She couldn't help but look at Chu Zhiyi.

Even though he was wearing burlap clothes, the muscle lines on his body were still vaguely visible.

His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and the scar on his face made his already handsome face even more sinister.

He could even kill a bear, and it was even easier to deal with her.

But Qiao Nian felt that he was not a bad person.

People in the village think highly of him, and he can even be called a good person.

Since you are a good person, you will not force others.

So, Qiao Nian took a deep breath and then said, "Brother Bai, I don't want to get married. I can't accept this money."

"..."

Chu Zhiyi raised his eyes and looked at Qiao Nian in surprise. The night had fallen and the room was lit with candles.

He couldn't see her face clearly, but he could clearly see the panic flashing in her bright eyes.

Knowing that his words just now caused her to misunderstand, Chu Zhiyi said, "The villagers in Hewan are simple and honest, but they can't keep a few mouse droppings. You can put them under the bed to be safer."

Fifty taels is not a small amount, it is enough for ordinary people to live without worries for several years.

Qiao Nian was stunned again.

Did she misunderstand?

His cheeks instantly became hot.

Others saved her with good intentions, but she actually felt that their intentions were impure!

Feeling intense guilt, Qiao Nian hurriedly spoke, "I'm sorry, Brother Bai, I, I shouldn't have misunderstood..."

Chu Zhiyi didn't pay attention, "It's because I don't talk enough and my words don't convey my meaning. Don't worry about it."

After that, he put down the wooden board leaning against the wall, put on his clothes and lay down on it.

How could a man who had been sleeping in the yard since he rescued her have other thoughts about her?

Qiao Nian cursed herself secretly again, then turned back to the house and hid the money under the bed.

At night, the rat droppings came indeed.

While sleeping, Qiao Nian vaguely noticed someone touching her cheek.

At that moment, he opened his eyes alertly, and met those slender eyes.

"ah!"

She exclaimed.

The other party obviously didn't expect Qiao Nian to wake up suddenly. Before he could react, Chu Zhiyi jumped in from the window.

One punch hit the opponent's face.

The force was so strong that the opponent fell to the ground immediately.

At the same time, a figure flashed away from the window on the other side.

Seeing this, Qiao Nian took out a stone and pointed it at the man.

It happened to hit the opponent's leg.

However, the strength was not enough. Although the opponent fell in pain, he quickly got up and continued running away.

Qiao Nian frowned and secretly clicked his tongue.

As expected, she hasn't mastered this skill yet.

And Chu Zhiyi had already walked up to the man who fell on the ground, grabbed the other person's collar with one hand, and slapped him hard on the cheek with the other hand.

The palm like a cattail leaf fan made the man dizzy with just one blow, and he begged for mercy again and again, "Bai, Brother Bai, I was wrong, I was wrong."

Chu Zhiyi didn't listen and slapped him again, knocking him unconscious.

Then he stood up and turned to look at Qiao Nian, "Do you know martial arts?"

Qiao Nian didn't expect that it was so dark that Chu Zhiyi could still see her taking action just now. He nodded slightly and said, "I know a little bit."

A little bit?

Under the darkness of night, Chu Zhiyi looked at Qiao Nian.

She was wearing a safety buckle carved by his own hands. She should be Jing Yan's sister.

He knows a little bit of martial arts, probably taught by Jing Yan.

However, the move she just made was Xiao He's.

She also knows Xiao He?

Since I learned this trick from Xiao He, why did I get beaten all over with injuries?

What is her identity?

When Xiao He came back from the Forbidden Army, he went directly to his study.

But unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Xiao Heng.

His eyes darkened slightly, and he stepped forward as if nothing had happened, and asked calmly, "Why are you here? You don't need to watch from the other side of the Changyang River?"

"No, I've sent someone to keep an eye on it." Xiao Heng also said lightly, but his eyes were staring at Xiao He like an eagle.

Seeing Xiao He's eyes flicking across the table with a vague look, Xiao Heng smiled coldly and picked up a piece of letter paper between his index and middle fingers, "Brother, are you looking for this?"

Xiao He's face darkened and he said nothing.

Those were letters sent by people sent to the Changyang River branch. They came every day, and every day they said that they had not been found yet.

The sarcasm at the corner of Xiao Heng's mouth became more and more intense, "Brother, what do you mean by being so sneaky? Do you want to find Nian Nian and then fly away without telling me?"

He looked a bit like he was trying to catch a traitor.

It only made Xiao He laugh heartily, "Xiao Heng, she is my wife. Where I go with her has nothing to do with you."

"Your wife?" Xiao Heng leaned on the chair, his smile gradually fading, "You have reconciled a long time ago."

Even though the letter of separation was given by Xiao's mother, Xiao He's fingerprints were actually pressed on it.

During the twelve hours he was unconscious, Qiao Nian had nothing to do with him!

This matter is Xiao He's pain point.

His hands behind his back suddenly clenched tightly, he looked at Xiao Heng, his voice was slightly cold, "Even so, you should not have imprisoned her! If it weren't for you, Nian Nian would not have jumped into the Changyang River, and she is still alive today. People die without seeing their bodies!”

But without thinking, Xiao Heng stood up suddenly, "She should have been mine! She is the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, and the person I am engaged to is supposed to be her! If you hadn't insisted on interfering that day, I would have been above board. Marry her!"

Xiao Heng shouted, his tone full of blame, "You know best what I have done for her! You also know best how much I care about her! You are my brother!"

"It is because I am your brother! I did not deal with you!" Xiao He also shouted harshly.

He moved the Marquis' Mansion and Sun Xian.

He did not move Xiao Heng.

"She is a person, not an object! She has her own life, and she does not belong to anyone!"

She should have the final say on where to go!

Even if he wanted to accompany her, he would only accompany her to where she wanted to go!

Instead of imprisoning her in a certain place, restricting her freedom, and still saying that he loves her!

Xiao He's words were like a sharp knife, stabbing Xiao Heng's heart fiercely.

However, those sinister eyes became more and more paranoid, "No, she is mine, no one can take her away! I will send someone to find her near the branch of Changyang River, don't worry about it."

After that, he slapped the letter in his hand on the table, "Call back your people, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

He was about to go out after he finished speaking, but unexpectedly, Xiao He just said lightly, "I won't call them back."

Hearing this, Xiao Heng's suppressed anger finally burst out.

He clenched his fists hanging at his side, turned around suddenly and greeted Xiao He's face.

Xiao He leaned back slightly, trying to avoid it, but unexpectedly, Xiao Heng's fist attacked again.

He could only step back step by step.

On the contrary, Xiao Heng pressed forward step by step.

Unexpectedly, Xiao's mother suddenly appeared outside the study.

Xiao He was startled, and seeing Xiao Heng's fist attacking, he finally stopped and didn't hide.
