Big Bull scooped up Xuexue and placed her beside the small wooden bucket, chasing after her.

“Big Bull, don’t worry about me. I’m going back to rest for a while; you stay in the field and continue watering,” Xuexue said, clearly upset yet not wanting to affect Big Bull, so she kept walking and looked back as she spoke.

“No, I’d rather take you home and come back to water the field; it won’t be too late.”

Big Bull insisted and Xuexue didn’t say anything more, just quietly walked ahead.

Big Bull, carrying the small wooden bucket, followed closely behind.

Madam Xie and several women from the village, engaged in needlework, were sitting in front of the new house, chatting and embroidering, when Madam Xie glanced up and noticed Big Bull and Xuexue coming back one after the other.

“Eh! Big Bull, didn’t you say you were going to the field? How come you’re back so soon?” Xuexue walked quickly ahead, and before she realized it, she had already dashed into the house like a wisp of smoke. Madam Xie stopped her needlework just in time to ask Big Bull.

Big Bull set down the wooden bucket: “The wife is a bit tired, so I brought her back to rest.”

“Oh my! Big Bull really knows how to pamper his wife; Xuexue is lucky to have you.” The women started chattering.

“Indeed, it hasn’t been long since Big Bull joined your family, and he has already built the new house. Even if we saved for a lifetime, we couldn’t manage it!”

The new house of Madam Xie indeed featured blue bricks and red tiles.

Although it wasn’t the finest in Mo Family Village, compared to many ordinary mud-brick houses, it was practically a mansion.

No wonder they were so envious.

“Yes, thankfully Big Bull came to our family, and only then did our days start to improve.”

Madam Xie also greatly appreciated Big Bull, who always protected her and her two daughters. Otherwise, just the Mo family alone could torment them to death.

It was more than just an improvement; a few days ago, the village head took Big Bull and Xuexue and brought back a 10,000 taels silver note from the Yamen. With that amount of silver, he was now the richest in Mo Family Village.

A 10,000 taels silver note, in their eyes, was an astronomical figure, a fortune that several generations could not earn.

“It all comes back to your foresight. When Xuexue was so young, you arranged the betrothal, causing Old Lady Mo to always say you are the Star of Disaster, blaming you for ending her son’s lineage. Now, she has nothing to say, right?”

“That old lady must be green with regret, she should never have spoken ill of you in front of Mo Xiaoqiang, causing him to divorce you.”

Madam Xie didn’t hear anything the women said afterward; she only heard them mentioning the child betrothal between Big Bull and Xuexue and became anxiety-ridden.

Big Bull was a stranger they had picked up from town, his name even coined on the spot by Xuexue, not the betrothed from her parental home nor her nephew.

But she couldn’t let anyone else know about this!,

Otherwise, Xuexue’s reputation would surely be ruined.

The honest Madam Xie couldn’t stand everyone talking at once and quickly stood up: “I still have things to do at home; I’ll go back first, you all continue chatting.”

Having said that, she took her sewing basket and fled in disarray.

The women were baffled, looking at each other: “What’s with her?”

“Who knows with her. We were just talking, and suddenly she’s like this.”

“Could it be that she’s become rich and looks down on us now? Too good to sit with us and do needlework?”

“Don’t talk nonsense; Madam Xie isn’t like that. If she were, would she invite everyone in the village to her housewarming feast?”

“Indeed.”

“What do you mean, indeed? You don’t know a thing, do you? Rich families like to show off; what’s wrong with her showing off a bit?” said one woman, clearly displeased.
