C80 Angry

Mian Niang did not say anything, she only narrowed her eyes and sized up the person in front of him.

The man did not move, but allowed her to examine him as she pleased.

He was wearing a moon-white brocade robe, black boots with cloud patterns on his feet, and a jade with auspicious patterns hanging from his waist. He stood tall and straight with an elegant demeanor, with long eyebrows, long nose and thin lips.

"Are they all praising you for being a good person?"

"I'm a good person to begin with."

He walked in front of Mian Niang with a smile, his white teeth seemed to flash with a cold gleam, like a beast that was about to swallow its prey whole, tie the reins of the horses to the shaft of the carriage, and then go around to grab the reins from Mian Niang's hands.

"Such a good person, I wonder if Ah Mi has ever been moved by him?"

"You are not a good person. They were only deceived. They did not know the reason why you did not agree."

"Yeah, there are a lot of things in this world that we don't see. I thought I was very smart, but I was still blinded by them."

"I can't be bothered with you."

Knowing that she could not win against him, Mian Niang did not compete with him, and directly sat in the back of the carriage.

Seeing that she turned her head away and didn't even look at her appearance, Gu Xin helplessly sighed and said, "That's right, you don't want to bother with me, I originally thought that if you didn't trust your brother, you would have taken the initiative to look for me. I was also waiting at home, but who would've thought that before you came looking for me, I couldn't resist coming to look for you first."

Mian Niang thought about the matter of him driving past Gu Village two days ago.

If he didn't come today, she would at most go to the Gu Village to look for him tomorrow.

However, he couldn't say these words out loud. Otherwise, this guy would be even more unscrupulous and would be extremely proud of himself.

It looked like he had the upper hand this time.

Thinking about it this way, Mian Niang couldn't help but secretly rejoice in her heart. Pursing her lips, the corner of her mouth unconsciously curled up.

This smile, before he could stop smiling, was caught by Gu Heng. He wanted to speak, but he hesitated. Why, it was rare to see her smile like this. If he really said something, perhaps he would force her back.

How weak was she exactly? She was actually proud of such a small matter. She did not know that right now, she was like an ant in Gu Xin's hands, whether or not she would be able to escape would all be up to him.

Mian, you can be at ease, I didn't bring your brother to the Gu family just to pinch you, I sincerely want to arrange a future for him. He won't suffer any grievances or be in any danger in the Gu family, I just want him to gain some experience so that he can have a better future in the future.

His words were half true and half false, but his motive was not as pure as he said it to be.

Mian Niang turned around and glanced at him, obviously, she was not moved either. From the beginning to the end, this person had done things with a purpose, so how could she believe it?

However, it was useless fighting for it now.

Since she couldn't argue with anyone, why should she waste her time to explain things to them?

The donkey cart slowly walked down the mountain.

The trees on the mountain were also slowly falling back. It was already noon, and the creatures in the woods were becoming more greedy and cold as well. Only the chirping of cicadas could be heard.

Mian Niang looked at the leaves floating along with the breeze, and said solemnly: "Gu Xin, if you are truly doing this for the good of I am a brother, then don't give him any special care, let him train to the true level, and let him work hard with his own abilities."

"Why?" Gu Xin turned to look at Mian Niang. female mother was staring at him with eyes that seemed to be flowing with water.

"No reason. It's only because he has truly learned his ability that he can go further. It's all because of you. Sooner or later, he will even forget how to walk."

Letting her be selfish for once, she was powerless to stop Ah Gou from jumping into this trap. There was always a way for Ah Gou to learn how to survive in this trap.

When a mountain falls, a man can only rely on himself.

Gu Xin smiled. "I understand. Giving a person a fish is better than giving a person a fish. I understand such a simple logic."

His tone changed and he said, "It's just that Mubai, you have to think about it. I'm not an idiot, so that your brother can grow into an eagle and get out of my control. You, won't you get further and further away from me?"

"As you wish!"

Look, this layer of sham only took a while to finish and Mian Niang couldn't bear it anymore. She turned her head away and didn't want to talk to this kind of person who would go back on his word.

"You're angry just like that?"

Gu Xin stopped the carriage and walked in front of Mian Niang, lowering her head to look at him.

"You can't help but tease me?"

Mian Niang glared at him and turned his head away. She did not want to talk to him, but she did not expect him to not give up and change the direction, forcing her to face him face-to-face.

"You're just playing around with me, Mang, don't you see me as an outsider?"

Even though he had just been given a big supercilious look, he was still smiling as if he had picked up a treasure.

