Chapter 137 Gift Purse
"Miss Jiang, you are so amazing." Lu Qiniang said sincerely.
"Thank you." Jiang Yi said modestly, then looked at Xiao Yan, "How have you been lately?"
"Very good." Xiao Yan nodded.
San Ya couldn't wait to drag Xiao Yan to play ball.
"Dad, Dad, let's go!"
Xiao Yan bowed and said to Jiang Yi, "Excuse me."
"Hey, Xiao Yan, don't spoil her. Aren't there guests here?" Lu Qiniang said.
Jiang Yi said, "No problem. I came here with my family to appreciate the chrysanthemums today and happened to meet you."
After Xiao Yan followed San Ya away, she asked Lu Qiniang again: "Maybe it's a bit presumptuous to ask this, but is this your daughter?"
"Saya? Yes, my daughter, the naughty one." Lu Qiniang said, "Miss Jiang, you know Kung Fu, right?"
"Just a little bit."
"The fur is amazing too."
Jiang Yi asked her, "Were you the one who bought Xiao Yan before?"
"Yes," Lu Qiniang nodded. "In the freezing weather, I felt sorry for him. Plus, he had been so kind to our family before, so I bought him. Miss Jiang, there's something I don't quite understand. Can I ask you?"
Perhaps Jiang Yi had already been classified as one of her own, so Lu Qiniang asked this question.
"you say."
"It's Xiao Yan, right? He was an official before, so why didn't anyone save him when he got into trouble? I understand he's worried about being implicated, but couldn't he buy him off privately?"
It was such a cold day, with ice and snow everywhere, and Xiao Yan was locked in a cage for more than ten days.
Not to mention him, even the guards couldn't stand it.
"I used to think that Xiao Yan had a bad reputation and was unpopular, but now I feel that he is not that kind of person!"
"We all have our own concerns. Xiao Yan's own people, he once ordered that no one is allowed to rescue him. He is angry with the emperor."
"Out of spite?" Lu Qiniang asked in confusion, "Why is he so angry with the Emperor? Why won't he obey the Emperor?"
"It's a long story." Jiang Yi thought for a moment and tried to explain it in simple terms. "The emperor didn't allow him to do something, but Xiao Yan felt it was important and had to be done, so he disobeyed the order."
"How can he be so brave!" Lu Qin's mother was shocked.
I really want to say, it’s what you deserve!
How can you not listen to the emperor?
The emperor's words are golden words, they are imperial decrees.
"How could I not have realized that Xiao Yan still had a rebellious streak! He's really not like that in my family," Lu Qiniang said. "He's such a nice guy. I really can't imagine him being so stubborn."
Jiang Yi found her words interesting and couldn't help but laugh, "What's your name?"
"Lu Qi Niang, if you don't mind, just call me Qi Niang."
"Okay, abandoned mother. What do you do for a living now?"
"Setting up a stall." Lu Qiniang said, "We're still building a warehouse at the dock, but it's not finished yet. We're just trying to make a living, so we do whatever makes money."
"Xiao Yan is setting up a stall?" Jiang Yi found it unbelievable.
"Sometimes he goes, and sometimes he's busy with other things." Lu Qiniang said, "He's diligent and does everything."
Jiang Yi seemed to be lost in thought.
After sitting for a while, Jiang Yi pulled out his purse from his waist and said, "Maybe this is a bit presumptuous, but I have no ill intentions. I just hope that you can live a more comfortable life."
After saying that, she stuffed the purse into Lu Qiniang's hand without saying anything and stood up to say goodbye.
Without giving Lu Qiniang a chance to refuse, she had already left.
"Hey, Miss Jiang, wait a minute!" Lu Qiniang called her and stood up to chase after her, "I can't take your things!"
"For Xiao Yan." From afar, the wind brought Jiang Yi's words.
Lu Qiniang looked down at the exquisite purse in her hand. Beneath the gauze, gold and silver threads were intertwined. The outline of the hydrangea and crabapple was scattered into stars by the sunlight, and there was an indescribable pleasant fragrance on it.
That’s great.
Lu Qiniang realized belatedly that Jiang Yi and Xiao Yan were old acquaintances, so maybe—
Maybe she is interested in Xiao Yan?
She didn't know if it was her illusion just now, but she always felt that Jiang Yi seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Is this a feeling?
If that were true, that would be great!
The two of them match in appearance and height, and both are good at martial arts. The child born in the future will definitely have extraordinary bones and will be able to practice boxing in the mother's womb.
Jiang Yi has an extraordinary demeanor and noble status - that vicious woman is a princess, and she was still polite when she saw her.
If Xiao Yan was with her, no one would dare to laugh at him in the future.
The whip in Jiang Yi's hand is merciless.
How could this be like me, who would let Xiao Yan endure and endure again, until he became a coward? How could this be like General Po Lu?
However, these are just her guesses, and I don't know if they are accurate...
When Xiao Yan came back after playing with San Ya for a while, Lu Qiniang looked at him with a sly smile on her face.
Xiao Yan: "Hmm? Abandoned Mother, what are you laughing at?"
"Xiao Yan, do you think we are quite familiar with each other?"
"Um."
If you say you are not familiar with someone who sleeps on the same kang, you will be lying.
Xiao Yan had actually wondered why Lu Qiniang didn't seem to be on guard against him in this regard.
Later, after living in Tonghuafang for a while, I realized that the strict separation of men and women was actually a luxury.
In order to save firewood, some poor families would have the whole family, men, women, old and young, sleep on one big kang.
It’s just that Lu Qiniang didn’t think much about it, but he thought a lot, which made him shameless.
But later on, he would slowly let Lu Qiniang know that she could not sleep on the same kang with anyone else, only with him.
"Hehe, tell me the truth, do you like that Miss Jiang?"
Xiao Yan: "..."
"I think she's interested in you. If you don't dislike her, you can get in touch with her. But don't forget to tell her first that we're not together..."
"She's not interested in me, and I don't like her either." Xiao Yan interrupted Lu Qiniang bluntly.
"She's interested in you. Look," Lu Qiniang handed him the purse, "she gave it to you."
Xiao Yan looked at her with a complicated expression, saying nothing.
He had never experienced such a moment before, and Lu Qiniang felt a little nervous when he looked at her.
"Did I say something wrong?" Lu Qiniang said in a panic, "Shouldn't I accept this? I didn't mean to make the decision for you, but she left and I didn't catch up... Look at me, I'm imagining things again, always wanting to be a matchmaker. I have this problem."
Xiao Yan sighed, took the purse from her hand, opened it, and pulled out a rolled-up piece of paper from it.
"Take a look—" He didn't even take a look himself, but let Lu Qiniang take a look.
Lu Qiniang unfolded the paper and suddenly exclaimed, "Ah!" "Two, two hundred taels of silver? Xiao Yan, is someone here to help you?"
Finally!
