At this moment, Hu Miaomiao was really confused. She couldn't believe that Qi Mao had really lied to her.
If not, what happened to the woman in front of me?
Li Wan'er looked arrogant and seemed to be satisfied with Hu Miaomiao's shocked look. She said to herself: "My father is a doctor in Dongping Town. After Brother Mao was burned, he spent several years recuperating in my family's medicine hall. I was the master of it." I’m afraid you don’t know about it, right?”
"I……"
"Of course you don't know. You hid after you caused Brother Mao to be burned. Your parents are so cruel that they drove Brother Mao away."
"That's not the case!" Seeing that his parents were being slandered, Hu Miaomiao explained, "My father sent Brother Mao to Dongping Town because there was no doctor who was good at treating burns in the town."
After all, Dr. Li is a well-known doctor who has cured many burn patients.
"Hmph, have you harmed someone? Of course you won't admit it."
Hu Miaomiao felt embarrassed and lowered her head silently, tears welling up in her eyes.
Li Waner was even more proud, feeling that she had overpowered her, and showed off: "I'm not afraid to tell you that Brother Mao and I are in love. I know all about his past, and I also know about the grudges and grudges between him and you, and the affection between us. It’s not your place to intervene!”
"No, Brother Mao likes me!" Hu Miaomiao retorted loudly, holding back tears.
"Humph, do you like you?" Li Waner's face twisted and she cursed: "You are ungrateful. You should have been burned to death and disfigured in the first place!"
Li Waner hated her face so much, hated that she knew nothing but was a carefree rich lady, and hated that she had stolen Qi Mao's gaze.
"To tell you the truth, Brother Mao likes me. Otherwise, why would he accept the purse from me and wear it all the time?"
Hu Miaomiao couldn't hold it back and finally cried, saying sadly: "No, Brother Mao doesn't like you!"
Seeing her crying, Li Waner felt even more proud, "Huh, it's useless if you don't believe me. Brother Mao promised my father that he will take care of me for the rest of his life, and who do you think you are? You dare to let Brother Mao marry me?"
"He got married voluntarily because he likes me!"
"Like you? What kind of spring and autumn dream are you doing?" Li Waner sneered and went too far, "Brother Mao came back to get revenge on you. He was just lying to you, and you asked for it on yourself, and you can't blame others. "
At this moment, Hu Miaomiao felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his face was as white as paper, and he felt that everything in front of him was spinning, and he couldn't help but think of the maid's words.
The maid also said that she was afraid that Qi Mao was not sincere and that he was lying to himself.
Could it be that Brother Mao really hated himself and lied to himself?
"I do not believe……"
The more Hu Miaomiao cried, the sadder she became, and she immediately wanted to ask Qi Mao for clarification.
"Where are you going?" Li Waner grabbed her with such force that Hu Miaomiao couldn't help but scream in pain.
"Let go! I'm going to find Brother Mao, and I'm going to ask him personally!"
Huh, what a joke. How could Li Waner ask her to ask Qi Mao? She threatened in a stern voice: "If you dare to ask, I will reveal everything that happened back then and your parents will be stabbed in the back!"
Outsiders didn't know that the fire on the spot was a big mistake caused by Hu Miaomiao's playfulness. If it was really exposed, it would really implicate Hu's father and Hu's mother. After all, everyone likes to gossip.
Hu Miaomiao was stunned and panicked. She didn't know why this happened or what to do.
Li Waner was very proud and said with a arrogant expression: "Brother Mao likes me and wants to marry me. You stay away from him in the future. Do you hear me?"
However, Hu Miaomiao was still dumbfounded and didn't know if he heard it. He didn't even notice when Li Waner left.
Her heart ached so much, and her vision was blurred by tears.
At this moment, two men walked in front of her, it was Du Yu and Xue Bufang who bought the Longquan Sword yesterday.
They originally wanted to come over and pay back the ten taels of silver they owed, but when they saw Hu Miaomiao crying on the side of the road, they couldn't help but be a little surprised. They thought something had happened to her and hurriedly walked over.
