Chapter 139 If You Still Dare to Look, I’ll Dig Out Your Eyes
She looked carefully at Yuan Xinhui's appearance and compared it with the aunt in her vague memory.
Seven years ago, when the original owner was escorting the coffin back to his hometown, he had met his aunt Yuan Xinhui. That year, his aunt was about thirteen years old and her appearance had not changed much from now.
It was just that they had only been together for three months and had never met again after that, so Yuan Wanru didn't recognize him at first.
Lu Jiangnian's gaze seemed to be outside, but his attention was actually always on Yuan Wanru.
After hearing the name outside, Yuan Wanru's expression obviously changed.
He couldn't help but ask, "Are you related to me?"
Her surname is Yuan, and this is Nanjiang County. She will reach her hometown, Guhuai Town, tomorrow, so it is not surprising to meet relatives.
Yuan Wanru nodded: "She's my aunt."
As she was about to get off the carriage, Aunt Pang had already come to the carriage and said anxiously, "Madam, this woman is the young lady."
Nanny Pang recognized him just now and hurried over from the carriage behind.
When the eldest young lady returned to her hometown, she was still young and had suffered the pain of losing her father, so she might not remember what her young aunt looked like.
Yuan Wanru lifted the car curtain: "Mammy, I recognized him too."
Lu Jiangnian got off first and stood beside the carriage, obviously waiting to help Yuan Wanru get off. Nanny Pang tactfully withdrew her hand and stood further away.
Seeing the eldest son and the eldest lady becoming more and more affectionate, she was extremely happy.
She just hoped that the two of them could consummate their marriage as soon as possible, and that the eldest young master's wife would become pregnant, then she would be truly at peace.
When Sun Huanzhi and his sister saw them coming out, they also came over.
Everyone heard what the couple said. Although they were able to save the child, it is difficult for a judge to judge family affairs. How can they help with what happens next?
Sun Haining frowned and looked at Yuan Wanru: "The child is innocent, we can't just watch him die."
"But this kind of thing is really inconvenient for us to intervene. We were able to save this child once, but I'm afraid we can't save him a second time."
This is what Sun Huanzhi meant. It's not that they are indifferent, but this couple is a married couple and the child's identity is unknown. After they offer a helping hand, they might end up in a difficult situation.
Yuan Wanru smiled and said, "What a coincidence, that person is my aunt. I will take care of this matter to the end."
Sun Haining looked surprised. He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that this woman turned out to be Wanru's sister-in-law.
If it's a relative, it's different and there's enough reason to intervene.
While the two were talking, Lu Jiangnian had already sent people to rescue Yuan Xinhui.
Yuan Xinhui escaped from the control of the peasant women and immediately stumbled towards Xuanying: "Jie'er, my child."
The child was back in her arms, and she cried with joy, holding the child and sobbing uncontrollably. The sadness in her voice made everyone present feel sad.
Yuan Wanru walked towards her, and Zeng Gui was already shouting in frustration: "What are you doing?"
"This is my family matter, what are you doing?"
The people behind him, obviously his relatives, also shouted angrily, "That's right, even if you are high-ranking officials, you can't protect a whore who committed adultery and gave birth to a bastard."
"This is our village's business, and it's not your turn as outsiders to interfere."
These people cursed so harshly, how could Lu Jiangnian tolerate it?
He picked up a dagger and threw it at a large rock in the distance. In an instant, the rock made a loud bang and broke into pieces, shocking the villagers into silence with fear in their eyes.
So scary!
It seemed like this person just threw something lightly, a stone as big as a cow, and it broke just like that?
Is this a human?
Yuan Xinhui came to her senses and realized that these noble people were helping her.
She gave a sad smile, turned to face Lu Jiangnian, and wanted to kneel down, but was supported by Aunt Pang who came over.
"useless."
The young aunt is the eldest son's elder, so wouldn't it be a mess if she kneeled down?
Zeng Gui saw Yuan Wanru at first sight. She was wearing an elegant green dress and exquisite jewelry on her head. Her unique charm in every move was so attractive that people couldn't take their eyes off her.
Fairy!
He had never seen such a beautiful woman before, and when he was obsessed with her, he was awakened by a gust of wind.
A strand of his hair fell down, and Zeng Gui realized that something had just brushed past his ear and cut off his hair.
The murderous look frightened him so much that his whole body went cold. He turned his head and saw the man who had just broken the boulder. He looked at him as if he were a dead man and said calmly, "If you keep looking at me, I'll dig out your eyes."
Zeng Gui immediately lowered his eyelids. This man was too scary. His ghost-like temperament made him frightened.
He believed that if he really kept looking, the man would really dig out his eyes.
Yuan Wanru had already walked to Yuan Xinhui's side. She looked at Yuan Xinhui and said, "Aunt, don't you recognize me?"
"I am Yuan Wanru, the daughter of Yuan Chuan."
It took Yuan Xinhui a while to react. What did she say?
She opened her eyes wide, opened her mouth slightly, and said stutteringly: "Wanru..., eldest brother's child..."
It seems unbelievable.
Yuan Wanru smiled slightly and nodded, "It's true. My second uncle wrote to me saying that he wanted to move the grave, so I came back specially. I didn't expect to meet my aunt."
Yuan Xinhui and Yuan Wanru had only spent a short time together, but she recognized that the noble girl in front of her was indeed the daughter of her elder brother Yuan Chuan.
Although the relationship between the aunt and niece is not deep, but at this moment, being able to meet a relative is really a great comfort for Yuan Xinhui who is in desperate situation.
Her tears fell: "Wanru, aunt..."
Bursting into tears.
Yuan Wanru patted her shoulder and said firmly, "Don't worry, aunt. If you have anything to say, just tell me slowly. I will help you."
She looked down at the child who was lying quietly in her arms.
The child was about seven or eight months old. He was a little thin, with a dark face, but his eyes were bright.
This child is also strange. No matter how big the thing happened, he never cried.
Could it be that...
Zeng Gui didn't dare to look at Yuan Wanru as he did before, but he couldn't ignore Yuan Xinhui either.
He saw Yuan Xinhui saying something to the nobles, and shouted anxiously: "You stinky woman, what nonsense are you talking about? You have the guts to cheat on someone, and you dare to give birth to a bastard. Even if the king of heaven comes, he can't save the bastard in your hands."
"No matter who you are, this woman committed adultery and gave birth to a child. According to our rules here, she must be drowned in a pond."
"I am a magnanimous man. I don't want her worthless life, but I want to save the life of that bastard. I have already done you a favor."
The quiet villagers also said, "That's right, which grown man can bear to raise a son for someone else?"
"Strangers, don't meddle in other people's business. We have our own rules."
