The Cute Peasant Wife: Mian Niang - C306 They were more powerful than ants …

Mian Niang’s worry was not for nothing. In fact, this matter had always been in her heart, causing her to feel uneasy whenever she thought about it.

“The matters of the Mei Family made me feel that little powerless people like us are actually ants that they can play with as they please.”

Back then, Xiao Zongxian only wanted to vent his anger, so he gave Song Zhixiao a crime and sent him to the border.

The current Xiao Zongxian, because of Mei Wu betraying him, could kick him to death.

Back then when he was hooked up with Mei Wu, he had never once thought about whether Mei Wu had betrayed Song Zhixiao or not.

Even Gu Xin had done a lot of things he wanted to do but shouldn’t have done with his power.

These people did whatever they wanted, and it was only for their own good and bad.

Mian Niang looked at Jiang Ting. She didn’t know which side this person actually belonged to, but she could tell that he was the one who was taking advantage of the situation to seek an opportunity. Even if his martial arts were powerful, he couldn’t afford to be unfavorable towards him.

It reminded her of sleepless nights.

Jiang Ting didn’t expect her to say these things to him, and even said them in a clear and orderly manner. It could be seen that he had kept these words in his heart for a long time.

Holding the bowl, he looked at her dumbly.

“Are you worried about me?”

Mian Niang nodded, magnanimous yet not bashful.

“Why?” He tried to see through her true thoughts.

“If you don’t allow me to continue seeing you as my savior, then I will treat you as my friend. Naturally, I will worry about your safety.”

“Just friends?” Jiang Ting was not satisfied with the answer, and his tone was overbearing.

Mian Niang was suspicious: “If I’m not a friend, then what is, cousin? Farroom Cousin? ”

She thought about the identity that Jiang Ting had arranged for her, and looked at Jiang Ting with ridicule.

The man froze, not knowing what to say.

Song Zhien rushed in at the wrong time and placed the hot tea in his hand. “Mr. Jiang, drink this tea.”

The youth looked at him with admiration.

Jiang Ting silently accepted the teacup, feeling that he had failed to speak and had lost the best opportunity.

After eating the noodles and drinking the tea, there seemed to be no reason for him to stay any longer.

Jiang Ting stood up and prepared to leave, but he was stopped by Mian Niang: “This tofu will be out of the wok soon, why don’t you try it later?”

Jiang Ting had always been a man of principle, with a firm will and determination, and wouldn’t be easily affected by any external factors. It was just like how when he was undercover in the Prince Rong’s Mansion, even when he faced his enemies everyday, he never revealed any weaknesses.

It was because of this that he had become one of the backbone of the Shadow Squad and gained the trust of the emperor.

But right now, Jiang Ting’s footsteps were hesitating a little. He calculated his own speed in his heart, and in the end, still stood at the door, waiting for Mian Niang’s first pot of tofu to come out.

Seeing him stay, Mian Niang was happy.

Thus, he showed it on his face.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Ting felt that staying behind was the right decision.

Song Zhien was busy doing nothing but teaching him a few moves.

When he was studying, he was very diligent. In these days, as long as he had time at home, he would train for a while, diligently and diligently.

His talent was also not bad, but he was still a bit old at martial arts. Fortunately, this child didn’t have any ambitions, so he only needed to temporarily learn some self-defense.

Jiang Ting nodded his head: “Very solid.”

It could be considered a type of reward, and Song Zhien immediately beamed with joy.

The corner of Jiang Ting’s eyes fell on Mian Niang’s body. Seeing her proud face, he couldn’t help but praise Song Zhien a little more.

If anyone saw this, they would definitely not believe that such hypocritical words came from Jiang Ting’s mouth.

I told him a little more.

Song Zhien took his words like an imperial edict, listening to him calmly and unhurriedly.

He sincerely wanted to learn martial arts and did not hope for himself to achieve anything. He only hoped that there would be a day when Sis A met with danger again and he would stand up to protect her.

Song Zhien was also sincerely teaching his little disciple, he did not take it lightly, but things like training couldn’t be done overnight, so he had to do it bit by bit.

He taught Song Zhien a few more moves.

By the time Song Zhien memorized the action, Mian Niang’s tofu had already left the wok.

Fresh bean curd mixed with seasoning, Mian Niang brought the bowl into his hands.

Jiang Ting looked at the tofu brain and then at Mian Niang. His Adam’s apple unconsciously moved a little as his appetite suddenly grew stronger.

He quickly took the tofu brain and thanked her before sitting back down on the small stool.

He lowered his head and began to eat.

After eating two bowls of tofu brain consecutively with a full stomach, Jiang Ting finally got up and left.

Mian Niang was busy, and did not have any time to spare, as Song Zhien sent them to the entrance, calling them Mr. Jiang, feeling reluctant to part with them.

He treated Jiang Ting as his master, and he also treated him as his brother.

The longing for and reliance on Song Zhixiao had all been transferred onto him.

Jiang Ting turned around, looked at this child, and thought for a while. “Don’t call me Mr. Jiang in the future.”

