When Xie Yingmian transmigrated to become Prince Ling's joy-bringing consort, Prince Ling had only one breath left.
She was being held by the wet nurses, forced to drink poisoned wine as ...
Chapter 610: She suspected Sui Sui had made a mistake
The village chief asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"I'm not exaggerating, I know everyone within a ten-mile radius."
Xie Yingmian: "In the villages nearby, has anyone come back to life recently?"
Seeing the village chief's horrified face,
Xie Yingmian explained, "It's the kind where someone is already dead and the doctors can't save them, but suddenly wakes up with a bit of a messed up memory and a drastic personality change."
The village chief frowned and shook his head.
“No…”
Xie Yingmian: "Everything within the last year counts."
The village chief thought hard and shook his head.
The village chief's wife happened to hear this and walked in shyly: "Princess Ling, Your Highness, I know such a person, but I'm not sure if it's the one you're looking for."
The village chief scratched his head: "Whose house is this?"
The village chief's wife said, "She is Mei Niang, the wife of Jiang Dadan, the wife of the village head."
"You forgot, last year, Jiang Dadan got drunk and beat his wife. The next day, his mother called his wife to get up and cook, but she was dead. When Mrs. Jiang was crying and cursing, his wife came back to life."
The village chief looked bewildered. "Ah, wasn't it said that Jiang Dadan's wife was being lazy and pretending to be asleep, but ended up pretending too much and causing this joke?"
The village chief's wife was furious: "You believe everything Jiang Dadan says?"
"He beats his wife all day long, and his mother also tortures his wife. His wife is not even 30 years old, but she has been tortured like a 50-year-old woman."
"With her condition, she's still being lazy?"
"Even if she doesn't eat or sleep and works like an old cow, she will be beaten and scolded. How dare she be lazy?"
"When I went in and touched her, Mei Niang's body was cold and her eyes were dull. She was definitely dead."
"The doctor said he might be holding his breath. Once the breath comes up, he'll be alive."
Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye looked at each other.
"Please take me there, auntie."
The village chief's wife was a little flattered to be called "Auntie".
She led the way and soon arrived at Jiang Dadan's home.
Jiang Dadan's family is the poorest in Meihua Village.
There are only three thatched houses and no walls.
Even if other people's homes are made of mud, they are protected by mud walls or fences.
The courtyards in the village are all made of earth, and the straw is from their own homes, so it doesn't cost any money at all, as long as people are diligent.
This family doesn't even have a courtyard wall, which shows how lazy they are.
When Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye arrived.
It was a lively time at Jiang Dadan's house.
Mei Niang, who was being tortured by the village head's wife, was pointing a boning knife at Jiang Dadan.
The three pale and skinny girls were protected by Mei Niang behind her.
Mei Niang was furious: "Jiang Dare, if you dare to sell my daughter today, I will kill you first and then your mother. If you don't want my daughter to live, I won't let you and your child live either."
"If you don't believe it, just try it."
"Even if I can't kill you this time, you'll always be asleep or drunk someday. When you do, I'll slice you to pieces with my sword."
Jiang Dadan’s name means “dadan”, but he is actually very timid.
I chose this name because I was too timid.
Jiang Dabing is a typical bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong.
In the past, Mei Niang didn't dare to resist. She accepted beatings and scoldings like an old ox and worked hard without complaint. Jiang Dabing and my mother bullied Mei Niang to death.
After Mei Niang resisted, especially when she pointed the boning knife at him, he became timid.
The village chief's wife was a little embarrassed.
She told Xie Yingmian, "Jiang Dadan likes to drink. He drinks from the morning until he's completely drunk. He doesn't do any housework. Mei Niang has to take care of three children and do farm work all by herself. We live in poverty."
"It seems Jiang Dabing has no money to drink anymore, so he wants to sell his child again."
Xie Yingmian: "Has he sold it before?"
The village chief's wife: "It has been sold and a buyer has been found."
"Mei Niang came to our house and asked for help. My old man scolded Jiang Dadan, and Jiang Dadan gave up the idea."
"Don't mention it. Mei Niang has become wise after her death. Before, she only knew how to cry and endure. After her resurrection, she finally knew how to resist. I feel so happy."
Xie Yingmian's carriage was low-key, but still luxurious in the village.
Especially the clothes worn by Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye were even more luxurious.
When Jiang Dadan discovered that a distinguished guest had arrived, he shouted at Mei Niang, "You stinky woman, put down your knife! Can't you see the distinguished guest is here?"
"If you offend the noble, you won't even know how you died."
Mei Niang's eyes seemed to be spitting fire: "Okay, okay, you bold Jiang."
“Buyers are coming to us.”
"I'm telling you, even if I kill you and the nobleman who came to buy my daughters today, I won't let you take them away."
"None of you will survive."
Mei Niang said this and pointed the boning knife at Xie Yingmian: "I won't sell my daughter. Get out of here now."
Xie Yingmian: ...
"I'm not here to buy a child." Xie Yingmian said,
"Put down the boning knife, take your daughters, and go to the village chief's house to talk."
"Yes, yes." The village chief's wife was afraid that Mei Niang would do something excessive, so she hurriedly said, "Mei Niang, these two nobles are not here to buy your daughter, they have something to ask you."
Mei Niang was very alert.
She doesn't trust anyone.
Xie Yingmian stood in front of the skinny and withered Mei Niang.
She couldn't see any trace of Chen Yu in Mei Niang.
She was a little suspicious, wondering if Sui Sui had made a mistake.
