“We might as well sneak away at night. That way, we can avoid these issues.”
“Ah, I didn’t expect this.” Sikong Wuyuan slapped himself. “l must have lost my mind. Jiu Zhu, you’re brilliant. If we didn’t listen to you, we would be asking for trouble.”
Seeing that Jiang Ming did not reply, Tang Xiaoxiao could not help but panic. “Jiu Zhu,” she called out quickly. “Are you unwilling to forgive us? My mother is already old, and my brother also relies on chopping firewood to make a living. We didn’t do anything wrong. Do you really have to be so persistent?” At this point, she immediately wiped her tears.
Her tears flowed down like a waterfall, but they did not affect Jiang Mings emotions at all.
Jiang Ming glanced at Tang Xiaoxiao. “It’s nothing. It’s just a small matter. I will definitely forgive you. You don’t have to care too much. I was just thinking about how to reply to you. After all, men and women are very different. What if 1 say something bad and make you misunderstand?”
Tang Xiaoxiao did not expect Jiang Ming to be so understanding. She secretly heaved a sigh of relief and then smiled. “Jiu Zhu, you’re hilarious. I’m just a vulgar woman. I won’t be angry no matter what you say. Mother, what do you think?”
As she spoke, she winked at the old woman, her eyes clearly wanting her to continue speaking.
However, the old woman thought that her daughter had taken a fancy to Jiang Ming. She could not help but smile. She quickly said, “Yes, you can stay here for a long time. My son’s temper is indeed a little bad. I’ll apologize to you here. Son, quickly go and chop some firewood. We still need some firewood. We have to make a good fire and cook tonight. How can we not treat our
distinguished guests with good food?”
Then, she mimicked her daughter and winked at Tang Nannan.
Tang Nannan suddenly understood and grinned.
He wondered what his mother and sister saw in Jiang Ming.
In his opinion, Jiang Ming was as thin as a bamboo pole. He only had a handsome face and was not otherwise presentable at all.
At that time, if his sister married him, she would probably not be able to eat or wear warm clothes. The silver he had given them would not be enough for his sister to spend.
However, he could not say anything. After all, this was the person his mother and sister had chosen. It was meaningless for him to continue talking.
Seeing this, he could be considered to have accepted his fate. He nodded and turned around to enter the deep mountains.
He had to do what his mother asked him to do.
Seeing her son leave, the old woman heaved a sigh of relief.
She understood her son’s temperament. After what had happened just now, her son would definitely not let these three people off. She did not want her future son-in-law to get hurt. She still wanted Jiang Ming to give her more silver.
She had to calm her son down and not let him ruin her plans.
At the thought of this, she clenched her fists again, her eyes filled with greed.
When her daughter married this handsome young master, wouldn’t she be able to get more silver? She definitely had to make the two of them get married.
She was elated, but she did not realize that her daughter had secretly sent a silver needle into Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming naturally felt it and was a little surprised.
He did not expect the daughter of this family to know medicine. However, he did not think that she was very proficient in medicine. He was afraid that she had heard the thoughts of the Red Organization and learned from them.
He did not pull out the needle and continued to let the needle pierce his body.
However, he also secretly blocked his five senses and mind.
He did not believe that she would be able to poison him if he blocked everything.
As for Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe, they were both silent.
Since Jiang Ming had already said what they wanted to say, there was no need for them to continue.
Tang Xiaoxiao heaved a sigh of relief.
She had thought that Jiang Ming would notice, but she did not expect him to
be so stupid that he did not notice the silver needle she had thrown.
He would fall unconscious at night. She wanted both Jiang Ming and his silver.
She was proud of herself, but she did not show it on her face. Instead, she pretended to be considerate and opened the door.
She shouted at Jiang Ming and the other two, “Please come in quickly. It’s cold outside. Don’t freeze. As for the food, it will be ready soon when my brother brings the firewood over. Please don’t be anxious.”
The old woman also added, “There are some new teas in this house that had been prepared earlier. I’ll go make a cup for you now. I don’t know if you’re used to drinking it. If you don’t like it, you must tell us. This is a country house. There’s nothing good here.”
With that, she ignored her weary feet and jogged into the house, afraid that she would neglect the three guests.
Tang Xiaoxiao was extremely satisfied.
She had to admit that her mother was very cooperative. Otherwise, it would be difficult for her to clean up the mess by herself.
Jiang Ming and the other two did not say much and walked straight in.
Since Tang Xiaoxiao was clinging to them, there was no need for them to say anything. After all, these three people’s characters were not very good.
Seeing that the three of them did not speak for a long time, Tang Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed, but she did not say anything. She just continued to act. “There’s not much furniture in this room. You guys can take a seat. Don’t worry about us. Just treat it like your own home.”
“Thank you, miss.”
Jiang Ming felt that it was not a good thing for him to keep silent, so he replied.
Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe casually found stools to sit on.
They were already arguing and felt that Tang Xiaoxiao’s actions were really hypocritical. It was really unsightly for her to act like this for a little silver.
Tang Xiaoxiao did not care.
She saw their expressions and smiled.
They would suffer later, so she would let them familiarize themselves with this place. It could also be considered as a reward for these two people. Just as she was thinking, the old woman had already brought the tea over.
She ran very fast, not caring about the pain in her feet at all.
After a while, she prepared everything and even brought the cup filled with tea to Jiang Mings side.
“Jiu Zhu, please have some tea. Treat it as your own home.”
She had said this last sentence twice with Tang Xiaoxiao. Jiang Ming felt that it was a little against his will, but he still pretended to smile. “Thank you, madam..”
