Chapter 144: Watching the Fun (Part 2)

Upon hearing this, Wei Xingye looked inside the frame of the ox cart and exclaimed, "Master, you filled it directly with a bottle this time."

“It’s convenient to carry it with you.”

"Master, you are so thoughtful."

"This way, when you go out on a dart, you can bring chili meat sauce."

"Master, you don't know that last time everyone ate this, they all praised it highly and kept talking about it."

"Not to mention them, even my parents and I like to eat it, it goes well with rice."

"Especially after a tiring day, eating this with steamed buns is so relaxing..."

Anyway, he felt that after eating, his stomach was full and comfortable, and he slept well.

Wei Xingye shared all this with Jiang Zhiluo incessantly.

Jiang Zhiluo looked at Wei Xingye, whose eyes were full of chili meat sauce, and he seemed to have forgotten about Miss Chen.

She touched her chin and thought that Wei Xingye’s love for Chen Huadie might not be true love, and maybe he didn’t even understand what love was.

"You ordered 80 kilograms, one kilogram per bottle. Here are 80 bottles. Take a look. I'll be back after the delivery."

"Ah, Master, why don't you stay for dinner?"

Wei Xingye felt a little reluctant, thinking that his master had come with great difficulty, but he had not treated him well.

Jiang Zhiluo said, "I have something to do at home, so I need to go back early."

"You should run well every day."

"Yes, Master!"

They were in the empty yard in the east and there was no one there, so Wei Xingye called him Master.

When Wei Xingye ordered the chili meat sauce, he paid the full amount.

So this time Jiang Zhiluo was just here to deliver the goods.

…

When I got home, it was already evening.

Liu Ting'an was still at home and hadn't left.

He was helping Mrs. Cui pack snacks, one cloth bag at a time.

"Auntie, I'll help you set off the firecrackers later."

Madam Cui said, "No, I'll ask the village head to arrange for people to set off firecrackers. You must use your hands well for reading and writing, and be sure not to hurt them."

Liu Ting'an was not in a hurry to leave because he was thinking that Brother Cui's house would be hosting the roof-raising ceremony soon, and they would set off firecrackers to celebrate the occasion, so it would be a good opportunity to watch the excitement.

He can help if anything is needed.

His home wasn't far anyway.

Jiang Zhiluo listened to these words and thought that it was just in time for her to come back.

She walked over to Liu Ting'an and said, "It's too late to go to my parents today. I'll go ask for you later."

"It's okay, sister-in-law, just ask whenever it's convenient for you."

Liu Ting'an could see that Brother Cui cared very much about his wife, so Liu Ting'an naturally didn't dare to be disrespectful to Jiang Zhiluo as he did before.

He had already learned a lot from coming to see Brother Cui, and he was even more afraid of causing trouble.

"It's just troublesome to my sister-in-law."

Seeing Liu Ting'an's polite manner, Jiang Zhiluo smiled faintly and said, "It's not a bother."

It's business anyway.

And if more people use bellows and everyone knows the benefits of bellows, perhaps many people will ask to buy bellows from her father.

This will also increase his father's business.

As if she had thought of something, Jiang Zhiluo said, "By the way, I want to ask you about someone. Is that convenient?"

Liu Ting'an said very straightforwardly: "Sister-in-law, if you have any questions, just ask me directly. It's not inconvenient. I will tell you everything I know."

Jiang Zhiluo asked, "Do you know someone named Xu Muhan?"

This person has the name Lin Zhuzhu mentioned.

Jiang Zhiluo was a little worried and couldn't help but think about helping to find out.

Liu Ting'an listened to the name, thought about it carefully, shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, I have never heard of this name."

"Who is this person? It sounds like a man's name."

Jiang Zhiluo said, "I don't know him either. He's probably someone a friend knows. I heard he's a scholar."

"If you are a scholar, don't you know what I mean by that in the academy?"

Liu Ting'an said, "If they are from our academy, I will remember their names after hearing them. If I don't remember them, then they are either not from our academy or they are very poor students."

"Maybe he's studying in a private school outside."

"Our college is the largest academy in our county. Ordinary people cannot enter if they don't have enough knowledge."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I'll help find out later."

Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "Just ask privately and don't let anyone know."

Jiang Zhiluo thought that Lin Zhuzhu probably didn't want anyone to know about this.

But after hearing what Lin Zhuzhu said, Jiang Zhiluo was still a little worried about Lin Zhuzhu.

She was not a very kind person, but she had become familiar with Lin Zhuzhu, and Lin Zhuzhu was indeed good to her, so she could no longer treat Lin Zhuzhu as a stranger in her heart.

Besides, Lin Zhuzhu trusted her and told her these things.

Jiang Zhiluo smiled gently and said, "Thank you very much."

Liu Ting'an saw the smile on his sister-in-law's face and rubbed his hands embarrassedly, "No...it's okay, no...you're welcome."

I even stuttered when I spoke.

My sister-in-law is so polite. Her way of speaking doesn’t seem like that of a country girl at all.

When Cui Hejin came out of the house, he saw Liu Ting'an smiling foolishly at Zhiluo. He restrained his expression and coughed lightly.

“Cough… cough…”

Liu Ting'an suddenly came back to his senses, "Brother Cui, what's wrong with you?"

"fine."

Jiang Zhiluo also quickly put down what she was doing, went over and took Cui Hejin's hand to take his pulse.

Cui Hejin looked gentle at this time and let Jiang Zhiluo take his pulse.

"Take a rest first, don't get too tired."

"I'll go find some herbs later. You'll feel much better after taking some medicine."

Jiang Zhiluo thought that if she couldn't buy the herbs in the pharmacy, she would try to find them in the deep mountains and forests.

No matter how dangerous it is, Cui Hejin's body must be cured.

Otherwise, whenever he coughed, her heart would inevitably rise.

Besides, some medicinal herbs would cost at least a hundred taels of silver to buy.

Seeing Jiang Zhiluo's frown, Cui Hejin said, "I'm fine, don't worry."

"I just choked."

Seeing Jiang Zhiluo's worried look, Cui Hejin thought that next time even if he felt unwell and wanted to cough, he would have to endure it.

Although Cui Hejin said this, Jiang Zhiluo knew best about Cui Hejin's physical condition.

You can tell by taking the pulse.

Next, Jiang Zhiluo didn't let Cui Hejin do anything and just let him rest.

But Liu Ting'an really wanted to go to the new house at the back to watch the fun.

Cui Hejin had no choice but to take him with him.

Jiang Zhiluo said worriedly, "Brother Liu, please help protect my husband. There will be a lot of people in the village soon. Don't let anyone bump into him or squeeze him."

Liu Ting'an listened with his eyes wide open.

Only then did he realize that his sister-in-law really cared about Brother Cui.

That worried look didn't seem fake.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely protect Brother Cui."

Jiang Zhiluo and Old Madam Cui took some snacks into the house.

There were many children gathered around the house at this time.

The children were all chattering.

"My dad said that the Cui family would throw snacks on the roof beams today."

"My parents also said that we should come here and wait. My mother will come over after she drives the ducks back home from the river."
