Chapter 45: The Thief Cries Thief (2/2)



"If you go to the countryside, you'll definitely have to do farm work, exposed to the wind and sun. How can it compare to living in the city?"

"Who will take care of him then?"

"Don't worry about that. Let him do whatever he likes. As you said, giving him freedom and not disturbing him is the best way to respect and repay him. I heard that the Guan family's granddaughter also likes him and seems to be asking a matchmaker to propose marriage. If he goes to the countryside now, the marriage between the two families may not be possible."

"Lin Ruyan?" Luo Xue remembered something. "So she likes Yun Qi too. No wonder she always glares at me when she sees me."

"Just ignore her. Yun Qi never seems to like any girl. I don't think they can succeed."

Luo Xue listened to her mother's words, lowered her head, and couldn't help but recall the past...

Jiang family

After the Jiang family of four arrived home, Jiang Ye and Jiang Yang started skinning the rabbit, and Jiang Ting watched them process the rabbit.

Jiang Ting thought of Xu Nuannuan's gorgeous face and asked Jiang Ye, "Brother, the girl sitting behind me today is so pretty. Brother, do you like her?"

Jiang Ye then turned his head to look at her, then instantly shifted his attention to the rabbit without saying a word.

Jiang Yang raised his hand and knocked on Jiang Ting's head. He seemed to hear the sound of water splashing inside.

"I really doubt what's going on in your head. Big brother, I'm just here to pick someone up today. Can you fall in love with someone just by looking at them?"

Jiang Ting knocked on Jiang Yang's head with her backhand, making two thumping sounds. "You were only born an hour earlier than me, and yet you really think of yourself as my brother, always lecturing me like an elder."

Jiang Yang was hit by his sister, but he was not angry. He just smiled.

"Little sister, Tingting, my most beautiful, sensible, gentle and lovely sister, don't be angry. Second brother is saying that we are all grown up and can no longer look at things from the perspective of children. Liking someone is not as simple as just looking at the appearance. The most important thing is to look at the inner qualities and see if the other person's personality is suitable for you. If you want to understand a person's inner qualities and personality, you need to spend a long time together. It's not as simple as you think. You are such a lovelorn person!"

This time, Jiang Ting did not refute her second brother's criticism.

"I don't care if you like it or not. I like it anyway. I'm just superficial. Whatever you say."

Jiang Ye killed the rabbit, soaked the rabbit skin in salt water, washed the rabbit meat, and took it to the kitchen to chop it into pieces.

Jiang Mumei Xiangcao cooked the rabbit meat herself. An hour later, the fragrant rabbit meat was out of the pot.

Mei Xiangcao first took a lunch box made of a thick bamboo tube, put some rabbit meat in it, covered it with a lid, and handed it to Jiang Ye.

"Aye, go to the cowshed and give food to those three people. They are all miserable people in this world and we are in the same boat. We should help them as much as we can."

She had been caught in the rain herself, so she wanted to hold an umbrella for others.

I couldn't help but think of the past. After a brief recollection, I quickly pulled myself back to reality and warned Jiang Ye: "Be sure to be careful."

"I know, Mom."

Jiang Ye took the bamboo lunch box and put it in a straw bag. While the other villagers were having lunch at noon, he quietly walked around a cornfield and went to the cowshed.

In the cowshed, Fang Suyun was making a fire, and another transferred person, Mo Wuwei, was making a fire for her. Xu Zhenqing was lying on the kang to rest because his calf was bitten by a wild boar yesterday.

Jiang Yeqian came in and handed the bamboo tube to Fang Suyun: "Auntie, this is the rabbit meat my mother made. I brought some for you. Let's eat it together."

When Fang Suyun saw that it was Jiang Ye who came and brought them rabbit meat, she was so grateful that she didn't know what to say.

"Young man, thank you so much. If you hadn't showed up in time yesterday, I don't know if we could have gotten down the mountain. You carried Lao Xu down, gave him medicine, and now you've brought him meat. I don't know how to thank you enough."

"Auntie, don't say so much for now. You should eat the meat quickly and don't let others find out. Give more to uncle to supplement his nutrition and help his wounds heal."

"Hey, young man, thank you so much. Thank your mother for us too."

"Auntie, you're welcome. You guys eat, I'm done."

"Oh, all right, young man, take your time."

After Jiang Ye left the cowshed, Fang Suyun took out one-third of the meat and placed it in Mo Wuwei's bowl. Mo Wuwei then gave it to Xu Zhenqing: "Brother Xu, you are injured, you should eat more."

Afterwards, the three of them shared the food. Xu Zhenqing ate nearly half of it, and Fang Suyun and Mo Wuwei ate the rest.

Fang Suyun felt extremely grateful when she thought of Jiang Ye and Mei Xiangcao.

"We are really lucky to have met such a good person."

Xu Zhenqing smiled and said, "A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring. From now on, if anyone can help us, we must do our best to help them."

"Let's just look forward to the day when they can find us again."

Fang Suyun subconsciously wanted to mention Xu Nuannuan. She guessed that Xu Nuannuan should be here in the next few days.

But with Mo Wuwei present, she still didn't dare to bring it up.

They came here yesterday and met Mo Wuwei. He seemed to be a good person, but after all, they had only spent a short time together and did not have a complete understanding of him, so they could not reveal all their cards.

Xu Zhenqing also tacitly did not mention Xu Nuannuan. The couple were very much looking forward to the arrival of their daughter and hoped that she would be safe.
