Chapter 029 Don't Believe Chu Yan Can Escape This Time
The aunt couldn't help stroking her cloak and murmuring to herself.
"I said this is suitable for you. Look...it looks really good on you. Are you not someone's lost daughter? How did you end up in our house?"
Before Chu Yan could speak, the aunt said to Chang Zhe, "There are many people in the town, so we must protect her."
"knew."
Chang Zhe said with a smile that he was wearing new clothes and the shoes were made for him by Chu Yan only recently.
They all fit just right.
The aunt even joked that they had known each other before.
When Chu Hong arrived at Chang Zhe's house, she saw the two of them standing together, in an indescribable harmony.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on them, and Chu Hong couldn't help but rush out to break such peaceful beauty.
"Brother Chang, let's go."
Chu Hong deliberately ignored Chu Yan, and then looked down at the clothes she was wearing. She suddenly felt that the brand-new clothes had lost some of their color, and she was so angry that her teeth itched.
Chu Yan and Chu Hong sat behind the bullock cart while Chang Zhe drove the cart.
When they arrived in the town, they put the bullock cart in the backyard of the shopkeeper's house. By this time, there was already a bustling crowd on the street.
When Chu Yan saw the fresh faces, her eyebrows and eyes burst into laughter, and she was filled with indescribable joy.
This is the joy that only those who have experienced death can discover.
Chang Zhe found that she was in great spirits, and her mood couldn't help but get better.
"There is a place for guessing lantern riddles over there, let's go check it out."
Chu Hong tugged on Chang Zhe's sleeve, and he was stunned for a moment. Before he could speak, he was already pulled over by her.
"Yanyan!"
Worried that Chu Yan would get lost, Chang Zhe could only hold her wrist in desperation.
Chu Yan felt a force pulling her over there, and then her whole body fell into his chest, causing her nose to hurt slightly.
The woman's fragrance hit his nostrils, causing Chang Zhe's expression to change unnaturally, and his eyes to become a little darker.
Chu Hong stamped her feet in anger!
"Why can't you walk steadily?"
It’s obviously intentional!
Chang Zhe glared at her and said angrily, "I accidentally pulled her."
After he finished speaking, he asked Chu Yan softly, "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt. It's okay."
She was in a good mood right now and didn't want to worry about that.
She caught a glimpse of a platform set up in the middle of the road not far away. There were many lanterns of various shapes on it. There was a piece of paper hanging under each lantern. The red paper was fluttering in the wind, beaming with joy.
Many people around him had already gathered around.
The shopkeeper shouted loudly, "Guess the lantern riddles, guess the lantern riddles! If you guess right, you don't have to pay, and you will get a free lantern!"
This is an event held every year in the town.
Chu Hong made an appointment with someone here, so she spared no effort to take them there.
Chu Yan was also very interested and didn't think much about it at all.
She ran so hard that she was out of breath, but she didn't notice it at all.
There were dots of light in those eyes, reflecting the colorful lanterns.
"That cat is so cute."
She pointed at one of them, her eyebrows arched with a smile.
"Girl, you have such a good eye. I'll give you ten cents to make a guess. If you guess right, this lantern will be yours."
"good."
Chu Yan agreed without even thinking.
Chang Zhe, who was standing by, had his eyes on her. He only waited for the shopkeeper to bring the lantern riddles, and he gave the correct answer after just one glance.
"My little husband is so awesome, this lantern is yours."
When the lantern arrived in her hand, her face became even more soft and beautiful.
Not far away, Chu Hong tugged on a man's arm and pointed in the direction of Chu Yan, "That's her."
The man was impatient, but when his eyes fell on Chu Yan, his eyes straightened.
He couldn't believe that there was such a beautiful woman in this small town, and his heart suddenly started to heat up, and he became fascinated.
"How about it?"
Chu Hong asked in a low voice.
This man was a bully she met in the town. She was almost kidnapped by his brothers last time. In order to protect herself, she told them that there was a more beautiful girl from the same village as her.
The man didn't have high hopes, but he didn't expect...
"good."
The man nodded, casually gave Chu Hong a couple of pieces of silver, and then said, "Try to get rid of the men around her, brother, there are some benefits for you."
Chu Hong smiled.
She pinched the broken silver in her hand, and a faint light flashed in her eyes.
She didn't believe that Chu Yan could escape this time.
When she returned to Chang Zhe and Chu Yan again, Chang Zhe didn't know anything, but Chu Yan had already discovered Chu Hong's movements and kept silent, pretending that she didn't know anything.
At the lantern festival, Chu Yan was holding a lantern in her hand, dressed beautifully, and had Chang Zhe beside her, which caused many people to turn around and look at her.
From time to time, men came to strike up a conversation, but Chang Zhe glared back.
At this time, he finally realized what his mother and the villagers were worried about.
Chu Yan is so pretty.
This kind of good-lookingness is not about her appearance, but about her whole person's temperament. No matter how she buries herself in the crowd, she can be spotted by others at a glance.
So later, Chang Zhe even grabbed her wrist a little domineeringly, or stretched out a hand and put it on her back, making a protective gesture.
Gradually, fewer and fewer people came to see Chu Yan.
"Oops, my hairpin fell off!"
Chu Hong's voice of exclamation came, and both Chang Zhe and Chu Yan looked over.
She looked like she was about to cry, "What should I do? This is the dowry my mother gave me. If I dare to lose it, she will kill me."
"Go back and look for it."
Chang Zhe frowned and said something.
Chu Hong said again, "But there are so many people here, where can we look for them? Otherwise, how about we look for them separately?"
She suggested.
Changzhe looked hesitant.
"It will be faster if we search separately. It's in this location, so we should be able to find it quickly."
Chu Hong said again.
"What do you think?"
Chang Zhe subconsciously wanted to ask Chu Yan for his opinion.
"sure."
Chu Yan nodded.
"Okay, I'll go to the middle, Brother Chang will go over there, Yan Yan, you go over here."
Chu Hong quickly assigned tasks.
Chu Yan smiled and nodded.
She noticed the eyes fixed on her and quickly disappeared into the crowd, and the other party hurriedly chased after her.
After a while, Chu Yan walked to a narrow alley and hid himself in it.
By the time the man caught up with him, no one was there.
"Damn it! The duck that reached the mouth actually ran away!"
He was so angry that he stamped his feet and took a few steps forward.
Chu Yan happened to go out, but suddenly found someone on the building in the distance.
The other person was tall and tall, sitting casually on the eaves. If it weren't for the amazing angle, he probably wouldn't have been spotted.
The white clothes were particularly eye-catching. When she wanted to take a closer look, the other person seemed to turn his head and look over. Chu Yan was immediately stunned.
She pretended not to see anything and came out of the alley, bought a mask from a vendor, changed the direction of her cloak, took off the hairpin from her hair, made some changes, and then re-entered the alley.
in the crowd.
She is a person who believes in repaying retaliation the most in her life.
