Chapter 143 Being Gossiped About

Liang Yuanwang rubbed the spot where he was hit, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Yes, yes, I shouldn't ask this question. I'll go see if this family has any clothes left to change. After you change your clothes, we'll find a way to take you back to the village."

He searched around and actually found some clothes.

Yun'er didn't object and put it on immediately.

Liang Huanxue walked into the yard and looked around, but saw no sign of the bandits returning.

Maybe they haven't noticed that there is someone missing behind them yet.

If we don't leave now, it will be too late when they come back.

"Dad, the bandits probably haven't noticed that we're missing yet. Let's hurry back." She didn't care about the rooster at this moment. She just wanted to return to the village safely.

Liang Yuanwang also came out to take a look. After making sure it was safe, he asked Shen Yuefu to support Yun'er, and the group went into the village.

As a result, when we reached the neighboring village, we heard the sound of horse hooves again.

When Yun'er heard the sound, her legs went weak and she could no longer walk.

"Don't be afraid. We are here and will not let you be caught by them." Shen Yuefu comforted her, but she was extremely worried in her heart.

What if they drag themselves into this?

Liang Huanxue was very calm. She took them to hide in a bush and asked her mother to cover Yun'er's mouth.

Because she knew that when those people came over, Yun'er would definitely scream.

I had to cover her mouth to stop her from making any sound.

The bandits soon arrived nearby.

Yun'er was so frightened that she was shaking all over and couldn't help wanting to scream out.

Shen Yuefu could only fold her hands together to cover her mouth, but she was so scared that she bit them unconsciously and almost cried out.

But she held back, and even though her fingers were bitten and bleeding, she didn't make any movement.

She only released her hand after the bandits left.

Yun'er looked at her bitten hand and said helplessly: "I'm... I'm sorry, I... I shouldn't have..."

"It's okay, you didn't mean it." Shen Yuefu didn't care.

As long as we don't fall into the hands of bandits.

"What should we do now? Do we have to hide here forever?" Shen Yuefu didn't want to hide in the bushes.

There are too many insects here.

She couldn't stand it for long.

"The bandits didn't go towards our village, so that road is safe. We just need to go back." Liang Huanxue said as she walked out of the bushes.

Shen Yuefu wanted to help Yun'er up, but found that her legs were so weak that she couldn't walk at all.

"Old Four, why don't you carry her on your back?"

In order not to delay the return time, Shen Yuefu wanted Liang Yuanwang to carry the person on his back.

Liang Yuanwang's eyes widened, "Are you sure you want me to carry her?"

"If you don't carry her, should I? That's not impossible. Then just put her on my back." Shen Yuefu also knew his concerns.

If he carried a woman on his back like this and someone saw him, something would inevitably happen.

What's more, this is not just an ordinary woman, but the wife of the village chief's nephew.

So we have to be even more cautious.

Liang Yuanwang put the person on Shen Yuefu's back and said, "If you can't carry her anymore, tell me and I'll help you."

"Yeah." Shen Yuefu responded and walked forward quickly.

She was worried that the bandits might come back at any time, so she walked very quickly and Liang Huanxue almost had to run to catch up with her.

Liang Yuanwang was also confused when he saw this scene, "Why didn't I know your mother was so strong before?"

"Mom has to be a little weak in front of Dad, so you are not allowed to expose her!" Liang Huanxue whispered to him.

Liang Yuanwang smiled and said, "Of course not. Let's go and catch up."

Having said that, he picked up Liang Huanxue and followed Shen Yuefu.

Soon, the group returned to the village.

Shen Yuefu originally wanted to take Yun'er back to the village chief's house, but Yun'er refused to go no matter what, and begged Shen Yuefu to take her back to the Liang family in a pleading tone.

"Then we have no choice but to take her back first." Liang Huanxue realized that Ma Jie must have been the reason why she fell into the hands of the bandits.

That's why I don't want to go back.

Instead of letting her relive the nightmare, it would be better to take her back to the Liang family first and wait until she calms down.

By the time Shen Yuefu reached the door of the Liang family, she had already lost her strength.

Nian Huayue saw that she was carrying someone on her back and hurried over to help.

"Isn't this the village chief's nephew's wife? Why is she with you? Are there any thieves here?"

"Hey, let me drink some water first."

"I haven't seen him yet, but just in case, I'd better hide him well."

Old Lady Liang heard the noise and came out. She saw Yun'er in the room but didn't see the rooster. She couldn't help asking, "What happened?"

Liang Yuanwang took two more sips of water before telling the story.

Old Mrs. Liang felt a chill down her spine when she heard this.

"You are stealing people from bandits, are you trying to save your lives?" Wang Xifen was trembling even more.

Nowadays, who wouldn't avoid bandits when seeing them?

They actually have the guts to snatch people from bandits?

"We can't just watch them abuse people, right? If this person falls into the hands of bandits, nothing good will happen to him." Shen Yuefu said.

"That's what I said, but..." Wang Xifen wanted to say that this was clearly asking for trouble.

But thinking that person was right behind her, she swallowed the words back.

Since this person has been rescued, I think there shouldn't be any big problems.

Even if the bandits wanted to look for someone, they wouldn't come here.

Yun'er still looked as if she hadn't come to her senses. She sat on a chair, holding an empty bowl in her hand, her eyes hollow.

"Now that this person has been rescued, let's observe the situation first and let her stay here for now." Old Mrs. Liang said this, and the rest of the Liang family did not raise any objections, so the matter was settled.

The Liang family still has a few extra rooms, but they are all occupied by the boys of the Liang family and are not suitable for Yun'er to live in.

So she could only live in Mrs. Liang's house temporarily.

Old Mrs. Liang didn't ask her much. She just poured some hot water for her to wipe her body, and then let her go to sleep.

As a result, she woke up many times that night because of nightmares.

The noise made even Mrs. Liang unable to sleep well.

The next morning, the Liang family looked at the two depressed people and didn't know what to do.

"Why don't we let her live in Jiaxing's house? Jiaxing won't be back in the short term anyway. Besides, if we don't tell anyone, no one will know about this, so we don't have to worry about people gossiping about it." Wang Xifen said.

Old Mrs. Liang shook her head and said, "Let her live with me. If she lives alone, something bad will happen to her."

It would be troublesome if she ran away at night.

Someone needs to be there to keep an eye on her.
