"Let me go!!"
A deafening howl followed.
The voice was loud and powerful, causing the guards and the rice ball to bare their teeth at him.
At this moment, the two-meter-tall burly man was trapped in the pit by the net. He was struggling to get out, but found that no matter how he moved, it was useless. He could only curse: "Damn it, let me out right now, or I'll tear this place apart and crush your bones to pieces!"
Even after being caught, he's still so defiant.
This was the first time Cheng Shanshan had ever seen such a man, and it was none other than the two-meter-tall, burly man Da Yu she had seen at the Jiang family rice shop during the day.
Big Fish glared angrily at Cheng Shanshan: "You scum who plotted against me!"
Hearing Cheng Shanshan being scolded, Cheng Shisi stomped his feet in anger: "I say, do you have any sense of reason? You were caught because you sneaked in to steal.
The big fish was speechless.
That made sense, but after thinking for a moment, he said, "Then I'll apologize first, and then you can apologize to me!" With that, he roared from the bottom of his lungs, "I was wrong, I shouldn't have jumped over the wall!"
Cheng Shanshan was initially unhappy, but she was amused by these words: "You're really funny." Of course, since the other party was so frank, she naturally played along: "Then I apologize to you for my trap."
Then she had Cheng Shisi release him.
As the big fish stood up, Cheng Shanshan was about to speak when she noticed Huo Mingchen silently standing in front of her, which warmed her heart.
It seems he's always been like this.
No matter what, I will always protect her behind me...
The big fish, however, was somewhat displeased: "Hey, move aside, I'm not here to see you."
Huo Mingchen didn't move, but looked at him coldly: "No one is a reason for you to jump over the wall. Please leave immediately." Although there was a big difference in height between the two, his aura was no weaker than that of the big fish.
Even the big fish seemed slightly frightened.
However, he was there on business, so he quickly straightened himself up and said, "No, I can't leave. My master sent me to invite Miss Cheng."
He actually came to ask someone for a favor.
However, when they arrived at the door, they found that the door was too small.
Taking advantage of his height, he stepped inside, only to be caught in a net as soon as he got in.
Cheng Shanshan was both amused and exasperated: "Why is your master targeting me?" She clearly remembered that she didn't know her.
The big fish scoffed, "Blind, huh?"
"Then you should go back and have your master get his eyes treated." As Cheng Shanshan said this, she was already gesturing for him to leave: "Fourteen, help me see him off."
The burly man called Big Fish suddenly sat down on the ground: "My master said that if you don't come with me, I'll stay at your house."
Everyone was stunned.
Seeing the enormous creature sitting down and acting like it was doing nothing, they couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.
Big Fish looked at Cheng Shanshan and said, "My master also said that you will not regret going to see her. She can give you a lot."
"Um?"
Cheng Shanshan raised an eyebrow.
Think of that Jiang Niangzi, and then look at this big fish that refuses to give up.
After a moment's consideration, she decided to go: "Then get up, I'll go with you."
"no."
Huo Mingchen quickly pulled her back: "That Lady Jiang is no good person."
"Don't worry, don't worry." Cheng Shanshan smiled faintly: "The key is, if she wanted to harm me, why would she send someone so simple-minded? Wouldn't that be sending her to her death?"
"...You call me stupid?" Big Fish was dissatisfied.
Of course, Cheng Shanshan couldn't admit it: "Of course not, I was praising you." As she said this, she leaned close to Huo Mingchen's ear and whispered, "Follow me secretly, I'll help you find out what's going on."
The most important thing is that the current situation is that the people have no food.
The only two rice merchants are either raising prices arbitrarily or acting mysteriously, making them the least cooperative parties at present.
She knew that Huo Mingchen wanted to save the people from suffering, so this kind of troublemaker should be smoothed out so that the road ahead would be smoother.
Of course, she also had her own selfish motives; she was curious about what that Lady Jiang really wanted to do.
Upon hearing that Cheng Shanshan was coming with him, Da Yu immediately stood up: "Let's go, let's go, my master must be getting impatient."
On the way to Jiang's rice shop, he seemed afraid that Cheng Shanshan would run away.
Cheng Shanshan asked, "Why does your master want to see me so much?"
The big fish didn't speak.
Cheng Shanshan asked again, "Then do you know what she wants to do?"
The big fish didn't even glance at her.
Of course, there were still various problems to come, but unfortunately, they turned a deaf ear.
Only when they arrived at the rice shop did he give Cheng Shanshan a disdainful look: "Speak less when you see my master. My master hates noisy people the most."
"..."
Cheng Shanshan silently rolled her eyes at him.
Just then, the door opened, and Madam Jiang swayed out: "Big Fish, I asked you to invite someone, but you've been gone for so long."
"I was wrong."
The big fish completely lost its aura in front of Jiang Niangzi.
He lowered his head as he said this, looking just like a child who had done something wrong.
Jiang Niangzi stood on tiptoe and patted his head: "Alright, alright, you've done very well. Go inside and eat something. I made your favorite rice crust."
"good."
The big fish immediately beamed with joy.
She dragged him away, carrying his large frame.
Jiang Niangzi then looked at Cheng Shanshan, her alluring eyes filled with a smile: "Miss Cheng, I've also prepared some things for you. Why don't we go inside and talk?"
"good."
Cheng Shanshan smiled slightly.
The woman in front of me, Jiang, seemed to be smiling while hiding a knife.
But for some reason, she didn't feel scared at all.
Soon she followed Jiang Niangzi into the house. Da Yu was eating rice crusts from a large pot in the corner. After passing her, she arrived at a quiet tea room.
Jiang Niangzi sat down in the chair, her fair hands, adorned with balsam flowers, picked up the white jade teacup, and the way she brewed the tea was as smooth as flowing water, a pleasure to watch.
The air was filled with the fragrance of jasmine.
Cheng Shanshan smelled the aroma and took a small sip: "Not bad, it's been a long time since I've had such fragrant tea."
"You actually drank it."
Jiang Niangzi covered her smile with a handkerchief: "If I were you, I'd be afraid of being poisoned."
"Madam Jiang, you're really joking." Cheng Shanshan looked at her, her smile only widening. "If you wanted to harm me, why go through all the trouble of inviting me here? Wouldn't it have been better to just hire a culprit?"
"Haha, as expected of the person I like, she's really quite interesting!"
Jiang Niangzi smiled radiantly, her every gesture exuding a captivating charm.
Although Cheng Shanshan enjoyed looking at beautiful women, she still went straight to the point and asked, "So, why does Madam Jiang want to see me?"
