Chapter 92 Feint to the East, Attack in the West



“Of course I’m sure. If you don’t believe me, you can send as many people as you want,” Fang Yan squatted down, her smile extremely sinister. “Oh, by the way, Huang Hongmei’s second daughter, your second aunt Gao Meiying, didn’t she marry the son of a high-ranking official in the county? You can have her go and inquire about it.”

Although Zhang Jizhou didn't say anything.

However, Fang Yan noticed the attitude of the elite team towards Fang Baishuang;

Then, considering Fang Baishuang's statement that Zhang Jizhou took her with him because she was a lucky charm for him and could give him a bright future.

Fang Yan secretly guessed that this reborn woman, whose mind was still stuck in her previous life, might very well have revealed that she was a reborn woman.

Given her intellectual limitations, she might even reveal some secret military events from this time in her previous life to prove that she was reborn.

It has to be said, Fang Yan was right.

Fang Yan, who had guessed the truth, was so speechless that she didn't know what word to use to describe Fang Baishuang.

With such a brain-dead person, how could the military dare to release someone like that again?

What if she loses her mind and leaks military secrets for some petty gain?

Therefore, Fang Baishuang's fate was predictable; she would never be able to leave that secret place again.

Having finally been reborn, before even starting to live a proper life, I ruined myself.

After her reminder, Li Ermei felt that she should find someone to inquire properly, so as not to be fooled by Fang Yan.

Thinking of this, she quickly got up from the ground and ran towards the Zhang family's house.

The neighbors who had been watching the scene muttered curses at her retreating figure as they dispersed to go home for dinner.

Aunt De was worried and felt that Li Ermei couldn't possibly be that kind-hearted, so she came specifically to remind Fang Yan to take good care of Xiaoyuzai.

"Third brother's wife, give me the key," Aunt De said, worried that Li Ermei might have secretly put something in the door while she was there. "You watch the child, I'll open the door."

"Aunt De, let me open the door," Fang Yan said, the more this was the case, the less likely she was to let Aunt De rush ahead. "You watch over Xiaoyuzai for me, Qibei and I will go in and take a look first."

“Yes, yes, Qibei has the best nose.” Aunt De also thought this arrangement was quite good.

She then took the little fish by the hand and stood next to the large iron bucket.

Fang Yan opened the door and led Qi Bei first into the courtyard for a walk, but they didn't find anything suspicious.

Then he went out, carrying the large iron bucket back in, and said to Aunt De, "Aunt De, it's alright, go inside."

"Huh? Could it be that the Gao family has changed their ways today? Why are they so kind as to come and tell you to take good care of Little Fish?"

Aunt De was still a little incredulous, looking around as she muttered to herself.

Little Fish and Qibei went to play in the main room.

Fang Yan placed the large iron bucket in the kitchen and, as she came out, overheard Aunt De muttering something. She couldn't help but laugh, "Kind-hearted? She could never be kind-hearted."

"Third brother's wife, what do you mean by that?" Aunt De quickly walked over to Fang Yan and asked, puzzled.

Fang Yan looked at her small but vibrant vegetable garden, where she had planted five or six kinds of green vegetables, and wondered which kind of green vegetables she would pick for lunch.

Finally, she decided to stir-fry some water spinach for lunch, and then pick two ripe tomatoes from the shelf in the corner to make a tomato salad with sugar.

Walking back to the front of the main room, he said to Aunt De, "Li Ermei still has to live under the care of Zhang Laowu and Huang Hongmei. Even if she really has such good intentions, she wouldn't dare to come and tell me."

"Third brother's wife, are you implying that what Li Ermei said just now was a lie?" Aunt De reacted quickly.

Fang Yan removed the stems from the tomatoes she had picked and put them in a basin to soak. Then she started picking the empty vegetables. "It's hard to say whether it's true or not, but her purpose for coming here this time should be the same as Gao Meijiao's purpose for coming to see me this morning."

"The same?" Aunt De recalled what Gao Meijiao had said to Fang Yan that morning, and slapped her thigh. "Isn't it exactly the same?!"

"So they both have the same goal." Fang Yan was amused by Aunt De's leg-patting gesture and laughed.

Aunt De leaned closer to her and asked mysteriously, "So, what is their purpose?"

"It's very likely a feint," Fang Yan whispered in her ear.

Aunt De didn't receive much education when she was a young girl.

However, she and Zhang Zongde had a very good relationship.

After their marriage, Zhang Zongde would often take time to teach her to read and write.

Over the years, she has learned a lot of characters and idioms.

The idiom "to feint to the east while attacking in the west" was one she knew.

"Feinting to the east, referring to Little Fish; attacking the west, which west do they want to attack?"

As she spoke, her gaze fell on Fang Yan's face. Suddenly, her mind went blank, and she realized what she had said. Her eyes widened in shock, but her voice became even softer. "This 'Ji Xi,' you don't mean it's you, do you?"

Fang Yan gave her an enigmatic smile, saying, "Time will tell."

This is just her own guess.

In the morning, Gao Meijiao came to see her specifically and put on that show in front of her.

At the time, she and Aunt De and the others were extremely nervous.

Later, he discussed it with Zhang Jizhou, Zhang Zongde, the village chief, and a few others.

I thought that Zhang Laowu and his group might be targeting Xiaoyuzai.

Until Fang Yan met Fang Baishuang.

Until Fang Baishuang said that she had some other ridiculous plan.

At that moment, for some reason, Fang Yan suddenly remembered Gao Meijiao's play.

In a flash, it occurred to her that it was possible that Gao Meijiao had deliberately come to her and put on this act, making it seem as if someone wanted to harm Xiaoyuzai.

But in reality, the person they really wanted to harm was herself.

The idea of ​​using a feint to attack in one direction had already crossed Fang Yan's mind back when she was at the police station.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she got home, Li Ermei put on this show for her again.

I wonder what Zhang Laowu is planning?

He intended to use this method to frequently remind her and lull her into a false sense of security, so that when her attention was completely focused on the little fish and she neglected her own safety, he would then make his move.

I still want to use this method to stimulate her every day without letting her know what will happen, so that she will be under high tension and her nerves will be on edge all the time, until she eventually breaks down.

Well, no matter what Zhang Laowu's intentions are, it has to be said that this male white lotus is truly insidious and ruthless.

This is a tactic that even the most naive and innocent women wouldn't be able to use.
