This seemed like a good opportunity to avoid their sight and escape, but Jiang Xia stood still, just carefully observing the old man's movements with his peripheral vision.
Soon the old man turned around and came out. He snorted and glanced at Jiang Xia, and seemed very satisfied with Jiang Xia's behavior just now. He threw the iron chain in his hand into the inner room.
"You are quite honest." The old man said. He had originally thought that if the little girl lied to him and took the opportunity to run away, he would catch her, tie her up with the chain and break her legs. After all, she could still do the wedding and have a baby even with a broken leg.
The old man glanced at Jiang Xia Cangqi's face and felt a little relieved.
It seems that he is a really honest and timid person.
Jiang Xia breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the old man let go of the chain. She quickly calculated the current situation in her mind. She only had one day to chance. The old man must have only loosened the rope for her temporarily and left to save face in the village.
The only thing she could do now was to either delay time and try to delay until Lu Yuanting found her, or find a way to escape. As for how to escape, she had no idea yet, so she could only take it one step at a time.
Jiang Xia bit her lip and tried her best to comfort herself and calm herself down.
She had to go, and when she got back she would teach Song Yanyan a lesson.
After the old man tidied up, he took his silly son and Jiang Xia for a walk around the village. During the time, the silly son followed Jiang Xia all the time. As long as Jiang Xia walked to the side, he would follow. It was obvious that he listened to his father and wanted to keep an eye on Jiang Xia.
"Everyone come to my house for the wedding banquet in the evening. Look, this is the wife I found for my son." The old man walked in the village, greeting the villagers as he walked.
The people in this village looked at Jiang Xia with uncomfortable gazes and smiled.
"Old Wang, you are amazing. The daughter-in-law you found is so obedient. She follows you obediently without being tied up with a rope." The man spoke, and after saying this, he turned his eyes and looked at Jiang Xia, staring at her very directly and blatantly.
The old man was obviously very happy to be praised and felt that he had earned face.
"Old Wang, the daughter-in-law you found can be loaned out after the wedding. You also know my situation. I can't get a wife. Don't worry, I will definitely give you the money." The man licked his lips and spoke again. The look in his eyes made people feel sick.
Jiang Xia got goose bumps all over her body, her face was pale, and she even felt a little nauseous. She pinched her palms, trying not to show any abnormality, and thought carefully about what the old man had just said. The old man was planning to hold a wedding banquet in the evening. This wedding banquet was an opportunity, and everyone in the village would come.
If she has medicine, that would be fine, or if she has the opportunity to come into contact with anything related to medicine.
Just as the old man was taking Jiang Xia to recognize people's faces in the village, a voice was heard not far away and someone ran out in a panic.
"The daughter-in-law of the Zhang family is about to give birth! Who among you can deliver the baby if she can't?"
