He didn’t let up, “I’ll accompany you.”

“No need.” She quickly shook her head.

“I’m free anyway…” He still wouldn’t give up.

“Second brother, just rest at home. Your leg is injured; it’s not suitable for you to walk around a lot.”

“I’m fine using crutches.” He said.

She simply stopped and looked at him, “Second brother, I want to be alone and have some quiet time.”

“Alright.” He finally stopped following her, “Yue’er, you’re going to cut grass without a knife?”

She went back to the storage room, picked up a hatchet, “I’ll use the hatchet to cut first, and when I go to town someday, I’ll buy a couple of sickles.”

With that, she headed for the mountain.

“Yue’er, come back sooner.” Xiao Yishan reminded her worriedly from behind.

She waved her hand, indicating she got it.

After turning several corners and reaching the foot of the mountain, she saw a middle-aged woman carrying a load of firewood on her shoulder pole.

She moved aside a bit.

Surprisingly, the woman stopped right in front of her and stared at her with somewhat yellowed, murky eyes, sizing her up restlessly.

Su Qingyue furrowed her brows, intending to walk away.

However, the middle-aged woman blocked her path and said gruffly, “You earned 300 taels?”

Qingyue raised an eyebrow, “Yes.”

Hearing that, the woman’s eyes gleamed with greed. She dropped the shoulder pole with firewood, “Quickly, give me the 300 taels!”

Just as she was about to grab Su Qingyue, Su Qingyue placed the hatchet against her neck, “Are you an old hag trying to rob me?”

“What robbery?” Her eyes suddenly filled with yellowish wrinkles. She should’ve been frightened with the knife against her neck, but thinking about how weak Su Qingyue usually was and how she wouldn’t dare hurt anyone, she became less scared, and said in a stern voice, “You originally belonged to my Zhu Family!”

Last time when the waiter from Sun’s Rice Shop delivered the food, Su Qingyue had seen this woman, assuming she was just a villager. She had gone back to the Xiao Family first, so the woman didn’t follow and watch the commotion, leading Su Qingyue to not know who she was.

Now she knew.

Claiming that she, Su Qingyue, belonged to the Zhu Family, meaning this old hag was—Old Lady of the Zhu Family, Zhu Mei-shi.

Moreover, this old woman did indeed resemble that ugly Zhu Nengwen.

Su Qingyue sarcastically laughed, “You’ve already sold me to the Xiao Family.”

“Qingyue, can’t I take back the deal?” Old Lady of the Zhu family, Zhu Mei-shi, wanted to carefully pry open the hatchet on her neck, “Move your knife away, in case it draws blood…”

Su Qingyue’s gaze was cold, “I have nothing to do with you anymore. Leave me alone.”

She put away the hatchet after saying that.

Since she had no intention of killing, the scare tactic wasn’t very effective either.

If she annoys her, she’ll just kick her away.

Zhu Mei-shi had always bullied the original Su Qingyue, who was so timid that she was even afraid of speaking to strangers. When Su Qingyue dared to hold the hatchet against her just now, she thought Su Qingyue had changed her ways.

Now that the hatchet was easily withdrawn, it seemed like it was just an intimidation tactic.

Zhu Mei-shi suddenly grew bolder. With a fake smile on her face, she said, “Xiao Yue, listen to me. It was my mistake before. Although I was a bit strict with you back then, it was because you were young and ignorant. I was afraid that without proper education, you’d go astray. In fact, I really cared for you.”

“Oh?” Su Qingyue snorted.

Thinking of how her original body looked when she first time-traveled, it wasn’t just about getting beaten to death by the steamed bun stall owner, she would’ve also died from filth or been abused to death even without that.

Seeing Su Qingyue showing no reaction, Zhu Mei-shi thought she was moved by her words, so she pushed harder, “After all, you lived with my Zhu Family for half a year. If it wasn’t for me buying you, your in-laws would have beaten you to death long ago! So in a sense, I’m your savior!”
