Hearing this, Old Man Su felt even more distressed. He quickly freed one hand to cup Widow Li's face and wipe away her tears.

"My dear sister, how could you say that? You're the one I've been thinking about all the time. That's why I come to see you as soon as I have a spare moment."

As he spoke, Old Man Su suddenly remembered something and quickly turned around to close the courtyard gate. Only then did he feel at ease and take Widow Li's hand to sit down on the stone bench in the courtyard.

"Have you had any water to drink while I was away these past few days?"

Widow Li nodded.

"I carried two loads of water myself today, and look how red my shoulders are from all the rubbing."

As she spoke, Widow Li ripped open her outer garment and then pulled down the collar of her inner garment, revealing her pale arms.

Seeing this, Old Man Su swallowed hard, then reached out and gently massaged her skin. Because Widow Li didn't own much land and didn't work in the fields much, her skin was much smoother than that of the other old women.

As Old Man Su rubbed Widow Li's shoulders, he was panting heavily. At that moment, he felt hot all over, and even Widow Li blushed.

At the moment, Widow Li was only wearing an undergarment. Because the fabric was thin, her body was faintly visible under the moonlight.

Old Su stared blankly, swallowing hard. The hand that had been touching his shoulder slowly moved down. Just as Old Su was feeling excited, he suddenly heard a "clang" from the courtyard.

Startled, Old Man Su's stiff body went limp, and he quickly withdrew his hand, saying nervously:

"Li Meizi, I'll come see you again when I have time. I can't stay out for too long right now."

Widow Li reluctantly got up to see Old Man Su out.

"Brother Su, next time you come, remember to meow three times at the door, and I'll know it's you."

Old Man Su nodded and hurriedly turned and ran towards home. He didn't dare tell Widow Li that he had sneaked out while Granny Liu was asleep, after all, he was a man and also wanted to save face.

Old Su had forgotten all about Widow Li the moment he saw her, and now he was afraid that Granny Liu would suddenly wake up and go crazy if she found out he wasn't sleeping on the kang (heated brick bed).

When Old Man Su returned to the courtyard, panting, he found no movement in his room. So he tiptoed back inside, unaware that Su Banxia, ​​who had just emerged from the spatial dimension, had witnessed everything.

Although the affair between Old Man Su and Widow Li hadn't been publicized, it was no secret within the Su family. So, Su Banxia knew perfectly well that Old Man Su was secretly meeting with Widow Li.

Su Banxia didn't want to expose him yet, but was waiting to use it as leverage to force Old Man Su to do things for her when necessary.

With that thought in mind, Su Banxia lay down and went to sleep.

The next day,

Su Banxia has been busy handling the house and land deeds these past few days and hasn't gone into the mountains to look for meat for several days. If she doesn't go into the mountains to try her luck today, all the meat in her space will be gone.

Now that the house and land deeds at the foot of Dwarf Mountain are all done, Su Banxia is thinking of going up the mountain to get some things to exchange for money in the city to build a house.

She was really fed up with living in the old Su family's house. It was small and damp, and the outhouse was filthy. The whole family of more than ten people lived in one place, and when they were in a hurry, they had to queue up to use the outhouse.

In the future, Su Banxia plans to build a large house at the foot of Dwarf Mountain, where the two families will live together, and also build a two-story building, which will be very comfortable to live in.

Su Banxia was overjoyed just thinking about it.

"Hey sis, what are you laughing at? Have you run out of water for washing your face?"

Su Banxia turned her head and saw Su Shiyan's confused face, so she quickly smiled and said:

"It's nothing, I've finished using this water."

After saying that, Su Banxia wiped her face with a towel and looked at Wang Guihua, who was busy at work, and said:

"Mother, I can't go to the fields with you today. I'm going to the mountains to find some game."

Wang Guihua nodded and said:

"Okay, then be careful and come back quickly if you can't find it."

Su Shiyan, who was standing to the side, washed his face hastily, then splashed the water into the yard.

“Mother, my younger sister is a blessed person. How could she come back empty-handed?”

As he spoke, Su Shiyan put down the washbasin and patted Su Banxia on the shoulder.

"Big sister, I want to eat meat. Bring back more meat."

Su Banxia patted Su Shiyan's head, both amused and exasperated.

"Eat, eat, all you ever think about is eating!"

Seeing how close the two were, Su Mo's face immediately turned cold, and she slammed the door and left.

Seeing this, Su Banxia and Su Shiyan, who were playfully fighting, exchanged a glance, shrugged helplessly, and went about their own business.

Su Banxia packed a few handy tools and went up the mountain. This time, she went to Dwarf Mountain again. This mountain has many forests and abundant produce, so Su Banxia likes to come here to find food.

Su Banxia had been thinking all day that she had come up the mountain to find meat to eat, so along the way she first found a pheasant whose leg was tangled in hemp rope, and then a rabbit that had fallen into a trap.

As Su Banxia was happily climbing towards the mountaintop, she suddenly tripped over something and fell straight down.

"what"

"What is this? Why is it still warm?"

Su Banxia hurriedly got up and cleared away the weeds on the ground, only to be met with Wei Kezhi's murderous gaze.

"Um, I, I didn't mean to fall on you..."

As soon as Su Banxia finished speaking, she saw Wei Kezhi looking pained and said:

"Can you help me up?"

Seeing this, Su Banxia quickly dropped what she was holding and reached out to help Wei Kezhi. When she helped Wei Kezhi sit down against the big tree, she discovered that Wei Kezhi's calf was injured and was still bleeding.

"Um, do you need any help?"

Su Banxia pointed to Wei Kezhi's leg.

"Need not!"

Upon hearing this, Su Banxia said "Oh," turned around, picked up the pheasant and rabbit from the ground, and prepared to leave.

Seeing her leave so resolutely, Wei Kezhi immediately felt a pang of regret and called out:

"Hey, you picked up my pheasant and rabbit, how can you just leave me here like this?"

Hearing this, Su Banxia turned around speechlessly, picked up her prey, and waved it at Wei Kezhi.

"You say these things are yours, and when you call them, do they respond?"

"The hemp rope on the pheasant's leg and the trap where the rabbit fell were all things I set in advance."

Upon hearing this, Su Banxia's face stiffened, she clicked her tongue awkwardly, then slung the prey behind her back and stubbornly said:

"Just because you say it's yours doesn't mean it's yours. I could say it was a trap I set."

Looking at her shameless demeanor, Wei Kezhi couldn't help but frown. He didn't know why, but he always felt a strange sense of closeness to this woman, and he only felt comfortable when she touched him...
