When Pan Panyun saw her, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
After following Zhang Mazi, life was relatively peaceful. But this was not what she wanted. During this period, she tried to leave secretly and tried to deliver a message to her aunt in Jiangcheng. However, she was caught halfway through.
There is still no news from my aunt, and the letters I send are like falling into the sea.
She really had no choice, so she had other thoughts.
But less than a month after that happened, Lou Huiniang came to the door. Did she know something?
Liu Ye knew that there was a grudge between them, but it had been more than half a year, and Lou Huiniang suddenly came again... Will this have any impact on her family?
She couldn't help but say a few more words: "She is quite honest and doesn't go out much recently."
Chu Yunli nodded: "I know."
She walked in directly: "Pan Panyun, do you want me to talk here, or do you want to talk to me alone?"
When Pan Panyun heard this, his expression changed slightly: "Madam, come into the house!"
Zhang Mazi's yard is not big, and Pan Panyun lives in a side room. It is not very exquisite inside, but it has everything it should have. It is much better than Pan Panyun's original house in the Pan family.
Chu Yunli looked around and asked, "Why do you want to sell your yard?"
Pan Panyun lowered his eyes: "There's no need for it. Anyway, I'm the only girl left in the family, and I'm already married, so there's no use keeping it. It's better to exchange some money to make myself more comfortable. I was injured before,
He came to you to ask for money to treat his illness, but you didn't give it... He had a bad temper, and he got very angry when he came back. I was afraid that he would do something to me, so I said on the spot that I would pay him back in the future... and they wouldn't let me
When I go out, I can't even work as a clerk, I can only sell houses."
She spoke these words urgently and quickly. In Chu Yunli's opinion, she was just trying to cover up her guilty conscience.
"Do you know why I came to see you today?"
Pan Panyun looked up at her and shook his head after a while.
Chu Yunli smiled half-heartedly: "I didn't know that what you really like is a middle-aged man. Marrying a Zhang Mazi is not enough, but you also..."
My family knew about their own affairs, and I knew what Pan Panyun did best. When he heard her say this, he immediately panicked and subconsciously interrupted: "Don't talk nonsense."
"Nonsense?" Chu Yunli smiled and said, "What would you do if I told Zhang Mazi about this?"
Pan Panyun was panicked, and her face was filled with tears before she knew it. She opened her mouth, and simply knelt on the ground: "Please let me go, I really know that I was wrong. I haven't been looking for you recently, and I have already
Without those thoughts that I shouldn’t have... just treat me as if I don’t exist, okay?”
Chu Yunli nodded: "Okay!"
Pan Panyun couldn't believe how cheerful she was for a moment. He was stunned for a moment, and the person in front of him had already turned around and left.
Chu Yunli left happily, and Pan Panyun was caught between the two men trying to achieve his goal. It was a daydream.
There is no airtight wall in this world, and everyone around him has sharp eyes. Pan Panyun was interacting with a man like this, so naturally everyone knew about it very quickly.
Of course, Zhang Mazi had a bad temper, and no one dared to talk about it for fear of causing trouble.
But outsiders didn't tell, after the Liu family heard the news, they couldn't help but tell their daughter.
The two children Liu Ye gave birth to after entering the house were not very decent, so Zhang Mazi found another woman to enter the house. She herself was happy to have such a person at home to attract men's hearts, but in the eyes of the Liu family, her daughter
It's so unfair.
"impossible!"
Liu Ye looked unbelieving.
But the fact was that she couldn't help but not believe it.
Mother Liu whispered: "I didn't say that. Everyone in your alley knows it. They are afraid that Mazi will kill someone in anger, so they don't dare to mention it. If you don't believe it, go back and ask."
Liu Ye was not good at making random accusations. She had been married to Zhang Mazi for many years and knew that outsiders’ worries were not false. This made Zhang Mazi anxious, as he might really take someone’s life. So, she made some snacks and started
Give it to the neighbors. Ask about it after entering the house.
