Chapter 486: Chapter 487: My Wife and I Have a Great Relationship

In Yang Family Village’s main square

"Hey, did you hear? Last night, dozens of people arrived at the old Yang Family’s place, seemed to be Scholar’s wife’s maternal relatives."

"I heard that, seems like the two families might have fought in the courtyard over the Scholar’s wife’s matter."

"They must have beaten them up pretty bad, considering they had more people."

"That group left overnight, seemed like they took the Scholar’s wife with them."

"Didn’t Yang Erzhu and his whole family also leave in a bullock cart this noon?"

"If you ask me, it’s turned into quite the affair. Scholar’s wife is so young, how could she just be not okay all of a sudden?"

"Ah, who can say otherwise!"

"..."

"..."

The horse-drawn carriage and the bullock cart split into two groups. The fourth brother drove the bullock cart to town to fetch medicine, while they returned home in the horse-drawn carriage.

As soon as the carriage entered the village, they saw a crowd gathered in the main square chatting. Even though they couldn’t make out what was being discussed, they knew it had to be about their family.

To stop the rumors, Xiaoxiao said, "Honey, let’s get down."

The carriage stopped right there in the main square.

As Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming approached the crowd, they hadn’t yet spoken a word when they heard the ongoing chatter.

"You all say the Scholar’s wife might not make it, can the Scholar remarry then?"

"He definitely has to remarry; they’ve only been married for four months and have no children yet."

"Does that mean those unwed girls in our village have a chance now?"

"Absolutely!"

"..."

"..."

Hearing this made Xiaoxiao’s face turn green with anger. She wasn’t dead yet, and here these people were, eager to marry off their daughters to her husband. She stepped forward and said, "Am I not okay? How come I didn’t know that?"

Her voice startled the crowd, "Oh my goodness!"

Turning around to see it was the Scholar’s wife, who looked perfectly fine, they wondered who had been spreading rumors that she was almost gone.

Someone, puzzled, asked, "Scholar’s wife, are you alright?"

Pretending to know nothing, Xiaoxiao replied, "I’ve been fine all along, just went back to my parents’ home. How did it turn into me being not okay?"

"Hehe, glad you’re fine." Everyone awkwardly chuckled, not knowing what else to say, and commented with an evasive tone.

"Everyone, disperse and go about your business; stop chatting here." One of them took the lead, eager to escape the awkward situation.

But they were stopped by Yang Ming, "Everyone, wait a moment."

Being stopped by the Scholar, everyone was quite surprised and awkwardly said, "Scholar Yang, what is it?"

"I feel it’s necessary to clarify, my wife and I are very much in love. You don’t need to go out of your way to match me with someone else. It’s absolutely impossible. I’ll only have this one wife in my lifetime."

Having said that, Yang Ming took his wife and got back into the carriage, which then headed towards their home, leaving the crowd exchanging awkward glances.

"See, you were the one who started it."

"Didn’t you say it too?"

"Enough now, you all can give up your hopes."

"..."

"..."

No matter what, with the Scholar’s wife standing there lively and well in front of them, there was nothing more to say, so everyone went home.

As soon as Xiaoxiao got home, she was surrounded by several family members who stayed back, including Yang Qiu and the three children, who all cried again.

Afterward, Xiaoxiao went back inside the house, which was warmed up, obviously the work of Yang Qiu, her sister-in-law, who always knew how to warm someone’s heart.

"Honey, where’s the bracelet?"
