Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yu Hongyan was washing the dishes when that happened. When she heard him, she quickly went out of the courtyard and laughed loudly, "Alright, you can go. I'll keep an eye on Jiang Yue, but he'll have to come back quickly and bring Jiang Yue back. I have something to do later, so I can't keep an eye on Jiang Yue for long."
"Fine, fine, fine. It won't be long." Lu Zhuangniu agreed as he left with Xue Yan.
Jiang Yue had no choice but to follow Yu Hongyan into the courtyard and stay within her line of sight.
Jiang Yue sat on the side of the central room and watched as Yu Hongyan washed the dishes. She then went to the small vegetable field in the courtyard and plucked the weeds.
Jiang Yue hurried over to help.
"Jiang Yue, you're too sensible." Yu Hongyan opened her mouth and praised her again.
Jiang Yue was embarrassed by that praise.
The weeds in the vegetable field had been pulled out, but Xue Yan still hadn't returned. Seeing that Yu Hongyan didn't know whether she should go out or not, Jiang Yue suggested something, "If you're busy, go ahead. I'm fine staying home alone."
It would be best if she was alone at home. It would be more convenient for her to secretly go hunting in the mountains.
However, Yu Hongyan immediately rejected the idea and said with extreme righteousness, "How can I do that? You're such a young child. We can't leave you alone at home!"
However, Yu Hongyan really had something urgent to do. She wanted to go back to her mother's house to see her. She heard that her mother was not feeling well and her mother's house was not far away. It was only two villages away. However, her brothers and sisters-in-law despised her because she married a poor man like Xue Erfu. They did not get many betrothal gifts. Ever since she married into the family, every time she went back, she was inevitably mocked and angered by many relatives.
She had a bad temper, but for her mother, she could endure it. In fact, she could bring Jiang Yue with her, but she did not want Jiang Yue to suffer the boredom of her family.
If her mother wasn't her biological mother who treated her especially well and had agreed to her marriage to Xue Erfu despite her brothers and sisters-in-law's objections, she really wouldn't want to return to her maternal family.
"How about this, Jiang Yue..." Yu Hongyan suddenly placed both her hands on Jiang Yue's shoulders. "I really have something to do and need to go out, but I'm worried about you being alone at home. How about this, I'll send you to Xue Yan?"
If she went to find Xue Yan, she might have the chance to sneak into the deep mountains while he attended to his own matters. Jiang Yue agreed without thinking, "Alright," she said.
Xue Yan was still at the village chief's house. Xue Yan was sitting at the table with a pen in his hand, but he didn't write much on the paper. Zheng's sons and daughters-in-law were quarreling with each other because of the uneven distribution of assets, so he couldn't write anything in the document at all.
Xue Yan couldn't leave for a while, and all he could hear was the bickering sounds.
He hoped that Wufu was still alive and well.
"Xue Yan."
All of a sudden, Xue Yan saw his second sister-in-law coming in with Jiang Yue in Zheng's courtyard. He put down his brush, got down from the stool, and walked out of the room.
"I have something to do, I'll leave Jiang Yue to you." Yu Hongyan pushed Jiang Yue in front of him.
Xue Yan could clearly see the helplessness in Jiang Yue's eyes. Even at this time, she still hadn't gone to the deep mountains. Xue Yan couldn't help but show sympathy in his eyes.
He sympathized with her.
He also sympathized with himself.
He too was also tied down by some matters and could not leave. However, Xue Yan knew that his second sister-in-law was going back to her parent's house. Once she left, he let Jiang Yue go play alone, and then Jiang Yue could go to the deep mountains.
"No problem, you can go." Xue Yan agreed without thinking.
Unexpectedly, the village chief also walked out at this time from the noise.
