Jiang Wan was eating when Hua Xiao's tea talk fell into her ears, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.
She seemed to understand why Hua Xiao didn't settle down here. She probably didn't meet the male protagonist, the Sixth Prince, and now she's attracted to Lin Tingyu.
It seems that her actions still affected the plot, which is good.
Lin Tingyu frowned and didn't want to talk to Hua Xiao, but his good upbringing made him patient.
"How can the life-saving grace be offset by just a word of thanks? If it weren't for her, we might have turned into white bones in that mine.
Speaking of which, Flower Girl, you have never thanked your benefactor. "
When he said this, his eyes were full of disapproval, which made Hua Xiao feel guilty inexplicably.
"I……"
She explained naively, "The thing I'm grateful to my benefactor for is... I haven't figured out how to thank her yet."
Right, that is it.
Hua Xiao was extremely depressed. Even if the woman didn't come to save her, with her modern knowledge, she would be able to escape. It was only a matter of time.
So she didn't have any feelings for Jiang Wan, but this was what Lin Tingyu said, and she couldn't leave a bad impression on him.
After hesitating for a while, Hua Xiao walked over cautiously and said, "Miss Jiang, thank you very much for your life-saving grace."
"She is married."
Song Jiuyuan reminded her coldly that it was very impolite to call a married woman a girl.
Hua Xiao just came over, but she didn't know that there were all these twists and turns, so she changed her words sarcastically.
"Ms. Song."
"There's no need to say much more to say thank you. I understand it deeply."
Jiang Wan didn't want to get too entangled with her, and he didn't know if she had a damn heroine aura. Jiang Wan felt that she still needed to observe.
Hua Xiao blushed and glanced at Lin Tingyu not far away, probably saying, "Look, I've already said thank you."
Jiang Wan:......
"Ms. Song, I cannot repay the kindness of saving my life. I hope you will accept your small thoughts."
Lin Tingyu walked over in a few steps, and the entourage behind him was carrying a tray. On the tray were the five dishes and one soup he ordered at the inn.
Four meat and one vegetarian, it seems that he is very aware of Jiang Wan's current status, and they work in a low-key manner.
"Thanks!"
Jiang Wan responded with a smile, and a smile appeared on Lin Tingyu's pale, jade-like face.
He was extremely beautiful, probably because he had lost a lot of weight due to fatigue recently, and he looked like a skinny beauty.
But Jiang Wan knew that if this man had more flesh, he would be very handsome, and he would look like a humble young man, which would easily make people fall in love with him.
At least Jiang Wan had a good impression of him. Compared with Song Jiuyuan's cold face from time to time, Jiang Wan actually liked this one better.
The two of them looked at each other with smiles on their faces. Song Jiuyuan felt inexplicably irritated and couldn't help but make a sound.
"Eat quickly and rest early. We have to go on the road tomorrow."
"Then I won't disturb you all."
Lin Tingyu smiled gently and left with his entourage. Hua Xiao trotted after him in a hurry.
Song Jiuli couldn't help but sigh, "This young master is quite a good person."
“Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts.”
Song Jiuyuan replied venomously, leaving Song Jiuli speechless, "Brother, I don't seem to have offended you, right?"
This tone is so fierce.
Song Jiuyuan glanced at her without saying anything. He dropped his chopsticks on the fried pork with green pepper in front of him and felt an inexplicable feeling of depression in his heart.
When she faced that man, she smiled so happily. It seemed that she had never smiled like this at him since her exile.
"ah!!!"
Suddenly, a scream pierced the sky, and Jiang Wan was almost deafened.
When they were all attracted, they found out that the screaming person was Mrs. Song Er, and the reason for her screaming was Shen Qian, who was lying motionless on the table.
It turned out that Shen Qian was tortured too hard, beaten several times, and even had a fight with Mrs. Song.
He probably injured his internal organs, so he just lay lifeless on the table.
"what happened?"
Ren Bang put down his bowls and chopsticks and walked to Shen Qian in a few steps. Madam Song was so frightened that she hurriedly explained.
"We don't know either, she...she stopped talking when she came back and lay down on the table to rest.
We thought she was tired and ignored her, how could we know she..."
Mrs. Song was frightened. Shen Qian had just been called out by several officials, and she looked very bad when she came back.
But they all hated Shen Qian, and no one paid any attention to her, so naturally they didn't notice anything unusual about Shen Qian.
Hearing this, Ren Bang frowned, placed his fingertips next to Shen Qian's nose and breathed.
Sure enough, he was not breathing. He took out a small notebook from his sleeve and recorded Shen Qian's death.
"Just deal with it."
This kind of thing is common for officials. With Ren Bang's words, other officials directly carried Shen Qian out.
Everyone who saw this scene felt a little sad. Their identities were just thrown into the wilderness, and they couldn't even be buried in peace.
"Actually, Shen Qian is quite pitiful."
Song Jiuli sighed, facing the speechless eyes of her family members, she explained to herself:
"Of course, I'm not saying that she was right to do those things. You are right. Poor people must be hateful."
Although these officials were not good people, they had never abused women before. It was just that Shen Qian had gone too far and they were too angry.
"As long as you know it in your heart."
Song Jiuyuan glanced at Song Jiuli coldly, obviously very displeased with such a holy mother as her.
Mrs. Song rubbed the top of Song Jiuli's hair and said, "My girl, take care of yourself first."
Everyone was silent, but Jiang Wan was fine. After dinner, Ren Bang found out that there was a market not far away, and someone would be sent there to purchase supplies early tomorrow morning.
But this time it was different. Not much money was left on everyone's body, so there weren't many things that needed to be brought.
Chen Ce opened his mouth, intending to say something, but he couldn't help it, probably because he had no money.
Jiang Wan thought about the need for seeds in the space, and immediately became interested. So when Xiao Deng and Lao Zhang set off the next day, Jiang Wan quietly started to touch them.
"Jiang Wan."
Song Jiuyuan, who was sleeping next to Song Jiuchi, called Jiang Wan softly, and Jiang Wan paused slightly.
Turning around stiffly, she met Song Jiuyuan's see-through eyes, and she hurriedly explained.
"Don't worry, I won't run away. I'm just going to the market to buy some supplies."
"I know."
Song Jiuyuan's eyes were deep. If she wanted to run away, she didn't have to come back last time, so he believed her.
"This... just pawn it."
Song Jiuyuan opened his palm, and in the darkness Jiang Wan saw a jade pendant lying on his palm.
Although he couldn't see the quality due to his unclear vision, Jiang Wan had a gut feeling that this thing wasn't too bad. After all, it belonged to the villain.
"No, I still have some money on me."
She refused directly, but Song Jiuyuan also insisted, "Take it. It's getting cold, so buy some things to keep out the cold."
He handed the jade pendant to Jiang Wan, and Jiang Wan could only take it. The tentacles were warm and cool, and it was an excellent jade pendant.
