C42 Back to the Village in Disgrace
Quan Tong's eyes narrowed. "What are you trying to say?"
Zhou Qu glanced at Lee Wanning and said, "This is my wife, so whatever she does, I will bear it. I know we are all grass citizens, and we have no way to refute the lord's words, even if we explain that my wife did not steal anything, the lord will still judge like this. Since that is the case, her guilt, let me suffer!"
Honestly speaking, Zhou Qu had never been one to talk sweet nothings over. Previously, Lee Wanning had teased him before, but he also never said anything. Now that he was kneeling beside Lee Wanning, he knew he couldn't refute Lee Wanning, but he was willing to suffer for her.
Lee Wanning's eyes immediately turned red. Quan Tong had already said, "What do you mean? Are you saying that I'm framing your wife?"
Zhou Qu was neither humble nor arrogant, "This commoner did not say that, but I want sire to know what happened!"
Quan Tong was so angry that his entire body was shaking, and Quan Fei had long disliked Zhou Qu. At this moment, he directly said, "If that's the case, then I'll grant your wish today. Men, pull him down! Fifty slabs! "
Lee Wanning gritted her teeth and said, "Lord, this humble woman has something to say!"
A look of impatience appeared on Quan Tong's face as he said, "Speak!"
"Today, the lord will pronounce a judgement like this. This humble woman is powerless to refute, but here, this humble woman is going to sue someone, forcibly seize this civilian's daughter, and also illegally detain him!"
Quan Fei's face suddenly changed. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Quan Tong asked, "Who?"
"It's Master Quan Fei's son!"
Quan Fei immediately frowned. He didn't think that Lee Wanning would break all ties with him just like that. Quan Fei's expression was ugly as he said, "You …"
"Master, this commoner was originally a small peasant woman in Guxi Village, but Young Master Quan took advantage of this opportunity and brought this commoner back to the house. Not only did he get this commoner to cook for him, he did not even give me any wages, I can endure these grievances, but today, because I am not pleasing to your eyes, you used torture on my husband. My Lord, unless we are both killed here today, even if I were to report it to Capital City, I will do so too! "
Under Lee Wanning's words, there was a wave of impassioned excitement. Quan Tong was stunned, while Quan Fei was gnashing his teeth in anger.
Zhou Qu looked at the person beside him. At that moment, he finally felt that the person beside him was not an ordinary person.
Quan Tong was someone who knew his limits. After some thought, he released Lee Wanning and Zhou Qu using the lack of evidence as a reason and even chased them out.
Lee Wanning couldn't wait for such an outcome.
However, when Quan Fei's sinister gaze landed on her, Lee Wanning felt very uncomfortable.
Zhou Qu said, "We have offended Young Master Quan, so I'm afraid that our days will not be good in the future."
Lee Wanning coldly snorted and said, "Who cares about him? They can do whatever they want anyway. Do they want to touch you?" "I don't agree!"
Zhou Qu looked at Lee Wanning, rubbed her head and said, "It's okay, I'm a tough guy, it must be fine."
Lee Wanning shook her head. "No matter what, let's go home!"
Zhou Qu nodded, "Yes, home!"
It had already been some time since the two of them had left Guxi Village. Fortunately, Bian Lan had already passed by earlier and the entire house could be considered to be organized. Zhou Huai was very happy to see the two of them, while Zhou Heng's and Bian Lan's relationship seemed to have improved a little.
"Big Brother, you're not going back now, right?"
Zhou Qu shook his head, "No."
He looked at Lee Wanning and smiled. Lee Wanning forced a smile.
Although the two of them had returned, Lee Wanning felt that with Quan Fei's petty character, he would wait for an opportunity to take revenge. Her friends in town, such as Big Brother Duan and Boss Chen, would be the ones to bear the brunt.
Zhou Qu saw the worry on Lee Wanning's face, so he asked before he knew what had happened.
He thought for a moment and said, "In fact, that Young Master Quan shouldn't be a bad person. He wouldn't do such a thing, right?"
Lee Wanning shook her head. "I think it's quite possible."
"Then what are you going to do?"
"No matter what, it's true that the people don't want to fight with the officials. I feel that when the time comes, we should go and have a good talk with him. If he doesn't agree, then I will destroy everything that happened to him!"
"What is it?"
Lee Wanning glanced at him and said with a smile, "Secret!"
Zhou Qu was helpless.
During the whole day, both of them were already tired. Zhou Qu hugged Lee Wanning and fell asleep on his bed.
Lee Wanning was awakened by soft footsteps in the middle of the night.
She glanced at Zhou Qu. He was sleeping well.
