Her voice was smug, but as she spoke, she did not forget to observe Yunniang's expression.
Seeing that she showed no obvious hostility, Chi Ling'er was relieved.
It seems this woman has truly forgotten everything from before.
That's fine too. Once she gets those two old folks back, they'll never meet again in their entire lives.
"I'd like to."
After Chi Ling'er said so much, Yunniang only replied with one sentence: she picked up the dirty water from cleaning the pig trough, turned around and splashed it at Chi Ling'er.
"what you do?"
Chi Ling'er was so frightened that she tried to dodge, but unfortunately, she was not as fast as the water.
The basin of smelly water spilled all over her body and hair.
Yunniang wanted to throw her straight into the cesspool. Was this woman just looking for attention because she had nothing better to do?
A few people peeked out from the side, but Yunniang waved them off, telling them to go about their business.
"You...you actually dared to splash me."
Chi Ling'er wiped the disgusting stuff off her face. Her hair was still wet and she estimated she would have to wash it several times to get it completely clean.
As for her body, needless to say, she could smell a sour stench herself.
She hadn't expected Yunniang to be so fierce; she'd only said a few words since she arrived.
But was this woman faking it? Had she already remembered?
"Your breath stinks."
Yunniang spoke calmly, then turned and went to the next pigsty.
"Yunniang, you're just telling the truth!"
Seeing Yunniang squat down and start working again, Chi Ling'er's mood suddenly improved a lot.
So what if she's fierce?
She's just a peasant's wife, isn't she? Unlike me, I don't have to do anything and I have endless money.
"Hmph, I'm just here to tell you that Qingqing has returned to the capital. You and your daughter can just stay here and be country girls."
Feeling so uncomfortable, Chi Ling'er just wanted to change her clothes as soon as possible.
"Yeah?"
Yunniang ignored her. Was this woman so concerned about her status? Well, she wouldn't mind making things difficult for her.
However, thinking of those two old men, Yunniang really had no interest.
Actually, it's not Yunniang's fault; their impression of the Chi family was too bad.
Old Madam Chi and her entourage were unreasonable; it's no wonder Yunniang didn't want to continue the relationship with them.
But thinking about Chi Ling'er's behavior, she still felt unwilling.
What right does this woman have to come and mock me?
"Ah... Help!"
Yunniang was still thinking when she suddenly heard Chi Ling'er's panicked shout.
"What's wrong with this woman now?"
She couldn't be bothered with her anymore, so she just gave her some water to wash the pig trough. Why didn't this woman leave? Was she trying to cause trouble again?
Yunniang went out in a huff, only to find that several people were running towards the latrine.
"What's wrong?" Yunniang asked, puzzled.
"Yunniang, I heard that the woman who came looking for you just now fell into a cesspool!"
Yunniang was completely confused. Falling into a cesspool? How could that be? There seems to be a door over there, which is usually locked. You have to take the wooden stick out so that everyone can put pig manure in.
However, she still went over. The servant that Chi Ling'er brought was standing anxiously at the door, his face so wrinkled that it could almost trap a fly.
"Madam, Madam!"
He shouted, turning to look at the people working at the farm: "What are you looking at? Hurry up and get my wife out of here!"
Unfortunately, this isn't the Chi family's residence, and these people don't even know who Chi Ling'er is.
Several villagers watched curiously from outside, their faces filled with excitement, occasionally pointing and whispering.
Meanwhile, inside the small doorway, the pitiful Chi Ling'er was bobbing up and down in the cesspool.
It wasn't very deep inside; it wouldn't even reach a person's chest when they stood up. But at this moment, Chi Ling'er couldn't stand up at all. Seeing the suspicious objects on her head and face, everyone covered their noses. Yes, it did smell quite bad.
Seeing Yunniang arrive, the group excitedly said, "We don't know what happened just now. We suddenly heard someone fall into the cesspool, and when we came over, we saw this."
Yunniang was also curious and laughed, "Isn't this the time when people don't push pig manure? The door shouldn't be open!"
"Besides, we've been doing this for so long, and nobody has fallen in yet."
The group nodded in agreement. "Yes, I'm curious too. But this woman is really unlucky; I don't know how she fell down."
"Please hurry and get my wife out of here!"
The servant was sweating profusely with anxiety. If it were an ordinary pool of water, he would have jumped in to save the person long ago. But what lay ahead was a stinking cesspool. The servant tried to reassure himself several times, but still dared not jump in.
"How are we supposed to save her? We didn't throw her down there!"
Han Datou walked over, glared at the servant, and said coldly, "Look at the people here, they're all old, weak, women and children. As far as I can see, you're the youngest. Why don't you go down and rescue them?"
"Besides, that person downstairs is your master of the house. What does he have to do with our family?"
"Your wife is so noble, why are you sending us commoners down to rescue her? What if she feels she's no longer noble when she finds out later?"
Yunniang looked at Han Datou in surprise, never knowing for the first time that her father-in-law could be so eloquent.
In the past, Han Datou was a quiet and reserved person at home, and it was always Grandma Han who took care of everything, big and small.
It turns out he's quite eloquent; he probably learned it from Grandma Han recently.
Yunniang remembered Han Luoxue's suggestion to hand over the breeding farm to the two elderly people, which seemed to be a good idea.
