Su Ruanruan tried to get on the pedals, but failed several times.
It's not that she can't ride a horse, it's just that her current body is delicate and frail, at most only about 1.6 meters tall. In her previous life, she was a tall woman of 1.75 meters, and her long, straight, beautiful legs were even insured.
Huo Yan looked down at the plain-looking woman, whose puffed-up face was glaring fiercely at Lie Feng.
Surprisingly... kind of cute.
Before Su Ruanruan could react, she was lifted off the ground and pulled up by the back of her collar, like pulling up a radish.
The next instant, he landed steadily on the horse's back.
The horse turned its head and neighed, then lifted its hooves and leisurely galloped forward.
Huo Yan frowned. Lie Feng didn't resist at all?
You should know that Rou'er once rode on Lie Feng's back, and this guy was unwilling to take a single step forward.
"You haven't answered my question yet."
"What?" Su Ruanruan couldn't remember which sentence he had said.
"If you love money so much and are reluctant to part with these five taels of silver, why didn't you accept the fifty taels in the first place?"
Su Ruanruan gets angry when this is mentioned.
“This five taels of silver is clean; I earned it through my own abilities.”
"Officer Huo, if you are interested in prostitutes, go to the brothel yourself. There are all kinds of women there, old and young, tall and short, fat and thin. You can choose whatever you like."
"With your fifty taels of silver, as long as you're not afraid of overworking your kidneys, you can change girls every day."
Su Ruanruan looked at the road ahead, then covered her mouth and chuckled, "You're not exactly young anymore, but I didn't expect you to still be a virgin. I've seen plenty of constables, they're always in the lap of luxury, but I've never seen you and your brothers before..."
The mention of virginity caused Huo Yan's face to darken even further.
Su Ruanruan felt the chill behind her and changed the subject.
"Didn't you all leave? Why did you come back on your own? Is Young Master Wei feeling any better?"
Huo Yan narrowed his eyes. "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
Su Ruanruan pressed down on the corner of her lips, "Tch, I thought there were some treasures up in the mountains, otherwise why would I keep seeing you around here? I'll go and see what treasures are hidden in these mountains someday."
"That depends on whether you're destined for it."
Su Ruanruan seemed not to have heard Huo Yan's words, staring straight ahead.
She knew she had reached the territory of Qingshui Village.
She gestured for Huo Yan to stop, and then jumped off her horse.
I said, "Thanks!"
They were already rushing out of the forest in a great hurry.
After leaving the woods and walking on the village road of Qingshui Village, we could see in the distance an oxcart carrying a group of people walking ahead.
Su Ruanruan cleared her throat and called out loudly, "Uncle, Aunt!"
But the people in front couldn't hear her voice.
Su Ruanruan kept chasing and shouting, her heart pounding in her throat.
I was never this tired when I ran 800 meters in school.
The oxcart stopped in front of a house.
Just then, a head peeked out from the crack in the door of the family, their eyes sweeping over the people on the oxcart before settling on the boxes of gifts.
He closed the door and ran quickly into the house.
Inside the room sat several members of the Wang family clan, Li Shi, Wang Chunya, and her father, Wang Shun.
The boy, barely out of school, ran into the house in a panic.
"Uncle, Aunt, the Duan family has arrived. They have a lot of things on the oxcart."
Wang Chunya sat huddled on the stool, a look of disdain on her face. She disliked this marriage, but the man she liked couldn't afford five taels of silver...
Li was overjoyed, her face beaming with delight.
I was about to go out to greet her, but then I turned back.
Wang Shun glanced at her and said, "Why aren't you leaving? Your in-laws are here. Go and greet them, and you can get to know your mother-in-law better."
Li glared at him and said, "I won't do something so shameful. They're begging to marry my daughter, and if I greet them with a smile, they'll think that Da Ya is unwanted."
Wang Shun was speechless. He wanted to say something to her, but thinking of the woman's usual temperament, he swallowed his words.
He smiled and offered his relatives water.
The group exchanged glances, already used to his fear of his wife.
They didn't want to come, but they see each other all the time. And since they're relatives, it was hard to refuse, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to save face.
Inside the house, Li Shi had set up a very formal atmosphere, just waiting for the Duan family to knock on the door.
Outside, Su Ruanruan was out of breath from running, and finally shouted to Duan Datie, that silly goose.
The moment Duan Datie jumped off the oxcart, he thought he was seeing things.
Some asked skeptically, "Dad, Mom, isn't that my cousin Ruan Ruan?"
Duan Zhuang and Liu Shi looked in the direction he was pointing and saw a woman sitting down on the road, panting heavily.
When she raised her head, the two elders were truly startled.
"Ruan Ruan?"
Liu hurried over.
Su Ruanruan knew she shouldn't sit down immediately after strenuous exercise, but she had no strength left. She felt as if she had been skinned alive and her body was limp and powerless.
Seeing that Liu was already in front of her, and looking at Su Ruanruan's face, she didn't know what had happened.
How did this girl get here in such a hurry?
But she was even more eager to know what had happened.
"But what happened at home?" Liu asked anxiously.
Su Ruanruan waved her hand, panting, and said, "No, it's not."
"Aunt...we can't get this marriage arranged!"
Liu looked at Su Ruanruan in disbelief, then at the Wang family's house so close by. They had already stepped into the Wang family's territory with one foot in the door, so why did they suddenly say they couldn't get married?
