Country Beauty 792, Main Text 792 A Strong Flavor 792 Chapter A Strong Flavor "What are you doing?" Lu Yun leaped onto the bed with lightning speed, instantly wrapping his arms around the elderly Wang lady who was about to commit suicide. "Let go of me! If you don't return the book, I'll die!" cried the old lady. "Alright, alright! I'll return the book right away. Just don't act so dramatic—I can't stand it anymore!" Lu Yun quickly handed the book to the elderly woman. "What are you holding onto me for? Are you trying to take advantage of me?" Master Wang snatched the book from Lu Yun's hands, cradling it like a precious treasure, yet noticed that Lu Yun was now embracing her, with his hands positioned in a most unusual way. Lu Yun was suddenly startled, feeling an unexpectedly soft sensation spreading through his palms—a sensation both familiar and yet distinctly different from what he had felt before. He instinctively grasped and released his hands twice. Hmm... Master Wang suddenly gave out a soft, muffled sound. Lu Yun jolted, realizing that he was now holding her two breasts, and that his fingers were precisely pressing against the two small bumps above them. He could feel, as he gently massaged them, that the two raised points were gradually becoming more responsive. "I didn't mean to—well, I just didn't want you to die. I was so panicked, I rushed over without thinking about anything else," Lu Yun said,慌 Slightly embarrassed, letting go of her hands. "What's wrong, Xiao Yun?" Master Wang asked. At that moment, Hua Zi, who had just been helping Lu Yun build the walls of the thatched toilet, walked into the house. When Lu Yun was helping Old Wang return to the house, Hua Zi noticed Lu Yun, but at first didn't think much of it—only assuming that Lu Yun had kindly brought Old Wang back. However, upon hearing a commotion inside, he realized the two were arguing and came over to see what was happening. Lu Yun quickly explained, "Don't worry. On the way back, I met Old Wang and brought her here. Hua Zi uncle, go ahead and take care of the wall construction—I'll have the beer ready soon, and I've also bought some snacks. Please make sure to finish building the walls." Hearing about the beer, Hua Zi immediately smiled and said, "Alright, I'll go then. Just let me know if you need anything." Lu Yun nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at grain. When Hua Zi stepped out of the room, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, silently exclaiming: Good thing—what if Hua Zi had seen him carrying Old Wang? Lu Yun then spat out, for heaven's sake, this was ridiculous! He had "Once Huazǐ had left, Lu Yun finally exhaled a deep breath. But before he could fully catch his breath, he blushed instantly when Wang Old Lady asked him, sitting on the bed and saying, 'I didn't mean to do it on purpose. If you hadn't been about to collapse and die, how could I have held onto you, grabbed you there?' Wang Old Lady sat up straight, her earlier expression of dazed and bewildered completely gone, now smiling warmly at Lu Yun, 'Whether intentional or not, you've certainly made contact. How does it feel?" Lu Yun was taken aback, glanced at Old Mrs. Wang, and saw that the woman’s face had already regained its usual composure. At once, her heart pounded and she said, “Not really, I didn’t feel anything. I’ve got other things to attend to. I’m off!” Saying that, she jumped off the bed and dashed out. Good heavens, was Old Mrs. Wang really trying to make a move on her? The way she spoke was so suggestive, and she had almost lost her composure. Xiao Xiong, her younger brother, looked up in protest. “Hey, what’s wrong with you? Aren’t you going to see what’s in the book I’m holding?” Seeing Lu Yun about to leave, Old Mrs. Wang immediately stepped in—just moments ago, when Lu Yun had caught her chest, two peanuts had already stiffened. How could she let Lu Yun go so easily like that? Lu Yun had already seen the book's cover—it was so captivating that he wouldn't have hesitated to grab it and rush off right away. Now that the book was firmly in Wang Old Lady's hands, he felt a natural curiosity and paused to ask, "You'd like to see it, wouldn't you? But will you let me take a look at it?" Wang Old Lady seemed deep in thought, then smiled promptly and said, "Why not?" "Will you worry that I'll take the book and run with it?" Man, just by looking at the cover, Lu Yun was certain the content would surpass even his own cherished copy of 'Tea and Dinner Conversations.' Previously, Wang Old Lady had gone to great lengths to insist on having the book—now she was so generous as to hand it over so willingly? Lu Yun sensed a hint of conspiracy, but what could an old lady possibly do to him? Calming himself, curiosity finally triumphed over reason, and he stayed. Old Wang smiled, "If you run, I'll die—and when I die, I'll leave a will stating that it was you who killed that old man. See how long you can keep running!" Huh, that's plain, open-ended intimidation. Lu Yun rolled his eyes, "How did you suddenly snap out of it?" Lu Yun had always been curious—this old lady's transformation was surprisingly swift. In the blink of an eye, she went from frantic to fully composed. Was it the book that had stirred her? Old Wang, seeing Lu Yun staring at her with genuine confusion, said, "You're the one who's crazy. When did I ever go mad? I merely pretended