While Zhang Tiantian's uncle and his son were talking, Xiao Rong held Zhang Tiantian up.

Zhang Tiantian's lips were a bit purple and she looked pale.

The village head looked at both sides and said to Zhang Tiantian after a hesitation, "Tiantian, your uncle didn't intend to occupy your house. Please forgive him."

Zhang Tiantian immediately got that the village head was on her uncle's side.

She argued angrily, "But we live in our house! It's fine that my uncle lived in my house when I was away. But it's unacceptable to make any changes about my house!"

She needed an explanation for why her house was transformed into a pigsty.

The village head also felt it tricky.

Zhang Tiantian became mad when she noticed that the village head couldn't give her an explanation, "Living in my hometown is the reason why I came back from Beicheng. I had a house here, but now it's a pigsty. Do I have to live in the pigsty ever since?"

The village head knew that he had to find Zhang Tiantian a residence.

He looked at Zhang Tiantian's uncle and asked for his opinion, "Well, Tiantian has no place to stay now. You need to do something about it."

Zhang Tiantian's uncle knew that he had to find Zhang Tiantian a place to stay.

Considering the village head had no other option, Zhang Tiantian's uncle nodded, "Fine. How can I let my niece have no place to stay? She can live in my house."

Zhang Tiantian frowned.

The village head felt happy about the solution, "Good."

"No way!"

Zhang Tiantian refused it seriously.

The village head frowned again, "But you have nowhere else to stay."

Zhang Tiantian looked at her uncle's fat face.

She knew clearly that her uncle was a hypocrite.

In the public, he invited her to live in his house and treated her nicely.

But after she and Xiao Rong really moved in, they would get bullied and even beaten.

After all, his family was mean, including her aunt who was a shrew.

So, she would never live in his house.

"No?" Zhang Tiantian's uncle planned to let them work in compensation for their living fees, but Zhang Tiantian turned down his offer, "Why are you unhappy with living in my house?"

Zhang Tiantian looked at the village head, "My uncle's house is not too spacious. It's not convenient for us to move in."

The village head knew that Zhang Tiantian's uncle had his own plan.

Even he allowed Zhang Tiantian to move in, he would exploit them.

If Zhang Tiantian refused to move in, he wanted to know her thoughts.

"Where do you plan to live if you refuse to live in your uncle's?"

"I want to live on the mountain."

"On the mountain?"

The village head and Zhang Tiantian's uncle were surprised.

They couldn't understand Zhang Tiantian's idea.

"Yes, I want to live on the mountain." Zhang Tiantian said clearly, "Xiao Rong and I want to live in the forest cabin on Niuling Mountain."

The village head looked at Zhang Tiantian's uncle.

Zhang Tiantian's uncle sneered, "Think about it, my niece. There's no one else. What if anything bad happens to you?"

The village head looked at Zhang Tiantian and Xiao Rong and ridiculed, "It's nice for young couples to live in quiet places, but that place is away too quiet. What if anything bad happens..."

"What can happen to us?"

Zhang Tiantian asked the village head.

Zhang Tiantian's uncle looked at Xiao Rong coldly, "Nobody can foresee it."

Zhang Tiantian was very straightforward, "I was beaten by my uncle's family on my first day home. If I live in the forest cabin on Niuling Mountain, nobody can hurt me."

Zhang Tiantian's uncle was mad, "What are you talking about? Are you worried that I might kill you there?"

Zhang Tiantian saw that her uncle was about to hit her.

She didn't step back, instead, she talked to the village head, "Can you see it, sir? My uncle wants to hurt me! If anything bad happens to me, he's the culprit!"

The village head knew that Zhang Tiantian's uncle was hot-tempered and bossy.

But he wouldn't let Zhang Tiantian's uncle hurt her in front of him.

He had to behave like a village head.

He glared at Zhang Tiantian's uncle and scolded him, "Are you done here?"

Zhang Tiantian's uncle was scolded.

He knew that he couldn't hit anyone in front of the village head, so he stopped.

The village head made the decision for Zhang Tiantian's uncle, "The forest cabin was built by our village. Now it's empty. If you want to live there, feel free to move in."

Zhang Tiantian felt relieved after the village head agreed on it.

She preferred to live on the mountain rather than live in her uncle's house.

It was worse to get bullied.

Zhang Tiantian's uncle knew that it was useless to say anything after the village head made the decision.

