But these two pancakes without any oil could not make up for a long day. Before evening, Wang Zicheng was already crying with hunger again.
Wang Fengxue was harassed and had no choice but to put on his shoes and limp out the door for his own sake.
Wang Zicheng waited and waited at home alone... waited and waited... from dusk till late at night. He was so sleepy and hungry that he could not bear it any longer. After drinking a bellyful of water, he finally fell asleep.
However, hunger was much stronger than sleepiness, and he woke up in the middle of the night, but still could not see Wang Fengxue.
His stomach was protesting so much that he couldn't wait any longer, so he got up, put on his clothes and went out.
He just stood at the door looking at the dark night, not knowing where to go. When Wang Fengxue left, he didn't say where he was going.
Suddenly, there were continuous barking sounds of dogs, and vaguely heard noisy shouting from somewhere, and then a fire was lit in the southwest direction of the village.
Wang Zicheng plucked up his courage and followed the path of the fire.
"It was them. They were the ones who were here in the middle of the night, messing with the shoes and igniting the firewood pile."
"Yes, that's them. I saw them rolling around naked together. Tsk... I'm afraid they'll get stye!"
"I saw it too. They hadn't even put on their clothes when I arrived!"
"I never thought that they were having an affair."
"Pan Dalian, you have a man! How can you do such a thing?"
"It makes no difference whether she has that man or not. She is lying on the kang, unable to move."
"I've heard before that Pan Dalian was dishonest and had affairs with many men. Turns out it's true!"
"This monster claims to be from Pingdu, and says he has lived in the imperial city since he was a child. He is a royal relative, and royal relatives do such sneaky things!"
"Bah! How despicable."
"What royal relative? I think he's just an old rogue."
"Before, he was bragging about being a great hero on the battlefield and saving the life of some general or commander! I think that must be fake. He was just bragging."
"I believed what he said before and took good care of him. Now it seems that he must be talking nonsense just to trick us into taking better care of him so that he can be lazy and do less work."
"So that's what happened! This old fellow is really bad and cunning."
"That's right, how could a hero do such a thing as stealing people?"
"I think this old rogue is with Pan Dalian for some other purpose!"
"Oh... yes, it must be to get some delicious food from the cafeteria. Pan Dalian has always been in charge of cooking in this cafeteria."
"Yes, I once saw Pan Dalian quietly put a package into the hands of this old rogue."
…
"You are talking nonsense, I didn't do that." Although it was dark at night, Pan Dalian still avoided everyone's gaze.
"I'm not some old rogue. I just saved the chief's life. I'm just temporarily assigned here and will be back in Pingdu soon."
Wang Fengxue only felt his old face burning because of the humiliation from everyone and also because of the scorching heat from the pile of firewood that had not yet been completely extinguished.
"Tsk! You? You can save people? If someone like you is in real danger, no one can escape from you. You're lucky enough to escape without stepping on others."
"Go back to Pingdu? Will Pingdu still want someone like you?"
"You also said that the chief you saved was the one named Xiang from Daheishan Village. Since he is not good to you, why can he go back but you can't?"
"Maybe he did something like this in Pingdu and was chased here by Pingdu."
"It is said that if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. This old guy hooked up with a married woman, and the grandson he taught went to cheat on a silly girl. Tsk tsk tsk... Such a family is really rare!"
"It seems that men will have to keep an eye on their women, and adults will have to keep an eye on their girls, to prevent them from being harmed by these two grandparents."
"Bah! Your women are the ones who need to be watched. Do you think all women are Pan Da Lian?"
"What do you mean? My wife is not that kind of person."
"Your wife isn't that kind of person, but other people's wives are that kind of person?"
"I……"
"Shut up, what are you making so much noise for? Put out the fire quickly, or you won't even have breakfast tomorrow." The village chief shouted with a fierce look on his face.
"Grandpa..." Wang Zicheng pulled the corner of Wang Fengxue's clothes.
He saw that most people had gone to put out the fire, so he dared to come over.
"Why are you here? Go home quickly." Wang Fengxue's heart skipped a beat, thinking that this was the end. Wang Zicheng must have heard people's discussions.
"You are a monster, a despicable thing. How dare you come to my house? I will scratch you to death." Suddenly, a figure rushed towards Wang Fengxue.
Wang Fengxue's injuries had not healed yet, his legs and feet were not flexible, and he had just done intense "exercise" so his body was weak. He was knocked to the ground by the sudden attack.
The person on top of him attacked with great precision. As Wang Fengxue fell to the ground, he felt five burning pains running down his face. The pain was immediately followed by a heat and something wet coming up.
Because the back of his head hit the ground first when he fell, his vision went dark and he lost the ability to resist.
Then the severe pain on my face came one after another, and the humidity became higher and higher.
"Oh! It's Pan Dalian's mother-in-law."
"Pan Dalian's mother-in-law is one of the best fighters in our village. Now we're going to have to wait and see!"
"Look, Wang's face has been scratched."
"Isn't this face going to be ruined? Wasn't it just scratched by the captain's wife that day?"
"It's okay. People like this are thick-skinned and should not be teased."
…
People were carelessly putting out the fire while they were fully focused on eating the melons. The fire was not big, it only burned half of the firewood pile, but the melons were gone after they were eaten.
"Don't hit my grandpa, you old man."
Seeing that the other party was just a white-haired old lady, Wang Zicheng did not try to hide behind Wang Fengxue as he did last time when he was beaten by the men from the captain's family. Instead, he kicked the old lady on the back.
"Wow!"
"ah!"
“Huh!”
"hiss!"
"sky!"
“Wow!”
"ah!"
…
Everyone stared with their eyes wide open and uttered monosyllables, rubbed their eyes, and then tried hard to look, it was over, their eyes were dirty!
Wang Zicheng's kick caused the old lady to fall forward, and her mouth touched that of Wang Fengxue.
"Ugh!" Wang Fengxue's stomach churned.
If being knocked down just now caught him off guard, then this unexpected "kiss" made him doubt his life. But it really made Wang Fengxue sober up instantly. To be more precise, he was awakened by the sudden stench.
