C148 Charming Mothers Glancing Eyes
Mian Niang didn't make the beans into tofu tonight. She went to the city to sell the tofu skin to buy the brine, and Madame Song gave her 10 copper coins.
"Buy a piece of cloth. hyposome's school bag is no longer sufficient, make him a new one. When buying it, pick it carefully.
As she spoke, she sighed in her heart. Originally, she could have her youngest son help her pass the message, but in the end, she was still worried, afraid that the child wouldn't understand.
When she looked at Mian Niang's clothes, she saw that she was skinny and small. His originally delicate and pretty face had suddenly lost some of its gentleness and beauty after being covered by her honey-colored skin.
Maybe he had truly wronged her?
No, she wasn't feeling wronged. Everything that had happened in this family was all because of her. If it wasn't for her, her family wouldn't have turned into this right now. What was there for her to feel wronged about?
Thinking of this, his originally active mind turned cold and hard once more.
She felt that it was only right for her daughter to suffer a little bit more, as it was not even worth the little bit that her Ah Gou Ah Pa had to endure.
Every time Madame Song Li saw Mian Niang, her face would always be black, so Mian Niang did not know about the changes in her heart.
The few aunties in the village were also going to the city, knowing that she was going, they agreed to take her convenient car, and Mian Niang did not reject.
As long as she could help, she would not shirk her responsibility. As long as the tofu hyacinth's branch members lived their lives, they would always want to have the upper hand and take advantage of everything.
Others thought she was a widow, so they didn't bother with her.
Mian Niang, on the other hand, thought of the complete opposite of tofu hyacinth. No one will owe you anything, even if your life is not well, you don't need to live on someone else's side.
Since they helped you, you should keep them in your heart.
These principles were all taught to the siblings by Song Youfu since he was young. Now that Song Youfu was no longer around, Mian Niang could finally remember the things that his father had said in the past, over and over again.
Her father's voice and smile seemed to grow clearer in her mind.
When women came together, there was always endless chattering.
The Zhang Clan and the Li Clan were short. The children of their own clan were always better than those of other families. Men of other families would always have more benefits than their own men.
Mian Niang just listened and did not say anything. She had been walking around the streets all day and knew a lot of things, but no matter how these people asked her, she would not say it.
It was probably because he had been by himself for too long, but he felt better looking at these people talking and laughing.
After arriving at the city and agreeing on a time and place to return, they went back to do their own things.
He had saved more than a month's worth of tofu skin, sold more than 40 copper coins, and paid a tax of 5 copper coins. It could not be said to be a lot, but looking at the money in his pocket, Mian Niang still felt at ease.
The place where they bought the brine was the general store that tofu hyacinth used to buy when they were making tofu.
Mian Niang had come here twice, and later on, her family started to make tofu, which was also bought with the help of the Captain.
When Mian Niang entered the room today, the other party did not recognise her at all. It was just that the brine that was brought out at the start was not the kind of brine that was commonly used in homes.
She was neither angry nor annoyed. So she had encountered this kind of situation the first time she came, and it even explained that it was the Plum Blossom Village who sent her over, so the other party could bring out the normal good quality brine water.
"Our family has been using your brine. I don't want that, you know."
Mian Niang reminded the other party.
Seeing her like this, the boss knew that she was sent over by a regular customer, and immediately understood. He took out the good halogen water he usually sold, and gave it to Mian Niang.
Just this little bit of brine cost him half of it. As for the rest of the money, Mian Niang bought some lamp oil and walked out of the shop. He turned into a cloth shop.
When the shop assistant at the counter saw someone enter, he immediately greeted them. When he saw Mian Niang's attire, his enthusiasm changed, and he said lazily: "I can look, but I can't touch it. If it's dirty, you can't afford to pay."
This was the first time Mian Niang entered this kind of place, and her eyes were filled with all kinds of colorful cloth. Even without the help of the shop assistant, she did not dare to touch it, and the shop assistant was right.
Actually, it wasn't much to watch. With her current situation, not to mention having no money, even if she had, it would be impossible for her to go out wearing such clothes to make a name for herself.
took a step forward, and was about to ask the servant. However, just as he was about to open his mouth, someone came in, and the assistant was dressed completely differently from Mian Niang, as one was in the sky while the other was on the ground. The attendant quickly went to greet the new customer.
Mian Niang turned her head, but accidentally met the gaze of the person who just arrived.
The person who came was none other than Wu Niang, whom she had not seen for a long time. This person was dressed even more extravagantly, and had even more gorgeous clothes.
