The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

Yu Ruyue looked at everyone who was suspicious of everything, and no one dared to think about the saltpeter.

She explained with a smile, "Just like you see, this thing turns into ice when it meets water."

"In the future, in the summer, we can also put a big bucket of ice in the house to cool down like the emperor and empress in the palace. When the situation outside stabilizes, we can also bring ice from the mountain to sell."

After Shen Jiaojiao recovered from her shock, she squatted down and hugged the cold wooden barrel. "Oh my God! Ruyue! Are we going to get rich again?"

Yu Ruyue smiled and bent down to nod her head, "Look at you, you're so obsessed with money!"

Shen Jiaojiao chuckled twice, "Isn't this what I learned from you? When I think about my future as a noble and wealthy person, I wish the weather would stay warm for two more days."

Mother Shen knocked her head angrily, "You damn girl! What nonsense are you talking about? If it gets hotter for two more days, we won't be able to grow crops next year."

Shen Jiaojiao rubbed her head and said with a smile: "Just kidding, mom!"

Everyone looked at Shen Jiaojiao, who was enjoying the coolness and comfort, and reached out their hands to touch the ice.

This long-lost coolness made them wish they could each hold an ice cube.

Seeing that they were having fun outside, Yu Ruyue went inside to feed Shen Chou water and medicine.

After feeding him, Yu Ruyue looked at that pale, handsome face, feeling extremely uncomfortable. She reached out and touched his winged brow, then his closed eyes, and then moved her hand down along his tall nose. Just as her hand was about to touch his pale, thin lips, a pair of bony hands suddenly grasped her wrist and chuckled, "Little devil, are you taking advantage of my inability to resist and molesting me?"

Yu Ruyue suddenly met those affectionate and beautiful eyes and quickly pulled her hand back.

Shen Chou was already seriously injured and felt weak all over. Even if he wanted to hold the slender wrist again, he couldn't muster any strength.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Ruyue~ I'm like this, don't tell me you still don't trust me?"

Yu Ruyue snorted coldly, "Shen Chou! Stop pretending to be pitiful here. Every word you said that day is still etched in my mind. I dare not forget it for a moment."

"Afraid that if I forget even a little, I'll be turned into a human pig!?"

Shen Chou felt bitter in his heart and he hurriedly tried to explain.

Yu Ruyue raised her hand to interrupt him. "You don't have to explain yet. I know you're not the Shen Chou I know, but I can still call you Shen Chou. You're very angry about me sending you to jail, but this was what I agreed with Zhiheng from the beginning. I didn't know you'd show up so suddenly!"

"But I also know that you must have suffered a lot in prison, and I'm deeply sorry for that. But this is a matter between the two of us, and has nothing to do with my parents or family. If you truly want revenge, then come to me. But if you dare to touch my family, I will never forgive you, even if it means my death."

"Even after I sent you to prison, I also tried all sorts of things outside, sacrificing my reputation and all my hard work, but I still couldn't get you out!"

"If you don't believe me, you can just ask anyone in Hedong Village. If you still want to turn me into a human pig after asking, I..."

Shen Chou didn't continue to listen to her harsh words, but tried to support his body, stretched out his slender hand, and gently covered her mouth.

"Ruyue! Listen to me, I just said that in anger."

"I never had that thought."

"And I am your Shen Chou, I..."

Yu Ruyue slapped his hand away fiercely and said coldly, "No! You are not!"

Shen Chou's eyes were bloodshot, and he said stubbornly, "I am! You belong to me from beginning to end."

Yu Ruyue sneered, "Then let me ask you, what about the two words Zhiheng and reconciliation?"

Shen Chou was stunned for a moment.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Yu Ruyue's eyes. She stood up and took two steps back. "Although you share the same appearance and may be the same person in the eyes of outsiders, to me, Shen Zhiheng will always be Shen Zhiheng!"

After she finished speaking, she immediately turned around and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, thinking that since it was confirmed, she should give up.

So she hurried to leave, but just as she took a step forward, she felt a pair of large hands firmly grasping her ankles. She turned around and met Shen Chou's pleading red eyes on the ground, "Ruyue! Please don't leave."

"Listen to my explanation."

Yu Ruyue pulled her foot back indifferently. "There's nothing to explain. You can never replace him! After all, he never thought of killing me..."

Shen Chou stretched out his hand to hold her ankle again, but he had no strength at all. Even if the wound on his body opened again, he was unaware of it. He only felt that the light in front of his eyes was extinguished bit by bit. At this moment, he could only see that resolute back in his eyes and heart.

He didn't care about the wound on his arm at all, crawled forward anxiously, roaring in despair, but the person in front of him didn't even look back.

He felt his heart ached to the extreme, his eyes were empty, and a feeling of desperate suffocation enveloped his whole body, as if he was going to die in the next second. He had never felt this way before. Even if he was betrayed by everyone in the world, he had never felt so uncomfortable.

Finally, he finally said those words, "Yu Ruyue! He's still here!"

Yu Ruyue stopped immediately, her voice trembling, "What did you say?"

"Ruyue! He's really still here, but he's seriously injured and can't communicate with you."

"Believe me, I will never lie to you. If I keep even a single word of my oath, I will be struck by lightning..."

Yu Ruyue turned around to look at the disheveled man and shouted, "Shut up! Don't say anything!"

Shen Chou finally waited for Guang to look back, and he immediately shut his mouth. As expected, the little elf still loved him!

The people outside the cave were so frightened by Shen Chou's desperate roar that they dared not stay where they were. They quickly picked up the things at hand and pretended to be very busy.

Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan looked inside with some worry.

They looked at Shen Chou lying on the ground, his humble and desperate appearance was so heartbreaking.

But, their daughter must have her reasons for doing this. They just need to guard the door well and not let anyone in to disturb the two of them.

Yu Ruyue squatted down, staring intently into Shen Chou's eyes, and said word by word: "This is the last chance I'm giving you. Tell me, what's going on between you two? If you dare to lie to me, I'll throw you into the back mountains and feed you to the wild beasts."
