The Cute Peasant Wife: Mian Niang

C186 I will be responsible for you

Mian Niang said again, "Ah?"

She could not blame him for this. The questions in her heart were asked one after another, just because the Mr. Jiang's every move today was weird.

"I don't like it."

The word "you" was too distant and polite, causing Jiang Ting to feel uncomfortable all over.

Mian Niang was just about to inquire further, when the owner sent two bowls of noodles.

Seeing the bowl of noodles in front of him, Mian Niang didn't care about the doubt in his heart and hurriedly brought the bowl over, "Um, Mr. Jiang, I'm not hungry, eat by yourself."

She quickly changed her words, but what she got in return was only a faint glance from Jiang Ting, "I'll be going to the northwest again in the future."

He didn't want to waste his breath, so he threw out the biggest temptation he could get.

When Mian Niang understood this, she also felt that this scene was familiar.

Coincidentally, not long ago, he used this matter to threaten his mother. He didn't expect that he would be threatened now.

Two bowls of noodles were equivalent to a bowl of wontons, but that was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that she had been thinking that this bowl of noodles would be left for Mistress Cloud to keep.

Forget it, it's just a few copper coins, so I'll spend more.

Thinking about this, she picked up the chopsticks from inside the chopsticks cage. Just as she was about to use it, Jiang Ting grabbed the chopsticks.

The man took out a pure white kernels s and wiped off the two pairs of chopsticks before handing them back to Mian Niang.

Then, under Mian Niang's astonished gaze, she calmly put the handkerchief back, picked up a pair of chopsticks, picked up a soy egg and placed it into her bowl. Afterwards, she pushed the plate containing the soy egg in front of Mian Niang.

However, Mian Niang just watched as he did not move. She did not expect this person, who looked like she loved and cared about grudges, to have such a meticulous time.

What made Mian Niang even more shocked was that the other party seemed to have a very cultured and refined appearance. Compared to the Scholar who prided herself on being gentle, and the real Young Master Gu Xin, she looked even more refined and refined.

Eating the noodles, there was actually no sound at all. Mian Niang turned around and looked at the rest of the people in the restaurant.

For the first time, a question emerged in Mian Niang's heart: Is he really only a hanger-on for the Prince Rong's Mansion?

There seemed to be something strange about this man. It was not as simple as he said it was as being a hanger-on.

Sensing her gaze, the man raised his head and looked at her, his eyes expressing doubt.

Mian Niang immediately shook her head, indicating that she was fine, and lowered her head to eat the noodles. Actually, she did not care about the other party's identity and loyalty to the Prince Rong's Mansion, but she should not have been able to ask about all of this.

Without a position and reason, Mian Niang knew that exploring the privacy of others was actually a very annoying thing.

Mian Niang's way of eating was not crude, and was definitely not as good as Jiang Ting's gentle appearance.

This was the first time that a young female mother had experienced the bone gap between two people. While feeling envious, he also felt a bit of indescribable jealousy.

How could anyone be so good-looking when eating?

She couldn't help but raise her head to take another look. The person before her didn't have an extraordinary appearance, a far cry from being tall and handsome. However, the aura exuding from his body made her feel a sense of nobility, making her unable to look straight at him.

He looked more like the scholar that Ago had once mentioned in his textbook.

Mian Niang lowered her head, her mind was once again filled with suspicions.

When the three bowls of noodles fell in front of Mian Niang, Mian Niang had already calmed down. After greeting the owner, she would ask for Mother Yun to come over later, and in addition to another bowl of noodles, she also had two soy eggs prepared for her, similarly for Mother Yun.

Jiang Ting slightly raised his eyebrows as he was once again certain in his heart that if he hadn't threatened her earlier, she wouldn't have eaten that bowl of noodles and that soy egg.

"Stupid."

He placed these words in his heart, unaware of the fact that his gaze towards Mian Niang had slowly turned from a spectator to a participant.

After eating, he could finally get down to business. It was only then that Mian Niang realised that this person had not spoken at all during the entire journey, and did not know if it was because he was well-mannered again.

"Mei Family has relocated to the capital and won't be able to come back. The Zheng Family has dispersed and the order to kill has been withdrawn. Those surnamed Zheng will not return to Tongzhou. Rest assured."

So many things, he only summed them up with a single sentence, and so many difficult details were all concealed by him.

Mian Niang felt bad, but she didn't know what to say.

Although Jiang Ting didn't like to speak, his observation skills were meticulous. With a sweep of his eyes, he understood what Mian Niang was hesitating over.

"I didn't do all of this for your family. It was all for the sake of carrying out my mission."

It was already rare for him to be able to talk about this with Mian Niang. No matter how much he talked about it, Mian Niang was not safe.