Zhou Hongpiben, who was on the other side, was also paying attention to the matter secretly. When he learned that Liu Ye was inquiring, he didn't delay any longer and went to the door that day.
Zhang Mazi was very happy to see his brother coming to the door, and said: "Pan Yun, go buy some food and wine."
Pan Panyun was very panicked, and some of it showed on her face. She lowered her head and wanted to go out.
Liu Ye saw Zhou Hongpi coming to the door and vaguely guessed his purpose: "I'll go, you stay at home to take care of the children."
After the food and wine were served, Zhou Hongpi drank two glasses of wine and began to tell Zhang Mazi about the brotherhood between the two: "We grew up wearing the same pair of trousers, and we even went to the flower house to find a partner together."
Speaking of this, Zhang Mazi was also quite emotional. Of those brothers in childhood, they were the only two who had the deepest affection now. He immediately picked up the wine glasses and clinked them: "We are brothers for life. We must not be estranged in the future. If we meet
If you are in trouble, be sure to tell me if I can help..." After two glasses of wine, he was already drunk and patted his chest: "I will try my best to help you!"
What Zhou Hongpi wanted was what he said, and he drank the wine in the glass: "I have remembered this." Seeing that Zhang Mazi was in high spirits, he glanced at Pan Panyun, who was restless under the eaves: "I still
I really have something I want to discuss with you."
Zhang Mazi was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "You kid, you are going to the palace for nothing. Tell me, what can I do for you, brother?"
"I need a wife." Zhou Hongpi was a little embarrassed: "I want to ask Brother Mazi to help me be a matchmaker."
Zhang Mazi thought thoughtfully: "This matter is not difficult, but there is no suitable candidate for this moment, but don't worry, I am relieved about this matter. I will look for it for you later."
Pan Panyun was very anxious, because she also knew that the secret interactions between the two would not be kept secret for long. If Zhang Mazi knew about it first, she would not know how it would end.
In fact, when she first found Zhou Hongpi, she wanted to take revenge on Zhang Mazi. Later, she found out that Zhou Hongpi was very interested in her, and she had some ideas. She could leave the yard with this man first, and then
Try to think of a way to get to Jiangcheng again. After all, it would be very difficult to get Zhang Mazi to let her go. She would need help.
Zhou Hongpi also knew that Liu Ye was already asking... It was just a matter of a few words for the couple to lie on the same bed at night, and Zhang Mazi would probably know the truth tomorrow, or even this afternoon.
"I think Panyun is fine."
Zhang Mazi laughed and laughed: "That's not possible, that is my woman. A friend's wife should not be bullied. What you said is quite inappropriate."
Zhou Hongpi said seriously: "I really like her. If brother really loves me, let me take care of her!"
Zhang Mazi looked cautious, put down his wine glass, and reached out to Pan Panyun: "Come here."
Pan Panyun was overjoyed. From the interactions between her and Zhou Hongpi, it was obvious that Zhou Hongpi would not do anything to her and was better than Zhang Mazi anyway. It would be better if she could leave and go to Jiangcheng, even if she couldn't leave.
Living with him is more comfortable than being a concubine with Zhang Mazi.
She walked slowly to the front.
Zhang Mazi was sitting, and seeing that she needed to raise her head, she immediately frowned: "Squat down!"
Pan Panyun squatted down.
Zhang Mazi looked at her face, snorted coldly, and slapped her hard.
Pain spread across her cheek, and Pan Panyun realized what had happened. She fell to the ground, and her hands were bruised.
Seeing this, Zhou Hongpi stood up suddenly.
Zhang Mazi looked at the people on the ground and sneered: "You have become my people, but you are still not honest, and you want to seduce my brother and make us brothers hate each other. You are really good. It seems that I still don't control it tightly enough, Liu Ye
, From today on, she is not allowed to go out, and she is not allowed to see anyone! If guests come, let her stay in the house."
