Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ding Yong rushed back from the neighboring village in the evening. Gong Baoxia looked at Ding Yong with tears in her eyes. She went forward to hug him tightly.

There was a hint of a smile in Ding Yong’s tone as he whispered, “What’s wrong? It’s only been a day. Did you miss me so quickly?”

Ding Yong stroked her head and looked at the new firewood in the yard. He was a little surprised. “Ah, who chopped all these new firewood? Is father back?”

Gong Baoxia looked up and was about to say that it was Mother Ding who asked her to chop them, she heard Mother Ding’s voice. “Aiyo, what are you doing? Do you feel so wronged just because I asked you to chop some firewood? Those who don’t know will think that I’ve mistreated you. Are you complaining to my son?”

Ding Yong’s mother walked out of the house with Gong Baoxia’s freshly prepared food in her hands. Ding Yong frowned when he heard this. He quickly looked at Gong Baoxia’s hand. Indeed, her entire palm was covered in red blood from the abrasion of the broken skin. It looked terrible. Ding Yong frowned. He could not bear to look at Gong Baoxia.

Ding Yong looked at Mother Ding but did not dare to raise his voice. “Mother, Baoxia is a girl. How can you ask her to do heavy work?”

Mother Ding was stunned for a moment before she shrieked, “Aiyo, they really say that a son has forgotten his mother after marrying a daughter-in-law! It’s only been a few days, and I only asked her to do a little bit of work. Your father is not at home. Are you blaming me now?”

Mother Ding shouted. Ding Yong quickly went forward and held Mother Ding’s arm, there was a hint of guilt in his tone. “Mother, it’s not like that. I was just asking. I didn’t say anything.”

Ding Yong tried his best to comfort Mother Ding and completely ignored Gong Baoxia.

Gong Baoxia looked at the scene of the mother and son’s deep love and frowned. She felt a sharp pain in her heart and turned her head to walk out. Ding Yong quickly stopped her. “Baoxia, where are you going?”

Gong Baoxia did not turn her head. She tried her best to maintain her normal tone. “I’m going out for a walk after dinner. Hurry up and eat.”

After saying that, Gong Baoxia walked out of the courtyard without waiting for the two of them to react. Ding Yong hesitated for a moment but did not chase after her.

Ding Jun had the habit of going out for a walk after dinner. Chen Zhiguo was worried about her walking at night, so the two of them went for a walk together. Unexpectedly, they saw Gong Baoxia squatting and curled up under a big tree.

“Sister-in-law?” Ding Jun said, a hint of surprise in her tone. Gong Baoxia quickly wiped away her tears when she saw Ding Jun.

“Ding Jun…”

Ding Jun’s tone was a little concerned. “What happened to you? What happened?”

Gong Baoxia was initially stammering and trying to hide the truth, but it seemed that she could not hold it in anymore. She cried out, “I used to think that Ding Yong was honest, dull, and kind-hearted. Only today did I realize that he’s a man who has no opinions and is too timid. He only listens to his mother.”

Gong Baoxia’s words were so vague that Ding Jun could roughly guess what was going on. She shook Gong Baoxia’s hand. “Sister-in-law, I have been my mother’s daughter for more than ten years. I know her better than you do. She is a person who doesn’t listen to reason. Don’t be afraid of her. As long as you sit upright, don’t be afraid of her. If she makes things difficult for you, you resist. If she scolds you, you argue with her. If she hits you, you fight back. Don’t let her bully you. Don’t worry about Ding Yong getting angry. He’s a person with no opinions. Whether Mother Ding has the upper hand or you have the upper hand, it doesn’t make any difference to him. You can try.”

Gong Baoxia was dumbfounded for a moment. She did not seem to expect Ding Jun to say such a thing. In her opinion, Ding Jun should speak for her family. She was more or less an outsider. However, now, Ding Jun was speaking from her own point of view. 

A warm current surged through her heart. Gong Baoxia shook Ding Jun’s hand, and her tone was filled with gratitude. “I will try it in the future.”

Ding Jun nodded with a complicated expression. “Yes, yes. It’s dark now. It’s not safe outside. You should go back quickly.”

Gong Baoxia nodded. “Yes.”

Ding Jun and Chen Zhiguo looked at each other. Chen Zhiguo shook Ding Jun’s hand even harder. There was a hint of a smile in the man’s voice. “So that’s how you are, Ding Jun.”

This little woman always seemed to be able to surprise him.

Ding jun smiled lightly and did not say anything.

The next day, Ding Jun set up the cake stall at the entrance of the courtyard as usual. It was almost afternoon. The sun was about to set, and there were fewer customers who came to buy cakes.

Ding Jun was just about to get up and close the stall when another man came. “Give me a piece of egg yolk pastry.”

“Okay.”

The man’s eyes were shifty as he sized up Ding Jun’s exquisite figure and swallowed his saliva silently.

Ding Jun packed the cake and did not find anything strange. However, when she reached out to take the money, the man grabbed her hand! A hint of panic flashed across Ding Jun’s eyes, and she instantly raised her voice.. “What are you doing?”
