C183 Do it when it's time to do it

The woman was in her late twenties. There was still black mud under her nails and her clothes looked new. However, there was a large stain on her chest. She had lost some of her dignity.

Mian Niang was really shocked. If not for the fact that the other party had poked her nose with her black, mud-like fingernails, she wouldn't have realized that the young couple was talking about them.

She took a step back, dodging the palpitating fingernail, and frowned as she explained, "We didn't push him, it was auntie who fell down."

Who knew that the woman wouldn't listen to the explanation and insisted that they were the ones who bullied the old lady. They wanted the two of them to pay for the compensation with silver coins, making it clear that they were going to defame the old lady.

Her voice was urgent, fast and sharp, stopping Mian Niang from speaking even a few times.

It was hard to say.

He was most afraid of meeting such unreasonable people.

With such skill, Mistress Cloud had already helped the old lady to her feet.

The grandma had just heard her daughter-in-law's voice. She struggled to stand up and walked over to them. She glanced at her daughter-in-law, then quickly lowered her head and mumbled, "Cough, cough …" Eldest daughter-in-law, you've misunderstood, these two children are good people, cough cough … If it wasn't for that child who helped me just now, my old bones would have been broken long ago. "

"Aiyo, my mom, I know you're soft-hearted and compassionate, but you're not this kind. Do you really think I didn't see anything? If they didn't shamelessly push you, would you have fallen? "You know what our family's situation is, if we break an arm or a leg like this, we won't have the money to show you."

Mistress Cloud was always being pressured by the old lady, so she was unable to answer back when she heard her words. Now that she had gotten out of the chair and heard her words, how could she bear it? She immediately leapt over and pointed at the young woman's nose and choked back, "Are you blind or deaf? Are your eyes and ears furnished or rented? You don't even believe the words of so many people, and yet you still want to beat us up after taking good care of our aunt with good intentions, don't you want to be shameless? "

In the past, when Mian Niang was bullied, she would always stick her neck out for him. Now that the two of them were together, she habitually pushed Mian Niang behind her and directly clashed against him.

When Mian Niang was pushed behind her, she was still a little dazed.

The woman was already infuriated and immediately jumped three feet into the air. "Alright, you little tramp, who are you calling shameless? Your eyes, ears, and ears are all for show, your entire body is just for show, even your pretty husband is just for show. You guys have done something shameful for yourselves, but you guys have the nerve to argue with me. "Today, I will just say this. If you don't have five taels of silver in front of me, don't even think about leaving."

She really treated the two of them as a couple, and had observed them from a distance. She was wearing the coarse clothes worn only by country people, and had two old hens and some tofu skin by her feet, so she didn't look like a rich person, especially that husband, not to mention he was short, black and dry. Just now, his wife had lightly pulled him behind her, and he had a pretty face, with red lips and white teeth. The saddlebags on his shoulders looked like they had something inside, but he didn't know if it was money.

She had seen many of these people, so she wasn't afraid of them causing any trouble.

In such a short amount of time, there were quite a few people surrounding them, but no one said anything. Everyone was just watching for the fun of it.

Mistress Cloud had not thought that she would meet such a person, a person who had publicly blackmailed her and had not been clean with his words, and she was immediately infuriated.

He said angrily, "Do you not make any sense at all? Did we just say that the aunt fell down on her own? Didn't this auntie already tell you what happened? Why didn't you believe her? "

"It really wasn't them who pushed me." The old lady's excuse seemed weak between the two of them.

"Aiyo, my mother, you're really my mother. Can't you just speak to outsiders?" Boss Lin, your old lady has been pushed aside by someone, yet you still don't care? "

The first half of Madam Lin's words were directed towards the old lady, while the second half was directed towards the man standing not far behind her. Soon enough, a burly man walked over, his hands tucked into his sleeves.

When he walked into the house and saw his own mom, he immediately felt that she had a nose, eyes and was even more impatient than his wife.

"So what? Mom, why aren't you selling your pickles obediently? What are you choking on here?"

His eyes landed on Mistress Yun and continued to look around. The young female mother had a delicate and pretty appearance, a clean temperament and a slim figure. Normally, she would not be picked out, but now that he stood next to her mother, he could immediately see the difference.

Seeing his dishonest gaze, Mian Niang's heart skipped a beat and walked out from behind Mistress Yun, putting her behind him.

She didn't expect that she and Mian Niang would drop everything, and for a moment, she wasn't used to it. She still subconsciously wanted to protect Mian Niang, but she had only moved a little, and was stopped by Mian Niang. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she finally remembered that Mian Niang was dressed as a man, so she naturally wasn't afraid of those messy eyes sizing him up.

