Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

  Chapter 174 Heroes of Kindness

   After seeing them leave, Jiang Muyan slowly sat on the chair and muttered, "Tu Nan is too pitiful, I want to keep him, but he was brought out by Meng Tingwan, we can't keep him."

  Wang Tunan was weak, and after two days of tossing, he must have gotten angry. If he were to leave him in Liujiazhuang, the anger in his body would come out, wouldn't they take the blame for Meng Tingwan? Besides, this kid doesn't kiss him, and this Guo Jiangliu doesn't want to carry it. "Second aunt should have known yesterday that Tunan came out with Meng Tingwan. If she is worried, she will send someone here."

  Jiang Muyan nodded, lowered her head and said nothing. After Jiang Ling went out, she said to her sister, "Meng Tingwan... It wasn't like this before... People's hearts have become too fast..."

When Jiang Liu was still thinking about how to get rid of her sister, her sister had already cheered herself up and said with her fingers, "We can't reconcile with the Meng family anymore. We'd better not have contact with the Meng family in the future. Qin Chengbi and Liu Shen, who came with Ting Wan, have high identities, but Qin Chengbi is ignorant and inexperienced, and will definitely achieve nothing in the future. Liu Shen...not to mention. As for Gu Xiyu, although he is quite talented and famous in the academy, he His father is a concubine, and he has a bad reputation in Beijing, so these three are not good matches. The remaining Kong Tao, he avoided as far as he could."

   Jiang Liu couldn't help but wonder, "Then sister, what do you think is a good match?"

   Jiang Muyan said softly, "It depends on whether Chunhong's father can become a jinshi next year, and what kind of errands he can get after Chunhong."

   Therefore, in my sister's view, the first principle of a good match is "the right match", which is also a common concept of Da Zhou. There is some truth to this, but if you want to live a happy life, it is not enough to be in the right position. Jiang Liu used to be the most stupid and couldn't say more, but now she doesn't want to say more. She pulled her sister to stand up, "sister go, let's go for a lap."

  After Meng Ting left late, Jiang Ling went to the cross-yard to sit with the Guo family and his son for a while before getting up and rushing to the inn. When he arrived at the inn, Qin Chengbi had just finished eating and was thinking about what to do. Gu Xiyu suggested, "Let's go to Jiang Ling's house to play, shall we?"

   "What fun is there in a small farm! How about we go hunting in the mountains or play on the ice on the lake?" Qin Chengbi said excitedly.

  Jiang Ling reminded, "The lake at the foot of the mountain is not completely frozen, so people can't help stepping on it."

Qin Chengbi was quite regretful and said with a longing, "I heard from my grandfather that the Khitan people would hunt in winter in the coldest time. They first set up tents on the ice, and then cut out ice caves on the ice inside the tents to fish. It's fun to think about!"

  Kong Tao said quickly, "Yes, I really want to go ice fishing."

The thinly-clothed Meng Tingwan certainly didn't want to go to the lake to blow the cold wind. Before he could think of a countermeasure, he heard Jiang Ling say, "Even the lake ice under the green hills can't support people, but ice chisel fishing is still fine. Let's break the ice with big rocks. Come on, how about sitting on the shore and fishing?"

   "Okay!" Qin Chengbi immediately clapped his hands, "Just do it!"

   Ice fishing sounds fun, but for these lively teenagers, it’s a bit boring. Sitting by the lake for a while holding a fishing rod, Qin Chengbi couldn't sit still and said, "This is not fun, let's go hunting in the mountains, and go back to the city to play with my sister, otherwise she will make trouble again. "

   Qin Kui persuaded in a low voice, "The mountain is already frozen at this time, and it is very dangerous to enter the mountain. If the grandfather of the country knows..."

   Qin Chengbi puffed out his cheeks and was about to get angry when he heard the servant shout, "Look over there, son, someone has come out of the mountain!"

   Everyone turned their heads, and sure enough, in the distance, a man wrapped in a torn sheepskin walked down the hillside in a rather embarrassed manner.

   Qin Kui's eyes lit up, "Young master, look, that man is carrying a cage!"

