Chapter 246 Xu Qianqian and Jiang Yuwei Compare Kindness
Ning Zixuan thought for a moment and then said:
"I haven't heard of him. There are many officials in the capital. Maybe he is an unknown minor official."
Jiang Yuwei nodded after hearing this and said to Yun Qing:
"Yunqing, you still have to catch a bus tomorrow, go back to sleep first, I'll ask Tiezhu to come out and replace you."
After hearing this, Yun Qing hurried back to the house. Jiang Yuwei and Ning Zixuan also entered the house. Then Jiang Yuwei winked at Tiezhu, indicating that he should go outside to keep watch.
Jiang Yuwei looked at Jia Yu, who was still immersed in sadness, and said:
"Jia Yu, I'm really sorry for today. We didn't ask clearly and caused a misunderstanding. Don't be angry. We're only staying here for one night. We'll leave at dawn, okay?"
Jia Yu looked at Jiang Yuwei, then at the group of people in the room, then waved his hand and said:
"It's okay, you guys go back to your room and sleep. I just find a place to lie down and spend the night when I get home."
Seeing that Jia Yu agreed, Jiang Yuwei hurriedly said to everyone:
"It's alright, everyone, take a rest, it will be dawn soon and we have to get up early to travel."
As she spoke, Jiang Yuwei also went into the house and went to sleep. She woke up at dawn. Seeing that nothing happened all night, she hurriedly called Tiezhu to go into the house and take a nap for a while. They could set off after everyone finished breakfast.
Then Jiang Yuwei took out some food from the space and put it in the inner room for Jia Yu, and said to Jia Yu:
"Thank you for letting us stay overnight. Now that Cao Kangcheng has gone to the capital, I'm sure no one in Qinghe County remembers this incident. Although you are the only one left, you must live well with your family and the villagers in your village. Perhaps one day this matter can be vindicated. I hope you can live to see that day."
After hearing what Jiang Yuwei said, Jia Yu's eyes were filled with tears and he said:
"I told you about my story last night, and it was like I finally got rid of the heavy stone in my heart. You are right, I will live well, and I must see the day when Cao Kangcheng, the dog official, is punished. Today I will pack up and go to the town to find a job. It is not a good idea to stay in the village like this."
Jiang Yuwei was very pleased to see that he was open-minded. Then she pointed to the pile of food in the house and said:
"Keep these. If you want to work, you have to eat. If you're worried about scaring others with your face, you can make a mask and wear it. That way you don't have to put your hair in front of you. You really look like a ghost at first glance."
Jia Yu was not angry after hearing what Jiang Yuwei said. He just scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled:
"I see. Thank you for telling me so much."
Seeing that he didn't think much about it, Jiang Yuwei smiled at Jia Yu and went to help Aunt Zhou and the others cook. When they finished cooking breakfast, Ning Wu and the others came back from feeding the cows. After tying up the ox cart, they went into the house to have breakfast.
After the group had finished their breakfast, Jiang Yuwei called Tiezhu up, handed him a bun and said:
"Will your mind be clearer if you take a nap? We have already had breakfast. You can eat this bun. I will let Ning Wu drive the car and you can sleep for a while in the car."
Tiezhu took the bun and said with a smile:
"Okay, Sister Yuwei, I'll follow your arrangements."
Ning Daya knew that Tiezhu hadn't slept all night, so she gave him some water out of concern.
"Brother Tiezhu, eat slowly and don't choke."
Tiezhu took the water handed to him by Ning Daya, drank it in one gulp, and then handed the bowl to Ning Daya, but accidentally touched Ning Daya's fingers. Tiezhu's face suddenly turned red, and he looked at Ning Daya with an awkward smile.
Seeing this, Ning Daya ran out with the bowl in her hand, looking shy.
Jiang Yuwei checked again to make sure nothing was left out. After everyone got into the car, she said goodbye to Jia Yu.
The group continued on their journey.
After walking for a whole morning, they came to a stream. Jiang Yuwei saw that this was a good place and shouted to everyone to stop the car and rest for a while. However, they had just set up the firewood rack and were preparing to make a fire to cook.
An old lady came over, looked around with her eyes, and then pulled Aunt Zhou, who was about her age, to ask,
"Hey, sisters, where are you all going?"
Aunt Zhou has always been a good talker. Seeing the woman asking, she didn't hide anything and spoke directly:
"We are going to the capital."
After hearing this, the woman looked around at the carriages and ox carts parked nearby and said with a smile:
"Hey, I see you guys have a lot of stuff with you. Are you planning to move your whole family?"
Aunt Zhou was washing wild vegetables by the river and nodded:
"Yes, yes, the whole family is moving there."
The woman laughed dryly a few times, then whispered in Aunt Zhou's ear:
"Haha, are those two carriages also with you? I wonder if the people in those carriages are richer than you who are riding in the ox-drawn carriages?"
Aunt Zhou felt something was wrong after hearing this, so she turned to look at the woman and said warily:
"Why are you asking this?"
Seeing Aunt Zhou's expression, the woman laughed and said:
"Hey, look at you, old sister, you still don't believe me. Am I just chatting away?"
As she spoke, the woman pointed downstream and continued:
"You see, my family lives in Xiaogouzi Village downstream of the river. If you go to the village and ask around, you will find out what kind of person I am. Everyone will say good things about me!"
Aunt Zhou glanced at the river downstream and saw that there was indeed a village. Then she turned to look at Granny He and said:
"Why would I ask you about you when I have nothing to do? I'm busy right now and don't have time to chat with you."
After saying this, Aunt Zhou no longer paid attention to Mrs. He who was still squatting by the river, and got up to cook wild vegetable soup.
Seeing that she could not get any information from Aunt Zhou, Mrs. He went straight to Xu Qianqian who was leaning against the carriage and looking at the scenery.
"Is this girl also going to the capital?"
Xu Qianqian raised her eyes and glanced at Mrs. He, and replied calmly:
"Yes what's the matter?"
Seeing this, Mrs. He smiled flatteringly and said:
"I think you have an extraordinary temperament, and look like a noble lady from the capital."
As she spoke, Mrs. He pointed at Sun and Chen Guixiang who were cooking and said:
"Those are the servants who serve you, right?"
Xu Qianqian, who originally didn't want to talk to Mrs. He, couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing these compliments:
"You are a very perceptive woman. I like to listen to what you say."
Seeing this, Mrs. He hurriedly said:
"I wonder if this noble lady could be kind enough to help me. I haven't had a full meal in a few days. Could you give me something to eat?"
After hearing this, Xu Qianqian didn't want to pay any more attention to Mrs. He. However, when she thought about how Jiang Yuwei gave Jia Yu two buns last night and was praised by Ning Chunlin, if she was kind enough to help Mrs. He today, Ning Chunlin would definitely look at her differently, right?
