His Peasant Wife: Yao Ling [Part 2]

Chapter 239 - 240

🔘Chapter 239: She Had Become His Sole Happiness

They knew their times were limited because Uncle Qiu kept knocking on the door when there was no answer from the inside.

Aunt Yue tried to pacify him by saying, "Wait for a little while, Little Qiu! I'm almost done..." After that, Uncle Qiu ceased his knocking.

Aunt Yue quickly said to Xiao Fang, "Make a decision soon! I will be waiting here!" Aunt Yue knew that this young woman would be smart enough to choose the correct decision. "For the hidden guards, I can help you tame them for three shichen at most!"

Aunt Yue had paid attention to the hidden guards' movement and pattern because she was too idle in her courtyard.

Who knew that it would help her in the future? It would be easy for her to use a little something to make them fall asleep for a little while.

Xiao Fang nodded. "How... how can I let you know when we will bring my friend here?"

When Aunt Yue heard the word 'we', she knew that there would be a few more people came with Xiao Fang, however, she realized that there was no way Xiao Fang could bring a grown woman all alone here.

Aunt Yue answered, "Light up this thing at the chosen day around Xu Shi [modern timing: 7pm-9pm]! Then, you can directly come here through the side door at the beginning of Zhi Shi [modern timing: 11pm-1am]... I will take care of the hidden guards. Remember you need to do this as soon as possible! The longer she stays that way, the lesser her chance to wake up!"

When Xiao Fang heard the last part, she became worried.

Aunt Yue answered the door and she continued chatting with Uncle Qiu.

Uncle Qiu saw that nothing was wrong, so he sighed in relief.

At least, Aunt Yue didn't notice this little impostor's real identity.

Xiao Fang, who just heard that Yao Ling should be healed as soon as possible or else she would be forever in a coma, became really nervous.

She felt that both of these old people talked way too much and too long ah~!

She kept fidgeting in the corner because she wanted to go back to the trio as soon as possible.

Aunt Yue naturally understood her feelings and she really wanted to laugh at her cuteness, on the other hand, Uncle Qiu felt annoyed at the little girl's restless movement.

They decided to end their chat early.

Usually, Aunt Yue would feel sad when her little Qiu had to leave earlier than usual.

However, her mood was quite good this time which puzzling Uncle Qiu, but the latter didn't ponder over it.

He just wanted to bring Xiao Fang out of there.

The latter had made him feel embarrassed enough.

True to Xiao Fang's expectation, she got an earful from her godfather after they went out of the forbidden place.

Xiao Fang usually would coax him and pretend to be pitiful or throw a tantrum, however, she just stayed quietly on the side at this moment.

Uncle Qiu felt that something wasn't right with her, but he didn't ask anything.

He could only sigh and let Xiao Fang go.

He felt that he had had enough of her at the moment.

When he gave her a little bit of a scolding, she just stood there obediently which made him feel that whatever he said... she wouldn't listen to it anyway.
