Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2171: Chapter 2169: Tagalong

Feng Cheng’s gaze darkened; so in her eyes, he was just a sneaky person?

He thought that after experiencing life and death together, their feelings would naturally be different, but it turned out he was just being self-indulgent. No, he should have known all along that he was being self-indulgent, yet he couldn’t bear to let her leave.

Bai Ruozhu saw him not speaking, and the nameless anger in her heart slowly subsided.

She shouldn’t have lost her temper like that, just because he wasn’t Achun, which made her disappointed, so she took it out on him, which was really unfair.

”I went to Peach Forest to find you, and you didn’t show up. Did you think there was no need to say goodbye? Did you already decide to follow us?” Bai Ruozhu’s voice softened a bit.

Feng Cheng still didn’t speak, a bit sulking. Bai Ruozhu was speechless, who was following whom after all?

The horse carriage in front had already stopped, and everyone turned around, looking at Feng Cheng from afar, not knowing what was happening.

Jianqi was a bit surprised; he had always thought that Feng Cheng was a Guardian Spirit. At least the Jiuli Clan people said so.

Jinglei, Muyu, and Yizi didn’t know Feng Cheng and were curious about who this person was. Only Little Dengdeng smiled and said, ”Is that Uncle Taohua? I want him to play with me.”

Saying that, Little Dengdeng jumped off the horse carriage and ran in Feng Cheng’s direction.

”Uncle Taohua? What kind of ghost is that?” Muyu murmured.

This phrase was learned from Bai Ruozhu. Muyu was a bit of a joker and found this saying amusing, so he ended up getting addicted to saying it.

Jinglei’s expression changed slightly and whispered, ”Could it be a rotten peach blossom?”

The two exchanged a glance, both a bit worried. Their master wasn’t around, and although they didn’t know why he ran off, the woman he deeply loved shouldn’t be taken away by someone else, especially by such a pretty boy.

So, Muyu gave Jinglei a look and then turned and rushed toward Feng Cheng.

”Hey, what are you doing? Sneaking around following us, you must be up to no good, right?” Muyu moved quickly, suddenly rushing in front of Little Dengdeng and immediately pushing toward Feng Cheng’s chest, trying to scare him.

But the scene he had imagined—the pretty boy being pushed down—didn’t happen. Instead, Muyu was shocked back a few steps and, losing his footing, fell on his buttocks.

Little Dengdeng covered his eyes with his pudgy little hands and said, ”Too lame.”

Jinglei, following behind, was stunned. Although Muyu was a joker, his martial arts skills weren’t bad. Having worked together for years, Jinglei knew this for sure. This Uncle Taohua didn’t move at all, yet he could bounce Muyu back to the ground; this inner strength was terrifying.

Muyu got up from the ground, his face red with embarrassment, angrily asking, ”What do you mean by that?”

”Alright, everyone, don’t make a move.” Bai Ruozhu quickly said. Although her subordinates were hit, which made her a bit unhappy, it was undeniable that Muyu struck first, and Feng Cheng hadn’t even retaliated; she wasn’t unreasonable enough to cause trouble for Feng Cheng.

She glared at Muyu secretly, signaling him not to mess around.

”Uncle Taohua, you’re amazing! Teach me some martial arts!” Little Dengdeng said with eyes brimming with admiration.

Feng Cheng’s mouth twitched, ”My surname is Feng, you should call me Uncle Feng.”

Bai Ruozhu couldn’t help but think to herself, call you Grandpa Feng or Great Grandpa Feng would be more fitting.

”Are you from the Fen Family? Why are you following us?” Muyu asked, somewhat surprised.

Feng Cheng couldn’t be bothered to respond to him, while Little Dengdeng looked at Muyu and said, ”Brother Muyu, you’re too fierce.”

Muyu rubbed his buttocks, aggrieved, ”How am I fierce? He’s the one who hit me.”

