Chapter 32

The Innocent Lu Ze!

“Sister, don’t listen to that old woman!” Du Juan’er gritted her teeth and helped Du Miao’er back while cursing Mrs. Luo, who had just come out to speak.

“How would she know about our difficulties?!

If we don’t think of a way, won’t we be sold by our stepmother?! Wouldn’t that ruin the rest of your life?!

We’ve seen it over the past few days. Although this hunter looks a little ordinary in the entire refugee camp, look at his wealth. Moreover, when has he ever gone into the forest beside the camp and returned empty-handed?!

I can tell at a glance that he’s capable! If you can marry him, it’s better than marrying that old widower, right?!”

Du Miao’er pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. How could she not know that her sister was telling the truth? However, judging from the hunter’s attitude just now, he didn’t seem to care about her at all.

But she couldn’t give up.

She didn’t want to marry that widower, nor did she want to be like the other girls in the camp and sell herself to those military ruffians who didn’t treat them as humans at all!

Therefore, the most suitable candidate was the hunter.

Lin Suisui naturally didn’t know about the two sisters’ plan, but when she saw Lu Ze returning with a gloomy expression, she brought him a thick cotton handkerchief to wipe his head. Then, she turned around to help him change into new clothes, but Lu Ze reached out and stopped her. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m

“Don’t worry, I’ll just roast it by the fire.” Lu Ze threw two pieces of dry wood into the bonfire beside the carriage. With the a cloth covering them, it formed a relatively private space on their side.

Lin Suisui was a little worried when she saw Lu Ze sitting by the bonfire. She wanted to get out of the carriage, but Lu Ze stood up quickly and stopped her. “It’s cold outside. Why go out?”

“Then heat this up and drink a bowl to drive away the cold.” Seeing that Lu Ze didn’t let her get off the bed, Lin Suisui didn’t force him. She only reached out and handed the jar of ginger soup to Lu Ze. “If this rain continues, the temperature will probably drop even more in the next two days.”

Lu Ze was not too worried about this. They had prepared everything, so he was not afraid of any more accidents.

It was just…

Thinking of the scene on the way back, Lu Ze was filled with deep disgust. There were really many people who thought that they were smart and felt smug about themselves!

Lin Suisui knew that Lu Ze had been stopped yesterday. Mrs. Luo, who came to visit the next day, told her.

Although it was still raining outside, Lu Ze and the men from Mrs. Luo’s family still decided to try their luck in the forest at the side. Otherwise, if the rain continued, wouldn’t they be trapped here?!

After the men went out, wouldn’t the women who stayed in the camp become a distraction?!

Lin Suisui’s needlework actually was not bad. Previously, the Sun family had sent over clothes, but there were also many pieces of cloth that had not been used.

Moreover, they were all made of coarse cotton cloth and fine cotton cloth that were very suitable for them. Therefore, when there was nothing to do during this period of time, Lin Suisui took a piece of fine cotton cloth and cut it to make two sets of clothes for Lu Ze and her.

When Mrs. Luo was working, she suppressed her voice and told her everything.

“When those two girls left, they still looked indignant! I’m not worried about your husband’s character, but once girls have bad intentions, they might do anything!

Besides, I took the opportunity to ask around yesterday. The two girls from the Du family are pitiful.

Their mother had passed away early, and their father had married another woman. With a stepmother, their father no longer treated them as well. Now that their family was in a bad financial situation, their mother had targeted these two girls and wanted to match the oldest one with an old widower.

It was said that the old widower had a few taels of silver on hand, but at that age, he could already be Du Miao’er’s father! She’s really ruthless!”

Mrs. Luo couldn’t help but shake her head. Although she sympathized with the sisters, she didn’t agree with their actions. She couldn’t snatch someone else’s husband just because she was pitiful!

How could that work?!

“Thank you for your reminder, but since my husband has already rejected this matter yesterday, I believe they will give up.” Lin Suisui was not too surprised that the two sisters had their eyes on Lu Ze.

Although Lu Ze had hidden his true appearance and identity and was only living as a hunter, his excellence couldn’t be hidden by these superficial things.

She didn’t want to cause trouble, but she was not afraid of trouble!

It would be fine if the sisters stopped here, but if they still refused to give up and continued to pester Lu Ze, she could turn a blind eye if they didn’t implicate her. After all, the final decision was still Lu Ze’s.

If Lu Ze wanted to keep that girl, there was no reason for her to stop him, right?!

At most, they would part ways and live their own lives!

However, although she said it casually, when Lu Ze returned, there was something wrong with the way Lin Suisui looked at him.

Lu Ze was sharp and naturally noticed the change in Lin Suisui today. He put the rabbit on the grill and turned to look at Lin Suisui, who was sewing clothes on the shaft. He asked calmly, “What’s wrong?!”

“Uh, it’s nothing. Mrs. Luo came over today and told me about yesterday.” Lin Suisui didn’t expect Lu Ze to ask directly. For a moment, she was unable to react, but she didn’t hide it and mentioned what Mrs. Luo had told her today.

However, Lu Ze’s attitude was something Lin Suisui didn’t expect.

He frowned slightly and looked at Lin Suisui in confusion. “What is it?”

“… About the two sisters yesterday!” Lin Suisui glared at Lu Ze. Her first impression was that this man was pretending to be confused. She couldn’t help but feel a little angry. She threw the clothes in her hand into the sewing basket and said angrily, “You didn’t forget so quickly, did you?!”

“What do they have to do with me?!” Lu Ze looked at Lin Suisui calmly. “Yesterday, when I came back to help Mrs. Luo, the two of them suddenly approached me from the side. If I hadn’t dodged quickly, I would have been bumped into! ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣o𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

“But since I didn’t bump into anyone, what does it have to do with me?!”
