Chapter 339 Slightly fishy
Just because she was not sold to Pingkangfang to be a chicken and duck, she wanted to murder her. Although Xiao Jiang was a coward, she was not a goldfish. Her memory was not that bad. If she got the chance, she would take revenge!
"If there's anything, have Old Fan come find me." Cui Bianxu carefully held her soft arm and examined the hidden arrow, like an old father worried about his daughter on her first day of school. "It needs to be re-poisoned. When Old Fan comes back later, have him do it for you. Don't do it yourself, or you might get hurt."
The two of them were very close to each other and there was no one else around. If it were any other time, Jiang Shangxian would have definitely thought of a way to take advantage of him, but today he really didn't have the mind to do so - he just absentmindedly touched Cui Bianxu's hard forearm twice.
It’s not that she is obsessed with taking advantage of others, but she is so used to it that it is very easy for her to do so. In fact, her little brain is working very fast!
"Wu Sanniang must have a purpose for doing this. She came back even though she knew Chang'an was unsafe. I'm afraid there's something she has to do in Chang'an."
Cui Bianxu had finished checking one side and started to check the other: "She will soon find out that Yanyin is missing. The Dali Temple will suppress the news. If she can't find Yanyin, she will not dare to act rashly."
Yan Yin should be the killing weapon she prepared. According to Ning Yuye's judgment, Yan Yin should be able to relieve the pain for a few days after eating human hearts. However, according to the time of Xing Yun's death, it is almost time for Yan Yin to eat again. Wu Sanniang must take Yan Yin to eat human hearts.
When she found out...
"wrong."
Jiang Shangxian retracted his dirty hands and looked up at him: "She won't have time to pay attention to me until she finishes what she wants to do."
Judging from Wu Sanniang's actions, she had already tried to take advantage of the opportunity to plot against her during the process, but failed. So would she make the same mistake a second time?
Unless there is a more reliable way to take revenge on her, I will only come to cause trouble for her after finishing everything and before leaving.
Until then, she should be safe.
However, there is an old saying that goes, "I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves thinking about stealing." There are only thieves who can steal for a thousand days, but no one can guard against thieves for a thousand days.
They now don't even know what Wu Sanniang is going to do, where she is, or what she looks like now. They live in fear every day, and life is not easy.
Cui Bianxu pursed his lips, and the tips of his ears turned slightly red. When he heard the sound of horse hooves, he turned sideways uncomfortably and quickly grabbed her head - his face became even redder.
"To avoid alerting the enemy, this matter can only be carried out secretly. I will recall all the guards of the Cui family. I am afraid it will be too late for the moment. Wang Mingqian has many people under his command, so I will talk to him about this matter."
The girl's soft and fine hair made his palms numb - it would be better to get married early and have a stable life.
Seeing Lao Fan and the other two getting closer, Jiang Shangxian knew he was going back to the Dali Temple. He moved his head uncomfortably, suppressing the urge to immediately find a mirror to check if his hairstyle was still in good condition. He spoke faster, "If there are really no clues, we might as well lure them out."
Where did Cui Yi learn this bad habit? Who taught him to touch a girl's head like this?
Damn it, his hair must have been messed up by him!
"Well, tell Erlang and Zhenying not to set up stalls in the West Market these days. Didn't Zhenying say that she wanted to find a shop? I will ask someone to look for one. It's a good time for her to take a break and prepare to open a shop." Xiao Cui, who touched his head, was secretly delighted in his heart, not realizing that he had messed up someone's hairstyle.
Instead, he felt even more inclined to love his future wife's family as well. Cui Yi also wanted to protect her family as well!
The two people who often had different ideas in this regard did not notice anything wrong with the other. Xiao Jiang nodded and highly approved of this suggestion. He planned to stay at home with his younger brothers and sisters to think about what food to sell in their shop in the next few days, so that they would not have to go out to earn money.
"Jiulang! Someone is back!"
"Kuro!"
Cui Bianxu didn't look back, and finally reminded her, "Grandma, don't go to Yong'anfang to pick up vegetables these days. If you need any vegetables, just let Old Fan go."
"Well, don't worry, just be careful yourself."
That night, the autumn weather was clear and cool, and the Jiang family sat together in a meeting, staying up late and holding candles.
There were supposed to be six people, and there were actually six people... and one dog.
I have been eating a lot of fish recently, so the lamp oil I used today is fish oil. It’s not very fishy, just slightly fishy, about 40%.
More than a year later, Jiang Shangxian looked at her 'new' family under the dim light and felt a dreamlike feeling in her heart again - she had been in this era for so long without realizing it.
These people in front of her have become her real family as she goes through the daily routine of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
"For no reason, you told Erlang not to go to the West Market to sell braised mutton. Then all the mutton we sent here today would have been wasted, wouldn't it?" Jiang's mother grumbled in objection.
Her way of thinking was very simple. When Jiang Shangxian told them not to sell the braised mutton, the first thing she thought of was the mutton delivered today, which was still stewing on the stove. If it couldn't be sold, even though the weather was cold now, it would only be kept for two days at most, and she wouldn't be able to finish it even if she ate it all at home!
Old Madam Xia didn't understand why she suddenly told the two children not to go to the West Market to do business. "But what do you want them to do?"
After living in peace for too long, no one thinks of the worst. Just like the number of deaths in traffic accidents nationwide is at least 60,000 every year, can those people know in advance that they are about to die?
For the Jiang family today, the worst thing that could happen is that the marriage with the Cui family would go wrong.
Seeing that the reply from Qinghe is about to come, the good day is just around the corner. Today, the Cui family has added two more people, which shows that they still value Jiang Shangxian very much. That shouldn’t be the case, right?
Jiang Shangxian licked her lips. She remembered the crunchy garlic smell she had when she ate it at night. Now it smelled really delicious. She didn't know what to say.
Regarding the disappearance of May Lady, she did not trust the Jiang family at the time and always felt alienated. She was also afraid that if she told Jiang's mother, she would not be allowed to work as a laborer and it would affect her ability to complete the task, so she lied.
Now that she can no longer hide it and wants to tell it, she is a little timid.
"That's right. Didn't a case happen in May last year..." If you stick your head out, you will be stabbed in the back. Jiang Shangxian spoke very quickly, fearing that Jiang's mother would catch her and scold him.
It is better to say it all at once and get scolded than to get scolded several times for saying it.
Old Madam Xia and Jiang's mother, who were originally leisurely doing needlework adhering to the highest principle of not wasting lamp oil, felt more and more that something was wrong as they listened. In the end, they simply put down everything in their hands and straightened their backs, with solemn expressions on their faces.
After Jiang Shangxian finished speaking, Jiang's mother, whose face was already red and veins were bulging, slapped the table hard, shaking the oil lamp. However, Yingzi, who was still confused, quickly held it up and avoided extravagance and waste.
