Chapter 47: The Most Amazing and Special Woman
Just as Aunt Li said, how could they not be curious about such a big incident?
It was impossible not to be curious, but the expressions of the few people in the Huo family courtyard were strange.
Especially Zhang Yue’e and Huo Chuchun.
They looked at each other, then their eyes turned to look at Chi Wan.
Chi Wan had slept all day yesterday and didn’t know what had happened at home.
Being stared at like this, she was also confused.
Finally, her gaze shifted to the side.
She looked at Huo Nanchuan.
This man was the pillar of the family, the head of the household.
No matter what happened, asking him was always the right thing to do.
Just like that.
Everyone’s eyes focused on Huo Nanchuan, waiting for the man to speak.
Huo Nanchuan turned his black eyes to Chi Wan, gazing at her slightly excited and expectant expression.
He asked, “Do you want to join in the fun?”
Chi Wan nodded like a kitten, moving slightly.
In her eyes, there was the sparkle of the morning sun.
Of course, she wanted to join in the fun.
When she caught them red-handed in the woods, she was not suitable to be present due to her special status, so she missed the scene of Lu Xiangxiang and Song Jing’s embarrassment.
Today, the matter must have escalated.
It must be even more lively and noisy.
Chi Wan really wanted to see with her own eyes what kind of ending a scheming woman and a sleazy man would have.
As the victim, she could also feel a sense of justice.
Huo Nanchuan met Chi Wan’s gaze, as if he understood what was in her heart.
The man relaxed and said, “Alright. You can only stand outside and watch, you’re not allowed to get involved. Got it?”
These words.
Were Huo Nanchuan’s instructions to Chi Wan.
They were also an order to the others.
Therefore, before Chi Wan could speak, Huo Chuchun answered first.
“Big brother, we understand. We will only take a look from afar, we definitely won’t have anything to do with Lu Xiangxiang. Let’s go, let’s go, sister-in-law, let’s go.”
After Huo Nanchuan agreed.
The strange atmosphere in the Huo family courtyard disappeared.
Zhang Yue’e and Aunt Li walked together.
Huo Chuchun held Chi Wan’s arm, as close as sisters.
They walked forward excitedly, as if they were in a hurry to go to the market.
Even Huo Dongzhi followed silently behind.
Huo Nanchuan stretched out his hand, grabbed Huo Dongzhi’s collar, and asked with a sullen face.
“You’re a man, what are you doing going to join in the fun?”
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Huo Dongzhi’s youthful face, but he quickly said.
“Big brother, I’m not going to join in the fun, I’m going to protect sister-in-law and Xiao Chun.”
The young man’s figure, under Huo Nanchuan’s hand, nimbly turned a circle.
Then he took off running.
Immediately catching up with the figures of the others in front.
Huo Nanchuan looked at Huo Dongzhi’s fleeing back, gazing at him from afar, but didn’t say anything else.
…
On the way there.
Aunt Li said, “This matter has become too big. Everyone in the surrounding villages knows about it. It’s really embarrassing for our village. Look, now it’s even gone to the production brigade…”
So they walked towards the production brigade commune.
Huo Chuchun held Chi Wan’s hand tightly and said on the way.
“Sister-in-law, yesterday Big brother was super strict with us, saying that from now on, we are not allowed to get involved in anything related to Lu Xiangxiang, anything related to the Lu family.”
“Don’t even say a word, even if you see them on the road, don’t even greet them.”
“You don’t know, Big brother’s expression was so scary when he said these words. I’ve never seen Big brother like this before. Even when the Lu family came to break off the engagement, Big brother didn’t change his expression…”
Listening to her whispers.
Chi Wan finally understood the reason for the strange expressions of the Huo family.
It turned out…
The man did more than that.
Huo Nanchuan couldn’t completely tell the story of Lu Xiangxiang drugging and scheming against him.
But he also used the most forceful attitude to demand that the Huo family stay away from Lu Xiangxiang’s family wherever they went.
It was his anger from the bottom of his heart.
It was also the best protection for his family.
In Chi Wan’s heart, she seemed to understand Huo Nanchuan a little more.
Huo Chuchun’s whispered words continued.
“Actually, even if Big brother didn’t say anything, we wouldn’t associate with those people from the Lu family…”
“They’re all snobbish, they’ve looked down on our poor family since before. They also looked down on Big brother for only knowing how to work in the fields…”
“But Xiangxiang jie…that Lu Xiangxiang, she looks quiet and gentle on the surface, you really can’t tell she would do something like this…”
She paused here, suddenly.
