Cousin, Did You Bring People to Arrest Us?

Xiugu looked at Yinggu, feeling inexplicably depressed.

She was the one who saved Liu Fugui back then!

Zhou Wanwan suddenly spoke up, "I'm quite curious, Yinggu, how did you save Liu Fugui back then? Where did you save him?"

Yinggu was taken aback by the question and said, "What's it to you? Who do you think you are?"

Liu Fugui shouted, "She's my master! How dare you speak to her like that? Who do you think you are?"

Yinggu looked at Zhou Wanwan, whom she had always regarded as a wild child from the village. She stammered, "M-Master, what do you mean? Liu Fugui, have you sold yourself?"

Liu Fugui snorted coldly and said, "Everyone in Liu Family Village listens to her. She's our village's Little Ancestor, so you'd better watch your words."

Are you kidding me? Even the village chief wouldn't dare speak to Zhou Wanwan like that!

If the village chief finds out that Zhou Wanwan was wronged by him, do you think he'll let him off the hook?

Zhou Wanwan continued, "Yinggu, I'm asking you a question! How exactly did you save Liu Fugui, and where did you save him?"

Yinggu whispered, "Of course it was on the mountain. He fell into a trap, and when I... I saw it, I sent someone to rescue him."

Which mountain? What are you going up there for?

Yinggu stammered:

"That mountain behind, it's been so long, I've completely forgotten about it."

What's so interesting about asking that?

Zhou Wanwan looked at her with a half-smile and said, "Xiugu, which mountain was it again?"

Xiugu raised her head, looked at Zhou Wanwan, and said, "It's Maiden Mountain..."

Yinggu quickly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it's Maiden Mountain. It's been so long, I'd almost forgotten about it."

Zhou Wanwan continued to ask Yinggu, "So who did you ask to save him back then?"

Yinggu remained silent, Zhou Wanwan sneered:

"You weren't the one who saved Liu Fugui in the first place, were you?"

You impersonated Xiugu to save Liu Fugui, and then used that as leverage to blackmail him into marrying you, right?

Yinggu's face turned deathly pale. She looked at Xiugu and said, "Did you tell me? Only you know about this."

Xiugu quickly shook her head and said, "It wasn't me who said it. You gave yourself away. What does it have to do with me?"

Zhou Wanwan chuckled and said:

"Since Liu Fugui is unwilling to marry Yinggu, then the marriage between the two families is off, and you don't have the money."

How about we marry Xiugu to Liu Fugui?

Liu Fugui saw Xiugu blush, even though Xiugu was much prettier than Yinggu.

But at that time, he always regarded Yinggu as his savior.

Now that Zhou Wanwan had made the decision, Xiugu's parents were naturally happy. Xiugu said with a smile, "It's all up to you, Miss. But when will the wedding be?"

Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said, "There's no time like the present, let's get married today! I've brought everything."

Zhou Wanwan had prepared everything that needed to be prepared, and her maids quickly got everything ready as well.

Xiugu felt like she was dreaming; she was sitting on the bed, dressed in her wedding gown and wearing a red veil.

Zhou Wanwan had all the betrothal gifts gathered. They weren't anything expensive, just the usual things an ordinary family would give away when marrying off their daughter.

Two bolts of coarse cotton cloth, a peck of rice, two pounds of brown sugar, a blue headscarf, and two pairs of sewn coarse cloth shoe soles tied with red rope.

Zhou Wanwan said with a smile, "That's about enough. Now we can have the wedding ceremony."

Xiugu's parents looked at each other in surprise; they hadn't expected Zhou Wanwan to be so well-prepared.

Liu Fugui, also dressed in his wedding attire, came out beaming and asked, "Little Ancestor, doesn't it look good?"

"Looks quite energetic." But she's definitely not good-looking.

Liu Fugui has an average face; he doesn't have any distinctive features.

Firecrackers went off in unison outside, accompanied by the deafening sound of gongs and drums.

Yinggu watched all this, her eyes reddening. She walked up to Liu Fugui and choked out:

"Brother Fugui, didn't you say you'd be good to me for the rest of your life?"

Are you really going to abandon me now? What am I supposed to do then?

"Could you really bear to let me marry a cripple?"

Liu Fugui quickly took a step back:

"You're my wife's sister now, it's inappropriate for you to talk like that. You've got everything based on lies, what's the point?"

Besides, we've never had any physical intimacy, so how can you talk about abandoning me?

Zhou Wanwan sneered, "Take her away, she's in the way."

Zhou Wanwan had a bridal sedan chair brought in and said:

"Alright, let's go! Remember, Xiugu is a proper wife who was married into Liu Family Village."

Anyone who dares to bully her is going against everyone in Liu Family Village.

The bridal sedan chair circled Jujube Grove Village once, and just as it was about to head back, it saw the cousin leading dozens of yamen runners rushing over, saying:

"They're right here, from Black Wind Stronghold, they're a bunch of bandits."

They've come to Jujube Grove Hamlet to kidnap a girl! Arrest them right now!

The dozens of constables were dumbfounded when they saw the bridal sedan chair. Zhou Wanwan, sitting on the Old Scholar Tree with her head down, said, "Hey! Big cousin, did you bring people to arrest us?"

The cousin sneered, "That's right, I'm here to arrest you. Your Black Wind Stronghold has committed countless evils, and today I will act on behalf of Heaven to rid the people of this scourge."

Zhou Wanwan blinked and looked at the constables, saying, "You're here to arrest me too?"

The constables exchanged glances, and several of them immediately knelt down, saying, "We wouldn't dare, we wouldn't dare! This scoundrel didn't explain himself clearly. If we had known you were from Black Wind Stronghold, we would have taken a detour."

Several oblivious yamen runners shouted loudly:

"Are you guys crazy? You're all scared of a little girl. What's wrong with Black Wind Stronghold? I'm looking for Black Wind Stronghold."

I don't know who this girl is from Black Wind Stronghold, but we must capture her today.

Zhou Wanwan looked at them sincerely and said, "I am the leader of Black Wind Stronghold. If you capture me, you will have done a great service."

The constables laughed so hard they couldn't stand up straight, "Hahahaha... This little girl is too funny! She says she's the leader of Black Wind Stronghold, do you believe her?"

"Little girl, do you usually drink milk?"

Zhou Wanwan nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I do drink milk. There are sheep raised on the mountain, and I often drink goat milk."

The constables were laughing so hard they couldn't stand up straight, "Quick, grab her! Don't let her get away! She's probably the daughter of the Black Wind Stronghold's leader; she's worth a fortune."

"Yes, with our numbers seventy or eighty, how could we not catch a little girl?"

But the old yamen runner suddenly spoke up:

"You'd better believe her; I don't want that credit."

Young lady, could you please take my men and retreat first?

I promise I won't be your enemy. I... I'm best friends with Gu Chaoyang.

Gu Chaoyang is Gu Sinian's father. Zhou Wanwan said with a smile, "Then you can take your people and leave!"

The old man moved quickly, standing up abruptly and saying, "Let's go. We can't control the others, but my men have to come with me."
