Chapter 4

Huo Jincheng glanced at Cao Yunxia indifferently: “She’s, my wife.” He paused, then raised his eyes to look at Lan Yun’er who was holding the can, “And she’s right. This malt extract was indeed taken from her by you, she’s taking it back now, it’s only right.” When Lan Yun’er’s things were taken, he happened to be out working, and didn’t come back until a few days later. When he came back, he wanted to help Yun’er get her things back, but before he could, she started hanging herself and trying to commit suicide. Then she poisoned all the pigs and piglets in the house. After all this commotion, the matter of getting her things back was put on hold. Lan Yun’er raised her eyebrows, glanced at Huo Jincheng. This male lead, truly had the potential to be a good man.

Holding the can, she walked towards Huo Jincheng, leaning against his chest: “Jincheng, my foot hurts so much, I kicked it when I kicked that rogue, it hurt my foot. Her body is so hard.” Although Lan Yun’er’s body had grown up in the countryside, because her family was well-off, she was pampered and grew up with delicate skin and tender flesh, just like the girls in the city. Huo Jincheng gently embraced her, lowered his eyes and looked at her: “Okay, I’ll rub it for you when we get back.” Lan Yun’er smiled sweetly: “Okay.” The two of them embraced and walked outside, Cao Yunxia lay on the ground behind them, yelling angrily: “You two heartless people, you’re bullying your elder sister-in-law like this, how come I’m so unlucky, I married into this kind of family, being bullied by these bastards.” Lan Yun’er and Huo Jincheng, both ignored her.

You just have to deal with this kind of rogue, the more you reason with her, the more she gets carried away. When they got back to the courtyard, Lan Yun’er handed the malt extract to He Shenshi: “This is for you, Auntie, as compensation for the eggs. Auntie, I’m really sorry about what happened today.

I was blinded by greed and did such a foolish thing.” He Shenshi heard this, and then looked at the malt extract in front of her, the shock in her heart couldn’t be expressed in words. She hesitantly reached out to take it, but she didn’t dare: “Jincheng’s wife, this… this is too expensive, right? I only lost a dozen eggs, those eggs are not worth this can of malt extract.” Lan Yun’er smiled, wanting to answer, but Cao Yunxia’s youngest son suddenly ran over: “This is mine, you can’t take my things, give it back to me!” Cao Yunxia’s youngest son, named Huo Tianhe, was almost four years old. He was just like his mother, arrogant and domineering, he was like a little bully in the village. A few days ago, he hit a child in the village on the head, the child’s parents came to ask for medical expenses, Cao Yunxia refused to pay, and in the end, it was Huo’s mother who paid. Huo’s mother didn’t have any money, so she asked Huo Jincheng for it.

Huo Jincheng’s meager earnings from working were all used to pay for Huo Tianhe’s medical expenses. Seeing Huo Tianhe rushing over, Lan Yun’er’s eyes narrowed, she turned her head and looked coldly at Huo Tianhe: “You say this thing is yours? Hmm?” Lan Yun’er’s voice was clear and melodious, as beautiful as a nightingale’s song. But at this moment, Huo Tianhe heard this voice, and he shuddered. Especially when he saw Lan Yun’er’s terrifying gaze. He stopped in his tracks, and dared not move forward anymore. Lan Yun’er curled her lips, this kind of brat, dared to challenge her, heh, truly ignorant of the world. She stuffed the malt extract into He Shenshi’s hand, and said: “Auntie, just take this. Your Da Bao is not in good health, this will nourish him the best.

Don’t be polite with me.” He Shenshi held the heavy thing in her hand, her eyes suddenly turned red again. She knew how expensive this malt extract was.

Although her dozen eggs were valuable to her, they were not comparable to this can of malt extract. But Lan Yun’er gave it to her without a word, which made her… really touched. She wiped the tears that had welled up in her eyes with the corner of her clothes, and said: “Jincheng’s wife, this… then thank you.” Then she looked at Huo Jincheng: “I believe that your wife is a good person at heart, even if she did something wrong before, it’s all over now. You two should live a good life.” He Shenshi had truly changed her mind about Lan Yun’er, after all, she had been sincere and polite just now, and even gave her such an expensive thing. Huo Jincheng put his arm around Lan Yun’er’s shoulders and nodded to He Shenshi: “I know, Auntie.” He Shenshi thanked Lan Yun’er again, then took the things and left happily.

After He Shenshi left, Lan Yun’er looked at Huo Jincheng: “You go take a bath.” Huo Jincheng looked at her: “Isn’t your foot uncomfortable? Come inside, I’ll rub it for you.” He was about to take her inside.

She smiled faintly: “It hurt just now, but it doesn’t hurt anymore. You should go take a bath quickly, if you don’t, I’m afraid you’ll catch a cold.” Huo Jincheng’s eyes deepened, her words of concern made a warm current flow through his heart. His lips curled up slightly, and he replied: “Okay.” He led her to the door of the house and let her go inside, then he turned and walked towards the kitchen to fetch hot water. Huo Jincheng didn’t wash in a basin like Lan Yun’er, he fetched water and went to wash in a simple shed. The shed was built by Huo Jincheng specially when he was getting married to Lan Yun’er, for her convenience when taking a bath. Now, it was convenient for the whole family.

