Chapter 298: The Time-Traveling Girl
The three-day banquet is over.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that something else might happen along the way.
Fortunately, everything ended smoothly.
Wen Yan and her family's lives finally returned to their former peace.
However, she found that more and more people liked to come to her house to chat and gossip.
Wen Yan simply built a pavilion in the open space outside the courtyard gate.
There were many seats, a teapot and some teacups.
For a time, the Wen Yan family became the news distribution center for the entire village.
Wen Yan gave the pavilion a name, and it was called "Bagua Pavilion".
She also learned about the news in Fulu Village and Aunt Jiao's side.
Huang Ying'er was really lost.
Wen Yan was a little worried about Huang Ying'er, and told Ying Zhilin about this matter: "If Huang Ying'er really gets into trouble, then we will..."
"Silly girl, what are you thinking?" Ying Zhilin interrupted her and tapped her forehead. "Huang Ying'er is already seventeen years old, half a year older than you. You are already responsible for the livelihoods of dozens of people. Can't she take responsibility for her own actions?"
Wen Yan nodded: "That being said, if something really happens to her, it will definitely affect your reputation, which is not good."
Besides, Huang Ying'er was just jealous.
Although her methods were despicable, she never hurt anyone.
After all, it is a life. If she falls into the hands of human traffickers, her life will be ruined.
However, Wen Yan just couldn't bear it.
Huang Ying'er had been causing trouble many times, and Wen Yan had done his best by not taking the initiative to deal with her.
Wen Yan rested at home for a few days and then started to busy herself with her own affairs.
Teach the mute girl to paint, find a massage master for the lady in Xindian, and decorate the courtyard of Xindian.
Ying Zhilin also resumed his study life between the academy and home.
Wen Yan recovered as full of energy after resting at home for two days.
She planned to return to the capital to handle business matters.
Before leaving, she heard the people in the gossip pavilion discussing the affairs of Aunt Jiao's family.
"Hey, have you heard? Huang Ying'er has been found."
Wen Yan became interested and sat aside to listen to their discussion.
"Ah... where has she been these days? Could it be that she was taken away by someone..." The man winked, and the evidence became ambiguous.
“That’s not the case.
She fell into a dry well on her way home.
Wasn't there a drought this year? The well was almost dry, and it took several days to get half a bucket of water. No one went to the well, so no one noticed she had fallen in.
It was discovered by a group of naughty children who went to play by the well."
"I heard that when she was rescued, she was just skin and bones and was only breathing her last breath."
"She said she fell down by herself, and you actually believed her. Maybe she was raped and thrown in there to destroy the evidence."
When Wen Yan heard this, she subconsciously felt unhappy.
She frowned slightly and glanced at a familiar aunt.
The auntie immediately retorted, "Auntie Guizhi, you can take random medicines, but you can't say random words.
When the person was rescued, dozens of pairs of eyes saw that Huang Ying'er had no other injuries except for the wound on her forehead caused by the fall, and her clothes were neatly dressed. How could she have met a bad guy?
You swear so confidently, did you see it with your own eyes? Or did you hire someone to rape Huang Ying'er?
If that's the case, Huang Ying'er and her family will not let you off."
Aunt Guizhi's face suddenly turned pale.
The Huang family suffered a loss in the village. If they hold a grudge against her, they will beat her to death!
She couldn't bear this kind of suffering, so she quickly denied it.
Said she was just imagining things.
Upon seeing this, Wen Yan got on the carriage and left.
It’s great that Huang Ying’er survived.
Wen Yan felt much more relaxed.
She can also return to the capital to manage her business with peace of mind.
Three days later.
Fulu Village, Huang Ying'er's room.
Huang Ying'er, who was so thin that only skin and bones were left, stared at the ceiling with a dull look.
She still couldn't believe it.
I actually traveled through time.
A 21st-century blogger of antique handicrafts unexpectedly traveled back to ancient times overnight.
She became a penniless peasant girl.
Huang Ying'er pulled the quilt over her face, whimpering, "God damn it, you're going too far! You're not a human being!
Just strike me to death with a thunderbolt and send me back to the modern era."
Outside, the sun was shining brightly, without a breath of wind, let alone lightning that could kill people.
Huang Ying'er rolled around in the bed, and finally chose to digest her emotions on her own and try to live on.
"I just don't believe it. I'm a 21st-century handicraft blogger with millions of followers. I would have starved to death in ancient times.
Watch how I use my bare hands to lead my family out of poverty in three months, make the whole village rich in one year, and become as rich as a country in three years.
As for Wen Yan, who caused his own disability..."
Huang Ying'er gently placed her hand on her chest and murmured to herself, "Don't worry, original owner. I will avenge you and redeem you for the injustice you've suffered."
Huang Ying'er waved her fists in the air several times, swearing solemnly.
She didn't even notice that a little kid of seven or eight years old was seeing all her actions through the crack in the window.
Then he trotted back to his room and threw himself into the arms of a young woman, saying with a frightened look, "Mom, my aunt seems to be crazy. She's so scary..."
She told her mother everything Wen Yan did.
The young woman gritted her teeth.
When will this sister-in-law be able to get married?
She is already seventeen years old, but she dreams of becoming an official's wife every day.
Now, Ying Zhilin not only failed to get married, but also almost lost her life.
Even in this situation, he can't settle down and still wants to continue making trouble.
She was really fed up with this sister-in-law.
Now that the marriage is over, I don’t know when I can get rid of this hot potato.
As time goes by, the weather gets colder.
Wen Yan traveled back and forth between the capital and Songshan Village every now and then, and lived a fairly leisurely and comfortable life.
That day, she returned to the capital from Songshan Village.
When passing by the street market in the county town, I saw a roadside stall surrounded by people in three layers, making a lot of noise, as if they were scrambling to buy something.
There was a faint aroma of braised food floating in the air.
Wen Yan was curious and lifted the curtain to take a look.
I immediately stopped a passing aunt and asked, "What are they selling over there? Why are so many people vying for it?"
"I'm selling braised food. It's delicious, fragrant and goes well with rice, without any meaty smell." As the aunt was talking, she probably recalled the taste of the braised food and immediately shook off Lixia's hand. "I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go grab the braised food. If I delay any longer, it will be sold out."
Wen Yan's appetite was piqued by the aunt's description, so he said to Li Xia, "Go and have a look. If there's anything new and exotic, we can buy some to try."
"Okay!" Lixia loves food the most, so she ran towards the stall.
After a while, she came back with two bags of things and handed them to Wen Yan: "Miss, this braised meat is not cheap. I spent double the price and bought it from others."
The thing was wrapped in lotus leaves, and Wen Yan couldn't see what was inside, but when he put it to his nose and sniffed it, he could smell a special meaty aroma that was really mouth-watering.
Wen Yan couldn't help swallowing and put the things aside: "Let's go back to the capital and have lunch together."
"Okay!" Lixia responded.
Pearl cracked the whip and the carriage drove out shakily.
The person who was busy working in the surrounded braised food stall was Huang Ying'er.