But how could Mian Niang, who had a kind nature, be a match for these two?

No matter what, she couldn't let Mian Niang suffer a loss. Even if she hid behind Mian Niang, she could still protect her.

Lady Lin also noticed the look in her husband's eyes and became even more unhappy. She pushed him away and said snappily, "What, what are you saying, your old lady was already injured when she was pushed down by someone, and now you're bullying your wife? You're actually still in the mood to stroll around, do you really have to wait for the two of them to fight with your wife before you can care about it?" Even if that's all, your mother still wants to speak up for outsiders. "

"You pushed my mother?" Boss Lin was not a fool. After hearing her words, he looked at his mother a few times. He was sure that there was nothing wrong, but his wife wanted to extort some money, so he quickly added, "That won't do, hurry up and tell me, how much are you planning to pay?"

This man's gaze made others uncomfortable. Mian Niang knew in his heart that it was difficult to say anything clearly, but he couldn't not say it out loud. "It's not that we are pushing the aunt, it's just that we want to help.

She pointed at the woman and saw that the man's eyes were focused on Mistress Cloud. She leaned to the side and shielded Mistress Cloud even more tightly.

When the old lady saw that her son believed her daughter-in-law's words, she quickly explained, "This little bro is right. Boss, these two children really aren't bullying me. I slipped down on my own. They're just helping out. We can't speak without conscience."

Jiang Ting walked in a hurry, and brought his people all the way to the Tong Zhou Province without undressing himself. He suddenly thought of Mian Niang.

When he left, he did not greet them. Forget about everything else, he was afraid that Mian Niang was still worried about the assassination.

Furthermore, the skin contact from that day also required an explanation.

After weighing the situation in his heart, he was not in a hurry to hurry back and forth. After hiding the people, he was not afraid that this person would be hungry or have any problems if he did not eat or drink in the next three to four days. Although he would not kill the innocent, he would not show the slightest mercy when facing this kind of person who had the intention to kill him.

Thus, after confirming that everything was safe, he immediately changed his direction and returned to Tongzhou County.

The journey was fast, and he only rested for four hours at night, which was even faster than walking away with a person. When he returned to Tongzhou, it was already morning of the second day.

He had always been someone who didn't meddle in other people's business. Being in charge of Mian Niang's matters time and time again, he did indeed feel guilty about it, but he had never thought that he would actually meddle more in Mian Niang's affairs.

Now, he was actually starting to worry about Mian Niang, afraid that she would not be able to live a peaceful life.

In the past, he would never have done this even if it was for a single letter or a message from someone else.

Jiang Ting had never tried to figure out the reason behind his thoughts, but at the moment, his heart was only thinking of getting to the Tian Jia Wan quickly and tell Mian Niang that there was no need to worry about other assassins knocking on his door.

He still didn't know which village Mian Niang went to sell tofu today, and he would probably have to look for him for a while.

He quickened his pace as he thought about this. He was even more uninterested in the people three laps around him. However, he didn't expect to hear a familiar voice from the crowd.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask everyone." Mian Niang pointed at the few people at the stalls nearby.

Some, seeing that they were pointed out, immediately retreated into the crowd. There were two of them who could not bear to see this young couple being wronged and helped to prove it, but they did not want to be scolded back by Lady Lin. "See, see what? I see that you are all in one group, trying to bully our old lady, and this old lady is just saying things like that, it's no good, no one can do anything about it. "

She put her hands on her hips, emboldened by the arrival of her husband.

The old lady had repeatedly spoken, but had always been shouted back at by her. Boss Lin had already understood the entire truth, but just like his wife, he believed that the reason behind Mian Niang and his wife bullying the old lady was because they wanted to extort some money from her.

With the two of them acting shamelessly like this, the bystanders knew that they were not to be trifled with. The two stall owners who had testified previously also couldn't help but shut their mouths, as they really didn't want to provoke trouble.

If she had known earlier, they would not have helped the old lady out of kindness and caused her to fall. She looked at her palm that had been scraped raw and immediately felt wronged. However, what worried her more was that she did not know how to resolve this matter.

Outside of the group of people, Jiang Ting had already stopped in his tracks. He did not enter the group, and did not even hear everything that had happened, making a decision in his heart.

He had always liked cleanliness when settling matters, but this time, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do so.

Mian Niang looked at the couple, her expression no longer as gentle as before, and only coldly asked: "How do you want to settle this?"
