Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside Chapter 867 - 869: Honey, I’m Sorry

After the villagers left, Shitou’s mother asked worriedly, "Sister, can dicine King Valley really treat villagers without a letter of introduction?"

dicine King Valley isn’t far from here. The rules on that side are known here—a rule as ancient and unchanging as this can really be changed just like that? She was worried that Xiaoxiao had used this to trick the villagers, fearing they wouldn’t be able to extricate themselves.

Xiaoxiao understood Shitou’s mother’s concerns, so she said, "Sister-in-law, don’t worry. We just ca from there. The villagers will definitely be treated when they reach the dicine King Valley."

"That’s good, that’s good." Upon hearing Xiaoxiao’s reassuring answer, Shitou’s mother let out a long sigh of relief.

At that mont, Little Liufu in her arms began to cry. Xiaoxiao rocked the child as she said, "Sister-in-law, we’ll go inside first. We can talk later if there’s anything."

"Yes, yes, you hurry inside and take care of the child. The child must have been quite frightened just now." Shitou’s mother quickly agreed.

Just as Xiaoxiao was about to leave, she saw an unfamiliar man approaching with a smile on his face, "Beauty, let help you. I’m quite skilled at taking care of children."

Seeing the man chatting up his wife again, Yang Ming quickly stepped forward, wrapping his arm around his wife, glaring at the stranger and declaring his ownership, "Of course, my son will be taken care of by . We don’t need an outsider like you."

After speaking, he gave the man a provocative look and swaggered back into the house with his wife.

The unfamiliar man stood there, a smile on his lips, lost in thought.

Though she couldn’t see, from the man’s tone, Shitou’s mother could guess what sort of person he was. She shook her head and said, "Let Little Shitou find you a room. It’s a bit of an imposition for you to stay at our house."

"Thank you, it’s no imposition. It’s quite nice here." The man responded politely, his tone entirely mischief-free.

This greatly surprised Shitou’s mother, but she could do nothing about it, "Little Shitou, quickly take this uncle with you."

"Okay, mom." Little Shitou agreed, "Uncle, follow , please."

Even though Little Shitou’s ho was worn down, there were still rooms available. After all, quite a few people used to live there.

Once Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao entered the house, they busied themselves with Little Liufu. After tidying up Little Liufu, Yang Ming looked at his wife with guilt on his face. He held her hand and said, "Wife, I’m sorry I couldn’t protect you and the child."

Xiaoxiao shook her head, looking at Yang Ming and holding his hand, she said, "Husband, please don’t bla yourself. It’s not your fault. Faced with so many unreasonable and violent villagers, even if you had three heads and six arms, you would be helpless."

She didn’t think Yang Ming was weak at all. Faced with a hundred or so savage villagers, he had always been the first to stand in front of them. He had done more than enough.

Hearing his wife’s comforting words, Yang Ming pulled her into a tight embrace, "Wife, these days have been hard on you."

Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, "Not hard at all."

Yang Ming held his wife even tighter, making a promise, "Wife, I will definitely make myself stronger in the future to protect you and our child."

"Mmh." Xiaoxiao agreed. Those words were enough for her. She didn’t need a very strong husband. Her requirents were very minimal; she just wanted him to be by her side and treat her well.
