The Cute Peasant Wife: Mian Niang - C266 Don't play tricks on me

Thinking that he still had to make tofu in the morning, Mian Niang fell asleep after sending Mistress Yun away.

She had been like this for the past two days. She was dizzy and spent most of her time sleeping.

Just like what Madame Song Li said, in the end, it was a head injury. This was not a matter of whether one was strong or not.

In the middle of the night, he seemed to hear someone knocking on the window.

Mian Niang opened her eyes blurrily, she sat up and looked around, but did not see anyone, so she thought she was dreaming. Just as she was about to go back to sleep, she heard someone calling her name from outside the window.

“Jiang Ting?” She could make out the voice.

“Yes.” The response from outside confirmed her guess.

Mian Niang was still worried about the jade pendant, she immediately put on her shoes, put on her clothes, and walked out.

Sure enough, he saw a figure standing in the courtyard. It was looking up at the sky, and upon hearing the door open, it hurriedly turned around.

“Is it done?”

He asked pointlessly.

Mian Niang quickly understood what he was asking, not thinking that the man would still be concerned about her own injuries, but when she recalled that the pill she was currently using was something that the person had left behind, she felt that her own thoughts were truly stupid.

This person was cold and proud, but he wasn’t a heartless person. He clearly knew that he was injured, so how could he not pay attention to him?

“Yeah, much better.”

The night was clear, and Jiang Ting could see the girl under the moonlight clearly.

The bandage on her head hadn’t been removed yet, and her face wasn’t as rosy as before. Her eyes weren’t as clear as usual, so it could be seen that this “much better.” It’s watered.

“If I hit my head, I won’t be able to recover so quickly.”

His living environment and upbringing had taught him all this.

“Speaking of which, I have to thank you for the medicine.” Mian Niang thought about that white porcelain bottle and the medicine he had left behind two times. The effects were so obvious, which showed that it was not an ordinary medicine.

“I’ve already seen the wound. That day when the doctor came, he also said that it was indeed a good medicine.”

The effect of removing blood stasis to stop bleeding was instantaneous. It was not something ordinary drugs could compare with.

“As long as it’s good.”

He looked at her gently. “You were quite scary that day.”

White snow, red blood, red and white contrast clearly, isn’t it frightening?

For someone like Jiang Ting, who treated injuries as a common occurrence, when he saw Mian Niang lying there motionlessly, his mind was momentarily blank. Fortunately, he had covered it up really well and did not let anyone else see through it.

“Actually, it looks scary, but it’s not that serious. It’s just a waste of your medicine.”

Mian Niang turned around and went into the kitchen. Jiang Ting unconsciously followed her, but her eyes kept on resting on her limping legs.

Now, he actually felt that being injured wasn’t a small matter. It was just a look at who the injured person was.

He watched as Mian Niang entered the kitchen. After adding firewood into the pit, he borrowed the moonlight to take out two pieces of tofu and choke on the stew. She also took out the leftover vegetable nest for dinner and heated it up in the pot.

“Not a waste.” Jiang Ting stood at the entrance of the kitchen and did not go in. He only watched as Mian Niang did all of this in the dark.

“I’m worried, if you give me the medicine, in case you …”

“I’m fine.” He interrupted her in a hurry, but his heart was pounding.

She was concerned about him, wasn’t she? It should be!

Under the moonlight, the man looked like a perfectly straight white Yang, with an indifferent expression, only the unusual heat at the base of his ears revealed his true thoughts. It was a pity, Mian Niang could not see through it, and she could not even see Jiang Ting’s expression.

He could only faintly feel that he was not as dull and solemn as he was in the past.

But he couldn’t imagine what this person would look like once he showed his expression.

Mian Niang looked at the blazing flames, and hesitantly said: “I know you have good abilities, but what you have done is also very dangerous. I don’t know how good you are, but there is one thing in the world that makes sense: there are mountains beyond the mountains, and there are people beyond the mountains. Of course, I’m not questioning you … You know what I mean? ”

Her emotions were in a mess, it required her to muster up enough courage to say such words, but she lacked even the slightest bit of courage. She was so nervous that she spoke incoherently, and it was unknown whether Jiang Ting would be angry or not.

“I understand.”

He looked at her with a gentle expression and smiled, “It’s really alright. You don’t have to worry. There are very few people in this world who can hurt me. I may not be smart, but I know the principle of running away if I can’t win.”

“Pfft — —” Mian Niang laughed, she did not think that this person would also say something like that with a straight face. She raised her head, carefully sized up the person standing at the entrance, and shook her head: “That’s right, if you can’t beat me, then run, but I really can’t imagine how you would look like when you ran away.”

This person was just like his sword, ready to pull out of the scabbard at any time. He would only attack and not retreat, just as Mian Niang had said.

“I did too.”

Jiang Ting felt uncomfortable being looked at by her as he lowered his head to hide his emotions. It was as if he wanted to run now, but it was as if his feet were nailed to the ground and he did not want to leave.

