Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

to have this sort of attitude and expression, only the old Yang family, especially Yang Huai Shan, could manage it.

Who would be happy seeing him?

Lian Ze even stood in front of Lian Fang Zhou and stretched out his arms, and shouted at Yang Huai Shan fiercely: “You stay away from my sister! Otherwise, do you want someone to see it and report back to your mother and wife so they can come and wrong us again!”

The reaction of Lian Fang Zhou and Lian Ze after seeing him has made him very sad.
Hearing Lian Ze’s words at this moment, Yang Huai Shan felt even more uncomfortable.

Heart-stuck.

He did not go forward or leave, standing there and saying: “Fang Zhou–“

“I am not so familiar with you!”

“Respect! Is my sister’s name yours?”

Lian Fang Zhou and Lian Ze interrupted him without any mercy.

Don’t mention any merciless words, Lian Fang Zhou really wanted to take Yang Huai Shan’s head off! How could there be such a disgusting person in this world! It was really enlightening!

“Miss Lian,” Yang Huai Shan said with an injured expression and a long sigh, “I also heard about the things the previous two days… I apologize for my mother… Don’t worry, since that land has been sold to you, our family will not ask for it back!”

Lian Fang Zhou couldn’t help but snort.
So, if you did wanted it back, you think you could take it?

“You hurry up! Don’t bother me anymore!” Lian Fang Zhou said impatiently.

If he had stopped his mother before she learned who bought the land and went to make trouble, or had even come to warn her, than Lian Fang Zhou would have accepted his apology.

But no.
After everything that should and shouldn’t have happened was finished, he just rushed over to say something like this.
Isn’t it awkward?

Not only did he owe her a beating, Lian Fang Zhou wanted to beat him until he vomited blood!

Especially after seeing the hurt and tangled pain on his face.

Yang Huai Shan sighed slightly, and said, “You, how are you?”

Lian Fang Zhou was almost shaking with rage!

“Fuck!” She gritted her teeth and squeezed a word from between her teeth, her face dark.
She gave Yang Huai Shan a furious glare.

“Fang Zhou, I—”

“My sister told you to go! Didn’t you hear her!” Lian Ze was also very annoyed.

“What happened?” Ah Jian asked as he came back.

“Nothing! It’s just an irrelevant person, let’s go!” Lian Fang Zhou said to Ah Jian, not looking at Yang Huai Shan again.
She got into the donkey cart with Lian Ze.

Ah Jian glanced at Yang Huai Shan, nodded with a ‘oh’, and sat in the driver’s seat in front.
He waved his whip and drove the cart forward.

This unconcealed disgust and defensive indifference made Yang Huai Shan feel very injured.
He stood there, staring at the donkey cart as it left, without moving for a while.

He cared about her, really cared about her! Why wouldn’t she give him kind look?

He knew that she hated him and blamed him, but he really didn’t want it to be like this.
He has his own difficulties, why can’t she just forgive him?

Every time she was like this, it hurt his heart but somehow it made him care more for her.
The more guilt he felt, the more concerned he was.

Maybe one day she will forgive him, right? Fang Zhou had always been a reasonable, gentle and nice woman, he knew…

“What did that magpie want? Did she ask you to go work for the Zhao family again?” The donkey cart had traveled a long distance before the stuffy feeling in Lian Fang Zhou’s chest eased up and she could talk again.
 

TN: *The original word here translated to ‘coolie’, which appears to be an offensive word for native laborers.

**It seems that Xi Cue’s name means magpie.
