Farmer girl swaps husbands: buys a sickly villain and pampers him

Chapter 154 Adding Firewood
Jiang Yihuan rubbed her aching neck and sat up.

"Where is this place?"

She looked at the dilapidated bamboo hut in front of her with a puzzled expression. Thinking of what had happened before she lost consciousness, she quickly got up from the broken wooden planks and ran to the door, but she couldn't open it no matter what she did.

"Is anyone there? Someone help me... Open the door! Open the door now!" Jiang Yihuan shouted. "Su Yaoguang, I know it's you. Let me out. This is a crime..."

"Help! What are you doing? Help me..."

"Su Yaoguang, I was wrong, I won't do it again, I'll never do it again... Please forgive me! Su Yaoguang..."

"Brother Xiao, save me! Help me... I don't want to be locked up here."

Jiang Yihuan kept banging on the door, shouting as she did so, until her voice became increasingly hoarse.

"Mother... Mother, save me... Mother..."

Jiang Yihuan got up and opened the window, but the window was sealed shut.

The room contained only the wooden bed and some worn-out bamboo utensils. Those things were weightless; it was impossible to use them to break down the door. There were also some smelly clothes; she was nearly suffocated by the stench.

Wait a moment……

Clothes?

This dilapidated bamboo house has clearly been uninhabited for a long time, so how come there are so many smelly clothes?

Jiang Yihuan stared in horror at the clothes and screamed, "Su Yaoguang, you're too cruel!"

Madam Wen fed Xiao Yanci chicken soup. Seeing that he had finished it, she said softly, "Young Master's appetite has been good for a long time. It seems that he will be able to go down the mountain soon."

"Isn't it inappropriate for you to make chicken soup in a Buddhist sanctuary?" Xiao Yanci asked.

The students nearby exchanged glances and simultaneously showed expressions of disgust.

If you really think it's bad, you should say so before eating it, and then don't eat it. Now you've finished the chicken and the soup, and you're starting to reflect on why eating chicken is bad.

“This is a wild pheasant from the mountains. I bought it from a hunter. I didn’t go to the temple’s kitchen; instead, I found a pit in the mountains, cooked it, and brought it over,” Madam Wen said. “Young Master has been ill for so long; you must take good care of yourself.”

"You have a heart."

“It is what I should do.” Madam Wen looked at the door with a puzzled expression. “Strange, why don’t I see Miss Jiang? Young master, could Miss Jiang be lost? I will go and look for her.”

“She’s been on the mountain for quite some time now, and it’s not that hard to find this place, so how could she get lost? She’s still a child at heart, and I’m afraid she can’t handle the hardship of taking care of people. When I see her later, I’ll let her go down the mountain so as not to delay her.”

"Miss Jiang is so sincere in her feelings for you, young master. She must want to stay by your side and take care of you. However, she is still young and doesn't know how to take care of people. I'll teach her. She's so smart, she'll definitely learn it in no time."

Xiao Yanci hesitated for a moment, then acquiesced to her suggestion.

He still believed that Jiang Yihuan loved him. If she didn't love him, she wouldn't have followed him for so many years without any official status in her past life, and even bore him such a lovely child.

However, Jiang Yihuan did not appear until evening.

Wen went to inquire about the situation, but no one knew where Jiang Yihuan had gone. When she returned, she explained the situation to Xiao Yanci, who angrily slammed his fist on the floor.

“Young Master, Miss Jiang might…” “Don’t speak up for her.” Disgust flashed in Xiao Yanci’s eyes. “This is what she calls affection. Ha, how laughable.”

A smug look flashed in Wen's eyes.

That brat is finally gone.

She had to seize this opportunity to let Xiao Yanci know that she was the one who truly cared for him.

At that moment, inside the dilapidated bamboo house, Jiang Yihuan was too weak from hunger to even scream. She thought those people would lock her up here and let her starve to death, but then she smelled the aroma of food.

At this moment, a small bowl was inserted from a small hole on the side, and the bowl contained a bowl of corn porridge.

She quickly grabbed the bowl and reached out through the hole to grab the person who brought her the food, but the person retreated quickly and didn't give her the chance.

She lay on the ground, looked out of the hole, and cried out, "Don't go."

She could only see a man's foot.

"Please tell Su Yaoguang that I was wrong, I'll never do it again, please let me out, I beg you..."

Zhou Wangshu listened to the sounds inside, crossed his arms, and gave a sarcastic look.

This woman is the most deceitful liar in the world. The more pitiful she sounds now, the more ruthless her revenge will be later. Su Yaoguang only said he'd let her wear a patient's coat to scare her. But that's too easy on her. He wants her to fully experience the fear of never knowing what might happen at any moment, and the excruciating, unbearable pain of being infected with the disease.

"I know you haven't left. You're Zhou Wangshu, aren't you? Let me out, please. I'll do anything for you. I... I actually like you a lot. Are you really going to lock me up?"

Zhou Wangshu sneered: "What kind of filthy things dare to gravitate towards me? Do you think your affection is so precious? Only a fool like Xiao Ci would be blinded by a woman with a heart of stone like you. Listen carefully, a woman like you isn't even worthy of carrying Yao Guang's shoes. You should be glad Yao Guang is alright. If she had been hurt, it wouldn't have been as simple as just locking you up here. You should stay here and repent properly. Maybe I'll release you when I'm satisfied."

"You surnamed Zhou, does Su Yaoguang know how vicious you are?" Jiang Yihuan shouted, having lost all hope. "I'm afraid Su Yaoguang has no idea that you locked me up, does she?"

Zhou Wangshu chuckled: "Yes, she doesn't know. I can do this dirty work. She doesn't need to know."

"You're so vicious, aren't you afraid I'll tell Su Yaoguang and she won't like you anymore?"

"Then you'd better come out alive! Miss Jiang, provoking me now is not something a smart person would do. This place is deep in the mountains; even the monks in the temple have completely forgotten about it. What do you think will happen if I don't send you food for a few days?"

"Zhou Wangshu, I was wrong. I won't tell Su Yaoguang. Please let me out. I beg you. After I get out, I'll avoid Su Yaoguang whenever I see her."

"It depends on your performance," Zhou Wangshu said indifferently. "If you repeat to yourself ten thousand times a day that I am a vicious, selfish, and despicable woman, not even worthy to carry Su Yaoguang's shoes, I'll release you if I'm in a good mood."

“Ah…” Jiang Yihuan broke down.

Zhou Wangshu smiled happily: "Say it a few more times, it sounds very nice."

Su Yaoguang was finally able to go out.

She looked up at the sun and said, "So this is what it feels like to be locked up inside to recover! Patients stay in the meditation room for a whole month at a time. It must be so tough for them."

"Boss Su, are you alright?" The villagers who were helping to take care of the patient greeted her happily when they saw her appear.

"Yes, I'm all better now. You've all worked so hard these past few days," Su Yaoguang said.
