Song Anxin almost threw up her breakfast. Was this guy using such sour words to bewitch the original owner?!
The problem is, Dong Xianghai, that scumbag, was one thing when he was a dashing, somewhat handsome scholar, but now he looks like a middle-aged, pot-bellied, greasy man...
At that moment, she felt like a million grass mud horses were galloping through her mind.
"Get out of the way, I'm leaving," Song Anxin said coldly.
Dong Xianghai showed no sign of backing down, his gaze fixed intently on Song Anxin.
The white rabbit fur collar around her neck accentuated her cool and aloof features, making her skin appear even whiter and her lips naturally red. As she held the plum blossoms, her graceful movements captivated him from afar. He never expected to encounter his old lover again, who was not only still as beautiful as before but even more charming.
Song Anxin felt even more nauseous at his greasy gaze. Without waiting for him to move aside, she walked around Dong Xianghai and started walking away. But suddenly, a groping hand appeared on her shoulder.
"Don't worry, don't rush off..."
Dong Xianghai grabbed her.
Without a second thought, Song Anxin twisted his hand behind his back with a grappling technique.
"Ah, ah! It hurts, it hurts! Anxin, what are you doing? Let me go..."
Dong Xianghai immediately let out a pig-like scream.
Song Anxin pushed him forward, sending him flying far away. Dong Xianghai stumbled and fell face-first into the snow and mud on the side of the road, causing the plum trees beside him to tremble.
"What happened? Cousin, what are you doing here? Are you alright?"
Black Wolf and his men, who were in charge of security, came over when they heard the noise. They were completely confused when they saw the man who had fallen to the ground and his cousin who was standing there.
Song Anxin said, "It's nothing, a guest just accidentally bumped into a tree. Please help him up."
Just then, Granny Wei arrived. "My lady, I've picked all the flowers. Let's go back."
Song Anxin glanced indifferently at Dong Xianghai lying on the ground, then turned and left without looking back: "Okay, I'm leaving now."
Dong Ruhai was helped up by Black Wolf and his men. His clothes were covered in mud and he looked extremely disheveled, with a completely bewildered expression on his face.
How could An Xin be so cold and ruthless towards him? Also, what did that old woman call her just now? "Gongren"?
Before Song Anxin had even left the plum garden, she ran into an acquaintance, none other than Old Madam Su, Mingyue's maternal grandmother and mother of Su Jinxiu.
"Hui Gongren, what a coincidence! I heard from Tao Hua that your eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. You are truly blessed. Congratulations!"
After that incident, Madam Su sent many gifts to Linjia Village to thank her. Every time she was promoted, Madam Su would send congratulatory gifts. Even when Song Mei gave birth, she sent congratulatory gifts some time ago. She is an old lady who remembers kindness.
Song Anxin greeted her with a smile, saying, "Why doesn't Madam Su come to my residence for a visit?"
Madam Su said, "I wanted to go, but I was afraid of disturbing Consort Hui."
At this moment, a woman's voice rang out: "Aunt, is this Lady Huigong?"
Song Anxin then noticed that there was another woman behind Grandma Su. She looked to be about the same age as Song Anxin, and was dressed in very fine materials. Her headdress was simple yet exquisite, and it was clear that she was wearing a high-quality item.
The woman was rather thin and her face looked pale, as if she were ill, but she was clearly a beautiful woman.
"Oh dear, I almost forgot. This is Lady Hui, and this is my best friend from when I was still a young lady. Her name is Yu Zhiniang." Madam Su introduced the two to each other: "Zhiniang, this is Lady Hui. Didn't you always say you wanted to know what Lady Hui looked like? Well, you really did run into her today."
Yu Zhiniang emerged from behind Old Madam Su, bowed respectfully to Song Anxin, and said, "Zhiniang greets Lady Hui. Lady Hui, your deeds have already spread to Liuzhou. We women admire your talent and the fact that you obtained the title of Lady of the Imperial Decree through your own efforts. I never expected that I would be so fortunate to meet you upon my arrival."
Looking into her eyes, Song Anxin knew that she was not lying, nor was there any hint of flattery. On the contrary, her eyes were very clear and bright, and Song Anxin couldn't help but feel a sense of goodwill towards this weaver.
"Weaver Girl, you're from Liuzhou? You don't seem to be in good health. What brings you here in the twelfth lunar month?"
Madam Su said, "Hui Gongren looks good. Actually, Zhi Niang came to seek medical treatment. Isn't there a highly skilled doctor named Hao in Xia Shi Village, Qi'an County? Zhi Niang wrote to me saying that she has been ill for a long time and has not recovered, so I asked her to come here and give it a try. She has been at my residence for more than half a month now."
Song Anxin understood. She also knew Doctor Qi was a good doctor. She asked, "Is the Weaver Girl feeling any better?"
Yu Zhiniang said, "After being treated by Doctor Hao for more than half a month, I'm much better now. My aunt saw that I was cooped up in the house every day, so she said she would take me out for a walk. I've heard some businessmen in Liuzhou talk about the Linjia Village tourist area, so I wanted to come and see it."
As the group was chatting, a familiar male voice suddenly broke in.
"Madam, Aunt, so you're here! I've been looking for you everywhere."
Song Anxin looked at the man walking towards her and thought to herself how unlucky she was. But it turned out that Dong Xianghai was actually the Weaver Girl's husband. It's true that all beauties are blind.
Dong Xianghai was taken aback when he saw Song Anxin. He hadn't expected to run into her again so soon. He had already inquired and found out that Anxin was the peasant woman who had been promoted one after another recently.
No wonder her clothes and appearance are so extraordinary. I had heard that she married into a farming family, and I thought she would become a rough country woman.
Seeing Dong Xianghai's disheveled appearance, covered in mud, Yu Zhiniang said calmly:
"Didn't you go to the restroom? How did you end up like this?"
Dong Xianghai said, "It's nothing. I just tripped and fell while I was out admiring the plum blossoms."
Yu Zhiniang didn't ask any more questions or show any concern. She asked, "Where's Lin'er? Didn't she go with you just now? Why haven't I seen her?"
"Mother, I'm here."
A beautiful young woman walked over slowly.
Yu Zhiniang smiled and affectionately took her hand, saying, "Come, let me introduce you. This is the renowned Lady Hui." She then turned to Song Anxin and said, "Lady Hui, this is my daughter, Yu Lin'er."
Yu Lin'er bowed respectfully: "Is Lady Hui well?"
After bowing, she stared at Song Anxin with an indescribable look in her eyes.
Song Anxin nodded in acknowledgment, finding Yu Lin'er's gaze strange; she probably didn't recognize Yu Lin'er.
Wait, what's her name? Yu, Lin'er!
Song Anxin's eyes swept over Dong Xianghai. Oh, so he's marrying into the family.