In fact, he did not need to worry about being overheard. But when Mian Niang moved her head closer, Jiang Ting also moved a little closer.

The distance between the two was extremely close, to the point where Jiang Ting could even feel the hot air that the female mother was exhaling. This made him feel uncomfortable, and he straightened his body without leaving a trace, pulling apart the distance between the two.

Mian Niang was reminded by his actions, she finally realised that something was amiss and retreated a little, the distance between the two of them returned to normal.

Jiang Ting felt a slight regret in his heart.

He clearly thought that something was wrong, but where did this regret come from?

Mian Niang did not suspect anything, but she was not relieved by the reason he gave her. She said with certainty: "The repeated attempts to save you are definitely not related to the mission. And even if this is your mission, you still helped us a lot. "

Mian Niang knew just how strong she was. If not for Jiang Ting, not only would she send out those assassins surnamed Zheng, even if it was Wu Niang's family, she might not have been able to escape.

These words could only be understood and not spoken. The two of them knew what they were talking about.

Jiang Ting opened his mouth, wanting to say that her brother had been implicated due to his mission, but he also felt that since he had already said that once, there was no need to say it again.

After he finished speaking, Mian Niang did not plan to sit down anymore. He took out some money from his backpack and was about to settle his debts when Jiang Ting took out five bowls of four soy eggs from his pocket and placed it in his boss's hands.

Just as Mian Niang was about to reject, Jiang Ting had already stood up and walked out. She could only give up and quickly put away his backpack and follow.

Jiang Ting untied the reins of the horse and turned around. He saw Mian Niang bringing the dagger in her hand over to him.

"Before, I only thought that it was an ordinary dagger. But today, I found out that it was a sharp weapon that could cut through metal like mud. It must be extremely valuable. Song Yi felt guilty and asked Mister to take it back."

She had only taken out her dagger to gamble and had wanted to see if she could scare the couple off. Who knew that she would cut off their car shaft?

Jiang Ting did not answer.

Mian Niang insisted: "I know what Sir is thinking, it's just that I really cannot accept this. Sir is outside, and there are many risks in what you do, so it's always better to keep this treasure by your side."

"Are you worried about me?" Jiang Ting asked.

Mian Niang looked at him in shock. Even though she felt that the crux of their discussion wasn't worrying, she still nodded.

She wasn't made of stone or wood. How could she not worry about the safety of a benefactor who had repeatedly saved her?

However, Jiang Ting's heart had a hint of complex emotions.

"I will never take back what I gave you!"

He told her to leave the dagger where it was.

"You'll use it more often than I will." For example, today's scene.

Mian Niang was unwilling to stop, facing his clear and cold gaze, she could not help but think of the words he had said. After being in contact with him a few times, she already knew that she was stubborn, and that she could not change his mind.

Jiang Ting originally wanted to lead the horse away, but when he looked down and saw the back of Mian Niang's neck, he couldn't help but be moved. He immediately said the words that had been pressing down on his heart the past few days, "Don't worry, I will be responsible for you."

This was the first time he spoke to a woman in such a way that was equivalent to betrothing a life. Halfway through his words, his face turned red, and just as he finished speaking, he left with his horse in tow, not daring to look at Mian Niang's expression.

Mian Niang was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered that in Mr. Jiang's heart, it was because of Ah'ge that she had said such words, she was afraid that he had thought too much into it, and immediately went to stop him, saying: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for being able to do this, I am already very satisfied."

Jiang Ting, "..." She really did need respect. What he had done was right. A woman's reputation was a big matter, how could he just ignore it. Those who dared to do so were the real husbands.

Jiang Ting seemed to have already seen the pleased smile on his parents' face as he nodded slightly, "No need for thanks, it's just a matter of duty anyway."

"You can't put it like that. Anyone who doesn't see you will have the responsibility like you. It can be seen that Mr. Jiang is the real husband."

Mian Niang's sincere praise made Jiang Ting suddenly feel embarrassed. He uncomfortably coughed and said to her: "If I said it was necessary, it is, and as for the rest, in the future, I will prepare a great gift to pay a visit to your mother. If you want your mother to beg for forgiveness, you should quickly go back and take a look at the stall right now, in case others come and disturb us again."

Mian Niang was confused again, why did she become like this, begging for forgiveness from her mother? Turns out that Mr. Jiang had always been brooding over Ah Ge's matter, she admired his character even more in her heart, and when she thought of Boss Lin, she immediately bade farewell to Jiang Ting, before hurrying back to replace Mistress Yun.

Jiang Ting was about to leave when he turned around and glanced at Mian Niang's figure that was getting further and further away. His heart stirred as he greeted the boss of the noodle store and tied his horse up in front of the entrance to the noodle house, then walked towards Mian Niang's direction. However, she did not go chase after Mian Niang.
