Fan Xiaohua saw that everyone had left, leaving her all alone.
He had no choice but to follow behind the crowd.
She harbored extreme resentment towards Fan Tieniu in her heart.
As her older brother, instead of helping his younger sister, he completely ignored her.
She even gave him her betrothal gifts to help him get married.
If she had known he was like this beforehand, she wouldn't have been so kind.
Fan Xiaohua complained about Fan Tieniu from behind.
Fan Tieniu was also feeling bad at this moment.
Looking at Yuan Shitou holding Yun Xiaoxiao in front of him, he felt very guilty.
His sister did all of this.
His sister is so utterly disregardful of human life.
It frightened even him, the older brother.
No, I need to go back and have a serious talk with my parents. Should we still marry her off?
If this continues, it might really lead to someone's death.
Perhaps after she gets married, she won't be so hung up on the stone.
They wouldn't even think of looking for minor trouble.
If any family were to marry someone like his sister, they would likely never have a peaceful day.
Sigh, this must be the first time Fan Tieniu has sighed in his heart.
He has already broken off relations with Yuan Shitou because of this troublesome younger sister.
I gradually drifted apart from my other close friends.
As evening fell, the village chief arrived at Yun Xiaoxiao's tent.
"Xiaoxiao, how are you feeling?"
If there's nothing else, let's leave here first thing tomorrow morning.
Yun Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Uncle, I'm fine."
His face was still very pale when he said this.
And he seemed listless and weak.
The village chief sighed and said, "Xiaoxiao, don't worry."
I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter.
It's impossible to let Fan Xiaohua live such a carefree life.
We'll deal with this when we get back to the village.
I hope you can understand that we're out here now, and it's best not to cause any trouble.
Yun Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded: "Uncle, I know."
Seeing how sensible she was, the village chief's impression of her improved even more.
"Uncle knows you've been wronged. Just bear with it for now and we'll talk about it when you get back."
Yun Xiaoxiao nodded.
The village chief then asked, "How are you feeling? Will you be able to walk tomorrow?"
If it really doesn't work, we'll wait a couple more days.
Yun Xiaoxiao forced a smile: "I can do it, Uncle Village Chief, don't worry, I definitely won't hold everyone back."
The village chief nodded and glanced at the dejected Yuan Shitou beside him.
He sighed again, shook his head, and left.
After the village chief left, Yuan Shitou looked at Yun Xiaoxiao with concern.
"Xiaoxiao, you can't force yourself. If you feel unwell anywhere, you must tell Brother Shitou."
Yun Xiaoxiao nodded: "Okay, Brother Shitou, I want to sleep for a while." Yuan Shitou tidied her up and then went out.
Yun Xiaoxiao is now living in their own tent, just her and Yuan Shitou.
She used to live with Yuan Min.
But this time, Yuan Shitou absolutely refused.
He had to take care of Xiaoxiao and couldn't let anything happen to her.
Yun Xiaoxiao didn't say anything; it's not like they haven't slept together before.
She's a modern woman; why would she be afraid of such formalities?
As soon as Yuan Shitou went outside, he saw Fan Tieniu standing not far away.
He knew that Tie Niu had come to see him.
He walked over to Fan Tieniu and said, "No matter what you say this time, I will not let Fan Xiaohua off the hook."
Xiao Xiao suffered terribly this time, almost losing her life.
This was all done by your dear younger sister, Fan Xiaohua.
I will definitely not let her go, and you shouldn't even think about pleading for her.
"If you were in this situation, you'd probably be even angrier than I am."
Fan Tieniu's face flushed red, filled with remorse:
I am not here to ask for your forgiveness.
I know Xiaohua did something wrong this time.
I never intended to protect her.
No matter what punishment she receives, I will plead for her.
She brought this all on herself.
I just wanted to see how Xiaoxiao was doing.
Fan Tieniu gave him a look that said, "You're smart to know what's good for you."
"Xiaoxiao is asleep now. But she is still very weak."
After saying this, fearing that Fan Tieniu wouldn't believe him, he even lifted the tent flap so that Fan could see for himself.
Fan Tieniu glanced at Yun Xiaoxiao, who was sleeping inside.
Her eyes were tightly closed, and her face was frighteningly pale.
He asked with some concern, "We're leaving tomorrow to go back."
"Can she walk like this?"
Yuan Shitou said in a huff, "You don't need to worry about that."
In fact, Yun Xiaoxiao was not asleep at all.
She could hear everything being said outside clearly.
As Yuan Shitou lifted the tent flap, she pinched his leg hard.
His face turned deathly pale from the pain.
They actually fooled Fan Tieniu.
However, my leg suffered.
She was in so much pain that she was convulsing.
She thought to herself, feeling dissatisfied: "Being a pure and innocent person is really not easy."
After a night's rest, everyone got up early to pack up their tents and prepare to set off.
Yun Xiaoxiao had already recovered and looked full of energy.
But in order to make the performance more realistic.
She still pretended to be very weak.
He was helped to sit on the cart by Yuan Shitou.
Yuan Shitou hung the small cart on the back of the large cart.
They pulled each other along, step by step, moving forward.
Many people looked at Yun Xiaoxiao's weak appearance and glared at Fan Xiaohua with hostility, all because of her.
Fan Xiaohua had no self-awareness whatsoever, and even wore a smug expression.
So what if she pushed Yun Xiaoxiao into the water?
The village chief still didn't punish her.
It seems this matter is now over.
Little did she know that the village chief had temporarily put the matter aside.
They will decide what to do next after they get back.
Fan Xiaohua shamelessly tried to get on the cart and have Fan Tieniu push her away.
She felt that Yun Xiaoxiao could sit on the cart, so Yuan Shitou had to push it.
Why can't she?
Unexpectedly, Fan Tieniu refused.
Unwilling to give up, Fan Xiaohua tried to force her way into the car.
When Fan Tieniu let go, he almost dropped her face flat on her stomach.
Faced with Fan Tieniu's murderous gaze, they had no choice but to give up.
Some women nearby saw this and pointed and laughed.
Fan Xiaohua didn't care at all. She patted the mud off her body and continued walking beside Fan Tieniu.
Yuan Min also witnessed this scene and told Yun Xiaoxiao about it with a smile.
Yun Xiaoxiao just smiled and didn't say anything.
With the handcart, everyone could walk much more easily.
Some people even praised her, saying it was fortunate that Xiaoxiao came up with this idea.
Otherwise, they would have to carry them on their backs.
Just thinking about it makes me feel exhausted.
There were also a few who didn't use carts; they carried heavy loads of salt on their backs, their backs bent, their steps appearing particularly heavy.
Yun Xiaoxiao wanted to get off and walk, but Yuan Shitou pressed her back onto the cart and refused to agree no matter what.
Actually, Yun Xiaoxiao was perfectly fine; she was just pretending.
Seeing Yuan Shitou's sweat dripping down his face, she really couldn't bear it.
At her repeated insistence, Yuan Shitou had no choice but to let her down.
He also said that if she got tired after walking for a while, she could get on the cart and he would push her along.
Hearing this, Yun Xiaoxiao was very happy.
I feel like I'm probably the happiest one among all the people who were trafficked.
