Meanwhile, Han Yiyi followed her older brother to Han Family Village. Before even entering the courtyard, she heard heart-wrenching coughing coming from inside the house...
Upon hearing this voice, Han Yiyi frowned.
As soon as I entered, I saw Han's mother lying on the bed with a deathly pale face, coughing as if she were about to cough up her lungs.
Seeing that her mother's demeanor didn't seem to be faking it, Han Yiyi lowered her guard.
On the way here, Brother Han asked why he hadn't seen Nangong Yuan, which made Han Yiyi even more suspicious that this trip might be a trap. She grabbed the stun gun and thought that as long as she got to the Han family and saw that her mother was alright, she would just stun him first, no matter what.
Seeing that Han's mother was indeed lying on the bed with a deathly pale face, they lowered their guard.
It turns out that the medicine that Manager Wang gave to Brother Han was meant for him to feed to Brother Han's mother. After taking it, the person would cough incessantly, as if they had tuberculosis.
The reason for this was that if it were a lie, Han Yiyi might not believe it. As for Han's mother's illness, she could be cured by stopping the medication, although the medication was quite harmful to the body. However, in Han's brother's opinion, this was nothing compared to his one hundred taels of silver.
When Han's mother saw Han Yiyi standing in front of her, her eyes held a complex mix of emotions. Just as she was about to say something, she heard a thud, and then saw Han Yiyi collapse softly to the ground.
Then I saw Brother Han appear at the door with a stick in his hand.
It turned out that Brother Han had just stood behind Han Yiyi and punched her, knocking her unconscious.
Brother Han originally thought that if Nangong Yuan came along, he would use the medicine given by Manager Wang. But that fool had disappeared and didn't come along, which made things much simpler.
Looking at the person who had collapsed softly to the ground, a hint of pity flashed in Han's eyes, and she spoke.
"You, be careful, don't hurt your sister..."
When Brother Han saw that the person had fainted, he helped him to a stool and then went out of the room. He took something out of his pocket and lit it with a tinderbox.
The thing shot straight into the sky with a loud bang.
However, this item was given to Brother Han by Manager Wang, who instructed him to send this signal after the matter was settled, at which point he would come to pick up the person.
As for what he was going to do with her, it goes without saying. In his view, a strong-willed woman would become obedient once she became his woman.
Originally, Manager Wang planned to handle the matter directly at the Han family's house, but the dirty and chaotic environment of the Han family's house really disgusted him, so he thought of bringing the person to his rented courtyard to handle the matter.
Meanwhile, Yun Xiao and his group were hurrying towards Zhushan Village when they arrived at the gate, only to find it locked and empty. Yun Xiao's heart sank at this sight.
Shopkeeper Tong, standing nearby, was also very anxious. This was his cash cow! He remembered that when he and Han Yiyi went to the Huang family to watch the excitement, she had a good relationship with one of the old women surnamed Zhang. So he spoke up.
“I know that Sister Han has a very good relationship with an old woman surnamed Zhang. Why don’t I go and ask her if she can find out where Sister Han went…”
Yun Xiao was worried, so the group went to Aunt Zhang's house together.
Just as the group left, a disheveled person appeared from around the corner of the wall. It was none other than Sister-in-law Han, who had been kicked out of the Han family by Brother Han.
As Sister-in-law Han watched the group leave, she followed them.
Actually, the reason why Sister-in-law Han came to find Han Yiyi was because after being kicked out by Brother Han, she went back to her parents' home first. However, when her sister-in-law found out that she had been kicked out by the Han family, she refused to take her in and kicked her out of her parents' home as well.
It was freezing cold, and she had nowhere to go. Of course, she came to Han Yiyi not to ask her to take her in, but to tell Han Yiyi about the man surnamed Wang who was eyeing her, hoping to exchange this information for some money so that Han Yiyi could help her rent a place to live. Otherwise, she was afraid she would freeze to death in this freezing weather.
But to her surprise, when she arrived, she found that Han Yi's house was locked. She had planned to wait in a sheltered corner for Han Yi to return, but instead of Han Yi, she encountered Yun Xiao and his group. Hearing their conversation, she felt for some reason that these people must know the man surnamed Wang.
As soon as they arrived at Aunt Zhang's house, they saw Zihui and Zicheng playing in the yard. The three of them naturally knew each other and were delighted to see them, assuming that Han Yiyi was also there.
But after hearing from Aunt Zhang that Han Yiyi had gone to her parents' home, Yun Xiao's heart started racing again, and she couldn't help but ask anxiously.
"Does Auntie know where this Lady Han's family is located...?"
Hearing Yun Xiao's question, Aunt Zhang was a little embarrassed. She knew that Han Yiyi was from Han Family Village, but she didn't know the exact location.
"Well, this old woman really doesn't know. I only know that the village is called Hanjiazhuang, but I don't know its exact location..."
However, seeing the solemn expressions on their faces, I couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so I asked.
“But what happened to Yi Yi? Maybe I should ask the village chief if he knows where Han Family Village is…”
“Alright…” Yun Xiao quickly agreed when he heard Aunt Zhang say that, but as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a woman’s voice calling from the doorway.
“I know where Han Family Village is. I’ll take you there to Han Yiyi…”
Upon hearing Sister-in-law Han's voice, the group turned around and looked towards the door. When they saw a disheveled woman, they all frowned.
However, when Sister-in-law Han saw Yun Xiao, she was stunned. She had never seen such a handsome man before.
Upon seeing Sister-in-law Han's gaze, Yun Xiao frowned even more, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. Manager Liu noticed his young master's expression and quickly stepped forward, helping Sister-in-law Han to ask.
"Who are you? How do you know where Lady Han is...?"
Aunt Zhang didn't know this Sister-in-law Han either, and seeing her say that, she also looked puzzled and spoke up.
“You’re not from Zhushan Village, which village are you from? How do you know Yi Yi…”
“I am her sister-in-law, I am from Hanjiazhuang, I can take you to find her…”
"Indeed, okay, let's go now..."
The group left Aunt Zhang's courtyard and headed towards the carriage, but Sister-in-law Han remained standing still.
