Chapter 70 The Third Prince Invites Them to Ride in a Carriage
They rejoined the group, and most of them returned.
Some people looked at the fish in Xie Wanyun's hand with disbelief.
They also wanted to catch fish, cook a pot of fish soup, and have a hearty meal so they wouldn't have to gnaw on those unpalatable dry rations.
I finally spotted one or two fish, but they disappeared before I could even get close. I couldn't catch them at all, and my clothes were almost soaked. I returned home in a sorry state.
How were those two women captured?
They were ashamed that they, as men, were inferior to two weak women. They blushed with embarrassment and felt resentful. They said to the women in their household, "Look at other people's wives. They go to the stream to catch fish to improve their meals, while all you do is look in the mirror and wash your faces. You've been exiled. What's the use of washing your faces clean? Who will look at you?"
The most important thing now is to fill our stomachs.
The concubine pouted and said coquettishly, "Master, catching fish is something servants do. How would we know how to catch fish?"
“Servants? Where are there servants now? I’m not even as good as a servant now. I have to do everything myself. From now on, I’ll have to find what I want to eat myself. I should learn from others.”
"knew."
The women who were reprimanded dared not speak out, nor did they dare blame their men for blaming Xie Wanyun. They blamed her for catching two fish and showing them off everywhere.
Xiao Xuanwu was also incredulous when he saw his gentle and frail sister-in-law carrying two fish. "Sister-in-law, did you catch these fish?"
"It wasn't me, it was my third sister-in-law who caught her. She's very capable; she caught her in no time."
Xiao Xuanwu looked at her with admiration, "Wow, Third Sister-in-law is really amazing."
He was highly skilled in martial arts, kicking the vicious constable away with one kick, and he could also catch fish.
Once upon a time, when she went out for a spring outing, a fish swam past her feet. She reached out and grabbed it, but it slipped away again.
Several children joined in, shouting, "Third Auntie is amazing!"
Yun Zhaoxue, "..."
Well……,
Is it really necessary to make such a fuss about catching two fish?
She said casually, "Just lucky."
Yun Zhaoxue took a jar from the cart, poured out its contents, and filled it halfway with water by the stream. "I'll go fill it with water."
Xiao Xuance stood up and took the jar. "I'll do it."
At this moment, Yang returned with red eyes; she had just gone to persuade her daughter to come back.
She said that in this family, Yun Zhaoxue is either there or she is not, forcing her to make a choice.
She said she wouldn't drive Yun Zhaoxue away, and would let Xiao Xiuning come back to shake hands and make peace with Yun Zhaoxue. In the face of hardship, the past conflicts seemed insignificant. If you hold onto them, you'll only trap yourself...
Xiao Xiuning wouldn't listen; she was truly at her wit's end.
Xie Wanyun and Song Mingyan comforted her, but Yang was still upset and turned away to wipe her tears.
She could handle everything else, but the thought of her children becoming estranged from her was more painful than having a piece of her own flesh torn out.
How could he not be heartbroken?
Xiao Xuanwu comforted her, "Mother, don't be sad. What if your third sister-in-law comes back and sees you like this? How will you explain it to her?"
Yang was so frightened that she trembled all over, thinking that Yun Zhaoxue had returned from fetching water. She quickly wiped away her tears, sniffed, and blinked repeatedly.
Things were already chaotic enough; she was afraid that if Yun Zhaoxue gave up and left, their family would fall apart.
Beside the stream.
Xiao Xuance followed behind Yun Zhaoxue, carrying the jar.
More than a hundred people have come and walked all over this place. It's full of potholes and there's even standing water in some places.
Yun Zhaoxue noticed that he was walking unsteadily, turned around and frowned as she glanced at him, "Be careful, if you fall, don't bump into me, fall to the side, okay?"
Xiao Xuance, “…”
She seems to be the same person she always was.
"Won't."
The two walked one after the other.
Xiao Xuance followed behind her and whispered, "I'm sorry, and thank you."
I owe her an apology for what happened at noon.
She was fine in the morning, but after Xiao Xiuning's antics at noon, she stopped paying much attention to him.
Yun Zhaoxue: "What are you apologizing for? What are you thanking me for? Explain yourself clearly."
All she wants is someone to stand by her unconditionally. If they don't listen to her and go against her, she can be thrown away.
"I stopped you from hitting Ning'er at noon, I'm sorry."
"It's alright. If you stop me again next time, I'll beat you up anyway. You'll take the beating for her." Yun Zhaoxue turned around, a smirk playing on her lips, but her eyes held a chilling coldness. Her fingertips casually traced his collar. "Like this!"
After saying that, she gave him a sudden shove.
Xiao Xuance staggered backward, almost falling over.
She grabbed his collar, but she pulled too hard.
Xiao Xuance, whose legs were weak and unsteady, was caught off guard and crashed into her arms, his chest pressed against her soft curves.
"Hmm!" The two of them groaned simultaneously, their breathing becoming erratic.
Xiao Xuance felt no pain, only shame.
Yun Zhaoxue was in pain.
She let go of the man and walked quickly forward, clutching her chest; it hurt terribly.
"Go get some water quickly."
Before reaching the upstream area, they arrived at a place where the water was relatively clean and clear and began to fill the container.
He filled the jar completely.
Yun Zhaoxue frowned. "You've only pretended to be halfway there. Why pretend to be more?"
"I don't know if there will be water at our place to stay in the evening, so it's better to bring extra water in advance than nothing."
"You don't need that much. It will spill out along the way as it wobbles. Fill it with less. If you fill it too full, you won't be able to push it."
Xiao Xuance did as instructed, and when it was a little while, he turned around with the jar in his arms and unexpectedly encountered the Third Prince.
He instinctively stepped in front of Yun Zhaoxue.
Yun Zhaoxue looked at the Third Prince and felt that he was different from the morning. His eyebrows and eyes were less gloomy, and there was more calculation in his eyes, as if he wanted to restore the Third Prince who was in the capital before.
"What's up?"
The Third Prince laughed and said, "I... I'll prepare a carriage for you, so you won't have to walk anymore."
The couple exchanged a knowing glance, realizing that any unsolicited kindness was either a trap or a theft.
There seem to be only two carriages. Given that the exile group has so many members of the Third Prince's faction, they actually provided carriages for them.
Was the other carriage not prepared for the Yun family?
This is going to be interesting!!!
