowed his eyes, clenched his fists at his sides, and looked cautiously at the broken gate of the desolate courtyard.
"Creak -" with a sound, the fence door was slowly pushed open from the outside.
A familiar figure stood coldly at the door, and Chen Shaoxuan's eyes suddenly flashed with coldness.
"Mr. Chen, it seems that we are really destined. I didn't expect to see each other here!" The person who came was none other than Zhao Yuan. He was wearing a black robe with gold silk dragon patterns and a jade crown on his head.
His handsome face was cold and his eyes looked at Chen Shaoxuan with cold eyes.
"It turns out to be Mr. Yuan. It's really unexpected that you and I can meet in this mountain col. It's really rare!" Chen Shaoxuan looked at the person clearly, squinted his eyes, and curled up with a sarcastic sneer at the corner of his lips, calmly circling around.
.
"It's better to meet by chance. Mr. Chen, wouldn't you please come in and have a seat?" Zhao Yuan glanced at the dilapidated house behind him. In the faint candlelight, he seemed to see a figure, and his heart suddenly rose to his chest.
, slightly excited.
Earlier, when Zhao Yuan heard the news that Chen's Jiaozi Shop was empty, he became furious and personally took people to the backyard of Chen's Jiaozi Shop. They searched everything inside and out, but could not find any trace.
It occurred to me that they might have taken advantage of the mourning opportunity to escape from the city.
So, while he ordered people to search the mountain, he personally led the people to chase him out of the city. After calmly analyzing, he chose the mountain road to Jinzhou without hesitation.
Sure enough, they had heard earlier that a man and a woman had moved into Lijiacun. Zhao Yuan hurried to Lijiacun.
"It's late at night, I'm afraid it's a little inconvenient. How about I personally invite Mr. Yuan to you another day?" Chen Shaoxuan quietly looked at Zhao Yuan. When he saw a touch of indigo under his eyes, he knew that this man might have been searching all day long.
their whereabouts.
When Zhao Yuan heard his refusal, he immediately narrowed his eyes. A surge of resentment built up in his heart, and he immediately concluded that the person in the room must be Leng Changxi. So, he stopped pretending to be polite and snorted coldly: "Chen Shaoxuan, we
Why don't you open the skylight and speak frankly, you know the purpose of my coming!"
"Excuse me for being ignorant, does Mr. Yuan's purpose have anything to do with me, Chen?" Chen Shaoxuan sarcastically said, his mood was complicated towards the man in front of him who had hurt Leng Changxi so deeply, and he was resentful at the same time.
On the other hand, he was grateful. If Zhao Yuan hadn't let go of Leng Changxi's hand first, Chen Shaoxuan might have never had the chance to get close to Leng Changxi in his life. He could only watch her happiness from a distance, while he spent his time in sadness.
rest of life.
"Chen Shaoxuan, you don't have to make any detours for me. My purpose has always been simple. I think you know it! Xiao Bao'er is my fiancée, so please hand her over!" Zhao Yuan couldn't find Leng Chang because she could not find her.
Xi's usually gentle temperament turned cold as frost. Zhao Yuan naturally understood Chen Shaoxuan's sarcastic words. Because of this, he became even more angry, and at the same time, he felt uneasy in his heart.
"Master Yuan, what you said makes no sense. Why do you come here to ask for someone every time you can't find little Bao'er? Besides, I heard that your current fiancée should be Guo Wanrou, the daughter of the Guo family.
That's right. By calling an unmarried woman your fiancée so brazenly, have you ruined the girl's reputation?" Chen Shaoxuan sneered with a cold look on his lips.
Zhao Yuan's hand on his side was slightly bent, and his veins were pulsing. He wanted to argue, but found that his words were so pale and weak.
There was a strong sinister look in his eyes. He took a deep breath and lightly opened Zhao Yuan's thin lips: "You have to befriend this person today, and you must be friends with him even if you don't be!"
After saying that, he gathered wind in his palm and quickly struck at Chen Shaoxuan's facade.
Chen Shaoxuan turned around, dodged the fatal palm, and then struck a fatal punch.
After several rounds, neither of them gained any advantage, and Zhao Yuan was still blocked outside the gate by Chen Shaoxuan.
"Fifth Senior Brother, what's going on? It's so noisy?" Just when the two were about to start fighting again, the door behind Chen Shaoxuan slowly opened, and Li Xueyan's voice came from the house. Then she walked from the house to the courtyard and glanced at
Then he saw Zhao Yuan and frowned unhappily: "Why is this person always haunting?"
Zhao Yuan was startled for a moment. He glanced at Li Xueyan in disbelief and suddenly changed his face, but it was not because of her words. Zhao Yuan looked at Zhao Yuan fiercely: "What on earth did you do to Xiaobao?"