Turning her face, she looked at Chi Wan with concern.
“Sister-in-law, Lu Xiangxiang was engaged to Big brother a long time ago, I shouldn’t have mentioned it just now, you won’t be angry, will you?”
Chi Wan was not only not angry, but even a little happy.
She replied, “Not angry, you can say whatever you want. If it wasn’t for the Lu family being snobbish, such a good man like your Big brother wouldn’t be mine.”
Huo Chuchun listened.
She was first shocked by Chi Wan’s magnanimity.
Then she thought.
Her face instantly showed a look of admiration.
“Big sister-in-law, you are truly the most special and amazing woman I’ve ever met! You’re different from everyone else in our village.”
Huo Chuchun looked at Chi Wan with even more admiration.
Chi Wan was gazed at by the girl’s clear eyes, and she felt a little proud.
She slightly raised her chin.
Her red lips curled into a faint smile.
Her beautiful face shone in the sunlight.
Chi Wan said to herself, “I think I’m pretty amazing and special too.”
As soon as she finished speaking.
Chi Wan and Huo Chuchun laughed at the same time.
At the same time.
Huo Dongzhi, who was following closely behind, heard everything Chi Wan and Huo Chuchun said.
He silently gazed at Huo Chuchun’s bright and exposed face, and the rare bright smile on her face.
He grinned.
Revealing his neat teeth.
He laughed so brightly and confidently.
Completely different from the little girl who used to hide her face with her bangs.
That confident and exuberant feeling, as if it was given to her by Chi Wan.
It was like light.
Chi Wan illuminated everyone around her, warming them all.
…
In the blink of an eye.
They finally reached the commune.
There were three layers of people surrounding the place.
Some people saw Zhang Yue’e and Aunt Li from afar, and they greeted them warmly, pulling them into the crowd.
Chi Wan followed the gaps in the crowd and saw Lu Xiangxiang, who was lying on the ground, looking miserable.
But the word “miserable” was not enough to describe Lu Xiangxiang’s current situation.
Lu Xiangxiang was more like a dying dog, covered in dirt, lying on the ground.
Her braids, which were always neatly combed, were loose.
Her hair was messy, like a bird’s nest, with fallen leaves in it.
Her clothes were even more messy and dirty.
Stains, dirt…
They were all mixed together.
One of her shoes was missing, revealing her black socks…
Chi Wan saw her appearance, and she even felt that Lu Xiangxiang might not have had a chance to clean up since she was caught red-handed in the woods yesterday, she just barely put on her clothes and maintained this state until now.
She was not only messy, but also had traces of being beaten.
The person who beat her.
Was standing beside Lu Xiangxiang at this moment.
It was her father, Old Man Lu.
Old Man Lu was an honest farmer, born and raised in the village, the farthest place he had ever been was the county town.
In his mind, there were deeply rooted feudal and backward ideas.
He felt that girls should stay at home, do laundry and cook, and get married when they reached the right age.
After marriage, they should take care of their husbands and children, give birth and raise children.
This was a clean and tidy life.
Old Man Lu was good friends with Huo Nanchuan’s father, Huo Lao Da, when they were young.
The ages of their children were also similar.
So they arranged a marriage for their children when they were young.
Even though Huo Lao Da died young and the Huo family’s situation declined.
But in Old Man Lu’s eyes, Huo Nanchuan was a hardworking and honest young man.
Just in terms of farming.
None of the young people in the village could match Huo Nanchuan’s meticulousness and hard work.
Every time there was a harvest, Huo Nanchuan’s land always had the most yield.
This was the reward for his hard work and sweat every day.
So he never looked down on Huo Nanchuan, but hoped that his daughter could marry him and live a stable life, Huo Nanchuan’s character would definitely not disappoint anyone.
However…
Lu Xiangxiang cried, made a fuss, and even tried to hang herself at home every day, she refused to agree to this marriage.
She said that Huo Nanchuan was just a peasant, that she had no feelings for Huo Nanchuan, and even said that she was beautiful and could find a better man to marry…
Old Man Lu had three sons and one daughter.
His daughter was the youngest.
Even though their family was poor, she was raised in the palm of his hand.
Lu Xiangxiang made such a fuss, Old Man Lu had no choice but to agree to break off the engagement.
Now the engagement was broken.
