“So,” Jiang Nuan spread her hands innocently, “I emphasized before that we must take good care of the supervisor.”
The supervisor bears a greater risk in this kind of matter; without proper arrangements, it really can't be done.
"I'll take care of the arrangements," Chief Huang decided after a moment's thought. "As for that plan, we don't understand it, so we can only entrust it to Fifth Sister-in-law."
"That's easy!"
When Jiang Nuan came out of the Huang clan chief's house, she was all smiles.
Meanwhile, Village Chief Huang, standing beside him, looked like a leaf falling in the autumn wind, his face trembling.
"Brother," Jiang Nuan said, somewhat puzzled by Village Chief Huang's mood, "the matter of corvée labor has been almost fully discussed, why are you still not happy?"
"I'm worried about my life."
After inadvertently revealing the truth, Village Chief Huang covered his mouth in horror, "Ya Ya, I didn't say anything, right?"
His mature and steady image cannot be ruined like this.
After all these years of maintenance, how could we have become so careless?
“Hmm, I didn’t hear it,” Jiang Nuan smiled even more brightly after discovering a little-known side of Village Chief Huang. “Don’t worry, big brother, I’ll plead for you if your parents scold you.”
"Really?" Village Chief Huang completely forgot his previous thoughts and threatened fiercely, "You'd better keep your word, or I'll hide my parents and not let you see them."
After hearing Jiang Nuan's words, Village Chief Huang knew that he would not be able to keep those dozen or so taels of silver.
Her younger siblings were incredibly stubborn; no amount of effort could change their minds.
I can't escape this beating from my parents.
They only begged that the authorities would show mercy, considering their youngest son didn't have many years left to live, and not kill or maim him.
"Don't worry," Jiang Nuan's lips twitched, "A gentleman's word is as good as his bond."
It was the first time she realized that beneath her older brother's mature exterior lay a youthful heart.
It was a bit unexpected, but it also made me feel a little warmer.
hehe……
She had always thought her older brother was the kind of person who was rigid and inflexible, but now it seems that she had misjudged him.
Hearing Jiang Nuan's laughter, Elder Huang's face turned red. "The rest of the way is not far, so I won't see you off."
After saying that, he fled in a panic.
Her disordered steps quickened visibly at the sound of Jiang Nuan's laughter, making her look quite disheveled.
As they leisurely returned home, Madam Xie and Madam Jin immediately gathered around.
“Mother, look,” Xie pinched her soft cheeks, “my face has really become smoother, and I can feel that it has become whiter.”
“I also feel like I’ve gotten fairer,” Ms. Jin replied, head bowed.
Forehead……
There isn't even a bronze mirror in the house; the water can only reflect a rough outline.
Jiang Nuan was very curious about how her two children discovered they had become fair-skinned.
This face mask can't cleanse your meridians and marrow, so how can it be effective so quickly!
However, the little girl's love of beauty must be carefully protected.
She carefully examined the two of them and nodded emphatically, "They are indeed a bit fairer."
"Really?" Xie covered her face shyly and asked hesitantly, "Mother, have I become more beautiful?"
“Yes,” Jiang Nuan concluded sincerely, “her face was fair with a rosy glow, her cherry lips were pink and lovely, her eyes were bright and spirited, and her dimples were especially sweet.”
"Mother," Xie's face flushed, like a splendid sunset, dazzling and captivating, "I'm nowhere near as beautiful as you say~"
Although her mouth was modest, her crescent-shaped eyes clearly said: Praise me, keep praising me, this girl is just as beautiful as a flower.
Her awkward yet shameless behavior amused Jiang Nuan, who pinched her cheek and said, "That's enough, your sister-in-law is watching."
