Chapter 191: Recognize the Thief as Your Father
The witch stared at Pei Jingchuan motionlessly, her eyes full of amazement. How could there be such a handsome man!
Originally, she thought Pei Jingyuan was the most handsome man she had ever seen in her life, but she didn't expect to see a man who was more handsome than Pei Jingyuan!
She grew up in a bandit den in the mountains, and the bandits she met were rough and untidy. They were exposed to the sun and rain all year round, and their skin was dark, yellow and rough. Even if there were a few good-looking features, they were covered up. In addition, the soil and water in Yuzhou did not seem to support people, and even if she walked on the streets of Yuzhou, she rarely saw very handsome men.
Pei Jingchuan and Xu Qingyan naturally saw the amazement in the witch's eyes. Pei Jingchuan felt unhappy and his temperament suddenly turned cold.
Xu Qingyan looked at the witch without any hesitation, and couldn't help but sighed in her heart: [It seems that this witch is also obsessed with looks! Looking at her like this, I'm afraid she is fascinated by my husband's beauty. She won't be attracted to my husband like Gu Yina? Originally, the witch saved Pei Jingyuan because she was attracted by his appearance. She grew up in that bandit's nest and had never seen any handsome men. When she first saw Pei Jingyuan, she thought he was the most handsome man in the world and fell in love with him at first sight. Now look at her eyes, haha... seeing my husband, she realized that there are people who are better than you, and there are mountains beyond mountains! However, she is going to be heartbroken, and my husband has been mine for a long time! ]
Pei Jingchuan paused when he heard this, and was stunned, with a strange feeling in his heart. For the first time, he felt that his good-looking appearance was a problem. Why did so many women want to hit on him recently? However, when he heard Xu Qingyan's last sentence, he couldn't help but smile.
"Who are you?" At this time, the witch slowly reacted and looked at Xu Qingyan and the others nervously and asked.
Xu Qingyan smiled faintly and said, "Don't be afraid! We won't hurt you, we are here to help you. The man you saved is my husband's younger brother."
"Your husband?" the witch asked in surprise, her eyes looking at Pei Jingchuan next to Xu Qingyan.
"That's right! He is my husband." Xu Qingyan replied with a smile.
A trace of disappointment flashed across the eyes of the witch. It turned out that he was already taken! It was so disappointing. It seemed that only the man she picked up belonged to her. Although she was a face control and liked good-looking people, she also had principles and would never destroy other people's families. She gave up on this good-looking man in front of her.
In just such a short moment, the witch gave up all her thoughts about Pei Jingchuan. She then seriously thought about the question Xu Qingyan had just asked. They said that the man they saved was their brother? Why should she believe it?
So, the witch raised her chin and asked, "How can you prove it? What if you have bad intentions? I have to wait until this young master wakes up and ask him before I can believe you!"
"There's no rush. We're not here to take him away today, but to find you." Xu Qingyan looked at her and said.
"Looking for me? What do you want to see me for?" The witch was even more confused, and her almond-shaped eyes widened.
"We are here to take you to see someone and tell you something about your parents." Xu Qingyan said.
"My parents?" The witch could no longer remain calm when she heard Xu Qingyan's words.
This was the first time she met the girl in front of her. She wanted to tell her about her parents. This made her wary and confused. She had lost her parents when she was six years old. She had a deep impression of them. They died in an accident and she did not see them for the last time. When she saw her parents, they were already cold corpses. Later, Uncle Li raised her.
The woman in front of her looked about the same age as herself, so how could she know anything about her parents? So, with some doubts, she followed Xu Qingyan.
"You... who are you?" The witch followed Xu Qingyan to a yard. When she saw the two familiar faces in the house, she was so shocked that she began to stutter.
The man with a broken arm and the blind woman felt an inexplicable panic when they heard the voice of a strange woman. They looked at Xu Qingyan who was standing beside them. Xu Qingyan nodded at them, and the man with a broken arm's eyes trembled violently.
"Are you the eldest lady?" the man asked tremblingly.
After hearing this familiar voice, the witch immediately broke down and burst into tears, saying, "Uncle He, Aunt Liu, how did you become like this? Where have you been all these years? Uncle Li said that you fell off the cliff and died!"
That year, her parents were murdered. When she rushed over, she did not see her parents' maids and servants. The current bandit leader Uncle Li told her that Uncle He and Aunt Liu fell off the cliff after being stabbed.
"Hmph! Was it that old thief Li Feng who told you this? He is truly shameless!" When mentioning the bandit leader Li Feng, He Bo's anger instantly surged from the bottom of his heart.
The witch realized something was wrong, looked at Uncle He strangely and asked, "Uncle He, what do you mean by that? Uncle Li has raised me all these years, and he has been very good to me."
"Miss, you have been deceived by him! Li Feng is not a good person. Your parents were killed by him!" Uncle He said with heartache when he saw the appearance of the witch.
He knew that the truth would be a great blow to the witch, but if he didn't tell her, he would feel sorry for his master. How could he look at his master's daughter and recognize a thief as her father?
Sure enough, when the witch heard this, she was shocked and her eyes were full of disbelief.
She murmured absentmindedly, "How...how is this possible! Weren't my parents killed by the soldiers sent by the imperial court? The damn imperial court thought my parents were bandits and must have been extremely evil, so they wanted to kill them all."
Back then, her parents were the bandit leaders of Yuzhou Bandit Mountain, but her parents were not the kind of bandits who killed innocent people. They were forced to become bandits, and after becoming bandits, they only robbed corrupt officials or those unscrupulous businessmen and evil people, and never attacked ordinary people.
"He lied to you! Li Feng designed to kill your parents in order to become the new boss and take away their power and money! Back then, he took advantage of your parents' kindness and lied to them that he was in danger. Your parents fell into his trap in order to save him. And your old aunt and I did fall off the cliff. Fortunately, God has eyes and we didn't die. We just broke an arm and one of our eyes was blinded by a tree branch." He Shu said to the witch with heartache.
The witch listened to this, and her face gradually turned pale. If what Uncle He said was true, then she had grown up next to her enemies all these years. Over the years, ever since she heard Uncle He say that her parents were killed by the imperial court, she hated the imperial court to the core, and even felt that good people didn't get good rewards.
So, she helped Uncle Li do many things that harmed the court. She would harm all the court officials who passed through Yuzhou with property, whether they were good or bad. Now that she thought about it, was she wrong?
