Chu Yuanxi really knew how to make things difficult for Chu Wanwan. He had been with her before, but Chu Yuanxi did not even think about their previous friendship and directly wanted to smear her reputation.
If she had not reacted quickly, Jiang Ming would definitely have fallen out with her.
With this thought in mind, she went forward and hugged Jiang Mingâs arm. She did not even want to look at Chu Yuanxi again and was ready to leave with Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming followed her and walked forward.
Chu Wanwan changed the topic.
âI heard that thereâs a restaurant thatâs doing very well recently. I love drinking tea. Jiu Zhu, please find some time to go with me to take a look.â
Jiang Ming did not suspect anything. He nodded and casually mentioned the Yellow Gall Grass. âSpeaking of which, during our wedding, the chief once said that he would give us the village treasure. He hasnât given it to us yet. I wonder if he has forgotten.â
Chu Wanwanâs mood dropped. Her eyes were filled with sadness as she said, âThatâs because he didnât acknowledge the two of us. If he did, he would have prepared it long ago. I really didnât expect things to develop like this. I feel like the chief is possessed. Itâs just a single stalk of Yellow Gall Grass! Could it be that the Yellow Gall Grass will fall into the hands of outsiders? Even if you wanted to take the Yellow Gall Grass, it doesnât matter! Weâre all family, so this Yellow Gall Grass will be in your hands sooner or later.â
As she spoke, she looked indignant, but there was nothing she could do.
She understood the village chiefâs personality. Since things had come to this, he would definitely not give the Yellow Gall Grass to Jiang Ming so easily. It was really a pity.
This marriage was originally harmonious and beautiful, but it turned out to be like this.
Jiang Ming nodded and said, âIt doesnât matter. At most, we can just wait. Time will heal everything. I believe the chief will definitely acknowledge us. Donât be anxious. You also know the chiefâs personality. This is all a matter of time.â
Seeing that Jiang Mingâs attitude did not change because of Chu Yuanxi, Chu Wanwan could not help but feel touched. Then, she nodded, her eyes filled with Jiang Ming.
âJiu Zhu, thank you for your understanding. As for Chu Yuanxi, he was originally a servant of my family. But he doesnât seem to be in a good mental state. He lost his parents and often wandered around. I felt sorry for him, so I helped him from time to time. In the end, he thought I liked him and did some bad things to me. The chief was very angry and chased him out. However, I felt that he was too pitiful, so I gave him some silver. I didnât expect him to have feelings for me. He kept pestering me. He was pestering me just now. If I wasnât afraid that you would find out, I wouldnât have agreed to him for the time being.â
As she spoke, she pretended to be teary. She took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. She said helplessly, âI really didnât expect such a person to exist in this world. The better you treat him, the more he thinks of how to hurt you.â
Hearing this, Jiang Ming could not help but fall silent.
She was terrible at lying.
However, he was not in the mood to expose her. Instead, he seriously nodded at Chu Wanwan and supported her. âThese people are too much. In my opinion, these people should not receive any relief. Itâs really hard on you, Chu Wanwan. You will definitely not meet him again in the future. If he comes to the village again, I will beat him up.â
Jiang Ming spoke as if he was serious, and Chu Wanwan could not help but laugh.
Chu Wanwan replied seriously, âOf course, I wonât see him again. Youâre always thinking about me. How could I let such a person come here again? Itâs been hard on you. Chu Yuanxi is so persistent. Iâll beat him half to death this time, but heâll probably come again next time.â
Although Chu Wanwan said that, she was also worried in her heart.
She knew Chu Yuanxiâs personality very well.
Since she was treating him like this, he would definitely not let her off. At that time, he might even find Jiang Ming and say some bad things to him.
Then, she said to Jiang Ming worriedly, âJiu Zhu, if Chu Yuanxi says something strange, you must not believe him. Chu Yuanxi only knows how to lie to deceive people.â
Jiang Ming glanced at Chu Wanwan and looked away guiltily.
He roughly understood that Chu Yuanxi and Chu Wanwan had already fallen out with each other.
Thinking of this, he calmed down.
This had nothing to do with him, so he did not need to think too much about it.
After he obtained the Yellow Gall Grass, everything here could be left behind.
After thinking it through, he turned to Chu Wanwan and comforted her, âThese things are all in the past. I naturally wonât believe the words of an outsider. Donât worry, I will take care of everything. You have to believe me.â
As he said that, he even patted Chu Wanwanâs hand on purpose. Chu Wanwan was overwhelmed and could not help but feel embarrassed. She immediately nodded and felt warm in her heart.
It was great that she had such a husband.
On the other side, the village chiefâs subordinate who was monitoring the two of them could not help but be stunned for a moment. Then, he hurriedly reported to the village chief.
The chief was very familiar with Chu Yuanxi. He did not expect Chu Wanwan to still be in contact with Chu Yuanxi. He immediately flew into a rage and broke the chopping board with his hand. His eyes were filled with frustration as he said, âWhat is going on? How dare someone try to mess with the eldest daughter of the village!â
Then, he looked at the servant beside him and said, âGet rid of Chu Yuanxi. Donât let him get in the way of Chu Wanwanâs happiness.â.
The servant nodded in panic and left hurriedly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The village chiefâs eyes were filled with frustration. Although he did not like Jiang Ming, he did not want him to have anything against Chu Wanwan.
Besides, he did not want his daughter to be framed.
Thinking of this, he was a little worried. He turned around and said,â Go and call Wanwan over. Tell her to be alone. Donât let Jiang Ming come over. Remember this.â
He spoke earnestly and carefully, afraid that the servant would let Jiang Ming follow him.
The meaning in his words was obvious. He also wanted to prevent Jiang Ming from secretly following him.
As he spoke, the plan in his heart had already begun.
He did not believe that Jiang Ming would still be able to come over after he had calculated everything.
When the time came, he would blame Jiang Ming for not taking good care of his daughter.