“Then what should I call you?” The child reacted quickly and was about to kneel down immediately, calling out “Master”.

Jiang Ting hurriedly stopped her. This bow was something he could not accept no matter what, otherwise, he would have to explain himself in the future.

“You, just call me big brother.”

He said without hesitation, “Since I’m your cousin, what if you call me master? What if you say you don’t want to speak your mind in front of others?”

Song Zhien nodded his head: “That’s true, then I will treat you as my master in my heart.”

Jiang Ting hurriedly stopped him, “There’s no need for that in your heart either. You just need to treat me as your brother, the same as your blood brother.”

Song Zhien scratched his head. He felt that something was amiss, but he couldn’t put his finger on it. He wanted to clarify a little more, but Jiang Ting had already left.

His figure quickly blended in with the darkness of the night, and it wasn’t until Song Zhien was unable to tell the difference between them anymore.

Only then did Song Zhien turn back and call out for the second time, as Mian Niang’s second pot of tofu had already been boiled.

The chopsticks and bowl that Jiang Ting used were still by his side, while the small stool was placed against the wall. This person had come and went in a hurry, if not for the things in front of him, he would really not have left a single trace.

“Sis A.”

Song Zhien walked over and called for someone, but Mian Niang did not say a word. She went closer to look and discovered that there were traces of water on Sis A’s face, but she did not know if it was because of the steam or because of something.

He crouched down in silence and continued to light the fire.

His mind drifted a little further away.

There was a whimper from inside the house.

Mian Niang turned around and immediately put down what she was doing and returned back to the main house.

Very quickly, Song Zhien heard the voices of Sis A and Mother talking and he stood at the side of the wok.

Seeing that Sis A had done so much, he thought that it would be easy. However, after he had started it, he was actually flustered.

Fortunately, Mian Niang returned very quickly. Seeing that he was staggering on the side of the wok, Mian Niang immediately took over from him.

Song Zhien scratched his head in embarrassment and called out to Sis A: “I’m useless, I can’t even do this kind of thing.”

“This is not something that can be used to. Sis A would not do it in the beginning, but after a while, he became proficient in it. Furthermore, you don’t need to do this work. It’s already good enough that you can help Sis A burn the fire and beat the crap out of it. ”

Song Zhien stood at the side and said uneasily: “I have to learn to do it too, I can’t always let you do it yourself.”

He was a man, the pillar of the family should have been him. How could he let Sis A keep carrying the burden of the family?

Mian Niang tapped his forehead and thought it was funny: “How old are you? Just take care of the things in front of you and it will be fine. You haven’t been light all day, and you still need to learn and practice martial arts. Now that you’re helping the Sis A with their work, the burden on your shoulders is no less than the burden on the Sis A. ”

Song Zhien’s words did not comfort him, but he did not refute Mian Niang, and only quietly suppressed the thoughts that came out of her head.

Mrs. Song Li felt aggrieved and happy, she had been holding it in until Jiang Ting left and started crying.

Just now, Mian Niang went in and advised her a little. Finally, Madame Song Li was still persuaded and truly cried. Only then did Mian Niang relax and walked out, she did not expect to see his brother standing by the wok when he returned.

The child also said that he would share the burden.

With this sentence, those burdens were no longer burdens.

The matters of the Mei Family were overturned. As for Gu Mao and Xiao Zongxian, they could only talk about them later.

However, how could he avenge his father and brothers’ deaths?

The chicken called again, causing Mian Niang to immediately stop thinking and start working again.

The siblings worked until dawn, making tofu and putting breakfast in the wok.

After putting away the tableware that Jiang Ting had used, Bao Sheng drove the carriage over to get the tofu.

Bao Sheng had wanted to drink soy milk today, so Mian Niang gave him some soy milk.

He patted Song Zhien’s head. He really liked the young man who called himself Big Brother.

He would tell him some of the things that happened in the city, but what he talked about today was Zheng Dahu’s Zheng Family.

“Speaking of which, Zheng Dahu suddenly disappeared along with her little wife a few years ago. He didn’t take anything of value with his, saying that there’s a high chance someone secretly murdered his, but even after the officials checked, they still couldn’t find anything. The sales at the stores at home were getting worse and worse, and every day, all of the concubines and family members left, leaving only the Zheng Family’s eldest wife guarding the large courtyard and the two shops. However, what was strange was that the eldest daughter of the Zheng Family had also disappeared a few days ago. She had never expected that the person would return in the day and leave without a trace. When she returned, even the steward and servants were scared out of their wits, she said that she went back to her parents’ home, but even if she did go back to her parents’ home, she wouldn’t be able to go back alone. At the very least, she had to bring two maidservants with her. Do you think it’s strange? ”

When Mian Niang came out carrying the tofu plate, he changed the topic to Mian Niang. She felt that this child who was a few years older probably knew more than that child.

“It’s quite strange.”

Mian Niang said with a smile.

She could guess what was going on in her heart, but she did not make any noise at this time. She wanted to know what the people in the city had said, and the most important thing was whether or not Jiang Ting was involved.
