Chapter 451 They never learn their lesson.
Chapter 451 They really don't learn their lesson
In the past three days, the Great Jing Army had almost recovered its strength. Wen Zi'an and his men traveled day and night and arrived at the Northern Border the day before Wen Luozhi was to leave.
The three siblings chatted for a while, and before leaving, Wen Zi'an patted Wen Zixun's arm.
Long time no see, you've gotten much stronger.
He wanted to take Wen Luozhi home but refused, saying, "Master Xia accompanied Fourth Brother here this time; he must be exhausted to have gotten here in such a short time."
"You all take your time returning to the manor. I and Shadow and the others will be with you; nothing will happen."
Wen Zi'an was somewhat conflicted, but Wen Luozhi had already mounted her horse and sped off.
Helian Yue waited for her outside the city, while the shadowy figure and the iron-clad man wisely kept their distance from the two as far as possible.
The two bid each other a reluctant farewell halfway through their journey, thus concluding their trip to the North.
A few days later, after arriving in the prefectural city, Wen Luozhi planned to visit Wen Zijin first.
As expected, Wen Zijin's first reaction upon seeing her was to point at her, and then she was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"you you"
"Luo'er! You're being ridiculous!"
After struggling for a while, all he could manage to say was this one sentence. Wen Luozhi chuckled, and half of his anger dissipated.
"I'm fine, Fifth Brother, and Sixth Brother is great too! He even gave me the spoils he got on the battlefield."
Wen Luozhi took out the small bow and arrow and placed it on the table with great care, as if showing off.
Wen Zijin's anger subsided after hearing what she said and seeing the things on the table.
He sighed heavily and said, "You secretly ran away and Mother fell seriously ill, but fortunately Fourth Sister-in-law had a solution."
"Go back and apologize to your parents properly. If you get beaten..."
Wen Zijing paused for a moment, shook her head slightly, and continued, "If you get beaten up, hide behind your older brothers. Just don't do anything reckless again."
Wen Luozhi nodded vigorously, repeatedly expressing remorse and promising to admit her mistakes, showing an excellent attitude.
She sat for a while before noticing that Wen Zijin had a sachet on her waist, which didn't look like the one Xie He had asked her to bring over before.
"Fifth Brother, where did you buy this sachet? It's quite pretty."
She pointed at the sachet, blinking her eyes, her heart burning with gossip.
The sachets sold outside wouldn't dare use gold thread to outline the design, anyway, she'd never seen anything like it, this one looked far too elaborate.
Upon hearing this, Wen Zijing touched the sachet at her waist and coughed lightly, saying, "A friend is seeing me off."
Fearing that Wen Luozhi, the curious one, would continue asking questions, he quickly changed the subject, "I heard that a traveling doctor came to the army and cured the plague, and a mysterious person even delivered medicine, so we finally got through the crisis."
He kept talking, and Wen Luozhi could tell he was just laughing it off, so she wisely didn't press him further.
But thinking of the mysterious person he mentioned, Wen Luozhi leaned closer and smiled, her eyes crinkling. She whispered, "What mysterious person? It's just Snowfall Manor."
Wen Zijin looked up at her with some surprise, then heard her say, "I also saw Fourth Brother. Master Xia was worried that he wouldn't know his place since it was his first time leaving the mountain, so he went with him."
However, considering that Helian Yue had also ordered the shadowy figures to gather medicinal herbs, though not openly, as Qin Yu was being watched by someone.
She said, "That mysterious person probably refers to the shadowy figure and his group. Helian Yue summoned him back to the capital."
Wen Zijin nodded, and suddenly there was a knocking sound at the door, which turned out to be three long knocks followed by two short knocks.
Wen Luozhi frowned. Who would be playing tricks and causing trouble in broad daylight?
She got up to go see what was going on, but Wen Zijin stopped her, her voice icy, "Luo'er, you don't need to pay attention to it. Just call them Wolf Big and Wolf Little."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Luozhi saw two wolfhounds suddenly dart out from some corner, reach the courtyard wall, and leap over it with incredible agility.
"This……"
Wen Luozhi: !!!
These two dogs have incredible jumping ability! And the courtyard wall is so high!
Just as she was about to ask Wen Zijin where she got it, she heard several sharp female voices outside.
"Ah! You little beast!"
"It's you guys again! Get out of my way!"
"Don't bite me! Don't bite me!"
Wen Luozhi was confused and turned to look at Wen Zijin.
“It’s He Lingfei, and this isn’t the first time,” Wen Zijin said calmly.
It got used to the screams so often that it would hear them every few days.
Wu Yazi had also finished resting. He came out and was overjoyed to see Wen Luozhi, but his expression instantly turned displeased when he heard the dogs barking outside.
He sat down and briefly explained the situation to Wen Luozhi.
After they returned from celebrating the New Year in Shanquan Village, they were harassed by He Lingfei again. Anyway, they had paid off the compensation, no one knew where He's mother got the money.
After the day the money was delivered, He Lingfei came almost every day.
What's most chilling is that the knocking is sometimes long and sometimes short; everyone knows that this kind of knocking is extremely unlucky.
Several times later, Bai Qingyu came to visit and happened to run into them. Upon hearing the news, he immediately sent over two powerful and large creatures.
It's been five or six days since the last night, so things have been much quieter lately.
He Lingfei? Wen Luozhi's lips twitched, thinking to herself, how could there be such an annoying woman?
Scholars dislike noise the most, as it disturbs their peace of mind.
Knocking on the door repeatedly until something bad happens is practically a curse! That's incredibly malicious.
"She really doesn't learn her lesson," Wen Luozhi said, getting up and walking out. It was a good opportunity to get her hands on the two men in the house, since it was inappropriate to resort to words or physical violence.
It seems the punishment from the authorities last time wasn't severe enough; this lesson is definitely lacking.
"Luo'er!"
Wen Zijin tried to stop him, but Wu Yazi snorted coldly, "What are you doing?!"
"Isn't this girl doing it all for your own good, brother?"
"She's very decisive and knows how to behave; you mustn't hurt her feelings."
After he finished speaking, he sat down calmly and drank his tea, and Wen Zijin also sat back down obediently.
Knowing his younger sister's strength, and with two dogs around, he wasn't worried about suffering any losses.
He Lingfei, who was outside, had been cornered by two wolfhounds. This time, she came prepared, carrying a large, thick stick.
Upon closer inspection, it was found to be stained with blood.
"You two little beasts, you've finally gotten your comeuppance today! Get out of my way!" She brandished the stick in her hand, her eyes fierce.
It's been a long time since I've seen Wen Zijin. Every time she comes, those two beasts bark and try to bite her. They're really annoying.
She only had a slight crush on Wen Zijin, and she only came here to annoy him with what happened at the inn, so that she would be happier.
Unexpectedly, these two beasts never even saw a human being.
Hearing the door open, a glint flashed in her eyes, but seeing that it was Wen Luozhi, she was both disappointed and excited.
She's got a weapon! Today I can get my revenge for that slap!
Wen Luozhi didn't know what she had done, but the two large wolfhounds were now somewhat listless. Although they were still facing He Lingfei, one of them was already swaying precariously.
He Lingfei let out a roar, and with a few blows, she knocked away two wolfhounds that charged at her.
"You vile woman! Today I'll vent my anger!"
