When everyone was sighing after hearing this, Miss Sun suddenly stood up and pointed at Mu Qingcheng and said, "She's lying!"

Everyone was stunned. Mu Qingcheng thought to herself, this Miss Sun must have a grudge against her! Why did she keep grabbing her?

"Where did I lie?"

"You...you're lying. Everyone knows that bandits are lecherous. How could they just send a girl like you to the mines? They should have sent you to Lao Chen Village!"

The yard suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes fell on Mu Qingcheng.

Madam Zhou and Madam Fang, both women, looked gloomy. What was the intention of this Miss Sun? Why did she have to ruin other people's reputation?

Mu Qingcheng's face darkened as well. "Miss Sun, why do you want to ruin my reputation so much? What's your intention? This is my first time in Daxing Town, so I don't think I've offended you!"

"I...I..." Miss Sun avoided her gaze and stammered for a long time but couldn't say why!

Mu Qingcheng said, "I am a little girl traveling with my two brothers. For convenience, I naturally wear men's clothes."

Madam Zhou said, "That's a good idea. For a young lady going on a long journey, it's really convenient to wear men's clothes."

"That's right, that's right!" everyone agreed.

Miss Sun's face darkened, and she was about to retort when Zhou Da hurriedly stepped forward.

"Miss Mu, since it has been proven that this ox cart belongs to the Xu family, and you also say that this ox cart is not yours, then what do you think we should do now?"

Fang looked at Mu Qingcheng expectantly. Mu Qingcheng smiled calmly and said, "Of course I will return it to the Xu family."

Although she was extremely reluctant, she couldn't blame someone else for it. Fang felt relieved when she heard this and pulled Mu Qingcheng with gratitude.

"Oh! The girl is such a kind person! If my cow hadn't met the girl, I'm afraid it would never come back."

"Yes, yes, the cattle fell into the hands of bandits, how could they be returned?"

"This sister-in-law really met a kind person!"

Everyone praised it.

Mu Qingcheng said, "Don't thank me! I should thank Ah Niu too! If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have been able to escape that day."

Fang was so grateful that she almost cried: "I will never forget Miss Mu's kindness. I will definitely bring my husband to thank Miss Mu someday."

Mu Qingcheng waved her hands and said, "That's not necessary. It's still early, so Auntie should hurry and pull the ox cart home!"

Everyone also advised her to go home quickly!

"This..." Fang hesitated. She remembered that her husband had come to Daxing Town to deliver goods, was injured, and had his oxcart stolen by bandits. She was the only woman in town today. Not only did she not know how to drive an oxcart, but even pulling it home would be too dangerous.

She told him about her difficulties. Zhou Da was a warm-hearted man. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. Just leave the ox cart in our shop and come back home with your family to pick it up!"

Everyone agreed to this proposal, and Fang was so grateful that she almost cried.

"Well, then, please let the shop owner take care of the cow for another half a day. I will go home and call someone immediately. Don't worry, boss, I will pay for the fodder for the cow."

Zhou Da smiled brightly and said, "It's no big deal. Don't worry, the cow is with me!"

While everyone was discussing something and no one was paying attention, Mu Qingcheng secretly walked to the cattle shed and stroked the ox's head. Feeling a little reluctant, she whispered to the ox.

"Aniu! Your family has been found, and you're going home soon. I'm so happy for you! But you must not forget me! I'll come to see you when I'm free in the future. You must take care of yourself..."

"Hmph! So hypocritical..." Miss Sun was standing alone not far away, rolling her eyes at Mu Qingcheng with disdain.

Mu Qingcheng was upset. She just wanted to say goodbye to Ah Niu, so why did he get in her way again? Mu Qingcheng didn't even need to look at her. She still stroked the yellow cow with her hand and continued to nag.

"How disgusting! Where did these bedbugs come from? I can't get rid of them no matter how hard I try, Aniu! You must stay away from those filthy things from now on, otherwise they will crawl onto you and suck your blood, and then they will stay on you and won't leave. It's so disgusting!"

"You..." How could Miss Sun not hear that Mu Qingcheng was scolding her? She was so angry that her teeth were bared. She took out a fruit from her basket and threw it hard at Mu Qingcheng.

Mu Qingcheng was so busy saying goodbye to Huang Niu that she didn't pay any attention to what Miss Sun was doing.

But someone with sharp eyes saw it, but it was too late to warn. Amidst everyone's exclamations, a pair of slender hands caught the thrown fruit.

Mu Qingcheng turned her head and saw a light blue figure standing beside her.

"Brother, why are you here?"

When everyone looked again, they saw a handsome young man in blue standing next to Mu Qingcheng. He had one hand behind his back and the other holding a fruit.

A pair of cold eyes glared at Miss Sun, then surveyed everyone in the courtyard. Except for Mu Qingcheng and Mr. and Mrs. Zhou, no one here knew that Yun Qing was blind.

Everyone was stunned by his appearance, but also afraid to look directly at him due to his terrifying pressure.

Yun Qing raised his hand slightly, and the fruit in his hand hit Miss Sun on the forehead.

Miss Sun cried out, covering her head with her hands and her eyes widened in surprise.

Yun Qing had already shown mercy. If he had used his internal strength, the fruit would have smashed Miss Sun's head, causing her to bleed.

Mu Qingcheng finally realized what had happened. She glanced at Miss Sun, who had brought this upon herself. She then looked at Yun Qing and said with a smile, "Brother! Ah Niu has found its true owner."

Mu Qingcheng's tone sounded very calm, but Yun Qing could still sense a hint of loneliness.

This girl is so reluctant to leave even a cow. Yun Qing feels that his decision is right. The longer they are together, the more reluctant she will be to leave him!

He reached out and caressed her head lovingly. Even Mu Qingcheng was a little surprised by this natural action.

Mu Qingcheng looked up and saw that everyone was looking at them. She smiled and introduced them to everyone, "This is my eldest brother, Mu Qingguo."

Yun Qing raised an eyebrow. "Mu Qingguo," she thought, "is she asking him to take her last name?" Mu Qingcheng laughed foolishly. It was too crowded here to explain.

Fang came over again and said a lot of words of thanks to Yun Qing. Yun Qing just nodded. Fang was a little afraid of Yun Qing and didn't dare to talk to him for long. After saying thank you, she didn't know what to say.

Seeing Yun Qing's unapproachable look, which made everyone feel a little restrained, Mu Qingcheng took Yun Qing's hand and found an excuse to go back to the backyard.

"Is my cousin awake? Did he take Dr. Ma's medicine? Let's go back and check!"

Yun Qing still nodded, but his expression was much gentler when he spoke to Mu Qingcheng.

"Mr. Mu!..."

Seeing Yun Qing was about to leave, Miss Sun became anxious. She really hadn't expected that Mu Qingcheng's brother was the one she had been thinking about day and night. After all, they didn't look like siblings at all.

"Miss Sun, is there anything else?"

What else did Mu Qingcheng not understand at this moment? This Miss Sun actually liked Yun Qing! Did she regard her as a rival in love? But she was still puzzled. Was this Miss Sun sick? Shouldn't she please her in every way? She said Yun Qing was her brother, and she dared to target her. This girl must have a hole in her brain.

Yun Qing acted as if she didn't exist, and instead pulled Mu Qingcheng back to the backyard.
