The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 2042: Chapter 2042: Can’t (1)

Yang Ruxin sized up the other party, nodded slightly, "It’s nothing."

Ma Laiwang visibly let out a sigh of relief, because there had been news from the Governor’s Office earlier, saying that Yang Ruxin had already been conferred an official title by the Emperor, and even a county magistrate would have to kowtow to such a high-ranking official, so he was really afraid of angering the other party.

He knew about the Yang Family’s affairs. After all, they made quite the commotion more than once or twice. Previously, everyone said that Xun Hui’s family was the pitiable one, but who could have thought that in just two short years, the people of the Yang Family’s main branch had become out of reach for everyone.

It’s not that he had much affection for Yang Baihe, but there was no choice. With such a mother in the family, no matter how hard he worked, they remained dreadfully poor. Now everyone in the village basically had some spare cash, except for their family...

But she was his mother. His father had hit her and scolded her too, but it was of no use.

This year, he was already twenty-four. If he didn’t marry soon, the Ma Family would really face extinction.

So no matter what, he had to marry Yang Baihe, especially since the Yang Family now had a Scholar.

"What do you mean ’it’s nothing’? You don’t even acknowledge me as an aunt now!" Yang Baihe wouldn’t have it, lifting her hand to wipe her face with her sleeve. "How can you be so heartless?"

"Yang Baihe, you need to understand. The main branch of the Yang Family is now independent. My family and yours are two different Yangs." Yang Ruxin smiled, "You must understand that feelings are reciprocal. If you had been a bit kinder to us, things wouldn’t have come to this today. Instead of stirring trouble here, instead of just thinking about how to take advantage, why not go back and think about how to live a good life."

Yang Baihe wanted to say something, but Ma Laiwang pulled her back, "Baihe, let’s go."

"Let go of me." Yang Baihe shook off Ma Laiwang’s hand vigorously, "Why should you meddle in my affairs? I don’t even want to marry you." Then she turned and walked away.

Ma Laiwang’s face flushed red with embarrassment. He glanced at Yang Ruxin but didn’t know what to say. He could only force a smile and then turned to chase after Yang Baihe.

Yang Ruxin shrugged. Actually, Ma Laiwang seemed to be quite a reliable person. If Yang Baihe married him and was just a bit sensible, their future wouldn’t be too difficult. But the premise is that Yang Baihe shouldn’t cause any trouble.

Just as they were about to enter, Dao Xuzi ran out and pulled Yang Ruxin aside, "Xinxin, did that Nian Qianqian really go to Beijing?"

Yang Ruxin nodded, "She’s been living in the General Residence. She only left when we were about to return..."

Dao Xuzi suddenly sighed, his face full of hesitance.

"Master, can you tell me about what happened back then?" Yang Ruxin suddenly became curious.

"I can’t." Dao Xuzi looked at Yang Ruxin firmly and shook his head.

"Could it be that you liked Senior Nian back then, but Senior Nian liked Changyangzi, and Changyangzi, considering you his friend, wanted to match you two, so he avoided Senior Nian?"

Dao Xuzi frowned, looking at Yang Ruxin, then suddenly scoffed, "Your story is well-crafted. You could make some money in a teahouse..." Then he turned and walked away.

"If you don’t say anything, I can only guess..." Yang Ruxin quickly followed Dao Xuzi up the slope behind the courtyard. After rounding a bend, they saw a place surrounded by a fence taller than a person.
