Becoming the Villainess: I Dominate the Cultivation Realm with My Wok! Chapter 46: Zhao Village

"Isn’t that Zhao Ergou? Who’s the girl behind him? She’s so beautiful, and she’s got two kids with her. Could it be so romantic debt from his past?"

There’s nothing new in the village, so when strangers co in, they beco the center of attention.

"Pssh, Zhao Ergou? I think he got into so trouble and was chased back here! Didn’t you notice how oddly he’s walking?"

Chen Muxue can calmly accept everyone’s stares and overly loud whispers. After all, she used to be linked to internet celebrities, so she’s experienced all kinds of comnts and speculations.

But Changfu and Changgui couldn’t quite handle it. Changfu’s dark complexion didn’t show it much, but Changgui’s face was flushed, and he tugged at Chen Muxue’s clothes, sowhat evasively.

"Why does that boy look familiar?"

Finally, soone focused their gaze on Changfu’s face.

"Which one? Let see... It does seem a bit familiar!"

Zhao Ergou lowered his head. When he sold Daifu back then, he was criticized by the villagers, but since it was his nephew, others couldn’t say much.

Back then, he was quite proud, getting sothing for nothing without raising the child. For soone like him, naturally he was pleased.

But now, if the villagers found out that Daifu had returned, and in this manner...

Zhao Ergou prayed in his heart that no one would recognize Daifu.

However, things did not go as he wished. Soon, a villager exclaid in surprise, "Oh my! Isn’t that Daifu!"

Although Changfu was from Zhao Village, his family was simple, honest, and not talkative, so they weren’t deeply connected with the villagers. Every New Year or festival, he didn’t even know what to call people unless they were a few neighbors.

At this mont, he had pretty much forgotten, so when soone recognized him, he could only cup his hands politely at the person.

"Daifu? Wasn’t Daifu sold by Zhao Ergou?"

"He’s back, rich and successful? Look at that girl, she seems like soone from the city. Did she gain favor from her master and co back for revenge?"

"City person? As if. Look at her clothes, just like that, and she’s carrying a pot. How could she be from a wealthy family?"

Hearing this, a villager excitedly clapped their hands, "Oh my! A beautiful girl carrying a pot, isn’t that the Sect Leader of the Qian Ding Sect? It’s been the talk of the town. Haven’t you heard? Even the shopkeeper in the tavern couldn’t do anything against her. You know that shopkeeper has backing!"

"Qian Ding Sect? That’s a cultivation sect? And she’s the Sect Leader! Daifu has really achieved sothing great!"

The villagers’ eyes suddenly lit up fervently, and one by one they followed behind Chen Muxue’s group, eager to see what was going on.

Zhao Ergou finally hesitated and stopped in front of a small courtyard. Chen Muxue took one look and snorted, "This is it? With blue bricks and green tiles, the house is quite nice. Doesn’t seem like they’re short of money at all?"

"Zhao Ergou may love gambling, but his wife manages the money. Even the debt collectors can’t do anything about her!" a villager shouted.

Zhao Ergou glanced at the person, his eyes darkening, while another villager pulled the speaker back. "What are you doing stirring up trouble with him?"

Chen Muxue didn’t expect soone to be thinking like this at a ti like this, and she couldn’t help but sneer, "Go get the money and repay the debt."

"Repay the debt? What debt! I don’t acknowledge it! This house is all my dowry. If you want money, go find him!"

The courtyard’s main door suddenly slamd open, and a shrewish-looking woman stood guard at the doorway with her hands on her hips, holding a kitchen knife in one hand.
