The Cute Peasant Wife: Mian Niang

C142 Gu Xins Reminiscence

The one who came was Gu Wu, he was sent here to deliver a letter by the young master.

He had been here for a while, but he had been standing at the entrance because Madame Song didn't allow him to enter the courtyard.

Although he was discontented, he endured the thought that this was Xiao Song's mother.

Seeing Mian Niang, Gu Wu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "How did you become like this?"

The female mother in front of her was too different from the first time she saw her.

He looked very skinny, as if he could float away for a long time with a single breath.

If the young master had seen this Mian Niang back then, would there still be so many things happening?

Gu Wu shook his head, and gave himself an uncertain answer.

Mian Niang didn't want to see him. In fact, she didn't want to see anyone related to Gu Xin.

When he saw them, he would think of his father and brother, and his disgust towards him would deepen.

With a cold face, she pulled the donkey cart into the courtyard. Gu Wu hurriedly stepped forward to stop her.

I am not here for any other reason. Senior Marquis is very ill, the Young Master cannot leave, and can only allow me to come and see you, if there is anything that you need, feel free to tell me.

As Gu Wu spoke, he took out a money pouch from his bosom and handed it over to Mian Niang.

In reality, because Senior Marquis was very ill, he thought of the fact that young master's marriage had not been decided yet. The family was currently making arrangements for young master's marriage, on one hand, to calm Senior Marquis's heart. On the other hand, he wanted to let this joyous event wash over him, so that Senior Marquis could quickly recover.

It was just that before he came, the Young Master had warned him repeatedly that this matter should not be revealed to Mian Niang.

But when Gu Wu saw Mian Niang's current appearance, he felt that the young master might have been overthinking things. This wife had never asked the young master about it, which showed that she still did not put the young master in her heart.

Mian Niang did not extend her hand to receive the silver, but only coldly said:

"No, I, Song Yi, have hands and feet, so I don't need to rely on others to live my life."

Gu Wu was continuously humiliated in front of the mother and daughter, and was also unhappy about it. However, he was still wary of the fact that this was the young master's heart, and was also Little Song's sister, so he endured his anger and did not say anything good to persuade her.

female mother, don't say that, your mother and younger brother all live by yourself. If you accept this money, you will no longer have to go out to sell tofu, and even more so, come back so late.

Mian Niang sneered: "So what if I took the money? My Abba can revive with death, and it's still I am a brother who can return immediately from Yongzhou."

Gu Wu was speechless.

"He can't do all of this, it would be useful just to take some money. We have hands and feet, we don't rely on him to live our lives."

The young master is also thinking of a way, he has already sent a letter to the young master of the Duan Clan, instructing him to take good care of Little Song. As for the rest, he still has to work slowly, and the young master's current life is not too good either.

"I do not understand the matters of the imperial court, the internal and external affairs of the house of the Marquis. I only know that Brother A has been targeted by the Prince Rong because of him."

Gu Wu could not understand why she would be so stubborn. Just as he was about to speak, the door suddenly opened. Under the sunset, Madame Song's face was as cold as ice.

"Mian Niang, come in. Why are you shouting at the door with that man? Is it because your reputation is not bad enough? "

Gu Wu was stunned, he never thought that the once amiable Madame Song would actually speak in such a sarcastic manner, and furthermore, Mian Niang listened to her mother's words and no longer spoke to him, rushing into the courtyard with her donkey cart.

Unloading the cart and taking the donkey meant that he didn't exist.

"Aunty .."

"I can't afford it. If little brother has the heart, then please go back and tell your young master that our small clan can't afford to offend a big figure like him. I hope he can put aside this yearning and let the rest of us live a peaceful life."

"Take the silver?"

"Please take it back, we do not dare to use it. We will lose our lives, Dalang's father will only teach you a lesson."

Gu Wu did not move. "I can't explain myself to Young Master like this!"

"Then if the three of us die in front of you, will you be able to properly report your loss?"

Madame Song's obstinacy made Gu Wu's heart turn cold.

Since the words had already been said, Gu Wu could only leave. However, when he thought of the young master's instructions, he became extremely terrified, and did not know how to explain it when he returned.

Recently, the young master had been busy with many things and was getting more and more angry, making it so that no one dared to provoke him.

It just happened again on this side.

Gu Wu took the horse and looked at the Song Family courtyard. Madame Song was reprimanding Mian Niang, her attitude was actually even worse than the Mei Family back then.

Gu Wu sighed, in his heart he was blaming the Young Master for his crimes.

He really did not dare imagine, if the Song Family found out that Mian Niang had been taken care of by her young master, what would happen?

Song Li naturally wouldn't curse her daughter to the point where she couldn't hear it, but she didn't like the sound of it either.