   This is the person they are looking for, it's quite like that. Jiang Ling raised the corners of his mouth, "Let's go have a look?"

   "Let him come over!" Qin Chengbi ordered.

   The hunting man was terrified when he was stopped and brought over. Meng Tingwan smiled and said gently, "Don't be afraid, old man, I am not a bad person, did my old man just come back from hunting?"

  The man shook his head. When everyone was disappointed, he heard him cautiously say, "Master, I'm only twenty-nine this year, so I can't bear your title."

   "Hahaha—" Qin Chengbi clapped her legs and laughed, and everyone laughed along.

Meng Ting was angry at Liujiazhuang in the morning, and now he is ridiculed for not knowing people well, and his face is a little bit awkward, but he dare not say Qin Chengbi is rude, just staring at the sloppy hunter with a beard in front of him and said, " How can you be so vicissitudes since you are not yet in your thirties?"

"My father went into the mountains to cut firewood last year and fell down the mountain. He was paralyzed on the kang and couldn't move the nest. My mother fell ill a few days ago. I really couldn't do anything, so I went into the mountains to hunt, thinking about hunting wild boars or deer to exchange money for them. My mother went to see a doctor and let the second old man have a year of food and clothing. But I'm useless." The man raised his sleeves and wiped his face, ashamed and sad, "I went into the mountains and lay in the mountain nest for three days, and only hunted these little things. Don't talk about buying food. , it's not enough to give my mother the medicine..."

   So miserable? Liu Shen, who had been silent for a while, asked softly, "The gadgets are not necessarily worthless, what did the uncle hunt?"

   "Yeah, let me have a look, if there is something pleasing to the eye, I will buy it!" Qin Chengbi didn't smile anymore.

  The man put down the big basket behind him and said embarrassedly, "There are only five birds, three hares, and two squirrels. These are not worth anything, maybe this little fox is worth a few more..."

   "Fox, alive?" Qin Chengbi was interested and leaned over to see. Qin Kui quickly stopped him, "Young Master, be careful."

The man took out the small cages from the big back basket, and opened the black cloth covering the cages to show them, "I can't use bows and arrows, but only under the cage, so the ones I caught are all alive. I originally wanted to go to the city and go to Nanshi. Try your luck, these birds are pretty good looking..."

   Hearing him say the trap, Gu Xiyu felt a pain in his ankle. Could it be that the trap he caught last time was this guy? He said coldly, "There are so many beautiful birds, they are really worthless."

   The man lowered his head and whispered, "I know, as long as you give me money, I will buy it. My parents are still hungry at home, waiting for me to buy food and medicine... The young masters don't like it, then I..."

   Before the man could finish speaking, Qin Chengbi pointed at the cage containing the black-mouthed and black-clawed little fox, "This gentleman wants it, you can ask for a price!"

   Hope suddenly ignited in the man's eyes, "Young master has a lot of knowledge at first glance. You are more knowledgeable than the villain. You can pay as much as you say, and the villain will never bargain!"

   Qin Kui secretly said that it was not good. Just as he was about to stop him, he heard his son say, "Five hundred taels!"

   "Plop!" The man knelt down on his knees and kowtowed to Qin Chengbi, "Thank you, my son, my son! Your son is benevolent and righteous, I have met a benevolent hero today!"

   Being praised as a hero, Qin Chengbi was very happy, "I want those birds too, one hundred taels."

  The man hurriedly shook his head, "You don't need to pay for these five birds, you can play with them if you like."

   Qin Chengbi glared, "This young master asks you to take it and you can take it, if you don't want it, don't take it if you don't want it!"

  The man was stunned for a while, and then kowtowed again.

   Liu Shen saw this and said, "A gentleman has the beauty of an adult, so sell those three hares to me, how about two hundred taels of silver?"

   "Okay, okay..." The man began to wipe his tears.

   After this, there were only two squirrels left. Jiang Ling glanced at Meng Tingwan deliberately, "The remaining two squirrels, I..."

   Meng Tingwan was not willing to be robbed of the limelight by Jiang Ling, and immediately said, "I want two squirrels, one hundred taels!"
