After Aunt Wang left, Xiao Huai sat in the yard for a long time, unable to calm down. He fell into deep thought, thinking about what Aunt Wang said about him and Jiang Taohua, and thinking about the two of them in Bi Bo Lake...

It was true that there was something unclear between them. Although they didn't do anything, he took advantage of her after all.

While Xiao Huai was lost in thought, Jiang Taohua was saying to everyone, "I'm going on a long trip. You guys take care of the tavern."

Xiao Huai has been unsettled by her teasing, and it's time to close the net. She first uses the excuse of going on a long trip to play, playing hard to get, making Xiao Huai feel confused. When Xiao Huai realizes his feelings for her, she closes the net and takes him down.

"Okay." Knowing that their boss lady didn't like others asking about her private affairs, A, B, C, and D didn't ask anything and agreed obediently.

For the next few days, Xiao Huai stayed in the house thinking about him and Jiang Taohua. After he decided to be responsible for Jiang Taohua, he walked out of the house and went to find Jiang Taohua next door. However, he was told by A, B, C, and D that Jiang Taohua had gone on a long trip.

Xiao Huai frowned. She was a weak woman who was so beautiful and couldn't even tie a chicken. It would be very dangerous for her to travel far away alone. He wanted to go out and find her, but he didn't know where she had gone.

In the following days, Xiao Huai was anxiously waiting for Jiang Taohua to come back. After more than half a month, Jiang Taohua still hadn't returned.

That afternoon, Xiao Huai finally couldn't sit still anymore and decided to go out to find Jiang Taohua. As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Jiang Taohua coming back.

After not seeing her for more than half a month, he felt that she had become more beautiful, but she was accompanied by a man with outstanding temperament and handsome face.

When Xiao Huai saw the man, his face suddenly darkened, and there was a raging anger burning in his heart. He felt like his woman had betrayed him.

Jiang Taohua felt a burning gaze staring at her. She turned her head and saw Xiao Huai looking at her with deep dark eyes.

Looking at him like that, Jiang Taohua knew that Xiao Huai had misunderstood, so he ignored her and walked in with the man.

Xiao Huai stared at their backs as they entered with dark eyes.

"Madam, sorry to bother you." Song Xingyi said to Jiang Taohua modestly and gently.

Jiang Taohua said calmly, "Nothing."

She picked up this man on the way back to Qingshan Town. On the way to Beijing for the imperial examination, he encountered robbers and all his money and belongings were stolen by the robbers, leaving him penniless.

Pangpang said that he was a grateful person and would become the top scorer in high school this year, so she brought him back as a good person.

Jiang Taohua brought Song Xingyi into the tavern, and asked Jia, Yi, Bing, and Ding to take him to the guest room to rest, while she returned to her room to take a nap.

She was sleeping soundly, but Xiao Huai was burning with anger. When he thought about the relationship between her and that man, he wanted to climb over the wall and beat up the man.

After calming down, Xiao Huai went to the next door with a cold face to buy peach blossom wine. He wanted to find out from A, B, C, and D about the relationship between Jiang Taohua and the man she brought back. When he walked to the door, he heard A, B, C, and D discussing it while cracking melon seeds.

"Hey, do you think the boss lady has taken a fancy to that Mr. Song?"

Xiao Ding, who likes to imagine things, said without hesitation: "Of course, you see, the proprietress has brought Mr. Song back to the tavern. Isn't this telling us all that Mr. Song will be her man from now on?"

"Mr. Song is handsome, gentle, and a scholar. If I were a woman, I would like him. The boss lady really has good taste."

"Hehe, the boss lady is beautiful, hardworking and capable. Mr. Song is blessed."

…

Xiao Huai stood outside the door listening to the discussion between A, B, C, and D. A fire rose in his heart, his face became very gloomy, and he stepped in.

A, B, C, and D, who were discussing the matter of Jiang Taohua and Song Xingyi, stopped their discussion immediately when they saw Xiao Huai coming in. The four of them stood up and went forward to greet Xiao Huai enthusiastically.

"Brother Xiao, you are here. How many bottles of peach blossom wine did you buy today?" Xiao Jia asked with a smile.

Xiao Huai said coldly: "Four bottles."

His voice was cold and he exuded a low aura. Everyone, A, B, C, and D, couldn't help but shiver. They all thought in their hearts, who made Xiao Huai angry?

Xiao Huai's face was so dark that it looked like ink would drip out at any moment. A, B, C, and D looked very scared and didn't dare to talk to him much. They gave him the four bottles of peach blossom wine he asked for.

After buying the peach blossom wine, Xiao Huai returned home. When he got home, Xiao Huai drank with a cold face, with a raging anger burning in his heart.

When Jiang Taohua woke up, it was already dark. She learned from A, B, C, and D that Xiao Huai came to her tavern to buy wine in the afternoon. His face was very gloomy. Jiang Taohua curled the corners of her lips and thought to herself, it's time to close the net.
