Wei Yu, who was not far away, frowned. With her internal strength, it would be easy for her to hear what the other person was saying at such a close distance, but now she couldn't hear anything at all. Was this the young lady's doing?

She had heard of the girl's abilities, but this was the first time she had witnessed them firsthand.

She was certain that the girl had no internal energy, so why was she so powerful that she even interfered with her hearing?

No wonder the girl said she didn't need their protection. At first, she thought the girl was worried about her, but now it seems she misunderstood.

Sun was completely unaware of the contest taking place and earnestly said, "Then see if you can add a little more. Money can be earned back, but we can't lose our lives! Whether we go back to Changzhou or the grasslands, there are countless dangers. Don't offend Master Ming too much, or we'll be the ones who suffer in the end."

"I know, Ms. Sun, please don't worry!"

He Jiuniang nodded repeatedly, appearing very cooperative.

"What should we do with that person? Are you really going to just watch her steal your man?"

Mrs. Sun was still very concerned about this matter. She could not tolerate anyone who wanted to ruin her son and daughter-in-law's marriage.

"Don't worry, I'll handle it."

He Jiuniang patted the back of her hand, gave her a reassuring look, and smiled smugly.

Ms. Sun was really worried. She didn't know if her third son's wife was really stupid or pretending. Even in this state, she could still grin and laugh without a care in the world. How could she be so carefree about her stupid son?

In her opinion, no man is a good person. If they are not disciplined, who knows what kind of trouble they will cause.

Yes, it's already terrible for a daughter-in-law to be treated like this; she can't say anything, scold anyone, or even hit anyone.

But she could go and beat her unruly son, since he was always causing trouble for the family!

She got up and left. She thought she saw the third son and the old man together when she came over.

Lu Baichuan was discussing the relocation of the grave with his father when he suddenly saw his mother rushing in carrying a stick.

"Third brother, you troublemaker, I'll teach you a lesson today!"

Ms. Sun rushed in and started hitting him without holding back at all.

This son is really a handful. He angered his wife yesterday, and today he's brought in another little vixen. Is he deliberately trying to ruin his life?

They're still together now, so they can deal with anything that happens in time. But if he goes to the capital alone tomorrow, who knows how many temptations he'll face? His third wife will be miserable.

Ms. Sun felt that she had never suffered such injustice when she was young, so she certainly couldn't let her daughter-in-law suffer like that.

So she directed all her resentment at Lu Baichuan.

While dodging, Lu Baichuan asked, "Mother, what happened? Why are you hitting me?"

He felt wronged. Hadn't the matter of upsetting his wife yesterday been put behind him? Why was she bringing it up again now?

"You have the nerve to ask! What's with that woman who came today? You think you're all grown up now, that you don't respect me anymore! Let me tell you, if you dare to mess around, I'll beat you to death, and I'll pretend I never gave birth to you, you bastard!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Baichuan instantly knew that his wife had spoken to his mother, and a moment of silence fell over him.

His wife is really ruthless. She doesn't say anything on the surface, but she turns around and tells his mother, and then lets his mother teach him a lesson!

"Mother, your son did nothing. It was all Uncle Ming who sent her! I'm leaving tomorrow. Just keep an eye on her and make sure she doesn't do anything reckless."

Lu Baichuan was bitter inside. He said that even his mother didn't understand, but he really couldn't understand what Mingze meant. Wasn't sending this person over just ruining their relationship?

Does Aunt Jiang know?

He narrowed his eyes. Fine, if Mingze is ruthless, then don't blame him for being unjust.

When he goes to the capital, he will apply eye drops to Jiang Ruoya every day!

After hitting him a few times, Sun finally stopped, glaring at him angrily and saying, "You better behave yourself, or I'll break your legs!"

Lu Baichuan felt exhausted, but he didn't dare to say anything more. He felt that he would be beaten if he opened his mouth.

"knew."

He obediently agreed, but in his heart he made a mental note of Mingze, thinking, "Just you wait!"

After Sun finished her tantrum, Old Man Lu and Lu the eldest finally had a chance to ask what had happened. Sun gave a fierce explanation, and then Lu Baichuan received death stares from his father and elder brother.

In the end, he couldn't escape a lecture either, leaving Lu Baichuan speechless with frustration.

Lying in bed at night, I stared blankly at the ceiling. I was so tired today.

I'm going to the capital tomorrow, and I was thinking of spending some quality time with my wife tonight, but then I realized there's someone secretly watching over us, and I've instantly lost all interest.

He Jiuniang didn't care; she was about to get her period and didn't have any such thoughts.

Lu Baichuan was the only one who felt distressed from beginning to end.

He held He Jiuniang in his arms, sighed softly, and said, "Wife, once I go to the capital, find an excuse to send her away. It's not a good idea to keep watching her at home all the time."

"Don't worry, she won't stay home all the time."

Lu Baichuan was very satisfied: "Hmm, then I'm relieved..."

"Because I plan to have her go to the capital with you."

"Um?"

Lu Baichuan opened his eyes instantly, his face full of disbelief.

He Jiuniang calmly patted his face, her tone gentle: "Yes, you heard me right, I plan to let her go with you."

"Why? I really don't know her at all, honey!"

Lu Baichuan sat up instantly, feeling completely awful.

He was just thinking that he could escape that woman tomorrow and that his wife would have already taken care of things by the time he saw her again. But then this sudden bombshell hit him!

Although he did anger his wife before, he wrote a self-criticism and promised not to make the same mistake again. His wife also said she forgave him. So why was he given such a big punishment?

He really can't handle it!

I could break his legs!

I'm tired, really tired...

Lu Baichuan was completely dejected. How could he bear to bring such a woman to the capital?

"Stop arguing. The one who tied the knot must untie it. Her purpose in coming here is you. It would be best to have her go to the capital with you. If I don't go with you, she will have a chance to make her move."

Lu Baichuan: ? ? ?

What do you mean she had a chance to make a move? And what about him?

“Wife, look at me. I am your husband, not some object.”

He cupped He Jiuniang's face in his hands, forcing her to look at him; at this moment, he was somewhat angry.

He Jiuniang didn't respond, saying, "This is the trouble you caused yourself. You should have handled it yourself, but now I have to deal with it. So this is my solution. You only have one choice: to cooperate."

Although He Jiuniang knew that Lu Baichuan was also innocent in this matter, she still had to show him the proper attitude. She wanted to let Lu Baichuan know how troublesome it was to attract unwanted attention. In the future, if he encountered such a thing again, he should either cut the Gordian knot or nip it in the bud. It was best not to bring it to her attention and upset her.