to be unwell because I couldn't match that girl's strength. You really think her mere skills could actually scare me senseless?" Lu Yun went pale with shock—this woman truly was the most headstrong in the entire village, and her cunning had reached a level that was simply beyond belief. She huffed angrily, "So, what exactly do you want?" Old Wang chuckled, a sly smile playing on her face, "I just want to take a look at whatever's tucked inside your pants." "Oh?" Lu Yun gasped suddenly, convinced his ears had failed him, and asked in astonishment, "What... what did you just say?" Old Wang remained calm and composed, saying, "I said, I want to take a look at whatever's tucked inside your pants." This time, Lu Yun finally believed he hadn't misunderstood. Could it be that a woman of nearly fifty years old would actually want to see what was hidden in his crotch? That was absolutely insane. "Are you serious? You're practically my grandmother now, and you're saying this? Do you even feel ashamed?" Lu Yun blushed slightly, his tone laced with disdain. Old Wang didn't care at all about Lu Yun's condescension. She slowly got off the bed, walked to the door, glanced out, saw Hua standing busy stacking bricks on the wall, and then casually closed the door: "Didn't you think of anything? When you were holding me just now, where did you grab me? Can't you just let me go without a word? It's a matter of courtesy—let me take a look at your manhood down there, and I'll have you leave right away. Otherwise... hehe, you know what I mean." Lu Yun was practically ready to go crazy. He had come to save someone's life, only to find himself ensnared in this old lady's scheme—indeed, it was beyond bearable. He snapped, "You go ahead and invent whatever you like! I don't have time to waste with you old lady's antics!" He strode over to Old Wang and reached for the door handle to make a swift exit. "Hey! You've already grabbed me—do you expect to walk away with nothing? Besides, there's no one else in this room, really. Just "Old Wang kept staring at Lu Yun, seeing that he still had no intention of giving in. She continued, 'My second son's hands were seriously injured by you. Without at least a thousand or eight hundred yuan, he won't recover. What do you think would happen if I told my third uncle and aunt about this—would they be able to come up with that much money?' Lu Yun was furious. He was no ordinary young man—he had been completely intimidated by an old lady who had merely gently pressed on him. If this were to become public knowledge, how would he ever manage to marry in the future? 'By heaven! You're not even giving me the courtesy of a proper greeting—just a few gentle touches, and now you're demanding I believe that?' And your younger brother's hand—how could they even spare it? If they had to pull out his very eyes, that would be no exaggeration. Lu Yun, now furious, no longer cared about hierarchy at all. The old Mrs. Wang had come across so unreasonable from the start, treating her as if she weren't even a senior figure. Lu Yun naturally had no need to be polite to her. Mrs. Wang clearly anticipated Lu Yun's reaction. She chuckled softly, with a pleasant, composed smile, saying, "You're indeed annoyed. Very well, then—go on, just go back. But your uncle and your aunt seem to have pushed a cart out of the village, and it appears someone is being carried on the cart. My dead father-in-law, being curious, has followed your uncle and aunt out of the village. He hasn't returned yet." As she spoke, a gentle, knowing smile played on Mrs. Wang's face, and she studied Lu Yun carefully. Lu Yun was startled—how could this woman have sent her own dead father-in-law to follow her uncle and aunt? That meant they must know the person on the cart was Lin Shu. Lu Yun fell silent suddenly, her mind racing, weighing the pros and cons If we agree, we can have them keep quiet and closely watch over the movements of the third uncle and third aunt, preventing Er-tu to bother them. But if we agree, will this village's most restless old lady—so famously restless—develop any unusual intentions toward me? After all, my own resources are truly strong; aside from Li Qiaozi, who's a rather dull fellow, no one in the village can compare. Should she take notice and her restlessness grow, how shall I handle it? Lu Yun's thoughts kept swirling, and he went over every possible concern, yet still found no satisfactory solution—either agreeing or declining left him deeply uneasy. "What's the matter? Are you really at a loss?" Wang Old Lady observed Lu Yun's shifting expressions, and chuckled warmly. "What could you possibly fear? Can a woman of my age really eat you up?" Don't worry, I'll make sure you don't suffer. For every glance I give you, I'll take off a garment—two glances, and I'll shed two! Land, Lu Yun's heart skipped a beat. It was clear this old lady was determined to get something going between them. Though Lu Yun enjoyed such things, he hadn't quite reached the point of being willing to engage in them with an elderly woman. He decided to bolt—whatever the old lady said to his uncle and aunt upon meeting them, he'd just explain the situation when the time came and go with the flow. As for Wang Er's hand, that was entirely his own doing. He'd simply have to accept whatever fate brought. Country Beauty 792, Main Text 792 – A Hearty, Bold Flavor – Updated!
