Yan Jiuchao spoke slowly. Du Jinhua pricked up her ears but could not hear what he said.
However, Du Jinhua could tell that Young Master Wan was teasing the girl from the Yu family. Looking at the girl’s reaction, it didn’t seem to be the first time.
Young Master Wan had only moved in for a few days, but the two of them had already hooked up. This brat was really shameless!
Yu Wan rushed up the mountain and did not spend too much time dealing with Yan Jiuchao. It was mainly because this fellow was too shameless. If she were to argue with him, she would definitely be the one angered in the end.
Yu Wan decisively ignored him. Under Yan Jiuchao’s extremely annoying gaze, she carried the basket and went up the mountain!
Yan Jiuchao kept looking at Yu Wan’s back until she completely disappeared from the end of the mountain path before walking back into the house.
Du Jinhua fell into deep thought. Young Master Wan seemed to have some feelings for the girl from the Yu family. If it were any other village girl, Du Jinhua would not have been afraid, but it was Yu Wan.
Her daughter was right about one thing. Yu Wan was also beautiful. She was even more beautiful than her daughter and knew how to seduce men. In comparison, her daughter’s chances of winning were much lower.
“I’m afraid Young Master Wan doesn’t know that that girl’s reputation isn’t good. If he finds out that she’s indecent outside and got Scholar Zhao to cancel the engagement, I’m afraid he won’t want her anymore…”
Du Jinhua decided to find a suitable time to expose Yu Wan’s bad reputation to the Wan family.
What the plan could not keep up with was that something else had happened before that.
When Guo Xianyue returned to the old residence, she did not see Du Jinhua return for a long time. Worried that she had done something out of line, she quickly turned around to look for her. When she passed by the deserted fish pond, her purse accidentally fell in. She went to pick it up and wet her sleeve.
Du Jinhua passed by the small fish pond and happened to see her daughter squatting by the water and twisting the water on her sleeve.
Du Jinhua had a flash of inspiration. What timing is this? Wasn’t now the best time? There was still a risk in telling the tales. What if the entire village spoke up for that girl? Wouldn’t Young Master Wan not believe it? But if… the two of them had physical contact, Young Master Wan would have no choice but to marry her!
“Yue’er!” Du Jinhua walked over with a smile.
“Mother.” Guo Xianyue stood up aggrievedly. “My sleeve is wet.”
“It’s good that it’s wet!” Du Jinhua grabbed her daughter’s hand and pulled her towards Ah Wan’s house.
Guo Xianyue did not understand what her mother was talking about. She looked in the direction in front of her and frowned. “Mother, we’ve gone the wrong way. We should go east.”
“That’s right, it’s this way!” Du Jinhua pulled her daughter all the way to Yu Wan’s house.
Madam Jiang and Little Bruiser were still sleeping soundly. The front door was closed, but the back door was not locked.
“Mother, what are you doing?”
Du Jinhua brought her daughter into the kitchen and whispered to Mrs. Jiang’s room, “Sister Jiang, Yue’er’s clothes are wet. I’ll find something from Ah Wan for her to change into.” She had already greeted them. Whether Madam Jiang heard her or not was up to her.
“It’s just a wet sleeve. There’s no need to change my cousin’s clothes.” Guo Xianyue would not admit that Yu Wan’s clothes were too shabby and she looked down on them.
Du Jinhua glared at her and entered Yu Wan’s room. She opened the wardrobe and casually picked out a small flowery jacket that had turned yellow from washing.
“So tacky.” Guo Xianyue frowned.
Du Jinhua put it on for her without any explanation.
Guo Xianyue really did not understand what her mother was thinking. Why would she let her wear such old-fashioned clothes? If Young Master Wan saw this later, he would probably look down on her even more.
Du Jinhua did not tell her daughter the plan. She wanted her daughter to look silly so that she would not expose herself and would be more lovable.
Du Jinhua looked at her daughter a few times and let her hair down before bringing her daughter to the fish pond. She let go of her daughter’s hand and carefully searched the shore.
“Mother, what are you looking for?” Guo Xianyue asked curiously.
“Found it! Come over quickly!” Du Jinhua waved at her daughter.
Guo Xianyue walked over strangely and saw Du Jinhua squatting down, holding a thick bush of wild grass.