Mian Niang stared straight at him, and thought of how Ah'ge had protected her in every possible way in the court, but she had completely ignored the relationship between husband and wife, and had even threatened people with Ah'di later on.
She told her little brother not to keep thinking about revenge, but these grudges, he had never forgotten. From start to finish, she had always remembered these enemies in her heart.
Gu Xin, Xiao Zongxian, Mei Wu, Mehanlin, tofu hyacinth.
She couldn't take revenge now, but that didn't mean she would never be able to do so. One day, she would make these people pay the price for their actions.
The other party turned his head away in disgust and annoyance, as if he did not recognize her at all. On the other hand, it was the maid beside her that drove her away.
"Screw off! Where did this stinky brat come from? What are you looking at? Our lady is also someone you can look at. Be careful not to dig out that pair of your eyeballs."
The big customer didn't want to continue, so the cloth shop assistant quickly followed and heckled him out.
Wu Niang looked at her and noticed that although she was wearing shabby clothes, she was actually pretty. She suddenly had the thought of teasing her, and immediately blinked her eyes and gave her a coquettish look.
Not only would Mian Niang not understand, even if she did, he would not give her any response.
Since she was chased away, she wouldn't continue to stay here unscathed. Furthermore, she didn't want to stay under the same roof as this woman at all.
She turned around and left, leaving behind Wu Niang who did not manage to measure her charm in her body, and turned around rather anxiously.
In the end, Mian Niang did not manage to buy the cloth from the shop, but bought it from an old lady pushing a small cart.
The only problem was that the color was not very good. It was an ash-gray color, so it was not enough to make clothes or pants. It was also a waste to make shoes, so it could never be sold.
Mian Niang looked at it and felt that it was appropriate to make a bag for Song Zhien.
When Mian Niang drove the donkey cart past the shop again, she saw that Wu Niang was still inside, but this time, she was no longer accompanied by just the servant, but a man. That man had his head lowered, and his appearance could no longer be seen clearly, and the two of them looked extremely intimate, but Mian Niang was sure that this was not the Prince Rong from before.
Mian Niang shook her head doubtfully, she did not know what was going on, and kept the matter at the bottom of her heart.
He took the carriage to the appointed place with his aunts.
Those people had not come back yet, so she was not in a hurry. She held onto the donkey cart and waited on the spot, feeling cold, then stomped her feet and rubbed her hands. She waited for a long time before she saw them and ran over to help them carry the things.
The few of them knew that she had been waiting here for such a long time. They immediately felt very embarrassed and kept apologizing.
Mian Niang shook her head, indicating that she didn't mind.
He let them sit, then drove the car back.
In his mind, he couldn't help but recall the scene he saw at the fabric shop. He was still astonished.
The rest of the people in the car could not help but chatter on and on about what they had seen on the street.
Mian Niang, I heard that the student of the Mei Family cannot go to the Academy, and did not participate in this year's Autumn Festival. It is said that she had such a shameful illness, that people look down upon him in the Academy, and did not have the face to attend the Autumn School.
The person beside her prodded her, not allowing her to say anything, before she took him back.
We, Mian Niang, have yet to do anything, and we were already driven back in confusion. Now, how about it, when it comes to retribution, I will not let them say anything, I just hope that they all do not have a good side, then, an Elementary Scholar, in this life, will not be able to become a real man. "
They were all people in their thirties and forties. They were not as shy as those girls, so naturally, they did not have any scruples when they spoke.
"Is that so?" Mian Niang's expression was calm, to the point where it was impossible to tell whether she was bothered or not.
This made the aunt who spoke discouraged, but she still said: "I heard that Wu Niang was dumped by someone, and is currently living in that house. She eats all the money in the mountain, and every day, she even loses a lot of money.
Even Wu Niang did not dare to tell others that she was the one who was raised by the Prince Rong. Back then, when the tofu hyacinth was moving away, she had accidentally said that she did not know the truth and even found an excuse to go back and change her statement, saying that she had made a slip of the tongue and that the person Wu Niang was following was a big shot, but that it had nothing to do with the Prince Rong.
Mian Niang naturally did not know of these internal matters, but when she heard the half-information that his aunt had given him, she did not think of correcting her.
If people in the village knew that the one who had enmity with the Song Family was the Prince Rong, or a relative of the royal family, they might not even be able to cause any trouble. Perhaps the Song Family could even continue to stay in the Tian Jia Wan.
With such thoughts in his mind, Li Chang didn't even mention anything to his wife, let alone anyone else.