The other side of Pan Panyun's red and swollen cheek turned pale. Hearing these words, he suddenly looked up.
Zhang Mazi was already impatient and kicked him: "Get out of the house!"
The drunk man acted rashly, and Pan Panyun was kicked until he bled.
Zhou Hongpi couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward to help her up: "Brother, if you don't tell secrets, I just want her. You can ask for whatever conditions you want!"
Zhang Mazi squinted at him, then looked at the woman who was nestling in Zhou Hongpi's arms after standing up. He dropped the wine glass in his hand and said, "You two have already hooked up?"
No one spoke.
Zhou Hongpi lowered his eyes: "Brother, Panyun is still young and should be taken care of. I can't help you... No matter what kind of request you have, I will try my best to meet it. For you, this is just
It’s just a woman, there are never any shortage of women around you...just treat your brother as a pity brother."
Zhang Mazi sneered, folded his arms and leaned on the back of the chair: "You want me to help you?" He touched his chin: "As you said, I have no shortage of women. This is the one I want to get back to have children. But after half a year
, she doesn’t even want to be touched by me... I like to force people, but over time I get tired of it. Since you want her, for the sake of the brotherhood between us, I can’t refuse."
Upon hearing this, Pan Panyun's face relaxed slightly.
But Zhou Hongpi became more and more wary. The two had grown up together, and he knew Zhang Mazi somewhat. When this person was easy to talk to, he could do anything for him... That's why he found this person to accompany him.
When you drink, you don’t want someone to give it to you after you drink it to make you happy.
But now, this matter is not going well. Zhang Mazi is obviously really angry when he acts like this.
"You two are in love and have to be together. But I don't believe it..." Zhang Mazi's eyes were sharp: "But if you two are really in love with each other, I won't be able to be a bad person who beats the mandarin ducks. Let's do this.
, as long as you two prove your determination to be with each other, I won't stop you."
Pan Panyun was a little panicked.
Zhou Hongpi knew that what happened today was going to be difficult, so he asked, "How do you want me to prove it, brother?"
"Both of you, cut off one hand each." Zhang Mazi smiled and said: "If you are willing to break off your hand and still be with the other person, then it's really hard for me to stop you."
Zhou Hongpi's complexion changed drastically.
Pan Panyun turned pale instantly: "I...I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of?" Zhang Mazi looked at the two of them clinging to each other, and knew in his heart that the two of them must have had a relationship. That's why he was so angry, and said coldly: "You two must break this hand!"
He raised his voice and shouted: "Liu Ye, bring me the knife."
It turned out to be no choice.
Seeing Pan Panyun like this, Zhou Hongpi knew that she was extremely scared and said, "I shouldn't have such thoughts. Brother, just pretend that I didn't say anything about what happened today."
"That won't work." Zhang Mazi said reluctantly: "It's not like nothing happened to you two. You are smart, but don't think of me as a fool! Unless you two are not complacent, this hand will definitely be cut off!
"
Liu Ye was most afraid of such a situation, but she did not dare to disobey Zhang Mazi's wishes and stepped forward tremblingly with a knife in hand.
Zhou Hongpi was the first to take it, but hesitantly.
The atmosphere in the yard was solemn. Pan Panyun couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "I am not yours, why do you treat me like this? I just want to leave with him today...ah..."
Before she finished speaking, she received another slap. The force was so strong that two of her teeth were knocked out. She screamed and fell to the ground.
Zhang Mazi slapped him, but he still didn't feel relieved. He chased after him and wanted to hit him.
Seeing this, Zhou Hongpi said: "Brother, don't hit her!"
After saying that, he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, exerted force on his hands, and in the next moment, blood poured out.
Where has Pan Panyun ever seen such a battle?
He immediately rolled his eyes and fainted.
Zhou Hongpi squeezed her wrist tightly in pain and said with a trembling voice, "Is it okay?"
