Chapter 172: It’s outrageous that you don’t even protect your sister-in-law!
Jiang Wan was silent for a moment. Generally speaking, she was not a good person.
Although she knows that they are pitiful, Jiang Wan will not do anything that she finds troublesome just because they feel sorry for her.
"Princess, are you blaming me for leading you into this den of thieves?"
Qingshan raised his head, his dark face full of determination, "Sister Qiu Niang is a good person.
If the princess doesn't like me, it doesn't matter, but Sister Qiu Niang will definitely like me, she is very capable!"
Even if Jiang Wan didn't want him, he wouldn't have any resentment.
"Brother, you didn't mean it."
Lu Shui argued in a low voice, "Brother did it for me. He didn't do anything bad on purpose. I cried secretly when I saw him come back."
"Green water."
Qingshan quickly covered Lushui's mouth, lowered his eyes and knelt there without saying a word.
Qiu Niang pursed her lips sadly, "Those people took Lu Shui away, and Qing Shan did everything to save his sister."
"so what?"
Jiang Wan played with the big knife in his hand, "No matter what, he did hurt me and Chuchu.
It's only because we have the ability that we were able to escape, what if it was any other girl?"
“That’s true.”
Qi Chu, who was kind-hearted, immediately withdrew his softness and sighed softly:
"It's all the fault of those human traffickers. They must die a miserable death!"
"It was my fault."
Qingshan felt guilty, and that was why he wanted to make amends.
"elder brother……"
Lushui held Qingshan's hand and said timidly, "I'm sorry, brother. It's all my fault that I got you into trouble."
"Silly girl, what are you talking about? I'm not afraid of being implicated by you."
Qingshan wiped Lushui's tears and said firmly to Jiang Wan:
"Qingshan is willing to make up for his previous mistakes. I will do whatever the princess asks me to do!"
Jiang Wan: ...
Her mind was working rapidly, and she was thinking about how to refuse when the little person Lushui, who was kneeling beside Qingshan, softened slightly.
"younger sister!"
Qingshan was quick to grab the person, only to see that Lushui had her eyes closed and was now leaning in Qingshan's arms.
Qingshan was so frightened that he felt like he had stepped on empty air when walking down the stairs.
"Don't move."
Jiang Wan bent down and squatted, first touching Lu Shui's forehead, then feeling her pulse.
"I fainted because of insufficient blood and nutrition, and I caught a cold."
Jiang Wan could tell with her toes that those people would definitely not take good care of them, so naturally they were not well fed or clothed, and their health was not as good as before.
Qiu Niang also helped to support Lu Shui. She bit her lip and said, "They only gave us one steamed bun and a bowl of water a day."
“That’s too much!”
Qi Chu said to the county magistrate indignantly: "Sir, you must not let them off so easily!"
"That's natural."
The county magistrate had beads of sweat on his forehead and was worried that Song Jiuyuan would get angry.
The Sixth Prince had said before that the War King was cruel and ruthless and not a kind person.
"She's in this condition. She'll be fine if she takes some medicine."
The silver needles on Jiang Wan's fingertips flipped, and several of them fell on Lushui. Although Qingshan was very nervous, he did not dare to disturb Jiang Wan.
The admiration in her eyes when she looked at Jiang Wan was growing. The princess was truly capable.
After a few breaths, Lu Shui slowly opened her eyes and said, "Brother, what am I..."
"You fainted, and it was thanks to the princess' kindness that she saved you."
Qingshan rubbed Lushui's little head lovingly, and Lushui kowtowed to Jiang Wan hurriedly.
"Princess, thank you for saving my life."
“It’s a piece of cake.”
Jiang Wan's frown relaxed and she changed her mind: "You can follow me if you want.
But you have to sign a contract to sell yourself. If I tell you to go east, you can't go west. Besides, what I can't accept the most is betrayal.
If you betray me in the future, you will definitely not have a good ending. Can you accept this?"
"able!"
Qiu Niang was the first to nod. She felt it was her blessing to follow someone as capable as the princess.
Qingshan also hurriedly expressed his opinion: "I can accept it too!"
"I listen to my brother."
Lushui was still young, and she only knew that her brother's choice was definitely right, so she listened to him in everything.
Since the three of them had no objection, Jiang Wan found paper and pen, wrote the contract immediately, and smiled at Song Jiuyuan.
"Can you lend me your people?"
"Of course."
Song Jiuyuan raised his eyes and looked at Song Yi. Song Yi had just thrown Lily into the brothel and hurried back. He came to Jiang Wan obediently.
"Take it to the government for record."
Jiang Wan handed the deed to Song Yi and was about to take Qiu Niang and the others back to the inn.
The county magistrate also wanted to go, but was rejected by Song Jiuyuan. However, Lin Tingchen followed them to the inn.
Before entering the door, Jiang Wan heard a scream. It was Song Jiuli. When she saw Jiang Wan, she shouted excitedly.
"Mom, my sister-in-law is back."
She trotted over and hugged Jiang Wan tightly. Jiang Wan pushed her away awkwardly.
"Jiuli, calm down."
"I can't calm down, sister-in-law, you scared me to death!"
Song Jiuli kept talking about the places she and Madam Song had looked for.
The two of them were so anxious that they hugged each other and cried, and their eyes were still swollen.
After comforting Song Jiuli with a few words, Jiang Wan still had to comfort the gentle Madam Song.
"Mom, I'm so powerful, who can bully me?"
"That's true."
Madam Song sighed, "A mother is always worried about her son even when he is thousands of miles away, no matter how powerful you are.
Mother was also worried that you might have met with an accident, but now that I see that you are fine, I can finally put my mind at ease."
She quietly held Jiang Wan's hand and refused to let go, fearing that this was a dream and that Jiang Wan would disappear in the next second.
But Song Jiuchi is a man, and there is a difference between men and women. He just stood behind Song Jiuli, with worry in his eyes.
After finally coaxing the whole family into submission, Song Jiuchi looked at Qi Chu who was speechless.
"It's all your fault. I heard from the waiter that it was you who dragged my sister-in-law out!"
"I'm right."
Qi Chu felt a little guilty, and said in a timid way, "But I just want to take Sister Jiang out shopping.
How could I have known that those people were so blind? How can you blame me?"
"If it weren't for you, my sister-in-law would be fine!"
Song Jiuchi insisted on his own point. Seeing that the two were about to argue, Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan looked at each other.
It was Song Jiuyuan who spoke again, "Song Jiuchi, shut up!"
“Brother!”
Song Jiuchi was like a rebellious little leopard, "I'm not wrong, you are my sister-in-law's husband.
Why don't you protect your sister-in-law? That's outrageous!"
Everyone: ...
Jiang Wan was quite amused and helpless, and called out to Song Jiuchi, whose hair was almost standing up in anger.
"Chu Chu can't be blamed for this. That person wants to catch us. Even if we hide in the inn and don't go out, we can't avoid it."
"Sister Jiang is right!"
With Jiang Wan protecting him, Qi Chu straightened his back and said confidently:
"You are a grown man, why are you so petty?"
"Who is petty?!"
Song Jiuchi expressed his dissatisfaction, and the two of them were like a tit-for-tat when they met, which gave Jiang Wan a headache.
"Song Jiuchi, go get two more rooms. I bought one for three people."
