The old woman turned around and looked at the two of them, murmuring all the time: "That shouldn't be the case, that shouldn't be the case. They look like a couple who are inseparable, how can they be siblings?"
Tantaisi held Jiang Jingyu's hand: "Sister, are you feeling better?"
Jiang Jingyu nodded: "I'm fine, don't worry, I'll go change clothes first."
Hearing this, Tantaisi hurriedly handed her his baggage. Jiang Jingyu was about to ask the old woman to borrow her room, when the old woman came over.
"Girl, go to that house to change."
The old woman pointed to one of the rooms.
Jiang Jingyu smiled at the old woman: "Thank you, mother-in-law."
Feeling sticky and uncomfortable, Jiang Jingyu took the bundle and walked towards the room.
"Young man, go quickly. There is freshly heated hot water in the kitchen. The wooden bucket over there was just made by my old man this morning. Pour some hot water for the girl to wipe herself."
As someone who had been there, the old woman could understand Jiang Jingyu's discomfort at this time, and quickly ordered Tantaisi to get her water to wipe her body.
"Thank you, mother-in-law."
Tantaisi responded and hurriedly went to the kitchen according to the old woman's instructions.
Looking at the deft Tantai restaurant, the old woman smiled with satisfaction, and did not feel the slightest presumption about the arrival of the two.
After delivering the hot water to the room, Tantai Si came to the old woman who was weaving bamboo baskets.
"Mother-in-law, are you the only one at home?"
The old woman handed him a bench beside her and motioned for him to sit down, and explained: "My wife and I, and our children are doing business in the town. We like peace and quiet and have been living here."
"My wife has gone up the mountain to collect herbs. When he comes back, he can show the girl her body."
After hearing what Tantaisi called Jiang Jingyu, the old woman didn't dare to yell any more, for fear of causing another misunderstanding.
But she always had doubts in her heart, why did she see it wrong.
The old woman thought about it, but couldn't help but said: "Young man, is that girl just now your sister?"
Tantai Si nodded.
The old woman smiled coquettishly: "My old woman is blind and thought you were a young couple!"
Tantaisi then realized that the old woman had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "Mother-in-law, you have misunderstood. She is not my sister. We met on the road. She, she is..."
Tantaisi didn't think about how to explain their relationship to the old woman for a while, but the old woman had already understood everything.
She looked at Tantai Si with kind eyes and joked: "She's your sweetheart, right?"
Tantai Si's ears turned red, but he did not deny it: "Mother-in-law, please keep it a secret for me first."
The old woman laughed and said: "Let me tell you, my old woman has lived for most of her life, how could she be wrong about this matter? Don't worry, my mother-in-law will not tell that girl!"
Tantai Si scratched his head and smiled, thinking of what the old lady had just said, he quickly pulled down the money bag from his waist.
"Does my mother-in-law have brown sugar at home? I want to buy some brown sugar from my mother-in-law."
The old woman pretended to be slightly angry and pushed the money bag handed over by Tantai Restaurant: "You kid, why are you so outspoken? If you try to be polite to your mother-in-law, she will get angry!"
It wasn't until Tantai Si took the money bag back that the old lady returned to her kind and kind demeanor.
"The brown sugar is in the sugar jar in the kitchen. Go and make a bowl for the little girl. The bowl is in the cupboard below."
"Thank you, mother-in-law!"
Jiang Jingyu wiped her body and changed into clean clothes. When she opened the door to pour out the sewage, she found Tantaisi outside the door with brown sugar water.
The moment he saw her, Tantai Si showed two small tiger teeth.
"Sister, drink a bowl of brown sugar water."
Jiang Jingyu's surprise was relieved when he saw the old woman in the courtyard.
She took the brown sugar water and was about to put it back into the house when Tantai Si followed her in.
"Asi!"
By the time Jiang Jingyu wanted to stop him, Tantai Si had already picked up the basin of water dyed red.
"Sister, drink the sugar water first, and I'll do the rest!"
After Tantai Si finished speaking, he walked out with the wooden basin.
Jiang Jingyu:╯□╰
After a while, Tantaisi came back and picked up the clothes Jiang Jingyu put on the shelf without saying a word.
"Hey, Ah Si is back!"
"My mother-in-law said that my sister can't touch cold water now, so just leave the cleaning to A Si!"
After Tantai Si finished speaking, he took his clothes and ran out. Jiang Jingyu choked and almost spit out the brown sugar water he drank!
He, he, he, he actually wanted to wash her aunt's blood!
Brother Dong touched his chin with his hand and analyzed it carefully: "It seems that not only the uncle can love others, but the little brother is also pretty good~"
"Let's just say, Brother Dong's vision in choosing the male lead is really good."
After seeing Tantai Si squatting in the courtyard to wash her clothes through the window, Jiang Jingyu's lips showed an uncontrollable smile.
——
Qingyun Village, meeting hall.
The boss led a group of brothers and chased him all the way. They stopped and searched wherever they could hide. However, they searched all the way but could not find the two people in the portrait.
I was wasted on the road for two days, and finally I could only return to the village with a lot of anger.
bump--
The boss became more and more angry as he thought about it, and hit the table in front of him with his fist!
Just a little bit close to catching them!
The brothers sitting in front of the discussion table looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on the big boss on the tiger head chair.
"Master, what should we do now? Do we want to continue the investigation?"
"Check! Check hard!"
The headmaster's eyes widened in anger, and veins bulged on his forehead.
"Find a painter to make hundreds of copies of those two portraits and post them everywhere. Anyone who can provide clues will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver each. Even if they are chased to the ends of the earth, they will be brought to me!"
"yes!"
"Dad, what happened to make you so angry? Tell me who you want to investigate, and I will help you investigate. How about giving me a hundred taels of silver when the matter is completed?"
A young man walked in carelessly while chewing an apple.
The boss glared at the visitor fiercely and shouted angrily: "Get out! Why are you, a little brat, interrupting what the adults are saying!"
The young man shrugged, obviously not surprised by the boss's fiery temper.
"No wonder my mother wants to abandon you and live down the mountain. Who can stand your temper?"
Snapped--
The boss casually picked up the teacup at hand and threw it towards the young man. The young man dodged aside as if he had foreseen it.
"Dad, calm down, calm down!"
Seeing that the boss was serious, the young man hurriedly waved his hands to persuade him and hid behind one of the men.
"Uncle Tiger, who are you checking?"
The young man approached the bearded face and asked him curiously.
The bearded man took the portrait on the side and handed it to the young man: "Here, here are these two people."
The young man took the portrait and his eyes widened when he saw the person in the portrait.
"This, this, this, aren't these the two people I met two days ago?!"
