Chapter 43 She Really Loves Him
"What's the problem? She can't find a way to leave anyway. It's better for her to follow me than to go to that kind of place."
Xu Wei was a little annoyed. This Chen Qian was not like the women who passed by before. Although she had been married, she was once a daughter of an official after all.
The feeling must be different, and he was a little reluctant to let it go.
"No, we can't take the risk."
Xu Lizheng still refused. Jiang Wan outside was very confused. What kind of place were these people talking about?
What exactly are they going to do?
"grandfather!"
Xu Wei rolled his eyes and said, "Think about it, although Chen Qian was exiled, she was at least a daughter of an official family.
She is better than the village woman in terms of talent, appearance and other aspects. If she gives birth to a child for me, it will definitely be extraordinary."
These words made the village head hesitate. "What you said makes sense. Let me think about it."
This woman's seed is better than others, but there are still certain risks.
"Anyway, you should decide as soon as possible. They will leave early tomorrow morning, so we have to act early."
Xu Wei left the house unhappily. Jiang Wan turned around and left quickly. Along the way, she was wondering what they were going to do.
She returned to their cottage in a daze. Mrs. Song had already cleaned the bed and stove with the children.
"Ah, there are fish!"
Song Jiuli looked at the fish in Jiang Wan's hand with surprise and swallowed greedily.
In the past, the chefs in the palace cooked fish in various ways, but she had never been so greedy.
"It rained heavily for several days in a row, and the water level rose. Some fish were washed up in the creek, and I picked them up beside the creek."
Jiang Wan made up an excuse and handed the fish to Song Jiuyuan to clean.
He does nothing every day, and only at times like this can he feel a sense of existence, and Jiang Wan is also happy and at ease.
"You're so lucky. I'll go outside and have a look too. Maybe I can pick it up there too."
Song Jiuchi started to run, looking somewhat anxious.
"return!"
Song Jiuyuan stopped Song Jiuchi coldly, "It's getting late outside, don't run around!"
Jiang Wan had not come back just now, and Song Jiuyuan was very anxious. At that time, he hated his health for not getting better.
The more this happened, the more he hated himself for turning himself into such a culprit!
"Don't go yet, I have something to say after dinner."
Jiang Wan was unwilling to hide many things from them. She didn't want to be like the people in some TV dramas who did good deeds without leaving their names.
In the end, it will still be misunderstood. What is the purpose of having a mouth?
"All right."
Song Jiuchi came back dejected and helped to light the fire. Jiang Wan stood beside and gave verbal instructions to Song Jiuli.
"Sister-in-law, do you want to add more water?"
Song Jiuli cooked carefully. She couldn't always eat plain rice. Her sister-in-law was willing to teach her so she had to seize the opportunity.
Mrs. Song was steaming rice on the side, and the meal was soon ready. Tonight they had boiled fish and cold wild vegetables.
The food smelled delicious. Song Jiuli couldn't help but sniff, "It smells so good. It turns out I can cook with such good skills."
These words made Mrs. Song's eyes tear up. Her children used to be well-off and had nothing to do with housework. They just had to open their hands to get clothes and eat food.
Now she is so greedy for food. It all comes down to her being incompetent as a mother.
"Then you have to practice more in the future."
Jiang Wan hoped that Song Jiuli would fall in love with cooking so that she could completely give up this job in the future.
"Well, I'll try my best."
Song Jiuli agreed with a smile. She was more sensible and cuter than before.
After going through things, you always have to grow.
"Hurry and eat."
Jiang Wan took a bite of the fish fillet and found it tasted just average, certainly not as good as the imperial chef’s, but still edible.
But she had just eaten and was not hungry, so she gave all her share to Song Jiuyuan.
"Husband, you are a patient. You need to eat more so that you can recover faster."
In the original book, Song Jiuyuan has unfathomable martial arts skills, and Jiang Wan wants to wait for him to recover, by which time no one will be able to do anything to the Song family.
"That's enough."
Song Jiuyuan glanced at Jiang Wan deeply and sighed.
She loved him so much that she couldn't bear to eat even a little bit of food herself and left it for him.
How could a grown man like him let a girl starve?
So Song Jiuyuan didn't want it, and put the fish fillet into Jiang Wan's bowl, "Madam, you have worked hard recently, eat more."
The two of them interacted with each other, leaving the other three confused. It turned out... their relationship was so good?
After refusing for a while, Jiang Wan also felt the gossiping gazes of the crowd, her ears turned red, and she put down her chopsticks and said:
"I'm really not hungry. Just now, an old lady outside gave me a pancake and I ate it till I was full."
After saying that, she quickly placed the fish fillet in front of Song Jiuyuan, then hurriedly got up and went into the house.
Song Jiuyuan: ...
He looked at Jiang Wan's back, his eyes filled with emotion. She must have said that so that he could eat in peace.
"Brother, what are you thinking about?"
Song Jiuli waved her hand in front of Song Jiuyuan, and Song Jiuyuan came back to his senses and said in a concealing tone:
"nothing."
"Yuan'er, Wanwan treats you like this, you must cherish her."
Madam Song is now more and more satisfied with Jiang Wan, and is afraid that her son will treat her poorly.
For the first time, Song Jiuyuan did not refute, but lowered his eyes and ate the fish in front of him.
The fish meat is tender and the fish soup is also very delicious. How can you pick such good fish by the stream? I guess Jiang Wan found it specially.
She really took great pains to help him recover, and he shouldn't have misunderstood her before.
Jiang Wan didn't know what Song Jiuyuan was imagining. She came out only after they had finished eating.
"Li'er, wash the dishes later. I have something to tell you."
Jiang Wan sat back at the table and repeated what she had just heard at the headman's house, and finally said:
"Although I don't know what they are talking about, my instinct is that it's not a good thing. What do you think?"
"You guessed right, they definitely have bad intentions."
Song Jiuyuan frowned, tapped the table lightly with his fingertips, and a look of contemplation appeared in his eyes.
Madam Song sighed, "Should we talk to the officials about this?"
They can't resist just by themselves.
"I'll go and talk to you."
Jiang Wan stood up and told everyone, "Wait for me to come back."
She left the house and headed towards where Ren Bang and his friends lived. They were also staying in a villager's home.
When Jiang Wan arrived, Xiao Deng had just finished his meal and was very happy to see Jiang Wan.
"Sister Jiang, have you ever eaten it?"
"I've eaten. Please ask Brother Ren to come out. I have something to discuss with him."
Jiang Wan was extremely anxious and had no time to greet Xiao Deng, but Xiao Deng was not angry and quickly called Ren Bang.
"Brother Ren, I have something to tell you."
Jiang Wan felt the inquiring gazes of those in the room and lowered her voice:
"There's something strange about this village."
"How do you know?"
This time, Ren Bang did not express whether he believed it or not, obviously wanting to hear what Jiang Wan had to say.
