Chapter 1749 - 1744: This Kid Is Really Fierce (First Update)

"Oh my, two lads, please rescue me, please save me..." Mrs. Lin yelled loudly from inside the bamboo basket.

She didn’t even bother to look at who was rescuing her.

"Shuang..." Lu Yuanfeng was just about to ask Mu Shuangshuang what to do when he suddenly remembered that Shuangshuang was currently disguised as Lu Daniu, so he definitely couldn’t call out her name, making it obvious.

"Daniu, this..."

"Just take it off!" Mu Shuangshuang said.

The two worked together to remove the bamboo basket from Mrs. Lin.

Once free, Mrs. Lin instantly sprang back to life.

But when she saw Lu Yuanfeng, she was still surprised for a moment, then said unpleasantly: "Why is it you, boy? Where’s that annoying girl?"

Mu Shuangshuang’s mouth twitched at the words.

As the saying goes, not a family if you don’t enter the same household.

When she met Mu Dazhong and Mu Danian, those two had also said the same thing.

Having just been rescued, the old habit kicks in.

Just a moment ago, she sounded so pitiful!

As expected, a leopard can’t change its spots, that saying is indeed true!

"Aunt from the Old Mu Family, can you speak with some respect? If you want to know where Shuangshuang is, you can ask nicely!" Lu Yuanfeng frowned.

"Ask nicely for what? I want to see that annoying girl!" Mrs. Lin said unpleasantly.

"By the way, who’s this ugly boy?" Mrs. Lin noticed Mu Shuangshuang and asked.

"And who’s this ugly woman?" Mu Shuangshuang retorted.

"You, you, you dare call me an ugly woman?" Mrs. Lin was furious.

"You dared to call me an ugly boy, why can’t I call you an ugly woman?" Mu Shuangshuang replied.

"You’re outrageous, I..."

"Ugly woman, if you keep talking, I’ll sell you to those two traffickers and let you never see the light of day!" Mu Shuangshuang threatened.

"You wouldn’t dare—" Mrs. Lin said angrily, her face flushed.

"Do you want to bet whether I dare or not?" Mu Shuangshuang glared at Mrs. Lin.

She originally thought she’d need to give this aunt a couple of slaps to make her behave.

Unexpectedly, just one threat made her behave miraculously.

She even turned to ask Lu Yuanfeng for help, "Lu Family’s boy, after all, I’m Shuangshuang’s aunt, why don’t you take me to see her!"

Lu Yuanfeng frowned, "Why are you looking for her?"

"An issue as serious as life and death, do you think I can tell you? Hurry up and take me there!" Mrs. Lin urged.

Lu Yuanfeng looked at Mu Shuangshuang, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

Mu Shuangshuang shook her head at him, signaling it was unnecessary to waste time on Mrs. Lin, she could speak if she wanted, and otherwise just leave it.

Understanding Mu Shuangshuang’s intention, Lu Yuanfeng felt more confident, "Just tell us, Daniu and me, where Shuangshuang isn’t! We’re in charge of everything!"

"What? Not here? Where did she go? When will she return?" Mrs. Lin was about to lose it.

Currently, the only one in the Old Mu Family who could help her would be that pesky girl, right?

What to do if she’s gone?

"Don’t know! If you want to speak, speak; if not, we’re leaving!" Mu Shuangshuang said without patience.

"Why are you so impatient?" Mrs. Lin gave Mu Shuangshuang a sideways glance.

"Fengzi, let’s go!" Mu Shuangshuang said.

Saying that, she pulled Lu Yuanfeng to leave.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lin panicked.

She couldn’t stay alone now; if her eldest brother found out, her life was over!

"No, no... I’ll talk! I’ll talk!" Mrs. Lin said.

"Stop wasting time, hurry up and tell us!" Mu Shuangshuang said fiercely.

Mrs. Lin had no choice but to begin speaking reluctantly, but since she wasn’t familiar with the current Lu Daniu, she mostly watched Lu Yuanfeng when speaking.

"Silly boy, I know you and Shuangshuang are as close as brothers! I’m being chased by her big uncle now! He previously tried to sell me, had I not been clever, they might have sold me, and you couldn’t have saved me!" Mrs. Lin said, half truthful.

Mu Shuangshuang replied unkindly, "Probably they thought you eat too much, work too little, and are ugly!"

"You, you’re talking nonsense!" Mrs. Lin’s face turned liver-colored, and her tone of voice clearly lacked confidence.

Lu Yuanfeng, watching from the side, instantly understood what was going on.

He nearly laughed out loud.

But seeing Shuangshuang still putting on a serious act, he forced back his laugh.

"Hmph, don’t you know yourself if I’m talking nonsense?"

Mrs. Lin hadn’t been speechless for a long time.

Even those traffickers couldn’t out-talk her.

But somehow, she found herself lost for words with this ugly man before her.

He gave her a feeling much like that annoying girl.

No, he was even more caustic than that annoying girl!

Could it be, he’s that dead girl’s relative?

"Tell me, are you that dead girl’s relative? Why do you speak just like her?" Mrs. Lin asked.

Mu Shuangshuang paused, then said: "Shuangshuang is my sister, I’m her cousin! Naturally, my temper resembles hers! Unlike you, running your mouth so much, aren’t you afraid of biting your tongue?"

Mu Shuangshuang had disguised herself as a man for so long without being recognized.

Unexpectedly, she nearly got caught by Mrs. Lin today.

Fortunately, this woman is too dimwitted to think deeper.

"Silly boy, are you heading back? Take me with you, I don’t want to be caught by Shuangshuang’s big uncle and sold again!" Mrs. Lin said.

Although less restrictive these past few days, she ultimately hasn’t had freedom.

Mrs. Lin also knew that someone wanting to sell her couldn’t be ruled out.

If she’s really sent to a poor mountain area to marry an old man, she wouldn’t be willing.

So, the only solution was to cling onto that dead girl’s thigh.

Although that dead girl might not be willing, there was no other way, it wasn’t worth sacrificing her self-respect for her pride, right!

Lu Yuanfeng ignored Mrs. Lin.

Mrs. Lin continued asking, "Brat, just say something!"

Lu Yuanfeng remained silent, Mrs. Lin grew anxious.

She turned to ask Mu Shuangshuang beside her, "Ugly boy, are you heading back? Tell aunt here!"

Mu Shuangshuang snorted, "I’ve seen people ask for help, but none as nasty as you! Ugly boy, brat, do you think anyone would want to help you?"

"You’re, you’re simply infuriating!" Mrs. Lin stomped her foot in anger.

Mrs. Lin had seen aggravating people, but never someone so infuriating.

This is completely giving her no alternative to live.

She just didn’t know how to win against this ugly boy.

Mrs. Lin internally cursed the young man in front of her countless times, feeling better before she said: "Lu Yuanfeng, this young man, considering I’m Shuangshuang’s relative, help me out. I promise to repay you abundantly!"

Mrs. Lin was truly out of options, or else she definitely wouldn’t be so humble.

Mu Shuangshuang grinned and said to Mrs. Lin: "You want to return with us?"

"Yes, yes, take me to find Shuangshuang! I will make sure she properly thanks you, I’m her aunt!"

Mrs. Lin spoke as if she were very familiar with Shuangshuang.

Lu Yuanfeng listened, tempted to remind Mrs. Lin that the main person was right beside her, telling her not to sway too much.

However, that didn’t align with his personality.

Lu Yuanfeng said nothing.
