"Mother, let go, let go."
The shepherd's mother grabbed Muzhi's ear and made him back away.
If she hadn't been worried that things would get out of hand if the fight continued, she would have wanted to teach this money-grubbing brat another lesson.
It's utterly shameful. Didn't she even consider how the Jia family would view Xiaoyu after she did this?
"Let go? I'll just break your ear. No matter what Xiao Jue says, this money still has to be paid back. From now on, you'll be responsible for working and earning money to pay it back, understand? Otherwise, I'll break your legs."
Makishi:......
"Mother, are you still my mother?"
"I would have thrown you out to feed the wolves long ago, why would I keep you here yelling at me?"
The shepherd's mother is still very angry, really angry. This unfilial son will turn the world upside down if he isn't taught a lesson soon.
"mother……"
Mu Zhi wanted to put on a melodramatic act, but his mother, no longer wanting to listen to him, gave him a stern look and then took his father to see a doctor.
Mu Xiaoyu wanted to follow, because that was five taels of silver, and she was very envious. She knew from the beginning that the Jia family was rich, but she didn't expect them to be able to take out five taels of silver so easily.
If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have let Mu Xiaoyu marry him. She would have secretly switched the bride and groom, and now she would be the one living a good life.
However, she couldn't let her image as a good daughter be ruined, so she went along with her. But when she passed by Chen Hua, she glanced at her and her eyes were filled with jealousy.
Chen Hua: ...
She didn't know what to say. After all, she had no memory and didn't know what would happen. These people also had no memory; they were just characters, so there was no need to take it to heart.
"Muzhi, you go with them."
Mu Zhi wanted to walk over to Xie Sichen to continue their conversation, but his mother, who had stopped, called out to him, and he immediately followed her reluctantly.
Now only Chen Hua, Xie Sichen, and Xia Xue remain here.
Xia Xue's gaze towards her wasn't particularly affectionate, suggesting that her familiarity with Mu Xiaoyu could only be considered as that of sisters.
"Little Fish, do you want to eat? I'll make you some."
The events that just happened didn't seem to have much of an impact on her at all.
"No need, let's sit at the table in the yard and chat, shall we?"
Mu Xiaoxue didn't know what she suddenly wanted to talk to her about, but she nodded and sat down first.
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu sit down, and Jia Jue sitting next to her, he felt a little uncomfortable.
Shen Hua observed that she didn't seem like a rural girl. Her posture was elegant, and she was very polite when looking at people, as if she had received some kind of education or been influenced by some kind of environment.
"What do you want to talk about?"
"Well, I accidentally bumped my head last night and forgot some things. Could you tell me about them?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoxue first looked at Jia Jue, because only the Jia family could have injured Mu Xiaoyu. Otherwise, given Mu Xiaoyu's previous impulsiveness, it would have been impossible for her to bump her head and lose her memory.
"It has nothing to do with Jia Jue, I just accidentally bumped into it myself," Shen Hua quickly said.
Because she felt that if Xia Xue continued to look, Xie Sichen would exude a cold aura, which would frighten her.
"Yes! Since you've forgotten, that's a good thing. Those memories weren't good anyway, so it's better not to remember them. It's actually beneficial for you," Mu Xiaoxue said earnestly.
Shen Hua: "Big sister, right? I know that sometimes forgetting is a good thing, but living without any understanding and abandoning those memories is meaningless. So I want to know, even if I can't carry those memories back, I'm prepared to accept them."
"I knew this would happen."
Hearing that Mu Xiaoyu insisted on knowing, Mu Xiaoxue wasn't surprised at all; clearly, if Mu Xiaoyu herself were here, she would have made the same choice.
"Since that's the case, I'll tell you what I know. Actually, I don't know much. I came home three months ago. Before that, I was working as a maid outside. My understanding of you is that you are lively, cheerful, and playful, like a tomboy. However, you are not in good health and are sometimes very weak. We don't know exactly what illness you have. We heard that this illness started when you were ten years old. Because it didn't affect your life, no one took it seriously. You continued to play as usual and didn't get along well with those two. Ever since the Jia family came to propose marriage, you have become sullen."
"Did I know any strange people before this?" Shen Hua asked.
Mu Xiaoxue thought for a moment and said, "There's no strange person, but your hobby is a bit unusual. You often hug a rather large, white-haired rat. You know, everyone in the village hates that kind of thing, and many people are afraid of it. Your parents have tried to persuade you about it many times, but it's no use. Mu Xiaole is particularly afraid of rats. I don't know if you deliberately kept a rat because of her, but then the rat disappeared, and then you married into the Jia family."
Mu Xiaoxue seemed to have something to say at this point, but after glancing at Jia Jue, she remained silent.
We now have a general idea of what kind of person Mu Xiaoyu is. It's very likely that Mu Xiaoyu cried and made a scene before, saying she didn't want to marry Jia Jue because she didn't like him and liked someone else instead.
Thinking back to the demon from before, and considering what Xia Xue said, Mu Xiaoyu liked a rat demon.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, sister."
Xia Xue hesitated for a moment, then nodded, stood up, and said, "Would you like me to give you a ride?"
"No need. What does eldest sister want to do in the future?"
Mu Xiaoxue was also taken aback by the question she was asked. After a long pause, she finally said, "I don't do anything. I just stay at home doing farm work and waiting for the wedding."
"Are you getting married?"
Shen Hua was somewhat surprised, but judging from her age, she was indeed at the age to get married. Even Mu Zhi, who looked like he should be married, was not.
"Yes, yes, it was an engagement we made when we were little. I'm coming home this time to get married and then be a good wife and mother."
This idea is really apt. I just wonder if Xia Xue will jump up when she remembers it later. The Xia Xue that Shen Hua knows is not so well-behaved.
"Okay, you know Mu Xiaole and Mu Zhi..."
"I know what you're going to ask. Mu Xiaole isn't their biological child. Her parents brought her back from a trip when she was little. You don't need to think about it. Mu Zhi is interested in her, but that's not surprising. Several people in our village are interested in her. She's very smart, and none of them have come to propose marriage."
Before Chen Hua could finish speaking, Mu Xiaoxue answered her question.
Chen Hua: ...
They are quite clever, but they haven't used their cleverness in the right way. Aren't they afraid of capsizing later?
"Rumble, rumble... splash, splash..."
