The Husband I Snatched Is Not Right!-Chapter 84: Then Did You Miss Me?

Wei Zhao’s eyes flashed with a hint of amusement that even he didn’t notice, and he turned to look at the cow cart.

The old cow, indeed, was quite skinny.

He didn’t see the raven, probably up in the mountains again.

Wei Zhao mumbled: "Did the Village Chief authorize it?"

Yu Tingwan nodded vigorously.

Wei Zhao: "Shouldn’t be, right?"

After all, in this remote village, the Village Chief has a narrow vision and acts cautiously. Although he values profit, he’s not bad and always puts Xilin Village first.

If he had authorized lending them the horse cart, Wei Zhao would believe it.

But to say he directly gave it away...

That doesn’t sound like something the Village Chief would do.

Wei Zhao raised an eyebrow and asked, "How did you manage to get it?"

Yu Tingwan pressed her lips together, not quite wanting to explain.

She turned her face away.

Wei Zhao: "Got it?"

Yu Tingwan: "What do you understand?"

Wei Zhao: "He probably couldn’t stop you."

Yu Tingwan: ...

She sheepishly lowered her head, looking at her fidgeting hands.

Yes!

Couldn’t stop me!

The Village Chief values Xilin Village’s reputation the most.

When such a scandal arises, it must be severely punished! To serve as a warning!

It absolutely cannot be taken lightly.

Just when he was thinking Yu Tingwan made a compelling point, he saw the girl heading out the door...

"You?"

The Village Chief frowned: "Where did you get the cow from?"

Yu Tingwan innocently: "The Zhou Family lent it."

Village Chief: ???

"Who told you to take it?"

Yu Tingwan: "I asked for it."

The Village Chief tried to reason with her: "That doesn’t belong to you..."

Yu Tingwan: "I took it."

Yu Tingwan glanced at the sky, speaking warmly: "Alright, there’s no need to send it off, I’m taking it home for dinner."

Yu Tingwan was indeed eager to get home.

She felt a special connection to this cow.

But would the Village Chief let her take it away? He chased after her immediately.

Yu Tingwan thought of something.

"By the way, I came here today to bring persimmons to Granny Fan."

The Village Chief looked over: "How thoughtful."

But he saw the girl’s hands were empty.

Yu Tingwan felt a little embarrassed.

"I ate them all."

After all, catching someone in the act was too captivating, and there were no melon seeds left in her pocket.

Yu Tingwan assured: "I’ll make up for it tomorrow."

Village Chief: ???

He’s never seen someone like this.

However, he didn’t mind.

The Village Chief tried to calm his anger kindled by the Zhou family’s argument, speaking rather politely to the young lady.

"If you found money outside, I wouldn’t say anything, but this cow cart belongs to someone else. Taking it without asking is theft."

Yu Tingwan nodded seriously: "Hmm. That’s right."

"Then return it."

Under the Village Chief’s gaze, Yu Tingwan shook her head.

She understood the reasoning, but she wouldn’t listen.

She looked innocent and cute, blinking her doe eyes. Even the most hard-hearted person couldn’t say a harsh word.

She slowly lifted her eyes.

The girl held the rope, clearly not intending to let go.

"According to Da Jin’s law, proven adultery can be dealt with personally, no need to report to the Government Office."

"I heard of an affair in the north, between a sister-in-law and her brother-in-law, which was handled by their clan leader."

Yu Tingwan spoke calmly: "That clan leader was fair and stern, utterly intolerant of such behavior."

"He ordered the woman’s tendons severed, placed in a pig cage filled with stones, and drowned. The adulterer was beaten to death with sticks. The clan leader feared the punishment was too light and worried others might take chances, so he ordered every man in the clan to beat him ten times until he was a pulp."

"I think the Zhou family’s case is more egregious than that of the sister-in-law and brother-in-law."

"Wish all the best to persuade others not to conceal their wrongdoings, remember, the gods are watching over us. Once greed and lust emerge, there’s no knowing shame. If such behavior isn’t harshly punished, it will become a major problem."

"If left unchecked and allowed to grow, it will become rampant and endless."

"The punishment should be more severe than theirs. It should serve as a warning to others, punishing harshly in front of the entire village!"

Yu Tingwan: "Reaching this point is their own doing. My issues, Lady Xiao’s issues, aren’t yet settled with them, I’ve already been quite reasonable."

"Being schemed by such people isn’t our fault, nor is Lady Xiao at fault for dying."

Yu Tingwan: "The Government Office isn’t handling it because the County Magistrate is inactive. It doesn’t mean the matter ended, or that the Wei Family isn’t concerned."

"I’m making this clear today, that the He Family will suffer sooner or later, just wait and see if you don’t believe."

At this point, she paused slightly.

She didn’t care about the looks on people’s faces.

The girl spoke gently: "Since the two of them are destined to meet their end, the cow cart is ownerless, who am I hindering by taking it?"

Yu Tingwan glanced around.

"Or does anyone have any objections?"

Yes, they did.

Who wouldn’t want a cow cart?

But when they thought of the Wei Family’s plight, the Zhou Family’s disgrace, and what Yu Tingwan said earlier.

The girl apparently felt turning Old Man Zhou into mincemeat was still a light punishment.

Saying the harshest things in the gentlest tone.

"No, no."

"Take it away. Later, bring Lang to town. If you don’t know how to drive the cow cart, I’ll have my Third Lang send you."

"It’s getting dark, Wan Niang, take care on the road."

Granny Fan widened her eyes, unconvinced!

Why should Yu Tingwan have the cow cart all to herself!

She was about to curse when Yu Tingwan’s deep eyes stopped her, and she cooled down immediately.

Indeed, Wang Cuihua was right, this little vixen is truly eerie!

Her face still hurt, swollen!

The Village Chief was speechless. Since no one else had objections, he wouldn’t cling to the matter.

Previously stopping Yu Tingwan was because he feared the villagers gossiping that he favored the Wei Family.

He closed his eyes, internally lamenting the lost potential. If the girl married Yaozu, surely...

"Let’s go."

Yu Tingwan’s eyes sparkled brightly.

She sincerely told everyone: "You’re all really nice."

At present, with the faint light, the girl’s movements were lively.

Wei Zhao just knew he guessed right.

Of course, it wasn’t surprising.

As he lowered his eyes, Yu Tingwan strode over.

The girl placed her hand on the windowsill, her face stern, very serious.

"Did you behave while I wasn’t home?"

Wei Zhao: ...

Are you questioning a mischievous child?

He didn’t bother to reply.

Yu Tingwan: "You finished the medicine, right?"

Wei Zhao scooted to the side, letting Yu Tingwan see the empty medicine bowl on the table inside.

The girl was quite satisfied with this.

While others relished the novelty of a new marriage, she had been away all day.

Yu Tingwan pondered.

She tilted her head and asked: "Did you miss me?"

Wei Zhao’s lips moved slightly, his tone indifferent: "No."

Yu Tingwan: "Alright."

Her reply took Wei Zhao by surprise.

The girl was unexpectedly easy to placate.

Just as he formed that thought.

Yu Tingwan: "But I missed you."

Actually, she hadn’t.

She had been happy all day.

But she wanted to cultivate marital affection.

Wei Zhao looked at her expression.

The girl said these words without any emotional change.

Not at all like an ordinary wife speaking sweetly.

A liar.

The liar blinked confidently: "So, you should reflect on this."
