C21 The Enemy Have Come to Make Trouble
Zhou Qu had already walked in front of him and frowned.
Lee Wanning waved her hand and said, "Forget it, it's fine. Just pack it up. They're just a bunch of lunatics."
Zhou Qu looked at the house and didn't seem to be okay. When he was about to say something, Zhou Heng already said, "Brother, it's a group of people …"
"Go to work!"
Lee Wanning interrupted Zhou Heng and looked at Zhou Qu, saying, "You go in first, I'll tell you later."
Zhou Qu's face was filled with suspicion, especially when he saw Zhou Heng's hesitant look.
Zhou Family was still considered good, after all, there weren't many things inside, but other people weren't so lucky, and almost everything that could be smashed was smashed apart, so when Zhou Qu walked over, he only heard the sound of cursing.
The reason why Lee Wanning didn't want to tell Zhou Qu was not because of anything else, but because if Zhou Qu knew that the person was Ann Wen whom he rescued, he would definitely feel that today's incident was his fault and Lee Wanning naturally wouldn't let him do that.
Since Lee Wanning had already said so, Zhou Qu could only nod his head. Just as he was about to enter, he heard Aunt Huan's voice, "Sister Zhou Family!"
Hearing the voice, Lee Wanning immediately turned around and saw that it wasn't just Aunt Huan, but also a large group of people behind her.
When Lee Wanning was about to step forward, Zhou Qu was already standing in front of her and said, "Aunt Huan, what are you trying to do?"
Zhou Qu's face was full of seriousness. Aunt Huan immediately understood that he probably thought she was here to fight.
She immediately said, "No, Boss Zhou, this is a misunderstanding. We just came to discuss something with you!"
"What is it?" Zhou Qu frowned.
"Today, that group of people are way too outrageous. We, ah, are preparing to report them to the officials. We can't let them think that there's no one left in our Guxi Village, no?! We all know that Big Sis Zhou Family is more talkative, so we wanted her to go with us! "
Zhou Qu's eyes immediately looked at himself, "Who is it that came today?"
Lee Wanning touched her nose and said, "Zhou Qu, listen to me first, it's like this, there are a few people here today, they are here to clean up, maybe they are enemies or something. Then, there's no one left in our village.
"It's more than just searching!" One of the older brother's eyes reddened as he said, "At that time, my wife thought that bandits were hiding things inside. They immediately came over and threw my wife out. That would be too painful!"
"There's actually such a thing?!" "We must report this to the government!" When Zhou Qu heard this, he immediately said. Lee Wanning pulled him back and said, "Don't make fun of me."
Finished speaking, Lee Wanning looked at the people in front of her, and said, "Everyone, you all have seen it today, those people are dressed like bandits and rascals, and they came as long as they come, they must have trained well, so what do we have with our Guxi Village? It was nothing. They were here for that person. Since they couldn't see him, they had to search him once before they could report to him. Who was the person that did this? It must be the people inside the government. As the saying goes, the people do not fight with the officials. Going up to their territory to report to them like this, aren't you looking to die? "
Lee Wanning's voice was not loud, but when she said that sentence, it made everyone quieten down. Aunt Huan thought for a moment, then said, "Then according to Sister Zhou Family's intentions …"
"Anyway, they haven't stolen anything yet, so we'll just treat it as robbing money to fend them off. If we provoke them and set them on fire, then it would be more than worth it. Say, is that right?"
After Lee Wanning finished her sentence, everyone thought about it and agreed. After all, no matter which family they came from, they would have to lead a life. If they really did cause such a thing, wouldn't they be able to lead a life in the future?
After seeing that everyone had left, Zhou Qu slowly said, "Is the person they are looking for Ann Wen?"
Although Zhou Qu looked honest, he wasn't stupid at all. Lee Wanning looked at him and nodded.
Zhou Qu clenched his fist. Lee Wanning felt that something was wrong when she saw his posture, so she pulled him back and said, "Calm down!" If you go to them now, there won't be any benefit at all, and you might even implicate the entire village. Do you know that? "It's alright. Fortunately, Wu Tie had already left by that time. Otherwise, it would have been troublesome!"
Zhou Qu looked at Lee Wanning and suddenly remembered the man's words. He pulled her back and said, "Then are you alright?"
Lee Wanning shook her head and said, "I'm fine. If they want to search, they can just let them do so. They don't have anything else anyway, so why don't they just return with all their money?"
"Does Eldest Sister-in-Law know this as well?" Zhou Heng's voice was filled with surprise.
