Farmer's Wife Has Magic Skills

Chu Qingning cupped her face, her elegant face filled with excitement. “Second Sister, if only there was a man who could confess his feelings to me in public like this one day.”

Chu Qingyue turned around and smiled gently at Chu Qingning. “There will be a man like that.”

Chu Qingning nodded in anticipation. “I’ll wait for him.” She suddenly thought of Chu Qingyue’s previous relationship and hurriedly said, “Second Sister, you’ll meet a good man too.”

Chu Qingyue pursed her lips and smiled. “I hope so.”

Xu Guannan, who was standing beside a stone block, stared at the couple in the middle of the river. His eyes flashed. It seemed that he was late, and the talented girl was already taken!

On a branch of a big tree sat Tong Yujie, who was holding a sword in front of his chest. He was also looking at the center of the river.

He had traveled extensively for so many years and could tell that the girl was not ordinary. He did not expect her to be taken so quickly.

The best part of the Dragon Boat Festival had ended. It was time for him to leave.

He turned around and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, he stopped and looked in a direction…

A thief was pickpocketing a girl’s purse and was about to get it.

Tong Yujie picked up a stone and threw it at the thief’s hand. At the same time, he shouted, “Stop!”

“All—”

The thief screamed in pain and quickly retracted his hand. He pushed Chu Qingning away and was about to run.

Chu Qingning did not notice that someone had put his hand into her purse. She was pushed by the thief and almost tripped over.

Just as she was about to fall, she felt a hand grabbing her arm and helping her up.

After Chu Qingning stabilized herself, she opened one of her closed eyes and saw a broad chest. She quickly opened the other eye and looked up. Then, she saw a gentle face.

Chu Qingyue hurriedly pulled Chu Qingning over. “Qingning, are you alright?”

Chu Qingning came back to her senses. “Second Sister, I’m fine.”

Chu Qingyue tidied Chu Qingning’s clothes and thanked Tong Yujie. “Thank you for saving my sister, Young Master.”

Chu Qingning quickly thanked him. “Thank you, Young Master.”

Tong Yujie looked around, but there was no sign of the thief. He retracted his gaze and looked at the two ladies in front of him. “It’s fine. It’s nothing.”

He pointed at Chu Qingning’s little purse. “There was a thief who wanted to steal your money just now. Be careful next time.”

Chu Qingning hurriedly lowered her head to check the purse. The strap on it had already been undone. As long as one reached in, they could touch the silver.

Fortunately, the silver was intact. If it was stolen, she would definitely break down and cry.

She thanked him again. “Young Master, thank you so much. Otherwise, my silver would have been stolen.”

Tong Yujie held a sword in one hand and said uprightly, “Miss, you’re welcome.”

“Young Master, can I ask for your name?” Chu Qingning sized Tong Yujie up. He was handsome and wore a dark blue robe. He had the aura of a ranger. He was really good-looking.

Tong Yujie said, “Tong Yujie.”

Chu Qingning felt secretly delighted. The person in front of her was her cup of tea. “There’s a wonton stall nearby. Young Master, are you hungry? Can I treat you to wontons?”

Tong Yujie was a straightforward person. He replied truthfully, “Sure, take the lead.”

Chu Qingning pulled Chu Qingyue towards Tong Yujie. “This is my second sister, Chu Qingyue. My name is Chu Qingning. You can call me Qingning.”

Tong Yujie smiled and said, “Miss Qingyue, Miss Qingning, nice to meet you.”

Chu Qingyue looked at Chu Qingning. There seemed to be something wrong with her fourth sister. She then looked at Tong Yujie. Was something going to happen between the two of them?

“Ruyue, do you want to go anywhere? I’ll bring you there.” Chu Xuhua thought things through. He didn’t dare to express his feelings now, but it didn’t stop him from being good to Shen Ruyue.

Shen Ruyue’s willowy eyebrows curved slightly. “1 want to play pitch-pot.”

When she was a servant girl, she had to look at the time when she came out to play. If she did not go back on time, not only would her salary be deducted, but she would also be punished. Now that she was free, she wanted to indulge herself.

“Okay.” Chu Xuhua looked around. “The pitch-pot stall is on the left. Let’s go to the left.”

“Ok.”

“Chu First!” Fan Jiayao’s happy voice came from the right.

Chu Xuhua and Shen Ruyue stopped and turned to look at Fan Jiayao.

When Fan Jiayao saw Shen Ruyue, her eyes instantly became filled with jealousy. In the depths of her jealousy was a sense of inferiority that was about to materialize.

Shen Ruyue was dressed in a light yellow dress. She was beautiful and confident. On the other hand, she dressed dully and had dark skin. She paled in comparison and there was a huge gap between them.

“Chu First, are you really together with this woman?”

Shen Ruyue chuckled and held Chu Xuhua’s arm. She looked at Fan Jiayao as if she was looking at a clown. “Brother Xuhua, let’s go.”

Fan Jiayao reached out to stop the two of them. “You can’t leave.” She grabbed Chu Xuhua’s arm. “Let me ask you, is your family doing business now?”

Chu Xuhua shook off her hand and looked at Fan Jiayao coldly. “Whether it is or not has nothing to do with you.”

Fan Jiayao regretted her choice to break up with him back then and said anxiously, “Chu First, you still like me, right? I’ll go get a divorce and be with you, okay?”

Chu Xuhua’s eyes widened slightly. He was obviously surprised by Fan Jiayao’s words. “Fan Jiayao, do you know what you’re talking about?”

Tears welled up in Fan Jiayao’s eyes. “I know, Chu First. Actually, 1 like you too. As long as you nod, 1’11 be with you immediately.”

Chu Xuhua felt that Fan Jiayao was like a lunatic. “I don’t want you anymore. Leave.” With that, he left with Shen Ruyue.

Fan Jiayao’s eyes turned red with jealousy when she saw Chu Xuhua protecting Shen Ruyue. She glared at Shen Ruyue’s back. “Without Shen Ruyue, Chu First would definitely be with me.”

She looked around. On Shen Ruyue’s left was the river…

A cold glint flashed across her eyes as she pushed Shen Ruyue with all her might.

Chu Xuhua felt a gust of cold wind behind him and subconsciously shielded Shen Ruyue in front of him. Then, he was pushed and hit the railing.

The railing was made of stone. One could imagine how painful it was to hit it. Chu Xuhua was in so much pain that cold sweat instantly drenched his clothes.

Shen Ruyue quickly walked to the railing. “Xuhua, are you injured?”

Chu Xuhua held his breath and broke out in a cold sweat. “I don’t know…”

At this moment, more and more people gathered. “Blood, so much blood…”

Shen Ruyue turned around. Fan Jiayao pushed too hard and tripped over, falling off the steps. Now that she was lying on the ground, blood was flowing out from under her legs. It was a shocking sight.

Fan Jiayao was pregnant, but she would probably have a miscarriage due to the fall..
