Chapter 161 Where did the ugly ghost come from?
"It's not advisable to stay here for long, let's leave quickly."
Ji Mo spoke and everyone nodded in agreement.
Li Yaoguang rubbed the two little ones who had just performed a great deed, bit the wrists of the second in command and several others fiercely, and bought time for Ji Mo, then quickly packed up and set off.
However, due to the rain of arrows in front, the mules were restricted by the carriage and could not move, and they were all injured. These two cowards had accompanied them all the way, and Li Yaoguang was really reluctant to let them go. Seeing that the BMW, which had hidden somewhere during the chaos, came back by itself, and also drove back the horse that Ji Mo was riding, which had been frightened and ran away during the fight, Li Yaoguang suggested that the intact horses pull the carriage first to give the mules a rest.
Ji Mo agreed, and was kind enough to apply medicine to the mule. He helped Cheng Su into the carriage and took the driver's position. The dazed Xu Miaoniang was also pulled into the carriage by Yi Ge'er. Li Yaoguang was afraid that the carriage was too heavy and would tire the only remaining horse, so he rode his BMW and drove alongside the carriage.
As we went deeper into Huainan Road and closer to the river, the journey became safer and safer. We saw refugees from time to time, but no Japanese bandits or Hu Di. What made people unhappy was someone's inexplicable attitude.
Ji Mo is a sensitive person and he was the first to notice that something was wrong with Xu Miaoniang.
Some people, when you are down and out, they will lower their chin, never pay attention to anyone, and look at you as if you are a dirty thing. If you look at her for one more moment, her eyes will go blind and she will try to avoid you as much as possible.
Since when did this person start to prefer being close to me?
As they were getting closer to Yangzhou City, they stayed in a hotel for the day. After booking a room, Li Yaoguang took her little cousin, surrounded her aunt, and helped her uncle to arrange their room. She didn't think that Ji Mo, a healthy adult, needed her help.
Seeing how fast she was running, Xu Miaoniang narrowed her eyes with a look of joy in her eyes. She patted Yiger calmly, signaling him to follow Yangger.
Encouraged by his sister, Yi Ge'er called out to his friends and hurriedly followed.
Seeing that all the troublesome people had left, Xu Miaoniang smoothed her hair and gracefully moved towards Ji Mo, who was explaining something to the shopkeeper. After the other had finished speaking, she spoke gently and courteously.
"Doctor Ji, I'm really sorry for leaving you behind. Guangjie is still young, and I didn't think carefully enough to take good care of her. Please don't mind it."
Ji Mo was surprised that Xu Miaoniang would say these things to him. It was totally incomprehensible. He couldn't help but stare at the person in front of him several times, trying to figure out what this person meant.
Xu Miaoniang felt that the other party had heard her words, so she took two steps closer and was about to say more, but Ji Mo shook his head and walked away decisively, not giving her any chance at all.
Xu Miaoniang became anxious upon seeing this, and she trotted after Ji Mo, "Is Doctor Ji angry? Don't blame Guang Jie, she didn't mean it. How about this, I'll take you back..."
Ji Mo, who had already walked several steps away, could no longer bear it, and suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at the person who was chasing him with a mocking look, coldly interrupting someone's monologue.
"Who are you? Do I know you? Do you think you are someone I recognize? Can an outsider like you make random comments about someone I recognize? Who do you think you are?"
Xu Miaoniang was stunned, her face suddenly turned pale, she covered her chest with her hands, with a look of disbelief, "Doctor Ji, how could you do this!"
"How am I?"
There are only three kinds of people in his life creed: relatives, patients, and enemies. The person in front of him is not even a patient. Why is he complaining to him? "Xu Miao Niang, right? Stay away from me next time. I hate people like you the most."
Xu Miaoniang was too embarrassed to hold back her pride and burst into tears. "You, you, are too much! If you hadn't given me the hint first, I would have..."
"What are you talking about? This is ridiculous! A person like you can't even hide from me, and I'm giving you hints? Are you okay?"
Xu Miaoniang was also so angry at Ji Mo's attitude that she blurted out some things she shouldn't have said. "I'm ridiculous. Do you dare to say that you asked Aunt Cheng to be your curtain because you were afraid that her appearance would scare me?"
