61. Village
"I brought you a daughter-in-law—!"
As the bright young man's voice fell, Yun Zhihe could clearly feel the woman's daze.
Not only the woman called "mother", but even Yun Zhihe was stunned.
I don’t know whether I feel helpless or want to laugh.
The young boy seemed to have not noticed anything yet. He lifted Yun Zhihe off the horse and ripped open the sack, revealing Yun Zhihe's face.
Her face was flushed, she was sweating slightly, and her hair was messy, which made the young boy dazed again.
He looked at the leader of Heitu Village with a smug look on his face, his fangs showing in his smile.
"Look! Isn't it beautiful?"
Yun Zhihe's dazed eyes met the stunned look of the woman in front of him.
The woman in front of him was tall, with honey-colored skin wrapped in rough riding clothes, and beautifully shaped muscles.
Meng Le looked at her youngest son's smug and expectant expression, then looked at the tied woman.
The corners of her lips twitched, and she glared at the young boy. After a long time, she squatted down and said to Yun Zhihe awkwardly.
"Hey... girl... where are you from? What's your name?"
Yun Zhihe took a deep breath and began to make up stories without changing his expression.
"My name is Yun Zihe, and this... I came from Longcheng. Since Longcheng was devastated by an epidemic and my parents died, I plan to go to the capital to seek some opportunities..."
Meng Le nodded, reached out to untie her, and laughed softly.
"My son has been mismanaged and has acted recklessly. This has caused a great joke. Please don't take it to heart, my lady. I will send someone to escort you out of the village right away."
Seeing his mother untying his wife, the young boy paused, then hurriedly grabbed Meng Le's arm, speaking in a panic.
"Mom, what are you doing?! This is my wife, I can't let her get away!"
His words were so disrespectful that Meng Le laughed in anger and said harshly in a low voice.
"Meng Xiaojiao, if you keep messing around, I'll spank you!"
Listening to the conversation between mother and son, Yun Zhihe paused and the corners of his lips rose slightly.
It turns out that this impetuous young man with honey-colored skin nicknamed Tiger Cub is actually named Meng Xiaojiao.
I don't know whether I should admire the skill of naming. The word "jiao" (Jiao) is not seen at all.
"No, no... She is my wife, I can't let her go!"
"you--"
Seeing that the mother and son were about to quarrel, Yun Zhihe spoke to dissuade them, lowering his head, his voice slightly sad.
"You... should be the head of the village. My parents are both dead, and I have no relatives to support me. I have nowhere else to turn but to leave my hometown and find some work..."
"I heard that Black Earth Village accepts those who are down and out. I have read a little bit, I wonder if the head of the village can take me in?"
Although Yun Zhihe is very dignified, he is also good-looking, with lowered eyebrows and eyes, like a weak scholar. It is especially pitiful to think that this man has lost both his parents. Such words are also extremely deceptive.
Meng Le thought for a moment and said with a smile, "No wonder Sister Zihe is so dignified. She is educated. If you don't mind us rough-hewn bandits, you can stay here and I'll give you a job."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Meng Xiaojiao quickly agreed, her eyes filled with joy, "Yes, yes, yes! Stay here, marry me, and I will give birth to a child for you."
Meng Le paused again, his face suddenly darkened, and he cursed in a low voice.
“…Shameless!”
He took another deep breath, forced a smile, and untied Yun Zhihe. Yun Zhihe said at this time.
"Boss, I was kidnapped this time..." She raised her eyes to look at the young man who was staring at her covetously, "I was picked up by the young boss, and my brother was with me. I wonder where he is?"
She stiffly changed "tie" to "connect", with a difficult tone.
This young man is so impetuous and impetuous that he doesn't look like a man at all.
Meng Xiaojiao reached out and grabbed Yun Zhihe's hand, muttering to herself.
"Come on, I'll take you to find it."
His palms were hot, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his honey-colored skin was slightly red. He looked up at her again and saw Yun Zhihe staring at him, stuttering.
"You, look at me...what am I doing?"
The tips of her canine teeth are exposed, looking particularly white and small, and her red lips are shiny.
Yun Zhihe smiled, shook his head, and asked in a low voice, "Young Master, why did you tie me back?"
"Don't you understand?" He frowned, "I told you to be my wife."
He is still young, a few years younger than Su Zheng, and looks like he is 14 or 15 years old. I don't know why he is so eager to get married.
Yun Zhihe said thoughtfully, "It's still too early for you and me to get married."
Meng Xiaojiao puffed out her lips and muttered something.
"It's not too early. I've already had my first period, and I can have a baby now."
Yun Zhihe was stunned by his straightforward words.
He raised his eyebrows, looked at Yun Zhihe as if to assess her, and asked suspiciously, "Do you like children?"
Yun Zhihe was shocked by what he had just said and just nodded blankly.
Meng Xiaojiao smiled with satisfaction and pulled her forward again. Before they had taken a few steps, they met a group of children from the village.
As soon as they saw Meng Xiaojiao, they excitedly rushed over, chattering, "Brother Meng! Brother Meng! What are we going to play today?"
