Originally, Jiang Meng planned to come back in the evening, but when he went out hunting, he was thinking about Hu Miaomiao all the time. It took him a long time to catch a little rabbit, so he came back early.
Along the way, he was thinking about Hu Miaomiao, not only afraid of her running around, but also afraid of her being alone. The two-hour journey was suddenly shortened to one hour.
After returning, Jiang Meng was very happy to see his brother whom he had not seen for a long time.
But when he saw his younger brother and Hu Miaomiao talking and laughing, like a couple, his smile disappeared in an instant.
He knew that he had no reason to be angry, but it was rare that he could not control his emotions.
"Is he angry?"
When Hu Miaomiao saw him walking away, instead of breathing a sigh of relief, she became even more nervous.
To be honest, Jiang Tao had never seen his eldest brother look so gloomy. Apart from being surprised, he also had some subtle guesses.
The two looked at each other and murmured a few words from time to time, as if they had known each other for a long time.
When Jiang Meng poked his head out of the kitchen, he happened to see this scene. He couldn't help but pause slightly, and there was a hint of self-deprecation on the corner of his mouth.
He was minding his own business, washing the pot and chopping vegetables, as usual.
Suddenly, Jiang Meng felt something in his heart. He raised his head and saw Hu Miaomiao's eyes.
"ah!"
Hu Miaomiao was caught peeping and quickly hid, her heart pounding.
Then, she poked her head around again, but Jiang Meng didn't seem to notice anything, so he slowly walked over.
"Hey, are you angry?"
Jiang Meng glanced at her lightly and continued to chop vegetables.
Hu Miaomiao hesitated to speak. She didn't understand what was wrong with the man, so she took a few steps closer and bravely asked, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
"Don't I have a name?"
"What?" His words were so out of context that Hu Miaomiao didn't react for a moment.
Jiang Meng stared at her intently, wanting to say something, but stopped.
Come to think of it, Jiang Meng has always been taciturn. Even his younger brother rarely speaks his mind.
"Brother Jiang Meng..."
The woman's voice was so delicate and soft that it made people's ears numb.
At this moment, Jiang Meng was confused.
Hu Miaomiao opened her wet eyes, carefully leaned on his arm, and said flatteringly: "Brother Jiang Meng, is it okay if I call you this?"
Jiang Meng's arms were rubbed intentionally or unintentionally by her soft balls. Jiang Meng's whole body froze, a hot feeling rushed to his head, and his ears turned red.
Jiang Meng muttered a vague "Hmm", the indifference in his eyes melted in an instant, and the corners of his mouth also curved slightly.
"You laughed, so you're not angry anymore, right?"
Hu Miaomiao was very happy, hugging his arm tightly and smiling sweetly.
"I'm not angry."
"You lied!" Hu Miaomiao stood on tiptoes and tried to look level with him, "You were angry just now."
After thinking about it, Hu Miaomiao asked again: "Is it because I didn't wash my clothes properly?"
Jiang Meng frowned and said in a deep voice, "I can't be at home all the time. If you can't take care of yourself, how can I trust you?"
Hu Miaomiao looked lonely and said with shame: "I will take care of myself..."
However, Hu Miaomiao felt a little embarrassed when she thought of what she had said.
"Brother Jiang Meng, I said I would commit myself to you, and I will definitely do it!"
Jiang Meng's throat tightened and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Do you know what it means to pledge yourself to me?"
"I know."
"You...really know?"
Her eyes were too clear, and she looked confused. Did she really know anything about men and women?
Hu Miaomiao was afraid of being driven away, so she immediately said: "I pledge myself to you. I will do whatever you ask me to do. I am yours."
Hu Miaomiao thought very simply. She ate his food and lived in his house, so she was not his.
"Brother Jiang Meng, I can do whatever you ask me to do, I will listen to you."
Let her do anything?
Jiang Meng's mouth went dry as he recalled these words.
As soon as she lowered her head, a beautiful little face came into view, and she even smiled with joy.
After Jiang Meng thought about it again and again, he said, "This is what you said. If you want to regret it in the future, it will be too late."
Hu Miaomiao beamed with joy and promised: "I will not go back on my word, I voluntarily gave my life to you."
Although this man is a hunter, tall and strong, and seems to be able to kill a tiger, he should be a good person.
She was so useless, but no man disliked her or chased her away. I was so touched.
"Are you tired? Let me cook lunch for you?"
Hu Miaomiao was about to grab the kitchen knife on the chopping board when Jiang Meng stopped him, "The knife is very heavy and will hurt you."
"Then let me help you light the fire?"
Jiang Meng still stopped him: "The fire is very hot and very choking."
Hu Miaomiao looked at it and wanted to wash the vegetables, but before her little hands touched the water, she was stopped again.
"There may be vegetable bugs that will scare you."
There's no need for this, there's no need for that, Hu Miaomiao doesn't know what he can do.
In fact, she felt that she was not that squeamish, and even if she didn't know how to do it, she could still learn it.
But Jiang Meng said, "You don't need to learn how to cook. The fumes are too heavy, and it's not safe to use a knife or fire."
He is the only man who can do such rough work.
When Jiang Meng took her in, he never thought about making her suffer.
"Then what should I do?" Hu Miaomiao was too embarrassed to just watch.
Jiang Meng moved a small stool, "You can just sit here."
Stay with me.
But these words were hidden deep in his heart.
Hu Miaomiao shook her head, leaned softly on his back, and muttered: "I don't want to sit down."
Jiang Meng froze immediately, as if he didn't expect her to be so intimate, and his heart was turned upside down.
However, Hu Miaomiao hadn't noticed the man's abnormality yet, and kept rubbing his back, like an itchy kitten, sighing in comfort.
"Brother Jiang Meng..."
Hu Miaomiao shouted his name over and over again without saying anything.
However, every time she shouted, Jiang Meng answered her every time without feeling bored at all.
It's like a little joke that makes people happy.
Since the small kitchen was not closed, when Jiang Tao approached, he happened to see the intimate scene between the two and was immediately stunned.
Jiang Meng felt something in his heart and turned around to see Jiang Tao outside the door.
Jiang Tao was slightly startled, and just when he opened his mouth slightly, he saw his elder brother turning his head, as if he didn't see him, and he felt even more uncomfortable.
He didn't mean to peek, and now he was neither advancing nor retreating, and he was caught in a dilemma.
However, Hu Miaomiao's delicate and sweet voice came out of the house, "Brother Jiang Meng, are you okay?"
Brother Jiang Meng, is this how she calls her eldest brother?
If she was calling herself, then she would have to call her brother Jiang Tao, right?
The next second, Jiang Tao was shocked by his own thoughts. He cursed himself for being shameless and ran away.
When Jiang Meng heard the noise, he couldn't help but look outside, and his mood suddenly sank to the bottom.
"What are you looking at?"
Hu Miaomiao looked along his line of sight, but didn't see anything.
She was still a child at heart, and when she wanted to go out and have a look, Jiang Meng held her hand.
"Don't go, there's nothing to see."
For some reason, Jiang Meng just didn't want the two of them to be alone.
At this moment, Jiang Meng was secretly shocked that he had hidden such deep thoughts.
What happened to him and why did he become unlike himself?
