Quick Wear: Another day of being criticized for falling in love at first sight

Chapter 778: The Hunter Lady is the Savior of the Powerful Official 39

For a period of time after this, Miaomiao and Xiao Yunzhou still lived in Ping'an Town. There was no trace of the assassination they had experienced before, except for a golden leaf that proved the existence of the assassination against the third prince.

In the early morning, before the morning mist in Ping'an Town had dissipated, Miaomiao went to the rice shop carrying a bamboo basket. There were traces of sweat on her forehead, which was the sweat from the fight with Xiao Yunzhou, in which she pinned the other man under her knees and beat him up.

The teahouse on the street opened early, and before Miaomiao got close, she heard the sound of discussions in the teahouse.

"The Third Prince is building a canal downstream and distributing millet to the victims every day."

"That's right. This Third Prince was previously unknown. We had only heard of the Crown Prince's reputation..."

"Tsk, that's not a good thing either. It's said that the prince..."

Miaomiao took two steps closer and the conversation in the teahouse stopped abruptly. She also wanted to hear gossip, but these people were still talking halfway when she frowned.

She looked down at the silver bell hanging around her waist. It was a gift from Xiao Yunzhou last month. He said that if she walked away, he could still listen to the sound and scold her.

As a result, she didn't encounter Xiao Yunzhou looking for her by listening to the sound, but she encountered the situation where she was caught eavesdropping on gossip...

In the two years since moving to Ping'an Town, Miaomiao has grown visibly. Not only has her skin become whiter, but she is also half a head taller than before, making her look quite taller.

Of course, apart from her, Xiao Yunzhou has also changed a lot. Not only has he become more handsome, but he is also visibly taller and his body is much stronger than before.

Of course, since they practice martial arts almost every day, the chances of the training clothes they wear on weekdays getting damaged are greater. So Miaomiao came to the cloth shop again and asked the boss to make training clothes for her.

"He's taller now, and looks a lot bigger than last time.

This is the size, please help me, boss."

Miaomiao didn't know what mental issues Xiao Yunzhou had. He didn't like people getting up close to measure his clothes, even though he was already such a grown man...

So, Miaomiao helped to measure. She measured whatever the owner of the cloth shop needed. If Xiao Yunzhou's thank-you gift had not arrived quickly, Miaomiao would have been more willing to beat him out during the competition and help him correct his flaws.

The shopkeeper respectfully took the bill from Miaomiao's hand, collected the money from her, and then respectfully sent her away.

Only when Miaomiao's figure had disappeared did he breathe a sigh of relief and wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"If you're not the boss, why are you so respectful to this girl? This is not like you at all."

The new guy nearby didn't know what was going on and asked with a smile.

"What do you know? This is the God of Wealth in our town."

He was a hunter before. He would buy the cheapest clothes in his store. Occasionally he would buy something more expensive, but that was for his younger brother.

It has only been over two years, and not only has he already bought the deeds to many profitable shops in the town, there must be some unforgettable connections behind this.

"That Miss Ling doesn't look too old, yet she's so pretty and rich, so why doesn't she have...?"

The worker asked out of curiosity, but before he could even utter a word, the nervous shopkeeper covered his mouth with his hand and dragged him into the inner room.

"Do you think the people in this town are fools? Let alone other people's families, my second son is also very handsome and a scholar. How can I not be moved?

But the people in the town were all very impatient. It started because Miss Ling had spread the word that she had a fiancé, and everyone was too proud to propose marriage.

But two years have passed, and Miss Ling is like a budding flower, growing more and more beautiful. Not to mention the young men of marriageable age in town, even someone with my experience would be moved by her. Naturally, some people have started to set their sights on Miss Ling.

The shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead. He would never tell anyone about this unless they asked him. But this was his shop's job. He didn't want to get himself into trouble and bring trouble to his shop.

"So, Miss Ling already has a new fiancé?"

The guy didn't understand why the shop owner was so excited. Isn't there a saying that goes, "What's the point?"

A beautiful lady is a gentleman's dream, but they haven't gotten married yet. Who knows whose cup will end up with her?

"No, do you remember there was a scholar named Chen Mo in our town? He was the one who was good-looking, popular with many girls, and lived in the town with his widowed mother.

Last winter, he must have had some thoughts, and he fainted on the way back from collecting rent, right in front of Miss Ling. There was nothing Miss Ling could do, so she asked someone to carry him to the clinic and left medical expenses for the doctor before leaving.

Who would have thought that after waking up, Chen Mo would insist on going to Miss Ling's house, saying that physical contact between men and women is not allowed and that he is willing to marry her...

In short, he just wants to hang around at the Ling family's door. His mother even sent a matchmaker to the Ling family that afternoon, determined to make this marriage happen."

The shopkeeper was so blinded by the hypocritical appearance of the pretty boy that he even wanted to find a date with the scholar for his daughter.

The guys are getting anxious just listening to this. If they only listen halfway, their happiness will be halved.

"Then Miss Ling said she would think about it. But that night, Chen Mo was taken away by the police with a bruised face and nose. They accused him of raping someone else's wife and daughter. Of course, they weren't referring to Miss Ling, but the daughter of the scholar named Chen Mo.

The next day, the government sentenced him to marry the gentleman's daughter and stripped him of his official title.

Later, I heard from my son-in-law who worked in the county government office that it was true that Chen Mo had been having an affair with his teacher's daughter a long time ago, and that she was pregnant.

But Chen Mo couldn't afford the bride price, so he told the teacher's daughter that he would first find a way to marry Miss Ling and get her money, and then when the time was right, he would marry the teacher's daughter as a concubine.

Now he lost more than he gained. A few days later, someone saw him leaving Ping'an Town with his wife, carrying a tattered bag on his back. Before leaving, he knelt and kowtowed at the door of Miss Ling's house.

The people in the town don't think much of this matter.

But later on, there were scattered people who either tried to scam people, rob people, or pursued people, but without exception, the results were miserable and no one succeeded.

But when someone asked them out of curiosity, they all kept silent. At most, they said that Miss Ling was not an ordinary person. Although her fiancé was not around, there were many people following her privately.

In short, you can mess with anyone in this town, but you can't mess with Miss Ling."
