Chapter 25 I... I am not cut out for raising a child.
Minister Dong was surprised and said quickly, "Sir! I... I am not cut out to raise a child."
The young man kowtowed quickly and said bluntly: "I don't need you to support me, I can support myself!"
Seeing that he had such courage at such a young age, the Prime Minister was quite impressed and patted Minister Dong on the shoulder.
"You are efficient and capable. Raising a child will be a piece of cake for you."
Minister Dong didn't dare take credit for it. "Sir, we were able to successfully find and destroy the intelligence office this time thanks to Madam Ruan! I thought that after they arrive in Qingchang, perhaps we could greet the new officers and have them..."
"No, she can get through it safely."
At the same time, Ruan Mian, who was a hundred miles away, sneezed violently.
She blew her nose. The fire was burning brightly, but the people around her had already fallen asleep one after another.
She was not very sleepy, so she went to a quiet corner and touched the bracelet to enter the space.
She didn't know whether the tiger was dead or not. If it was, she would disguise herself and sell the tiger's body when she arrived in Qingchang Town.
And these duck offal and other things also need to be dealt with sometime.
Then make it into a braised dish and enjoy it on the road.
But she didn't expect that as soon as she entered the space, she suddenly saw the tiger lying lazily on the rocks by the stream. After seeing Ruan Mian, it turned over its belly like a big cat!
She was slightly stunned, in disbelief.
At this moment, the tiger no longer looks like a wild beast.
You know, when Ruan Mian stabbed it twice before, its mouth was full of blood and drool, and it looked as ferocious as it could be with its fangs and claws bared.
But now it was like an enlarged version of a cat. Not only did it turn over on its belly towards Ruan Mian, but after she approached cautiously, it stretched out its claws and scratched the air a few times, making a whimpering sound.
It's just like a delicate and whimpering monster, and it's the kind that's particularly clingy.
When Ruan Mian approached again, it rolled over to her side and rubbed its huge head against her legs.
Ruan Mian was very alert at first and was ready to draw his dagger to defend himself at any time.
But when she saw that it had no malicious intentions and was instead well-behaved and docile, she gave up the idea of killing it.
At the same time, she was surprised to find that the beast, which she had stabbed twice, both times in fatal wounds, had miraculously recovered.
There was no wound on his body, and his hair was shiny and glossy, and his skeleton was very strong.
Could it be that... this space also has the effect of nourishing and repairing?
Can it heal injuries and cure illnesses?
Judging from the current situation, there must be something in the space that can heal injuries and also heal the spirit. Otherwise, how can we explain the condition of this beast?
But she couldn't figure it out for a while, but it didn't matter. The main thing was that the beast had lost its hostility and had no intention of hurting anyone. Instead, it was showing its courtesy to her as if it had recognized its master, and Ruan Mian was very fond of it.
Especially when it rubbed against her, its fluffy and soft fur and chubby body made her feel so comfortable.
She simply used it as a pillow, and slept comfortably beside the stone while basking in the sun.
When he woke up again, Ruan Mian had already come out of the space, and it was now daylight.
She felt full of energy, as if she had eaten something nourishing.
Thinking back carefully, the original owner was weak and sickly, but since she came here, her condition seemed to be getting better and better.
It seems that many things have been changing subtly.
The officials were urging people to hurry up ahead, and everyone was reluctant to leave the big thatched hut. It would be great if there were thatched huts to live in along the way.
It’s a pity that the road to the north will only become more and more difficult.
Although it didn't rain today, it was a gloomy and windy day, and the biting cold wind cut into my face like a knife.
The scarves that Ruan Mian led Cuizhu and the others to sew yesterday came in handy at this moment.
She showed them how to cover both their heads and faces to protect them from the cold wind.
The group of people from the Qi Mansion who did not have scarves were shivering with cold and could only huddle together and move forward with difficulty.
They waited until they reached the edge of a valley before the officer stopped with a sigh.
They had pork elbows to eat, and didn't care about the people in the team at all, letting them solve their own lunch.
Liu and the others were almost angry to death. It was so cold, where could they get anything to eat?
When I was worried, I saw Ruan Mian had already rushed to the river. He first filled up the water bags of his family members, and then made a simple fishing rod and mixed some duck offal.
Ruan Mian was actually just pretending. The water here was so clear and it was winter, so it was rare to see a fish, let alone catch one.
Liu pulled a bunch of people to watch the joke and said rudely.
"You really don't have any common sense. Does this look like you can fish?"
Ruan Mian raised her eyes slightly and chuckled. Was that a real fish she was catching? It was clearly just her stupid fish!
She ignored the jokes of Liu and the others. When they were shouting that they were going to dig wild vegetables for lunch, Ruan Mian took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention and directly took out several live fish from the space.
Put them one by one in the wooden basin.
When Cuizhu saw the lively fish, she shouted with joy, "You are so amazing! Look, you really caught a fish!"
There are three crucian carps in total. Although they are not big, they can be used to make a pot of good soup.
Blanch some green leaves, cook some rice, and pair it with the pork elbow, and you have another delicious meal.
When Liu saw the fish, she couldn’t believe it! !
He quickly called out to the servants, "Go fishing! If she can catch something, I don't believe we don't have any!"
Qi Lin didn't want to move and didn't listen to her. Liu saw her turning her back and she was so angry that she slapped her hard.
"You damn girl! You really don't take me seriously. Do I owe you something or deserve it? Why do you treat me like this? If you didn't have me, what would you eat and drink? Would you starve to death?"
"It's okay if I don't eat or drink your food!!" Qi Lin couldn't stand it any longer, and after yelling angrily, he turned around and left.
Liu followed behind and cursed relentlessly. The mother and daughter were quarreling all the time now, and everyone in the team seemed to be used to it.
She saw the boiling fish soup in Ruan Mian's big pot, and the aroma made her feel tingling all over.
I can't wait to rush over and eat it all!!
If it weren't for her, how could I have fallen to this point?
She is such a rich lady, but now she has to eat dirt.
I was also schemed against by her and suffered such a great insult.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. When she saw Ruan Mian bringing a few bowls of fish soup to bribe the officials, she looked down on him from the bottom of her heart. After a snort, she came up with an idea.
She dressed up a little and walked towards the officer.
After a while, Ruan Mian was still thinking about giving the officers some more rice, but unexpectedly, behind the reed marsh, the officer reached out to touch Qi Lin's body with a smile.