“Here, grab it!” Du told her daughter.
Guo Xianyue slowly squatted down and grabbed it in confusion. Just as she was about to ask her mother, she felt a weight on her shoulder. Du Jinhua had pushed her into the water!
“Uh—” Guo Xianyue did not expect this change. Even though she had grabbed the weeds, she still choked on a mouthful of water.
Du Jinhua saw that the time was ripe and ran towards the Ding family.
Before she entered the house, she shouted, “Young Master Wan! Young Master Wan, something’s wrong—Ah Wan fell into the water—she’s at the small fish pond—”
Du Jinhua only shouted once before Yan Jiuchao’s figure flashed out!
Du Jinhua smiled smugly when she saw how flustered he was. She had indeed made the right bet. Since Young Master Wan cared so much about that little vixen, he would definitely save her without hesitation.
By the time he saved her, it would be too late to realize that she was not that little vixen. There was a saying that men and women should not touch each other. He had touched her daughter’s body, so her daughter was his. He could forget about getting rid of her in this lifetime!
However, in case he refused to admit it, she still needed some “witnesses”.
Du Jinhua’s voice was even louder than Aunt Bai’s. She kept saying that someone had fallen into the water, shocking almost the entire village.
The first to arrive at the fish pond was Aunt Bai. There was actually someone whose voice was louder than hers. She was unconvinced! After that, Cui Hua and Aunt Zhang who were washing their clothes beside the old well at the village entrance came.
Uncle’s legs were inconvenient, and he didn’t make it in time.
On the other hand, the Yu brothers had come early. This time, even Aunt, who usually didn’t join in the fun, dropped the washboard and ran over.
The village headman, Little Chen, Shuanzi, his father, the hunter, Widow Liu… They all rushed to the fish pond.
Although the fish pond was deep, it was not big. Soon, the place where they could stand was filled with people.
Du Jinhua looked through the gap in the crowd from afar and could see the woman floating in the middle of the water. It seemed that her daughter had been too frightened after falling into the water and had accidentally let go. She fluttered to the center of the pond.
Fortunately, Young Master Wan was a good swimmer. He even saved her daughter!
Du Jinhua was overjoyed. So many people had seen it. There was no escape!
“Yue’er—” Du Jinhua “cried” as she rushed into the crowd. Just as she was about to call out to Young Master Wan, that person suddenly raised his head. When she saw his face clearly, Du Jinhua was suddenly dumbfounded.
Who, who was this man? He was not bad-looking. His eyebrows were defined, and his eyes were clear…
“Zhao Heng, grab it!” The village headman handed over a bamboo pole.
Zhao Heng, who was about to run out of energy, grabbed the bamboo pole handed over by the village headman.
Du Jinhua’s heart instantly turned cold. Wasn’t Young Master Wan the one who jumped into the water? Why did it become Zhao Heng? She knew about Zhao Heng. He was Ah Wan’s ex-fiancé and the only scholar in Lotus Flower Village. If it weren’t for Young Master Wan, Zhao Heng would have been a good candidate, but… but…
Her daughter was going to marry a poor scholar… Du Jinhua felt dizzy.
Just as Du Jinhua thought that the situation had reached its worst, the village headman and Shuanzi’s father pulled them ashore. However, the person in Zhao Heng’s arms was not Guo Xianyue, but Zhao Baomei!
“Ahem!” Zhao Baomei choked on a pool of dirty water.
Du Jinhua was truly dumbfounded now. It was fine if the person who saved her wasn’t Young Master Wan, but why did the person who was saved change?!
She pounced over and grabbed Zhao Baomei’s shoulder. “You, you… Who are you? Where’s Yue’er? Where’s my daughter?!”
Her daughter? Guo Xianyue? Or Guo Xianqiao?
Suddenly, Hunter and Cui Hua’s son, the ten-year-old Stone, pointed at the water and shouted, “Look! There’s someone there!”
Everyone looked in the direction of Stone’s finger and saw two heads suddenly pop up from the bottom of the water. The one with long hair on the left side and had already fainted was Du Jinhua’s eldest daughter, Guo Xianyue.
On the right, the person who pulled Guo Xianyue out of the water was the famous bachelor of Lotus Flower Village… Wang Mazi!
