The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 14 Moving
"What am I afraid of? Even if the authorities are not notified, I am not afraid."

The night was deep, and Yu Tingwan's words carried weight.

"What? You want to report this to the authorities?"

Why doesn't Yu Tingwan just accept her fate?

Xu's mother rushed over: "If you dare to harm my second son, I'll skin you alive."

But before she could reach Yu Tingwan, she was stopped by Li Lian, who was closest to her.

Li Lian pushed the person away and yelled, "Go back to your own village if you're going to go crazy! This is your home!"

"How dare you do this right under our noses? Do you really think the girls from Xilin Village are easy to bully?"

As soon as the shout fell, the villagers grabbed whatever they could find in the yard and surrounded the Xu family.

Mr. Xu panicked: "Are you going to hit someone?"

He's getting old and his sleep is shallow.

He woke up when Xu Fen tiptoed out of the kitchen. But he didn't stop him at all.

Getting angry at Xu Fen is useless right now. He can't even handle one woman.

The eldest son of the Xu family looked sullen, shielding his wife behind him, thinking he had lowered his stance: "If you don't want to marry, we won't force you. I'll have my second brother apologize to you. Don't hold this against me."

Yu Tingwan countered, "I'll castrate Xu Fen and apologize to him later, what do you think?"

The situation was at a standstill.

The village head looked Yu Tingwan up and down. She was calm and composed in the face of trouble, which was rare.

He put his hands behind his back and said, "It's alright that it's dark and difficult to travel now. Wang, the Xu family must leave first thing tomorrow morning."

Wang frowned.

She was somewhat reluctant.

Once the other person leaves, she has to do the work again.

She dared not refute what Ke Lizheng said.

The Xu family members' expressions changed drastically.

"No, our house is uninhabitable, where can we go?"

"It's so cold, isn't this just sending our whole family to die?"

Li Lian refused to listen to their wailing and lamenting: "That's your problem!"

Some villagers also followed suit.

"When you come to us in distress, we're all honest, but you're full of cunning."

“Even if the Wang family were willing to let you stay, we wouldn’t agree. I would never want to associate with relatives like that in my entire life.”

"Then go die! So you won't harm other girls."

At this moment, the village head looked at Yu Tingwan, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.

“Mother, this is a scandal after all.”

“I know you’ve been wronged. Xu Fen had malicious intentions but ultimately failed. Now he’s injured like this, and the authorities won’t take any action. If this gets out of hand, it won’t be good for you either.”

"I don't need to mention how your uncle has treated you over the years. You may not care about what outsiders say, but you should still think about him and Yaozu."

“You’re a good kid, you shouldn’t make things difficult for them.”

“It’s really not easy for us outsiders to handle this matter. How about this? Let’s leave it for now and wait for your uncle to come back. I won’t stop him from doing whatever he wants with the Xu family.”

Yu Tingwan was not surprised that the village head would try to smooth things over.

That's true, it wasn't his daughter who had the accident, so he couldn't truly empathize with her.

How could a girl whose parents had both died compare to a scholar?

She wasn't foolish enough to confront the village head of Xilin Village head-on.

She lowered her head slightly, seemingly struggling with a decision.

The village headman saw that she had been aggressive just a moment ago, but now she seemed to be softening, so his expression also became gentle.

Is there some difficulty?

Yu Tingwan pursed her lips.

"I can no longer stay at the Hu family's house."

"First the Dong family, then the Xu family, who's next?"

Her concerns are not without reason.

The village head was also disappointed with what Wang had done.

Not to mention Yu Tingwan's dissatisfaction, even he was worried.

“That’s easy to handle. Your uncle was staying at my house before he came back.”

There's an extra mouth to feed at home, but when Hu Dazhu comes back to pick up Yu Tingwan, he won't take advantage of them for nothing.

Yu Tingwan did not agree. After moving out of the Hu family's house, she had no intention of returning.

Living in the village head's house meant dealing with a large family, and it was inconvenient for her to come and go as she pleased. She also didn't want to owe anyone favors.

Seeing her hesitation, the village head said, "If you're worried about causing trouble, there's an empty old house in the village. Although it's been in disrepair for years, it can be renovated and lived in."

Yu Tingwan moved into the old house that very night.

Perhaps out of pity for her, as she was not walking very well after the fall, the villagers volunteered to help her.

Aside from firewood, a few clothes, and some fruit that Yu Tingwan had picked up outside to stave off hunger, she hadn't packed much luggage.

Although she lived in the Hu family for many years, the traces she left behind were very faint.

Seeing this, Granny Fan said sarcastically, "Anyone who didn't know better would think you lived in the woodshed."

"It seems that my stepmother's life in the Hu family wasn't so good after all."

Upon hearing this, Wang felt an urge to fight with her.

This is the countryside; it's already a good thing that there's room in the house for her to sleep.

It was dark, and Yu Tingwan couldn't see the road clearly. She was also afraid of the cold, so she just kept her head down and followed the others.

She had an injury on her leg, so she walked slowly.

The old house was far away and quite dilapidated, but the light was on next door, so someone lived there.

"This is it."

The village headman unlocked the door with a key and let everyone in.

The old house had been uninhabited for a long time; it was covered in cobwebs and very dusty.

Yu Tingwan was already very content with just a small room.

Since they were already there, the villagers weren't in a hurry to leave. They simply pitched in to help clean up, and everyone worked quickly and efficiently.

The window was rickety and rattled in the cold wind, but it was quickly secured.

Granny Fan came closer.

"Mother, I have a nephew..."

She had barely begun when she was interrupted by the plump woman beside her.

"Grandma Fan, have some decency! Your nephew is mute, and you want to introduce him to my stepmother?"

Granny Fan snapped, "So what if he's mute!"

If it weren't for her nephew being mute, she wouldn't even look at Yu Tingwan!
She held Yu Tingwan's hand and said, "Child, I really think you two are a good match."

Yu Tingwan: ...

thank you.

Everyone strained their ears and stared in their direction.

Granny Fan: "There are advantages to not being able to speak properly."

Yu Tingwan asked sincerely, "What are the benefits?"

Granny Fan choked up: ...

Yu Tingwan had no choice but to kindly answer for her.

“If we have disagreements in the future, he won’t be able to argue with me.”

Granny Fan: "Yes, yes, yes!"

Yu Tingwan forcefully pulled her hand back.

Granny Fan was not discouraged: "I have another nephew."

The fat woman said, "Shut up."

"Your other nephew is even worse. He's 28 and mentally challenged, and he still soils his pants."

“Last time you washed his underwear, he turned around and ran out naked.”

“I saw it. It’s as thin as a needle.”

People from the countryside don't hold back when they speak.

Although Yu Tingwan had never experienced romantic relationships, she knew that ordinary couples should do intimate things.

The Hu family was small, and every time Hu Dalang and Xu Shi made noise in their room, it would disturb her rest.

Besides, there are plenty of stray dogs in the countryside, and Yu Tingwan has seen male dogs on top of female dogs before...

Yu Tingwan felt a chill run down her spine just thinking about it.

Isn't being thinner better?

Otherwise it would hurt so much
Once it's over, everyone will assume he didn't come in.

Yu Tingwan was inspired.

She's going to look for something very detailed!
