C98

The scene in front of him caused Xiaowan to be startled, her husband once again extended his hand out to the woman, and she once again pushed Ling Chaofeng away.

They obviously knew each other.

Xiaowan opened the door and stopped moving forward. She slowly returned the door back to its original position and softly climbed back onto the bed.

She listened intently, but there was no sound coming from downstairs. She could not guess how they were doing, but not long after, Ling Chaofeng returned.

He could feel that the people behind him were filled with anger, and it wasn't because of the pampering they gave him when they were strict. He was truly angry.

That night, Xiaowan was in a daze as she dreamt of many scenes. When she saw that his wife was bullied by her mother-in-law and that her daughter was taken away, she woke up with a start, her heart thumping.

She sat up. The bed was empty and her husband was already up.

This time, he could easily open the door and exit, but the person who was kneeling outside Cloudburst's room on the second floor had also disappeared.

Just as Xiaowan went downstairs, she saw her husband returning from outside. Early in the morning, he went to the town and brought the doctor over.

The husband and wife looked at each other, Xiaowan did not have time to see the look in Ling Chaofeng's eyes, so the doctor followed him up to the second floor.

It was not the wife's mother-in-law's room, nor was it hers and her husband's room. Xiaowan followed them all the way to the door and saw that the wife was lying on the bed, unconscious.

At this time, there was movement in Yun Peng's room, the door opened a little, as if the woman kneeling in front of the door was nowhere to be seen, a sneer came from the Old Madem, and he closed the door.

After that, he seemed to have put on some clothes. He opened the door and saw Xiaowan in the corridor, and said: "Lad, get me some water."

The Xiaowan did not reply. She walked closer to her and examined her body, then snorted: "I can't tell, but she's a young lady who's pregnant, right? In this world, every woman can have a baby, but my family just can't lay an egg."

She stood in front of Yun Lai's room and yelled, "Jinxin, how long are you planning to sleep? Still not coming to serve me and your father-in-law?"

However, there wasn't any reaction in the room. How could there be any reaction? The other party had already fainted. Xiaowan thought, so her name was Jinxin.

Old Madem knocked on the door. Seeing that there was no lock on the door, he might as well rush in. A voice came from inside: "Son, where is your wife?"

She quickly ran out and looked around. Seeing that the door to Yunze Room was open, she barged in and saw her daughter-in-law lying unconscious on the bed.

The Xiaowan followed them in. Without waiting for Ling Chaofeng to speak, he said first, "She fainted in the corridor. We were afraid that someone might lose our lives so we invited a doctor."

Ling Chaofeng was startled, and did not say a word.

Old Madem went up to take a look, and impolitely slapped his daughter-in-law's face twice, scolding: "Lazy guy, what are you pretending to be dead for, wake up."

Jinxin rolled her eyes a little, but she was too weak and couldn't even open her eyes. Her mother-in-law scolded her instead: "You must have deliberately pretended to die to delay our trip. Let me tell you, even if I leave you in the wilderness, I can't miss this chance."

But at that moment, her son, the wife's husband appeared from outside the door. He looked at his wife who was lying on the bed with a complicated look in his eyes, and said: "Mother, Little Xuan has a fever."

Old Madem was startled, then said to the doctor: "Go see my granddaughter first, she must not get into trouble."

The doctor was dragged to the next room, and the only ones left in the room were the unconscious Jinxin, Xiaowan and Ling Chaofeng. She walked forward and covered Jinxin with the blanket and turned around, and his husband was right behind her.

"Late, thank you." Ling Chaofeng said.

Xiaowan looked at her with a smile on her face. She didn't want her husband to feel sad, so she guessed that there must be a reason behind it.

Ling Chaofeng laughed and helped her: "What is happening here, if there is any disturbance, I might hurt you. Go to the third floor to rest, don't come down if there is nothing else."

Xiaowan was very obedient, she knew that Ling Chaofeng could take care of everything.

Not long after, Susu came to work and brought Xiaowan breakfast. After hearing what happened last night, she sighed and said, "Da Qing also said that his wife is very pitiful. "We're both women, why do there always be nanny in the world who love to have a hard time with their daughter-in-law?"

The Xiaowan said, "Susu, take care of that wife. If she wakes up and finds out that her daughter is sick, it will be even more worrying. That Old Madem is really too evil, to actually want to send their six year old granddaughter to be a child's daughter-in-law, this is something that only the poor families would do, their families are not poor, how can they bear to do that? "

When she heard the husband and wife talking in the room, the man seemed to order her around, as if he wanted her to help him out. When she refused, he scolded her and said that she had ruined the mood.

As a result, the people in the inn were extremely angry at the Old Madem's family. The pitiful young woman wanted to protect her daughter, but she couldn't.

Not long after, the family came downstairs to eat breakfast, inquire about the distance, and agreed to rent a carriage, but the Uncle Biao said that the carriage in the inn could not be borrowed, and they had no choice but to send their young son to the town to see if they could borrow a carriage.

