Interrupt his arm again? Just by remembering how Hu Feng took revenged on Bai Dazhu, their scalp went numb, which give them a hundred times warning not to dare touch even Hu Changlin’s finger.
Mrs. Liu stretched her neck and looked around the courtyard for a while. Then, she whispered to the old lady’s ear: “Niang, I don’t see Zhao Lan here. She must be in their cabin house. Why should we continue talking nonsense with Hu Changlin here? Let’s just go directly to look for Zhao Lan.”
Old Lady Bai nodded her head and turned to look at Hu Changlin: “Since she is not here, we will go back first. If she came back, I will bother you to tell her that, we are looking for her.”
In the end, the mother and daughter-in-law didn’t wait to hear Hu Changlin’s response. They just turned and left. They walked towards the direction of their house. Hu Changlin didn’t think too much and just went inside his house.
After circling around the village, Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu went directly to the cabin house where Zhao Lan lived.
The cabin house’s door was open. Clothes were hung outside to dry. Clothes that were a new trend in silk clothes.
To see such clothes in Huangtou Village was very rare. Only Mrs. Yingzhi, who was originally from the town usually wearing it. They haven’t seen anyone else aside from her.
Mrs. Liu’s eyes got nailed on those clothes as soon as she had seen it. When she went to the town with Bai Dazhu before. She saw all the young women were wearing those clothes. She was so envious. She only said to herself that once her son becomes a big official, she will also wear one. She will wear beautiful clothes and show them off in front of everyone in the village.
When Old Laday Bai saw the clothes, she frowned and said: “This cost a lot of money. What would a farmer woman do with this kind of clothes? Is she not afraid to be laughed at by everyone?”
The mother and daughter-in-law didn’t say another word, they went straight to the cabin house. But, who would have thought that, as soon as they get close in the house, a tub full of water will be poured in their head? The two people got drenched and they looked like drowned rats.
Zhao Lan, who was holding the wooden tub, looked at Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu with full of surprised: “Oh, why are you here? I’m sorry, I finished washing my face and wanted to pour the water outside.” Zhao Lan said with a smile on her face. And although she apologized with her mouth, there was no trace of apology in her eyes.
The cabin house was small, the soundproofing was very poor. How can she not hear the two people’s conversation outside?
So she poured a tub of dirty water to the head of those two.
Mrs. Liu wiped away the water on her face and stared straight at Zhao Lan’s arm: “Your hand is now good?” The wooden tub was not light, not to mention, it was full of water.
Zhao Lan put down the tub and rubbed her arm: “It’s still a little bit painful, but it doesn’t get in the way.”
Old Lady Bai took out a handkerchief on her sleeve and wiped her face. Her heart was full of anger. But, when she remembered her intention, she suppressed the anger in her heart. After all, once Zhao Lan came back in the Bai Family, she’ll get plenty of opportunities to teach her a lesson.
Old Lady Bai said to Zhao Lan: “We have come to talk to you.”
Zhao Lan went inside the house: “Come in first.”
Earlier, Hu Changlin came and talk to her. He said that Bai Zhi specifically wanted him to deliver a message. Bai Zhi said that the Bai Family might come and find her at their house when she was gone, so she shouldn’t make any promises with them.
Zhao Lan thought her daughter was only thinking too much. But now, it seems she was too simple-minded.
Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu immediately entered the cabin house. But as soon as they entered, they were both shocked by the scene inside. The cabin house was small but has everything. The most noticeable thing was the dressing table. On the dressing table, there was a small bronze mirror. Even the wooden comb on top of it has a delicate design.