"Miss Hu, are you okay?" Du Yu lowered his head slightly and asked worriedly.
Hu Miaomiao wiped her tears carelessly, but her voice was still hoarse, "Oh, it's you."
Du Yu had a good impression of her, so naturally he didn't want to see her sad and crying, so he asked again: "Miss Hu, are you worried?"
"No……"
She said no, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that she must be very sad, crying until her nose was red.
Du Yu sighed, her words filled with concern, "Miss Hu, if you have something on your mind, why not tell us?"
"Yes, as long as we can do it, we will definitely be able to help." Xue was worried about knowing his friend's thoughts and helped.
Hu Miaomiao hesitated to speak. She couldn't help but think of Qi Mao and Li Waner, and felt even more uncomfortable.
So, she shook her head slightly, but still didn't say anything, but the tears couldn't help falling, making her palm-sized face look even more beautiful, making people feel pity for her.
Du Yu was so distressed that she handed her his handkerchief and said softly: "Stop crying, it hurts your eyes."
Hu Miaomiao was uneasy and took Du Yu's handkerchief in a daze, but it was of no use. After all, she was still thinking about her own worries.
At this time, Qi Mao came and happened to see this overly intimate scene, and his expression suddenly changed.
Hu Miaomiao also saw him, but turned her head away angrily, pretending not to see him.
At this moment, Qi Mao became even more angry. He stopped ten steps away and said in a cold voice: "Come here!"
Hu Miaomiao trembled all over and was immediately frightened, but she endured it and pretended not to have heard what he said.
Du Yu and Xue Bufang turned around and saw a tall and strong man, but half of his face was covered with hideous scars, which looked ugly and scary.
Qi Mao ignored their looks, or in other words, he had long been accustomed to such looks, and only said: "Hu Miaomiao, I asked you to come over."
His expression was so terrifying, as if he wanted to eat someone, and no one would dare to go there.
Hu Miaomiao was really frightened and hid behind Du Yu and Xue Bufang, intending to avoid his eyes.
When Du Yu saw this, he didn't dare to let Hu Miaomiao pass. He frowned and asked, "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
"Who I am is none of your business!" I have to say that although Qi Mao is a blacksmith, he has enough momentum to give way to these two noble men.
"Do you know him?" Du Yu felt something and asked Hu Miaomiao.
"He is the son-in-law my parents found for me..."
Son-in-law? Just someone like him?
For a moment, Du Yu and Xue Bufang were extremely distressed and felt worthless for Hu Miaomiao. After all, how could he, a rough man with a ruined appearance, be worthy of Miss Hu?
You know, Hu Miaomiao is so beautiful that she would have no problem entering the palace and becoming a concubine. Why should she be betrothed to such an ugly man?
Moreover, this man has such a bad temper. If he really marries Hu Miaomiao, he might bully others.
"Miss Hu doesn't want to go there, don't embarrass her anymore." Du Yu had a good impression of Hu Miaomiao and couldn't help but speak for her.
However, Qi Mao didn't take them seriously. When he looked at Hu Miaomiao, his expression became more and more ugly, "I say for the last time, if you still can't come over, then don't come to the iron shop in the future."
Hu Miaomiao was so flustered that she subconsciously wanted to pass, but when she looked up, she saw the purse he was wearing around his waist.
The purse was indeed exactly the same as Li Waner's purse, and it was clearly made by the same person.
So, he really took Li Waner's purse and still wears it?
In an instant, Li Waner's words echoed in his ears, and every word was like a needle pricking into Hu Miaomiao's heart.
For some reason, Hu Miaomiao felt extremely aggrieved and said stubbornly: "I won't go there!"
Qi Mao frowned, looked at her deeply, turned around and left without saying a word.
Hu Miaomiao looked at his leaving figure stupidly, crying miserably, like a daffodil that could not bear the wind and rain, which made people's hearts ache.
