Han Luoxue's eyes turned cold; she hadn't expected Xu Ermazi to be such a scoundrel.
She hates abusive men the most. Even though she dislikes Han Juhua a bit, Han Luoxue still feels sorry for her when she sees her like this.
Zhou Jie's eyes were blazing with anger. She had never encountered a man who treated his woman like this before.
"What a jerk." Zhou Jie clenched her fists. What should she do if she felt like hitting someone?
"She's my wife, I bought her. What's wrong with me hitting her a few times if she doesn't listen to me?"
"I've had it for over half a year, and it hasn't even conceived a single chick. What happened to me? I bought a hen that doesn't lay eggs?"
Xu Ermazi shouted angrily, "I paid a high price for it back then!"
He went hungry for so long that he lost several pounds.
"You're talking nonsense. My chrysanthemum was pregnant before, but you beat her until she lost it."
Meng argued loudly that her daughter was not infertile.
"Hmph, you can't even protect your own child, and you still have the nerve to talk like that?"
"Besides, I can only give her a light scolding. Babies aren't that easy to lose."
"Maybe she's just lying to me."
Xu Ermazi spoke with conviction, becoming more and more convinced of his own reasoning.
Han Luoxue and Zhou Jie were both stunned; there were still such shameless people.
Look at the visible injuries on Han Juhua's body; these weren't just light bumps, were they?
"you……"
Meng didn't know what to say. She was usually sharp-tongued, and it was rare for her to be at a loss for words.
"Xu Ermazi, right? Let's not talk about the past for now. Today we're here to redeem Han Juhua."
"no."
Xu Ermazi refused without even thinking.
He used to use exorbitantly priced grain, but now grain is not so precious.
Every household has seeds, and they are quite good seeds, much better than what they used to grow.
He'll never have to worry about food or drink again, so why would he give his wife back to someone else?
"I'll use three times, four times, whatever. I just want to bring my daughter back. Waaah, Chrysanthemum will die if she stays here any longer."
"I want to go home, I want to go home!"
Han Juhua cried out, then suddenly raised her head, looked at the radiant Han Luoxue, and began to kowtow to her forcefully:
"Sister, I was wrong. I shouldn't have coveted what didn't belong to me. Please forgive me and save me."
"I...I promise I'll behave myself from now on and listen to you. I'll never do anything you don't like..."
"Sister, I really know I was wrong, please, please."
As Han Juhua spoke, she kowtowed forcefully. Her strength was so great that the sound of her kowtowing could be heard even on the loess soil.
"They really are sisters."
"But it doesn't look like it at all; the difference is too great."
"This girl is really pretty. I've never seen such a beautiful girl before."
"Shh, keep your voice down, do you know who she is?"
This place is not in the same town as Wuling Town, so not many people know Han Luoxue.
Who is it?
"The only person who could get our Magistrate Su to accompany her personally and be so careful is Han Luoxue."
"Ah, is this the seed she provided for us?"
"Or what?"
"Hiss, how come I didn't know that before? If I had known, I should have..."
The crowd looked at Han Juhua with a more scrutinizing gaze.
Having such a capable younger sister, and still getting sold off herself, this Han Juhua is quite something.
Did she mean to offend Han Luoxue based on what she just said?
"alright."
Han Luoxue was also speechless. Couldn't she explain her meaning just by coming over?
"Xu Ermazi, tell me, how can we get her released?"
Han Luoxue felt annoyed; there were too many unreasonable people these days.
"Simple, just give me a new wife."
Wow, this Xu Ermazi really dares to think big.
"Or you can do it instead."
Compared to Han Luoxue, his wife wasn't even a rock in a latrine.
"Hehe, you really dare to think that way."
Before Han Luoxue could speak, Zhou Jie scoffed:
"Don't you even look in the mirror? You think you're worthy?"
Why am I not worthy?
Xu Ermazi revealed a mouthful of yellow teeth; he knew perfectly well what was going on.
He heard what everyone was saying; those seedlings were provided by this woman.
If this woman becomes his wife, then what about her offspring?
Why doesn't he just get rich? When he's rich, he'll marry several young and beautiful girls, just like the lords in the city. That would be a wonderful life!
"Lord Su, what do you think?"
Han Luoxue was too lazy to talk to Xu Ermazi; she hadn't summoned Magistrate Su just for show.
“Xu Ermazi, you should be grateful that they gave you four times the amount of grain.”
Su Hu was speechless. This Xu Ermazi was clearly trying to cheat him out of money.
"My lord, you have wronged me. It's not that I don't want to let go, it's just... as you can see, I live all by myself, and I don't want my family line to end."
"There will be more food later, but my wife... my child is lost, where will we find her?"
Xu Ermazi wouldn't budge.
Su Hu wanted to simply take the person away, but there were too many onlookers, and he was worried about his reputation.
"Miss Han..."
As a county magistrate, he was afraid to speak to such a scoundrel in public.
"You won't release them, is that it?"
Han Luoxue smiled, a smile as beautiful and captivating as a snow lotus on a high mountain, so enchanting that Xu Ermazi felt his legs go weak.
"Unless you give me a wife as beautiful as you."
"Hehe, not a bad idea."
Han Luoxue's smile remained bright. She suddenly walked to the carriage she had just been sitting in and chuckled softly:
"Wangcai, have some fun with him."
With a whoosh, a black figure darted out of the carriage.
Only then did everyone realize that there were other people in the carriage.
Oh, it's not a person, it's a dog.
The jet-black Wangcai pounced on Xu Ermazi at lightning speed. Before Xu could even react, he was already knocked to the ground.
"Huh... what is that?"
Wangcai lay on top of Xu Ermazi, its dog eyes full of disdain:
You are the one who is worthless, your whole family are worthless.
The dog sized up Xu Ermazi with its eyes, and by then, Xu Ermazi had already screamed in fright:
"Let me go..."
As he spoke, he reached out to shoo Wangcai away.
Just then, his arm came over, and Wangcai took a bite without hesitation.
"ah……"
A bloodcurdling scream startled the onlookers, causing them to flinch.
Everyone unconsciously took a few steps back, especially those who had just been standing near the sedan chair, who felt a chill on their arms.
Luckily, that dog didn't go berserk, otherwise it wouldn't be Xu Ermazi who got bitten now.
Wangcai is a descendant of wolves, with half wolf blood.
One bite and blood immediately appeared; a piece of flesh was torn off.
It released its mouth, spat out the meat in disgust, and bit down on Xu Ermazi's other arm.
Another terrified scream rang out.
