Looking at the two little ones, their tiny bodies trembling slightly, yet still trying their best to shield her, Han Yiyi felt an indescribable emotion welling up inside her, making her throat feel a little tight.
When Fan Ting saw his child blocking his way, a flash of annoyance crossed his eyes, but then, as if remembering something, his expression suddenly turned loving, and he spoke.
“Da Ya, Shi Tou, it’s your daddy! How can you not recognize your daddy? Not recognizing your daddy isn’t good behavior. How about your daddy, grandma, and mother move in with you? Your mother has a little brother in her belly. When he’s born, you can all play together…”
The mother of the two children that Fan Ting mentioned was naturally Ye Cuihua. In his view, since Han Yiyi had become his concubine, Ye Cuihua, as his legal wife, was naturally the mother of the two children.
The two children didn't immediately understand what Fan Ting meant by saying that their mother had a younger brother in her belly. They even turned to look at Han Yiyi's belly, their little brows almost furrowed together.
When Han Yi saw that this bastard had returned, her eyes were filled with disgust. Hearing what he said, she felt that this man was utterly shameless. So, she shouted directly at Nangong Yuan.
“Yuan’er, throw this thing out of here. If he ever sets foot in our house again, beat him every time you see him…”
Nangong Yuan had long wanted to get rid of this annoying person, but seeing him smiling and talking to Zhihui Zicheng, he didn't go forward. Now, hearing Han Yiyi say this, he didn't hesitate any longer, strode forward, and was about to grab Fan Ting's collar.
When Fan Ting saw Nangong Yuan walking towards him, the injury he had sustained from being thrown earlier began to throb. He quickly stepped back out the door, but called out to Han Yiyi as he did so.
"Han Yiyi, don't be ungrateful. I am now a scholar, and to make you my concubine is already a great favor to you..."
Han Yiyi looked up at the shouting man at the door and thought to herself, "I wonder how the original owner could have fallen for such a thing." In fact, Han Yiyi had forgotten that in this era, women could not decide their own marriages.
The two little ones seemed to understand what Fan Ting meant earlier. Their faces were full of anger. Seeing that the man had already retreated outside the door, they hurriedly went up the mountain to close the door, but Nangong Yuan was one step ahead of them.
He stepped forward and kicked Fan Ting in the stomach, knocking him to the ground. Then he slammed the door shut. The whole sequence of movements was so smooth that the two little ones and Han Yiyi were dumbfounded.
Meanwhile, Fan Ting, who had been kicked to the ground, clutched his lower abdomen and didn't get up for a while. He looked up at the closed door in front of him, his eyes filled with anger. He wondered why Han Yiyi had become so ungrateful. Could it be that she wanted to become his wife?
Thinking of this, Fan Ting's eyes flickered as he looked at the house in front of him, wondering if Han Yiyi's current wealth could compare to that of the Ye family.
Worried that Nangong Yuan, that idiot, would come out and beat him up again, Fan Ting didn't dare linger at the door any longer. He grimaced and rubbed his stomach before getting up and leaving.
However, he had not given up on the idea of making Han Yiyi his concubine. He just felt that given Han Yiyi's current attitude, things should not be rushed and needed to be planned slowly.
While Fan Ting was plotting how to take Han Yiyi's things for himself, Han Yiyi, looking at the person in front of her in the courtyard, finally felt that keeping Nangong Yuan was not a bad investment. At least next time she didn't like someone, she could just let him beat her up.
If Nangong Yuan's subordinates knew that Han Yiyi only regarded their brave and invincible general as a henchman, they would probably all be shocked.
It's not surprising that Han Yiyi dislikes Nangong Yuan so much, because ever since Nangong Yuan recovered from his injuries and was able to get out of bed, all he does is eat and sleep.
Furthermore, he often argues and bickers with Zihui and Zicheng when he has nothing to do. And when it comes to meals, the amount he eats is equivalent to the amount his mother and three children eat. You can tell this by looking at Nangong Yuan now, he's gotten a lot fatter than when he first arrived.
The two little ones were looking at Nangong Yuan with bright, sparkling eyes.
"Brother Yuan, you know kung fu? It's so amazing! Can you teach me...?"
"Yes, yes, I want to learn too, so that when bad people bully Mother in the future, we can protect her..."
The two little ones chattered around Nangong Yuan, but Han Yiyi didn't care, thinking they were just fooling around again. Just then, Aunt Zhang called Han Yiyi from outside the door.
So he told the three of them not to go out, and then he took the basket and went to the back mountain with Aunt Zhang.
None of them noticed the hint of confusion that flashed in Nangong Yuan's eyes when Zicheng mentioned kung fu.
At the Ye family residence, Ye Qian'an looked at the man in black holding a gleaming broadsword, his eyes filled with delight. He thought to himself, "Judging from his appearance, he must be a martial arts master. Killing Han Yiyi and Fan's wife without anyone noticing must be a piece of cake for him."
After telling him the address of Han Yi's family, he also told him the address of Fan's family.
Ye Qian'an was worried that the man in black had gone to the wrong place. She wanted to go with him, but she was also worried that it would expose her identity. Seeing that the man in black looked confident, she paid the deposit first and waited for news at home.
Little did he know that the man in black was spotted as soon as he entered Zhushan Village. The ones watching him were none other than Nangong Yuan's shadow guards, Ye Yi and Ye Er.
In fact, the two of them did not intentionally keep an eye on the man in black. It was because of them that they found clues about Nangong Yuan in Ping'an Town.
They knew the man had appeared in Ping'an Town, but they didn't know which village he was in, so they searched village by village. They had just arrived at Zhushan Village when they saw the man in black.
There was no deep-seated hatred between them, so they would never send an assassin to kill someone in such a small mountain village. Therefore, the two suspected that the man was after their general, so they followed him discreetly.
With their martial arts skills, the man in black was naturally completely unaware.
Because Han Yi's house was the easiest to find, not only was her house the largest in the entire Zhushan Village, but it was also the only house at the foot of the mountain, the man in black went straight to Han Yi's house at the foot of the mountain without thinking.
Upon reaching the corner, the man in black looked up at the height of the courtyard wall and leaped over it, demonstrating that his skills were not weak. Ye Yi and Ye Er exchanged a glance with each other before also leaping over.
Actually, there were some broken porcelain shards stuck in the wall of Han Yiyi's courtyard, but those things were only useful to ordinary petty thieves. They were of no use to those who had internal energy.