"Brother, brother, let's play hide and seek?"
"Brother, I want Feifei, hug, hug!"
…
The chattering voices of children lingered in the air. Meng Xiaojiao smiled brightly and flew up with a child in her arms, sobbing and coaxing the child.
"One flight is enough. I have things to do."
He helplessly discouraged the children's enthusiasm.
...He seemed to be particularly fond of children.
His eyes curved and he smiled, revealing the tips of his fangs.
Meng Xiaojiao has lived in the village since she was a child. She lives like a wild child, even crazier than other girls. Her favorite thing is to play with other children.
My biggest wish is... to find a wife and have a child of my own.
He was simple-minded and straightforward, and he wanted whatever he thought of. Seeing that Yun Zhihe was good-looking, he tied her up and brought her back.
He struggled out of the group of children hugging him, and grabbed Yun Zhihe's hand again, his eyes filled with fiery passion and beauty.
"We'll have a bunch of kids like this in the future."
Yun Zhihe didn't know how to answer, so he just asked with his lips twitching.
"Why do you like having children so much?"
He looked at me like a fool again, "Because it's fun."
...You shouldn't expect him to say anything serious.
With a hint of anticipation in his eyes, he said, "Babies are fun, we'll know once we have one."
"Ahem, where is my brother imprisoned?"
Yun Zhihe coughed lightly and quickly changed the subject.
Meng Xiaojiao finally came back to her senses and pointed to the house over there, "There."
As soon as he walked in, he saw Lou Zhi surrounded by a group of uncles, who were asking him about his well-being, sighing and stroking his hair with caressing.
"This child is really pitiful...having to have such a wife. In the village, women who hit men will be beaten by other women."
"Hey, Xiaolou, if you like any girl in the village, uncle will help you get together. Don't be disgusted by the fact that you are a second-time bride. This widow is very popular."
"You have a really handsome face. If you didn't have this scar, many girls would be begging to marry you."
"Living in the village is definitely not as hard as living outside."
…
A group of uncles were talking one after another, and Lou Zhi was sandwiched between them. Although he had no expression on his face, one could see a sense of confusion in him if he looked closely.
He was tied up and a group of uncles opened the sack and started questioning him.
Lou Zhi was a very quiet person, and he would answer questions one by one in a very concise manner.
When asked if he had a wife, he replied that she was dead.
When asked again if he was sad, he shook his head and replied, "No."
At this time, an uncle saw the scar on his eye and exclaimed, "Did she hit you?"
Lou Zhi nodded.
After just a few words, the uncles outlined the miserable life of a disfigured widow who was abused by his family. The fatherly instinct came up, and one by one they took his hand and said they wanted to introduce him to little girls, showing special care for him.
When he saw Yun Zhihe open the door, his bewildered expression became turbulent. He stood up and was about to go over. An uncle saw him, grabbed Lou Zhi, and looked suspicious.
"Who are you?"
Obviously, the uncles with overflowing paternal instincts have already regarded Lou Zhi as their own child.
Yun Zhihe explained, "I'm his cousin."
Lou Zhi nodded and responded.
After hearing Yun Zhihe's words, the uncles' expressions looked a little strange, and they walked forward again with some accusatory expressions.
"You're already a grown woman. Xiaolou has suffered so much. How can you be her younger sister? As a woman, you should be upright and supportive. If you can't even protect the men in your family, how can you be responsible for the family?"
Although Yun Zhihe felt a little helpless, he still quickly agreed and admitted his mistake.
"Yes, it was my fault that I didn't realize the injustice my brother had suffered. I will definitely make it up to him in the future."
The uncles nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Yun Zhihe again, narrowing their eyes, "Miss, are you married? Uncle, can you introduce a good husband to you?"
Before Yun Zhihe could speak, Meng Xiaojiao rushed up, like a little marble, talking hurriedly.
"No, no! I stole her, she's my wife!"
The uncles looked at each other and joked.
"Young Master, do you know what a wife is?"
The young man's face flushed with anger, and he explained fiercely, "Of course I know, of course I know, I know! Anyway, she is my wife, you can't have any ideas about her!"
The uncles laughed out loud.
"Hahahahahaha... Young Master has grown up and realized that he is in love with women."
Lou Zhi stared at Meng Xiaojiao without saying a word, but there was a chill in his eyes.
...don't like him.
Lou Zhi looked at Yun Zhihe, walked over, stretched out his slender fingers, and touched Yun Zhihe's fingers.
He looked into her eyes, his voice light.
"...Don't be his wife."
Yun Zhihe nodded, withdrew his hand, and teased again.
"It's just a joke, no one takes it seriously."
She consulted with him in a soft voice.
"Let's pretend to be brother and sister and explore here for a few days."
On her way here, she carefully observed the village. Although it was called a village, it looked more like a village. They grew crops and produced food, were self-sufficient, had pleasant scenery, and the people looked simple and honest.
The people here... would they really do something like murder and robbery?
And in five days, this place will be razed to the ground by Queen Mother Cheng's army.
