Translator: 549690339

Unexpectedly, Shopkeeper Gu, who seemed fat, had quick skills. No matter how she dodged, she couldn’t escape from his grasp, and he pulled her into his arms.

“Little beauty, no woman I’ve set my eyes on has ever escaped my palm before. Come, let me give you a kiss…”

As he spoke, his fat head and big ears pressed down towards Little Cui’s pitiful and pretty face.

“No! Let me go! I’m already married and have turned a new leaf. Let go of me, let… let go of me!”

Little Cui struggled fiercely. The two engaged in fisticuffs, with lively back and forth exchanges. Every move she made was preempted by him, giving him complete control and the upper hand.

The violent struggles worsened her injuries, causing darkness to flash before her eyes and a trickle of fresh blood to fall from the corner of her mouth.

Such pitiful beauty only made Shopkeeper Gu’s eyes widen with desire, disregarding everything else, and directly pinning Little Cui down at the edge of the pavilion.

“Hehehe! Little beauty! I advise you to submit to me! Otherwise… I’m afraid you won’t have a sweet life. Hehe!”

“No! No! Let me go…”

As she resisted beneath him, unbearably, she pulled a silver hairpin from her head and fiercely stabbed it towards his heart…

However, his movements were even quicker. Before she could see what he did, her wrist throbbed with pain! Unable to hold back, she screamed in agony, and the silver hairpin fell to the ground.

Slap! Slap!

Two resounding slaps landed left and right on Little Cui’s face!

Immediately, her head throbbed from the blows.

Shopkeeper Gu cursed fiercely, “Just a whore who’s been ridden by thousands and crushed by tens of thousands! How dare you think of resisting? It’s an honor for me to take you. If you resist again, I won’t mind sending you to meet the Buddha. If you cooperate, I might even give you a taste of pleasure afterward. Hahaha…”

As he spoke, his hand reached for the collar of her clothes…

Little Cui’s eyes widened, and she let out a shrill cry: “No! …”

After the cold winter morning, although the snow had melted, there was still frost every morning, making people unwilling to leave the warmth of their quilts.

The sky had not yet brightened when Di Yelei went to the governmental office.

Before leaving, he had brought the well-prepared soup medicine and watched Liu Sisi drink it down, then reluctantly left.

As soon as he left, Liu Sisi went to sleep and didn’t wake up until her stomach growled, then got up.

Now that the days were cold, and because she had checked the accounts yesterday, Liu Sisi had nothing else to do, so she picked up the textbooks and continued teaching Di Xuan and YingEr.

Soon, Ah-Juan and Ah-Min also came by, so Liu Sisi took the opportunity to teach them all together.

After noon, when Liu Sisi was teaching Liu Zhi’er how to sprout beans and plant soilless vegetables, Guihua and Ms. Xin came over.

Seeing Liu Sisi teaching Liu Zhi’er, the two also gathered around.

“Sisi! Your vegetable planting skills are simply amazing! According to your planting method, if we specialize in planting for wealthy families, we could make a lot of silver, right?” Guihua couldn’t help but speak her mind today.

It must be said that Guihua has sharp eyes!

Liu Sisi smiled. In fact, how could she not have thought of Guihua’s proposal? But people, including her, have limited energy. She could make money in any field, but no matter which one, she had to devote her time and energy to succeed!

Liu Sisi admitted that planting her own vegetables was fine, but if she had to work in the fields all day, she would go crazy!

So, she had never taken this path before.

“I haven’t specialized in growing and selling vegetables before either. Nowadays, as I’m pregnant, I’m even less willing to do it. If any of you want to try it, feel free.”

Liu Sisi was quite generous: “Of course, if you have any questions, you can ask me anything, and I’ll be more than happy to help.”

If it could benefit everyone, it would be a good thing.

“If we really want to do this, we definitely won’t be polite with you.”

Guihua spoke and then laughed.

Ms. Xin, who was next to her, also laughed behind her hand: “Isn’t that right? Third sister-in-law knows so much and keeps us in stock of fresh vegetables even in the cold winter.”

Today, Ms. Xin’s complexion was not good, and her spirit seemed sluggish. While talking, she looked for a chair and sat down.

As she moved her body to one side, Guihua, who was standing beside her, immediately noticed the injury on her face, and pointed at it.

“Ms. Xin, your face… what happened?”

Ms. Xin hastily covered her face in panic: “No, nothing… really! Ah-Bao just got too excited and drunk yesterday. He didn’t do it on purpose, I swear!”

Her attempt to conceal the truth only made her look more suspicious, causing everyone’s imagination to run wild. Seeing her dodgy behavior, everyone could only sigh quietly.

Guihua couldn’t help patting her hand: “Hey, men will be men. When he drinks a few sips of alcohol, just tolerate him and don’t make a fuss. Once he sobers up, everything will be fine.”

Ms. Xin smiled bitterly, nodding lightly, and dabbed her eyes with the towel in her hand.

Liu Sisi neither agreed nor disagreed, but she thought something was off about Ms. Xin today. However, she couldn’t pinpoint the reason, and she felt sleepy again.

But she couldn’t say anything since they had guests at home.

Instead, it was Liu Zhi’er, who was sitting on the side busily making shoes for everyone, who noticed her drowsiness and quickly asked, “Sisi, are you sleepy? Do you want to lie down for a while?”

After taking the medicine Zhang Peng brought, Liu Zhi’er’s voice had significantly improved, and her pronunciation was much clearer.

“No need, I’ll just sit for a while longer! Sleeping all day isn’t good either.”

Liu Sisi said after thinking for a moment.

As they spoke, they suddenly heard Ah-Huang’s excited barking from outside. The intense barking pierced the sky, audible from far away.

Immediately, a crashing sound against the door came through.

“What’s going on? Is Ah-Huang hitting the door? Has he gone crazy?”

Several people stood up in surprise and looked towards the yard door, only to see Ah-Huang trying to break through the door like he was mad.

“Ah-Huang! Ah-Huang, what’s wrong with you? Why are you making such a fuss?”

YingEr’s scolding came from the hall. It turned out that the children who were studying had also come out of the house.

As everyone wondered what was happening, another familiar barking came from outside the yard door.

Liu Sisi gasped!

Next to her, Xuan’er and YingEr also shouted excitedly, “It’s Ah-Hua! That’s Ah-Hua’s bark, Ah-Hua is back!”
