Chapter 266 Zhao Yuanyuan's Plot
Chapter 266 Zhao Yuanyuan's Plot
Xiao Yunyi pulled He Xiliang directly to the river.
He also cleverly avoided the positions of Zhao Yuanyuan and Lin Wenyue and walked past the big rock on the side.
The big rock is a bit far away, but you can still see it clearly and hear some faint sounds.
Sure enough, as soon as he showed his head, He Xiliang saw Zhao Yuanyuan in the distance. He was delighted and was about to call her, but he saw Yuanyuan stagger and was about to fall on the young man!
Xiao Yunyi's mouth twitched. He had seen it many times, and this trick was used every time.
Either he sprained his ankle or he tripped over something.
He Xiliang swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
Because this scene is so familiar!
The first time he and Yuanyuan met was also by the river. Yuanyuan slipped and fell on him.
He supported her and felt the faint fragrance coming from her body, especially seeing her pretty little face, like a cute little white rabbit.
Then she said thank you to him softly, her voice so gentle and beautiful that it seemed to touch his heart.
He Xiliang was stunned.
Lin Wenyue over there was even more stunned. This girl could sprain her ankle just by standing. The road below was quite flat and there were no stones or anything.
She subconsciously stretched out her hand to help, but when she was about to touch the girl, Lin Wenyue suddenly remembered that he was dressed as a man and she was Master Lin.
It is really inappropriate to support a girl in this way.
As a woman herself, she knows very well how important a woman's innocence is.
For example, it would be inappropriate for her to be standing here alone with her in men's clothing.
At this moment, Lin Wenyue suddenly withdrew her hand and even moved to the side.
Zhao Yuanyuan was just pretending. The moment he dodged, she retracted her feet in time. She just staggered a little but didn't really fall down.
But her eyes quickly turned red, and she said embarrassedly:
"Mr. Lin, I'm sorry, I......"
Lin Wenyue looked at Zhao Yuanyuan and thought that this girl might be mentally ill. She was meeting a strange man but was still hesitating here. What was she trying to do?
It’s time to go. For her own good, he should leave quickly.
Lin Wenyue still said politely:
"Be careful girl, bye."
Although Lin Wenyue was active and liked to dress up as a man, she was a daughter of a prefectural magistrate after all, and her upbringing prevented her from saying a bad word.
What's more, the prefect's backyard is clean, her father doesn't have a concubine, there is no intrigue, and naturally her mind is simpler.
She really couldn't see through some of the white lotus's tricks.
After saying that, he immediately turned around and left. Unexpectedly, he heard a "thump" sound behind him, and Zhao Yuanyuan actually knelt down.
"Master Lin, please save me!"
Zhao Yuanyuan's mind got hot. Master Lin just spoke so gently and kindly that she fell in love with him all of a sudden.
She knew that if she didn't seize this opportunity, she might never have another chance.
The workshop is almost completed and they will leave Daliushu Village soon.
Although my aunt and the others said they didn't want to leave, even if they didn't leave, they would probably never see Master Lin again.
In fact, after meeting Mr. Lin for the first time, she had different thoughts, which were completely different from her thoughts about other people.
She seemed to really like this Master Lin.
She would be willing to go back and be his concubine or maid.
As for He Xiliang, even if it weren't for the incident with Master Lin, she wouldn't want to marry him now.
After all, He Xiliang's mother was really difficult to deal with. Although she verbally agreed to let her marry in, she actually demanded that the family be separated after she married in.
She had also inquired about it. She found out that the He family was so wealthy thanks entirely to He Xiliang's father and two brothers, and that he himself was not a capable person.
If the family splits up, will she still help the man work on the farm?
It's just a pity that the man was seduced by her and couldn't bear to leave her. He would rather split up the family to marry her, but she didn't feel touched at all.
When Lin Wenyue heard this, she frowned slightly.
"what happened to you?"
Someone was kneeling in front of her, so it was no wonder she was soft-hearted, she was also curious.
Zhao Yuanyuan's tears came suddenly:
"Sir, I am an orphan, helpless and homeless. I came to Daliushu Village, and the owner was kind enough to take us in. But some men in the village took advantage of me because I was alone and wanted to force me to marry them. I refused, because I had no one to rely on, and I was really scared."
"Seeing that the master's workshop is about to be completed, Yuanyuan has nowhere to go. Young master is kind-hearted, so I beg you to take me in. I work hard, even if I have to be a maid, I will work hard and serve you."
Zhao Yuanyuan spoke earnestly, and her whole body was trembling, as if she was really frightened.
She didn't lie. He Erzhu from the village was eyeing her covetously every day, and she was almost raped by him several times.
She was so scared.
If she could follow Master Lin, even if she became a maid in the mansion, she would have a chance sooner or later.
Lin Wenyue: ...
I didn't expect that there are people willing to sell themselves to be maids.
Such a beautiful girl, wouldn’t it be nice for her to marry someone good?
Why do you have to be a slave?
As a woman, Lin Wenyue really wanted to talk to her.
In fact, she thought that Daliushu Village was a nice place. The people here were simple and kind. As long as the man was good, it would be nice to marry into the village.
"There can't be such a person in Daliushu Village, right? If you don't want to, can I force you to marry me? My family doesn't lack maids. Since you are hardworking, you can find a job wherever you go. Men and women should not touch each other, so get up quickly. What's the harm in being seen?"
"I'm leaving. You've got the wrong person."
Lin Wenyue didn't want to say anything too harsh, so she walked away without even looking at her again.
I hope this girl can understand that there are officials stationed in Daliushu Village, and she can't ask him for help no matter who she asks.
What's more, with the officials around, she didn't believe that any man in Daliushu Village would dare to force her to marry him.
"Sir..."
Zhao Yuanyuan let out a wail and burst into tears, as if there was really no way out.
"If you don't agree, I can only ask for death..."
After saying that, she was about to jump into the river.
Lin Wenyue turned around abruptly, and this time she finally realized something was wrong.
She had explained it so clearly, but the girl actually wanted to jump into the river. She was threatening him with death to force him to take her in.
She had never encountered anything like this before!
But why should she take her in?
There are so many poor people. If they all threaten her like this, what will she become!
She is not a Bodhisattva.
Lin Wenyue wanted to rush over to stop her. If a girl jumped into the river and died in front of him, he would not be able to explain himself.
At this moment, a figure suddenly jumped out, much faster than him, and directly grabbed Zhao Yuanyuan.
It’s He Xiliang.
Xiao Yunyi also followed anxiously, thinking that Uncle Liang was really hopeless, how could this woman dare to really jump.
