Zhou Lian'er ran to the backyard desperately, and saw Xiao Jingchen carrying her on her back, standing on the edge of the vegetable patch with one hand behind her back.

Thinking of her thoughts and sufferings these days, Zhou Lian'er held the courage to break the cauldron and rushed over.

Seeing that she was about to approach Xiao Jingchen, suddenly a flower appeared in front of her eyes, and a knife shining with cold light was horizontal in front of her eyes.

Ding Rui warned expressionlessly: "Whoever is coming, stand back, otherwise you will be killed!" ”

Zhou Lian'er was so frightened that her face turned pale, and her legs were weak.

But looking at her sweetheart who was close at hand, Zhou Lian'er still mustered up her courage and shouted at the back: "Xiao Ye, my name is Zhou Lian'er, and I am Ah Ruan's good sister, that night, Ah Ruan's yard caught fire, and you took her to my house." I was the one who helped her change her clothes. Xiao Ye, do you still have an impression? ”

Xiao Jingchen didn't even look back, as if he hadn't heard her words.

Seeing that he didn't react, Zhou Lian'er couldn't help but be more anxious, and raised her voice and said, "Xiao Ye, can you look back at me?" I...... I love you! ”

When Lin Ruan chased after him, he happened to hear the latter sentence, and he didn't know how to describe Zhou Lian'er.

Just based on Xiao Jingchen's attitude of not even looking back, it already explained everything, and she even said it hard. It's also a shame that there are no people from Lin Family Village in her courtyard, otherwise how will the Zhou family gain a foothold in the village in the future!

Before, Lin Ruan thought that Zhou Lian'er was a sensible girl, but in Xiao Jingchen's matter, Lin Ruan's impression of Zhou Lian'er changed sharply.

She didn't think that Zhou Lian'er was wrong to fall in love with Xiao Jingchen, which was why she was willing to help Zhou Lian'er inquire in the first place.

But she couldn't accept Zhou Lian'er's attitude of ignoring her family for her own wishful thinking.

If Zhou Lian'er's behavior today spreads, the blow to the Zhou family is definitely not a joke. And not only their family, but also the entire Zhou family in Linjia Village will be implicated.

Because, her surname is Zhou! Her words and deeds may not represent the entire Zhou family, but they can seriously affect the reputation of the entire family!

When the time comes, all the girls of the Zhou family will be looked down upon, and the most direct impact will be marriage.

In ancient times, women's status was already low, their reputation was damaged, and even if they married low in the future, they would never get the respect of their in-laws.

This is the principle of both prosperity and loss.

And Zhou Lian'er, as a native and a pure ancient person who received education in family concepts since childhood, how could she not understand this truth!

But she did it selfishly.

Lin Ruan admits that he is not the Holy Mother, but he still has a basic sense of collective honor and responsibility, and he will never do such a thing that harms others and himself, not to mention, those who want to be damaged are his own blood relatives!

Therefore, she is now very disdainful of Zhou Lian'er's behavior!

didn't want Zhou Lian'er to continue to be embarrassed here, Lin Ruan stepped forward and wanted to drag her away, but Xiao Jingchen just turned his head and glanced at Zhou Lian'er coldly, and then, slowly opened his lips and spit out four words: "I don't know shame." ”

Zhou Lian'er originally saw him turn around, thinking that his deep affection had touched him, and he was about to be excited and happy, but what he saw was such an emotionless and warm expression, and what she heard was the four words that hit her heart.

Suddenly, Zhou Lian'er couldn't stand the blow, the blood quickly faded from her face, and her body, which was becoming more and more thin because of lovesickness, was shaky.

However, she was still unwilling!

She had been thinking about him for so long, she couldn't let it go, even if his face was stepped on by him in the mud, she didn't care.

So, Zhou Lian'er made a bold move.

She mustered up the courage of her life, pushed Ding Rui away, and pounced on Xiao Jingchen, saying as she pounced: "Xiao Ye, I like you, I really like you." ”

Xiao Jingchen's skills, how can a peasant girl be approached.

Therefore, as soon as she crossed Ding Rui, Xiao Jingchen's figure moved, and even Lin Ruan didn't see clearly how he made a move, and Zhou Lian'er's neck was pinched by him.

Xiao Jingchen smiled coldly, with a mocking look on his face: "A woman who wants to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, this king has seen a lot, and you are also worthy of Xiao Xiang's king?" ”

Zhou Lian'er was pinched by the big steel-like palm, she felt that her neck was about to be broken, and she couldn't breathe air, and a huge fear enveloped her whole body, desperately trying to struggle, but she couldn't break free of that big hand.

Lin Ruan was really afraid that Xiao Jingchen would pinch Zhou Lian'er to death, with his identity, strangling a little peasant girl to death was as easy as pinching an ant to death, and he didn't have to bear any responsibility.

Although she felt that Zhou Lian'er was selfish and couldn't figure it out, she also knew that Zhou Lian'er was not guilty to death, so she hurriedly stepped forward to stop her and said, "Xiao Ye, please spare her life for the sake of my face." She just admires you, and she has no malice, please raise your noble hand. ”

Xiao Jingchen glanced at her: "Only this once." ”

Lin Ruan hurriedly blessed himself: "Xie Xiaoye is merciful." ”

Xiao Jingchen let go of his hand and threw Zhou Lian'er, who was close to being unconscious, to the ground, then quickly took out a handkerchief from his arms, wiped his hands carefully, and threw the high-quality handkerchief at Zhou Lian'er's feet in disgust.

Zhou Lian'er lay on the ground weakly and coughed desperately, and Lin Ruan bent down to help her up.

At this moment, Aunt Zhou had been invited by Tao Pozi, and when she saw Zhou Lian'er's terrible face and the bruises on her neck, she was so frightened that her soul was almost gone.

Lin Ruan hurriedly glanced at Aunt Zhou, stuffed Zhou Lian'er to her, and asked her to take Zhou Lian'er away quickly.

Even though Aunt Zhou had all kinds of questions and distress in her heart, she didn't ask more. She knew that Xiao Jingchen's status was noble, and there was no place for her to speak here. And Lin Ruan is here, and he will definitely explain to her later, so without saying a word, he and Tao Pozi put down the paralyzed Zhou Lian'er.

Lin Ruan hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry Xiao Ye, my neighbor's sister has behaved a little disqualified, which has disturbed you, and I ask Xiao Ye not to take it to heart." ”

Xiao Jingchen didn't want to mention this matter again, and said with a dark face: "I will truthfully report this sweet potato matter to the imperial court, you can wait with peace of mind." I still have something to do, so I'll go first. ”

Lin Ruan hurriedly said: "Xiao Ye stays, the folk girl still has something to discuss with you." ”

Xiao Jingchen glanced back at her: "The matter of withdrawing shares and dispersing the gang?" ”

Lin Ruan nodded his head: "I don't know how the shares got to Xiao Ye, but can you please ......?"

"I can't." didn't have the opportunity for Lin Ruan to finish speaking, Xiao Jingchen refused, "Business is very good, I'm very optimistic, besides, don't you think my thighs are thick enough?" Manage it well, if there is anything in the future, report my name directly, your business is to do it all over the Great Zhou Dynasty, and no one dares to make it difficult for you to give you half a point. ”
