Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2022: Chapter 2021: Sometimes You Have to Be Ruthless

Fen Jiu opened his mouth but ultimately decided to remain silent, unwilling to let his little Lingdang know he’d seen another woman’s body.

He twitched the corner of his mouth, figuring he could simply block Jiao Ling’s view later to keep her from seeing other men.

Bai Ruozhu had no idea her uncle was quietly scheming, nor did she care about seeing long needle scenes. Obviously, even if she saw it, she didn’t mind; what’s ogling at a naked man to a modern woman?

When the three of them found the madam’s room, they immediately heard embarrassing sounds coming from inside.

Fen Jiu hurriedly stopped Jiao Ling, ”They’re not up to any good in there, don’t look.”

Bai Ruozhu glared at him, ”Saving people is urgent, do you plan to wait until they’re finished?”

Fen Jiu looked embarrassed and before he could speak, Bai Ruozhu broke open the door, quickly knocking out the man on the bed and targeting the woman’s mute acupoint.

Only then did she take a closer look these past two days, and it was indeed eye-wateringly awful!

The man was all fat; if cut, he’d probably not bleed but ooze oil. With a pig-kidney face, his features seemed swallowed by flesh due to obesity, making it truly nauseating to behold.

Bai Ruozhu swore she’d avoid seeing fat, not even five-spice pork, for the near future!

Meanwhile, the woman was stunningly beautiful, an aggressive temptation beauty with Peony Flowers tattooed across her bare body, those flowers covering half her body, contrasting against the untouched skin making it even whiter.

Forget Ancient Times, such large-scale tattoos are rare among modern girls; this madam sure was avant-garde.

Jiao Ling, being a woman from Ancient Times, found it overwhelming and quickly averted her gaze, while Fen Jiu twisted his head, refusing to look in that direction.

The madam initially showed panic in her eyes, seeing them act this way, and couldn’t help but carry a hint of smugness, even provocatively glancing at the two.

Bai Ruozhu flicked a dagger to pick up nearby clothes, tossing them onto the woman, ”I unblocked your acupoint, dress yourself, and then take me to see the person you captured today.”

The madam gave a puzzled look, pointing to her mouth.

Bai Ruozhu directly threw a poison pill inside, then unblocked her acupoint, ”You’ve ingested my poison pill, feel free to shout if you want. I won’t mind letting your Peonies wilt here.”

The madam tried to act flirtatious but found Bai Ruozhu resistant, not even a hint of shyness, making her feel rather dull.

”Whom did you capture today? Are you talking about clients? In broad daylight, why would they come? Besides, even if they’re here, it’s by their own will, I’ve never captured anyone.” the madam replied cheerfully, seemingly unconcerned about her situation at all.

Bai Ruozhu waved the dagger, making a shallow cut on her face, enough for Blood Flow.

”You’d better cooperate, or you can forget about keeping your face.” Bai Ruozhu said.

This time the madam’s face changed, touching her face angrily, ”I don’t know what you’re talking about. If you want silver, go ahead and rob. Why harass a lady such as myself? If you’re finding your husband, keep your men in line, don’t blame us.”

”Enough nonsense, where’s the girl you captured today?” Jiao Ling got furious, kicking the madam in the chest, sending her collapsing onto the ground.

The madam clutched her chest, coughing, no longer as composed, crying out, ”Do you people have any sense? I haven’t captured any girl here, stop slandering me!”

”Seems like you don’t want the poison cured, but that’s fine, soon you’ll feel an unbearable itch on your face, itch till your skin comes off. Without your face, with only this Peony Bark left, will any man still touch you?” Bai Ruozhu sneered coldly.

The madam’s face turned drastically; she reached to touch her face, realizing it was indeed itching.

”I really haven’t captured any girl, please spare me!” She cried and scratched her face, looking very miserable, her newly donned clothes torn open again, exposing her snow-white chest.

Jiao Ling looked at Bai Ruozhu worriedly — no confession, could it be them mistaking the situation?

Bai Ruozhu was unsure herself, the madam valued her looks so much, scratching red marks on her face and still reluctant to speak—could it truly not be her who captured them?

But she was always cautious, won’t easily believe due to a few words from the madam.

She took another pill and fed it to the madam, who soon lost focus in her eyes, becoming quiet.

”Did you capture any solo-traveling girl today?” Bai Ruozhu asked solemnly.

The madam’s eyes were vacant, ”Don’t know, need to ask Yang Laosan.”

Bai Ruozhu and Jiao Ling exchanged a look, confirming it was here, the madam indeed didn’t know, as the one responsible for catching people was Yang Laosan.

”Where is Yang Laosan? Where are the women you captured kept?” Bai Ruozhu quickly asked.

”In the Secret Chamber below the firewood room downstairs,” replied the madam.

Bai Ruozhu grabbed hold of her, ”Lead the way, go open the Secret Chamber switch.”

The madam’s actions and voice were lethargic, but once Bai Ruozhu dragged her to the firewood room, she suddenly woke up.

Luckily, Fen Jiu’s eyes were sharp and quick, promptly targeting her mute acupoint.

Bai Ruozhu seized her throat, ”Use your eyes to tell me the location of the switch, otherwise I’ll snap your neck and toss your corpse out as dog feed.”

Finding herself overpowered, the madam was already terrified out of her wits; she didn’t know how it happened, just that she’d eaten a pill, and confessed everything.

She wondered whom she had offended, as Yang Laosan shouldn’t have captured high-status young ladies.

While she was distracted, Bai Ruozhu tightened her grip, the madam felt breathless, chest still aching.

”Have to use tough measures with you, then you’ll obediently comply.” Bai Ruozhu said coldly, tightening her grasp further.

The madam felt she was going to die; though called madam, she wasn’t even thirty yet, frankly unwilling to die so easily. She desperately gestured towards the wall painting; Jiao Ling and Fen Jiu noticed, rushing to find the switch on the painting. Soon enough they discovered, the switch was a nail holding the wall painting, simply pressing it could open the Underground Tunnel.

But who would randomly touch a painting’s nail, especially at such a high position?

Bai Ruozhu secretly nodded, no wonder the firewood room had dilapidated wooden stools, solely for the madam to climb on and press the switch; with her stature, she couldn’t reach the nail otherwise.

The trio rushed into the Underground Tunnel, soon hearing the sound of whips striking the ground.

”Who’s there?” a rough voice shouted, Fen Jiu first struck the acupoint of the speaker, pinning him down to the ground.