"That poor scholar must not know how beautiful you look when you're angry, and how lively your eyes are. Just looking at you makes one want to take a bite out of you!"

Mian Niang was so annoyed that he did not even look serious. She did not get out of the car, but directly stood up and walked to the front of the carriage.

"You sure are bold. What if you fall down?"

The red horse's reins were untied and thrown onto the ground. Mian Niang turned around and untied the donkey cart's reins from the tree. She didn't look at the people behind and rushed the horse down the mountain.

Gu Xin patted his horse and said: "Feiyun, what do we do? Are you angry? I seem to really be angry! "

Although he said that, he simply mounted the horse at a moderate pace and gave chase.

This time, they were smart enough to choose not to speak, and only followed quietly from the side. For a time, the only sounds that could be heard were the clatter of hooves and the sound of rolling wheels, accompanied by the sound of cicadas chirping in the forest.

Such an unusual silence made Mian Niang glance at him sideways.

Gu Han was in a good mood as he happily received this blow with his sharp eyes. He was enjoying this rare moment of peace between the two.

In the blink of an eye, the silhouette of the Plum Blossom Village appeared. Smoke rose from the chimneys of the houses on the west side of the village.

Mian Niang glanced at Gu Xin, and the man understood what he meant. Without taking a step forward, he sent Mian Niang back to the village, and only patted her neck after she could not see Mian Niang's figure: "Good brother, let's go back. We should properly teach Dalang Song how to use her smile when we get back."

When Mian Niang returned home, she looked out of the window and saw that the Elementary Scholar was frantically buttoning up his belt. She shook her head in puzzlement and went to the room next door.

He gave the money to the tofu hyacinth and sent the beans inside. When he came out again, the tofu hyacinth called for someone.

"What's wrong with the money? Is it too little?"

The copper coin was laid open on the table. tofu hyacinth counted it back and forth twice and finally confirmed that it was missing.

The account book in her heart was still open, she was short of a single cent and knew it all.

"Passing by the Tian Jia Wan, I left a few pieces for my mother's family."

Mian Niang put on her apron, placed both of her hands in front of her abdomen, and asked indifferently: "Can't I?"

tofu hyacinth frowned: "There is nothing wrong with that, your mother is also from My daughter, speaking of this, Wu Niang likes to eat my tofu the most, I don't know if she can eat the tofu that you made."

After changing his sex, Mian Niang still remembered the last time she went to the town, she calculated how she would not be able to spend a single cent of the money. Right now, she only needed to spend a few pieces of tofu, and that was it for Wu Niang.

If he couldn't figure it out, Mian Niang would stop thinking it over and turned to the kitchen to get some water to wash his hands and start a fire to cook.

The bean curd soup steamed with white vegetables was still fresh from last night. It was ready in a moment.

With the pot boiling, Mian Niang cleaned up tofu hyacinth's house with a cloth in one hand and a broom in the other. Just as she entered, she saw that tofu hyacinth was holding a wooden box and covered with a lid in a fluster.

"Why didn't you knock on the door?"

The wooden box was placed beside the pillow, and tofu hyacinth looked at Mian Niang warily.

"Who knows you're counting money."

Mian Niang walked in, swept the floor, wiped the wardrobe table, and wiped the window.

Of course, whether or not her mother-in-law was truly poor or not was still up for debate. The jewelry in the wooden box was neither gold nor jade. Although it wasn't much, it was still worth a lot.

With such a large amount of money, and even bringing her daughter along to exchange marriage, it was unknown whether it was Wu Niang who was more pitiful, or her, a woman who loved money as much as her life.

The days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the wedding day arrived.

Mian Niang woke up early to go sell tofu, while her son stayed in the house to read.

tofu hyacinth was leaning on a cane as she stood by the window. The new arrival was driving past his house, feeling sad and unsatisfied, if not for the argument between the two families a few days ago, she would have been sitting together with the other elders of Mei Family, discussing the marriage of the two children.

In the past, the tofu hyacinth liked to do things that revealed her face. Only by doing this could she feel that she was different from the others in the Mei Family, in this village. She was young, widowed, had raised a pair of bitter children, and had even raised an Elementary Scholar son.

Her son's health was getting better and better, and soon, he would be able to go back to the Academy to study, have a good relationship with the Young Master Gu, with Young Master working at the Gu household, her good days were right in front of her, why did she have to be so envious of others?

Just as he was thinking, someone came to the door.

"Is Master Mei here?"

tofu hyacinth looked over and saw a beautiful and charming young woman standing outside the courtyard behind Gu Wen who he had met before, both of them carrying things in their hands.
