Reborn as the Blissful Wife in the countryside-Chapter 1114: The Perfect Wife He Wants

"Yes!" The Shadow Guards of the Ouyang Family answered, charging towards the bandits on horseback.

Upon hearing this, Gu Jin’an looked up and saw a girl riding on horseback, resembling a general on the battlefield. She was drawing her bow, shooting arrows to slay enemies, issuing orders, leading her soldiers to attack and conquer.

The summer wind blew slightly, making the girl’s hair and skirt flutter. Yet, she maintained a steady gaze, facing the bandits with composure, skillfully commanding her men to fend off the enemy.

What a majestic heroine! 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Most importantly, the girl was also very beautiful.

Gu Jin’an was stunned, his heart racing, thinking... this was the perfect wife he had always wanted!

However, just as he was marveling, he was knocked to the side by a sword hilt.

The one who hit him was none other than Ouyang Ming.

Ouyang Ming, riding on horseback, looked down at him and said: "Don’t just stand there dazed. If you’re scared, hide to the side, lest you get hurt by the bandits."

Gu Jin’an: "..."

I am not scared!

Just a bunch of bandits, could they scare him?

But he had no chance to explain, as Ouyang Ming had already turned the horse’s head and charged at the scattered bandits, wielding a long knife, slicing through several bandits before running a dozen meters.

She turned the horse’s head again and charged back...

They rode on horseback, like cavalry, suddenly appearing, taking great advantage, killing and injuring dozens of bandits in just one round.

The bandit leader was furious, pulling out the arrow piercing his palm, and said to the other bandits: "Gather, surround that little bitch, catch her, and when the time comes, drag her to bed for the brothers..."

With a whoosh, Gu Jin’an had already got up, taking the knife that the bandit leader dropped on the ground, slashing toward the bandit leader, almost slicing his throat.

The bandit leader was also skilled, rolling to the side in haste, avoiding death but still terrified, looking at Gu Jin’an in horror: "You know martial arts?"

Gu Jin’an merely sneered coldly, once again charging at the bandit leader. The bandit leader hurriedly got up to face him, but Gu Jin’an was ruthless, using a packet of poison to make the bandit leader foam at the mouth. Seizing the opportunity, Gu Jin’an stabbed a knife into his abdomen, then pulled it out, grabbing his hair, and pressed the knife against his neck, shouting at the bandits still resisting: "Your leader is done for. Put down your weapons immediately. As long as you blame everything on him, at most, you will be sent to work in the mines."

He added: "With your skills, escaping from the mines would be easy, so don’t resist, lest you hurt yourselves with blind swords."

The bandits were swayed by Gu Jin’an’s words. Indeed, as long as they didn’t die, with their skills, escaping from the mines wouldn’t be hard.

However, the bandits didn’t want to surrender just like that; they wanted to escape.

Gu Jin’an anticipated this, and while they were stunned by his words, he let Zezi, Feng Jin, and Feng Lian attack from the side.

The Shadow Guards of the Ouyang Family also reacted, joining Feng Jin and the others to surround the bandits. After another round of slashing, with six more bandits killed, the others, seeing they couldn’t win, quickly abandoned their weapons and surrendered.

Thus, the brawl was settled.

Ouyang Ming ordered: "Sever their achilles tendons."

Hearing this, Lv Bai and the others shivered in fear. This girl was truly ruthless, even after capturing them, she wanted to sever their achilles tendons.

Gu Jin’an, however, thought Ouyang Ming did right, saying: "The girl is smart. By severing their achilles tendons, they can’t escape or resist."

Ouyang Ming listened, looked at Gu Jin’an, sheathed her knife, and dismounted, walking towards him: "I apologize for earlier. I was afraid the horses might collide with you, so I knocked you over."

She bowed a little to Gu Jin’an, formally apologizing.

Gu Jin’an: "..."

Not only was she beautiful, but she was also capable, able to command her household servants to fend off bandits and even offer an apology to honor a scholar.

Gu Jin’an was very satisfied, a smile appearing at the corners of his mouth, saying: "The girl is our savior. Were it not for her rescue, we would have surely perished in hell this time. Her kindness in saving us is beyond any other small matters. The girl is not wrong; there’s no need to apologize. It is us who should be thanking you, dear girl."

Saying so, he clasped his hands in a gesture of gratitude, thanking Ouyang Ming for saving their lives.

Feng Lian was dumbfounded, looking at Gu Jin’an as if seeing a ghost, tugging at his big brother’s sleeve, and whispered: "Big brother, what’s wrong with Brother An? Why did he suddenly say so much? He usually doesn’t talk much, except when scolding people... and he didn’t need rescuing; he could handle the bandits himself and brought a lot of poison."

The bandit leader was taken down by a packet of poison from Brother An.

Hearing Gu Jin’an’s words, Feng Jin furrowed his brows too, not understanding what Gu Jin’an intended to achieve, why he spoke as if he were incompetent. However, he didn’t ask, just said: "Don’t say too much, just follow Brother An’s orders."

Brother An must have a reason for doing so, and as servants, they should stay silent and obey orders.

"Oh." Feng Lian responded, wanting to run over to serve Brother An but was stopped by a glance from him.

Ouyang Ming pointed to his hand: "Your sleeve is covered in blood. Are you hurt?"

She took out a bottle of antiseptic medicine and handed it to Gu Jin’an: "Take it, apply it to your wound quickly, or it might affect your exam."

Gu Jin’an did not refuse, taking the antiseptic medicine from Ouyang Ming, and said: "You know we are examinees going to the exam?"

Ouyang Ming nodded: "Yes, we let the Shadow Guards scout ahead when traveling, and they overheard the bandits talking, learning you are examinees going to the exam."

She reminded Gu Jin’an: "Hurry and apply the medicine to your arm, or the injury will worsen."

Gu Jin’an, not wanting to deceive her, directly told her: "You don’t need to worry, my arm isn’t injured. These bloodstains belong to Brother Wenliang. Only my right shoulder is slightly aching."

The last part made Ouyang Ming feel embarrassed. She hurriedly said: "Wait, I will get you some ointment for bruises."

The aching right shoulder should have been caused by the blow from her with the sword hilt.

Gu Jin’an smiled and said: "Thank you, dear girl."

Ouyang Ming nodded, mounted her horse, and rode back, where there was a carriage, and the medicine box was in the carriage compartment.

Gu Jin’an watched as Ouyang Ming rode away into the distance and remarked: "So free-spirited, not inferior to any man, truly limitless charm."

Feng Lian frowned, unable to understand, but judging by Brother An’s gaze, it seemed he was praising the girl.

Gu Jin’an, noticing Feng Lian’s gaze, turned to him and said: "Go and bandage Brother Wenliang and the others’ wounds."

He then instructed Feng Jin and Zezi: "Go help tie up the remaining living bandits."

"Aye." The three responded, each running off to do their tasks.

Gu Jin’an remained still, waiting for Ouyang Ming.
