Chapter 1144 There are scoundrels
"Yes, yes. Come with me into the village first. I will talk to my father and the others."
Zhuoma had a very good impression of Jiang Wan, because of them, their New Year was a little better.
Jiang Wan, Song Jiuyuan and their group followed Zhuoma into the village. Occasionally someone heard the noise and opened the window.
When they saw it was Zhuoma, they said nothing.
Until they arrived in front of a wooden house, Zhuoma's family members who heard the noise came out one after another.
Zhuoma said loudly and excitedly: "Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Madam Song and others are passing by.
They wanted to stay for one night, and there were enough rooms in our house, so I brought them back."
Because of the kind reminder before, Zhuo Er was less wary of Jiang Wan and the others.
So he said to Madam Zhuo, "Madam, go and clean up two rooms."
Their family is not as wealthy as Tianyu's.
There are only four rooms in the wooden house, one for the couple and one for each of their siblings.
There is also a utility room.
Cleaning up two rooms means that Zhuoma sleeps with her mother, and Zhuoer sleeps with his son.
"Thanks."
Jiang Wan was naturally not polite. She gave Muxiang a look and Muxiang took out four coins of silver.
"This is the room fee. We stayed at Uncle Zhuoma's house before and it was also two cents per room."
"No, no, no need for so many..."
Zhuo Er was very embarrassed. Although he was a little defensive, he was actually a simple and honest man.
Even Zhuoma and her brother felt very embarrassed.
"You have to give it. That's the rule."
Jiang Wan deliberately put on a stern face and said, "If you don't accept us, we can only stay outdoors."
"Thank you, Mrs. Song."
Zhuo Er knew that Jiang Wan had made up her mind, so he didn't force her, but he did so before the room was cleaned up.
He served homemade tea and sweet potatoes, which was a great way of hospitality for a country person.
Jiang Wan and the others did not refuse, as Zhuoma's house was not as spacious as Tianyu's.
There were only two rooms, and at night Jiang Wan slept with the children and Mu Xiang Ruoshui.
Song Jiuyuan and Gan Ze will take turns to keep watch.
The couple haven't been separated for a long time, and Song Jiuyuan is still not used to it.
Muxiang and Ruoshui were very happy because they could sleep with the baby.
Seeing them ready to help, Jiang Wan hurriedly said, "You guys take care of yourselves, I'll take care of Xiaoshu and Xinxin."
“That won’t work.”
Mu Xiang chuckled and gently pinched Xiao Shu's fair and soft face, "Junior brother is so cute."
"Master, you must not have had enough rest during this period. You should have a good rest. We will take care of our junior brothers and sisters."
Ruoshui also liked Xinxin very much, and secretly made up her mind that she would train her junior sister to become a powerful poison master like her in the future.
Jiang Wan didn't know what she was thinking for the time being, "Let me do it myself, you can't feed them for me."
In fact, Niu Milk is still in the space. Jiang Wan is a little bald, so he can only take the children to the space quietly at a certain time at night.
So it would be safer for her and Song Jiuyuan to sleep with the baby together.
Ruoshui and Muxiang seemed to agree after hearing this, so they didn't force it and just ate a few bites casually that night.
After a simple wash, Muxiang and Ruoshui had already joined together to make the quilt.
The bed was not big, and it was a bit crowded for four people to sleep on it, so Jiang Wan and the babies slept on the innermost side.
After tossing and turning for several days, Jiang Wan was indeed very tired and soon fell asleep with her eyelids drooping.
In the middle of the night, she took the children into the space quickly on time.
Sure enough, the two babies were hungry, and Jiang Wan quickly fed them milk.
She quickly came out of the space again, and it only took a few breaths. She was very glad that the speed of time flow in the space was different from that outside.
Otherwise, Muxiang and Ruoshui would definitely notice it.
However, this kind of situation cannot happen more often, otherwise it will be exposed sooner or later.
Jiang Wan yawned and was about to take a nap when she vaguely heard a light noise coming from outside.
It seemed that Gan Ze was on guard in the second half of the night. He hadn't slept well in recent times, and Jiang Wan suspected that he might have fallen asleep.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wan gently pushed Mu Xiang next to her, "Mu Xiang..."
"master?"
Mu Xiang opened her eyes in confusion, and Jiang Wan lowered her voice, "There seems to be someone outside.
You and Ruoshui take care of the children, I'll go out and take a look."
"Then you must be careful, Master."
Muxiang handed Jiang Wan's clothes while carefully protecting the children.
When Jiang Wan left the room, she quietly woke up Ruoshui, who was sleeping like a pig.
Jiang Wan had just slipped out of the room when she saw a few more people standing next to the carriage with supplies in the yard.
"Wow, I knew these guys must be rich. There's so much meat."
"Keep your voice down. Those people seem very powerful. Let's sneak the stuff back first."
"What are you afraid of? This isn't our first time. We can do it without anyone noticing. Even if we ask tomorrow, we won't know who did it."
“…”
There were several furtive dark figures, obviously veterans.
Ganze, who was sleeping in the carriage, was unaware of it.
Something has been happening every night these past few days, and he must be exhausted. Jiang Wan would not blame him.
She first sneaked into Song Jiuyuan's room, and Song Jiuyuan just opened his eyes.
The slightest noise could not escape him, so he just put on his coat.
"Wanwan, what's going on?"
"I guess they are the scoundrels in the village. Just catch them and tie them up together."
After all, Jiang Wan was staying overnight in their village, and if someone died, people would suspect her.
It’s not that she wasn’t afraid of the people in the village, she just didn’t want to delay her journey any further.
After all, the baby in Qi Chu's belly is waiting to be born.
"Okay, let's go together."
Song Jiuyuan had already put on his coat, and the two of them left the room. The others were guarding the supplies and moving them with great enthusiasm.
He didn't even notice Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan approaching.
When they got closer, Jiang Wan could see clearly that there seemed to be four people.
They should be ordinary villagers, but compared with others, they are a little more ruffian.
Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan looked at each other, and they assigned the tasks almost instantly.
Then he dodged three or two times, and after a few breaths, the four people were fixed in place.
Only the eyeballs can move, but it cannot speak or move. This is the work of Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan.
"Anyone who wants to steal my things has gone to hell, but you are so brave."
Jiang Wan flicked the snow off her cloak and handed Song Jiuyuan a stack of ropes.
Song Jiuyuan understood and quickly tied up these people together. Since they could not speak or move, they could only glare at the two of them angrily.
But it's useless.
Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan were not soft-hearted people. They put the supplies back into the carriage little by little.
Song Jiuyuan tied the four men together and then tied them to the wooden pillar in front of the door.
Regardless of whether they would freeze to death, Jiang Wan yawned and said to Song Jiuyuan:
"I can still sleep for another two hours. I'm going to take a nap."
"good."
Song Jiuyuan smiled dotingly and sent Jiang Wan back to her room before going back to rest.
