"Why is Lizheng here?"
The aunt was still sitting on the ground. When she saw Lizheng, she subconsciously held on to the clothes beside her even tighter. "I just came to my nephew's house to take a look."
Lizheng still had some prestige in Willow Village.
Especially since she knew that Lizheng and Zhao Zhan were related to Guan Zhao.
Back then, Zhao Zhan's father and Lizheng were the only two people in the village who went to the town to study. The two of them were classmates. Later, Lizheng failed three times in the exam to be a student and returned to Willow Village to help his family.
It was also because of this that when Zhao Zhan had been placed in her care, Lizheng would go over to take a look from time to time so that she did not dare to go too far with Zhao Zhan.
"When did you become so kind? I see Zhao Zhan had bought many things."
Yang Lizheng looked at the things on the ground sarcastically. Then, he turned to Jian Ji who had long curled up into a ball and wanted to be invisible.
"You coward, a grown man like you that only knows how to follow your wife to your nephew's house all day to seek money should just be trash. If this gets out, you'll be shunned by the people of Willow Village!
"Hurry up and return the things to them, hurry up and leave!
"If I catch you again in the future, I'll expel you from Willow Village!"
Zhao Kuazi's face turned pale.
Being expelled from the village at this time was enough to prove that this person had committed a very serious crime.
"Lizheng... You don't know what you're saying…" Zhao Kuazi looked at Lizheng and rubbed his hands, trying to please him.
"I didn't want to take his things. I just noticed that his courtyard was small, so I wanted to take these things back for him to wash and dry. The wife Zhao Zhan brought back can't do anything. She's just lazy and a cripple."
"Wife?" It was only then that Lizheng noticed Yue Jiaojiao, who was lying on Zhao Zhan's back. "Zhao Zhan, when did you get married? Why didn't you tell me? Which village is your wife from?"
Zhao Zhan's arm, which was holding onto Yue Jiaojiao, subconsciously tightened. "I saved her from the town. She was so scared that she couldn't remember anything, so I thought of letting her stay here for a while. She's a girl. If she ran out rashly and met with danger, I wouldn't feel good."
Zhao Zhan's words were half truth and half lie.
He had never lied in the past, but now he made an exception because of this sweetheart. His eyes drifted away for a moment as he was lying before he spoke again. "Don't talk nonsense. She's not my-"
"I'm his wife."
Yue Jiaojiao interrupted Zhao Zhan's words.
Zhao Zhan's hands were very steady, and Yue Jiaojiao didn't need to exert any strength to hold his neck loosely. She laid comfortably on Zhao Zhan's shoulder as she spoke.
"A life-saving grace should be repaid with one's body, so I'm naturally his wife." Yue Jiaojiao's expression was coy. "Lizheng, if we get married, won't our household registration be the same?"
Lizheng didn't have a daughter, and his daughters-in-law were as fierce as a tigress.
It was rare to see such a pretty little gentle girl. In addition, she also knew how to be grateful for being Zhao Zhan's wife and solving a problem for him. Lizheng was very satisfied when he saw Yue Jiaojiao, and he answered her questions without hesitation.
"Of course. I'll settle the registration for you when I get back today. Zhao Zhan will bring you there. I'll show you around Willow Village. You'll be one of us in the future."
"But Lizheng, I just heard this aunt say that she must keep his household registration in her hands so that the two of us can be at her mercy. We're not really separated anyway, and as an elder, she has the right to dictate our lives."