Zhang Mazi looked at the severed hand on the ground and emphasized: "This is of your own free will."
"Yes!" Zhou Hongpi said solemnly: "Please help me, big brother."
"I'll help you!" Zhang Mazi looked at the sleeping Pan Panyun on the ground and said, "This woman has never been honest. Now that you have broken a hand, do you think she will dislike you? She always wanted to
When I ran to Jiangcheng, I kept a close eye on people, but she ended up looking for you... Brother, you are so blind, even if you fall in love with Liu Ye, it would be better than looking for her! I just hope you don't regret it!"
He didn't insist on cutting off Pan Panyun's hand, but just watched Zhou Hongpi and others leave the yard with cold eyes.
Pan Panyun wanted to leave a long time ago, but he knew he couldn't keep him. He also thought that the two of them had such a fate, and if she still couldn't get pregnant after a while, he would let her go. But in the end, she came up with this
There is a way to do it.
If she dares to steal someone behind his back, can he spare her?
Zhou Hongpi only took her away after breaking a hand. If she wanted to leave... that would be a daydream.
When Pan Panyun woke up, she saw an unfamiliar window. Then she remembered what happened before she fell into coma, and her face turned pale again.
"Pan Yun, how are you?"
Pan Panyun looked around and saw an aunt next door. She was a little nervous: "Where is this?"
"This is the Zhou family. It was Hongpizi who brought you back. He... broke one of his hands. He fainted soon after he came back. He hasn't woken up yet." The aunt sighed: "There is no food at home.
There is no medicine, so you'd better hire a doctor for him."
Pan Panyun: "..."
The reason why she didn't invite her must be because she didn't give her any money. Zhang Mazi confiscated most of the money she got from selling the house, leaving only a few bits and pieces. He immediately took out some and said, "Can you please help me, ma'am?"
When the aunt left, she hurriedly got up and got out of bed. After dressing herself, she stumbled out of the house and quickly disappeared into the alley.
Zhou Hongpi lost too much blood and fell unconscious for two days before waking up. When he woke up, he found that the yard was empty and he was alone.
He got up and walked to the yard. The door opened and the aunt walked in: "Are you awake?"
Zhou Hongpi was curious: "Where did Panyun go?"
The aunt looked complicated: "Run away. She gave me money and asked me to help you find a doctor. When I came back, she was gone. I heard that she went to Dongjie Street, rented a carriage, and seemed to be going out of the city.
Already."
Zhou Hongpi felt that he might have been injured too seriously, his eyes were dizzy, his whole body was shaking, and he almost fell down.
"try to find!"
Because of her, he lost a hand and became a cripple.
It turned out that those feelings were all fake, everything Zhang Mazi said was true, and the woman just wanted to use him to leave Zhang Mazi.
How is this possible?
But the sky is vast, this person has disappeared in the vast sea of people, where can I find him?
He was injured and couldn't run around. So, it was half a month later when he actually went out to find someone.
During this period of time, Zhang Mazi came to "visit" him. During this period, he made sharp remarks and ridiculed him for not being able to see people's hearts.
When Zhou Hongpi went out, he had accumulated a lot of anger and went to Jiangcheng first.
Pan Panyun did go to Jiangcheng. She believed that even if she was in trouble, as long as her aunt was around, it would still be easy for ordinary people like Bai Tian, Zhang Mazi and Zhou Hongpi. After all, although Zhou Hongpi lost a
It only takes one hand, but as long as there is enough money, the anger in his heart can be calmed.
She had planned well and had previously intended to find out where her aunt lived. The journey went smoothly and she found her way directly outside the gate of Yu's house.
When Mrs. Yu heard that someone was coming, she was stunned for a moment: "Did you really come?" Seeing the people around her nodding, she waved her hand and said, "No!"
Pan Panyun was turned away.
Before coming, she had also thought about this possibility, but even without leaving, she knelt directly outside the gate.
