Only Lu Fanghai, fearing that Du Wenxiu would worry, asked Fan Zhao for leave and went to the farm first with Xiaohu.

After walking for a whole day, we arrived in the early morning.

Afraid of scaring them by knocking on the door at night, Ma Hu found a place to stay and did not return home until it was bright in the morning.

Seeing that Du Wenxiu still didn't speak, Lu Fanghai tentatively pulled her hand again, but this time she was not pushed away.

He couldn't help but become a little bolder, and came over with a shameless face, laughing:

"It's not that I'm hiding it from you on purpose. It's just that this plan is a bit big, and I'm afraid it will ruin things if even a little bit of it gets out."

"Even the bailiff who was taken there didn't know about it until he got there. Fan Chengyi was there too, and he even kept it a secret from Qiao'er."

As he said this, he felt very aggrieved: "If Qinglong Village knew about this first, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come back today."

Du Wenxiu angrily shook off his hand and said, "You know why I'm angry, but you still act like this."

Speaking of this, Lu Fanghai also straightened his expression and said in a deep voice:

"Xiuniang, I know you are worried about my safety and don't want me to do such a dangerous thing. But there are always some things that someone has to do."

Du Wenxiu ignored him, but Lu Fanghai also got angry. After waiting for a while and seeing that she still didn't speak, he got up and left.

Du Wenxiu sat there in a daze. Even when A Luo came to call him for lunch, he didn't say a word or move.

A Luo wanted to persuade her, but he thought that this was a matter between her and her husband, and if others said too much, it might drive them apart, which would be bad.

He had no choice but to step back and call Lu Fanghai over.

I don't know what Lu Fanghai said, but in the end he just picked out some dishes and brought them in with her. A Luo opened his mouth but didn't say anything.

Put the food down and tell her to eat.

After A Luo left, Du Wenxiu turned around and fell on the bed, covering his head with the quilt.

He stared at the roof with empty eyes, and two lines of tears flowed past his ears.

She came into this world alone, and in this era of clear class distinctions and emphasis on hierarchy, she was frightened, confused and helpless.

Only Lu Fanghai stood firmly behind her and was her strongest support no matter what decision she made or what ideas she had.

Give her peace of mind.

However, now that he has his own pursuits and persistence, he has become like this.

Are you really worried about his safety?

Du Wenxiu asked himself.

In fact, she always knew the answer.

It was because of my own anxiety and cowardice that I wanted to hide behind him and keep running away.

It is said that she was a capable female white-collar worker in her previous life, but now she has no one to rely on.

Now that she has someone to support her, she also understands why men are so fond of tenderness.

Now, he said he had his own pursuits, but he was always blocking them...

So, it's selfish, right?

------

Lu Fanghai poked his head out and saw her lying on the bed.

He walked over quietly, but not wanting to scare her, he reached out and pushed her exposed arm.

Du Wenxiu opened his eyes and looked at him.

Lu Fanghai smiled and asked her, "Are you hungry? I'll ask A Luo to heat up the food for you to eat."

Du Wenxiu sat up, put her arms around his neck and held him in her arms.

"I won't stop you from now on. Just do whatever you want to do." Du Wenxiu said softly.

Lu Fanghai sat up straight, his face full of horror.

"Xiuniang, if you are really worried, I won't go. As long as our family is fine, let others do the bandit suppression. If you call me again in the future, I won't go..."

Du Wenxiu was stunned.

After a little thought, she understood that this man simply put her and her family before his own pursuits.

This made my heart feel even more swollen, my nose felt sore, and tears began to flow.

Lu Fanghai hurriedly wiped her tears, and his rough hands brushed across her now fair and tender face, scratching it so hard that it hurt.

Du Wenxiu raised her hand and hugged his big hand, smiling through her tears, and said angrily:

"You are such a boring person. When I disagree, you are stubborn; when I agree, you are like this again. You are just annoying me."

Lu Fanghai murmured: "No... No, I... Please don't leave me..."

Only then did Du Wenxiu realize that this was what he was afraid of.

Silly.

Du Wenxiu stepped forward and hugged him, resting his head on his shoulder, and whispered:

"Why are you so stupid? You're so good to me, why shouldn't I want you? I just hope that when you do what you want to do, you must ensure your own safety and don't leave me alone..."

Two people who are in love with each other hug each other tightly, thinking about spending the rest of their lives together.

------

Du Wenxiu and Lu Fanghai reconciled, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The couple had never had a quarrel before, and this was their first time. No one had any experience in how to deal with it, so they were waiting outside in fear.

Seeing two people coming out of the house holding hands, A Luo jumped up immediately: "I'll go heat up the food."

Du Wenxiu hurriedly stopped him and said, "We'll have dinner soon, so don't bother."

A Luo had already entered the kitchen and shouted from afar: "We have to eat something first. We can cook later in the evening."

Du Wenxiu shook her head helplessly and smiled, and saw Lu Fanghai waving Xiaohu over.

"This kid came with us to fight bandits this time. Even though he was so scared that he peed his pants, he still lived up to his reputation and even captured a fugitive."

Lu Fanghai reached out and touched Xiaohu's head, and he chuckled.

Lu Fanghai added: "Wake up early every day and practice with me. After a few months, you will be almost there."

Du Wenxiu was surprised and asked, "Why, are you going to make him a yamen runner in the future?"

"As a yamen runner, I have to let this kid learn some Kung Fu. If I'm not at home in the future, he can still be of some use."

Xiaohu held his head high and chest out, letting Lu Fanghai pat his shoulder with a look of pride on his face.

Du Wenxiu nodded repeatedly. She and Lu Fanghai had concerns about keeping Xiaohu before. They were afraid that they couldn't raise the child well and he might stab them in the back.

After Lu Fanghai took him out for a trip, it seemed that there were quite a lot of changes.

He no longer acted timidly and secretly looked at people like before.

As for what will happen in the future, we’ll talk about it later.

A Luo heated up the food and brought it over. While she was eating, she told Lu Fanghai what she had done at home these days.

Upon hearing that they had expanded the workshop and launched new varieties, Lu Fanghai couldn't help but give them a thumbs up.

"In the future, our family will still have to rely on Xiuniang, so I have to work hard and not let others laugh at me for being a gigolo."

Du Wenxiu was eating, and what he said made her spit out a mouthful of soup and she kept coughing. Lu Fanghai hurried over and patted her on the back.

A Luo and Du Wenchan also hinted to him in words and deeds that he should not talk so much while eating.

No words are spoken when eating, and no words are spoken when sleeping.

Lu Fanghai stopped talking in dismay.

After resting for a night, they took a bus back to the city the next morning.

As soon as he got home, Lu Fanghai was called by his colleagues who were guarding the door.

It turned out that bringing back so many bandits this time was a great achievement, and the county magistrate was grinning from ear to ear.

After writing a lengthy letter boasting of his achievements, Mo Caigan urged the post horse to send it out, fearing that if it was delivered late it would delay his promotion and wealth.

County lieutenant Fan Zhao also interrogated the bandits day and night, trying to finish the case as soon as possible.
