Huang Ying was probably really terrified. Even as He Dabao kept dragging her along, she hadn't recovered from the shock of being thrown into the river.

"Help! Help! There's a ghost! There's a ghost!"

The women didn't know what was going on, and there was no one to ask, so they could only stand there looking at each other in bewilderment.

He Dabao didn't even need to think; he couldn't get any information out of her. He had originally planned to ask Huang Ying, but she seemed to have gone mad.

It's not that he's swearing, it's that he seems to have really gone mad.

The moment Da Bao's mother's hand touched her, a scream loud enough to pierce eardrums rang out:

"Ahhh—there's a ghost! There's a ghost! Don't touch me! Don't touch me! I won't do it again! I'll never do it again!"

Please, let me go, please go find someone else..."

Da Bao's mother thought she had fallen into the water and was frightened by something. After comforting her son, she tried to pull the person into her arms.

“Huang Zhiqing, Huang Zhiqing, it’s alright, it’s alright, don’t be afraid.”

"Wife, it's mine."

He Dabao felt his mother's movement, muttered something, but obediently let go of her hand and went back to eating his rock candy.

When Da Bao's mother heard that muttering, she was startled, but then she just assumed that he had learned it from other children and was just shouting randomly.

Once Huang Yingyi was freed from He Dabao's grasp, she was less agitated and her mind cleared considerably.

After recognizing that the person holding him was Da Bao's mother, he pushed her away while cursing:

"What are you trying to do?! Are you trying to abduct a woman? Let me tell you, I have absolutely no relationship with He Dabao!"

Don't even think about using this to make me marry him. If you dare to even consider that, I'll report him for molesting me!

Da Bao's mother was furious. She was just trying to comfort her because she was afraid that she had frightened her, but her good intentions were completely ignored.

"Huang Zhiqing, what nonsense are you spouting!"

You're so ungrateful! I was just worried you'd fall into the water and get scared, so I didn't care about you!

And why are you dragging my eldest son into this? Everyone in the village knows he doesn't understand anything, he's just a child at heart, how could he possibly be like this to you…”

Da Bao's mother was used to being honest her whole life and couldn't bring herself to say anything harsh. She was so angry that she stomped her feet on the spot.

However, the other women with her were not so simple. Seeing Huang Ying's act of turning the tables, they were all furious and spoke up:

"That's right, Huang Zhiqing, I'm not trying to be mean, but if it weren't for us old women, you might have drowned in that river!"

"That's right. Although the water by the river wasn't deep, her crazy behavior made it seem like she couldn't get up on her own."

We kindly helped her up, and Da Bao's mother, worried she might be frightened, went to comfort her without holding a grudge. Good heavens, and she turned around and accused us!

"Ha, Huang, the educated youth, is so noble, how could she possibly acknowledge the life-saving grace we owe her? It's good enough that she doesn't think we're trying to harm her!"

"If you ask me, Da Bao's mother is just too kind. If it were me, I would have Da Bao keep her by his side all the time, at least circling the village several times."

Even if we don't want her ourselves, we shouldn't let her covet other women. Yes, I'm that vicious! Humph!

Upon hearing this, Huang Ying hurriedly and hastily put on the clothes that He Dabao had torn.

She then freed up one hand and pointed to the group of people who had first pulled her out of the river and then rescued her from He Dabao's clutches.

"You, you must have done this on purpose!"

"How are you doing, Qing? You rescued me, didn't you? You wanted to find a wife for He Dabao, so you threw me into the river, didn't you?"

Da Bao's mother felt even more wronged than Dou E, and in her anger, she immediately slapped her hard across the face.

"What nonsense are you talking about? My son is such a good boy, even if he never marries, he would never want a girl like you!"
