576 Threat
It has to be said that Mrs. Chu has been in a high position for many years after all. As soon as she said this, Wen Ruyan suddenly felt that the air around her was a little cold.

"Ma'am, it's not what you think!"

Wen Ruyan is not stupid, how can she not guess that she has misunderstood by looking at her expression?

Bully?

When did I bully Chu Yue? On the way back, she misunderstood her as a disciple and made her fight all the way. Who bullied whom?

How could the furious Mrs. Chu believe Wen Ruyan's words now, but she stared into his eyes and said in an extremely cold tone: "Do you think I'm scaring you? What's going on in Jingzhou now? I'm sure you've also seen that, in this case, the death of a person really doesn't attract anyone's attention, because it's already a common occurrence."

"Madam is threatening you?"

Wen Ruyan's status is so respected, he was threatened like this for no reason, it would be a ghost if he could calm down in his heart.

Mrs. Chu nodded and said, "It's a threat, but also a warning. I'm just a daughter like Chu Yue, so naturally I won't let her suffer any harm. If you follow the original agreement, I will give you a sum of money to make things happen. You leave, but if you covet my Chu family's property and dare to use such shameful tricks on Yue'er, I guarantee that you will not be allowed to walk out of Sanhe Town alive. It's nothing."

To be honest, if it weren't for Wen Ruyan's inability to reveal his identity and his concern about Chu Yue's feelings, he really wanted to slap this disgusting woman in front of him to death!
What does she mean by that?
Treat human life like nothing?

How dare the hostess of a gentry and wealthy family speak like this?

Wen Ruyan took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart, then looked at her and said calmly: "Miss Chu treats me well, so naturally I won't hurt her."

Mrs. Chu glanced at him, and said: "It's best, you are just a refugee who can't even afford to eat, if you don't have the identity that my Chu family gave you, you are no different from those outside, humble like The worms in the soil can be trampled to death casually, so you should put away those small thoughts in your heart, you are not worthy of Yue'er."

"Has Madam finished?" Wen Ruyan still looked at her calmly. "If you're done talking, then I'll go back to the accounting room first, and there are still some accounts that need to be settled."

Mrs. Chu had finished what she had to say, and when she heard what Wen Ruyan said, she looked at him and sneered, then turned and left.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still Mr. Feng in Jingzhou City, Mrs. Chu was afraid of provoking Wen Ruyan too hard and causing him to backlash, she really wanted to send a few people to break Wen Ruyan's leg.

And watching her leaving back, Wen Ruyan took a few deep breaths, which stabilized his mood.

What a vitriolic woman!

Waiting for this matter to come to an end, I might as well teach her a lesson.

When Wen Ruyan came to the backyard, she found that Chu Yue was already standing there waiting for him. Seeing him approaching, Chu Yue hurried up to meet him and asked, "Why did my mother suddenly call you? Did she say anything excessive?"

Wen Ruyan forced a smile and said, "It's nothing."

Seeing his expression, Chu Yue guessed that her mother must have said something excessive to him, otherwise it would be impossible for him to make such an expression.

Chu Yue quickly explained: "Don't think too much, my mother is that kind of person, her mouth is not forgiving, if she said something excessive, I apologize to you on her behalf, can you not be angry?"

Seeing Chu Yue's eager expression, the anger in Wen Ruyan's heart dissipated a little.

"It's okay, it's over."

night.

child time.

Chu Yue's work and rest time is still very regular, and after getting along with Wen Ruyan these few days, she has gradually gotten used to it, and by this time she has naturally fallen asleep.

Hearing her steady breathing, Wen Ruyan got up quietly, and then glanced at the figure standing outside the door and window.

Ever since he and Chu Yue got married in a fake manner, every night, there would definitely be an old woman standing outside their room door, just to supervise Wen Ruyan, lest he suddenly become a beast and do something bad to Chu Yue.

Wen Ruyan turned his right hand slightly, and a chess piece quietly fell from his sleeve, and then flicked towards the figure. Hearing a slight sound of breaking through the air, the chess piece went through the door and bounced directly to the figure. The neck of the figure, and then the figure fell down directly.

The movement was not big but not too small. Wen Ruyan listened carefully to the sounds around her. There was no movement in the courtyard for a long time. Presumably no one noticed it, and Chu Yue was still in a deep sleep.

Only then did Wen Ruyan get up, opened the door, glanced at the old woman lying under her feet, then looked around cautiously, and then left quietly.

Liujia Village.

At this moment, everything is already silent, and the whole village is quiet, except for the occasional crisp sound of insects.

The half moon hung high above the sky, and the dark clouds blocked half of the light.

There was a forest several zhang away from Wang's mother-in-law's yard, and when Wen Ruyan rushed over, Su Bai was already leaning against the tree trunk and waiting for him.

"Ning Wan'er is still there?"

Su Bai nodded, and then said in a slightly strange tone: "She has been in that yard all day and never left."

Wen Ruyan frowned slightly: "Haven't you ever left?"

Su Bai shook his head: "No, Ning Wan'er is really like a country girl during the day, fetching water, doing laundry, cleaning the yard, chopping firewood, cooking, it's so ordinary that it can't be any more ordinary."

Wen Ruyan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, who is Ning Wan'er?That is the eighth princess whom the Emperor of Southern Chu loves the most. She is pampered and pampered on weekdays. How could she do those rough jobs like a country girl?The more ordinary Su Bai said, the more weird it was.

"Have you ever seen Mu Xiqiu?"

Su Bai shook his head again: "No, and I was close to the yard during the day, and neither the old woman nor Ning Wan'er noticed me. I observed carefully, and there are only two rooms in this residence, and Ning Wan'er lives in one. And the other room is where the old woman lives, and there seems to be no third person in the courtyard."

"What the hell are they doing? Ning Wan'er is here, so there's no reason for Mu Xiqiu to be here."

Su Bai carefully recalled the scenes he saw during the day, and then suddenly said seriously: "By the way, for the whole day today, Ning Wan'er will always sit in that courtyard in her spare time, with a dazed expression. It's like trying to think about something."

"Do you think she really lost her memory?" Wen Ruyan asked suddenly.

"I don't know, I also think it's possible, but it doesn't rule out that she has already guessed that someone is watching outside, and deliberately performed for me."

Wen Ruyan walked back and forth with her hands behind her back.

Su Bai looked at him, and then asked again: "What are you going to do next? Do you want to go in and take her down now?"

Wen Ruyan thought about it for a long time, then shook her head, and said, "This matter is simply too weird. If she really lost her memory, then she can't be so direct. She has to find a way to use it again, but if she has a fake memory loss, see If I don't leave when it arrives, it means that there is her support here, let's take a look."

"Then I'll go in and find out tomorrow."

Wen Ruyan immediately became anxious: "No."

Su Bai smiled, and said: "Don't worry, I still have a sense of proportion, don't forget my identity, whether she has amnesia, as long as I feel the pulse, I will know the truth."
