Chapter 48 It Turns Out to Be Her
Sister Yanhong felt a little numb when she saw Zhong Ling's eyes and didn't dare to speak.
"You're right!" Zhong Ling suddenly said this to Sister Yanhong.
Then I realized I had slipped up and explained to Sister Yanhong that I had either encountered something strange or was simply too scared on the way back. I had to run all the way back, which was why my hair was messy.
Sister Yanhong carefully looked at Zhong Ling's expression and felt relieved only after confirming that she had not suffered any injustice.
"You two are having dinner at a fellow villager's house. If it's too late at night, you can ask them if they can send someone to take you back. Otherwise, it's still a bit unsafe." Sister Yanhong reminded.
After hearing that Tang Wan and Zhong Ling both agreed, he stopped talking.
Tang Wan intuitively felt that Zhong Ling must be having some affair, but now Zhong Ling has realized that her intervention is different from the original plot of the book.
Tang Wan didn't know what Zhong Ling was busy with now.
All I know is that the misunderstanding between her and Zhao Dong has not been resolved yet. Zhao Dong is an upright person and he cannot tolerate Zhong Ling's deceptive behavior.
Zhong Ling was obviously lost in thought because of Sister Yanhong's words. She washed up and went to bed in a daze, and even the things she brought back were piled by the bed without being tidied up.
The next morning, Tang Wan got up early as usual, packed up her things, and prepared to go to Qin Zheng's house for dinner.
The same goes for Zhong Ling. Qi Wei had to go somewhere else to eat first, so he got up early.
Moreover, Zhong Ling got up earlier than Tang Wan and was preparing to soak her clothes in the basin.
She walked past Tang Wan holding the clothes.
Finally, Tang Wan held the hat and moved sideways to let Zhong Ling pass, and her eyes also passed over her.
Suddenly, Tang Wan's eyes fixed on the clothes in Zhong Ling's basin.
A gray dress with black patches, and another black dress.
This kind of outfit is very common, but the familiar shape of the patch reminded Tang Wan of the clothes worn by the woman who was being chased in the black market outside the yard yesterday. It had a patch like this.
Now, a lot of things make sense.
Why did Zhong Ling come back so late yesterday, with messy hair and untidy clothes?
Because she had been chased for such a long time and had changed her clothes before returning from the town, and because of the urgency of time and the panic after her escape, she did not notice so many details.
Tang Wan knew that Zhong Ling would venture into the black market, but that was after she married Zhao Dong, and nothing unexpected had happened.
Thinking of this, Tang Wan touched her chest.
Perhaps it was because Zhong Ling had this pendant space before, so there were no accidents. But now this space is here with Tang Wan.
Zhong Ling didn't notice Tang Wan's gaze. She put the clothes in the basin to soak and turned back.
I was a little surprised to see that Tang Wan hadn't left yet.
Tang Wan nodded to her, and neither of them spoke. After going out, they walked in different directions.
When Tang Wan arrived at Qin Zheng's place, Qin Zheng had already prepared rice and had even eaten it.
"I have to go to town today and won't be back at noon. You can heat up the meal I brought back yesterday and eat it at noon. There are also some food prepared for you in the pot." Qin Zheng brought out breakfast to Tang Wan while speaking. There was not only rice but also half a watermelon.
"Okay, be careful on the road." Tang Wan said as she tried to reach out to take the food but Qin Zheng dodged her.
"The porridge is a little hot," Qin Zheng explained. "There's a watermelon in the well in the backyard. You can fish it out if you want some for lunch."
As Qin Zheng spoke, he put the food on the table for Tang Wan.
