Abandoned Woman Busy Farming-Chapter 465 - 467: Settling the Score with You All Properly

Chapter 465: Chapter 467: Settling the Score with You All Properly

In the end, Bai Ruozhu finally left the Meng Residence. The old lady grumbled for a while and ended up insisting on keeping Yu Hongxiu, which is why Yu Hongxiu looked at Bai Ruozhu with such a pitiful expression when she left.

Bai Ruozhu smirked and whispered, "Sister Hongxiu is still in early pregnancy. It’s good for her to sleep separately from Mr. Xie for now."

Yu Hongxiu instantly blushed beet red, glaring at Bai Ruozhu. It was under her resentful gaze and amidst the old lady’s hearty laughter that Bai Ruozhu left.

She agreed to stay at the Meng Residence three days later because the doctor sent by the Imperial Court would be arriving in four days, just in time for her to teach her suturing technique there.

Bai Ruozhu declined the Meng Residence’s horse carriage ride home and instead headed to the market. She thought she might run into some family members while strolling around.

However, when she got off the carriage and looked around, she didn’t see any of her family. Beiyu City was too big to find anyone easily.

"Looking for me?" A deep voice came from behind her. Bai Ruozhu jumped subconsciously, but a look of surprise quickly spread across her face.

"Haven’t you left yet?" Bai Ruozhu asked, looking at Jiang Yichun, who wore a mask.

Jiang Yichun could see the happiness in her eyes, and he grinned.

"I’ll set out this afternoon. So I came to see you." His voice was soft, and very gentle.

A happy smile appeared on Bai Ruozhu’s face. "I’ve received the land deed, I’ll keep it safe for you," she said.

Jiang Yichun chuckled, "Silly girl. What’s mine is yours. Just consider it a gift."

"What if I take that place and start a business? Maybe open a ladies’ leisure club? Would you be upset then?" Bai Ruozhu said with a mischievous smile.

"A ladies’ leisure club? Your ideas are always unique. Go ahead, that place is yours now. Do whatever you want with it. Just don’t sell it," Jiang Yichun replied.

Bai Ruozhu immediately waved her hands in denial. "Sell it? No way! I’d never sell it!"

"You should find someone to expand the place a little bit. We also own the surrounding lands." Jiang Yichun added.

We... The word resonated sweetly in her ears, causing Bai Ruozhu’s eyes to crinkle with her smile.

At that moment, Jiang Yichun suddenly turned his head to look in another direction. Bai Ruozhu hastily followed his gaze and saw Senior Fox striding towards them.

For some reason, he wasn’t wearing a mask today, and his usual smiling and inviting face was filled with anger, as if he was about to explode any moment.

Bai Ruozhu tried to stifle her laughter and quietly said to Jiang Yichun, "I ran into him on the street the other day and Du Fuling saw us. She insisted that he was her savior and I hurriedly ran away. He’s probably here to settle the score with me."

Jiang Yichun took her hand and pulled her behind him. With a hint of amusement in his voice, he said, "Don’t be scared, I’m here."

See, having a woman could be comforting. Senior Fox had set traps for him quite a few times in the past, and he would usually let it slide. But now, the sight of Senior Fox being upset by Ruozhu made him want to laugh.

Bai Ruozhu hid behind him, ensuring that Senior Fox couldn’t see her, then she began to laugh heartily. The thought of Du Fuling, with her "ghastly" appearance, bothering Senior Fox was too amusing to resist.

Senior Fox strode up to Jiang Yichun. His eyes burned with rage as he said, "I have a bone to pick with you two today! You’re always charming women, but now you’ve made me the scapegoat!" He glared at Bai Ruozhu and said, "You’re no better, pushing your problem onto me just because you’re afraid of other girls clinging to him. It’s no wonder you two are together. You’re both wicked!"

Both Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun were laughing so much that they were doubled over. Senior Fox was in such a state that they couldn’t help but imagine what Du Fuling had done to him. Did she...

"What’s wrong big brother? A little girl got you all riled up? I’m sure you can handle her, right?" Jiang Yichun’s voice had a teasing tone in it.

Bai Ruozhu joined in, "I never told her you were her savior. I even told her she got the wrong person, but she wouldn’t listen. It’s not right for you to scold me for this."

Xu Huilin ground his teeth in rage. Could it be that he couldn’t deal with a little girl? But the situation was rather complicated. His connection with the Meng Family wasn’t that straightforward. Meng Liangshen wouldn’t intentionally make things difficult for him, but Meng’s wife would certainly view him as a thorn in her side - a legitimate eldest son. The irony was scathing to her.

Now, Lady Du’s family was related to Meng’s mother-in-law. Previously, the Du Family had asked Meng’s wife to recommend a tutor for Du Zhongshu. If he were to deal with Du Fuling, Meng’s wife would surely make use of the situation. freewebnøvel_com

Of course, he could be more subtle, but he was afraid that Meng’s wife might arrange an engagement for Du Fuling and him. If that were to happen, he would really have to flee from Danliang Country.

With that thought, he glared vehemently at Jiang Yichun saying, "You should go clear things up with that woman. Tell her it was you who saved her life, not me!"

Jiang Yichun stifled a giggle, "Even if I do say so, it won’t help. She has her eyes set on you."

As they were talking, they heard a woman’s voice from afar, "My savior, my savior, it must be you!"

The three turned their heads and sure enough, a "ghastly-looking" woman was rushing towards them. Her face was full of surprise and excitement. However, with a swollen blue nose and missing front tooth, any additional expression was almost unbearable to look at.

Xu Huilin wanted to slip away at the sight of Du Fuling, but then he remembered that the person who should explain the misunderstanding was actually present. Why should he run then?

So, he froze his step that was about to move, turned to Du Fuling, who had already rushed over and said, "Miss Du, you’ve mistaken the person, it was him who saved you."

Unfortunately, Du Fuling was busy drooling over Xu Huilin’s handsome face. Senior Fox was indeed very handsome. Especially when he smiled, his eyes curved like crescents, giving people a very friendly feeling, but when he wasn’t smiling, he gave off the dashing vibe of a young gentleman.

Bai Ruozhu, standing next to Jiang Yichun, sniggered secretly. Although Senior Fox wasn’t as handsome as her Jiang Yichun, he definitely caught Du Fuling’s eye. Didn’t you see her eyes glistening as peach blossoms? Her missing tooth had made it easier for her drool to escape, and she was already drooling from the corner of her mouth, wasn’t she?

Senior Fox also noticed her drooling, and even he, who was usually gracious, couldn’t help but show a look of disgust. He thought to himself, this woman really was madly infatuated.

Du Fuling noticed the disgusted expression on her "savior’s" face and her heart ached. However, she didn’t realize it was her own awkward behavior that embarrassed her. Instead, she held an even stronger grudge against Bai Ruozhu for ruining her face; it was because of her ugliness that her "savior" was repulsed.

She quickly covered her nose and turned to Bai Ruozhu, "Why are you here too? You caused my injury. You are a wicked woman!"

After saying so, she turned with tearful eyes towards Xu Huilin, "My savior, this woman is very crafty behind people’s backs, don’t be fooled by her."

"I know this woman is heartless, but I’m not your savior, he is," Xu Huilin said, pointing at Jiang Yichun who was wearing a mask.
