you're right! Perhaps the invaders are also bird-kin or beast-folk. If so, we would have a hard time tracking them."Then let's go up and tell Xiao."Let's go!"Two orcs quickly climbed up the vines and...Wen Daniu wasn't unaware of the commotion in the village. She simply wanted to avoid suspicion, so she didn't go out to see the excitement, nor did she allow her family members or her husband to go out. She even hoped that the rumors would ferment a bit more. When someone came to ask about it, she would pretend to have just learned about it. That time would be the best opportunity for her to appear on the scene.

She didn't expect that she would find Wen Xiaoxiao to do things, and this woman not only failed to do a good job but also got beaten. Wen's mother's face fell immediately, and she said coldly:

"What's going on Wasn't everything going smoothly before"

Today I was beaten up by the three Wun Yun sisters. They didn't give me a chance to speak and insisted that I go to their house to scout for stealing, and they beat me up badly.

When Wen Xiaoxiao spoke, she couldn't help but touch her already bluish lips.

"Did you not say anything"

Wen Daniu said displeasedly.

"I was halfway through speaking when someone shoved a big snowball into me, and Mingge wasn't even home! We made such a commotion, and he didn't even come out to take a look."

"Didn't you leave early How come you haven't blocked the people yet"

"I got here early enough, didn't it It wasn't stuck with people!"

Wen Xiaoxiao said with some hesitation.

Actually, she went drinking with men from other villages last night, that's why she woke up late.

"Alright, I understand! Go back first! We'll talk about this when Mingge gets back."

Auntie Wen waved her hand, like swatting a fly, ready to shoo Little Wen Xiaoxiao away.

"Auntie, that's not fair! I did everything you told me to do. I went out on an empty stomach and got beaten up by the three sisters Yun San. At least give me a proper meal! Are you saying I don't need to do anything else after this"

Wen Xiaoxiao's eyes narrowed, and she immediately became unhappy.

Wen Daniu knew this woman was a scoundrel, and she needed her help, so she gritted her teeth and pulled out a small handful of copper coins from her bosom and threw them at the other woman.

"Be frugal with your spending."

"Oh! Oh! I know."

"Mind your own business!"

Then Wen's mother urged her once more.

Wen Xiaoxiao had already tucked the copper coins into her pocket and slipped away, not looking like she was hurt at all.

"Spit!" said Wen Dalian, spitting on the ground before turning and going back into the house.

Since the incident where the younger brother sold his niece, their family's affairs became the talk of the entire village. Some gossipy individuals even came to ask him about it. He had no choice but to push the blame onto his younger brother who was no longer in the village.

The more Wen Daniu thought about it, the angrier she became. She felt that she had been tricked by her third brother. He had pulled her in, thinking that someone would take responsibility for the villagers' scorn after the incident happened. Now, he had gotten himself into trouble.

Luckily, they had already separated, and the younger sister was married off. Although this incident affected their family, the impact was not significant. Most of the blame was shouldered by Wen Santhe third brother.

But she was truly unwilling to accept this, especially the house and land. After all, as the eldest daughter of the main branch, these should have been hers. The fact that Yueyue, that dead girl, existed ruined everything. Furthermore, her younger brother had used the wrong method, leading to such terrible consequences.

So, Wen's mother thought about it for a while and came up with a rather troublesome method, but one that would ultimately achieve her goal.

Then she took the initiative to find Wen Xiaoxiao, that wretch, and asked her to hang around Ming Ge'er's house recently. If she could succeed, even better. When rumors spread throughout the village, she would then appear, using Ming Ge'er's reputation and Yue Yue's future as a reason to marry her off far away. She definitely wouldn't let Wen Xiaoxiao get away with it. This way, Ming Ge'er would still thank her, this big aunt of hers.

By then, she'll be able to legally raise Yueyue again, and the house and land will return to her. Everyone will praise her for her kindness and righteousness.

This way, the eldest daughter's wedding house is secured, she has ten acres of land to cultivate herself, and the family has enough labor. After paying taxes and grain, what's left belongs to them. Whether they eat it or sell it, it all brings in income. Who would dislike having more silver in their hands

Of course, the prerequisite for achieving these goals is that Ming'er's reputation is ruined, even losing her virginity. Therefore, she found Wen Xiaoxiao, a scoundrel in the village, but unexpectedly was blocked by Wen Yun's three sisters. However, she wasn't in a hurry. There were still two months until spring, enough time for her to operate.

If the ripples knew Old Lady Wen's thoughts, they would have to praise her for her vicious mind.

On the other side, as soon as Wen Zhao ming returned to the village, he was called home by Wen Wugong and smiled as he asked:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Fifth Uncle, just tell me what's on your mind."

“That Wen Xiaoxiao came again today, circling your front door and peeking into your house like a sly fox. I had my three daughters beat her up and told the onlookers that she was eyeing our place suspiciously and drove them away.”

Wen Wugong frowned and said.

Wen Zhaoming's face fell after hearing this, and he immediately said:

"Five elders, thank you so much. I've already thought of a way. She won't dare to do it again."

"Is this method reliable If not, just bring my cat Dong over to my place."

Wen Wugong said with some uncertainty.

"Reliable, if nothing unexpected happens, Wu Bo should receive the letter in the next two days."

Wen Zhaoming didn't say it explicitly, after all, he was just a young man, and it wouldn't be appropriate for him to speak about this.

"Alright, just keep that in mind. Don't ruin your reputation."

Wen Wugong was afraid that Ming Ge'er had too fiery a temper, so he didn't want to push things too far and give people a handle to gossip about.

"Don't worry, Wu Bo. I still have a younger sister to look after. Even for my sister, I have to take care of myself."

After a few more words, Wen Mei walked in and said to Wen Zhaoming:

"Ming'er, the village chief and Jiahong have arrived. They said they have something to discuss with you. You should go back and see them first."

"Okay, I'll go back now."

"You left Yueyue behind, your house was empty all morning, no fire pit, don't let Yueyue freeze."

Wu Bo said directly, since the village head is looking for someone, there must be important matters. Children should not interfere.

"Okay, please take care of Yueyue for me."

Wen Zhaoming left Yueyue at Wen Wugong's house. Although Yueyue was a little unwilling, she knew that the village head's aunt must have something important to discuss with her brother, so she waited here. It was better this way.

Wen Zhaoming quickly ran two steps, ushering the village chief and Jiarong into his house. After burning a brazier and pouring hot water, it took him another half hour.

When the village head and his eldest daughter entered, they had already seen the pile of things by the door. They didn't need to think to know who sent them. So after looking at each other, the village head directly said:

"Ming'er, Miss Su from Sujiazhuang came to see me today and brought up the matter of your marriage. What are your thoughts on this She said you're marrying into their family as a way of repaying a debt. What do you say"

"Auntie Village Chief, Ms. Su has already mentioned this to me. She should have told my elders at home, but as you know the situation in my family, I had her come directly to you."

Wen Zhaoming said a little embarrassedly.

"So, you're willing"ipples smiled at the direction the whirlwind had left in, and Fāngcǎo also saw the departing whirlwind. She immediately turned and walked towards the gazebo and said:"Madam, I will go and bring back t...