Seeing that Huo Nanchuan had taken a new wife, their lives were getting better and better, their relationship was harmonious, and they would soon have a child…
But look at Lu Xiangxiang!
Lu Xiangxiang was wandering around the village all day long, having an ambiguous relationship with the male intellectuals from the production brigade.
She even——
“Today, it’s my fault, Old Man Lu, for not teaching my daughter properly, I have given birth to such a shameless thing!”
Old Man Lu roared with red eyes.
He held a bamboo stick in his hand and whipped it fiercely at Lu Xiangxiang.
“Dad, father, it hurts…it hurts…father, I was wrong…I was wrong…I won’t dare again…wuwuwu…”
Lu Xiangxiang cried loudly in pain.
Her face was covered in snot and tears.
Her eyes were swollen beyond recognition!
Lu Xiangxiang crawled on the ground, but she couldn’t escape the bamboo stick in Old Man Lu’s hand, her back still received a heavy blow.
“Father, don’t hit me…wuwuwu…”
“Save me, save me…mother…save me…”
“Brother, big brother…second brother…save me…”
Lu Xiangxiang grabbed the legs of the people around her with her injured hands, begging helplessly.
Lu Xiangxiang’s mother was a silent and introverted farmer, after marrying Old Man Lu, she just gave birth to children and listened to Old Man Lu, how could she come out to plead for her at this time.
As for her three brothers…
Chi Wan looked at this scene, and her mind recalled some of the plots she had read before.
In the original novel, Lu Xiangxiang was described as the darling of their family.
Because she was the only girl in the family, and because she was the youngest, her father doted on her, her mother loved her, and even her brothers treated her like a treasure.
But the scene before her eyes.
Lu Xiangxiang’s three brothers stood straight, they didn’t even look down at Lu Xiangxiang.
When Lu Xiangxiang reached out to grab their legs, they even kicked her away.
“Humph, with such a shameless sister, not to mention father, I, as a brother, am ashamed to be associated with you!”
The voice of disdain and ridicule came from the mouths of the closest people.
The blow to Lu Xiangxiang can be imagined.
Chi Wan looked at this scene and frowned deeply.
After she crossed over to this world, she gradually discovered that many characters’ personalities were not as described in the original text.
Now that she thought about it…
The reason why Lu Xiangxiang’s three brothers treated her like a treasure was because after Lu Xiangxiang married Huo Nanchuan, she secretly used things from the Huo family to help the Lu family.
The three brothers got the benefits, so naturally they treated Lu Xiangxiang like a treasure.
But now, Lu Xiangxiang was unable to be with Huo Nanchuan, so there were no benefits for the three brothers.
The three brothers’ true ugly side was completely exposed.
“Shameless…”
“In broad daylight, I heard they didn’t even wear clothes…”
“What’s so good about this male intellectual, why are they all like they’ve seen Tang Monk’s flesh…”
In the crowd.
The whispers of pointing fingers and criticizing were endless.
One was about Lu Xiangxiang.
The other was about a girl from the neighboring village.
It’s said that family scandals should not be made public.
The matter of Lu Xiangxiang and Song Jing was so absurd yesterday, it was originally supposed to be settled behind closed doors.
But who knew, early in the morning,
People from the neighboring village came over and made a fuss at the production brigade first.
There was a Zhu family in the neighboring village, they had a daughter who was also considered beautiful.
Song Jing took a fancy to her face and figure, and used his hypocritical appearance to secretly flirt with her.
After going back and forth.
The Zhu girl was even pregnant with his child.
The girl was afraid that this matter would affect Song Jing’s reputation, no matter how much her family pressed her, she refused to say who the father of the child was.
But yesterday…
The matter of Lu Xiangxiang and Song Jing spread like wildfire, and it spread to the neighboring village.
When the Zhu girl heard about it, she immediately panicked and told everything about her and Song Jing.
She even insisted that Lu Xiangxiang was the mistress!
When Zhu’s father heard this, he was furious.
He found ten or so people in the village and came over early in the morning to demand an explanation from Song Jing and Lu Xiangxiang.
That was a young and strong guy, holding a hoe, he was blocking the door like a door god.
As a result.
The Lu family’s plan to make a big matter small and a small matter disappear was impossible.
Old Man Lu could only take Lu Xiangxiang to the commune to confront the Zhu family and Song Jing, the three parties confronting each other.
The matter became a big sensation, known throughout the village.
This absurd incident…even Chi Wan didn’t expect it!