”You’re lying; I saw you hit Uncle Feng but didn’t have enough power and got bounced back,” Little Dengdeng said earnestly.

This left Muyu blushing; oh no, being exposed by a child was so embarrassing!

With so many people gathered here, Bai Ruozhu really didn’t want to embarrass Feng Cheng too much, so she reluctantly said, ”Let’s continue on our way.”

Feng Cheng said nothing and just followed along. Bai Ruozhu paused, turning to look at him, ”It would be faster if you went to find someone yourself.”

”I won’t!” Feng Cheng spat out two words and continued to follow, leaving Bai Ruozhu a bit stunned, thinking, why does he sound like a child?

She had no choice but to pull Little Dengdeng onto the carriage, and Yizi hurriedly followed, secretly observing him, feeling very curious. Jianqi was even more curious inside, always looking for a chance to ask Bai Ruozhu whether he was a human or a Guardian Spirit.

The horse carriage continued on, but the team outside had gained an extra person. Jianqi and the others were all on horseback, yet Feng Cheng was just following with two legs, but his movements were so light, he effortlessly kept up from behind.

Bai Ruozhu glanced at him a few times through the crack in the carriage window, shaking her head helplessly. Forget it, let’s just pretend he doesn’t exist.

When it was time to rest, Bai Ruozhu told Jinglei to go hunting and Muyu to start a campfire. She prepared the food, thinking that since they weren’t in a hurry, why continue to suffer eating dried food?

Feng Cheng disappeared in a blink, and Bai Ruozhu glanced around, roughly guessing what he was up to, and sure enough, before long, Jinglei hadn’t returned yet, and he came back with two wild chickens.

”One is my meal, and the other is the processing fee.” His tone was somewhat stiff, his face soured as if he was angry.

Bai Ruozhu was displeased as she took the wild chickens, thinking, I’m not the one who’s angry, I’m the one being followed, alright?

She instructed Muyu to clean the chickens, and by that time, Jinglei had returned, and soon lunch was prepared. Bai Ruozhu cooked some mushroom soup, then roasted the game over the fire, brushed it with her special sauce, and before long, the fragrance wafted out.

Once the game was roasted, Bai Ruozhu first gave Feng Cheng a roasted wild chicken, which was agreed upon earlier.

”Thanks.” Feng Cheng’s voice was very soft. He took the roasted wild chicken and then tore off a chicken leg, handing it to Little Dengdeng, ”This is for you.”

Little Dengdeng happily took it, blew on it, and took a small bite, ”Mom’s skills are amazing!”

Feng Cheng’s eyebrows and eyes carried a bit of a smile, and he nodded slightly.

Everyone ate the game and drank some of the freshly made mushroom soup. They agreed to rest there to digest it before continuing their journey. Unexpectedly, Feng Cheng really taught Little Dengdeng, teaching him several moves in a row.

...

Ever since Jiang Yichun discovered Bai Ruozhu left the Jiuli Clan, he dared not get too close. Before long, he found that she was taking people to Duanyang City, then heading towards the southeast, which was the road to Chengshui Country.

His heart skipped a beat, was Ruozhu coming to find him?

For a moment, his heart felt sweet and a bit excited, but then came worry and pain. He didn’t want her to go to Chengshui Country.

Or maybe she figured out about Tang Feng and was going to find Tang Feng? Jiang Yichun made an excuse for himself, but if she went to Chengshui and found out he hadn’t returned, that those harsh words were just an excuse to avoid her, then what?

Thinking of this, he became a bit anxious, hurriedly sending a message to Gao Deng and heading toward Chengshui.

Gao Deng: (fanning) Son, your wife is about to find you.

Jiang Yichun: Go cover for me.

Gao Deng: Not going; your wife will kill me.

Jiang Yichun: I’ll give you a hundred monthly tickets, will you go?

Gao Deng: Not going, can’t I beg for votes myself? (winks, fans) Ladies and gentlemen, Uncle Gao here is asking for votes, please give some!
