Chapter 28 Su Wanwan kissed him on the cheek
Mrs. Cai glared at Su Wanwan, "You must have hidden that dead girl, otherwise how could she have the courage to run away?"
"You must be Caidie's mother," Su Wanwan let go of her. "Don't accuse a good person. I'm very busy every day. How can I have the time to hide Caidie? Your own daughter ran away, and you're blaming someone else?"
Mrs. Cai was silenced by her questioning. She put her hands on her hips and refused to admit defeat, as if she was competing to see who could speak louder. "If not you, then who else? Who else but you was close to that damned girl? I tell you, when that bitch left, she stole all the thirty taels of silver from my family. If she doesn't come back, you have to pay me thirty taels of silver!"
Su Wanwan couldn't help laughing. Liang Caidie had said that her family's savings were at most fifteen taels. This old lady Cai really dared to ask for thirty taels. Did she really think she was easy to bully?
"Where's the evidence?" Su Wanwan spread her hands. "Even if you are framing me, you have to find some evidence. If you don't leave, I'll call for help."
"Go ahead and shout," Mrs. Cai slapped her thigh and shouted, "It's time to let everyone see who is right, you or I!"
Su Wanwan called out, “Xiao Xiao.”
Xiaoxiao ran over immediately and called out to Mrs. Cai.
The old woman was frightened by the dog, which was as tall as her waist. She backed away and began to lift the quilt on the bed. When she saw the bellyband on the bed, she cursed, "Whore!"
Su Wanwan laughed angrily, grabbed the collar of Mrs. Cai and stuffed it into her small mouth, "Do you believe I will let the dog bite you if you keep talking nonsense?"
Xiaoxiao opened her mouth wide, waiting for Su Wanwan to give orders.
Mrs. Cai struggled and shouted for help. Finally someone came. When she saw it was Pei Changfeng, she started to curse again, "You two will both die a miserable death. You ordered my daughter to steal all the money in my house. I'm going to sue you!"
Pei Changfeng picked up the pink bellyband that was stepped on and made dirty, shook off the dust, and ignored Mrs. Cai.
Su Wanwan looked at Mrs. Cai proudly, "Keep shouting, I want to see who will come to save you."
The fifteen taels of silver were the lifeblood of Mrs. Cai, all of which she had saved for her son. All of a sudden, Liang Caidie stole it all. Her heart was bleeding. Moreover, she had already sold Liang Caidie to Luo Jiugui at the village head as a wife. Now Luo Jiugui said that if she didn't hand over Liang Caidie, he would ask her to pay back the money.
Mrs. Cai hugged Su Wanwan's arm and cried, "I don't care. If you don't pay me, I will hit my head and die here today, and you can't escape!"
Su Wanwan didn't tolerate Mrs. Cai. As soon as she let go of her, Mrs. Cai fell on her butt to the ground.
"Go ahead and hit me," Su Wanwan said calmly, "I'll feed you to the dogs when you die from the collision."
Xiaoxiao called out twice to show her agreement.
Pei Changfeng, who was outside the house, heard it and his eyes moved slightly.
Mrs. Cai was determined to ask for money. She rolled on the ground, crying and making a fuss. Finally, Su Wanwan dragged and kicked her out.
As soon as the door is closed, the world becomes quiet.
Glancing at her bellyband floating under the eaves, Su Wanwan smiled and approached Pei Changfeng, "Husband, did you help me wash it?"
She had the habit of putting things on the bed, whether it was a bellyband or a hairpin. Pei Changfeng snorted and made a "hmm" sound, which was considered an acknowledgement.
"Husband, you are so kind!"
Before Su Wanwan could say a few more sweet words, Mrs. Cai was still outside, so she opened the gate again and said, "Cai Die's mother, it's not a good idea for you to keep making trouble like this. If you really can't do anything, go to the government office and report the case to see if I really encouraged your daughter to take the money and run away."
Her voice became louder. "Maybe you treated Caidie harshly, even worse than her stepmother, and Caidie couldn't stand it and ran away. Can you blame me? You are really too shameless."
Mrs. Cai was not convinced, "Then let me search!"
"Why?" Su Wanwan was just annoyed. "Evidence, do you have evidence? Why did you let me search my house for no reason? And do you think my house can hide people? You are too unreasonable, old woman."
While they were making a fuss, Xiaoxiao cried out twice again. When Mrs. Cai saw someone coming, she started crying and complaining about her grievances. However, the villagers were used to seeing things happening in Pei Changfeng's family, so they just walked past without even looking.