Lee Wanning looked out of the window and realized that Bian Lan had come out of the house. She looked around cautiously and kept walking forward. Her actions reminded Lee Wanning of four words, sneaky and sneaky.
Lee Wanning didn't intend to wake Zhou Qu up, so she followed him slowly.
Bian Lan opened the door and headed towards the fields. Lee Wanning thought it was strange, the Zhou Family did not have any fields, so what was Bian Lan planning to do in the middle of the night?
When Lee Wanning saw the strange man in front of her, she immediately understood.
Then, his entire body trembled in anger.
It had only been a few days since he and Zhou Qu left, but this Bian Lan actually started a reunion with someone!
Lee Wanning was so angry that her body trembled. She turned around and headed towards her home, sitting at the entrance.
After an hour or so, she saw Bian Lan slowly walking back with a smug look on her face. Lee Wanning forcefully suppressed her anger and when Bian Lan wanted to go back to the house, Lee Wanning said, "Where did you go?"
Bian Lan was startled by the sudden voice. When she turned around, she saw Lee Wanning looking at her with a smile that was not a smile.
Bian Lan's heart skipped a beat and she almost knelt down.
She faltered and said, "I... I couldn't sleep, so I thought... "
"Oh, and then there just happens to be a man who can't sleep. Or is it that you've already made an appointment?" As Lee Wanning spoke, her voice rose a little. Bian Lan shivered and immediately stepped forward to hold Lee Wanning's hand. "Sister-in-law, I beg of you, please don't say it!"
Lee Wanning initially thought that Bian Lan was a girl from a traditional family, so no matter what, it was impossible for her to do such a thing. However, after seeing Bian Lan like this, her heart sank.
She said, "I know it's a bit unfair that you met this kind of thing after just passing through the door, but no matter what, you …"
"I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. Elder sister-in-law, please forgive me. I really know I was wrong. I will never meet him again. I will live a good life, okay?"
As Lee Wanning looked at her, she felt that she had become a little overbearing. She could only take a deep breath and said, "Okay, tonight I'll pretend that nothing happened. But if I find out that there's a next time …"
"There won't be a next time!" Bian Lan immediately said.
Lee Wanning nodded and turned to leave.
Returning to the room, Zhou Qu was still sleeping soundly. Lee Wanning was lying on her bed with her eyes open, waiting for daybreak.
When she just got up, Lee Wanning felt a little pain in her head. Bian Lan packed up her things and looked at her with eyes full of trepidation. Especially when Lee Wanning wanted to talk to Zhou Heng, she would change the topic intentionally.
Lee Wanning hated her attitude, but she could only suppress it and continue acting as if nothing had happened.
After two days of this, Lee Wanning felt that Quan Fei's anger should have disappeared, so she took advantage of Zhou Qu's time to go hunting and went to the small town by herself.
Big Brother Duan and Boss Chen didn't have anything to do with each other, so Lee Wanning's heart finally relaxed a little. Perhaps she was overthinking things, and Quan Fei didn't care about her at all.
Lee Wanning went to the county magistrate's mansion, but the people there still knew her. Lee Wanning didn't want to go in there, so she asked them to call Quan Fei out.
However, the person who came out said, "Young Master will allow you to enter."
Lee Wanning was flustered and exasperated, but for the sake of her own good days in the future, she still slowly walked in.
Quan Fei was hugging Yan Yan and drinking to his heart's content. When he saw Lee Wanning, his face didn't look too good either.
Lee Wanning couldn't be bothered to deal with him and directly said, "Young Master Quan, last time, it was really unintentional. I came today because I wanted to discuss something with you."
"What is it?" Quan Fei said casually.
"It's the shop you mentioned last time. I will do my best to help you set it up. From today onwards, we will be partners. Is that okay?"
Quan Fei naturally understood Lee Wanning's words. They were like grasshoppers on a rope after the establishment of the partnership. She was afraid that if he did anything in the future, he would ruin the situation, right?
Needless to say, Lee Wanning truly understood herself a little. If Lee Wanning didn't come today, then he really intended to get someone to destroy that clothing store of hers, and the next one would be that shop of the Duan Clan.
Hearing Lee Wanning's words, Quan Fei sneered and said, "That shop, I don't really want to open it anymore. Anyway, I have good food and drink now, so I don't need to work that hard."
Lee Wanning could only smile apologetically and said, "Then what does Young Master Quan want?"
Quan Fei looked at Lee Wanning and let go of her hand. He looked at Lee Wanning and said, "Simple. How about you follow me after you and your husband, He Li?"