While Huo Jincheng was taking a bath, Lan Yun’er stood at the door of the house for a while. This world was still unfamiliar to her, she wanted to go around and explore the surroundings. Action speaks louder than words, she went to the main room and picked up a bamboo basket, then stepped out of the courtyard. Cao Yunxia’s room was still filled with her scolding, it seemed that she was truly furious. But Lan Yun’er didn’t have the mood to deal with her, she could scold as much as she wanted, anyway, she would swallow her words in the end. When she reached the door of the courtyard, she turned around and said to the shed: “Jincheng, I’m going out for a while, but I’ll be back soon.” Hearing this, Huo Jincheng paused in his actions in the shed, he raised his voice slightly and asked: “Where are you going?” “I’m going to pick some wild vegetables nearby; I’ll be back after I pick them.” Huo Jincheng frowned fiercely: “You just fell into the river; you can’t be out in the wind. Just rest at home, if you want to pick wild vegetables, go tomorrow.” But there was no sound coming from outside, Huo Jincheng tightened his grip on the cloth, his face turned dark. He was afraid that she would catch a cold from being out in the wind, and he was also afraid that she… would go out to meet that Wang Zhiqiang. After all, Wang Zhiqiang had been looking for her these days, always trying to make a date with her when he wasn’t paying attention!

…Lan Yun’er came to the foot of the Langya Mountain in the village. She wanted to go up the mountain to have a look, although she was now a human, but deep down, she was a ginseng spirit. And ginseng spirits loved places with abundant spiritual energy, like this mountain. She stood at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the mountain.

There were a few birds perched on a tree in front of her, the birds were chirping and making a lot of noise on the branches. Lan Yun’er listened to their voices, but she could understand what they were saying. “Look, look, this is the new wife that the Huo family married, this wife is so troublesome, she tried to hang herself, poisoned the pigs in the house, and even stole things today.” “This wife is really a troublemaker, she’s beautiful but not likeable at all.” “Yeah, yeah, not likeable.

She’s not only a troublemaker, she’s also stupid.

She was instigated by Zhou Mingyue and Zhou Mingli.

Zhou Mingyue and Zhou Mingli are clearly up to no good, but she still treats them as good people, don’t you think she’s stupid?” “Yeah, stupid, really stupid.” “Hahaha, so stupid.” Lan Yun’er listened to the birds’ conversation; her face turned black. So, these little animals were gossiping about her, making fun of her, how famous was she in this village? She looked at the birds who were chatting happily with a displeased expression, and coughed lightly: “You five stupid birds on the tree, who are you calling stupid? If you call me stupid again, be careful I make you into a meal!” The five stupid birds were stunned when they heard this. Then they all flapped their wings and looked at Lan Yun’er. “She seems to understand what we said? How can she understand?” “Isn’t she human? Ah? Look, there’s a big radish living inside her body, that radish is so scary.” “What radish, it’s ginseng, it’s a thousand-year-old ginseng.” “A thousand years old, it’s a ginseng spirit.

My my my… my heavens!” Lan Yun’er heard this, and looked at her own body, they could actually see that her soul was a ginseng spirit? Could Huo Jincheng and the others see it? They probably couldn’t, otherwise they would have been scared to death. She raised her eyes to look at those stupid birds, the stupid birds seemed to be scared, flapping their wings to escape, Lan Yun’er sneered, her fingers twitched, and the birds were actually in front of her. The stupid birds were scared to death, they all trembled, their round eyes looked at Lan Yun’er in fear. And Lan Yun’er was also surprised.

She actually still had magical powers? Just as she was wondering, suddenly a voice came towards her: “Xiao Yun, Xiao Yun, you’re here.” Lan Yun’er frowned, and looked in the direction where the voice came from. When she saw the two women coming towards her, her eyebrows twitched, and a cold smile appeared on her face. Oh, the female lead Zhou Mingyue and her sister have come.

These two, they’re here to find out what’s going on, right? To find out if Huo Jincheng is willing to divorce her. She turned her head to look at the five stupid birds and said: “Get lost!” The five stupid birds heard this, and quickly flapped their wings and flew away, flying quickly towards the mountain. As soon as the birds flew away, Zhou Mingyue and Zhou Mingli walked over. Zhou Mingyue was a year older than Lan Yun’er, although she looked pure and lovely, she was not as delicate as Lan Yun’er. Her eyes looked at Lan Yun’er softly, and she asked: “Xiao Yun, you fell into the river today, we were all scared to death. My sister and I were cutting grass outside at the time, and we didn’t have time to save you. Are you okay?” The sincerity in her tone, as if she was truly concerned about Lan Yun’er, as if she was really worried about her. Lan Yun’er looked at the hypocritical face in front of her, she smiled, and brushed the stray strands of hair from her ear: “I’m fine, you see, I’m perfectly fine.” Lan Yun’er’s casual gesture of brushing her hair was extremely charming, if a man saw it, he would be smitten! Zhou Mingyue hated Lan Yun’er’s seductive look the most, this woman, was always flirting and acting seductive, she didn’t know why Jincheng ge would marry such a woman! She had countless thoughts in her mind, but she smiled on the surface and said: “It’s good that you’re okay, Xiao Yun, it’s good that you’re okay.” She took Lan Yun’er’s hand, and chatted with her affectionately for a while, then she suddenly changed the subject and asked: “By the way, Xiao Yun, did Jincheng ge agree to the divorce? You stole from He Shenshi’s house today, is he very angry? Does he not want to live with you anymore?”