Even if she came back so late, it would be a crime. Mian Niang did not try to explain and could only bear it.

Dinner was ready.

Song Zhien packed up the tableware, carried out the dinner, and then secretly told Sis A that he had already burned the house, but the water had not yet been poured.

Mian Niang patted his head.

Mian Niang gave the money to sell the tofu to her mother and went back to her room to eat.

The lackey was right. Even his own room was on fire. The kang was hot. He leaned against the wall and felt warm.

Mian Niang squinted her eyes as she leaned against the wall of fire. She instantly felt that there was nothing left to feel wronged about, and just because of Little Brother, she wanted to keep this family up for good.

had originally been so hungry that his chest was close to his back, but after experiencing Gu Wu's matter, the food in the bowl had become hard to swallow.

After barely eating half a cornbread seed, she was still able to hold on. She repeatedly warned herself that she still needed to work.

However, even if he filled up two vats full of water, Mian Niang would not feel hungry.

He put down the pole and fed the donkey. Just as he was about to pick up the beans, he saw a bucket of beans that had already been picked.

Mian Niang glanced at the main house, and saw two silhouettes in the dim yellow oil lamp. It seemed that his mother was working on her needlework, and the sound of her younger brother's books could be heard.

Mian Niang turned around and soaked the beans in water and washed the gauze off to dry. The tofu plate used a pot of hot water to wash it clean.

After holding the soles of his shoes for a while, he felt too sleepy to open his eyes, so he turned off the light and went to sleep.

He opened his eyes and thought about how he had to deal with selling tofu in the past two days. He didn't know how he could think of a solution to this problem, but it was really not good for him to sell tofu like this every day.

Coincidentally, she wasn't a smart or smart person. Even when she fell asleep, she still hadn't thought of a good idea.

However, even though he didn't have a choice, he still didn't want to give up.

The next day, Mian Niang still got up to make tofu as usual.

After breakfast, she went back to selling tofu. However, this time, the sound of her selling tofu was even louder.

After experiencing the experiences of the previous two days, and encountering such troubles on the third day, Mian Niang was already able to calmly and peacefully sell her tofu.

The same thing happened on the fourth and fifth days.

He would leave early and return late every day. When would he come back after selling tofu?

After a long time, Mian Niang was actually able to find out which people did not have animosity towards him, and which people did not like him anymore.

After Gu Wu was rejected, he never came to their door again. Neither Mian Niang nor the Song Li mentioned this matter.

That incident seemed to have quietly passed by just like that, as if it had never happened.

However, what happened to Mian Niang in the other villages still more or less reached Tian Jia Wan.

Mian Niang didn't know it at first, she only felt that the people in the village had bought more tofu these past few days than she had two days.

Later, it was A Yun who came to find her at night and tentatively asked.

Out of concern, A Yun didn't have any malicious intent, she was only a little worried, and advised Mian Niang not to do this anymore.

Mian Niang shook her head: "What else can I do other than this. The bean curd has already been built, so all these things were bought with money. Furthermore, even if it's something else, it's the same.

A Yun sighed: "I think what you said makes sense, but I feel that it doesn't make sense, since when did days like this happen? Furthermore, even if you can endure it, selling me two plates of tofu everyday is not a lot, ah."

"There must be a good day."

The Mian Niang who said this, didn't have any hope in her heart.

"It would be great if you had the money. If you had the money, you could move to the city and do some small business there. No one is familiar with you, so no one will say anything."

Even if we move to the city, it does not mean that we will truly rid ourselves of these matters. Furthermore, how can we move to the city? Ah Pa will be buried here, and Ah Brother will return in a few years. Of course we have to stay here and watch over him, and wait for Ah Brother! "

Mian Niang's eyes were firm and persistent.

As long as it was for her family, the matters outside would not affect her at all.

A Yun's heart was slightly moved. He placed his hand on Mian Niang's shoulder and encouraged her. "Mn, do your job well. "Life will always be better."

In fact, this was just to comfort himself. Most people would repeat the same events year after year, day after day.

Every day I thought tomorrow would be better, but every day I worked as hard as I did yesterday, and then I lived the same life as the day before yesterday.

Mian Niang smiled. No matter what, if someone cared for her so much, it would make her heart warm.

Seeing that it was getting late, A Yun decided to leave. Before he left, he looked at Mian Niang as if she wanted to say something, but swallowed her words back several times.

Mian Niang could not bear to see her stuttering, so she asked gently: "What's wrong?"

"The date of my wedding has been set. Sixth day of next month."

"Well, that's good. Congratulations!"

Mian Niang smiled and offered her blessings.

"Mian Niang, next month, I will be marrying into the Plum Blossom Village!"