Miss Jinxin was in a coma for the whole day, so Susu would visit her often to take care of her. When she went upstairs, he quietly said to the Xiaowan: "I helped her wipe her body, and found that there were wounds on her body, as if she had been abused."

When she walked out of the room and looked downstairs, Ling Chaofeng was indifferently standing behind the counter. At first glance, he looked no different from any other times, but only Xiaowan could feel the killing intent that was rising from his back.

Jinxin and him... Xiaowan's heart quivered. She remembered that during the Dragon Boat Festival, when she was at the Li Prefecture Inn, they spoke about what they had said as children. Hubby said that the daughter of the house next door was at the same age as him, a playmate who had grown up together.

From the looks of it, Lady Jinxin was a bit older than Xiaowan and Susu. Could she be the daughter of the cloth farm?

It was getting late in the night, and Da Qing had already finished working to pick up Susu, but the son of the family did not come back. When Jinxin's wife woke up, she ran back to her room to take care of her feverish daughter, but after dinner, she still did not see her son back.

"It's all your fault. Why do you have to walk on such a dry road? Do you really think that you can escape by delaying every day?" In Yun Lai's room, the sound of cursing could be heard. It seemed like the sound of someone hitting someone could be heard.

"Mother, Little Xuan is still having a fever, I beg of you …" But no matter how Jinxin begged, her mother-in-law did not stop tormenting her.

It was at this moment that two thin yet ferocious men entered the inn. They were either hoodlums or hooligans, and between them stood a seductive and vulgar woman.

She cautiously and curiously looked around the inn, but did not directly rush in, and asked while standing at the door: "Who is Manager Ling?"

Just as he was about to go upstairs, Ling Chaofeng turned around and said, "This one is."

The woman was startled by Ling Chaofeng's attitude, her eyebrows immediately softened and she laughed: "Manager Ling, sorry for disturbing you late at night. This humble one is from the Ten Thousand Flowers House, you have a guest here who eats wine at our place and doesn't pay. We have temporarily detained him and have come to ask his family for silver, so we will naturally release him. "

Ling Chaofeng pointed upstairs: "Go ahead."

The Old Madem would never have thought that the son who went to the town to look for a carriage, would end up in a whorehouse, spending all sorts of money just like that. It was already the middle of the night when she accompanied him to bring him back.

That night, the man in black woke up from her drinking, as though she wanted to use force against her wife. When Jinxin refused to obey, the two of them started an argument, which alarmed the old granny next door.

Old Madem rushed towards Yun Lai. Originally, she was already filled with anger, but when he beat her daughter-in-law to death, he said that it was because she was useless and wanted her son to go out and have fun.

"Lift her up and beat her. Let's see if she's willing to submit!"

Xiaowan was upstairs, but hearing such a clamor, she was so angry that she was about to go crazy.

However, Ling Chaofeng, who was lying on the side, was completely indifferent. He was still so nervous last night, so nervous this morning …

"Hubby!" Xiaowan could not hold it in anymore and sat up while holding onto Ling Chaofeng's clothes, "You're just going to watch your family torture your playmate when you were young? "She's your childhood sweetheart, right? Hubby, I won't be angry, I won't be jealous, go save her!"

In Ling Chaofeng's indifferent eyes, there was clearly killing intent, but he was still calm as he said: "Evening, go to sleep."

"You don't have to care, I'll care. I won't allow anyone to beat someone up in our inn." Xiaowan was very excited, but Ling Chaofeng supported her and pushed her gently onto the bed, saying with a resolute expression, "Don't meddle in other people's business, sleep."

Xiaowan was so anxious that she almost died. Suddenly, she remembered about her ring and immediately clenched her fists and made her wish. She hoped that Miss Jinxin would not suffer anymore.

As expected, not long after, the commotion downstairs stopped, and they did not know how Jinxin's wife was doing. Xiaowan believed in the Jade Ring and would not let her down.

The next day, she woke up earlier than Ling Chaofeng. When she went downstairs, the woman also pushed open the door and came out, her face was swollen to the side and her body was covered in blood. When she raised her hand, half of her arm was revealed from her sleeve.

"Morning." Xiaowan choked out a word; she really didn't know what she should say.

"Manager, good morning." The wife was very amiable. She went downstairs with Xiaowan and asked, "My family's father-in-law is so used to eating breakfast from me. May I borrow the kitchen?"

Uncle Biao heard about it and said, "How about I build a stove at the back door for you?"

Jinxin was very grateful: "Thank you."

She followed Uncle Biao to the back door. Xiaowan watched in a daze, then raised his head, only to see Ling Chaofeng standing upstairs, looking at his wife. Ling Chaofeng shook his head at her, but he didn't know what that meant.

Xiaowan went to the kitchen to eat breakfast, while Uncle Biao steamed some delicious barbecue for her. Xiaowan ate two of them herself, filled four or five in a plate, then came towards the back door to give them to Jinxin.

Jinxin sat on a small stool at the side. Just as Xiaowan stepped out, he saw her take out a packet of medicinal powder from her chest, with a apathetic expression, she sprinkled all the medicinal powder into the pot.
