The Chief Minister's Ferocious Wife

Chapter 503: Do You Think You Can Kill Me

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After the Mid Autumn Festival, Zhao Chuchu took Xie Jun back to Lengshui Village.

Xie Jun had no idea that Xie Heng had returned to the village before, nor did Zhao Chuchu know that the Third Prince had already left Yuanjiang County.

The days she spent in the village were peaceful. She even brought the kids fishing and snail catching. It was as if she was avenging her childhood for not experiencing those things.

Zhao Chuchu also visited the Gan clan and taught Madam Luo the proper method to use the fire stove that Old Mr.s Gan had made. She even taught

Madam Luo the recipe for her famous pastry and had the woman try it. It only took Madam Luo one try to succeed.

Zhao Chuchu was utterly jealous of the woman’s talent in cooking. For someone who could make everything taste bad without trying, she could never make the pastry herself.

It didn’t take long for the day of Gan Lin’s wedding to arrive.

A happy mood filled the entire Gan clan that day.

Gan Maosheng and Old Mrs. Gan were smiling all day as Gan Lin was their first grandchild to marry.

Gan Maosheng was a prominent figure in Yuanjing County. As such, there were a lot of guests at the wedding.

Zhao Chuchu did not stop moving that day. She had spent the entire day helping the Gan clan with everything she could and didn’t even have the time to rest a little.

Once the ceremony had ended, Zhao Chuchu finally had the time to take a breather, and the day was almost over.

She had planned to return to the capital city the next day.

Once the guests were gone, she told Gan Maosheng and Old Mrs. Gan that she would leave once the sun was up.

Gan Maosheng was stunned for a second. “So soon? Why don’t you wait for that kid to come back first?”

“Da Lang wrote me a letter saying there’s a hiccup with our business in the capital. He needs me to go back and settle it. I shouldn’t drag this out. Anyway, I’ll be coming back during the New Year too. Let’s have a meal then. It’s only a few months until the New Year arrives.”

Old Mrs. Gan smiled. “You sure are getting senile. Don’t you get it? Chuchu’s here and Da Lang’s in the capital. How can she get used to this? Aren’t you the same when you were younger?

“Ah! I see! Then, be careful on your way back.” Gan Maosheng laughed. “I’m sorry, Chuchu. I might be getting senile indeed.”

“Are you making fun of me, Grandma Gan?” Zhao Chuchu grunted.

“I don’t see anything wrong with it. It’s normal for you to miss your partner,”

Old Mrs. Gan said. “Make sure you come back during the New Year, okay? Also, I hope I get to see you hosting the one-month birthday for your child sometime soon.”

Zhao Chuchu was speechless.

Wherever she went, people kept urging her to get pregnant.

“Grandma Gan, I’m still too young for that!” “Ha ha ha. Well, it’s come naturally.”

Old Mrs. Gan decided not to dwell on that topic.

Zhao Chuchu spent more time with the two old couples before heading into her room to rest.

When the sun had just risen the next day, Zhao Chuchu took Xie Jun to Lengshui Village to pack their stuff. After having lunch, they embarked on their journey back to the capital city.

Everyone was sad to see Zhao Chuchu leave and hoped that she could stay a little longer, but they also understood that Xie Heng was in the capital city and it was wrong to ask her to stay in the village.

After bidding their farewells, Zhao Chuc.hu left the village.

“Sis, do we have to go back?” Xie Jun looked at the villagers seeing them off at the entrance. “I really like it here.”

Zhao Chuchu patted the little boy’s head. “We’ll come back for the New Year, okay? I like it here too, but your brother is alone in the city. We have to go back, or else he’ll get worried.”

“I know. Bro is more important. I also have many questions for him, or I’ll forget them. Say, if bro becomes the provincial graduate, will we be moving to the Imperial City next year?

“Yes. You know how smart your brother is. He’ll definitely make it. We might even have to head to the Imperial City earlier. Since we’re from the south and the Imperial City is in the north, well need to ensure we get used to the new place first.”

“I’ll have to take my exam in a few years too. Once I become a scholar, I’ll take the Provincial Examination and Conference Examination.”

“Then you’ll have to study even harder. The Imperial Examination isn’t that easy.”

“Don’t worry! I’ll not disappoint you and bro!”

Zhao Chuchu smiled.

She understood that Xie Jun would not be able to take the Imperial Examination.

Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng were pacing the path for Xie Jun. Once he reached the end of that path, he would become the one who marked the test for the Temple Examination, and those who did well in the Imperial Examination would become the people who would serve him.

Since Xie Jun was still a young and naive child, Zhao Chuchu could tell that Xie Heng would start to show the ugly side of the world to Xie Jun once they returned.

Unlike how they traveled to Lengshui Village slowly and casually, Zhao Chuchu rushed back to the capital city.

If not for Xie Jun, she would’ve just driven her car and be back by dawn.

Unfortunately for them, their journey back was not as peaceful as Zhao

Chuchu had thought.

They were ambushed at a place known as Songyang Valley.

Zhao Chuchu was able to react quickly and jumped away from danger with Xie Jun and the coachman. On the other hand, the horse was slashed to death by

the attack.

She then turned to stare coldly at the assassins, who were pretending to be armed escorts.

She had to admit that the assassins had gone through a lot to make sure that she didn’t notice them.

It had been a while since Zhao Chuchu had fought and even longer since she last used her supernatural power.

Since someone decided to attack her, she decided to check how much her power had recovered.

“Don’t come out.” Zhao Chuchu pushed Xie Jun and the coachman behind a huge rock while she stood next to it.

The assassins charged at her again.

Xie Jun’s face turned pale, and he yelled, “Watch out!”

Zhao Chuchu had a vicious smile on her face as she said, “You brought this upon yourselves.”

As most of the human body was made out of liquid, a normal human was nothing more like a living bomb to someone who had awakened the aquatic power.

With a grip, a loud explosion could be heard as all of the assassins’ stomachs burst open. The area was quickly dyed red with blood.

They did not die an instant death. All of them looked at Zhao Chuchu with fear in their eyes. None of them could believe that it only took her a single grip to eliminate all of them.

Both Xie Jun and the coachman fainted at the sight of that as well.

“Do you really think you guys could kill me?” Zhao Chuchu chuckled. She realized that she had been keeping herself in check for too long, to the point where people thought she was a weakling who could be controlled.

Although she was only a military doctor in the post-apocalyptic world, she was still feared by many because of her combat prowess.

Being transmigrated to the Wei Dynasty, the peaceful days had made her hide her killing intent, but that did not mean she was a kind-hearted person inside.

“Do you really think I won’t notice all the rest hiding behind the coach? Come at me. Don’t waste my time,” Zhao Chuchu coldly said as she stood on top of the rock.

“You sure are powerful, Mrs. Xie.” Three men came out from behind the couch. The man who looked like their leader had a mask covering his face. He seemed calm enough as if he was not fazed by what Zhao Chuchu had just done.

“Shouldn’t that be a fact by now?” Zhao Chuchu sighed.

“It sure is. Not only are you good at healing people, but you’re also a good fighter. Isn’t staying with the small scholar a waste of your talent? Why don’t you come with me? I can ensure you a luxurious life if you do that..”