He glared at Zhang Tiantian and left with Sanzi.

Zhang Tiantian said, "Wait a second. I haven't finished my words."

Zhang Tiantian's uncle was stopped by Zhang Tiantian and turned around impatiently.

Zhang Tiantian said to the village head, "I need my house back. I plan to renovate it."

The village head nodded, "Of course you will get your house back. It belongs to you."

Zhang Tiantian nodded after her problems were solved.

The village head didn't want to waste his time on her anymore when she finished her words.

Xiao Rong noticed that Zhang Tiantian looked pale and wanted to ask the village head's help.

He failed to stop the village head who wanted to ignore them.

He couldn't speak.

Even if the village head knew that he wanted to communicate with him, he just ignored him and left.

After Zhang Tiantian saw that Xiao Rong wanted to catch up with the village head, she grabbed him by the arm and shook her head, "Don't worry. I don't need to see a doctor. I'll be fine after a rest."

Although Xiao Rong was worried, he was new here and couldn't find a doctor, so he had to help her into the house.

On the street outside the house, the village head saw Zhang Tiantian's uncle and his son waiting for him.

He glared at Zhang Tiantian's uncle, "You've gone too far this time! Now half of the village knew that you occupied that poor girl's house and tried to hurt her."

"There's some misunderstanding. Don't believe in her words."

Zhang Tiantian's uncle didn't want to offend the village head.

He handed a cigarette to the village head to butter him up.

The village head noticed that Zhang Tiantian's uncle and his son behaved themselves.

So, he nodded and walked forward with them.

He said while walking, "Tiantian seems to earn some money in Beicheng. She wants to renovate her house as soon as she came back."

"Beicheng is a big city. She had been working there for years and must have saved a lot of money. It's natural that she has the money to renovate her house."

"How much money can she save?"

The village head asked Zhang Tiantian's uncle curiously.

Zhang Tiantian's uncle and Sanzi looked at each other sneakily.

Sanzi looked at the village head obsequiously and answered the question on behalf of his father, "I went to Beicheng before. There were lots of tall buildings, so I think Tiantian at least saves 100,000 Yuan!"

village head nodded after hearing Sanzi's words, "That's a lot. The average per capita income of our village is so low. Well, you have to work in big cities if you want to make a fortune."

Zhang Tiantian's uncle and his son nodded after hearing the village head's words.

They thought that the village head had a good point.

...

Xiao Rong helped Zhang Tiantian into the house and let her lie on the bed.

Mrs. Li was here too and asked her concernedly, "Are you alright, girl? Maybe I can find a doctor over?"

Zhang Tiantian shook her head, "Don't bother."

"But why are your lips so purple?"

Zhang Tiantian smiled, "I'll be fine after a rest. I have palpitations a lot lately."

It was probably because she suffered a lot from Ye's death.

Zhang Tiantian constantly felt out of breath at night and had palpitations sometimes.

But she would be fine again after a rest.

These symptoms occurred only when she was extremely sad and emotional.

She felt that she would be fine after a good rest and didn't bother to see a doctor.

After all, it was so troublesome and expensive to see a doctor.

And nothing would change even if she spent lots of money.

"Have a good sleep. Such a dramatic morning! You haven't had breakfast yet. I'll make you some."

Zhang Tiantian nodded and thanked Mrs. Li, "Thank you for being so sweet!"

"You're welcome, good girl!" Mrs. Li watched Zhang Tiantian's father grow up and had a good relationship with her family. After Zhang Tiantian's parents passed away, she felt sorry for Zhang Tiantian.

So, she treated Zhang Tiantian very well.

Zhang Tiantian looked at Mrs. Li and teared up.

Mrs. Li knew that she was unfortunate and didn't want to make her unhappy again.

She turned away.

Zhang Tiantian raised her hand and wiped her tears.

Xiao Rong gestured to comfort her, "Please don't cry."

Zhang Tiantian nodded and looked at him smilingly, "Yeah, we'll move into the forest cabin tomorrow. Nobody will cause us any trouble there, even my uncle."

Xiao Rong nodded.

Zhang Tiantian added, "Everything will be fine."

She teared up and said either to Xiao Rong or herself, "We can renovate our house after we live on the mountain. After the renovation is done, we can move into our new house. We don't have to worry about anything when we have the new house."

Xiao Rong noticed that she was obsessive, so he nodded and gestured, "Stop talking. Get some sleep."
