After rebirth, I win people's hearts by being cute
Chapter 176 Changbai's Choice
Changbai came out from the secret corner, and Liu Huan felt unwell.
She turned her head away to deliberately block her sight and tried to hide her face, as if Changbai would not be able to recognize who she was.
Changbai didn't look at him, but looked at Old Lady Chu beside him and said, "I saw it just now. It was your little girl who kept pinching my hand, and I let go only when it hurt."
"Don't accuse me of covering up for you. If you don't agree, you can wait for the adults to come back and handle the case. But if your little girl's reputation is ruined in the end, don't blame others."
Although Old Mrs. Chu wanted to investigate, she knew it was almost certain after hearing these words.
There would be no benefit in pursuing the matter.
She knew to turn her gaze to Liu Huan, "Liu, then you swear not to marry my son."
"Old lady, I don't know who told you that I want to marry your son. I told you that it's not true."
"I am financially independent and have children, so why should I marry again?" She looked at Zhang Anxin with a pointed look, "I would like to remind you, old lady, that I am not the only widow in Heshui Village. I cannot guarantee whether other people have such thoughts."
Old Madam Chu immediately looked at Zhang Anxin beside Chu Ying with an unfriendly look. Seeing her lowering her head and looking guilty, she felt a sense of competition in her heart.
"Then you won't have to worry about it. Xuan'er, why don't you send Xiaoying and me back?"
Before Chu Xuan left, he hesitated several times and was unable to speak. He was pulled out of the room by Old Lady Chu.
The man named Wan knew that he had done something bad and had already run away.
Liu Huan took An Ran's hand and said quickly, "Let's go home."
"Madam..." Changbai didn't know what to say, but subconsciously wanted to keep Liu Huan and wait for Su Yi to come back.
Liu Huan closed his eyes, turned around and said seriously: "You've got the wrong person, I'm not your wife."
Changbai: “This…” Isn’t this just a lie? Is there anyone exactly like you in this world?
"Miss, let me take you back." Changbai finally chose a roundabout tactic and just called Liu Huan Miss.
Liu Huan still refused, "No, we have a carriage, so we won't bother you." When she reached the door, she turned back and couldn't help but remind him, "If you don't want to cause trouble for your master, you'd better not tell him that I'm here."
After saying that, he pretended to be calm and took the child away, but Qiu Rong behind him couldn't help but look back at him.
Since the yamen was close to their home, they naturally didn't need to take a carriage. After returning home, they felt exhausted, with their eyes dull and unfocused.
An Ran wanted to ask An Zhi to hold her back and shook her head at her.
The two siblings each held one of Liu Huan's hands and gave her silent comfort until Liu Huan came to her senses and called the two to the next room.
Only Ermo, Qiurong and Qiuju were left. When she looked up at the three of them, tears fell before she could say a word.
Qiu Rong knelt down in front of her and said in a tearful voice, "Miss, whatever choice you make, we will follow you."
Ever since meeting Changbai, Liu Huan suddenly remembered everything from the past. Those things that she had almost forgotten after all these years were now vivid in her mind.
Ermo said firmly: "Sister, when I first knew it was him, I was also extremely shocked. Then I thought, at worst we can just leave. If we can't afford to offend us, can't we just hide away?"
Liu Huan remained silent for a long time. After a long while, he waved his hand and said in a hoarse voice: "You guys go out first. Let me think about it."
Everyone left one by one. Qiu Ju was a person of action and she had already started packing her things.
Qiu Rong advised: "Qiu Ju, calm down first and wait for the master to think it over first."
Qiu Ju couldn't hold back her emotions and cried softly: "I just think that the adults are bullying too much. The master has finally come out. He appeared without anyone noticing. Isn't it enough that the master has already hidden here for him?"
Qiu Rong put her hand over her mouth and said, "Keep your voice down, or the young master and the others might hear you."
The conversation between the two gradually faded away, but An Zhi, who was standing beside him, never put down his fist. Only An Ran was confused and at a loss, "What happened to my brother, mother, and two aunts?"
Anzhi relaxed his facial expression and tried to smile, saying, "It's okay, we don't need to worry about adults' affairs, let's go eat something."
An Ran shook her head and pursed her lips, as if she was about to cry, "Did I get into trouble and make Mom angry?"
An Zhi hugged her and comforted her, "No, sister, it's none of your business. It was another bad guy who offended mother."
An Ran still wasn't comforted. She wiped her tears with her little hands and sobbed softly, "Brother, I will be obedient in the future."
An Zhi held her little face and said seriously: "An Ran doesn't need to be obedient, as long as An Ran is happy, she has a brother."
The two of them huddled together for warmth. Anzhi was still resentful about what she had just heard, resentful of that irresponsible man.
Changbai was also very conflicted. He was wondering whether he should tell his master about this, but as a subordinate, it would be unqualified of him to not say anything.
After struggling for a night, he made a fatal decision and pretended nothing happened!
Anyway, as long as the person is still in the county, they will meet sooner or later. Anyway, the lady and the master have been separated for so long that there is no need to rush. She will be able to get away with it by pretending to be stupid when the time comes.
Although I gave myself this psychological hint, I was always distracted when doing things, for example, when I was grinding ink, I didn't stop until the ink was about to overflow.
Su Yi stopped writing and looked at him. It took Changbai a long time to come back to his senses and realize that his sleeves were covered with ink.
Su Yi said: "If you feel uncomfortable, go back and rest for a day. Changyun will be fine."
Changbai was thinking about something, so he just pretended to be unwell and went back.
However, he did not go back to sleep. Instead, he changed his clothes and sneaked to Liu's house, which was the residence he had agreed to last night.
He knocked on the door for a long time but no one opened it. Just when he was wondering if his wife had run away with the children overnight, an old lady passed by.
Holding the food in her hand, she looked at him warily, "Young man, what do you do?"
"Auntie, this is my relative. Where did they go?"
The old lady looked around and asked, "Since they are relatives, don't you know that something happened to their family?"
Chang Bai's heart sank. "What happened?"
"Someone from their village came early this morning and said that she was disrupting the stability of the village and they wanted to expel them from Heshui Village. They made a lot of noise this morning."
Changbai remembered that he did hear a quarrel when he went to the yamen in the morning, but he didn't expect it was directed at them.
"Thank you, Auntie. I'll go take a look."
The old lady waved her hand and said, "It's okay, go ahead. I'm afraid that the girls are no match for those people."
After hearing this, Changbai did not delay any longer and called for an ox cart to head towards Heshui Village.
The one driving the cattle was Niu Bo. When he heard that he was going to Liu's house, he quickened his pace without saying a word. He couldn't stand the villagers bullying others by relying on their numbers.
