The door lock fell to the ground with a click.
Chen Yanfang breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door, and looked at Wen Xianuan and Huo Jue: "Wen Zhiqing, are you and Brother Jue okay?"
Wen Xia Nuan shook her head, but her face was completely red.
Huo Jue looked quite energetic as he supported Wen Xia Nuan as they walked out.
Chen Yanfang looked at Wen Xia Nuan's gloomy expression. She pursed her lips, with concern in her eyes: "Brother Jue, put Wen Zhiqing on my back. I'll carry her to my house to rest."
Huo Jue didn't expect that Wen Xia Nuan was fine in the granary just now, but became so weak after coming out.
Hearing Chen Yanfang's words, Huo Jue quickly helped Wen Xia Nuan climb onto Chen Yanfang's back.
Under the scorching sun, Wen Xia Nuan was also very angry and spoke little. Chen Yanfang did not dare to delay Wen Xia Nuan and walked very quickly.
"Oh, what's going on?"
When Auntie Pang saw Wen Xia Nuan being carried in, she quickly went to the house and took out a handkerchief: "Quick, wipe the sweat off everyone."
Aunt Pang watched them reach out to take it, and also wiped Wen Xia Nuan with a towel.
The coolness of the room eased Wen Xianuan's burning sensation. She forced herself to cheer up and looked at the caring gazes of the other three people: "I'm fine."
Chen Yanfang was the first to breathe a sigh of relief and waved her hand: "Oh, Wen Zhiqing, you almost scared me to death!"
Wen Xia Nuan smiled sheepishly, but Huo Jue couldn't really let go of his worry: "Are you really okay?"
Even though she could feel the heat all over her body, Wen Xia Nuan forced herself to nod, "It's okay."
Huo Jue couldn't be truly relieved. He looked at Wen Xia Nuan and always felt that it was not that easy to deal with women.
Auntie Pang handed the wet handkerchief in her hand to Wen Xia Nuan, and said seriously, "Wen Zhiqing, wipe it first. I'll get you some warm water."
Wen Xia Nuan didn't even have time to stop her. She glanced at Auntie Pang who had hurried in again. She stood up and quickly took the cup from Auntie Pang's hand: "Auntie Pang, thank you for your help."
Auntie Pang waved her hand and looked at Wen Xia Nuan with a smile: "You're welcome, Wen Zhiqing."
She glanced at Wen Xia Nuan and said, "However, Wen Zhiqing, how did you and Ajue get locked up in there?"
Auntie Pang had a guess in her heart. She glanced around at Wen Xia Nuan and Huo Jue. Wen Xia Nuan licked her dry lips and glanced at Auntie Pang: "Auntie Pang, Yanfang said before that she saw someone running past your door?"
Aunt Fat was startled, her eyes swept over her daughter, then glanced at Wen Xia Nuan, and smiled dryly: "Wen Zhiqing, this, this is indeed the case."
Chen Yanfang waved her hand, her eyes falling on Wen Xia Nuan: "Wen Zhiqing, don't be curious, you know that person too."
She said it carelessly: "It's Huo Chen!"
Huo Chen?
Wen Xia Nuan frowned. Although she did suspect Huo Chen, she didn't expect that he would actually have the courage to do such things!
Chen Yanfang looked at Wen Xia Nuan and said, "Wen Zhiqing, if you ask me, Huo Chen must be taking revenge on you because of what happened in the fields!"
Wen Xia Nuan also had this idea. Looking at Chen Yanfang, she thought for a moment and said, "I understand everything you said."
"So you're just going to let it go?"
Wen Xia Nuan looked at Chen Yanfang suspiciously: "Who told you that I would just let it go like this?"
The corners of her mouth curled up into a smile, her eyes fell on Chen Yanfang, and she said, "If we want to find him, it may not be that easy. We need to cooperate!"
Chen Yanfang was puzzled. Huo Chen looked at her suspiciously, and for a moment she didn't understand what Wen Xia Nuan was up to.
"Yanfang, come here, I want to talk to you properly."
Huo Chen looked at the two people whispering to each other and was not in a hurry to ask.
Chen Yanfang nodded and smiled at Wen Xia Nuan: "Don't worry, Wen Zhiqing, I know everything."
Wen Xia Nuan nodded: "Then we will go back first."
Chen Yanfang's eyes fell on Wen Xia Nuan and she replied, "Okay."
When Auntie Pang saw Wen Xia Nuan turning around and leaving, she couldn't help but be very curious: "What did Wen Zhiqing say to you?"
Chen Yanfang stared at her mother with a smile: "Mom, when we go to the fields later, you will see how I perform."
She was so mysterious, and although Aunt Fat was curious, she didn't say anything.
The afternoon sun was even hotter than the morning sun. Everyone rushed to the fields wearing straw hats. Chen Yanfang was weeding, and her eyes swept over the people around her.
"Mom, I don't know how Wen Zhiqing is doing now. I'm still worried about her!"
Chen Yanfang's words attracted the attention of the people around her: "What happened?"
Chen Yanfang pretended to be surprised: "Ah, you don't know yet?"
She covered her mouth and slapped it embarrassedly: "It's all because I spoke too fast and you all heard it!"
Some nosy people had already looked over at Chen Yanfang: "Yanfang, stop hiding this from us. Did something happen to Wen Zhiqing?"
"Yeah, didn't I just hear you say that something happened to her?"
Chen Yanfang was embarrassed, and Auntie Pang waved her hand: "Oh, go to work, go to work!"
"Aunt Fatty, just tell me! What's going on?"
Aunt Fatty frowned in embarrassment at being urged, glanced at her daughter out of the corner of her eye, and finally said, "Oh, this is what happened..."
She told the story that Wen Zhiqing and Huo Jue were locked up in the granary.
The villagers around all exclaimed in surprise.
They looked at each other, and some couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Who is so cruel? They actually locked people up in here in such hot weather!"
"If this goes wrong, someone could die!"
"Don't tell me, I actually saw the second grandson of the Huo family walking by in a panic at noon!"
“I saw that too!”
Li Mei was weeding in the fields, but when she heard the group talking about her son, she paused and said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
She stared at these gossips with burning eyes: "My son just took a walk on the road at noon, why did you say he was so panicked?"
"Li Mei, how could we not know what kind of person your son is?"
"Didn't Huo Chen say he was working in town? He doesn't usually come back to the village. Even if he did, he would just stay at home. Why would he come out? And why is he so sneaky and flustered?"
Li Mei's face turned pale. "I think you're just jealous that my son is doing better than those kids in your family, so you're being rude and casually bringing him up. I'm telling you, I'm not going to let this go!"