His original plan was to leave after putting down the jade pendant.

On this trip to the border to deliver the secret letter, that master specifically told him to go and come back quickly.

He changed into a few fast horses along the way. He wanted to deliver the letter as soon as possible, but he was still unable to control his own legs in the end.

When they passed by so close, they wanted to see her.

He didn’t expect to encounter an accident that time.

After he left, he couldn’t help but rejoice in his heart. It was fortunate that he came back, or else, what would have happened to Mian Niang.

He didn’t know when those people would be able to bring him up.

The Gold Healing Medicine was concocted by a famous doctor in the world. He knew about the effects immediately, but he still came here to find an excuse for himself to give away the jade pendant, but he did not mention anything about it. Instead, the injuries on her body made him more worried.

She raised her eyebrows in disbelief. “There really is one?”

Jiang Ting nodded cautiously.

Mian Niang sighed: “That’s true, a mountain is higher than a mountain.”

“All living things are mutually incompatible.” The harmony between the Yin and Yang was like a mutual counterattack. Jiang Ting blushed and cursed himself for being shameless.

Mian Niang naturally did not understand the deep meaning behind his words, and could not directly say that she did not understand, so she used her smile to cover it up.

Jiang Ting ignored the random images in his mind, and took out the jade pendant from his chest pocket.

“I guess it was taken by you, but I’m still not sure. I’m still thinking about what exactly happened.”

Since he did not lose the jade pendant, Mian Niang’s heart was finally relieved. He relaxed a little and naturally spoke a lot more.

There were so many things hidden in her heart that even if she were to face Mistress Cloud, she would not be at ease.

On the other hand, Jiang Ting, who knew of everything that had happened to her, so it was useless for him to be on guard or unprepared.

It was just that Mian Niang didn’t realize it herself.

“I saw it and was afraid of causing trouble. I didn’t know where to put it so I took it.” Jiang Ting thought about what he had seen when he picked the jade pendant and felt his heart heat up.

Once he raised his head, his mouth felt dry from seeing Mian Niang’s smiling face.

“I can’t take it. You should keep it.”

“Why?”

Jiang Ting was stunned and puzzled: “I don’t need it for now, it’s more than suitable for you to keep it for safekeeping.”

Mian Niang still did not accept it: “Don’t lie to me, last time I did not react. Now I understand, this must be something your parents left for you, you should have it on yourself, how can you casually pass it to others?”

And she was a country girl without any relatives at all.

Jiang Ting was silent: How could you be anyone else.

He could only rejoice inwardly that the night had become his best mask. He could clearly see every single change in Mian Niang’s expression, but Mian Niang could only not see his.

Suddenly, he remembered that there was something else in his clothes. He quickly took it out. It was a letter. It was not sealed. It was completely different from the other secret letter in his pocket.

He handed the jade ornament along with the envelope.

Mian Niang looked at him in surprise.

With an expressionless face, he said, “Your brother told me to send it back.”

Mian Niang reached out to grab the envelope.

He refused to let go.

Mian Niang looked at him.

He did not look at Mian Niang, but at the moon hanging on the treetops.

Mian Niang used her strength again, and the envelope was still in his hand.

Mian Niang did not dare to use too much strength, for fear that she might damage the envelope and tear the letter inside.

“Jiang Ting.”

She had no choice but to sigh at his shamelessness.

Jiang Ting said softly: “It is true that it was left behind by my parents, but I miss my brother and sister. If I rely on such an item, how can I not laugh?”

“What’s so funny about seeing people think about things?”

“Does one even need to see things when they’re in the heart?”

Mian Niang was speechless.

“If you feel guilty in your heart, you can temporarily take out one of your most precious things and leave it with me for safekeeping.”

“Ah …”

Mian Niang spread out her hands: “I don’t have anything valuable, nothing can compare to this dagger in your jade pendant.”

“Who said that?”

Jiang Ting reached out and took the wooden hairpin from her head.

“This will do.”

“Sigh …” Mian Niang wanted to stop him, but he reached out and put his hand on his chest, “Don’t underestimate this kind of thing. It’s only a hairpin in your hand, but in my hands, it’s more than enough for me to use to protect my life. It’s even more effective than a dagger, after all, no one would suspect that a wooden hairpin would be able to harm you.”

He was spouting nonsense, causing Mian Niang to be in doubt: “Really?”

“When have I ever lied to you?”

He relied on his good impression that he had never told a lie in front of Mian Niang.

“You keep it. We can just change it one day. That way, you won’t feel like you owe me anything, right?”

“Switch back in the future?”

“I had no choice but to give myself up. This journey was extremely dangerous, and I had to leave a way out for myself.” He continued his nonsense.

Mian Niang thought about the truth in his words.

He had to urge them, “If this continues, Your Mother and Little Brother will wake up.”
