Vegetable fields, field ridges, the river bank…

She could quickly check nearby places, but those farther away would take more time.

Did she go into the village?

He ran quickly towards the area where most villagers congregated, scanning all around. When he reached the village well and saw many people lined up to fetch water, he couldn’t spot his wife.

Shi Shanzao saw him and her eyes brightened, “Brother Chuan, what are you looking for?”

Wang Adou came over from behind and said with a concerned face, “He’s looking for his wife, nobody has seen her…” “Chuan, your wife didn’t run away again, did she? Maybe you should hurry and check the direction of the town…”

Xiao Yuchuan’s facial expression changed, “My wife wouldn’t run away, don’t talk nonsense! ”

Shi Shanzao frowned, “Brother Chuan, I’m not trying to be mean, but Su

Qingyue has even stolen money before when she ran away…”

“Shut your mouth!” Xiao Yuchuan glared at her fiercely, “Even if you were the thief, my wife would never be the one!”

“Wow!” The villagers around them were all stirred up by this.

Shi Shanzao’s tears welled up in her eyes and she said tearfully, “Brother Chuan, how could you treat me like this!” As she spoke, she wiped away her tears and began crying.

“Hey, Yuchuan, don’t just blurt things out. Shi Shanzao has always been a well-behaved and capable girl. Why would she steal like your wife did?” Someone wanted to chime in, but was silenced by his imposing gaze, becoming somewhat fearful.

Some others teased, “Chuan, since you’ve tarnished little sister Shi’s reputation, if she can’t get married, would you marry her?” Xiao Yuchuan’s face flushed, “I already have a wife.”

“True, even without a wife, your family’s condition still wouldn’t be good enough for the Shi Family. Look at how Shanzao calls you ‘Brother Chuan’…when she sees you, her eyes sparkle… Who doesn’t know that girl likes you? Just don’t know if you like her back?” Wang Adou stared at him,

“Shanzao’s not bad looking; the two of you would be a good match.”

Xiao Yuchuan’s voice was cold, “Enough with the nonsense!”

Aunt Zhang came from another forked road in the village, “Chuan, I heard your wife disappeared? I just came back from the town, and didn’t see your wife…”

“Maybe she’s afraid of the Xiao Family and is hiding in the mountains…” Wang Adou had barely finished when many people began looking behind him.

Wang Adou turned to look, and saw Su Qingyue walking over leisurely, wearing oversized men’s clothes, with her sleeves and pant legs rolled up and torn common cloth shoes on her feet.

Despite this, her unhurried steps somehow seemed quite comfortable.

“A dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory!” Xiao Yuchuan glared at Wang Adou and ran to Su Qingyue, happily calling out, “My dear!”

Su Qingyue gave him a big roll of her eyes. With so many people around, he just had to call her his wife. Judging from the expressions of the people in the village, it seemed like everyone thought they had some kind of relationship with each other

As she was about to explain, she remembered how long she had been staying at the Xiao Family’s house. She thought it was better not to make the situation worse.

Just then, Li Cai, who also came to fetch water with a water bucket, came into view. When he saw Xiao Yuchuan, he instantly became furious, thinking about being splashed with half a bucket of bathwater the night before last. When he went home and complained to his big brother Li Gui, his brother actually asked him to let it go, which really pissed him off!

He was too embarrassed to tell others about it, otherwise, everyone would know he had drunk Chuan’s bathwater, and they would laugh at him to death..
