An Miaomiao jumped up: "What, I also need to dry your clothes!"

She's not happy about it, is she?

Nangong Ying stood in front of her, looking down at her, and said, "Before you dirtied my clothes, were they dry? You said you would wash them clean for me, so what's wrong with me asking you to dry them?"

An Miaomiao was speechless.

Nangong Ying then said to An Wanwan, "An Wanwan, I've already given her a chance, but she didn't cherish it. You can't blame me for that, can you? Alright, let's go sign the cooperation agreement!"

He left right after he finished speaking.

An Wanwan glanced at him, then went to An Miaomiao and said, "Miaomiao, I chatted with him for a while, and he was even prepared to tell you not to do the laundry, but then he heard you say that..."

An Miaomiao: "..."

She dug her own grave.

An Miaomiao couldn't get it done for a long time, so An Wanwan told An Dafu and the others to go back first, and she would stay with her until it was done before going back herself.

With An Wanwan's help.

An Miaomiao not only washed Nangong Ying's clothes clean, but also dried them and ironed them neatly.

"All done, thank goodness for you, Wanwan..."

An Miaomiao reached out and hugged An Wanwan.

When they left, Manager Tong arranged for a carriage to take them back.

The next day.

Before An Wanwan and the others had been busy for long, Liu's panicked voice came from outside: "Wanwan, Wanwan, something has happened to your family."

"What's wrong?"

An Miaomiao came out to greet her.

Liu looked around and said, "Your house turned to ashes overnight. It was fine when I went back yesterday, but it's gone when I woke up today!"

She didn't stay to eat at Fuyunlou with An Wanwan and the others yesterday; she went home after the shop closed, which is why she found out about all this.

"What?! Who did this?!"

An Miaomiao called out.

An Wanwan and the others came over when they heard the noise.

They do stay in town often these days, but their home in the village is also their home.

Now my home is gone.

Of course, we can't just let it go like this.

An Wanwan, An Miaomiao, and An Ke immediately rushed back to the village.

Since it was morning, many people were working in the fields. When they saw them return, they all gathered around, telling each other about the terrible state of their houses after they were burned down.

more than this.

They started inquiring about An Wanwan's pregnancy.

Just ask if it's true.

An Ke rolled her eyes at these people: "What's it to you? Are you eating your family's rice? Use this time to control your own children. If you can't make money, why don't you try harder!"

The villager who inquired about Wanwan's pregnancy: "..."

They were just asking out of curiosity, why did he react so strongly?

It's possible that this isn't the case at all.

Was An Wanwan forced into pregnancy?

An Wanwan was unaware of what they were thinking, but she didn't want to offend so many people.

An Wanwan stood up straight and began to speak with neither arrogance nor servility.

“I imagine there must be a lot of rumors about me in the village these days. Since you all want to know, I’ll tell you. I am indeed pregnant, and the child is my husband’s.”

"We had already received our marriage certificate and were about to get married, but unexpectedly, on the eve of the wedding, he was conscripted into the army by the imperial court."

“I can’t bring myself to consummate the marriage with him before he has no offspring.”

"As a result, he died in battle."

"He was probably among the first soldiers to die. I was heartbroken and distressed, but what could I do? Fortunately, I became pregnant with his child, which brought me some comfort."

“My grandma and the others came and made a scene after they found out, telling me to hit them. Tell me, if you were in their shoes, would you hit them?”

“I admit that what I did was somewhat unwise, but I don’t regret it. I was carrying the child of a hero who risked his life to protect our country. He is the best in my heart, and no one can compare to him.”