As Lee Wanning looked at him, she suddenly remembered what Zhou Qu had told her yesterday about him liking her. When she was about to say something, Zhou Huai said, "Not only that, my sister-in-law can't even read. Young Master An left a note when he left, and it was also my sister-in-law who read it!"
This time, Zhou Qu also looked over. Lee Wanning touched her nose and said, "It's nothing. It's just that we used to have a private school in the village. I hid outside and secretly learned for a while."
Finishing her words, she carefully looked at the few people in front of her. Only after seeing that there wasn't much doubt on their faces did she finally relax.
It was said that ten years was like a cold window, but in modern times, students were like ten years. From kindergarten to university to graduate student, Lee Wanning had read at least twice as many books as Zhou Heng.
At night, the entire Guxi Village was dark, and only the Zhou Family was used for cooking and eating.
The items in Lee Wanning's space had almost been harvested. Seeing that it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lee Wanning was accumulating gold coins, preparing to make her own mooncake when the time came.
Just as she was thinking about that, Zhou Heng slowly said, "Bro, sister-in-law, I have something to tell you."
Lee Wanning didn't hear him before she lowered her head to eat. When Zhou Qu, who was beside her, pulled her, she finally reacted and raised her head to ask, "What's the matter?"
"It's about my marriage with Bian Family …"
Hearing Zhou Heng's words, Lee Wanning slapped her head and said, "Look at me, I actually forgot about that. You and..." What do you think? "
Lee Wanning almost blurted out the matter of her stealing glances at the two of them last night. When the words reached her mouth, she immediately changed it.
Zhou Heng said, "Right now, our family's situation isn't very good. What I mean is, we can choose a good day after we get married."
"Alright, I'll listen to you." Zhou Qu immediately said with an expression that was even happier than Zhou Heng. Lee Wanning knew that he must have felt that Zhou Heng would give up on her after he married her.
This person still hadn't taken his words to heart.
However, the undeniable fact was, in Lee Wanning's heart, there was still a bit of happiness.
After dinner, Lee Wanning went to take a bath again. When she entered the room, she saw Zhou Qu sitting on the edge of the bed, counting something in his hand.
Lee Wanning wiped her hair and said, "What are you doing?"
Zhou Qu turned around and saw a few pieces of silver on it.
"Since Zhou Heng said that he wanted to marry, then of course we have to prepare the betrothal gift. However, this family..." I want to go up to that mountain tomorrow and fight two wolves or foxes. If I peel off that hide, I can sell it for a good price. "
"That won't do, your feet are not fully recovered yet. What if there is some danger?"
"Then what should we do? "This house …"
"Don't worry. What's important about Bian Family is the menu for my dish. As long as you have the menu, anything can be discussed."
As Lee Wanning spoke, Zhou Qu had already received the cloth from his hands and helped him wipe his hair.
Lee Wanning was happy to enjoy herself, so she let him have his way.
She said, "Last time I was busy with some silver coins at the Bian Family Inn, after two days, we can go to the market again. I'll sell some things, money or the like, and it won't be a problem."
"Where did you get this?"
Upon hearing Zhou Qu's words, Lee Wanning couldn't help but choke and continued, "I can change, do you believe me?"
Zhou Qu nodded with a smile. "I believe it. I believe everything Aa Ning says."
Lee Wanning smiled and laid down on the bed with her head on Zhou Qu's thigh, making it easier for him to wipe his hair. Lee Wanning said, "Wait until Zhou Heng's matter is settled, then I can carry out my plan. I don't like to be like this, thinking about money every time. I want to earn a lot of money.
Lee Wanning's voice became quieter as she spoke. Zhou Qu looked at her and sighed slowly.
The next day, while Lee Wanning was still weeding her little vegetable seedlings in the yard, she heard a voice from outside the door, "Lee Wanning!"
Here, no one dared to call his name.
Lee Wanning raised her eyes and saw Aunt Lee standing there, staring at her with a malicious look.
Lee Wanning pretended not to see him and continued to lower her head. Aunt Lee was flustered and said, "Girl, you're still pretending you don't know me, aren't you? "You …"
"If you have anything to say, then just say it, if you have the strength to scold me then scold me. After you scold me, then the sun will set." As Lee Wanning spoke, she stood up slowly and dusted herself off with both hands.
Only then did Aunt Lee remember the important matter she had come for. She could only suppress the anger in her heart as she said, "Your father is sick and is currently in bed!"
