As soon as she finished shouting, Lu Ting pushed open the door and came in.
"Your clothes are wet. I washed them for you and are drying them on the fire. You can wear my clothes first."
Lu Ting said this without looking away as he walked to the somewhat worn-out wardrobe and took out a clean short-sleeved shirt and pants and placed them on the bed.
"Call me when you're done changing."
After Lu Ting finished speaking, he closed the door and went out.
He didn't even look at Ying Xixi who was sitting in the bathtub during the whole process, which made Ying Xixi feel clearly respected.
Lu Ting's clothes were too big, and when worn on Ying Xixi, it looked like a child stealing adult clothes, which was a bit funny and amusing.
When Lu Ting came in and saw this, he smiled, but not in a mocking way.
He deftly rolled up Ying Xixi's trouser legs and sleeves, and rubbed her wet hair with his big hands.
"That's cute. Sit down while I apply the medicine."
Lu Ting held Ying Xixi's shoulders and asked her to sit down. He took her hand and applied the cream on the back of her hand that was broken from beating Wang Cuihua.
If Lu Ting had applied medicine to her a little later, her wound would have healed almost immediately.
"It's just a minor injury, it's nothing."
Ying Xixi said this and retracted her hand.
"A minor injury is still an injury. If you want to hit someone in the future, just call me and I'll help you. Don't break the skin with your fists, or I'll feel bad."
Lu Ting said this in a rough voice, took out a dry towel from somewhere, stood up and wiped Ying Xixi's wet hair.
"Did you see me hit Wang Cuihua? She was the one who pushed me into the river first. If I hadn't been able to swim, I would have died.
I just don’t know if any villagers saw me beating her later.”
Ying Xixi was not afraid of being seen beating Wang Cuihua, she was afraid of being seen by others seeing Lu Ting carrying her home.
“I saw it, and I wanted to rush over to rescue you from the river, but luckily you climbed ashore quickly.
As for the villagers, I've checked. No one was around at the time. No one saw you hit Wang Cuihua, and no one saw me carrying you home."
Lu Ting knew what Ying Xixi was worried about, and after he said that, Ying Xixi felt relieved.
But what Ying Xixi didn't know was that Wang Cuihua saw with her own eyes that Lu Ting took her home.
At this time, by the river, Wang Cuihua sat up with messy hair.
One side of her cheek was swollen and she looked dazed, still thinking about what Ying Xixi had just said.
"Cuihua? Cuihua, why are you like this?"
Fang Zhiqiang came running over from somewhere, and when he saw Wang Cuihua like this, there was a hint of disgust in his eyes.
Fang Zhiqiang failed to conceal his feelings well, so Wang Cuihua saw the indifference and disgust in his eyes as soon as she raised her eyes.
Wang Cuihua's heart sank, and the words Ying Xixi said echoed in her mind again.
"Cuihua, have you seen Ying Xixi? She seemed to be here to catch fish, but after catching fish for so long, she disappeared.
Lu Ting's wild man's house is nearby, so she wouldn't go to Lu Ting's house.
No, I have to go and see! If she is really at Lu Ting's house, I can catch her in the act!"
Fang Zhiqiang had evil thoughts in mind, his eyes rolling around, and he stood up and wanted to catch the adulterer.
Wang Cuihua's mind was in a mess, and her hands grabbed Fang Zhiqiang faster than her brain.
"Ying Xixi didn't go to Lu Ting's house. I saw her just now. She caught some fish and went to the back mountain."
Fang Zhiqiang paused and twitched the corners of his mouth.
"Fang Lang, why did you say those words to Ying Xixi that night? Wasn't that a good opportunity to divorce her?"
Wang Cuihua asked this question as calmly as possible.
Fang Zhiqiang looked around and saw no one, so he squatted down and coaxed Wang Cuihua.
"Cuihua, everything I said that night was a lie to Ying Xixi. Didn't we agree to get the money from her?
I haven't even gotten the money yet, so naturally I can't divorce her. Don't worry, Cuihua, as soon as I get the money, I will divorce her immediately and take you home!
I'm sorry to have to trouble you during this period."
Wang Cuihua looked at Fang Zhiqiang's usual 'affection' and the 'pampering' in his words, and sneered in her heart, but on the surface she cooperated as she did at the beginning and agreed obediently.
On the other side, Lu Ting dried Ying Xixi's hair and let her rest for a while while he went to grill the fish.
Lu Ting is a good cook and can make even a simple grilled fish taste delicious.
Ying Xixi smelled the aroma of fish, and her appetite was almost aroused.
"Eat it, but be careful with the fish bones."
Lu Ting brought the grilled fish into the house to Ying Xixi.
Ying Xixi thanked him and started eating. She squinted her eyes as she enjoyed the food so much.
Seeing this, the smile in Lu Ting's eyes deepened a little.
But when he saw Ying Xixi wearing his clothes, the clothes were too big and her snow-white skin was exposed at the collar.
Lu Ting's eyes turned red, his throat rolled up and down, and he forced himself to look away.
Ying Xixi stayed here for the whole afternoon, and her clothes were finally dry.
She was worried that the villagers would see her leaving Lu Ting's house, so she deliberately went around the foot of the mountain before returning to the village.
When she returned to Fang's house, she was faced with the hypocritical Fang scumbag who was always asking about her well-being with a fake smile.
"Xixi, you're back. You must be hungry. Mommy made dinner. Would you like to eat something?"
Ying Xixi didn't even bother to lift her eyelids to look at the scumbag, "I don't want to eat."
Fang Zhiqiang's face froze for a moment, then returned to normal.
"Do you want to take a shower? I'll boil some hot water for you."
"No."
Ying Xixi threw down two words and went back to the house.
The scumbag Fang's abacus beads were about to hit her face. Did he really think she didn't know what he was planning?!
After dark, Fang Zhiqiang personally knocked on the door with a basin of hot water.
"Xixi, I've prepared some water for you to wash your feet. Let me bring it in."
"Then come in."
Ying Xixi responded.
Anyway, no matter how Fang Zhiqiang tried to please her, she wouldn't let him get his way, so she didn't want to refuse his kindness.
Fang Zhiqiang pushed the door open and put the foot washing water in front of the bed, and pretended to squat down to wash Ying Xixi's feet.
But Ying Xixi refused.
She would feel disgusted if Fang touched any part of her body, even if it was her feet!
Fang Zhiqiang stood aside, smiling apologetically, and mentioned it casually.
"Xixi, I heard that you went to town some time ago and bought a lot of things."
Ying Xixi glanced at Fang Zhiqiang and said, "Did he tell you that I made hundreds of taels of silver and bought a lot of things on the street, but when I returned to the village, most of the things were gone?"
The fake smile on Fang Zhiqiang's face froze.
How did Ying Xixi know this!
"You really believe it? Those are all rumors. How could I possibly earn so much money just by going to town? If I really did earn so much money, do you think I wouldn't divorce you? And still wait for you to share my money?"
Ying Xixi said as she looked Fang Zhiqiang up and down.
"You brought this up all of a sudden. Could it be that you're here just to ask me for money? I was just wondering why you suddenly burst into tears and apologized to me that night.
Are you planning to cheat me out of my money?!"
