Chapter 36: Why Are You Staring at Me?

Wei Luan, who was resting under the tree, heard Carpenter Li and his wife’s voices and immediately sat up.

Had Lin Yi gone to the riverside to wash clothes? Didn’t he ask Liuliu to keep an eye on her? Why did Liuliu still let her do the laundry?

The weather was so cold, and Lin Yi was not feeling well yesterday.

How could she go to the river to wash clothes?

No, he had to go over to the river.

Wei Luan gritted his teeth and hurriedly told Ergou, “I’m leaving for a while. I’ll be back soon!”

“Make it quick. If the supervisors find out that you’re missing, your points will be deducted!”

“Got it!”

Wei Luan hurried towards the river, but halfway there, a yellow dog that came out of nowhere kept barking at him. The children beside him were so scared that they did not dare to approach.

The yellow dog’s body was dirty, and a few patches of its skin were bald. It looked old and ugly. Wei Luan had something urgent on his mind, and when he saw the yellow dog blocking the way, he felt even more irritated.

The child at the side was still making a fuss. “Kill it! It keeps stealing food! Beat it to death!”

Wei Luan was irritated and scolded the yellow dog. The yellow dog had probably never seen such a fierce man. It was so frightened that it took two steps back and made way for him.

When Wei Luan walked past it, it followed behind him silently. Wei Luan ignored the big yellow dog and hurried to the river.

He looked through the group of women who were washing clothes and soon found Lin Yi.

Although the temperature was not that low during the day, it was almost winter. The autumn wind was like a cold knife on Lin Yi’s face. Lin Yi’s fair face turned red from the cold, and Wei Luan felt sorry for her.

Just as he was about to walk forward, he noticed a woman standing next to Lin Yi. He recognized that woman. It was Widow Guo.

“Who are you? Why are you staring at me?”

Not far away, the woman had been staring at Lin Yi for two minutes. Lin Yi could not take it anymore. She threw the clothes in her hands into the basin and stood up to look at her.

The woman looked to be about 30 years old. There was an exquisite floral hairpin on her head. Her face was covered in white powder, and her lips were red. When she walked, she twisted her waist and butt, looking very sexy.

Widow Guo walked up to Lin Yi and smiled warmly. “I forgot to introduce myself. My husband, Chang Tie, was close friends with Wei Luan. You should call me Sister-in-Law! I heard that Wei Luan married a beautiful wife, but I didn’t expect her to be so beautiful. I was stunned for a moment back there!”

Widow Guo went to the village to exchange food stamps. She overheard a few women coming back from washing clothes by the river talking about Lin Yi. She then found out that Lin Yi had gone to the river to wash clothes.

Widow Guo was curious about Wei Luan’s new wife. She had heard that Lin Yi was pretty, but she was not convinced.

How pretty was she? Was she prettier than her? When she was young, she was the prettiest girl in the village.

Out of curiosity and to suss out the competition, Widow Guo decided to check out Lin Yi.

When she reached the river, Widow Guo immediately saw Lin Yi.

Lin Yi’s temperament was so unique that she could spot her from a mile away among these countryside women.

Widow Guo could not put her finger on it, but it certainly made her feel inferior.

So this was Wei Luan’s wife. She was indeed beautiful. Widow Guo felt jealous and upset.

With such a beautiful wife, it would not be easy for her to seduce Wei Luan.

However, Widow Guo quickly comforted herself. Wei Luan definitely did not like Lin Yi that much. Otherwise, he would not let Lin Yi do the laundry in such cold weather. Her dead husband used to treat her very well and never let her do any housework.

Thinking of this, Widow Guo revealed a gratified smile.

Widow Guo looked at Lin Yi with a frown before smiling. Lin Yi quickly noticed her and stood up to question Widow Guo’s actions.

After Widow Guo introduced herself, Lin Yi frowned.

She was Widow Guo. Was she the one who seduced Wei Luan at the back of the mountain?