"Huh?" Ji Mo was so angry that he laughed, as if he had heard a huge joke, and his breath instantly turned cold.
"I don't even want to know your name, and I'm covering your face for you? How can you be so self-indulgent! I warn you, I'm not someone you can fool! Put away your little thoughts, don't act like a demon, don't hurt others, otherwise... Humph! You will know what is really excessive, I guess you have also seen with your own eyes how I go in with a white knife and come out with a red knife, right?"
Ji Mo dropped the threat and avoided it with a look of disgust as if it was a dirty thing. He left so cleanly and decisively without even looking at the furious Xu Miaoniang.
Looking at Ji Mo's cruel departure, Xu Miaoniang clenched her teeth in anger. She didn't care about the fingertips piercing her palms. Her heart was filled with anger and injustice.
Why? Why do these people bully me and look down on me?
It was obviously him who showed it first!
Besides, if I want to live, is it wrong to want to find a handsome and powerful backer?
In this chaotic and cruel world, as a weak woman, do you think she is willing to be so humble and compromise?
She is also the daughter of a good family. If she had not lost her parents, she would still be the envied young lady of a scholar family. Do you think she is willing to live in such a miserable and shameless way? It's all because of this damn world!!!
Xu Miaoniang was shaking with anger and grievance, and her tears were falling uncontrollably. She was really sad and looked so weak and pitiful.
It happened that Yi Ge'er, who had gone to the guest room to settle down, didn't see his sister catch up for a long time. The little guy became anxious and subconsciously ran back to find his sister. As a result, he saw his sister's pitiful appearance as soon as he arrived. Yi Ge'er hurriedly ran up and took Xu Miao'niang's hand, but found that his palm was pierced and bleeding, which made Yi Ge'er cry anxiously.
"Sister? Eldest sister? What's wrong with you? Eldest sister, what's wrong with you? Don't scare Yier, eldest sister, wuwuwu..."
This was the passage leading to the guest rooms in the backyard of the inn. The crying of the brother and sister still attracted attention even though the inn had few guests due to the war.
The shopkeeper was afraid that he would not serve the guests well enough and make them dislike staying in his house, so he went forward to show concern. Not only that, he also thoughtfully sent his waiter to the backyard to call people, for fear that they would be neglected.
Li Yaoguang, who was busy settling his family in the house, frowned when he heard this, thinking, could it be that in just a short while, the brother and sister were bullied?
Just as she was about to go and check the situation, she was stopped by Ji Mo who had just arrived, "Wait, Guang Xiaomei, don't leave yet, I have something to tell you."
"What are you talking about?" Li Yaoguang wondered, thinking to herself, Brother, why are you wasting time at this time? However, Li Yaoguang was very dissatisfied with the title of "Little Sister Guang", but because of someone's death, she had to accept this title.
Cheng Su, who was standing by, saw Ji Mo stopping Li Yaoguang, and thought that something might have happened to the children. He was also worried about Xu Miaoniang and her siblings. After thinking for a while, he patted his busy wife and motioned her to go and check. Yu Meixue stopped the work in her hands, took Yang Ge'er, who was also worried about his friends, and followed the waiter out.
After the people walked away, Ji Mo started to remind Li Yaoguang, "Little sister Guang, you are a good person, but you don't have a good eye for people. You have to be more careful with Xu Miaoniang."
Li Yaoguang: "What do you mean?"
Ji Mo was very concerned about his reputation. He couldn't say that Xu Miao Niang was stupid and treated him like fat meat like those crazy women who had come after him in the past and wanted to make a move on him, as if to show how vain she was.
And that guy even said that he secretly liked her? Bah! It's such a shameful thing, it's hard to say it, so Ji Mo considered it carefully.
"During this trip, I saw that the man was extremely selfish and thought too much. He looked weak and pitiful, but he was very ambitious and had a sharp mind. He was not like you, a fool. You were too straightforward and helped others count the money even when you were sold. It's not a good thing to be too loyal."
"No, big brother, I don't mean to attack anyone personally. And you came up and said something bad about the girl for no reason. Did you have a conflict just now?"
