Shu Jiaying turned around gracefully and left with light steps, but Kang Ningxia kept pointing at her back. After a long time... he asked Yu Chenfeng, "Brother, didn't the matter between Miss Shu and me end after I compensated her with ten taels of silver? But she... why did she say that I still owed her?"
Yu Chenfeng patted his sleeves and said nonchalantly, "Who knew that it was you who stabbed her with a knife? You did it yourself, so you will have to pay for it slowly."
"That's not right, big brother. That person is your future wife, and I'm your brother. You two shouldn't bully me like this..."
Yu Chenfeng stopped talking and stood up from his chair. He had eaten too much just now, so it was time for him to stretch his muscles. As for Kang Ningxia...
Just leave this kid alone to sort out his sins slowly!

Following Xiaohua's instructions, Zhuang Tianming came to Old Man Shu's house with the portrait in his hand.
At this time, Mrs. Ke had just turned off the lights and went to bed when there was a knock on the door.
Ke originally thought that it was Old Man Shu and Shu Guoyi who had returned from Fengyun Town. She put on a coat and hurried out to open the door.
But when he saw that the person knocking on the door was a middle-aged man, Ke's face immediately frowned.
"It's late at night, how can we sleep? Who are you looking for?"
Zhuang Tianming did not rush to reveal his identity. He first looked at Ke and finally shook his head.
"Even though eighteen or nineteen years have passed, if she's aged and her appearance has changed, she wouldn't be unrecognizable, so you can't be her."
"Mom...who's outside?"
When Shu Zhenmeng heard the sound of Mrs. Ke opening the door, she originally thought that it was her father and second brother who had returned, but when she heard the voices of the people talking outside the door, she felt that it was not the case.
Also wearing a coat, Shu Zhenmeng walked out of the door. She tilted her head and looked at Zhuang Tianming who was standing outside the door.
Zhuang Tianming knew he had found the wrong person. He smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry. I thought this was the home of an old friend of mine. It seems I was mistaken."
Mrs. Ke immediately said unhappily, "Did you make a mistake? Then please make sure you understand the situation before knocking on the door next time. I don't think anyone can sleep in the middle of the night after you've been making such a noise."
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!"
While Zhuang Tianming was apologizing, his eyes inadvertently fell on Shu Zhenmeng's neck. When he saw that Shu Zhenmeng was wearing a lock-shaped silver pendant with the word "Su" clearly visible on the pendant, he excitedly took a few steps back, and then he stepped forward and wanted to hold Shu Zhenmeng's hands again.
Shu Zhenmeng was so frightened that she immediately hid aside. She shouted in panic, "What are you doing... I called for help!"
"No...no, girl, can you tell me what your relationship with Qin Susu is, and why are you wearing the silver locket I gave her around your neck?"
"Is this silver lock yours?" Shu Zhenmeng asked in surprise.
Mrs. Ke, who was standing by, thought that Zhuang Tianming was Qin Susu's wild man outside, and he came back this time to snatch Qin Susu away, but he couldn't see Qin Susu. He also wanted to snatch the silver locket from her daughter's neck. She immediately blocked Shu Zhenmeng's way.
Ke denied it, "I don't know what you are talking about. Leave quickly. There is no such person as Qin Susu in my family. If you don't leave quickly, I will call the villagers later."
