Chapter 173 Bandits
Nanzhi is usually mild-tempered, but can easily get into trouble when it comes to emotions.
She realized that all she cared about was the three years when her former "self" was involved in Shen Wenchen.
She was afraid that Shen Wenchen's kindness to her would be mixed with guilt for her, so she would pay it back to herself twice as much.
She didn't want to be the substitute.
After holding it in until everyone had finished eating in the evening, Nanzhi asked Shen Wenchen to come aside to talk.
"Nannan, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing the confusion on his wife's face, Shen Wenchen raised his hand and rubbed her eyebrows.
"I have something to tell you." Feeling the warmth on her forehead, Nanzhi finally spoke.
"You say it and I listen."
Shen Wenchen lowered his head slightly, his peach blossom eyes filled with love, which made Nanzhi almost drown in him.
"I have a knot in my stomach."
"What pimple?"
After twisting her fingers, Nanzhi finally chose the most direct way to say it: "Since you have been there, I just said it directly, I am not from this world, that is my home, but here Lin Nanzhi is my soul, I, I can’t explain..."
The more he talked, the more confused he became. Nanzhi felt that he was stupid and couldn't even explain such things clearly.
"I know you are Lin Nanzhi, but you and my wife are the same person and the same soul, right?"
Shen Wenchen's eyes were deep and he stretched out his hand to hug her into his arms.
"Yes, that's it." Being hugged by the man, Nanzhi felt her heart beating fast, but there was a bit of envy in her mind.
He could understand even if he said it like this, he was worthy of being a villain.
"Then what's the knot in your heart?" Shen Wenchen felt the thin and small person in his arms, and his eyes were filled with distress.
"But the person who has lived with you for two years is not me. Even though the soul is the same, it was her who suffered. I am just a person who took advantage."
Shrinking in the man's arms, Nanzhi's voice became smaller and smaller, until finally she couldn't even hear her clearly.
Shen Wenchen didn't understand what she was thinking, so he just rubbed Nanzhi's head and said softly.
"Fool, you are the same person, don't think about it anymore."
Thinking of what the old man said, Shen Wenchen sighed slightly.
After the old man left, he looked for him again and said that everything was caused by cause and effect, which only made him finally see his sincerity clearly.
When he wanted to ask more questions, the old man took eight pieces of cake from him and left.
"Then, then don't touch my hair, it's dirty." Nanzhi's voice was muffled and a little embarrassed.
She hadn't washed her hair for a month, so she could guess how dirty it was now.
A woman wants to please her own appearance, and although now is not the time to dress up, she doesn't want to leave a bad impression on the person she likes.
"I'm dirty too."
Shen Wenchen's voice was smiling, and he deliberately pricked her forehead with the stubble on his chin, causing the tips of Nanzhi's ears to turn red.
"Dad, you're so embarrassed!"
Xiao Zhiyu took her grandmother's advice and called her parents back for dinner, only to see the two of them hugging each other.
He pointed at his father with one hand and scratched the side of his cheek with one hand.
"Brat."
Shen Wenchen smiled and cursed, and then let go of the person in his arms.
"Grandma asked me to come and tell you to eat. Dad and Mom are so embarrassed."
Xiao Zhiyu made a face, fearing that his father would catch him, so he ran very fast on his short legs.
"Let's go and eat."
"Um."
Although he never thought that this matter would be explained clearly in two or three sentences, Nanzhi felt a lot lighter now.
"Mom, what are you having for dinner tonight?" The two of them walked back to the mule cart side by side. As soon as they sat down, they saw the smiles on their faces, and they were startled.
Subconsciously he looked at his cheap son.
The little guy was hiding in Mother Lin's arms. When he saw his mother-in-law looking towards him, he immediately hugged Mother Lin tighter.
"Okay, okay, Wen Chen is about to sit down and eat." Mother Lin gently patted her grandson in her arms, smiled and waved to Shen Wenchen.
It would be good if the matter of the young couple is made clear, it would be good if it is made clear.
"good."
Shen Wenchen was in a good mood, nodded with a smile and sat next to Nanzhi.
After dinner, the little guy was put to sleep, and then the two of them sat next to each other by the fire to warm themselves up.
"Then we will be husband and wife from now on?"
Nanzhi poked the roasted sweet potatoes in the fire with a stick.
"Always."
"Okay."
Nanzhi pouted.
"When we get to Yancheng, let's hold another wedding." Shen Wenchen spoke sincerely, looking at Nanzhi with stars in his eyes.
"good……"
Before Nanzhi could finish saying hello, he heard a scream not far away.
The screams were piercing, alarming the surrounding refugees who were resting on the spot.
People who had just fallen asleep also woke up one after another, each groping for the weapons they had prepared before fleeing.
"The bandits are coming! Run!"
A stone stirred up a thousand waves. The refugees who heard this words picked up their things and started to run for their lives. The flow of people was like a stream of black water, passing through every gap, just to escape quickly.
Shen Wenchen subconsciously reached out to protect Nanzhi, but Nanzhi immediately ran towards the direction of the mule cart.
Seeing her get into the car, Shen Wenchen felt more at ease, and only a whistle blew to call Zhuiyue.
The two Lin brothers didn't even bother to put on their clothes and just headed towards the mule cart where the woman was.
Lin Yicheng got into Mother Lin's mule cart neatly, and did not forget to say a word of relief: "Mom, sit tight in the car, I will drive!"
Holding the trembling child in their arms, Chen Qiulan and Sun Cui just huddled in the carriage and did not dare to make any other moves.
Lin Chengcheng arrived at Nanzhi's car.
"Fat Ya, look at the good jade, the second brother is here."
"good."
They had discussed it a few days ago. If something happened, Shen Wenchen would lead the way, and the Lin family and his son would drive the car. If they accidentally got separated, they would meet up at Yancheng!
Compared with the cleanliness of the Lin family, the Shen family is more troublesome.
"I don't want any more things! Let's go quickly!" Aunt Guihua became anxious when her husband was trying to move things into the car, and she just shouted to him to get in the car quickly.
It’s better to lose something than to lose your life!
There were more and more refugees, and the official road a few meters wide was now full of people running for their lives. Some fell and were trampled by people behind them, making it impossible to get up.
Some are now trying to overwhelm the people around them to give themselves a chance to escape. The silent night is now full of crying and howling.
The three mules were frightened and began to move in the direction of the crowd through the mud.
Zhiyu was awakened by the crying outside, and now she huddled in Nanzhi's arms and remained silent.
"Zhiyu, be good, it's okay, it's okay." Nanzhi held Zhiyu tightly in his arms with one hand, and held the ax with the other, staring closely at the curtain behind the car.
As long as anyone dares to come, she will chop him alive with this ax!