Seeing that it was no use, Mrs. Cai had no choice but to leave first. Before leaving, she did not forget to leave a harsh word, "You wait for me!"
As soon as Mrs. Cai left, Su Wanwan closed the door and couldn't help muttering, "Why are there so many evil spirits coming to my house all day long? It's really weird."
She touched her little head and said to Pei Changfeng, "Let's go to the temple to pray when we have time to get rid of the bad luck."
Pei Changfeng's legs began to hurt again. He was used to it and nodded to Su Wanwan, "Okay."
In fact, raining is not a bad thing. The bad thing is that the roof of Pei Changfeng's house is broken. Su Wanwan was thinking about finding someone to repair it a few days ago, but she forgot about it because there were too many things to do.
Seeing that the sheets and quilts were all wet, Su Wanwan was a little angry, "It's really not a good life."
As long as the rain didn't stop, she couldn't sleep in bed, so Su Wanwan made a bed on the floor, ready to spend the night with Pei Changfeng.
"I'm sorry," Pei Changfeng said suddenly, "You've been wronged by following me."
Su Wanwan hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not wronged. How could I be wronged?"
In fact, Pei Changfeng knew some things that Su Wanwan didn't say. He lowered his eyes and said, "Wanwan, tell me about your first two husbands."
"What is there to say? They all died before I even got married," Su Wanwan said quickly after remembering something. "There is nothing between them and me. They insisted on marrying me."
Pei Changfeng shook his head, "Then why did you agree to marry me?"
"Because you are a scholar," Su Wanwan smiled, "Who wouldn't want to marry a scholar?"
Pei Changfeng laughed, "You are lying."
He seemed to be able to see through everything. Su Wanwan hesitated for a moment, "There's nothing much to say. Anyway, I've chosen you when I married you. You don't have to worry that I'll run away. I've worked so hard to serve you. I'm not that stupid. You have to support me for the rest of my life!"
What she said was true. She was counting on Pei Changfeng to open a school and support her. It would be so glorious to be the wife of a scholar.
Pei Changfeng smiled without saying anything and handed her a washed peach.
Su Wanwan took a bite and went to clean the house while humming a song.
She kept the purse that contained the small change she usually used close to her body. After what happened to Mrs. Cai, she was really afraid that Mrs. Cai would rob her of her money. But money cannot be robbed, as it is life-saving money.
In fact, Su Wanwan is now very wealthy and can even afford to buy a new house in the town, but this money is saved to buy medicine for Pei Changfeng. She hopes to cure Pei Changfeng's body as soon as possible, and it would be best if her legs could be cured as well. As long as her legs are healed, wouldn't it be a foregone conclusion that she would become an official's wife?
She held her chin and looked at Pei Changfeng. It was raining and there was nothing to do and nothing to entertain herself. The only thing she could do was to appreciate her husband's beauty.
Pei Changfeng was very curious why she kept staring at him, so he followed her example and stared at her with his chin in his hand.
The two of them just stared at each other silently. Su Wanwan couldn't help laughing out loud. Pei Changfeng's ears turned red. "What are you laughing at?"
"My husband, you are so handsome," Su Wanwan praised sincerely, "I have found a treasure!"
Pei Changfeng got up and opened the window to hide his embarrassment. He always felt upset because of one or two words from Su Wanwan.
It's so weird.
Not only was the roof raining, but it was also leaking. Su Wanwan sighed, "Fortunately it's not autumn, otherwise I would definitely catch a cold."
Pei Changfeng knew what it felt like to be drenched by the cold rain. After all, the roof had been broken for more than a day or two. When he couldn't move, he just lay on the bed, letting the cold rain drench him, and wild cats and mice crawl over him.
This feeling is not pleasant.
But now he was glad that he was still alive, having survived countless moments of wanting to die.
Of course, the person he should thank most is Su Wanwan.
"Husband."
Pei Changfeng looked over and saw Su Wanwan taking out a blue summer shirt that she had already made.
"Try it now, I've been doing it for a long time."
Su Wanwan was not good at needlework, and it did take her a lot of time to make this robe. Pei Changfeng saw that some of the stitches were crooked, but the dress was exceptionally beautiful.
He pursed his lips and smiled, "Thank you."
"Husband!" Su Wanwan suddenly said, "Don't move!"
Pei Changfeng froze, "What's wrong?"
Su Wanwan came forward with a serious look on her face, "Don't move."
Pei Changfeng was motionless when he heard this, "What happened?"
Then Su Wanwan's face suddenly moved closer and she kissed him on the cheek.
