C21 Don't Underestimate Your Opponent

"Yi Shuang, don't be like this, it's not that I'm not telling you, but I'm not too sure about his intentions. I only know that he's from the capital, and his identity is unknown even to the village chief, but the village chief is extremely afraid of his identity. Yi Shuang, how do you know about this person?"

Xia Yiyi said, "I'm just curious. After all, he unintentionally saved my life. Isn't it natural for him to know the name of his savior?"

Xia Chun nodded and did not doubt Xia Yiyi's words.

"Yi Shuang, if we release the phoenix like this, I'm afraid that once she goes back, she will definitely take revenge. I'm afraid that the two of us won't be easy to deal with." Xia Chun said his worries.

"What? Scared?" Xia Yiyi said as she looked at him with her clear and bright eyes.

Since when had Xia Yiyi not known that letting the phoenix go might cause trouble? It was just that Feng Lai could not die yet, otherwise, the two of them would not be able to escape.

However, Feng Lai was not a person to be feared. What she most wanted to know was why Tuoba Jing had suddenly returned to Xia Family Village. What was the purpose of his return?

Xia Chun shook his head, "Feng Lai is nothing to be afraid of, it's just that the village head dotes on this daughter-in-law very much. In addition, she has added two men to the village head's family, if she makes up nonsense in front of the village head, the village head will not make things difficult for you on the surface. I'm afraid only the village head will find things difficult in the dark.

Xia Yiyi pondered for a moment, but wasn't as scared as before. She sweetly said: "Even if the village chief is in a difficult situation, Big Brother Xia should be able to protect me, right?"

Xia Chun was stunned for a second before he gave a silly grin and nodded his head vigorously, "Of course, you are my future wife, I will definitely protect you well."

Xia Yiyi only smiled.

After hearing Feng Lai's explanation, Xia Yiyi finally relaxed and realized that her back was covered in a layer of sweat.

At this moment, an untimely sound echoed from her stomach.

Hearing this, Xia Chun patted the back of his head in frustration and said, "Look at me, I forgot to give you the chicken soup to drink. After drinking it, you'll be able to drink the medicine."

When the bowl of warm chicken soup entered her stomach, Xia Yiyi felt as if all of her strength had returned.

"Big Brother Xia, did you eat it?" Xia Yiyi wiped the soup from the corner of her mouth and asked.

"There's still a little bit left in the pot, I'll go drink it later." Xia Chun tidied up the room and helped Xia Yiyi to sleep: "Yi Shuang, go to sleep. Drink some medicine later."

Thinking of the bitter taste of the medicine, Xia Yiyi felt that her mouth was astringent: "Brother Xia, can you stop drinking the medicine?"

Xia Chun looked at her and firmly shook his head.

Xia Yiyi pursed her lips, unable to get rid of the taste of traditional Chinese medicine.

"Yi Shuang, are you feeling better?" Seventh Aunt, who couldn't wait to set a torch for Xia Yiyi just a moment ago, actually came over with a bowl of fish soup. When she entered the room, she first placed the fish soup on the table, then walked over to the bed with a smile on her face. She looked at Xia Yiyi very warmly, as if she was an elder looking at a junior.

Xia Yi bent down and smiled like a snake and said, "I'm much better now. Aunt, I wonder what business you have with me?"

Seventh Aunt slapped her thigh and pretended to say, "Hai! "Aunt Seven was in the wrong, so she called so many villagers to beat you up. Aunt Seven is here to apologize. I heard you got the cold, so she boiled a bowl of fish soup and sent it to you to nourish your body."

Xia Yiyi naturally knew that this woman wasn't just here to send her fish soup. If she had wanted to do it for her own good, she wouldn't have been so positive in proposing to burn her to death.

Even if this was an ancient village, she didn't dare to think that these villagers were ignorant. No matter where or when, underestimating her opponent was simply courting death.

"Thank you, Seventh Aunt." Xia Yiyi said politely.

Seventh Aunt changed the subject and returned to proper business.