There was such a person kneeling in front of the Gaomen Mansion, and people passing by looked at her sideways. Mrs. Yu felt that she could not afford to humiliate such a big person, so she ordered: "Kick her away, and if she still persists, beat her up!"
Pan Panyun thought that even if her aunt didn't care about her, her mother would be soft-hearted, so she insisted on kneeling at the door, but she waited for this result. She didn't want to be beaten, especially after seeing Zhou Hongpi's broken hand, she was even more afraid of getting hurt, so she ran away immediately
.
Zhou Hongpi came and found the person smoothly.
During this period, Mrs. Yu's help was not missing. She originally wanted to win over Pan Panyun for her sister's sake, but she found out what this girl had done after she left, especially using others to leave Zhang Mazi.
...Even if you are using them, you shouldn't let them leave quietly while they are still seriously injured. This is simply heartless and heartless.
Zhou Hongpi didn't dare to be too harsh to her, after all, the Yu family was so close, so he directly found her who was sharing a house in a small yard: "Pan Yun, come home with me, I haven't married you yet?"
Pan Panyun wanted to run away when she saw him, but there was only one door in the yard. She had no way out, she just apologized: "Brother Zhou, I can't help you. I never wanted to marry into a family like yours...
…”
Zhou Hongpi had guessed the truth a long time ago, but when he heard her say this, he still felt as if his brain had been hit by a heavy hammer. He said with a serious face: "I even gave up one of my hands for you.
Is this how you treat me?"
Pan Panyun felt very guilty and apologized again: "I'm sorry."
Zhou Hongpi had suppressed a lot of anger along the way, especially when he borrowed money for this trip... He always thought of the best in everything, and he even dreamed that the Yu family recognized him and gave him money.
He has a lot of money.
Now it seems that it was really a dream.
He was impatient: "I don't want to hear such words, as long as you go back with me."
Pan Panyun didn't reply, she shook her head: "I really don't want to marry into your family..."
Zhou Hongpi interrupted her: "You want to marry the He family, but it's a pity that they don't like you. Although you have a rich aunt, you are a girl from an ordinary family, so you are worthy of marrying someone like me.
.You are not innocent now, you are already married to me
It's your blessing, so don't push it too far." He stepped closer and grabbed her wrist: "Zhang Mazi and I grew up together. Although we are not as ruthless as him, we will never allow anyone to deceive us.
As for me, do you really want to be my enemy?"
Pan Panyun felt the pain on her wrist, looked at the fierceness in the eyes of the man in front of her, and suddenly felt that she was wrong. She had just stepped out of the tiger's mouth and into the wolf's den. How could she have thought that Zhou Hongpi was easy to negotiate and would be willing to do so?
Let her go?
"Brother Zhou...I..."
However, a carriage came and stopped in front of the two of them. The driver did not recognize them. When they were confused, they heard the driver say: "My wife has ordered me to take you back to your hometown."
Pan Panyun was furious: "Who is your wife?"
The coachman was not afraid and simply said: "My master's surname is Yu."
Pan Panyun: "..." It's over!
Auntie, you know her situation, but you are unwilling to help. You even want to step on her, so how can you hope for her?
The weather was good on the day the two returned to the city. As soon as they arrived at the gate of the city, the carriage stopped. Zhou Hongpi did not dare to expect too much. The carriage driver was able to deliver him here beyond his expectation.
He got off the carriage and dragged Pan Panyun out.
Pan Panyun was not happy to come back. With a straight face, he looked up and saw the He family couple not far away.
Her eyes fell on He Changshan: "Uncle He..."
He Changshan looked her up and down: "Just come back."
Pan Panyun: "..." What's good?
Coming back is obviously a punishment.
Along the way, she had already confirmed that Zhou Hongpi would never let her go. She would probably really be the wife of Zhou's family in this life.
"Uncle He, please help me." She burst into tears.
He Changshan shook his head: "I came here just to see you come back with my own eyes."
